Friend Bishop;
have often been asked by acquaint-
ances and others about the ACCESSIBILITY
of emigrating to the West. l would not
advise anyone to go-or not to 60. AS
a general thing it is much like lottery
ticket-some draw prize and many
draw blank. l have conversed with
several industrious, hard working tenn
perate men, since 1 came out, that have
families to support, who say they are not
doing as we'll as they did in the East and
some of them will return when they
have the means. In some respects the
climate is congenial and very pleasant,
those who have the means can have any
climate they may choose, but the every
day working man must locate and stick
to it or he is likely to fare hard.
1t is first rate place to loaf, it can't
be beat in this respect, the tourist can
enjoy everything his heart conld wish as
long as money lasts, but if that is gone
he must skedaddle or 60 to work.
But the climate here is more enervat-
ing, people loose, in mersure, their vip
and vim, and can not hustle as they do
at the East. AS an illustration, a new
conner was going to town the other day
witt, some friends, they did not walk
fast enough to suit her so she said, ado
come along and not drag So" they re-
piled, "Before you have been here two
years, you will drag your feet the same
as we do" l do not wish to be under
stood that the people are lazy, but they
can not endure as much as in the North
or East.
Before left promised some of my
young friends and others, who asked
many questions, that | would write to
them about the outs and ms of this part
of the great West, as truthfully as
could. / will do so through the HERALD
for know everyone reads, or ought to
read the HERALD in your vicinity that
wants to be posted up to date.
| have chosen to write in verse as it
gives more latitude for expression and
is easier for me. Perhaps some of the
descriptions are rather minute but
write mostly for the young and those
who have not seen this wonderful land.
! am aware it may not be very inter-
esting to the old tourist, still there are
some things that will refresh his memory
and remind him of by.gone days. | do
not propose to know all there is worth
knowing here, but having lived here
about eight years, in early and later
days, l am better posted then was
fifty years ago.
A Mr.. Smith and farmer Jones
Are getting homesick of their homes,
They ask me if think it best
TO sell their farms and 60 out West.
My answers plaintiffs no, sir, no."

Brutally Tortured.

A case came to light that for persistent
and unmerciful torture has perhaps
never been equaled. Joe Golobrick

| tried everything known. | came across
Electric Bitters and it's the greatest med
icine on earth for that trouble. A few
