A BRIGHAM

Bishop Talbot, in his book my PEG
pie of the Plains" gives an interesting
chapter on Mormonism. He says that
the most prejudiced enemy of the Nor
mon church must admit that the thrift,
industry and unremitting labor of the
people are beyond all praise, but per
haps the matter of greatest Interest to
the general public is an %aneahote 'on-
corning Brigham Young and his mira
Giles. The bishop says:
Much has been said of Brigham
Young who was the maker though not
the founder of Mormonism. There are
many still living who knew him well,
and his character and personality are
EASILY ascertalned. He vas a New
Highlander, and was 30 years of age
when he became identified with the
Mormons. He was by trade a painter,
and did not have the advantages of a
liberal education, but was possessed of
remarkable natural shrewdness, ana
was a born leader Of men, Large, mas
terful, somewhat INSCRIPTIONS, fertile
in resources, he left the impress of his
genius and organizing power upon the
Mormons indelibly. Indeed, in many
respects, as his work Enthusiastically
shows, he was a unique man. AS a far
seeing executive, giving attention to
every detail which tended to add efic.
.ency to his somewhat complicated ma,
| chinery, he has had few equals.
"Innumerable are the stories illus,
~trating his native wit and versatility.
1t is said that one day a Welshman
with one leg had been converted on the
promise that Brigham would a
new leg to grow. He reached Salt
Lake and forthwith presented himself
at the Zion House ONCE and was con-
fronted by the great man.
" And so you want a new leg, do
your said Brigham. Well, l can give
it you, but remember that all the at
tributes you have in this life will be
resurrected at the last day. Now you
have already had two legs, and If l
create for you a third, then in eternity
you will be like a monstrosity, and will
have three legs. Besides, you are al
ready old, and cannot live much long
er. Choose, therefore, between u new
leg here and three in heaven
THE poor fellow naturally decided
to try to be content with one leg here
that he might have two only here
after"

PHYSICAL GROWTH, MORAL VEL
FARE.

The yea 1906 takes position as one
of tremendous physical development
for the United States. The progress
was wonderful. The farmer, every
where recognized as the backbone o.
industrial life, was blessed with great
crops which taxed the abilities of the
carrying companies to transport to the
markets. The manufacturers rejoiced
in large outputs. The merchants saw
their stores filed with eager buyers.
The laborers had good wages and stea,
dy employment. The people generally
We're coutented and happy because oil
the Unprecedented prosperity which the
country enjoyed.
The pessimist and the alarmist found
themselves hard pressed for occupa
ton. The increase of wealth and com
forts did not make the people careless
of their moral well being. The health
OF the physical body was accompanied
with a care for the moral welfare which
made the year notable from that point
of view. There were individual cases
which showed the dangers of wealth
in encouraging extravaganza hi reck
lessness of living. but these had little
effect except to emphasize the general
desire for wholesomeness and correct
ness which the American people usual
ly mnifest The prosperity in the chan
nels of trade and industry was attend
ed with a constant care for that which
is right n just.
1t was a year of investigation AMI re
form. Institutions which for man!
years had the respect and entire con
fdence of the people had their affairs
exposed to the world with a revelation
of surprising mismanagement and cul
pability N the part of long honored OF
fcials, some of whom were driven from
their places by the indignant outburst
of popular opinion. Corporations
which had grown fat on the returns
from their investments were proved
guilty of shameful carelessness and in
attention to matters affecting the pur.
ity and cleanliness OF their output,
some Of it representing food products
which found their way into millions
of homes. Men of wealth were forced
by insistent public demands to intro
duce reforms in their business which
cost them large amount OF money aft
er their bank books showed shrinkage
because of the withdrawal of public
confidence.
Public officials never were so closely
scrutinized. In many places expos
ures of graft" were followed by prose
cutions which sent hitherto honored
men to the penitentiary and made 9th,
ers more careful in the conduct of at
fairs. Economies and salutafy reform.

In the matter of wolf bounty Albany
county appears to have held its own
during the past two years. Up to Sep
TENDER 30, 1906, there had been paid
out of the fund for the destruction OF
animals $27,4SS, and of this amount Al,
bany county received $2,465. Coyotes
were killed in this county to the mum
Der of 1888 and black or gray wolves
to the number of $50. Sheridan and
Weston counties are the ones that fare
the worst through the operation of the
wolf bounty law. Sheridan county has
received 1924 and Weston county SS7G.
Crook got the most, $4,000. Crook County
borders on the Black Hills forest re-
serve, where black and gray wolves
abound.
