An Eastern gentleman who was
in Salt Lake last week seemed par
ticularly interested in the mining
going on in Utah. He asked many
questions and took a deep interest
in the accounts of individuals who
had made fortunes in the business
of mining. At last after a pause,
lie looked up and said; "It seems
to me that mining is about the most
legitimate of industries. In the
east we raise grain and live stock
and make wagons and are engaged
in all manner of work, but the ob
ject, after all, is to get money for
what we do or produce. . Why is it
not better to go for the money
direct? Then there is another
thing. We plant our wheat and
worry all winter to know whether
it will winter-kill or not. Then, if
it escapes the spring frost and the
insects and there is a promise of a
great crop, we wonder if it will not
be so heavy as to cut down the
price. It a man gets money out of
a mine he c!o:s not injure any of
his neighbors."
The man had begun to see things
from the right standpoint, com
ments the Salt Lake Tribune. Men
are all struggling for money. No
matter what may be the occupation,
the object is at last to convert
something into money. All the
money that the world possesses
has come from the mines. There
is no way to produce it from any
other source.
It may have been taken last year
from the Klondike; it may have
been dug by the Incas in Peru; it
may have been taken by the Ro
mans from their mines in Spain;
but no matter, it is the same inde'
'structible measures of values', and
not more truly following an irre
sistible law do the tides ebb and
flow, than does civilization advance
and recede, uccordiiirr to the
volume of a country's legitimate
money. Hence no work ts more
honorable, none more legitimate.
The dollar that the miner wrenches
from the stubborn rock is a new
creation. It was no other man s,
it lessens the value of no property
that any man possesses; it will
command recognition everywhere,
and barbarous as well as civilized
man knows its value. It sleeps in
its matrix in darkness and silence
until some miner blasts down the
doors that lead into its chamber,
and. when awakened it at once be
gins to take on its proportion of
man's burden, and it carries it on
forever.
Surely there is no higher em
ployment than to study how it was
originally concealed and to find and
bring it out to the light. The men
of the East point to their mighty
works on sea and land with a just
pride, but certain it is no men of
like number have done so much to
change the face of the world as
have the men who since 1849 have
been keeping in flow the stream of
treasure that in that year was set in j
motion eastward from California,
and which has been kept flowing
on and on with increasing volume
ever since. They really have
changed the face of our republic,
they have kept the arteries of busi
ness bounding with ever increasing
vigor, and no work is quite so legi
timate as mining.
It is estimated that there were
about five hundred thousand fruit
trees planted in Montana this
season. This of itself would be no
slouch of an orchard, but the state
is estimated to have ten times that
number of thrifty, healthy trees,
one-fourth of whjch have come
into bearing, and the crop will in
crease from year to year as the
bearing trees become older and the
younger trees come into bearing.

The Coquille Bulletin last week
said the father of a 1 7-year-old young
lady, in that place, told the editor
a funny story about a young man
who stopped at his home one night
lately. The young man called on
bis daughter to spend the evening,
and when he got ready to leave he
realized that a heavy rain was rag
ing. He had no umbrella or rub
ber coat and when the girl's father
asked him to remain at the house
he readily consented. He is a
very bashful young man, and next
morning when be was invited to n
seat at the table very reluctantly
accepted. He was very nervous
and agitated. He sat opposite a
mirror and saw that he bad for
gotten to comb his hair; then be
dropped his fork on the floor and
as he stopped to pick it up he up
set his cofiee. Matters went from
bad to worse until finally in despair
the young man quit eating and put
bis hands under the table. The
loose folds of the table cloth were
lying in his lap, and when he
touched it he turned pale. He
thought it was bis shirt and in his
nervous excitement while dressing
had forgotten to put the garment
inside his trousers. That accounted
for the smiles and embarrassment.
There was no time to lose. He
hurriedly stuffed the supposed
shirt inside his trousers. Two
minutes later when the family arose
from the table there was a crash.
The dishes lay in a broken mass on
the floor; the young man pulled
two feet of table cloth out of his
trousers and fled through the door.
He is yet in the backwoods of his
home near here. The young lady
he caile"d"bn 15 "open for engage
ment to a less nervous young man.
WEEKLY CROP BULLETIN.
The past week has been dry, ex
cept during Wednesday local
showers occurred in the southern
and eastern sections of the state.
These rains were very beneficial to
the ranges and to root crops, but
they are not general enough to
wholly relieve the droughty con
ditions prevailing in that section,
and more rain is still needed in all
parts of the state for late crops;
The week, on the whole, was
slightly cooler than the previous
one, and generally favorable for
the ripening of grain and fruit.
Thrashing is now in active pro
gress in all parts of the state and
the yields are generally turning out
better than expected.
Hops are a little backward, but
the crop promises to be an average
one in quantity and above the aver
age in quality. The lice are doing
no damage and the only complaint
made is that the soil is too dry for
rapid growth. Tho potato crop is
being shortened somewhat by
drouth, but no injury has so far
occurred through insect pests, and
with good rains in the near future
the potato crop will be nearly an
average one. Corn shows slight
improvement, but it is still back
ward. Range grass is getting poor
and stock continues to lose in flesh.
Fruit of all kinds is making good
advancement, except that m
Marion nnd Benton counties the
Italian prunes are reported to be
dropping more than usual. Apples
are doing nicely.
