FRIGHrFUL Acc1DENT.
Five Men and a Boy Hurled Into
Eternity.

CHICAGO, Aug. 16.-ATimes, Ashland,
Wis.,, special says: This morning this
city was ftartled by terrific explosion
which was soon discovered to have been
occasioned by the bursting of boiler
in the carpenter shop of Periner &
Webster. The boiler house was utter
ly demolished and five men and boy
Instantly killed and two wounded.
The terrible accident has cast gloom
over the entire city. The cause Of the
explosion was lack of water in the
boiler. Saturday the boiler was blown
off and pumped up after cleaning.
The usual fire was built this morning,
when it was found that the injector
would not work; while trying to fix il
the explosion occurred. The loss will
foot up about $1,000.

The hunting season having fairly
opened, no one in this section cares
whether Cutting is released, or Clifford
is renominated, or the corn crop is a
failure, or whether it is to be hard
winter, or who is to be county treas
urer. In fact, all the hitherto engross-
ing questions of the hour are swallow
ed up and lost sight of in the mad
rush for prairie chickens.

say that Mr.. Cleveland's civil service

that section. The fall elections will

Republicans Alarmed at the Administra'
 tion's Late Action.-A Plea 10 Forget the h War lssus"s and Rememper the Finan' @ cial Question.
 F A late bond call for S15, 100000 makes $50.OO0,0OO called since the adjournmeit of Congress; slO.0OO, 1000 of this, Optiopal with holders, but S4O,OOO,0OO are compulsory. What does this mean? It means that the President has abondoned his ownlpohcy and adopted that of the House of Representative, for the payment of the public debt. Republican organs that have been cOndemning the President for hOardiug money, like his predeoes- sOrs, are now alarmed because their old policy is reversed, but more especially because their pets, the haaks,1 are in trouble. Many, ot the banks, decline to sur render their bonds pickering to retain them without interest as a libasis. for their circulation, rather than pay the high premium neces, sary to purchase four and I a half per cents. These calls have brought to the front the finan- cial question as nothing else could. The next Congress will no doubt be besieged by the banks for leg lislation to save their crumbling in stitutioh. They want, must have or die cheap, interest.bearing bonds. They have wruug double interest from the public so long, they won't let go if they can help it.. This makes this present elec- ton. a matter of supremei impor' ttahce. Let Iowa do her duty for once, and send only men who sym, pathize with the people instead of these corporations. There are plen- ty of such candidates in the field. The only question is, will the vot, CTS elect them, or the agents of monopoly, who are backed by the Republican press of this State, and come toward with all the assur- ance of innOcense, saying to their dupes: '..Vote for us! Don't elect a Greenbacker or Knight; don't tor. get the war, and vote as you shot" |" etc. 1 asi qiii oI fs. a H hY

 WE'RE TERRIBLY EXCITED. t They imagined the movement was really against the peaceable In. dians who were to be punished for tdoing they knew not what: where as the real culprits were much less stirred up when appraised of what was intended. Things did look .squally the last of the next week, when the squaws an d the pappoOs. es took to the hills, but, Agent White by his cooiness and adroit- ness succeeded in finally allaying the excitement and keeping the Utes from going on the warpath.
 Presently the .squaws came back, as no hostile move was made by the military, the troops reached their new quarters and established themselves there, and the excite .ment gradually faded away.
 Nil Barheit gives the credit of .avertipg trouble to Agent White, who never once lost his wits. and handled the Indians like a veteran. The Post trader denies that any breast works were thrown up. The moment the Uintahs and White Rivers saw no menace, was toward them, then all danger disappeared. The Indians are now harvesting quietly and going. about their usual Occupa. tions. They don't like the Ninth Calvary, because it is composed of negroes, whom Indians call buf. -falo soldiers li because of, their woody heads, But the dislike is not sufficient to cause apprehen- sion.

SALT LAKE CITY. TRIBUNE: {

Mir, Bartlett left the agency on the 4th inst :, 'with a number of the Ute teamsters topmchase pro- visions in this city, and that of it. self is a proof that no trouble is feared, as if there was, not an In tllan would have come away with him. Moreover, Mr. Baheit would not have left his'wife and children beyond his reach had. he not felt assured of their safety. That the Indians are greatly excited over the coming of the troops he did not deny. He says the UiDtah and White River Indians were in fact so stirred up that the thirty white people had all arrangements made for rendezvous and a fight to the death in case of any out break. The object Of. establishing Fort Duchesne was, in the first place to control the tfncompah. gre Indians, who have been shoot ing one another with that pleasing freedom so characteristic of the noble red man, and who have been wandering over into Colorado to get thrashed by the COW boys while committing depredations.

1t has been the aim Of the teach
ers during the past term, to take the
pupils over a prescribed and some
what limited amount of matter in a
thorough manner, rather than over a
great deal specifically, and thus to
lay a solid foundation for an endur.
ing and useful education. Parents
and others interested in the cause of
education are earnestly requested to
visit the school and examine into its
practical workings. 1t is believed
that the school could be very much
benefited by this means.

Unsolicited Ditch Tax.
RRocKwAY CtNTRE J,u.7, I

bRoCkwAf CtNTRk J1b. ., 10 o.
A citizen d"si'cs t. know why u
is that ). y. WEIGH was not com
PEELED to pay his ditch tax of about
$500, while the town treasurer re-
auired all other residents to pay.
Citizen has been informed that 5.
o. WEIGH was the prompter of the
ditch and took prominent part IN
getting it made, and when he got
the benefit refused to pay.
Citizen is also Informed that it is
the duty of the town treasurer, in
case of personal property being III
his township to levy on same and
collect the ditch tax.
This was not done and the re-
suit will be that the township vii
be obliged to pay it.
This may be excusablc for the
reason alledged by the treasurer
that if he levied on Mr.. Welch's per
sonal property, law suit would b.
the result.
This looks like too much care fol
township interests, to let Welcl
keep his money; but justice, if any
existed, should be extended to al
others, who were not so able to pay
az WEIGH.
Citizen believes, however, that
treasurer's duties are wholly prescrib
ed by law, and that his duties II
such matters are not discretionary
He should have seized Welch's per
sonal property and collected the tax
