Vile one day last week.
Miss Maggie Brooks, of Fruit
dale is doing house work for Mrs.
Alex Guess, of this place, who is
having a severe attack of neu-
ralgia.
We see according to the papers
that that { (Honorable) ? set of men
in Chicago and New York that
call themselves the business men
of the country that corner nearly
all the grain Of the world had got
it in their (swell) heads to make
-four and other bread stuff go up.
What right have a few thieves to
sit In New York and Chicago and
tell US to 6 months in advance
what we shall pay for our -four
and get out of the grain that the
farmer has to sell?
If L had my way ! would either
send them to the pen or else L
would turn Mrs. Chadwick and all
others out, for it is just as much a
crime for the grain thieves of this
country to rob the poor of their
bread as it is for Mrs. Chadwick
to rob the rich. | am like Dick
Maple, sometimes almost feel
like saying d-n a country or law
that will send some poor man or
woman to prison for stealing a
loaf Of bread to keep their
children from starving and then
license set of thieves to rob the
poor. What do you think?

two our merchant Joseph White
will be connected with the outside
world by phone. We are as much
intereted in the phone as Joe, all
because Joe says we can talk to

else, and is a compliment to us
for our holding down store boxes
for Mr.. White nearly every even
ing in the week.
On last Saturday afternoon
Jacob Beavers and Joseph Beavers
went to Laurelville. On their re-
turn near Edward Featherolf's

In turning around, the buggy
was backed into ditch, when
Joseph Beavers thinking some
thing was going to happen made
leap for safety, but in 81 doing his
foot caught in the buggy wheel
and so wrenched his ankle that he
was hurried back to DR.. Twins Of
fee, into which he had to be car
ried. The DR.. said no bones were

tiful umbrella tree.
We have the sweet odor from
the orange blossom all the time.
We can see old "Baldy" and o. her
snow capped mountains all the
time, the air is so clear we can see
the paths leading to the tops of
the smaller o, es and can see pine
trees on part If them. The streets
are not d sty here as they sprinkle
them once year with crude oil
and they get very hard. The
walks are cement, product from
the mountains, They do not cost
near so much as our cement walks
in the east. The climate is de-
lightful, warm days and cool
nights to sleep. This is great
wheat country, but nights too cool
for much corn. We have met
more eastern people than natives
of this state AS much gold in
circulation here as green backs in
the east. Everything is very high
here, land out of sight. If you
own a ten acre ranch you are rich.
Spuds (potatoes) are $3.50 per
bushel, eggs and butter 45c in
winter, coal 60c per bushel, gas
75c and 81 90 per thousand, and
so on, instead of saying 25 or so
cents, they say two bits and four
bits. We all have splendid appe-
tites, if everything is high.
Well, to change the topic, we
have purchased five room cot
tage with bath, electric lights,
pantry and china closet, We
thought best to buy. as rent ls
very high. In the front yard we
have the umbrella trees, in the
rear two peach, TWO fig, two apple
and one apricot. Oh, yes, and
row of roses from front to rear of
lot and on the south side of house
are geraniums about five feet tall,
| never saw prettler ones.
While everything is beautiful
here, 1 think of Ohio every day,
and the good times at club, and
wish l could be with you all. We
will stay here one year to see what
the climate is all around, and if it
strikes us favorably we will. re-
main, and if not, you know the
result, back we will come to Ohio.
So far we like the country. There
are hundreds of automobiles here
and the towns are nearly all con-
Hected by electric car lines.
Will bought tub full of
oranges at SOC. never saw such
large ones, some of them measure
Is inches. When we come home
We will take the Salt Lake route,
as there is more scenery on that
line. The English walnuts were
damaged by frosts in the early
spring. The little Japs and
Cinnamon are the chief gardeners
here and come along with fresh
vegetables every morning. Our
goods reached US in fine condition
six weeks after leaving Logan.
Not a dish broken, for which /
was so glad. We are all tanned
almost beyond recognition. Well,
| will not make a newspaper of a
letter so will close for this time.
Each and every one of you take it
for granted this letter was written
personally to you and send me a
scratch of the pen, which will be
gladly received and answered.
Hope you are all we'll and having
good times as ever.

Railroad Men Blame Poor Steel for
Numerous Wrecks.

Chicago, April 23.-Bad steel rails are causing
many or the disastrous wrecks on American
railways, according to a statement made to-day
by some Of the most prominent operating Of
fcials in the United States who are in Chicago

Aided by chemists and metallurgists, COM

come to the conclusion that large percentage
of the steel rails manufactured to-day have the
latent flaw which causes them to snap and
break under the impact of fast train.

for presentation 10 the general meeting of the
association tomorrow is one by the committee
