A Liberal Offer.

Again the government comes forth
to offer to the farmers valuable means
to make their lands more productive
n more economically handled.
However, this generosity is not being
appreciated by the farmers so well as
those in charge Of the work would
like. The proposition that is being
made Is for system OF drainage which
would render that land which was
valuable alfalfa, wheat and beet land,
back into its former productiveness.
| The reasons for this land detcriorat-
ing Is given in the article which fol-
lows:
Mr.. Elliot, the gentleman in charge
OF this work, says the government Is
willing TO establish an experiment.
al farm in conjunction with some
farmer whose land needs draining;
that as yet no one has been willing TO
cooperate with the government in
such move. The motives for this
backwardness on the part Of the
farmer is not known by us, but, view
ing IL from Il standpoint OF economy
and good husbandry, that work which
will reclaim our boggy lands, made so
10y wasteful irrigation system, is
thrice welcome as a boon that will
greatly enhance the value of our pos
sessions. 1t is hoped that some farm
er, after reading the sub-joined article,
will offer to cooperate with this
worthy work. II means golden OPP
porunity to him that will benefit, per-
haps the majority Of the farmers OF
our state.

Keep up courage.

1t is to be regretted that after so
much money and hard labor has been
expended by the Wellsvile and Mount
Sterling people on their canal from
the Muddy river around through Ster-
ling and to Wcllsville, that large
slide has filed in the ditch rendering
it useless until another large outlay is
expended. There is but one thing for
the stockholders Of the ditch company
to do and that is, to not lose their
faith and courage which have been so
molly manifested during the past
twenty years. Their land is valuable
and in time will repay for all the out
lay IN production and in its enhance
ment of value. The sooner the emer-
gency is met the quicker the land will
be brought to more productive state
by the use of the water.
People owning land in Cache county
must remember that they are blessed
above many people in living in d
hea!thful climate, and surrounded
with other advantages that tend tC
make life pleasant. When they are
confronted with such reverses as above
stated, they must overcome them ir
the best way possible. But never en-
terrain for minute thought about
selling out and going elsewhere. Sim
liar occurrences happen with most al
canals. Above all, keep your Cache
valley land for 1t Is one Of the garder
spots of the country.

Jackson Co. Missouri.

j. &. Dufiiin, an agent of the Nor
mon church recently purchased a
twenty-five acre tract Of land in Inde-
pendence, Mo. The gentleman was
interviewed by reporter of the "In-
dependence Times" and states the
following:
at is true that the Mormon church
will build temple on the tract pur-
chased by me by authorization at In
dependence. We are carrying out a
commandment in our book of doc
trines and covenants contained in a
revelation through Joseph, the Seer,
in 1881. We consider this command
to be the word of God.
"In my visit to Salt Lake City the
colonization of believers in the Nor
mon faith at Independence was dis
cussed and it is our intention TO erect
temple and form settlement of
Mormons. In time we expect to pur-
chase adjoining land and build
churches, schools and other buildings,
and establish the City of Zion spoken
of in revelation. In time the head
quarters OF the Mormon church may
be established at Independence. We
have made NJ definite plans except
that we are surely going to establish
the Mormon church in Jackson coun
ty. There will be no great rush OF
our faith to the new colony but rather
gradual building up of the church
in Jackson county"
The land purchased by Elder Dutiin
for the church is part of the origna
temple tract owned by the Mormon
in 1881. The original tract was 6,
acres in extent. In 1888 the Mormon
were driven out of Jackson county ant
by 1889 they had been forced out o
the state. A part of the tract wa
then sold and the remainder was los
through tax sales. Though forced I,
leave the state once and having los
their property also, the church Ina
never given up the idea of establish
ing City Of Zion in Jackson county
The tract purchased by Elder Dutfi
is the foothold by which they expec
to carry out the original project

"Lean and Fat Years.

For seven years, under the admins
trations of William Mckinley and
Theodore Roosevelt, labor and capital

Eight years ago the Republican par
ty marshaled its hosts in the shadow

ow of closed foctories and suspended
banks.
We were running i'm debt then at
every tick of the clock, accommodating
an overdraft in our Treasury, fed by
selling bonds and drained by an end
less chain, recruiting Coxey's army
and reading Coins Financial School.
The years were lean and the earth
was lean, and lean-faced men, as night
came on, came out of their hiding
places in the alleys Of depression and
lifted up strange voices on the curb
and in the deserted market places.

nothing has happened nothing but
a Republican Administration.
There is something about the Re-
publican party that sends things up

Opposition that sends things down be-

Wealth of Ancient Jews,

A writer in the Jewish magazine, the
Menorah, says that there were richer
men before the Christian era thar there
are now. He estimates Korah's for
tune at 100000, 1000, and says that
Solomon, after spending $3.50, 900, 900
on his temple, was still worth between
S3OO,0OO,0OO and $40O,0O0,O 900. In Ro-
man times there were three Jews in Je-
rusalem who between them offered to
spend 500, 100000 for twenty-one years
in feeding the inhabitants Of the city
rather than surrender the city. One
of these Jews, Nikodemon, gave his
daughter a dowry Of $425, 900, 900.

Don't look for flaws as you go through

And ever when yon find them,
1t is wise and kind to be somewhat

And to seek for the virtues behind them
For the cloudiest night has a hint of

Somewhere in its shadows hiding,
And it's better far to hunt for a star
Than the spots on the sun abiding"
Be patient, keep sweet, and above all
things do not worry and fret. Do your
best and leave results to take care OF
themselves. Be true TO your best self
nd remember that-''We wear no veil
over our hearts in the prese nee of chill
dren. AS the electrometer trembles at
the presence of the feeblest electric cur

need to be proclaimed. 1t beams from
the eye, radiates from the face, breathes
its benediction in the voice, and dis
closes itself in every movement and
bearing"
