has shown little or no Improvement, until
the progressive firm of Graham Il Nc
Nish erected, last season, a few two story
brick blocks. This seemed to start the
ball rolling and the heretofore dormant as.
p~irations of public spirited citizens have
become fully aroused, and to-day prepa,

tions completed for
THE CITY WATER WORKS,
to be put in operation on or before the
tenth of November next. This ia the
most practical scheme l have heard of fol
any town, as the entire expense does no
exceed that of supplying wells for thu
culinary and other purposes demanded b!
a young city,
The proposed plan is to make IA larg'
well on the bottom land near the depot
there erect a big windmill which pumps
the water into two large reservoirs of 150t
barrels each. These tanks are fitted witt
filters and are located upon the hill cas-
of town, thus giving 113 feet fall.
From these tanks the contractors ar,
to lay 5000 feet of mains through thu
principal streets, with hydrants located
at convenient places for use ~ins+ease Of

COLUMBUS, Nov. - p. m.--Another
riot is in progress in the Hooking val

were returned by the police, and be-
came regular fuslade on both sides.
The guards were driven in from the
hills above the hoppers, and had it not
been for the action of Pinkerton's men,
who came out just in time, the hoppers
would have been burned. Explosives
Were thrown from the hills, and burst
in the town, shaking the ground. The
strikers stood u terrible fire poured into
them by the guards, and returned it
with a vigor that surprised the PinLer-
tons. After an hours fight, squad OF
Pinkerton's men, under Sergeant Nc
Cady, tianked the attacking party and
drove them off. Rocks in several places
on the hills are found. spattered with
blood, showing that the strikers did
not escape unhurt. None of the guards

MIR. VANDERBlLT'S DESPATCH.
The People Believe Mr.. Cleveland to
be an Honest Man,

ALBANY, N. Y, Nov. S, 1SS4.-Tht
following letter was received by Cover
nor Cleveland this morning:
"HoN. GROVER CLEvELAND:
"MY DEAR SIR congratulate you
and the people of the whole country up.
on your election to the Presidency OF
the United States. You owe your elec.
ton, in my judgment, to the fact that
the people believed you to be an honest
man, and not to any particular effort
made by any faction of either the
Democratic or Republican parties. In
dependent men, who care more for
good government than for parties or
individuals, have made you their choice
because they were convinced that your
administration would not be for the
benefit Of any political organization or
favored persons, but for the interests of
the whole people. This is just the re-
suit which is most desired. We have
reached time when party amounts to
little. The country is above all, and it
wants an honest government by honest
men. The belief that we will find it in
you has led to your election.
"Yours very truly,
"W. Fl. VANDERBILT.

Devices ofBeatcn Scoundrels.
From the Albany t-gus. !

e'''i
The address, of the RepubJican Ma
tional Committee is a further stem in
the Blaine efforts to law foundation
for the stealing of New York State.
Step first was taken in the Jav Could
Blaine Tibnne and in the Jaw Gould
Western Union despatches Tuesday
night. Those dispatches began fairly
enough, giving figures lust as thev
! came. They showed steady demo-
cratic gains in the rural districts. Then
such words rs these commenced to crop
out: Ifthe remaining districts conform
to the Garfield vote Blaine's plurality
will be So in the State" At that time
the districts were per~i-tentlv not "con
forming to the Garfield vote.n The
purpose of the irrelevant and imperti-
nent Interpolation intouews dispatches
was plain. 1t was to let "the mana
gers" know that "the remaining dis
tricts" must lie made conform to the
Garfield vote To do or attempt that
delay was necessary. Suddenly returns
ceased coming until the next dav.
Twelve hundred odd districts had been
heard from. Seven hundred odd more
remained to be heard from. Why were
the sources Of information thus sudden
cut off? The order to conform to the
Garheld voten was understood, so the
returns were held back.
Across that scheme, the vigilance of
the Democratic State National commit
tees projected an orderto each county's
democratic leaders:-"Send on the re-
turns to us at once; see that no figures
are tampered with; see that q true
statement and an honest local count a,e
made" by that means the figures
were received before the plotted alter
ationsin them could be made. knowl-
edge of the election of Cleveland was
obtained.
But the next morning, when every
other paper, OF all shades of opinion, as
good as conceded the election OF Cleve-
land, the Jay Gould-Blaine Tribune
cast d0ubt-the prearranged doubt
on the election and dispatches appeared
that the Republican National Com
mittee claimed he election of Blaine"
and claimed this, that and the other
States, from some of which no human
being on earth had received word, at
the time, and from Others Of which it
was Impossible for any human being to
determine the result by what had been
received at the time.
Outward bluff screened the crimes
going on.
mat afternoon Blaine papers issued
extras declaring "Blaiae elected" but
giving no figures. Those extras were
issued from officers which had received,
but did not publish, cautionary tele-
grams from politicians of their own
party in New York, saying Blaine was
not elected, and warming the papers, for
the sake of justice and decency and in
the interests OF republican honor and
pubic order, not to fall in with the plot
TO count Blaine IN by fraud. Those ex-
tras We're issued when the papers them
selves possessed and suppressed the
hgures which refuted the very claim
put forth that Blaine was elected.
Ihat was the further step in the con-
spiracy.

A Lesson of Experience which May
BIZ Valuable.

De
A feature In the crushing of ore, which
is new to this section, at least, is the cleo
tro-magnet in the ore chute over the rolls.
As small pieces OF pick-points and chips
from the edges Of shovels might be run
through the rolls, ii wa thought best to
prevent any possibility of resultant damage
by placing q powerful magnet in the chute.
A six-horss power dynamo machine is con-
neoted with the magnet and gives it power
sufficient to draw to it and hold any iron
or steel which might otherwise get into the
rolls.
We take the above paragraph from the
San Francisco Exchange, in regard to the
Mount Cory works started up on the LIST
inst. Those works are modelled on the
plan Of the Geddes & Bertrand works. In
conversation yesterday with Mr.. Brown,
who has for more than a year
past superintendent the crushing de-
partment Of the works last mentioned,
he said he has used two strong magnets in
the ore chute and that they have not
proved OF much value. They only take
strong hold on small pieces Of iron and
these are almost always detached by the ore
falling on them and are knocked off and
sent down unto the crushers. The mag
nets, also, attract steel less strongly, and
large pieces OF picks, drills, etc., fall right
through the magnets which are in the
shape Of elongated horseshoes. Mr..
Brown says the most trouble in his depart
ment has been with the elevators. At
first, rubber bands were used, but these
would wear out In a week and broke SO
often while in use that much time was
lost by the stoppage. Iron bands were
substituted, but these soon crystallized,
and though as long as they encountered
no jar, they went smoothly and did good
work; il they struck a projecting nail or
any other hard substance the conclusion
would drive the crystals apart and burst
the band. Mr.. Brown thinks the most
troublesome part Of the machinery in the
Geddes, or any other mill constructed like
it, Is the bands Of the elevators. The
falling Of bits Of iron and steel onto the
crushers, he thinks, is of inferior import
ance.
