"A special to the Pioneer Press,
Aug. list, says: The situation in Alex
andria verges on the terrible. Large
bodies Of well armed Bedouins have
come in from the country and desert,
and are forming with the apparent
purpose Of surrounding the city.
Their movements are well managed,
and indicate good military concert
and management. \ panicky feeling
exists in the city. The people believe
that all the natives within the city are
secret adherents Of Arab, awaiting an
opportunity for an uprising, and if the
Aboukir forts are bombarded and
Arabs garrison make resistance suf-
ficient to compel the British to deplete
the force within the city to strengthen
the attack, there will be renewal of
the scenes of the 18th uIt., and that
the Bedouins will pour down upon the
city.

The Suez Canal.

The London Telegraph in a recent
article written on the Egyptian cam
paign, attaches a great deal of import
ance to the fresh water canal which
connects Cairo with Suez, at the Red
Sea end of the ship canal. And
though Arab Pasha has declared his
intention to respect the neutrality Of
the canal, immediate steps for its pro-
lection cannot be too early taken.
The fresh water canal enters the salt
water canal from the Nile, and accom-
panies its course from IsmaiIia to
Suez. The lowest point of land lies
near the former of those places, so
that if the fresh water canal was de-
stroyed at Cairo, the water would sink
back t. Lake Timsah, forming an
overflow there, and the ship passage
might become dry. The fall from the
Nile Is twenty feet greater than to the
Mediterranean, and thirty feet greater
than to the Red Sea; hence the abso-
Lutte necessity of this fresh water ca
nal, which actHates a flow both ways.
From this it viii be perceived that the
ship passage cannot be protected by
merely echeIoning troops upon it, or
By patroIImg it with gunboats, Ieay-
Ing out Of consideration the fact that
its ninoty-nine miles Of length would
demand a very large force for the full
guardianship Of the waterway. Cairo
is thus the key to the safety Of the
ship canal, rs well as the political
center of the land, and Egypt cannot
be separated in a military sense, as
some imagine, from the Suez canal.
France, it IS supposed, will confne
herself to the protection Of the Suez
canal, for which purpose she sent 6 900
marines.

Over the Veto.

President Arthur, as it was expect
ed he would do, vetoed the river and
harbor appropriation bill and returned
it to the House last Tuesday. As
soon as possible Wednesday morning,
Chairman Page Of the commerce COM
mittee stated that he had been in
structed by the unanimous voice of
his committee to endeavor to secure
the passage of the bill over the presi-
dents veto, and asked for immediate
action. After but little delay the roll
call was commenced and when the re-
suit was announced it was found that
the bill had passed over the veto by
yeas 1913, to nays 80. The Senate fol-
lowed suit, Al to Is, and but few
moments elapsed before that veto was
buried out of sight.
There was no call for this exercise
of executive privilege, and the presi-
dent ought to have seen and perhaps
did foresee the outcome of his venture
No doubt the bill provides for some
few useless and Unnecessary expendi-
lures, but these items are in the aggre-
gate few in number, and the meritori-
Gus projects provided for should not be
made to suffer on their account. That
would be like throwing away the en-
tire wheat crop because a little chaf
and a few cookie seeds would slip
through the tanning mill. If the
president is for honest economy there
are plenty Of places for him to work
in besides this. Let him lend his in
fuence to the conviction of the star
route thieves and the recovery Of a
portion Of their stolen goods, and then
We may begin to believe that he IS in
fact desirous Of saving the national
treasure.

From Cabin to Capital.

The nomination of Judge J. II.
Berry for governor, by the Arkansas
State Democratic convention, has
caused us to look up his past history.
Our country cannot furnish a parallel
case and perhaps there is not living
man that has risen as rapidly as this
illustrious son Of Arkansas. Like the
majority of the young men of the
south, when the war came up James
A. Berry shouldered his musket and
went to the front with the gallant Six
teenth Arkansas infantry. He was
elected second lieutenant of his COM
pany. At the battle of Corinth he
was wounded and his leg had to be
amputated just below the hip. In
1864, at the age Of "A years, with one
leg, on crutches, without money, edu-
cation or financial friends, and no
means of support, he found himself at
Ozark. While here, he by some
means, met Miss Quales and a mutual
attachment grew up between them,
they were engaged to be married, but
50 gloomy was young Berry's future
prospect that her parents forbade her
seeing him. To show how hitter was
her fathers opposition we will state
that he has never sDoken to Jndoo
Berry since his marriaoo opd onIv
spoke to Mrs Berry about two weeks
AGO.
AS Glove laughs at Iocksmitbs . 50 =
one-Iegged man is not to be outdone
in such matters when "Barkis is viii
lin" Young Berry got his lady love
from a two story window and thew
were married. They went to Carroll
county and secured a loo cabin and
furnished that very scaDtv. Yonno

W. T. Price Nominated.

Science has not yet divulged to us
who it was that struck "Billy Pater-
son." but It is very plain that the
Eau Claire Convention is the fellow
that struck Billy Price, last Wednes-
day, and knocked him into the Con-
gressional corner on the first round.
We are not at all surprised at the
result Of the convention. Mr.. Humph-
rey's grave was dug by his enemies
last winter when the state was re-dis-
tricted, and Of course those fellows
who digged the grave in the cold win
ter months meant to enjoy The burial
services when the summer months
should come-and they have.
The convention, says a Pioneer
Press correspondent, was called to
order at noon by James O'Neill, Of
Clark county in the absence of chair
man Of the committee. Hon. D. r.
Bailey Of St. Croiz was chosen chair
man, and David Krebs OF TrempeaI-
eau temporary secretary. A com
mittee on credentials was appointed
and the convention set aside business
till afternoon. At $50 the conven-
ton was called to order, and the re
port Of the committee on credentials
was presented and accepted. Hon.
Ira Bradford Of Eau Claire county
presented after a short address, the
name Of ". Z. Price of jackson cour-
t. rs candidate for congress. Hon.
Geo. G. Hough Of St. Croix presented
the name Of II. I. Humphrey. c. L.
Davis Of Pierce presented the name
Of Hans ,. Warner, and S. D. Hub
bard Of Buffalo presented the name Of
Hon. Aug. Finklinberg Of Buffalo
county.
BALLOTING.
A motion 70 proceed TO an informal ballot was
carried, with the following result;
Price ...--..-.-.. 10 Finklenberg ........ =. 5
humphrey ...-..--..l2 Necessary to a choice. 81
warner --.-.........l3
Prices majority brought down the
house with voeiferious applause, and
after quiet reigned, Judge Humphrey
made a few remarks and withdrew his
name as candidate. The friends of the
other candidates withdrew their names
and the convention proceeded to take
a formal ballot, with the following re-
suit:
v. T Prico..-55 lib. Warner. 3 Blank. 10
The Hon. w I. Price was then de-
elared to be the nominee of the con-
vention. Mr.. Price was notified of
the honor bestowed upon him by a
committee appointed by the chairman,
and his appearance in the hall was
greeted with rounds of applause. He
made very pertinent and appropri-
ate speech, pledging himself to work
for the best interests Of the people.
Aresolution offered by delegate from
Trempeleau county depreciating the
reckless expenditure Of public money 5
by congress and endorsing President
Arthur's recent veto of the river and
harbor bill, was laid on the table.

Timber fires are again reported
from Michigan. Dispatches Of recent
date from East Taiyas says that the
forest fires TO the northwest and south
are burning fercely, and adds: Fields,
grain, farm houses, fences and orch
ards, together with large tracts of
cedar and pine, are burning. The
hemlock roads east of here are impass-
able, and no correct list of losses can
be given, as the accounts conflict.
Browns camps burned yesterday, with
a lot of sleighs and numbering equip
ages. Reports are received that hors-
es, cattle and other stock are running
and farmers DESERVING their homes.

1t is the candid opinion of the
New York Times that fully half of the

wasted in futile discussions. Deduct

session has been devoted to public bus

-Another attcmnt to retirn Or.

Another attempt to retire Grant
was quashed a few days ago by the
precipitate adjournment Of the Senate.
1t seems as though the people had
been afflicted with Grant about long
enough and that there ought to be
some way for getting rid Of him for all
time.

The bill Of Gov. Pound, Of Wiscon-
sin, to provide additional industrial
training schools for Indian youths has
passed both branches Of Congress, and
only requires the signature Of the
president to make it a law. The bill
provides that military barracks I'M
used and not needed for military pur-
poses may, if the secretary of war so
desires, be set apart for the establish
ment of industrial training schools for
Indian youths, thereby saving the ex-
Pense Of erecting buildings Tor the
purpose. If the secretary of war
chooses he may detail an army officer
to take charge Of the schools" The
provisions Of this bill are made to APP
ply specifically to such tribes as have
educational treaty claims upon the
United States, and cannot but exercise
salient influence in removing the
tribal relations and influences that
have so long retarded the progress of
civilization among the various tribes
of savages.
