STORY OF MANUFACTURING N UTAH
EARLY STRUGGLES AND LATER TRIUMpds

deed to eradicate the grease contained
IN them. For that reason the goods
were not purchased freely by merchants
and the manufacturers were compelled
to exchange their fabrics for other
products, dlsposing OF the latter as
best they could.
II was, therefore rather uphill work
for several years to make the business
succeed however. the prices obtained
were usually good. A common quality
of blankets sold then for SIS per pair,
Nowadays much better grade can be
obtained for half the price. Calicos In
those times were expensive and CON
sumers had to pay 40 TO so cents yard
oftentimes for goods which can be
purchased now from to 8 cents. And
so II was with nearly everything else
Mr. Cutler states that while the WOOL
en- mills of Utah were In their crude
state greater variety of fabrics were
manufactured than now. Dress flan-
nels were in great demand during the
early stages Of the Industry, az were
certain other grades which are not used
now at ALL
The Provo mills were established In
1870 and President Young was the
largest stakeholder, the balance OF the
stock was subscribed by Utah county
citizens who paid for II mostly in labor,
very little money being received.
with the installation Of modern ma
chinery IN late years the superiority OF
the Utah woolens became recognized in
the east and now there IL such a de-
mand coming from that quarter that
fully three-quarters of the product OF
the Provo mills are shipped out OF the
state. Nearly all the woolens sent
away are cassimeres. which includes
the tricot silk mixed and kerseys.
The Provo mills alone, Mr.. Cutler
states, consume approximately 1000, 900
pounds OF wool yearly. For years It
has been the custom TO send representa-
tives Of the institution to the various
sheep camps In the spring, before the
shearing season. BY pursuing this
course only the best grades OF wool are
purchased and the local institution
has the advantage over the eastern
manufacturer OF not being required to
depend upon the warehouses for its
supply,

~ REAT changes have been
wrought in late years In
Utah's wooden mill industry
and today the products Of the
mills of this state have ready
market in the east.
1t was not so very long ago
that the home manufactured
woolens became merchantable in a
competitive sense, but now it Is very
different story
The mill of today Is much different
institution than the one found here a
quarter of a century or more ago.
While in IA reminiscent mood a few
days ago, John c. Cutler, who has done
very much TO build up this great home
industry related some Of the trials ex-
perienced by the managers of the early
factories established In the state, OF
which there were several.
The first mill established In Utah. Mr..
Cutler states, was built by the late
President Brigham Young. This was
back In the CO.'S, and the location Sc
lected for it was at the mouth OF Par
ley's canyon and only a short distance
from the Utah penitentiary. 1t was
known as the Deseret mill, and James
w. Cummings was superintendent Of
It. Later another plant was built near
er SAT- Lake City by President Young,
A. o. Smoot. father Of Senator Reed
Smoot and General r. 7. Burton.
About 1870 the Provo Wooden mills
were established and some other mills
also came into existence about that
time, one was built at Ogden, another at
Sprlngville and still another at Beaver
Strange to say all OF these have gone
out of existence, excepting the Provo
mills, which have grown into large pro-
portions and now furnish employment
for about 200 people.
Business was carried on in the early
days mostly in barter and trade way.
While the goods manufactured at that
time were Of a very durable quality,
they were inferior in other
ways. The methods of cleans
ing the woods were not per-
feet and II was difficult matter, in

Badness Duo to Living Minute Germ

Badness Due to- Living Minute Germ
Many people. even unto the present
day OF grace, consider badness due TO
hereditary influence.
Nothing Is further from the truth
Badness is caused by the onslaught OF
a minute organism which secretes itself
beneath the scalp and attacks the roots
OF the hair-causing II to lose its life
and fall out
This organism cannot be got rid Of
except by the free and persevering use
OF Newbros Herpicide.
No matter how badly the scalp Is
effected the Dandruff surely disappears
and hair health is restored when Her
piclde Is applied.

Historian versus Politician.

When Mr.. Roosevelt wrote the Life
Of Thomas ii. Benton he declared in
that work that political economists
have pretty generally agreed that pro-
lection is vicious in theory and harm
full in practice" Yet at that time the
tariff rates were much less than they
are under the present law, and there
fore protection must now be more
vicious and harmful. Indeed, the facts
prove that deduction. for the trusts
and combinations have grown apace
and have reached their climax under
the Dingley bill. Yet President Roose-
welt, with the enormous power as chief
executive at his command, not only
refuses to aid in reforming the vicious
protective system, but is standing
pat" with the tariff barons and in
league with the trust magnates to con-
tinue the harmful practice. Political
ambition makes wonderful difference
in the way vicious and harmful legis-
lation is viewed, and the eyes of Presi-
dent Roosevelt are not the first that
have been blinded by the hunger for
fame and power.

Labor ana Capital.

Attributed to Baron Rothschild:
The great agglomerations of capital
are really the fortunes of the people
always in circulation, breeding,
fructifying. 1t circulates like the
blood in the body. Capital represents
the energy, the thrift, the labor of
the nation. Capital is labor. -
The socialists. Monsieur lie Baron,
say the labor of Others
Barring few unfortunate excep-
TONS" says the roi DIES rois. every
one has that share of capital which
he merits by his intelligence. his en-
ergy his own work. And this is true
of ever class. PROFESSIONALLY the
profits are not equally divided; some
get more; some get less; Why not?
1t is only just that he who brings not
only capital, but his trained intelli-
genee, his faculties of organization
and invention, should be better paid

WHAT IS CATARRH?
HyOmeI Cures This Common and Disagree
able Disease.

Hyomei cures catarrh by the simple
passages and lungs. 1t kills the germs
of catarrhal poison, heals and soothes
the irritated mucous membrane, en-
tiers the blood with the oxygen and
kills the germs present there, effectu-
ally driving this disease from the sys-
tenn.
The complete HyOmei outfit costs
but 81, and comprises an inhaler. d
bottle of Hyomei and a dropper. The
inhaler will last lifetime; and addi-
tional bottles of Hyomei can be OBJ
tanned for soc.
If you have any of the following
symptoms, catarrhal germs are at
work somewhere in the mucous mem
brane of the nose, throat, bronchial
tubes CT tissues of the lungs:
Offensive breath, dryness of the
nose, pain across the eyes, pain in
back of the head, pain in front of the
head, tendency to take cold, burning
pain in the throat, hawking to clear
the throat, pain in the chest, a cough.
stitch in side, losing of flesh, variable
appetite, low spirited at times, rails
VI IlObhl IluCOuSs
yellow matter, difficulty in breathing,
frequent sneezing, huskiness of voice,
discharge from the nose, stoppage of
the nose at night, aching of the body,
droppings in the throat, mouth open
while sleeping, tickling back of the
palate, formation of crusts in the
nose, dryness of the throat in the
morning, loss of strength, spasms of
coughing, cough short and hacking,
cough worse nights and mornings,
loss in vital force, a feeling of tight
ness across the upper part of the
chest.
Hyomei will destroy activity of all
catarrhal germs in the respiratory or
gans, and in a few weeks the cure will
be complete.
This is strong statement, but T..
II. Thomas emphasizes it by agreeing
to refund your money if Hyomei does
not cure.

Speaker Cannon and Congressman
De Almond have been in the house
together for a dozen years. one re-
publican and the other democratic
leader. They have scored each other
in speeches and have flung parliament
tary taunts at each other. but no one

they never introduced themselves.
The other day John Sharp Williams

Peace to His Ashes.

Although not wholly unexpected by
those familiar with the state of his
health of late, the death of Walter
Johnson, editor of the Rock Island
Union, will occasion deep sense of
sorrow to all who knew him. Few
men in the community in which he
had moved for so many years bore
greater degree of public regard and
good will. The varying shades of opin-
ion on matters political and of public
policy did not lessen the respect of
those who differed with him. He was
man of settled conviction and it was
his aim that in all things his influence
be eXerted for the right according to
the light that was given him. In
editorial policy he was conservative
yet positive, and as a writer he was
polished and accomplished. his articles
of a descriptive nature being of a high
order and bearing stamp of individu-
atty peculiarly his own.
Personally he was modest and re-
served to such degree that it was
only those who by association became
traits of his character, who appreciate
ed most highly the warmth of his cor
diality and priced most sincerely the
depth of his friendship. He was loyal
to those of whom he was fond, and
unflagging in his devotion to those
whom he trusted.
Earnest and unfeigned and of full.
measure is the sympathy that goes to
the bereaved ones both of his family
and those to whom in the field of his
daily labOrs he had been familiar
