I'm coming from the east" said Mr.
p. b. Mexican, a prominent merchant
of Milford. at the Cullen yesterday
zone can feel the change of air Here
it is more bracing, but east it is stl-
fling. We made quite an extended tour
of the east, visiting Chicago, New York,
Philadelphia and a great many of the
largest cities in the United States In
New York you can see men everywhere
| with their coats off, trying TO keep
from melting down. My trip east was
of a business as well as a sightseeing
nature. and its results are very salts
factory. In conversation with eastern
men 1 find that the fame of Utah's
mines is becoming universal almost.
don't know how many monied men
have told me they were coming out to
take a look at the country, with view
/ to buying"
1.-THE Green River country is all
right" remarked John Cronin of Green
River at the White House last night.
"A remarkably large number of people
/ have come in there this spring, and that
country is going to be one of the best
in the west We raise nearly anything
we need in the way of food. 1t is a
country that stands without peer for
stock raising and ranching generally.
I would advise any young man to go
up there and settle down. 1 am almost
ready to guarantee him success if he
works hard and keeps a-going."
I'VE are not ready to sell our cattle
yet" said Ezra Morgan at the White
House up in Stockton, where | live,
there is a good market for beef, and
we sell enough of it to keep going until
about fall. The man who sells his stock
now. who could afford to keep them, is
making a mistake. People eat more
meat in the winter, consequently the
prices are better. and again, it is al
most impossible to sell this early and
cover what you have fed out during
the winter, if you have treated your
cattle properly. and make any margin
at all Cattle are not looking as well
as they should. The pasturage is poor
up our way. We have had the least
rain fell l have seen for several years,
and the country is awful dry"
William s. Schell, prominent mer-
chant of Robinson. was seen at the
White House last night. Robinson is
somewhat quiet at present" said he.
''but there Is a good substantial bust
ness there that is permanent. There is
a little building going on, and some
preparations being made to celebrate
the fou1tn Oh July
Bishop Albert r. Smith of Manassa.
Colo. who is here to attend the con-
ference of the authorities of the Nor
mon church. was at the Cullen last
night. In regard to the meeting" said
he, "I am not prepared to state what
will be done but changing the subject
a little, 1 must remark that it Is
pleasure unalloyed to see green grass
and green trees. and all the indications
of freshness and life that one sees here
everywhere. We have been nearly |
burnt out in Colorado. / dare say there |
isn't a blade of green grass within |
miles of my place, and hardly any |
water. / have lost great many cattle, |
and expect l will lose more, but even |
we are not in the worst part of the |
drought. On the north end of the San |
Louis valley there is much more suf- |
fering among the cattle some large |
cattle men are spending thousands of |
dollars in having water carted to their |
herds"
