No American, probably. ever po-
sessed the secret Of personal infiu-
ence over men. and knew 80 well how
to use it, as did Henry Clay.
His secret lay In his warm heart
and remarkable memory. He never
forgot favor or q face. His jour-
neys to Washington were performed
slowly on horseback, or in the leath-
er-hung stages which crossed the
mountains. Every shop-keeper or
negro hostler on the way claimed
@old Henry Clay" as his personal
friend. An old gentleman gives US
the following reminiscence of him:
II lived In little Village on the
National Road. One evening, when /
was boy Of fourteen, was closing
my fathers store for the night, when
tall, ungainly. keen-eyed man en-
tered hurriedly. I had seen his pic

my veins.

ceiye Clay as the candidate for Pres

OF citizens and soldiers went out to
meet him. I was an awkward coun-
try lad and 1 followed In the crowd.
The leading politicians. all tie great
men of the town, were in front.
~On reaching the little roadside
inn, a muddy hack showed that Mr..
Clay had arrived. The next moment
he was out on the porch. There was
a deafening cheer. His eye swept
over the crowd, and he singled me
out. He held out his hand.

Bismarck weekly tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, D.T. [N.D.]) 1875-1878, 1878-06-21

The only legitimate point raised against
the Missouri River country is that, in
some places the water is imprcgnatcd with
alkali, although the Missouri river itself
is remarkably pure water. Although a
muddy, turbid stream, yet, when allowed
to settle, it is as palatablc as the finest
spring water. The ice taken from it is Of
the purest character. Many of the wells
in Bismarck furnish water of an excellent
quality. One at a depth Of sixteen feet
seems to be inexhaustiblc. Good water
is here in abundance, but in some places
is reached only at considerable depth. 10
test this water question, and to learn what
lies beneath, it would be an excellent idea
to sink an artcsian we'll in some central
location for public use. In conversation
with DR.. j. Ii. Guild, when here, he took
great interest in the project, and authorized
the writer to draw on him for one hundred
dollars if four hundred more could be
raised, to sink we'll as far as it would go,
which would probably be all sufficient
Something might be developed which
would be of incalculable value to the city.
A flowing well of pure water would be
worth trying for, while the amount ncces-
sary to test it could bc raised in sums
which would not be seriously felt by any
one 1t seems to us worth while to take
the chances of trying it Other localities
have done this, and some of them have
results worth thousands of dollars.

The stcamboatlng interests Of Bismarck
have increased to proportions which seem
TO warrant some effort on our part to pre-
pare winter quarters FOR those whose own
crs would prefer to have them winter here.
Some four boats belong here and others
would undoubtedly winter here if we had
convcnicnces for them to repair during the
winter. We have consulted with parties
well posted in such matters and in their
Judgment. Ways sufficient to accommodate
five boats can be built for twenty-five hun
dred dollars. This would be not only a
grc;ltaccOmmodation to boatmen, but would
be public benefit to Bismarck by encour-
aging industry here during our dull season.
Our interests are intimately connected with
river men, their success means prosperity
to Bismarck. River men, as a class, are
cnterprising and public spirited, and would
appreciate IN effort on our part for their
accommodation, and we would suggest Il
movement by our merchants and those
whose business would be increased by the
boat trade 70 raise means to make the nee
essary Improvement at some eligible point
near the landing for the safe winter quar-
tcrs for at least five or six boats, and with
sufficient room to dry dock them. This
project, lfattcmptcd, should be commenced
