The Memorial Passed by the Legislature
Asking for $50 1000.

Inc Memorial Passed Dy the Legislature
Asking for $4,000.
At the last meeting of the chamber of COM
MERGE City Attorney Murray called attention
to the fact that the Minnesota delegation had
never paid any attention to the request made
by legislative memorial for government aid
for West st. Paul levee. The following is
the memorial, and the statements therein made
had sad verifcation last spring by the de-
struction of nearly 5000, 900 worth of property
by flood:
A memorial to congress for an appropria-
ton of fifty Thousand dollars (S5O, 0O0) to aid
in the construction of levee, and the improve
ment of the Mississippi river opposite Saint
Paul, in the State of Minnesota.
To the Senate ard House of Representatives
of the United States, in Congress assembled:
Your memorialists, the legislature of the
your honorable body, that large portion of
the land which was formerly the head of the
Mississippi river opposite the city of Saint
Paul, in the State of Minnesota, is low and
subject to be OVERLOOKED at stages of high
water OF said river.
That said low land is fast settling up by
actual residents belonging to the industrial
class, who have built thereon dwelling houses,
stores, school houses, ETC., in fact all their
worldly possessions are there.
That in June of last year (1SS0) the Missis-
sippi river overlooked said land to a depth of
two az feet, surrounding and flooding the
dwelling houses and other buildings, causing
great distress and injury to persons and prop
erty, and from present indications there is
great probability of like calamity happening
this year, to prevent which, and to protect in
the future the lives, health and property Of
this meritorious class of citizens,your memor
fifty thousand dollars (s5O,OOO) for the con-
struction of levee on the west bank of the
Mississippi river opposite the city of SAINT
Paul, which will aid the improvement of the
navigation of said river, and prevent the future
overflow by high water of the homes Of these
now defenseless settlers.

Jumped to His Death.

ST.. LOUIS, Jan. 12.-John Creighan, foun-
dry man, went to see Mrs. Cox, friend of
his, off by the Wabash train last evening. ac-
companied by several neighbors. When Mrs.
Cox got on the train at the Main street depot,
Mr.. Creighan followed, carrying her packages.
Immediately the train started, and when it had
moved short distance Creighan rushed out
and attempted to jump off while the train was
crossing the bridge. The brakeman endeav-
ored to hold him, but he broke away and went
down through the bridge Orders into the
river. Creighan evidently thought there was
a foot-pass on the bridge. He is believed to
have been drowned. The body has not yet
been recovered. He leaves wife and two

Tho Northern Pacific r. r. and Congress.


New YORK, Jan. 12-The Northern Pacific
people here say in reference to the bills intro
duced in congress affecting the land grant of
this road, that the same tactics were resorted
to at the last session of congress and they ex-
pect to see them repeated for two years to
come The feeling uponithe part of officers
of the road is, congress can't possibly be
brought to wrong the 5000 stockholders,
who have put S4O,OO0,OOO into the enterprise
on their faith in the governments promises,
by taking from them the land irrevocably
bonded, but not yet technically earned,
through which they are now constructing the
road with the aid of 1000 men and doing all
in their power to finish it by Sept. 1, 1883.
Ex-Secretary Schurz says if he was in error in
his decision concerning the land grant that
the error was supported by the opinions of
the attorney general, who was consulted be-
fore decision was made by congress, which
during two sessions permitted the decision to
stand and to be acted upon by a majority of
the house committee on Pacifit railroads,
which reported concurrence in it by the de-
partment of justice, which. recently gave an
opinion affirming it and by President Arthur,
who ordered it to be further acted upon

CHICAGO, Jan. 12.-Several days ago all
the books belonging to the large wholesale
beer-bottling firm of George Hoffman &
Bros, disappeared in a mysterious manner.
Soon after the books were missed it leaked out
that William Basque, a collector for the firm,
was short in his accounts. He was placed

Systematically robbing the firm and altering
the books for over one year, and induced a
companion named Frank Hasting to make

rested, but no clue could be obtained to the
missing books, and the men were released in
hopes that one of them might go to the place
where the books were concealed.

FEW ERDENHEIM CRACKS.
Among the cracks who first saw daylight at
at Erdenheim are Parole, the aged gelding,
who has run eighty-four races, won over $780,
600, and defeated Ten Brock, "Big Tom"
Ochiltree, Isonomy, Monitor and many other
great horses; Iroquois, who won the New
market, Burwell, Derby, st. James Palace,
Prince of Wales, Doncaster, st. Leger and
Newmarket Derby stakes, and was second to
Peregrine for the two thousand guineas and
third to Bend Or for the Champion stakes;
Aristides, the famous "red horse'' that the
Kentuckians believe invinc,ble; Harold
"Handsom Harold" they call him in his three
petitors in the easiest way, but finally went
the way of most good ones and broke down;
but he is so well thought of for stud purposes
that his present owner refused 600 for him
the day after his brother, Iroquois, won the
Derby.

Then there was Sensation, the victor in the
eight races he started for as two-y ear-old and
was so speedy that his admires declared he
could give any horse in America one hundred
yards in two miles and then beat him; Onon-
daga, the best two-year- old of 1881, and Boun-

youngsters, are Erdenheim bred and born.

The Grand Jury.

The grand jury resumed the investigation
of cases in the old court house loft yesterday
Their deliberations were conducted with the
usual secrecy and business was disposed of
with unaccustomed dispatch and celebrity. A
GLOBE reporter on the lay for snaps, lounged
about the building for five minutes or such a
matter and concludrd that nothing had hap
pened really worth the giving away.
However, they wrestled with the cases as
published in Tuesdays issue of the GLOBE
and true bills were found with but one or two
exceptions. They finished their labors and
will probably report to day. After disposing
of regular business they resolved themselves
into committees and visited the jail and coun-
ty offices. AS to the latter it is to be hoped
that they will see the necessity of more spa
cious vaults to accommodate the district court
work, the abstract office and register of deeds,
as in each instance the vaults are very much
OvercrOwded.

nothing else in the conduct of the judge at
that time to indicate intoxication. The

Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1882-08-30

The signs of the times indicate that nearly
all the old elements Of opposition to Radi-
calism will be concentrated on Bate before
the day of election. In another column We
publish letter from J. l.. Harris, the lead
ing Greenbacker- of Shelby county, on the
political situation. Mr.. Harris is known as
the Pillow Boy" and is a man of fine practi-
cal sense. After careful survey of the con-
test in the State be announces his deter
mination to support General Bate for gov
ernor. Mr.. Harris's letter will no doubt
have much influence with the supporters OF
Beasley, as he is an original Greenbacker,
and is still a supporter of that organization.
But he has the good sense TO see that the
election nj Paoslay ia anirppossnhilitz- and
defeat Hawkins, whose policy on the State-debt
question he opposes, he will support Bate on a
platform more in accord with his own views
than the Republican. We do not pre-
tend to indorse the reasons by which Mr..
Harris arrives at his conclusions. But the
fact that he has determined TO give his
influence 10 Bate is most gratifying. Mr..
Harris is a man of the people; he thoroughly
understands their needs, desires and sympa-
thies, and here in Shelby county where he is
known as an honest man and good citizen,
his letter will exercise great influence over
the few Greenbackers who proposed to con-
tribute to the election of Hawkins by sup
porting Beasley. The Greenbackers, accord
ing 10 their own declarations, desire the de-
feat of Hawkins, and they know, as all intel
ligent persons know, that this can only be
brought about by voting for Bate. This Mr..
Harris has the ssgacity to see, and he has
the patriotism, independence and manhood
TO say as much TO his political friends.
II is to be hoped the Greenbaekers in every
part of the State will read Mr.. Harris's let
ter as mis- advice affects the interest of the rich
and poor-the prosperity of white and black,
Greenbackers and Democrats alike. The
contest is between Hawkins and Bate, and as
