TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION. One year, Six months, Three months. 12.00 1.00 .75 Senatok Brown ha written a letter let-ter to Mr.. John C. Graham of Provo trying to square himself on his late straddle, but In our judgment he has only thrown on the Roentgen ray and left a grinning skeleton exposed. Miniko excitements are springing up on all sides and the indications are becoming more apparent every day that Brigham Young had mighty good judgment if not prophesy when he It-crated It-crated and reiterated tha claim that valuable metals would be found in rich abundance in the hills that surround sur-round these valleys. Oru suggestions regarding the city jail were not meant to imply a lack of claanliness on the part of those in charge but an utter impossibility to maintain that condition that should exist in such places ami the great danger jrorn lire and health of those who may be so unfortunate as to be incarcerated in its gloomy ind close, uuhealtuy quarters. Sbmator Cannon has made his first speech in Congress, he sharply criticises criti-cises Secretary Hoke Smith for his recent response to the Senate resolution resolu-tion as to Indian lands. Cannon characterizes char-acterizes the secretary's action as discourteous, dis-courteous, misleading and evasive and protested In behalf of the West against the lack of Information and intelligent intelli-gent action by the secretary on matters mat-ters affecting the Western country. A scb-committek of the Senate committee on territories has unanimously unani-mously reported to the full committee commit-tee in favor of the Catron bill for tha admission of New Mexico to Statehood, State-hood, and its friends think a majority of the committee will agree to its be-favorably be-favorably reported to the Senate. But. even if reported and passed President Cleveland's recent remarks about ter ritorles and new states Indicate that it would be vetoed. The Pescret News finds itself aealn Under the necessity of throwing up its pious paws in holy horror a at measure that is destined to assist newspapers whereby reporters are to be protected against using compelled to disclose their source of Information. This time its would-be denunciations arc more directly felt at borne where daily pa-pert pa-pert are circulated and now the Tribune Tri-bune has shown the News a few of Its Inconsistencies. Oh! when will the News learn that unity of fraternal Interests is as essential as some other things they are prono to urge. The Mutual Improvomcnt associations associa-tions have placed their library, containing con-taining over 100 good books, in The Independent office for the convenience of the various members. It ought to be well patronized as It Is the only public library in town, the books are well selected, and nearly all our young folks are members of tho M. I. A. hence are entitled to the free use of the books. The Independent will gladly give space to the announcement announce-ment of any donations to the library and In behalf of the M. I. A. Invites contributions to it. The American Fork Item very gravely tells It's readers that they ought not to give away to the fearful habit of "gosslpplng" truly a bad habit, but from an occasional 'perusal of the Item's columns this detestable detest-able habit seems to be the prevailing accompaniment to their "spice, "hence their advlce.while It may be all right, comes with some what poor grace from such a source; only last week thc r columns were reeking with a report of two young ladles who had unfortunately allowed their tempers to displace their good Judgment and engaged In the somewhat unusual pastime of a fist fight or 'scratching bee." Undoubtedly the fracas gavt ample material for the local gossips to tse for a long time to come, but for the local paper to parade such a thing s that before the whole world was actually a disgrace and the two lady disciples of Sullivan, Corbett, et al., hould call a truce and give the repor-torlal repor-torlal force of the Item a good thrash-Jug. thrash-Jug.

A great many parents are feeling indignant at the supposed imparta-t imparta-t ion of the great "comet bump" infor-formation infor-formation that was to take place last Saturday, to the children by their school teachers. The writer has made a partial canvass of the teachers but cannot so far locate the informant and we believe our teachers did not say that anything disastrous was to occur, and that the idea of such was probably created by some teacher who In an attempt to explain the phenomena phenom-ena of tbe comet, its probable path, and, perhaps,some of the foolish ideas that were being Jocularly (and sometimes some-times earnestly bandied about regarding regard-ing the effects of a collision with our planet, thereby giving the children a chance logo off half-cocked as it were and as a result a wide spread fear was created among the children. Teachers Teach-ers should be careful of their talks with the children for, as a matter of fact, the information that is Imparted by them to the children is accepted more literally than that of the parents They should exercise great care to see that their remarks and instructions, are fully understood by their charges. Don't ollow them to gooff half-cocked for iLen I heir good work goes for naught and sometimes, the seeds of wrong information, distrust, and worse than all, lack of confidence In their teacher a condition that may destroy the fabric of the child's whole character.

From Cincinnati Gazette: Will peo-gle peo-gle never learn that a "cold" is an accident to be dreaded, and that when it occurs . treatment should be promptly applied? There is no knowing know-ing where the trouble will end; and while complete recovery Is the rule, the exceptions are terribly frequent, and thousands upon thousands of fatal illnesses occur every year ushered ush-ered I u by a little injudicious exposure expos-ure and seemingly trifling symptoms. Beyond this, there are today countless invalids who can trace their complaints com-plaints to "colds", which at the time of occurrence gave no concern, and were therefore neglected. When troubled with a cold use Chamberlain's Chamber-lain's Cough Remedy. It is prompt and effectual. 25 and 50 cent bottles for sale by Meneray & Co. The U. S.

One reason fur the lack of interest in poultry on tbe part of the farmers Is the failure to niauage the flock in a manner to secure the largest returns j possible. It is an astonishing fact that a majority of tbe farmers are lncap-' able of classifying poultry. They know very little in regard to the different breeds, and although they recognized the importance of breed In animals, yet they permit their fowls to hecome Inbred, and take no care regarding the j uniformity of the flock, or of the eggs and dressed carcasses derived there-! from. Did any farmer ever calculate how much he loses from keeping scrub fowls? If we estimate the price ol eggs for the entire year at 20 cents per dozen, and the flock to number fifty hens, the difference of only one egg per month from each hen (a dozen eggs per year) wjll entail the "loss of ten dollars. Will it not pay, then, to use a breed that will permit of each hen laying one egg more in a month? Viewed from this standpoint.the common com-mon hen Is a costly luxury. We do not class grades or crosses as scrub, but the common barn yarn fowl that is bred from any source, or by accident. Tbe pure breeds can be made to perform per-form the services characterist ic of the breed selecte d, and when the farmer gives poultry the same attention in breeding poultry as is devoted to the larger stock, he will And thot, In proportion pro-portion to capital invested, noultry will prove the most profitable utock on the farm. Poultry Keeper. j Simon S. Hartman, of Tunnelton, West Virginia, has been subject to attacks of colic about once a year, and would have to call a doctor and then suffer for about twelve hour as much as some do when they die. He was taken recently just the same as at other times, and concluded to try Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Di-arrhoea Demedy. He says: "I took one dose of it and it gave me relief in five minutes. That is more than any thing else has ever done forme." For sale by Meneray & Co.
