To Cure a Cold.

A most excellent remedy for cold,
which may easily be made at, home,
and which has the advantage OF being
pleasant, as well as effective, Is made
as follows: Wash two lemons, and put
them in quart Of boiling water. Boil
twenty minutes; remove, and while hot.
cut the lemons open and remove the
pulp and juice. Strain through a
coarse sieve, to remove the seeds, and
mix with half cupful Of graduated
sugar Stand In a cool place until 1t
has jellied Take a teaspoonful every
half hour. This is an old German re-
ceipt, and is particularly good for bron-
chial affections. as well as ordinary
colds. l 81 q,

Small Farms Pay.

Small farms can be made to pay IL
properly utilized. One farmer in New
York State who has but twenty-five
acres keeps two horses, one COW, and
raises two pigs each year, growing all
the food required to support his family
and stock, making poultry and eggs his
specialties. He devoted most of his
time to poultry, claiming that 1t was
less work than hauling milk to the rail
road station in the winter, aud that
eggs bring good prices every year. The
result was that he made fair profit.
while farmers with large farms claim
ed to have made nothing. When farm
ers decide that poultry can be made a
leading object on farms, and not given
up to women and children, they viii
have 4 source of income better than
many others and for every month IN
the year.

=Growing Onion Sets.

Try an experiment in growing onion
sets and onions the same year, even If
on small scale. Make cold frame in
the winter, fill the bottom with fresh
horse manure, and over this put rich,
sifted dirt. Cover with boards at night
or use glass sash. The point is not to
have 1t too warm for onions. Sow
onion seed as thick as desired, and
should they grow too fast let in more
air or cool with water. In the spring
use these small onions as sets, trans
planting them in the open air.

one POINT n wintering bees ,.,..

An apiarist of long experience has
this to say In the, Beekeepers' Review
regarding upward venulation; My
conclusion is that upward ventilation
appears to increase somewhat the ten
dency to an accumulation of feces, and
also, at least in this experiment, to de-
crease the strength OF the colony, and
II this appearance Is real we may con-
clude that the upward movement Of
the air disquiets the bees and causes
larger proportion than otherwise
would to leave the cluster and perish.

Provo, Nov. 6.-President Partridget
of the Utah county stake was today in
terviewed by The Herald correspondent
concerning the statement he made last
Saturday about the congressional can
didates, and in view of the fact that
his words have been quoted and a
wrong construction placed upon them,
which might influence some people on
election day, he made the following
statement:
The reason that politics was men,
toned at all in our priesthood meet
ing was because the rumor had gotten
out that Mr.. Roberts was a church
candidate and the presidency wanted
the Mormon people to vote for him.
The high authorities of the church
have not sanctioned any one, and they
do not mean to do SO. The church has
nothing to do with politics. It has no
candidates, and is in favor of neither

lively. Therefore, I told my brethren

date, but wholly in defense Of my
church. and 1 repeat that 1 said moth

mean that my words should be inter-
preted against him, and do not want

YES" said Mr.. Partridge, 'if by
the word polygamist you mean one
who entered into plural marriage when
polygamy was q principle of the faith
of the Latter-day Saints"
This statement was read to David
Johns, second counselor to President
Partridge, and he said: The senti-
ments expressed in this statement are
mine and 1 endorse every word Of it.''

Colonel TrumbO Replies.

Colonel Trunlbo was seen regarding
the matter. and expressed 2 wiling
ness to give his version of the matter,
which he did in q. very emphatic man
ner. He said: 4 have no quarrel with
President George Q. Cannon. L have
made no statement that is untrue, or
which cannot be easily proven. As to
the incident to which he takes eXcep-
ton, perhaps further statement may
refresh his memory, but whether it
does or not, it is the truth, as others
know.
Along about 1851 am not exactly
certain myself as to the precise date
I was n washington looking after
some matters Of legislation in which
the people here were interested. In the
course Of a talk with Senator Ednunds,
who was hostile to the people, said
/ could bring some young men to
Washington from Utah who would size
up with the young men from any other
part of the nation as to intelligence,
and so on. and that il they did not
come uD 10 that standard, I wouldn't
ask anything more at his hands in be-
half of the people. The matter rested
there until I came back to Salt Lake
Sme time later, when, in calling on
president Woodruff, 1 incidentally
mentioned the conversation had with
Senator Edmunda
of having some Of our young men go
on to Washington, but no action was
taken at that time. l went to CalifOr-
MIA for a short time, and on my re-
turn met President Woodruff again,
when the subject again came up. He
suggested Judge Elias =. Smith, Heber
NJ Wells and some young man from
ogden as suitable persons TO go east.
] then suggested that Frank J. Cannon
be selected from Ogden, and expressed
my confidence in his ability and use
fulness. On this occasion President
George Q. Cannon and President Jo-
seph +. Smith were present, and when
the conversation closed and I was
lea-ring, President Cannon expressed to
me his qualification at my statement
concerning his son. but added that he
doubted the correctness of my judg-
ment as to Franks availability for that
particular mission. That was all there
was to il, and there was nothing in the
conversation, perhaps, to impress it
self as strongly on President Cannon's
mind as upon my own, for the reason
that of those named, Frank was the
only one sent east, and L was asso-
ciated with him at different times in
washington for a considerable time.
He did deport himself in a creditable
manner and did good service. as I
stated in my address. This took oc-
casion to state, in writing to Salt Lake.
and President Cannon expressed his
satisfaction at what / had said. This
is substantially what 1 said at Ogden.

To the Editor of The Herald:
I am informed by reputable gentle
men who were present at a political
meeting held in the opera house at
Ogden on Saturday evening, the 5th
inst, that Colonel Isaac Trumbo, one
OF the speakers, delivered himself Of
a statement to the effect that on re-
turning once from the east, he called
on President woodruff, asking that
three young MoTmOns be sent back to
Washington to show Senator Edmunds
that, in character and intelligence, the
young men OF this community were at
least up to the average, and were quite
1itted Tor the duties OF statehood; that
Heber NJ. Wells, Elias A. Smith and q
young man from Ogden were chosen
for this mission; that he Colonel
Trumbo) personally requested that IN
stead OF the unnamed young man from
ogden, Frank j. Cannon be selected,
which was done; and that at the close
of the interview tat which l had been
present. 1 followed him Colonel Trum-
boz out of the office, thanked him for
his request Tor and interest in Frank.
but expressed the fear that he had
made a mistake, inasmuch as he
CFran1) was untrustworthy, unreliable,
etc.
Silence on my part When' my own
honor and that Of my family is as
sailed, win hardly be deemed a virtue.
Averse as 1 am, and have been, to en-
tering into or saying anything which
could be construed as likely to have
an effect upon the political campaign,
this astonishing statement forces me
TO an utterance. !, therefore, take oc-
casion to declare that the entire incl
dent above narrated is a myth and a
fiction, so far as my connection with
it is concerned. ! know Of no such
interview with President Woodruff; /
know Of no such selection of men to
go to Washington as specimens of
young Utah; 1 was present at no
meeting where Colonel Trumbo offered
tsuch a proposition and made such a
sTequest; and accordingly had no such
Conversation with him, as he quotes,
q with reference to the untrustworthiness
or unreliability of my son. Simple JUS
tice to the latter, and my own self
respect, compel me to say that [ can
not recall a single circumstance which
would furnish even the slightest foun-
dation for such story-and that in
so far as Colonel Trumbo associates
me with the incident. his statement is
altogether untrue.

Chicagoan Thought to Be Kidnapped
For Purpose of Blackmail.

Chicago, Nov. 6.-The Times-Herald

bachmail, and the wife and mother fear
Mr.. McCOnlley has been murdered, al
though they can suggest no explanation
or motive other than a possible plot form

or other. McConkey left his home in
response to a telephone call which sum-

Waukee and Oakley avenues at $50. He
was met by two men and. although ap-

finally boarded a street car in their COM

of other very inelegant expressions,
but he makes no reference to the chap
who turns political sonersaults or the
one who eats crow. If he wants
really good story, that describes his
character and fttingly illustrates his
present position, 1 commend to him the
story of the express train and the bull,
first applied to him by our mutual
friend, Bishop Whitney, in the consti-
tutional convention. 1t runs thus: A
bull was feeding in a pasture through
which railway track extended, along
which an express train was advancing
at lightning speed. The bull got on
the track and tried to prevent the
train from passing. He did not seem
to know what was coming, and pre-
ferring his free thought to a throne,
planted himself squarely in the way
of the invincible power that came
rushing and roaring along. The bull
did not seem to know what was COM
ing, but the farmer, his owner, did,
and with a gasp of astonishment,
mingled with admiration, exclaimed:
well, admire your courage, but
damn your Judgment
What was only lack of Judgment
when the comparison was made by the
worthy bishop, 1 fear has ripened into
something worse. At that time he was
only at loggerheads with a convention,
later it was with his quorum, and now
he is engaged in cold-blooded plan
to bring trouble upon the best friends
he has in the world.
There is absolutely no religious prin-
ciple involved in this discussion, and
Mr.. Roberts attempts to drag some
thing of the kind into the campaign
are only pitiable appeals to divert pub
lie attention from the fact that his
enormous greed for office has worked
all the mischief. Aside from the trou-
bic his election would create. a man
whose character is marked by every
act that may define a demagogue and
who seems to be in constant need of a
guardian to keep him in his party
and in his church, is scarcely worthy
the suffrages of his people.
AS to my political associates and
what they have said about my father,
am quite willing to compare them,
from any standpoint, with the political
associates of Mr.. Roberts and what
they have said and what they still
say Of him. Very respectfully,
HEBER NJ. WELLS.
