The Jim Hawks
Barn Burned

On last Saturday afternoon
the large barn on the Jim Hawks
farm south Of town caught fire
from some unknown cause and
burned entailing a total loss.
Besides the barn three head of
horses, fifteen hogs and three
yearling calves, fifteen or twenty
tons of hay, 100 bushels of corn
together with all harness was
destroyed. Mr.. Hawks carried
only $500 worth Of insurance on
the barn and contents.
About March 18th the men
had been filling the hay-loft with
hay and it seems that the fire
started in the loft, but from
what cause has not been found
out. Mr.. Hawksis Of the opinion
that it originated from spontan-
eOuS combustion.
It will be remembered that
last fall Mr.. Hawks lost his house
and contents by fire and his wife
was SO badly burned that she
died later from the effects, and
now the burning Of his barn
coming at this time Of the year,
when it is needed very much,
makes it a hard blow on Mr..
Hawks. Jim aid his wife had
just decided last fall before
their home burned that they
had worked hard for number
of years and had saved little
money, and after the effects of
that fire Mr.. Hawks was consid-
cradle loser, only having a small
insurance. Now another fire
coming SO soon after the first
one, he is loser, from the loss of
stock, hay, feed. harness and
the barn something over $4,000,
and it is sure hard luck for a
man to see his savings go up in
smoke.
Jim's many friends in these
parts are sorry over his loss, but
trust that he will stay and build
up again and show the fire-fend
that there are plenty of men
around here who will make a
success even when the direful
odds seem to be against them.

Oil Company
Now Located

The latter part of last week
the little city Of Wibaux added
another business institution to
its already large and growing
list. The Hughes Oil Co., of
which Q. S. Drake is the local
manager, installed tanks and
will proceed to handle the oil
business of this city and county
in an amiable manner.
The Company has two 10000
gallon tanks, and besides this
they have a large shed where
hard oils and all kinds Of lubri-
eating oils are kept and this shed
IS built so that a team can drive
right in and close the doors, a
protection in case Of bad wealth
er. The right-a-way is just back
or the elevator on this side of the
tracks, a great advantage to the
farmers. Mr.. Drake will have
10000 gallons Of gasoline and
the same amount Of kerosine at
all times, besides a complete
stock Of the various other oils
This company also has tanks at
Glendive and Beach.
Until about the middle Of last
summer, the Continental Oil Co.
a branch of the Standard Oil
Co., had a monopoly on the oil
business in this city and great
deal of i'll feeling sprang up at
that time, which necessitated
Mr. Drake hauling oil from
Beach with his dray line. 1t
was soon discovered that the
Hughes Oil. esnecially the gaso-
line. gave better service, and as
some stated, an automobile
would run considerable further
on one gallon of Hughes Oil than
on one Of the Continental Oil
Co.'S. The demand became so
great for the Hughes oil that
Mr.. Drake began arrangements
for tanks to be placed at this
point and after considerable de-
lay and trouble, matters became
settled and last week the tanks
were installed for the first time.
Mr.. Drake is only allowed to sell
at wholesale or in barrel lots. |
but now our city has competition !
in the oil business and both COM
panies will possibly place less
water in the oils and the people
of this city will profit thereby. !

plural wives at the present time,
but fifty years ago it was not SO
difficult, for the reason that as
yet they had not been molested.
| am of the opinion that plural
marriages have been exag-
gerated, for the reason that ex-
penses are increased. SO far as
| know the powers" did not en-
join polygamy in case where the
means would not hold out. Most
of those in easy circumstances
had more than one wife and
separate establishment for each.
Then there were some-"l logging
it -" drinking out of the same
trough" Not much, if anything
was heard of divorces nor of
quarrels.
1t is plain now, after the ex-
perience at Independence and
Nauvoo, that the Mormons
should not have been permitted
to set up a kingdom anywhere
within the States or Territories.
1t is almost impossible to believe
that our people, so sensitive,
should not have foreseen the con-
sequences. What difference is
there between a state and a terri
toryY Both are under the same
flag. To err is human, but if
one prefers to walk backwards
instead of forward this seems
ridiculous.
But it seems, that long after
the Mormons had set up "shop"
in Utah, another opportunity
presented itself for a settlement
of the question. The Command
er of our army, at Camp Doug
lass, (Gen Harvey, l think
sent an ultimatum to Brigham
Young who ignored it because he

ney. At any rate, the Mormon
soldiers, after Young's explana,
ton, agreed to comply with the
ultimatum. Of course Young
had gained nothing, save the i'm
preston on his troops that he
had achieved a great victory.
|. Had Gen. Harvey not been inter
fered with he would have shelled
the Citidel, and either dispersed
or captured the enemy. The peo-
Lple back in the states would at
last have been awakened and a
very different attitude would
have been assumed toward the
Mormon hierarchy. The

AS TO THE NOR.
MON CHURCH
Concluded from LIST page.


many entertainments were given
at the Camp, including dancing
and festivity in general, greatly
adding to the spice of life. The
roadway from city to camp was
splendid, never muddy nor even
dusty. The great Tabernacle,
seating about 5000 persons, was
completed, and it may be worth
while TO mention the great choir
of 100 trained singers, whose
performance was certainly equal
to the best in that line. 1t was a
veritable sight to see the crowds
on Sunday morning vending their
way TO the Tabernacle. Metho-
dists used to use the term,
meeting house." and so the
Mormons sometimes called theirs
the "shearing house." compl-
mentary, to the gentiles, hiking
behind the caravan. Practical
ly all the Mormons went to
church, at least Sunday morning,
while the crowd was scarcely less
in the evening.
Brigham Young had erected a
theater, which compared favor
ably with any in the east, and in
some respects surpassed them.
For instance, the waiting room
and dressing stalls behind the
stage, were as neat and well kept
as any other part. There was, of
course, the regular local stock
company, all of whom must be
well hammered. There were no
ballet girls in tights. Stars were
imported from the East. Julia
Dean Hayne and Waldron were
then the eastern contingent. In
the local company there was a
Miss Alexander, a niece of, or
adopted by, Brigham Young
don't remember. She was grace
full, sprightly and fair to look
upon. Waldron had gotten a lit
tie gay" with the maiden,-
who wouldn 't-Y-thought the
audience. But Brigham Young
next day pushed button
like this-Waldron can play
Macbeth or Macduff, but he
can't play Alexander. What
''she" thought of this was her
own secret. There was a Dance
Hall, also erected by Young, well
arranged for most any social
meeting. 1t was not very easy
for us gentiles to get ticket OF
admission because, first, there
must be AN invitation. / had the
honor of dancing a cotilion IL

| was struck by one thing, tina
the Mormons seldom, if ever
sought any contribution from
gentiles for any purpose whatso
ever. But / may have seen some
things of this kind, in a case o
charity for a gentle, in-bad
luck. Reputable, well hammered
folks were treated just the sam
as anywhere else. Schools wer
in favor, and there were severa
in the city, well attended.
Missionary work was very
much alive; no male, if called
could refuse. However, nom
were sought save those supposed
to have the proper talent. Man,
converts were taken across tn
plains in wagons prior to the ad
vent of the railways, and man,

were kept secret. There was
