The Merrimack Corporation, Lowell,
Mass, makes 10 miles of calico day
Nearly 1000 operatives are employed,
and 1853, $50 spindles and 4, 412 looms
are used. About 425 bales of cotton
are consumed every week. Notwith-
standing the vast water-power of the
river it is entirely inadequate to run all
the machinery now used there, and
therefore several powerful engines are
used. The Merrimack alone uses 81
engines of 6, 600 horsepower. One of
these engines has 1900 horse power,
and is huge monster. 1t requires
$4,000 tons Of coal a year to run the
engine.

Which We suppose stands for no go,
or means no good. The Santa Fe
Railroad is extending its lines east and
west, and is withdrawing the construct
ion of the lateral branches. Of the
Wichita and Western Railroad to Dodge
City, the Kingman Citizen says:
Wednesday afternoon our business
men were notified that meeting would
be held at the Laclede parlors, for an
interview with the Santa Fe officials
On repairing to the room we found Vice
President Touazlin, Superintendent
Robinson, Traffic Manager Goddard and
Consulting Engineer Lake. Mr..
Touazlin was introduced and in a few
remarks notified the people that oper-
ations were suspended and all claims to
the right-of way donated by the city of
Kingman to the company were released
and that an amicablc and equitable ad-
justment Of the damages sustained was
desired. A history of railroad building
and builders was given as the reason
for suspension Mr.. Touazlin thanked
our people for the favors shown and
seemed to appreciate the kindness our
people had showed to the road, stating
that every pledge and condition on the
part of the city had been complied
with and the best of feeling existed to-
ward our people, and had the officials
of the road the authority, cars would
be running into Kingman to-day. The
meeting was of short duration and the
gentlemen left for Cheney at 4 o'clock.
There was nothing particularly cansol-
ing only that we know our railroad
prospects are not as good as they were
some time ago. Now what is best in
the premises, to rush into some new
deal without deliberation and judg-
ment, or carefully consider this matter
and plan what is best, we suggest the
same and await developments.

A Murder.

The citizens of Dodge were startled
Monday noon by the announcement
that the dead body of a colored woman
was found in small tenement house
in the vicinity of this Office. The muir
dered woman was Keziah Morse, or
Kasock, as she was Familiarity known.
Henery Chambers, colored man in the
employ of Mr.. Wright at the Fort, was
arrested, and charged with the deed.
The head and face of the woman was
terribly cut, supposed, to have been
done with stove lid which was found
bloody on the floor near the dead body.
The CHASTITY face was witnessed by a
number of citizens, and the terrible
deed sent thrill of horror over this
city. Chambers had paid his attentions
to his victim the evening previous and
at II o clock Sunday night had pur-
chased bottle of whiskey with which
to hold his revelry. of debauchery and
lust. What prompted him to perpetrate
the horrible deed is only matter Of
conjecture. When arrested he appear
ed conscious of his guilt, and informed
the Sheriff that he would have preferred
being shot. A Coroner inquest by
justice Cook brought out the facts
substantially as stated by us. A pre-
liminary examination was held Tuesday
evening, but the prisoner was held for
trial in the District Court. "Kasock, y
the deceased negress, was Of dissolute
habits, and frequently found her way
to the police courts, to answer to charges
of mis- conduct The old, old story is
repeated in the details Of this murder.
Whiskey and lust bring misery, ruin
and death. The wages Of sin is death.

Mr.. Morrison's tariff bill reducing
most duties 20 per cent, including sugar,
wooden and cotton goods, iron and lum-
Der, will bring the house squarely up to
action upon the tariff question. Randall
will bitterly antagonize all reductions,
and very lively word debate will soon
be inaugurated. 1t will be noticed that
the bill leaves the leading duties at
from 40 to 60 per cent ad valorem,
which would seem to be quite high
enough for protective purposes.

Bent county, on which work is to commence as
soon as spring opens. These several enterprises
will open to settlement not less than million
acres OF new land, most of which is now public
domain. 1t will of course add vastly to the tax
