Now HERE COMES THE oL1NCnER
In Mr. Bhosidnn's dofcneo Of tho Firo Depart
mont: A 1rst~claas iiro-ongino can deliver from
400 to 600 gallons por minute. or 80, 600 gallons
rer hour. Work ton engines. and they require
5000 gallons per minute, or 80O,o00 por hour.
Now, II tho multiplied power Of ten engines ut
100 to 200 pounds each to the square inch
ejccts 100000 gallons per hour, where is tho
pressure to keep up the aupply2 1a tho preH-
sure OF 40 to 90 pounds ut q distance Of or s
miles equal to tho task, considering, too, tho
friction and waHtago to be overcome IN that dis
tance2 Certainly not. Is 1t any wonder, then,
continues Mr.. Sheridan, that cur fren,en aro fre-
quent1y compelled to walk mp to 4 furious tire to
allow tho water to dribble from tho nozzles OF
tlolr pipes7
Mr. Sheridan's argument in brief is, that our
watormatlls arc totally inadequate. either to dis
tribute tho regular supply Of water for domestic
purposoa, OF to supply cur onginea at tires.

result of their deliberations may be
summed up as follows: They passed res

government and the allotment Of their
lands, in severalty; protesting against
the Chickasaw survey and allotment; and
refusing to entertain the proposition to
adopt the negroes residing among them.
They appointed committee Of three
persons to go to Washington to effect a
settlement OF the boundary lines between
Arkansas and the Choctaw nation, and to
personally urge Congress not to pass the
territorial bill. They repudated the
Choctonian contract under which S75,.
