Yes, We Be ieve Him.

We would be slow to believe
the paragraph below if it had
been written by any one hut an
editor. AS it comes from an
editor and editors have to stand
together we will not contradict
it. All we have to say about it,
is, that it was hard rain storm.
The editor of the jerome Hust-
Ter says:
"What we are going to relate
now about this storm is the gos-
pei truth and we dent want
our readers to doubt a single
statement Some OF the larg-
est drops of rain foot in
diameter and from ten to TWEEN
0(aR6{6f 2NQ If0W G6N 70 {MeN-
ty feet long. They came down
writhing and winding like a
huge serpent and made straight
tor our head. The very first
drop that landed wet us
through and through and wash
ed a hole in the road six feet
deep. It knocked boulders
down the mountain side and
tore up several bushes. When
these drops began coming by
the millions the water fell so
much faster than it could run
down the mountain that it piled
up ten feet in the road and our
| horse had to swim for 800 yards.
All our sins were washed away
in that deluge and we are now
truthful and moral"

Henry WatterSOn. who

sans. Henry Watterson, who
was one of the prominent factors
in dividing the democratic party
! in Kentucky, and can take tc
himself some of the blame he
attaches to Taylor, in his denun-
citation of him for the murder of
Gov. Goebel. Mr.. Watterson,
in the Louisville Courier Jour
nal, in commenting on that COW
ardly assassination, uses the fol
lowing pointed language:
MANY man has been hanged
upon less evidence than that
which connects Mr. Taylor with
the assassinatiOn Of Governor
| GOebGl
Goebe1.
''This Taylor, by the money
and grace of the Louisville and
Nashville Railway Company and
the intimidated concurrence of
the officers of election in the re
cent count of votes-to say moth
ing about the lava abiding ac-
quiescence of the democratic
legislature and the democratic
masses of the state-this Tay
lor, acting as the de facto gov
ernor of Kentucky, no sooner
found himself clothed with the
little brief authority vested in
him, than he began to organize
for the forcible retention of his
de facto appointment.
"Mr. Goebel was shot down
from an ambush provided by
Taylor. Instantly all effort to
arrest his assassin was blocked
by Taylor's orders. Several
days have passed and not a word
is said by this mock governor,
SO ready with his reasonable
proclamations and so prompt
with his lawless use of troops to
disperse legislative bodies and
to terrorize courts of law, to
pursue the perpetrators of the
horrible deed done under his own
official roof, almost in his pres
ence, and by men brought to
Frankfort by his orders. 1t this
be not a public acknowledgment
of completely then there is no
significance in human conduct.
Truly, whom the gods would
destroy, they first make mad. "

The trouble in the blue gr;

The trouble in the blue grass
state is in a fair way of AMIGA
BILE settlement. A compromise
has been agreed upon by the
leaders of both parties, accord
ing to the terms of which the
state militia are to return to
their respective homes; the leg
islature is to meet in Frankfort,
and if It's action declaring Goe-
bel and Beckham, governor and
lieutenant-governor, is ratified
in Joint session, Taylor is to
accept the decision. Taylor and
his partisans are promised i'm
mnnity from the charge OF trea-
son. The terms of the Comprom
ise is virtual admission on the
part of the leaders of the repub-
ican party in Kentucky that
their action has been treasona
BILE and that they were afraid OF
the consequences. But d mur-
der has been committed and that
is still open to investigation.

The present troubles in Ken
lucky are directly traceable to
the action of a few prominent
democrats who left their party
to follow the leadership of a
few milliOnaires from New York
City. Since that time Kentucky
has been the scene of the most
uncompromising and bitter fight
tor political supremacy ever wit
messed in any state of the Union.
The same element which divided
the democratic party in 1896 did
the same thing in 1899, and their
hands are almost as red with the
blood of Gov. Goebel as are

The claim of other cough med
icines to be as good as Cham

rest in the following testimon-
ial of Mr.. G. d. Glass, an en-

sore at this time, but | was

Census of Agriculture.

The director of the census de-
sires to impress upon all en-
gagged in agricultural pursuits
in the arid and sub-humid re-
gions of the United States the
Importance Of cooperating with
the census Office in the work of
collecting data relating to irri-
cation.
Without such cooperation a
full and accurate showing of
the progress and development
of these regions cannot be as
sured, and the sections wherein
the reports are incomplete will
suffer in comparison with those
from which fuller information
has been secured.
In thirteen states and terri
tories irrigation, wholly or in
part, is relied upon to produce
crops. It is the application in
the strictest sense of scientific
methods Of farming. It's con
tinued development results in
internal expansion of the public
domain with which no individu
al or political party can FIND
fault. 1t conquers the en-
croaching desert aud reclaims
millions of acres of waste lands
It means an increase III the pro
ductive area of our great coun
try enough to feed and, clothe
another nation almost as popu
lOus as our own.
It is therefore apparent that
an accurate census of irrigation
is of great Importance. The

bitches are requested to write

The greatest danger from
colds and lagrippe is their re
sulting in pneumonia. If rea-
sonable care is used, however,
and Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy taken, all danger will be
avoided. It will cure a cold or
an attack of lagrippe in less
time than any other treatment.
1t is pleasant and safe to take.

EDITOR MAIL:
Your enterprising paper comes
regularly and we haye thereby
an opportunity to see what our
neighbors on the west are do
ing.
The incorporation OF Wins
low, think, a step in the right
direction; the amount of ready
cash that is circulated in your
town in the course of a year
will certainly justify the ex-
pense. Many evils that drift in
upon you by way of the rail
road need correction or suppress
sion. The time of many ques-
tionable characters that i'm
pose themselves upon you could
be applied to good advantage
in cleaning and grading your
streets, cleaning your bitches,
etc. Giving such persons an
opportunity to earn their meals
and an appetite to enjoy them.
Proper arrangements to provide
fire apparatus, with suitable
persons drilled in the handling
thereof. Everything in the
form of a nuisance, if permitted
at all, can be relegated within
it's proper bounds. Parents can
be assisted in looking after and
protecting the young, and turn
ing their steps homeward at
proper hours; and many other
beneficial things will result
from a proper manipulation OF
municipal government. 1t is
true your city marshal, night
watchman, the person engaged
for a short time in working up
CITY ordinances, the sexton OF
your cemetery, etc, will have
to be renumerated and your city
tax must be as light as possible
until some good results are
plainly manifest and the popu-
lar expression calls for more of
the same kind of medicine, after
that it will be easier sailing.
Our farmers are getting we'll
along with their spring work.
Most of the wheat is sown and
irrigation is going on day and
night as promptly as is usual in
the summer season.
DIR. Karl G.. Maeser and 9th
ers from Salt Lake City are

terest and we expect an enjoy
able time for the next few DAYS.

Literary Club.

The town of Winslow has
recently been incorporated and
a public spirit and interest has
been manifested. This spirit
was perhaps the outgrowth Of
a desire to make the most of
opportunities. While the men
OF the town were planning the
successful organization the wo-
men we're planning and success
fully undertaking the forma-
ton of a literary cluS for wo-
men.
On October 25, 1899, a number
of ladies met at the residence of
""
or T10Ioo moo @O enc ooI"o--ss o~
Mrs. f. T. Myers for the pur-
pose Of organizing the club.
The following officers were
chosen: Mrs. F. T. Myers,
president; Mrs. H. N. Much
more, vice-president; Miss
Krentz, secretary and treasurer,
and Mrs. E. G. Steineck, cor
responding secretary.
The objects of the club are
for the benefit of social culture,
mental Improvement and educa-
ton.
The course of study is excel
lent. The members are women
! who are not content to skim
lightly over various topics, but
who have a desire to seek and
work hard for knowledge.
They early recognized the
necessity Of learning all there
was to learn about this, their
adopted state and a series of
interesting papers on Arizona
was the result. The topics
covered were as follows:
physical Features of Ari-
zona," "History of Arizona, .
agricultural Resources of Ari-
zona and Modern Irrigation in
Arizona. +" The study is to be
continued as follows: "AnCient
Irrigation in Arizona. "Pre-
historic Arizona and Zoology
and Botany of Arizona. It is
probable that these subjects
may be sub divided and others
added before the subject is con-
sidered exhausted.
A study of American litera-
ture was also undertaken. This
comprised papers relating to
literature and biography. The
literature papers were as fol
lows: History of American
Literature, y Literature of the
Colonial Period, it's Character
and Style, . ''Litera ture During
and Imeediately Following the
Revolution and Evolution of
American Fiction, as to sub
iects and diction. The bio
graphical papers have described
the following men: Benz.
Franklin, Washington Irving
and Jas. Fennimore Cooper.
The study OF American litera-
ture is but just begun and offers
a wide field for future study.
Each paper read is filed with
the libraiarD by the author. In
this way members absent from
any meeting may procure them.
It is only justice to say that
IN no case has a lady failed to
do the duty assigned her. In
many instances great difficulty
was experienced in obtaining
material on the given subjects,
but that excuse was never
offered. Each sought for what
knowledge she could obtain
and did her duty cheerfully.
In order that the people OF
Winslow may have an idea OF
the programs that of the meet
ing of February Z, 1900, with
Mrs. Jas. 0. Campbell is given
below:

NEW LAWS PROPOSED.
The Purpose of Constitutional
Amendments Explained.
VOTERS TO CONSIDER
RELIEF FOR INDIGENTs. school,
TAXES AND REFERENDUM.

Up to this time the public prints
have given the voters but little in
formation upon the three proposed
amendments to the state constitution
to be submitted for ratification or re-
lection on election day. The fate of
the proposed amendments is in doubt.
Notwithstanding that at the general
election two years ago two Of the pro-
positions which are now resubmitted
We're defeated by the voters who be-
lieved that it was unnecessary to tam
per with the constitution by amending
it SO soon after it was framed and
adopted by the people of the new state
in 1895.
The first amendment found on the Of
nclai ballots carries the title 'tProvid-
ing that the taxes of the INDECENT
poor may be RENTED or abated -
The entire proposed amendment to
section 5 of article Is of the ccnsti-
tuition is stated thus in the resolution
OF the legislature submitting the
amendment to vote of the electors
provided further. that the taxes Of
the INDECENT poor may be RENTED or
abated at such time and in such man
ner as may be provided by law"
There is no constitutional authority
Tor granting exemption of taxes to
poor property owners like there was
before statehood. Then, however. Utah
county alone RENTED more taxes on
this account than did all of the other
counties combined and that county did
not have more than its. share of poor
persons MANY who would like to give
the legislature power to provide for the
remission of taxes of INDECENT poor
persons contend that the law in this
regard il former times was omen to
gross abuses. They point. however 10

and counties can be drawn uD0n 10
prevent the sale of any poor widows

THIS they believe is the proper remedy.
School Tax Proposition.
The proposed amendment To section
b OF article 10 of the state constitution
says little but it means much to the
taxpayers of Salt Lake city, Ogden,
Provo and Logan if it carries. on its
race the effect is only to strike out the
words maintained and so that the
section viii read. In cities
