The BODY of Minnie Wolf Found.

The mystery surrounding the disappear
ance of Minnie-Wolf, who left her home in
fit of insanity on the evening of the 18th
inst, has been solved. Her body was
found in a slough along the lake about one
mile above the Hudson bridge, by some
laborers who are camping in the vicinity.
The discovery was made shortly before 6
o'clock on Tuesday evening. A crowd
soon collected. and the body of the drowned
girl was conveyed to the home of the
heart-stricken parents, just below
Saltwater. When found she lay on her
face with her clothing wrapped around her
head and shoulders, and held by her right
hand. DR.. b. j. Merrill, the coroner, was
notified and drove down, but did not hold
an inquest, as the girl had come to her
death by drowning, and there were no signs Of
foul play. The doctor informed the GLOBE
representative that from every indication
the body had been in the water ever since
the night she left home. The statements
published to the effect that she was seen at
the Hudson bridge at Lakeland and Lake
Elmo last week are untrue. The funeral
will take place to-day.

The Coming street Railway.

Late Tuesday evening articles of lncorpora-
ton were filed in the regular deeds Office for
Il street railway to run from the boom house
OF the St. CrOiX Boom Co. to South Saltwater,
with L. ;. Brown, Samuel Matthews, David
ToZeI, 5. l.. COwan. q. \. TorinuS, Jacob
Bean and Z. L. HoSpes The capital stock is
Sl00,OO0 divided into 1000 shares OF $50 each,
to be paid as the directors may determine, and
the principle Office is to be in the city of Still
water. The question now is which company
will get there, this one or the Kilty-0' Neal.
Stillwater's prospects for street railway are
now better than ever.
THEY MEAN BUSINESS.
According to the statement in the Gazette
tonight enc would naturally think that the
street railway company Just Incorporated is
the only one that can and will build a street
railway in Saltwater. We desire to say that
we meant business when we appeared before
the city council and asked a franchise to es-
iablish and operate a street railway in this
city. We still mean business, and want Il
understood that we can and propose to estab-
iish one, well equipped, between StillN alter
and South Saltwater il money will do it.
Respectfully,

TRANSPORTATION TOPICS.
The Northwestern troubles.

The meeting in Chicago of the managers
of the roads interested in Northwestern
traffic has been postponed till tomorrow.
1t is understood that not only the old North
western Traffic association roads will be
represented at the meeting, but also the
Wisconsin Central, Illinois Central, Mime
sofa Il Northwestern, the st. Paul 81 Du-
luth and all other lines interested in North
western traffic. a strong effort will be
made to form new association, to take in
all the roads, even those now being con-
structed. 1t has been proposed to form
two pools, one to take in all lines between
st. Paul and Lake Michigan points, and
the other TO include lines engaged in traffic
between st. Paul and Lake Superior points.
1t is suggested, however, that the putting
on of fast trains by the Chicago & North
western and Milwaukee IL st. Paul will
prevent carrying out this idea. 1t is feared
the Rock Island would not go into it, unless
it could be assured fair share of the pas
senger business, regardless of fast trains.

ST. PauI water works Extension.

The st. Paul Water Works company is
endeavorng to run Rice creek, ten miles
north of Saltwater, into Lake Phalen to in
crease the supply. Surveyors are now at
work along the creek, near Centreyille sta
ton. If the course is changed the creek
will have to run through several valuable
farms, among which is that of Mr.. Coles
of this csy, who went up last evening TO
meet the surveyors and some of the Off
cials. The changing will be very expen-
slve job, but this creek alone would supply
a city of 800, 600 inhabitants. This, to-
gether with Lake Phalen and Lake Vad-
rais, on which st. Paul depends for her
water, would give the city an immense
supply. Rice creek is tributary to the
Mississippi river, is about thirty feet wide
and is very deep. The water is clear as
crystal, and is said to be the finest i'll the
state.

Controller of the Currency.

The following article in which our
distinguished townsman, Hon. G. r.
.Buckalew is mentioned, is taken from
special Washington despatch to the
st. Paul (Minn.) Press of Feb. 9th:
The presidents ignorance of the
views of Mr.. Gurney, controller of the
city of Chicago, on the silver question
has alone stood between the latter and
an appointment as controller of the
currency. The president will put none
but anti-silver men on guard, and if
Mr.. Gurney is in favor of the suspen-
sion of silver, and will show good
cause for his opinions he will undoubt-
edly receive appointment. An inquiry
is now being made by the presidents 8
direction into Mr.. Gurney's record and
views, and if the results are satisfactory
his nomination may be expected at any
time. There are some strong candi-
dates for the place. Among them
are:
William II. English of Ohio, who
assisted Gen. Hancock during the
presidential campaign; ex-Congress-
man Buckner of Missouri. ex-senator
Buckalew of Pennsylvania, Z. o.
Graves, the chief of the bureau OF
engraving and printing of the treasury
department; c. A. Fulsom of Illinois
w. E. Bracket, a prominent banker
OF Tennessee, and j. w. Morgan of
Indiana, relative of the late Vice
President Hendricks.
Ex-senator Buckalew of Pennsyl
vania has very strong endorsements
is all right on the silver question anc
is very favorably thought of, but t.
avoid the criticism that is so frequent
about relations between the currency
bureau and the New York custom
house the president has decided tina,
the new controller must be a Western
man. The Indiana men want Englisl
appointed, but he is considered too ol,
and unpopular. The president know
very well that English would not adj
any strength to the administration, bu
would be heavy load to carry. III
wants man that will be confirmed a
once, as the office is now in charge o
a green young person named Snyder
who was appointed deputy controlle

For the COLUMBIAN.
WASHINGTON'S BIRTHDAY.
BY JOHN SUTTON.

Amonng the earliest "reminiscences of
my life, is that of my widowed mother
in the twilight of the evening, laying
aside her work, and gathering her
little children around her knee, singing
to them patriotic songs and relating
to them the legends of the brave and
of the free. She told us of Tell, and
OF Wallace, and of Bruce and of our
own Revolutionary heroes, but, bid
us remember, that greater, and better
than either, was George Washington.
Subsequently becoming better acqnaint-
ed with his history, the veneration l
conceived for him in my childhood
strengthened with my years, and now
at the age of three score and ten, there
is no name on earth, Jesus and my
mother excepted, that I revere more
than the name of Washington.
Some men die and are almost i'm
mediately forgotten, or if remembered
at all it is by those who were nearly
related or intimately acquainted, and
he is, indeed, poor creature that has
no one to love him, while he lives, and
shed tear over him when he dies,
others die and are remembered by the
generation that was contemporary with
them. But some men never die. Tis
true, that the light of the eye goes ont
the bloom of the cheek fades, the
music of the voice is hushed, the
strength of the limbs fail, and the body
is laid in the grave out of sight, but
in their words, in their acts, and in
their characters, they still live and will
continue to live, while there is a gene
ration on earth capable of appreciating
the good and the true.
1t is right and proper that we should
venerate the names of such men, not
that we should make idols of them,
and give them the worship due to our
creator, but that we should revere the
principles of truth and goodness, that
dwelt in them and make them worthy
of our recollection. Among the great
names that grace the pages of history
there is no one more dear to the
American heart than the name of
Washington. We give him the ven
Grafton due to the father of his country
we look upon as fixed star, in our
political heavens, to which we point
with pride in our prosperity ana in
whose light we find guide in oul
adversely. He is our national ideal Of
all that is good and true in the citizen
the general and the statesman. He il
the standard by which we measure the
professions of others and estimate them
in proportion as they come up to that
standard.
1t cannot be but that the annual
celebration of the birthday of such q
man when his whole char acter comes
into review and the principles that de-
velope1 themselves in that character
are brought up before the mind, must
have some influence for good upon the
nation, just as the contemplation of a
beautiful picture excites in us the love
of the beautiful, and has a tendency to
mould us into the same image.

FOUND IN THE RIVER.
THE BODY OF JOHN ID. HAIR
RINGTON OF AUBURN,
RECOVERED AT
MIFFLIN.
MURDERED AT nINGu,MroN rrc. 9ru

Last Monday morning as Jacob
Bittenbender and A. NJ Hess were
catching wood in the river about a
mile above Miflnville, they observed
an o. iect approaching that did not
seem to be log. There was clothing
on it, and they caught it and drewit
out on shore, when they found il was
the body of man. He was apparent
ly man of about As years, heavy
build, we'll dressed in a suit of black,
with overcoat, but no hat. On the
watch pocket of the pants was the
name of clothing finn of Auburn N.
Y. The body had evidently been in
the water several weeks, aud had some
marks on it which might have been
made by the ice. The finders quickly
sent word into the village of what they
had discovered, and Samuel Snyder,
ESQ, empannelled coroner's jury,
consisting of r.. w. Smith, J. +. Peif
fer, w. f. Mowrey, Alfred Hess, Geo.
f. Greasy, and G. w. Hess. The ver-
dict of the jury was that deceased
came to his death by causes unknown
to them. The body was taken in
charge by the overseers of the poor,
and conveyed 10 a little building in
the cemetery after being placed 10 a
coffin. On the shirt of deceased was
the name John Harrington, and in
several other parts of his clothing were
the initials j. ID. III. No papers were
found TO identify him.
There was a watch chain, but no
watch, nor pocket book kilograms
were sent up the river making inqui-
ries, and on Tuesday noon brother
of the deceased arrived at Miffiinville
and identified the body as that of John
d. Harrington of Auburn, N. Y. He
was we'll to do man, engaged in large
contracts, and on the night of Dec. 9,
1885, was in Binghamton. He visited
saloon and was never seen alive after
he came out of the place. 1t was sup.
posed that he had large amount of
money with him, but it happened that
he had but $40 in his pocket. 1t is
believed that he was. murdered and
thrown off the bridge into the river
that night.
| There are some clues as to the muir
derers, but as nothing could be done
until the body was found, no arrests
were made.
Mr.. Harrington took the remains
home on Wednesday evening.

Election Reform.

EDITORS CoLUMRIAN:-I am writing
this while the February election is pro-
crossing. and therefore am uninfluenced
by results. Ny object is to submit to
the consideration of our party the ne
cessity for reform in the selection of
candidates to be elected for the govern
ment and public duties of the town of
Bloomsburg. 1t has long been mani
fest that neither our system of voting
nor our caucus or public meeting Sc
lection of candidates is entirely unob-
jectionable. Indeed they are failures
singly and collectively. In my mind
the results now obtained are failures
for lack of party responsibility; and
whether in town, township, county or
state politics the failure is most un-
doubted. One party or the other must
conduct the government, and be respon-
sible for the failure and credited with
the success,fo for in case of combination
between them it is mere corruption and
negligence, division and silence. Let
us be done with it, now and forever.
My idea is that the Democratic party
of the town of Bloomsburg should on
the Saturday week before the spring
election, elect one delegate for every
thirty voters and fraction of twenty
thereof, by districts, each person voting
for the whole number to be elected
and that those delegates should meet
on the Tuesday before the election, and
select and put in nomination the full
ticket of officers to be elected. As TO
instruction to delegates, and methods
of nomination, these are mere matters
of detail aud can be previously arrang-
ed by few simple rules to be submit.
ed, considered and adopted.
In this way, the Democratic party
by making good nominations and
electing competent men would be able
to manage the affairs of the town; and
if they did not elect good, competen,
and responsible men, they would be
displaced AS they ought to be. Where
both parties are responsible, neither
party is responsible No matter what
the charge may be, the answer is
"You're another And the people
and the public interests suffer while
the different party office holders are
dividing the spoil or fixing things fol
the next round.
What say you, Democrats
