TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION. One year, Six months, Three months. 12.00 1.00 .75 TEI GOVERNOR'S SPECIAL MESSAGE. Governor Wells has Issued a special message to the. Legislature, dealing with the financial conditions of the State. It is a paper that is eminently pertinent to the situation, and one vt the strongest State or Territorial papers ever issued, were it not for a taint of partisanship in iU reference to his "party"', lie says: The party charged with the responsibility respon-sibility of legislation has had committed com-mitted to it a great trust, for the faithful execution of which the people will hold It to the strictest accountability. accounta-bility. If it shall succeed in performing perform-ing its responsible duties honestly, faithfully and economically, and use its power for the geueral good, its tJtness for public trust will be demonstrated dem-onstrated anew, and the people will know where to repose their confidence again. 'Tarty interests, etc.," arc words that should become obsolete in any executive's vocabulary as soon aa be hall take his seat. All people can endorse his recommendation Irrespective Irre-spective of politics, but when they have to be "coated" with partisan Incentives In-centives to a perpetuation of power it immediately nauseates his opponents, besides some of his colleagues and can do no good, for as a matter of fact, a wise executire, with a harmonious corps of officers who do effective and good work will be fully recognized by the people or if not the folltician who stumps for the next campaign will see that not only the governor but all efficient men with their great deeds enlarged on fully without this ante-'blow-your-own-horolsm" that comes with poor grace from the chief executive. , MORE HiTSISDISM. Last week we called attention to an element of hayseedism in Springvllle at our public places of assembly by the alignment of tho sexes. There is till another sign of "countryism"' that is pprtinent to this subject. This is tho abominable practice we have of posting notices around our public buildings, the postoffice being the special prey of these cheap advertisers adver-tisers who can't afford to do their advertising ad-vertising in a legitimate way. So they take a piece of paper and dash off an execrable notice without regard to chirograph?, orthography, or skill of any kind, and up it goes in the post-office, post-office, until now our neat postoffice presents the appearance of the village store of a town of two or three farm houses and not a city ot over 3,000 population. The first impression that strikes a visitor who calls at the poit-offic poit-offic is that we have a decidedly country town. Postmaster Thorn Is too lenient by half. He permits some ono to place a nicely framed card In the postoffice; then along come Tom, Dick and Harry and daub his neat little office bo that it looks like an old drunk in the throes of delirium tremens. Why don't some of these cheap advertisers daub up the Bank or Deal's or Reynolds's Rey-nolds's store? Because there is a law against it. So there Is in the post-office post-office laws, and its only because Mr. Thorn Is lenient that he is impos d on. Salt Lake, Ogden and Pro to offices are not afflicted with such things and Springvllle comes in tho fourth city in importance in Utah. Why should we be Imposed on by this class of impecunious advertisers? That our Western papers grasp "silver straws' too eagerly Is again shown by the recent fiasco. This sop is thrown to us Just to stave off the great revolution that is bound to come ooner or later and the more often our papers grasp these "silver straws" or so-called hopes of any silver legislation a th7 are thrown to tw, Hi longer will definite act ion be deferred and the greater the severity of the revolution. We of the West may as well realize now as at any time, that the East will not give us silver until they are forced to. We may divide on any other theme but let us staud firm on this point. Newspapers oujfhtnot to advertise those crumbs of hope as they are thrown at us from those Eastern politicians who are so thoroughly tinctured witn goldocracy and shrewd tactics. They only retard the good work by inspiring hope when there is none they are all will-o-the-wisps. Thk Tribune says: "If there are any old soldiers here who draw pensions, pen-sions, they must be careful to send double postage on their vouchers, or their letters will go to the Dead Letter office. It has been the custom of the pension 'agent to pay it, but recently orders have been Issued that the Government will not rc-imburse officials who pay such postage. Pensioners Pen-sioners should remember that It takes four cents to pay the postage on a pension voucher." By the new process of photography, xography or Dr. Eeentgrn's new method, one can sue the bones in ones body, and this opens up another unlimited un-limited field In science even greater than that of electricity, this being an active agency In its execution. Tdk Utah delegation at Washington, Washing-ton, Senators Cannon and Brown and Representative Allen, have our sincere sin-cere thanks for the current numbers of the Congressional Record. So Dr. Nansen has found the North Pole wonder If he caught any fish with it? Kent bat Aysr i st tk World's Fsir. Ayer's Sarsaparilla enjoys the extraordinary extra-ordinary distinction of having been the only blood purifier allowed an exhibit ex-hibit at the World's fair, Chicago. Manufacturers of other sarsaparillas sought by every means to obtain a showing of their goods, but they were all turned away . under the-appHca-tion of the rule forbidding the entry of patent medicines and nostrums. The decision of the World's fair au thoritles in favor of Ayer's Sarsaparilla Sarsapar-illa was in effect as follows: "Ayer's Sarsaparilla is not a patent medicine. It does not belong to the list of nostrums. nos-trums. It is here ou Its merits." Ciltivstiag Orohsrdi. Cultivate In such a manner that the land willl be uniform fine tilth. Every good farmer knows that the value of his crop depends more upon the tilth of the soil than upon the richness of it. Fertility Is largely locked up In poorly tilled lands. Orchards which are ploughed late In spring are usual ly in bad condition all the season, es pecially if the soil Is clay. Fall ploughing plough-ing upon stiff and bare lands is apt to result in the puddling of the soil by rain and snow; if there is sod on the land, this injury is less likely to fol low. In general, It is best to let orchard or-chard lands pass the winter under a catch crop. L. H. Bailey. Thrtw Away His Osbm- Mr. D. Wiley, ex-postmaster, Black Creek N. Y., was so badly atfl.cted with rheumatism that he was only able to hobble around with canes.and even then it caused him great pain.
