anything thing excepting the twenty four dollars they took from bowles he says bays they appeared to be rather green at the bu sinev the arizona settlements bro henry hobbs hobba writer from sunset crossing on the little colorado may iday to a friend in this city here is an extract I 1 have had bad some time timo to look around and I 1 can say in truth that this ia a good country for range farming land and umber timber we have an abunda abundance nce nee of dry and green cottonwood exten extending ding up and down the river for one hundred miles there Is a vast amount of driftwood washed washid upon the land which will lasu last for fuel for many years there are lots of pine logs amongst it alsoc cedar oak and ash asb etc it is oa on the level and we can get eight or ten loads a day the saw timber is thirty five miles distant our ca captain tain went out to look at it he says if is splendid timber and be he thinks there is enough on pue square mile to serve utah for ten years there is wind here but if we can once get gel our dam tight ight so that we me can get the water on otin taud tand we wo bau eau can bah stop a good deal of the dust from blowing I 1 I 1 expect if it was not riot for those winds it would be much warmer than what it is there thera is quicksand in the river consequent consequently fy it is difficult as yet to get a dam to hold hoid we have heard that at the two camps awen ty five miles above they have succeeded in getting a tight dam so perhaps they wil wll I 1 be able abie now to save bave their thein grain soen soon get ours done wo we shall not reap much of our wheat we have got in fifty acres some say bay it rains towards the last of juno and july if so this will help out we intend putting in about one hundred acres of corn we have good if falth faith ith we shall raise that because tte tie the indians ralea rais rals theirs without vit hout water vater it Is a good country to start the united order in A man cannot yo mo much alone alove what with water being hara hka ta get tout out and one thing and ni another other therb is some good rich bot bof bottom land thotis thousands aads dads upon thousands thou sanda of acres and if ame ab trials walt now j in a few years those trials will bo be overcome and this will become the home of thousands pres president ident youngs birthday today to day june juno is the anni anniversary venary of the day of tho the birth of president brigham young he being seventy five years old this day all his friends and they are legion will wish him continued health peace prosperity and happiness and many happy returns of the day As having performed a great work in the interests of humanity during the three quarters of a century he has lived he stands among the foremost of earths sons sone the oeding flooding Fl the people of the fifth ward are still suffering from the deflects of overflowing waters wister sj and no person who has not visited the locality can form lorm any idea of the vast amount of land that is now underwater all along on the west ide side of the city from below the ward bridge to the bridge that crosses the river on jordan street the jordan fordan itself having overflowed considerably yesterday I 1 at t various points and it is probable that it will do eo much more extensively before long it is questionable whether the road leading to the oth ward bridge will be at all passable ina lna in a few days dass from orom now the eold cold spell of last night caused the jordan to fall about five inches below what it was yesterday at the mouth of the city creek C livert on jordan street the stream is now under control and is only kept in that condition by supervisor hyde keeping a large number of men and teams at work there day and night there is a break however in the rockwork rock work north of the temple block and if it having once commenced the current should tear out the rocks to any extent great damage would be the result in the tho judgment of most roost people the various r dreams streams have not yet reached their greatest height so that the damage may be much more extended than it has been so fa far fan r |
