LEGISLATION Necessary 10 Protect Then'
A correspond. mt of the K no Joarno'
says: much has been written and
many have BEEN the discussions as to the
best means OF outstanding aud sappiy lug
water for irrigation purposes IN this
State. As yet, little, if anything, has
been suggested as to matter OF almost
ca ,al importance, that of protecting the
citizens of the State in their rights to
W .ter acquired by appropriations, by leg
station. The recent decisions in Ca'i.
lorna, which have established riparian
rights, might be followed were the ques-
tiou raised, aud thus, many weli-to-do
r,ucher's tields Guild soon become bal :
re wastes. Those who have appropri-
ated from the Truckee, Humboldt, Car
son aud Walker rivers should be pro-
tected, and have their rights establisht d
in the order of their actual appropriation.
This can easily be done by legislation, so
far as the State can protect these ac-
Quired rights"

Astonishing Revelation by a Local
Man of Medicine.

"There are a number of ladies in
Mexico who make a practice of
chewing" remarked a local physi-
clan to a reporter last evening.
"Gum ?" asked the reporter.
Gum ?" retorted the man of
medicine; "no, tobacco!"
"You don't mean to say that
there are ladies in Mexico who
chew tobacco ?"
THAT'S just exactly what
NEAR and | can now think of half
a dozen of our best ladies who
indulge the filthy habit"
"How do you know this, doctor ?"
swell, in this way: A lady is
suffering from a slight indisposi-
ton and l call upon her. The first
request is to e her tongue. All
that is-doctor, just excuse me a
moment, she replies, and off she
goes into another room where her
mouth is given a thorough rinsing.
When she comes back [ examine
her tongue, and though her mouth
is clean / can smell the fumes of
tobacco. You would be surprised
to hear the names of these ladies,

Maxwell's Fathers Complaint.

FROM tne 5t. Louis HOSt-DiSDatch.
Mr.. Jack P. Richardson, at
whose house Samuel N. Brooks,
the father of MAXWELL" stopped,
during his stay in this city, re-
ceives letters frequently from the
old scheolmaster of Hyde, and ii
was reported that in one of his
recent epistles Mr.. Brooks had
taken occasion to score the local
masons most severely for their
failure to exert the Masonic infu-
ence in his sons behalf. This
morning a POST Dispatch reporter
called on Mr.. Richardson to ascer-
tain if the report was true.
Mr.. Richardson said: "I cannot
give you the letter, for it is purely
personal, but 1 assure you that the
information you have received is
entirely erroneous. There is moth
ing in the Masonic law which binds
a man to anything which his con-
science may not approve of, and
Mr.. Brooks, knowing that, could
not, and did not, expect any men,
bers of the order, who believed his
son guilty, to interfere in his be-
half. Not only does Mr.. Brooks
not entertain hard feelings towards
the local Masons, but he scarcely
ever writes without telling me to
give his respects to the members
of the lodge to which 1 belong"

Our Trouble in a Nutshell.

The mothers in Mexico are ex-
ercised over their boys going to
four or five parties a week, to the
neglect of their studies. The
prairie city surely has a rough
road to travel. The city hall steps
need sweeping the young ladies
are talking of ~boycotting the young
men who can't or won't pay for rs
cent theatre tickets, but are willing
to see them home from prayer
meeting some of the citizens are
after the gum chewing habit, a
young man has a leaf from his
diary printed and the outcome of
his financial condition is he goes
sockless this winter and is badly
in debt besides. And the last
wall is from a good mother who has
a 16-year-old "kid," as the LEDGER
calls the young hopeful, who goes
out five night a week to parties.
We extend Jul sympathy to the
sister city and hope the good peo-
pie will settle their vexatious

WRECKED IN THE YARDS.
Disastrous Passenger Smash-up
on the Alton Monday Afteroon.

Alton passenger train Nc. 4S
come laundering up from the east
exactly on time Monday. At
2:2O, when the train was within two
hundred yards of her stopping
place, several loaded freight cars
on a siding come rolling down
toward the main line, reaching the
track in time to be struck by the
incoming passenger. The first a
to be struck was loaded to the top
with shelled corn, and the big
engine literally plowed it's way
through the she'll and its contents.
The ears that followed were also
treated to a smashing that will
relegate them to the bone yard, and
when the engine vas stopped it
was so badly damaged as to render
it useless without a thorough over
hauling in the shops.
Engineer Pressly saw the danger
Just before the cars were struck
and he Immediately reversed his
engine and calling to the fireman,
jumped. The latter, Jasper Brady,
without looking up, made a head
long plunge, striking the ground
on his head and shoulders. The
engineer suffered a sprained ankle,
but Brady's injuries are far more
serious. He was taken to the
Globe Hotel.
The cause of the accident is rather
obscure, but witnesses say that
the wrecked ears were being switch
ed on the siding and just as No.
4S hove in site, were violently
pushed down the track. A brake
man applied the brakes, but from
a defect they refused to act. Hence
the disaster.

Extensive Improvements on Their
Milling Property in this City.

The milling property of William
Pollock & Co., of this city, is I'M
dergoing extensive improvements.
The corn and wheat handling de-
partments of the mill have been
made entirely separate and prepar-
ations have been made to take care
of an enormous quantity of corn
during the coming winter. A"drag"
has been erected from the Smelling
room to the railroad track on the
south, for the accommodation of
foreign customers who want their
corn shelled and Immediately re-
loaded into the cars. The capacity
of the mill throughout has been in
creased until it is now one of the
largest and most complete milling
establishments i'll the West. An
other engine, an "Atlas" of 25-
horse power, has been added to
the motive power for the purpose
of handling corn alone. This
prosperous firm is composed of
William Pollock, G. c. Davis and
John M. Davis.

TWENTY DOLLARS A HEAD.
This is What the Republicans
Paid for Votes IN Indiana.

at takes money to conduct a
campaign" said Col. Eb. Hender-
son, "a prominent Indiana politician
Saturday; "but there is q limit to
the amount that can be legitimately
expended. In the recent election,
if the Republicans spent a dollar
in Indiana they spent a half mil
lion. Perhaps $4,000 of this
went to pay proper expense of the
campaign, but the rest of the
amount went to pay votes and for
no other purpose. The Republi-
cans paid such prices for votes as
were never heard of before in the
State. That was the reason that
although the money was not put
into the State until rather late, it
was 80 efficaclous. In previous
campaigns they had paid so, So or
possibly S. for votes, but this time
they gave brand new $40 bills as
crisp and bright IS the day they
were made, in exchange for votes
on Harrison and on State ticket.
Such sums staggered the poor fell
lows who had families and who had
played in hard luck. With the
winter coming on and no coal or
wood in the house 500 locked very
large, you may be sure. 1t meant
warm clothes for wife or children,
or shoes and hats all around. I
am sure many a poor devil who
would have spurned SIS was tempt
ed beyond his strength when he
saw the $40 bills and thought of
what they would buy for his little
ones"
"Where was most of this money
spent?
SIN the rural districts, among
the small farmers and working peo-
pie. The Democrats gained gen.
orally in the cities, and the tariff
issue did not hurt US in any degree.
In fact, had there been no illegiti-
mate use of money, 1 am confident
we would have gained the votes of
at least one thousand tariff reform
Republicans and have carried the
State by an increased majority"

house of Joe & Vic Barth last night
by Mr.. Joseph Barth, n of the
proprietors. Every department in
the commodious building, upstairs
and down, was seen by electric
light, and such an immense stock
of goods is rarely handled outside
of large cities. The firm is now in
its own quarters-the Reed build
ing, lately purchased - which is
stocked from bottom to top with
overcoats of all kinds, some of them
very elegant, a full line of winter
clothing, stylish hats. nobby neck
wear, full dress shirts, the finest of
undergarments, and everything else
that a purchaser in this line could
possibly want. Mr.. Barth inform
ed the press man that prices we're
considerably lower on most all
classes of goods, more especially
%overcoats, than at this season last
year. He also said that in a few
days he would have in an elegant
line of fancy furnishings suitable
for useful Christmas presents. See

Hutton on the Outlook


MEXICO, Mo-, Nov. 27.-Con-
gresham Hutton left for Washing
to-day to be present at the con-
vening of Congress Monday. He
is anticipating a spirited session.
He says that an effort will be made
by the Republicans to pass the
Dakota bill, making two States OF
the territory, and also the direct
tax bill refunding to the States
money paid to the government
during the war. The Democrats
will probably not oppose the ad-
mission of Dakota as one State,
but they will fight to the last the
bill admitting the territory divided.
Democrats generally will approve
the direct tax bill, the object of
which is to reduce the surplus in
the treasury and thus avoid any
reduction of the tariff.
