the hard experiences of the first Win

time many of Us dug up sego roots for
food, now we saw a fair sufficiency for
our wants. Then, when rest seemed TO
be our reward. Brigham Young and the
rest OF the Saints (who had been left at
Winter Quarters in 1S47, and to whom
Brigham Young and his company were
returning as we entered the canyons on
the east side of the Wasatch) came
back. Our numbers were doubled by
this great accession to uor population.
Still. while they brought US more peo-

them much stores This was in Sep

been in the valley, therefore those VINO
came then, did not know anything of
the terrible experiences we had to pass
through from our arrival until the re-
turn of Brigham Young and his peo-
Die.
Peace and plenty prevailed. good
health and good appefites were very
general, for people were kept too busy
and had no time to think about sick
ness. 1 must say that Brigham Young
was not only eIninenGiy qualified to be
a leader, but he was a good adminis-
traitor and colonizer.
As peace and uuietness prevailed and
the Indians always showed a friendly
face, the unsuSpecting Saints began to

tired of the feeding policy, became
troublesome and down here on Battle
Creek (now called Pleasant Grove We
had our first encounter with them.
The Indians had fortified themselves
in a good position on the creek, and
from their fortress bid defiance to the
paleface. A messenger was dispatched

sary to use a human target. Many peo-
pie, male and female, offered their ser

is a brother of the Redemptorist order,
refused to permit anyone to risk his
life except himself.

waiting to approve a treaty. and ne de-
clared that this provision could arouse
criticism on the mental ability OF the
congress enacting it.
Mr. Allison explained that congress
had no means of negotiating with
foreign governments, so that a treaty.
was essential before any reciprocal plan
of tariff reduction could be executed
The conference amendment striking
out the senate provision for a stamp
tax on bonds and stocks also led to dis
cuSSion- In answer to inquiries, Mr..
Allison said the point has been raised
that an excise tax must be levied on a.
class of articles as a whole, while the
senate amendment expressly excepted
bonds of building associations and
other classes of bonds. This Objection
was felt to be well taken and the bond
provision was abandoned.
Mr.. Allen declared that this was an
other humble submission to the money
power
Mr.. Morgan asserted that there were
many reasons beyond the one assigned
for the abandonment OF the bond tax.
The main influence was the favoiritism
shown TO capital. 1t was this favorit-
ism which was making converts to the
Populist party.
Another influence was the sugar
trust, which had been instrumental in
having the bond tax abandoned as It
would affect the tremendous stock
transfers of the trust
The formal reading of the conference
report was completed at $50 o'clock,
and the senate at once went into ex-
ecutive session. adjourning soon after.
