Fierce Battle,

AUGUSTA, Me-, July 13.-Particu-
lars have just reached here Of a fierce
battle, in which about seventy five
men were engaged, and which took
place on the afternoon and eyenir g
of the Fourth, some miles above the
forks of the Kennebec river. A cav
alcade Of teams belonging to large
party Of Frenchmen was moveing
northward along the river road.
The wagons we're loaded with pro-
duce, liquor, tobacco, etc., and the
men, fifty or sixty in number, were
on an expedition which had both trade
and temporary employment in harves-
ting the hey crop as its object. At
about 2 o'clock in the afternoon the
train was suddenly attacked by a
gang Of river-divers, who were cele-
bratIng the holiday. The assailant
made sudden rush with clubs for
weapons, drove off the Frenchmen,
upset the wagons and seized such of
the contents as they considered of
value. The Frenchmen were not we'll
armed but they soon rallied and made
a savage charge. One of them had a
revolver and he handled it is so we'll
that three Of its five shots took effect,
MORALLY wounding one man and Grip
ping another. The river men then
produced one or two firearms. A
shotgun in their hands did some exc
cution, but the wounds it inflicted
were slight. The next man to fall
was Robert Bean, a lumberman,
whose head was split open by an axe,
welded by an influriate Frenchman.
He will probably die. Another river,
driver pursued at the point of a pistol,
leaped down a bank twenty feet high
toward the river, receiving frightful
injuries.
The fight continued with varying
advantage and occasional lulls until
10 o'clock at night The overturned
wagons were used as barbados and
the fort was several times captured
and recaptured. The river men
fought most desperately, but the
Frenchmen were not so courageous
AS the force Of the enemy was reduc'
ed, however, their courage increased
Before the last attack was made ten o
the lumbermen were stretched on th,
: field with wounds either fatal or com
pletely disabled. The remainin!
/ three fought as desperate as at tt
2 outset only one remained on his feet
! He and his wounded comrades wer
=. made prisoners, and now are in custc
dy at the forks. Besides these who's
injurien are described above, anothe
r still lies insensible and in a critics
e condition from the effects of a bio
on the head with a club.

Lost on the Lake.


MINNEAPOLIS, MINI, July 13.-I
The first evidence of disaster from the
storm yesterday at Lake Minnetoka
has been found, being pieces of trim
ming from, the yacht Minnie Cook
which foated on the waves at the east
shore of Wavwaita BAY, Large
sturdy boats went in search Of the i'll
fated little craft, tut no lurthe,. trace
of her could be had, 1t was at last
determined that she had sunk. and
that the ten passengers, eX Mayor
Rand and party, who embarked on
their perilous journey in such happy
spirit, had perished. Later, Il boatman
named James Carroll. who had
miracoulously succeeded N weatheriEg
the tornado IN yawI, appeared ON
the Waywatta bay beach dragging
his miniature craft after him. When
he had recovered sufficiently from his
fright and exhaustion to speak cohef-
emily, he told of having passed the
Minnie Cook just before the squali
struck the bay. He thought the
party had observed the danger, and
was quite certain that Engineer Nc
Donald had turned the yacht from
her course into the bay The next
moment his boat was raised out of the
water by some superhuman agency,
and then he was enyeloped in spray.
Soon afterward he heard a shrek
like that of woman in acute distress,
and looking off through the almost
binding mist to the spot where the
yacht was moment before floating,
nothing was to be seen but the white
caps and the waves rolling mountain
high. He is sure the shrek he heard
was that of Mrs. Rand, and that The
| Minnie Cook at that instant capsized
Fortunately he fell into the bottom o
his yawl and there chung until Il
squa had passed.
The bodies of Mrs. Rand and Engi
neer Mcdonald were received ane
brought to Minneapolis by a specia
train. Although the storm was q
brief duration, it is impossible to tel
whether the actual extent Of the los
of life and property has been fully
ascertaiued.

One Of the first fruits Of The Demo
cratic Administration of the United
States General Land Office is a just
decision from Commissioner Sparks,
restoring to the public domain mil
lions Of acres of pnblic lands hitherto
illegally held by the great transconti-
mental railroad companies. The de-
cision was founded on the case Of the
Northern Pacific Railroad Company,
which now has the privilege of selec-
ting from certain ellen lands" or Gin
demnity lands long ago designated
by a former Commissioner, a certain
number Of acres in lieu" OF other por-
tons of the grant forfeited on account
Of change in the line of the road.
THE Republican Commissioners have
held that the railroad had Alright to
keep settlers out Of these lands until it
had made the selection. Commission
er Sparks has decided that the railroad
cannot play this dog-in-the-manger
game with the public. 1t must either
choose Its land now or run the risk
Of having a second choice after thC

MIR. Cleveland has ordered his sub

removing the republicans from Office,
and has announced that his declara-

be carried out in good faith and must
be complied with. We admire con~
sistency and believe IN public a.iiu-
ais doing what they have PROMISED &,
do. What Mr.. Cleveland is most to

Senator NJ. T. Bryan, Of Nashville,

senator to set the democracy Of he

question before they nave had time to

senator for the consideration shown

Senator Emery asked the Republic
can State Convention yesterday to
embody in its platform a declaration
that the party wanted "a prompt and
complete enforcement of the constitu-
tIonal provisions prohibiting railroad
determinations" The matter was re-
felred to the Committee on Resolutions,
and to that body Mr.. Emery appeal
ed with an eloquence and an earnest
ness that should have carried convic-
ton. Mr.. Emery asserted his belief
that the subject he presented would
be the issue in the next campaign,
and in every campaign of the State
until rights had been secured for ship
pers. He said the Democrats would
surely avail themselves of it, and he
wanted the Republicans Of PennsYl-

Dr. Leonard, the Ohio prohibition

Judge Foraker. the republican candi-
date to discuss the issues of the cam

Foraker will attempt to steer clear OF
the Rev. Doctor as the the prohibition
question was the main cause of his de-
feat in the last rrce made by him foI
governor. He attempted to straddle
the question then, bat will be forced tC

We desire to call attention of the
people Of Bolivar to the importance Of
at once making preparations for the
opeaing Of good schools here for the
fal term. For want Of public money
we will not be able to have a free
school. We haYe had the benefit OF
session this year from the public
school fund and the patrons can Ger
tainly afford TO maintain a good sub
scription school for the next session.
We will then have another free school.
BY this means we can have 10 months
school each year; one half subscrip-
ton and one half Tree.

There is a good deal being said by
the press of the staUe about the cold

fess to believe that that element will
be kicked out Of the democratic party.
No doubt the "wish is father to the

to arouse the anti-bellum prejudices
of members of the old wing party. But
1t will surely fail. The truest demo

Vice-presidont Hendricks glorIes in
the fact that he is considered an of

The war cloud in the East is again
threatening and the indications are
that Russia and England will yet
have an opportunity of butting out
each others brains. The country was
beginning to feel easy over that mat

and damage to commerce, which
would be necessarily caused BY a war
between those gigantic powels, would
be averted. Yesterday S dispal ches
announces the startling fact that the
Russian troops under the command OF
Gen. Alikhanof, are advancing upon
the Afghan frontier and that the
Afghans are preparing to resolutely
resist any attempt to seize their ter

vance is determined to force a war
With such a patriot as Gladstone al

MAJORITY RULE.

The Republicans. and their al
lies, the so-called Independents, seem
very much concerned just now about
the future OF the Tennessee Democra-
cy, and consume a great deal Of their
time in discussing the extent and
probable consequences Of the division
in that party, while the Democrats
are pursuing the even tenor Of their
way; contending Tor what they be-
lieve TO be the true principles. That
all the men in Tennessee who haYe
heretofore voted the Democratic
ticket are not in perfect accord as to
certain policies which the party in
Tennessee had adopted cannot be
denied, The interests in this state
are so varied, and men are so prone
TO favor that policy which they be-
lieve will best promote their individ-
ual interests; regardless Of the inter
ests OF the great body Of the people Of
the state, that it IS but natural to find
! Democrats, or men who have atfiliat-
ed with the Democratic party, en-
deayorlug to shape the policy of the
party, so MS to futher their own lnterS
ests. Col. @ nIyar IS a protective
tariff Democrat, because he is inter
ested 10 certain industries which de-
rye large benefits from protection,
and the fact that some other interest
is made to suffer for his benefit makes
no difference with him. That is
quite natural Mr.. Doak, of the
Avalanche, is against q railroad COM
mission because 1t is to his interest to
: be so. So are certain railroad CEN
tres in Tennessee which are getting
their freights carried at perhaps a
less rate than they are entitled to;
but at the expense Of other places
which do not get the benefits Of com
petition. No one will make any
quarrel with these gentlemen if they

the party in a legitimate way and by

They, as Democrats, have the same
right to contend for the policy tina

OUR INFREENsEN.

The experience of Jacksonville
now comes to supplement that of
Palatka, and the Importance Of cur
organization of iremen j. just now
brought to our attention most fore
IDLY. 1t may be seen how even the
most perfect equipment is Of little
avail without practical knowledge,
the habits born only of sdiscipIine
and combined effort. Our fremen
are now well equipped, but they
sadly need closer organization and
more regular drill. Without these
all our past expense is useless and
our bitter experience will avail us
nothing. The members Of the diff
ferent fire companies should be reg
ularly drilled until they are familiar
with the apparatus, we'll acquainted
with the different duties which NAV
devolve upon each, and have learn
ed the necessity Of obedience wher-
ever combined effort is required.
The city also should take advan-
tage of the late law and provide for
the necessities Of the town in A case
of fire even if they are compelled to
levy a special tax for this purpose.
There are several wells in town from
which pipes might carry water in
any direction at little expense to the
city, and heavy streams be furnish
ed any point in case of possible peril
The Putnam House Company will
sink six-inch well on the grounds
of the new hotel, and from this,
with little help from the city, a
pipe might be placed around the
