Charleston, Columbia, Savannah
and Agusta Suffer Another Night
of Fear,-Eeach Visited by
Another Slight Shook.

CHARLESTON, Sept. Ali p. M.-This city
was shaken again tonight. 1t was at $50
o'clock. Though a person might suppose
our citizens would become accustomed to
this sort of thing, it is evident they have moi
yet learned to like it. The shock was moth
ing like rs severe ~ it was last night. 1t
more than met all requirements, however,
and startled the shaken-np people.
None but the whites appear as vet to
know how to TAXI these visitations. But the
blacks are nearly all affected alike by it.
They have only 10 suspect a renewed shak-
ing of things IN which they tread, when
they rush with a common impulse TO the
parks, and such shouts and plaintive pray
ers as they ascend are enough to break down
unbelief.
No damage is rs yet reported from the
shaken ci,y's poInlace tonight. But the
shock was by no means a merely local one.
kilograms are in already from Columbia,
this State, and Savannah and Augusta, Ga,
showing that they shook also-columbia at
927 with ID seconds continuous vibrations,
which cleared the buildings of occupants
Savannah at 800, with sufficient severity to
drive hundreds ont of doors for the night
and Augusta with scarcely ~pereeptible ire
mors.
In Charleston this evenings shock lasted
only five seconds. But it was enough. just
when and where these phenomena will give
r.l.fxa m ftaa Lrv NJ .xrs. 80. =.
this season along the coast, is a question of
the liyeliest interest TO all citizens who "
or occupy houses in the cities by the sea.

The Philadelphia Times says that the
Pennsylvania prohibition whistle has grown
to a battle bugle. Are the Prohibitionists
going =" ON a LotasriAe c5t~i>T-Joar-
aal.
If our Democratic friends in Pennsylvania
ooddle that Prohibition movement too much
il may react against them and succeed in
electing the Republican candidate for Gov
ernor in that State.-C2egelaad Plain Dealer
tDem.l
The organ of the Philadelphia hotel and
saloon keepers urges it, patrons to aid the
Wolfe Prohibition movement. No wonder
the Chairman of the Prohibition State Com
mittee has resigned He sees that whiskey
and not water is going to run the Wolfe
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES Herald.
Chairman Stevens, of the Prohi5ibition
Convention. said in his opening addrcss To
that body, IF there is any kickers here
let him go out now We don't wan them
% stay. We want no kickers.'' N then
the convention went AT and nominated
Charlie Wolfe. the prince of kickers.
A Philadelphia paper says that the
Pennsylvania Democracy has no views ON the
liquor question This argues well for the
oonviyial resources of the Pennsylvania
Democracy. Ii would have some very deci-
ded views on the liquor question if there
were any scarcity of iquor.-Chicago Times.
Mr.. Wolfe may probably attract a consid-
cradle vote from sources outside the Prohi-
bition ranks. while upon the other hand
thousands of sincere Republican Prohibi-
~tioIists may be expected To refuse To desert
their allegiance TO their party in support of
a selfish renegade.-PosstiHe Miners Journal
lRP.).
The Courier Journal questions whether
Wolf, the Democratic candidate for Cover
nor in Pennsylvania. has three sets of teeth
but il adds. Republicans may expect to
hear him howl" Probably the most dolo-
rous howl viii be just after the ballots are
counted and the hungry Wolf is LEFT out in
the cold.
Republicanisn and the submission Of a
prohibition amendment TO . popular vote
stand together, and they will fall together if
the Republican party is defeated. IL is either
a Republican Legislature and a chance To
vote ON a prohibition amendment, or il II a
Democratic Legislature aud the utter ignor-
ing Of the liquor question. Ac the political
Pr~ohibi'ionisfs prepared TO face the issue in
that undeniable form p W~snsam<pon Gcsst<

The Somerset herald. [volume] (Somerset, Pa.) 1870-1936, 1886-09-08

The Prohibition platform declares for
prohibition pure and undefied, and it
denounces and repudiates the submission
plank in the Republican platform ar de-
oeptive and a snare. As the submission
to popular vote Of a p~rohibitory amend
ment 10 the Constitution, is the only
method provided in hat instrument by
which prohibition can be arrived at, we
would like 10 know how these repudia-
tons Of the Constitutional method pro-
pose TO arrive at their professed object.
In no other way than that provided for
in the Constitution, and recommended in
the Republican platform can it be accom-
plished. Therefore, we are forced to the
conclusion that these political prohibit
tionists are inten; solely ON building up
a third party. They propose no practical
method, and oppose everything proposed
by Others.

Bursting of an Artesian Well at
BeliepIaln. Iowa.


cHrcaso. III. August sIs-A dispatch was
received from the Mayer Of Belleplain. Iowa,
which states that an artesian well four in
ehc> in diameter burst when the sicpsh Of 1so
feet had been reached in boring, and Instant
ly a volume of water was forced into the air
TO the distance Of several hundred feet. This
gradually increased in size and Volume until
a sircam of water fully sixteen inches in di-
anefer was formed, and the upward force of
the stream is equal to the power Of powder
or dynamite The water in huge volumes
is speutiny high in the air, and the supply
seems i~nexhaustible. Two gigantic rivers
have been formed by this phenomenal water
burst which arc running through the town
at the rate of twelve miles an hour and car
rying everything before them. Houses and
lives are threatened bv this peculiar freak Of
MIXTURE and the citizens are appalled, at their
impending danger. which at present they
are poweriess to overcome. Finding il i'm
possible TO divert this damaging flood an at
tempt was made to insert l6-ineh boiler iron
tubes int the well. but these were instantly
blown out and forced high into the air.
Finding this plan useless the terrified people
attempted To fll up the aperture through
which this terrible geyssr was sloutine its
deluge. Fifteen carloads of stone were emf
tied into the wei. hut these were forced mp
ward as though propelled by the force of Il
ant powder. Bags of sand were then hastily
constructed and cast into the well. hut these.
too, were hurled into the air. The Chicago
and Northwestern Railroad was called upon
for assistance. and instantly sent . large gang
county was also called upon. but up 10 this
evening no abatement in the flow of water
was pereptible, and the rushing rivers form
ell by il were washing the channel it had
made deeper and wider, willie the basin
formed bv this immense volume of water
was spreading over the Iowlands in the yicin-
ity. The Mayor of ~BeIleplain, in his last
extremity, telegraphed 20 Chicago Tor the
best engineers that could be secured to come
Immediately 10 the spo; and use their skill
and energy in attempting 10 stop this peril
oJs condition of affairs. City Engineer Ar
tingstalI at once started ont to find an engin-
eer whc would supply the demand. and sue
ceeded in inducing Engineer Morgan IL I'M
dertake the mission. Messrs Artingstall and
Morgan are, however, both of the opinion
that but little if anything can be hone to
stop the flow of water, but that it may be
possible to direct the rivers into less danger
Gus directions and confine them 10 their
channels. Mr.. Morgan lef for Belleplain
tonight. and if more assistance IS necessary
Mr.. Artingstall will send all that is needed.
This is regarded as one Of the most phenom-
email freaks Of nature which has yet been
known. and the threatened dangert to the peo-
pie and property of Bolleplain demand in
slant and energetic efforts 10 restrain the
ruinous delngc of water.
