... HEARING

The Wyoming delegation stress
ed the fact that the state of Wy

the water used by the surrounding
states and that that state is In
terested in seeing all of it put to
a beneficial use. It's delegates urg-

urged the impounding Of water
on the Powder river for irrigation
purposes and to prevent damage
by flood.
The construction of a dam spn
the Big Horn, at the mouth Of the
canyon, for irrigation purposes was
also urged. It was shown that it
would also be valuable from the
standpoint of power production,
flood and silt control.

which representatives from all the
sugar factory districts of Montana
and Wyoming were present and
gave testimony in behalf of the
beet growers and the labor en-
ployed by them.
The beet laborers, who are being
paid $23 per acre for hand labor,
this year, ask that it be increased
to $25 per acre, this year, and that
they be paid $50 per acre for the
1888 crop.
The employers of beet labor
pointed out that while willing to
pay the scale now in vogue, thev

more, unless there is an increase
next year in the price of sugar

Big Horn county is the only
county in the above list which has

that there are more pheasants in

and continues five days longer-to

praise to him because of these
traits of honesty, humility and an
understanding way of getting
along with people.
DR.. Geo. Pitt Beers, the execu-
tive secretary of the American
Baptist Home Mission Society has
written thus about John Frost: Il
do not remember ever having met
a man who upon sight has made
such an impression of nobility and
fineness as he did. He is an honor
to his people and I rejoice that
the Home Mission Society could
make it possible for him to live
the life of usefulness he did"
While all these things are fine
and give a glimpse of the quiet
greatness which John Frost pos
sessed, we miss the key to the
stabilizing influence in his active
service unless we give credence to
the sacrificial efforts of his good
wife. For in all the joys and adj
versities of their forty two years
of married life she has been his
inspiration-the one who, through
sheer mental effort, gave him
courage and bolstered his spirits
when the way ahead looked risky
and uncertain. To Judge a man
truly one should know his wife. So
in paying tribute to John Frost
may we be ever mindful of the
help and announcement given
him by his faithful wife who,
through these retirement years,
has literally given of herself that
he might live.

Your able Manners

An admonition for Christmas and all-year-round guests .. It is an offense to seize the salt and pepper shakers and dust them over food at least until you've tasted 1t to see how 1t suits your taste. The inference being that you know beforehand that the cook Is lax with her seasoning.
 If after food has been tasted you should decide that you'd like more salt, put 1t on as unob- trusively aS possible. Nothing 50 troubles Q very good cook as to be forced to watch e guest ad- minister e good salting to dishes he hasn't yet tasted, and which she knows are more salty than he suspects.
 Should the hostess happen to make some remark on this point which she of course shouldn't the polite guest may cover Up his error by insisting that he eats too much saltl
 The same rule would apply to the use of sugar on buildings and in fruit cups. Taste first; season later. It can be done so sketchily that it's hardly noticed.
