San Diego, Cal., May 23,1893.
Dear Friends of Saline:—I will
now try to fulfill the promise I made to
many of you, to send you through the
Observer, a description of my journey
to the far West.
We left Teeumseh, Mich., April 5th,
iu company with a party from Macon,
Mich., arriving-in Chicago, Thursday
morning, April 6th.
As we were obliged to remain in that
city all day, (for the excursion train
which we were to take did not leave
until six P. M.), we anticipated a visit
to the World's Fair grounds, hut the
weather was very cold and chilly, and
we decided that it would be for the best
comfort of all to remain in doors.
Just before our train left, we were
joined by the remainder of our party
numbering five more people from Cold-
water, Mich. This increased our party
to eleven persons, and a jollier lot of
travelers than we were, you never saw,
as we took our waiting train out of the
Great Western Metropolis.
The train was not making any oi the
.slowest time; but we managed to get
our share of Dame Nature's restorative,
"•Sweet refreshing sleep," and invoke
the next morning, Fi-idii-,*, April 7th,
fieitving Uie suburbs of one of our fine
large cities of the West, Kans-vs* Cltji,
Mo.-
On veapUlPg' Ulfe city a few minutes
past ten in the moi-aing, our entire
train, numbering fourteen carriage:',
was carefully examined, and at hall
past ten we loft the city behind us,
arriving at Topeka, Kan., between
twelve and one o'clock.
Topeka is tbe beautiful capitol city
of Kansas; its situation being very fine,
and surrounding country quite pretty;
but I do not think I would care to live
there, aUhough it is a much pleasanter
country than Missouri. The latter is
such a barren, lonely and desolate
place, that it looks as if the people
barely kept themselves from starvation.
Our train took up its journey out of
the city of Topeka and we soon arrived,
iff the City of Pueblo, Col., at about'ten
o'clock Saturday morning. ' As" the'
trUi'ii was b'eliuicl'timti in' crossing the

Wc left Pueblo early iu the afternoon
Saturday aud as evening was approaching, we came in full view of another
large city of Colorado—Leadville.
Leaving Le.'idville we continued our

by even the least observing.
Through most of the Rockies the
scenery is so very wild, that it would
make you shudder to see some of the
awful looking bowlders aud nrci:' niees

is scarcely any vegetation at all, but, fo-

Springs in the distance, we took another refreshing sleep and awoke the
next morning, Sunday, April 9th, to
find ourselves nearing Grand Junction,
Col., the chief city of Grand River
Valley, at the junction of the Grand and
Gunnison Rivers. It is said that Grand
Junction is destined to be the leading
city of western Colorado. This is one
of the most striking towns among the
mountains, its distance from Denver
being four hundred twenty-five miles.
For about two hundred sixty miles
beyond Grand Junction, no agricultural
country is to be seen as this is known
as the Colorado Desert; but, as water
for this region can be obtained from
the Grand River, not many years will
pass before the "Colorado Desert" will
be ranked with the geographical myth
of twenty years ago, "The Great American Desert."
The next place of most interesting
scenery is the Utah Valley. This
favored spot presents the appearance
of a well cultivated park. It has Arcadian beauty, aud resembles the description of the vales of Scotland. In
its center rests Utah Lake, formiug a
most beautiful little scene, which would
do no less than delight the eye of an
artist.
One of the strangest facts that I
noticed along through the Rockies, was
that of the bei'ding of cows, sheep and
goats op the bare rooks which looked
as if they had never had one glimpse
of vogotablu life. The animals did not
look much ns if they were very near
starving; but, as I looked out of the
car window and saw them eating something, apparently from nothing but
those wild barren crags, I thought that
Michigan sheep and cows would not
thrive long on such food as that.
Near ten o'clock Sunday forenoon we
entered the great Mormon capitol Salt
Lake City. It is said, that forty-one
years ago Brigham Young stood on
Ensign Peak.the "MOuhtOfProphecy,"
and announced to his follower's, that
down in "the valley' l3elow' should, be.
founded theVneV "City of' 2Son,"- the
future homo of tne Latter J^ay. Sy^"^?..

The location is snoh as to command a

of uiouuUUns, aud tho southern portion
of the lake, Tho streets are one hundred thirty-two fact wide and ari
bordered on ouch side with long rows
of shade trees. Streams of pure water
are conducted in ditches along both
sides of tho streets. The place of
greatet-t attraction for the tourist.here,
is Temple Square. In this are situated
the Mormon Temple, Tabernacle and
Assembly Hall. The Tabernacle is
immense in its proportions, the roof
resembling an upturned boat, and is
visible from nearly every part of the
city. Near by is The Hee Hi*:cs ,.„fS*;

Ae far as uuuld be learned,- the first
mention of Great *5,ilt Lake w;is made
by Baron Lallan ton iu 1(>S), who gathered from the- Western Indians some
vague notions of iis existence. '! he
most mysterious thing about this inland sea, aside from its saitness, is the
fact that it has no know" cm!; '.   -
Deserving Praise.
We desire to say to our citizens, that for
years we have been selling Dr. King's New
Discovery for Consumption, Dr. King's
New Life Pills, Bncklen's Arnica Salve and
Electric Bitters, and have never handled
remedies that sell as well, or that have
given such universal satisfaction. We do
not hesitate to guarantee them every time,
and we stand ready to refund the purchase
price, if satisfactory results do not follow
theirnse. These-remedies have won then-
great popularity purely on their merits.
