The Democratic Press.

! This paper, which is one of the larg-
est, most influential, and has the largest
list Of Subscribers Of any paper in the
west, has also the largest printing estsb-
iishnens west 81 New York. Every
thing in the line Of printing is dcae up

was task which Involved not only a
heavy capit.l, but also vas. amount of
energy and perseverance. We found
that no sooner was one steam press erect
ed, than mother was wanted and no
sooner WIS one floor covered with ma

had to b. addsd, till our job rooms now
occupy an area Of some ten thousand
square feet. where can be heard the music
OF serentleA steam power presses, which,
for larg, portion of the year, we keep

number Of new presses necessary, but the

more improved nature. For instance,
in the MATER Of card printing. Tho old
card presses were found inadequate, and
hence the introduction of the Fire Fly.
which has worked wondcrs, and proved
to b. the most profitable machine ever
invented; and now three Of these are
running in our job rooms, two Of which
print, cut, and count cards at the rate of
10000 each, aud one at the rate of
$4,000 per hcur, without the aid of hui

OTTAWA, June 1901.
Since my last letter had n.ilcd to your
address from Toronto copy OF the Re-
port of the commissioners of Public
Works, containing statistics and quot :
tions used in that letter. From the in
terest you evinccd in the Georgian Bay
and Toronto scheme, ! judge yos. west
crn people have something dependent on
the selection of the shortest, cheapest and
safest communication by water between
the eastern seaboard and Lake Michigan
Although their aid may not be asked to
open the Ottawa route, and though their
sympathies may be enlisted in favor of
other channels, they shall nevertheless
be fully aware of the character of river
which will be a crushing Of any other
channel which may exist. | am aware
of the gigantic proportions assigned to
your western productiveness, and of your
estimates of its future expansion, over
flowing all probable outlets; but you have
in the grand Riviere du Nord feature
grand and majestic as any Of those which
have conferred on our country the title of
great
A few words about the character of the
Ottawa Its entire length is over eight
hundred miles. 1t drains over eighty
| thousand square miles of territory.
Some Of its tributaries pass three hun
dred miles in length, while twenty of
them average over two hundred each.
The dimension of the river between the
shores expand as you ascend it Its
outlet forms the Island of Montreal
Two hundred miles above that it con-
tains an Island twenty miles in length
from six to ten miles wide. Twenty
miles farthsr another of equal size. Be-
yond this it stretches, dark and transpa-
rent, along the base of the lofty lauren
tides, twenty-five miles in straight line,
with a brodth of mile, and depth of
twenty fathoms. Four hundred and
thirty miles from Montreal it exhibits a
smooth expanse of sixty-seven miles in
length, with an average bredth of six
miles. While bending south to the sour
ces of the st. Maurice Saguenay, it gath
ers into lakes hundreds Of miles in super
fetal area.
/ need say little as to its capacity for
improvements. Locks and dams are all
required to make it navigable. After
the sections in hand are complete, chan
mel three hundred feet wide has been laid
down for one hundred and fifty miles
above this city, average depth thirty to
sixty feet.
This river is surpassed by none in
America for beauty OF scenery. The by
draulic power evolved in the descent of
this volume of water from its water shed,
from six hundred to seven hundred feet,
may be r:ckoned equal to the grinding of
all the cereal products of the great West,
and the cutting of the lumber required
for the country Of the Buffaloes. So
much for the river III its native state.

From the xa,uoketa Republican

About the hour Of ten o'clock, on
Thursday last, an armed body Of men,
numbering from forty to sixty persons
passed through Maqaoketa on their way
to Dewitt, for the purpose Of obtaining
the murdcrcrs, Rargcr and the lrishman
(Carroll). Arriving in Dewitt, but little
resistance was shown by the officials, and
the two Jackson county prisoners, consc-
uucntly, were taken from the Clinton 60.
Jail, and brought back to Andrew.
The fact of there being so small num-
Der COMPRISING he Vigilance Committee,
and their passing in broad daylight thro'
the most populous portions of dickson
and Clinton counties, must be evidence
sufficient that the people have but little
laws. That Barger was a most consum-
mate black hearted, murderous fend in
human shape, is clearly shown in the
skulkiug, sneaking, dastardly manner in
which he killed his wife, the facts Of
which are well known to our readers.
Arriving in Andrew, he was taken to
the same tree that Clifford was executed
upon; the arms of Barger were piuioned,
a handkerchief tied over his face, the
rope was adjusted round his neck, the
end thrown over the limb, the word given
by the Captain, and as many as could get
hold of the rope drew the unhappy
wretch from his mother earth, and thus
he was launched into eternity, in the
presence of three or four hundred spec
tators. We are informed that there was
not Que to plead for his life.
All looked on with that cool indiffer-
ence, indicative of the feeling fully ex-
pressed ''he deserves it,"
That we deplore, nay, depreeate, the
causes that have led to this, we may
almost say, in:tfaceable stain upon the
fair escutcheon of our county, is already
known. That the law was sluggish is
evidenced in the time that Barger has
been suffered to lay in Jail at the expense
of the county, even when it was judg-
ed and positively known that he was
guilty.
After the hanging of Barger, it was
put to vote whether Carroll, (the Irish
MANI should be hung, or handed over to
the Andrew jailor, to await his trial at
the next term of the District Court, when
the latter was adopted without dissent
ing voice. There was also a fast youth
confined in the Andrew Jail for stealing a
watch some seven months ago, who was
taken from the Jail, and advised by the
Committee to leave the county, whercup-
on he "took up his line of march" The
horse-thief broke Jail on Thursday even
ing last, and was not turned loose az re-
ported.
We have thus endeavored to give
brief sketch of this much to-be-regretted
occurrence. We had no reporter upon
the ground, consequently are unable to
give the particulars in detail. We earn
estly trust and hope that this may be the
asst case of lynehing in jackson County,
and God grant, the last murder.

but avowed purpose to 60 as far as the
farthcst in On effort to make Kansas a

Kansas he made an effort to organize the
Democratic party; but those. men who
had now organized the national Demo-

and the Kansas laws had given him a
great deal of trouble in that campaign,
and he hoped never to see thoir like again.
He had much filth in the Democratic
party, and would not be kicked out of it
by the small affair called national democ-
racy in Kansas. He had faith in Bu-
chanan, but he must say, if Mr. Buchan-
an intend ID to damn the Democratic par
ty, he thought he was pursuing line of
policy in his appointments for this Ter
ritory well calculated to damn i. so deep
that the hand of resurrection could never
reach it. He did not blame the Presi-

quietly, and the pro-slavery' party were
not in pluck, and never will be again
