Had Policy.

We think it bad policy for the
citizens Of Southern Utah to annu-
ally pay ont hundreds of dollars in
cash, to parties who come from
Salt Lake City and elsewhere, to
repair our stoves, sewing machines,
organs, &C., when we have SO many
ingenious persons In our midst,
who, with proper instruction and a
little practical experience, would
soon become proficient in the abov
branches Of work.
BY home labor being, employed
our money would be retained at
home to be handled in other
branches of business, as it passes
from one to another.
Queen Victoria took pains to see
that her children learned some good
trade or professional branch of
business; and if the Queen of Eng
land could see that such q course
was advantageous to her and her
children, how much more SO, it ap-
pears to us, it would be for our
young men to learn trades to pre-
pare themselves for future useful
ness.
We should take every step posi-
BILE to become self-sustaining and
shut off many of the heavy drains
of cash that is constantly flowing
out of our country.
Notwithstanding our desire to
see our HOME TALENT thus employ
ed, foreign laborers will continue
to do the work and carry off the
money, until our home workmen
will strike out and make them
selves proficient for the emergency

Why the useless legislation for
the new State of Utah? Is it to
give friends position?
We say great honor to Governor
Wells for his vetoe messages, nip
ing in the bud such reel-footed, leg
islation as some that has been pres
ented for his signature. We hope
he will continue the good work and
be on the alert to knock out all USE
less bills that may be presented to
him. What is needed is to revise
our Territorial statutes and make
them applicable for the state, and
cut out all superfiuous clauses and
boil the whole down to make it a
multum In parvo.

spring we called division spring"
The Mormon party followed
brother Rich, and we had not gone
far when we came to good grass
and plenty of water. We halted
and took lunch, after which we
travelled few miles and camped
where we had plenty of water and
grass. Next day we followed a
creek through a narrow canyon of
solid rocks on each side and the
echo was so great that the bursting
Of a percussion cap was like the
firing of rifle, in the open country.
November Is. Soon after leav-
ing camp, while still following
down the creek, we saw a smoke
and cattle feeding, and men herd
ing them. They told us that Cap
tain Hunt was just below us with
train of wagon, and we lost no
time in getting to where they were
camped, where we found to our
great JOY, that it was Mayor Hunt,
sure enough, in camp, at the cross
ing Of the Muddy, at the edge of a
fifty miles drive, before reaching
the Los Vegas, the next water
that we would reach. Captain
Hunt told us that one hundred
wagons of his train had left his
Company to follow on our trail.
The odom eter and our mission
aries were also with hunt.

More Veterans.

In the Semi Weekly Deseret
News of January FL, 1896, I see
my article, which was published
in a late number of the UNION, In
regard to aged Veterans, published
in full. The editor Of the Ne,os
says II mistake the enquiry Of
correspondent for a banter.
/ thank the editor for the infor-
nation and [ stand corrected, as I
certainly wish to be correct and to
put everything in it's true light.
Although I am apt to put in
little light reading, yet truth is nay
motto.
Now Mr.. editor, to be in earnest,
[ will say we once lived in Salt
Lake City ten years, and our
associations there with many of
you, who still remain there, was Of
the most agreeable and pleasant
We left there in 1868, and our
many visits in later years and re-
newal of our friendship with many
of you has been Of that character
that we had cause to rejoice, and
say, Eyes, brethren and sisters,
we are not only willing but pleased
to say you are our equal in good
specimens of humanity, as also in
deeds of love and kindness, and
we are proud of your association
and we hope to continue to 50 live
that we may be worthy to associate
with the good, the virtuous and true.
Now the question is asked, els
there any more veterans? ooh
yes, we have some more. We have
sister living here, who will be go
years old in March. Her name is
Verna Bryner, her husband dying
in 1862, she has lived, most Of
the time, with her children.
Her posterity - children, grand
and great grand children
now living number over 100. She
came with the first company of
Latter-day Saints that came from
Switzerland. She is now quite fee
BILE. She never learned the english
language, but in her own tongue, I
am informed, she bears a pleasing
testimony to the truth of the Cos
pei of Jesus Christ.

If the country lying Immediately

Reaching the mouth Of canyon,
we found water quite plentiful,
and gave the name Of providence
Greek" to this place. That day
men, horses and mules gave out.
Canteens were filled and men
went to meet their give-out COM
panions. The next day We laid
over and rested.
November 10. This day we
moved On and travelled up and
down hill all day, the country be-
ing very unlevel. One animal
gave out and was left. The next
day we travelled all day without
finding any water.
November IL. To-day about ten
a. m. it began to rain, and in a
short time there was an abundance
of water for all, as the rain came
down in torrents and pools of water
were to be seen in many directions.
Finally we halted and camped,
but before night it cleared up and
the sun shone bright. CAPTAIN
Smith, the gentle, remarked to
brother Rich, that it was plain to
him that "the finger of the Lord
was in this rain"
November IA. Camp moved a
short distance, and we came across
a small spring, and, as the pools
of water had all disappeared, we
decided to camp here and dig the
spring deeper and clean it out, and
thus we had sufficient supply of
Adams ale to meet our require
ments. We laid over the next
day and General Rich and three
others, went on top of a mountain
near by, to take a view of the
country ahead as he was tired of
travelling over a country where
there was no show for water, and
did not intend to 60 in that direc-
ton any longer, unless there was
some prospects of that most valu-
able beverage. It was quite late
at night when they returned 70
camp and the next morning Cap
tain Smith came up and asked
brother Rich what discoveries he
had made and what he intended to
do? The General gave it as his
opinion that there was no water to
be had for some time, in that direo-
ton as he could see no signs of
anything green; as far as the eye
could reach, and, for all he knew,
probably there was no water within
one hundred and fifty miles, neither
did he believe that pass could be
| found as he could see nothing but
one mountain after another. 1t
| was his intention to make direct fol
the Spanish trail by turning and
travelling in southeasterly direc-
ton, and all who were willing tc
follow him he would lead them tc
said Spanish Trail.
Captain Smith said he would con.
tinue his course across the noun.
tains if he persisted in the attempt
"And," said he "if you do not hear
from me, you may know that l dice
with my face westward and no
before I have eaten some mule
meat"
