+" Riotous Living"

To the Editor Of the Pioneer.
SIR,--In the Free Lance Of Saturday
there is a comparison made between two
candidates for legislative honors which for
scurrility and misrepresentation is worthy
Of the Free Lance. When one is represented
% having t'squandered his substance in
.riotous living" it shows to what depths Of
party degradation partisan will descend,
when he drags in the language Of scripture
to give color Of piety, while he "wtests it
to his own destruction" /"
We have no wish to pry inquisitively into
the style Of living, past or present, Of the
editor Of the Free Lanos, nor to give him
any more Insight into the style Of living Of
Mr.. Niche which he dssignates "riotous,'
than simply to say that We have enjoyed his
hospitality, both before and sinoe this
|editor knew him, and Mr. Niche needs
fear no comparison here, however frugal
editors proyerbislly must be. But this Is
not al. We have coed reason to know,
whatever the editor OF the Free Lance in
his ignorance or malice may say, that this
squandering must have been done within .
very recent date, otherwise Mr.. Niche.
could hs turn the crumbs Of his so-callcd
.squandered'' living into ready cash, 10

Let us Help One Another.

The first effective move m ade in the mat
ter Of the consideration Of the ques-
ton Of relief for those who are or
may be distressed on account Of the frost
calamity Of last August, was made on Tues
day evening last at the Presbyterian church.
Quite few citizens assembled. Mr.. C.Mc-
Candies was called to preside and Mr.. G.J.
Coulthard to officiate as secretary.
Mr.. J. W. Bennett stated tho origin and
object Of the call and at the suggestion of
the chairman, several expressed their opin-
ions and gave such information as they
possessed relative to the extent and chsrac-
ter Of the destitution said to exist. That
good many are and will be hard up seem, d
to be the general belief.
Bennett, committees were appointed for the
several school dis tricts north Of T. l59, i,
being understood that similar measures of
relief had been taken in behalf Of those liv-
ing south of T. 100. The duties of these
committees were declared to be the procur,
ing of information Of the number and con-
dition of those who might DO applicants for
relief in the future, cases to be reported to
a central committee for their approval.
The following were duly appointed:
From Amity school district Messrs. E. j.
Hurt, VIM. Emde and Alex. Brown.
Bottineau school district: Messrs. VIM.
Williamson, James White and Thomas Glib
son.
Peabody school district: sIessrs. John
Taylor, W. H. Gorrill and Vim. Smith.
The secretary was instructed to notify the
school officers of Eidswold, Fidelity, Lin
coin and Oak Greek school districts suggest
ing the appointment Of similar committees
from those districts. -.'..
On motion of Mr.. Bennett, a committee
vas appointed to solicit subscription; it be-
ing especially understood that the candi-
dates for Office now before tho people should
first be seen and requested to contribute. As
the 70 are several, the income of whose Of
tices range from $400 to 81, 500 u year, it
is confidently expected that quite sum will
be realized from those sources, which will
carry the unfortunate ones over until some
other measures of relief may he adopted
That committee consists of Rev. Mr.. Hawke,
Wm. Hubert and J. W Bennett. At. Mr..
Benefits Office, subscription list will be
ready for those who are able and willing 10
help our needy ones and sign. Messrs.
Hawke and Hubert viii also pass around
the paper, SO that no opportunity will be
lot slip to gather in the sheksls or anything
else that may be contributed for the smer-
gency.
The other committee (eentral) will b an
nounced in few days. They will make
provision for future meetings and for put
ting the machinery in motion to tide over
the time Of trouble. May God open the
hearts Of the people who can, especially the
candidates, help along the cause.

THE NEW RESERVOIR.
What the President OF the water Board
Has to Say About IL.

What the President OF the water Board
Has to Say About 1t.
This talk through the papers abou!
the machinery at the water works not
being equal To the strain Of pumping water
into the proposed new reservoir is all very
far from the facts" said President Jones,
of the Water Board, yesterday afternoon.
when the new pumping engine was put
in, a few years ago." he continued, 'it
was especially designed to pump all the
water passing through it to a height Of
seventy five feet above the present reser.
voir, should that amount Of work ever be
desirable. The proposed basin will only
be fifty to sixty feet higher than the exist
ing reservoir, 80 you zee that even when
the contemplated improvement is made,
the pump will not be worked to its full
capacity"
'How about the pressure on the street
maius and service pipesr Will they stand
the increased pressure?"
There's no doubt Of IL. The present
pressure on the pipes is estimated at So
pounds to the square inch. The pressure
with the new reservoir will be about ~
pounds That is very moderate. Why,
over at Martins Ferry the pressure is about
1876 pounds. The street mains will, have
no doubt, stand much more than ~ pounds
pressure here, and there can be little doubt
but that the lead pipes and general plumb
ing in the city wilsbe equal to the new or.
der oil thiogs. The Board devoted good
deal Of study to these matters before say
ing anything about the improvement they
had in contemplation, and think there
will he no trouble of any kind"

To-NIGHT's MEETING.
The Roll Of the Military to be Made Out
wsllsburg Men Mustered 10.

The Roll Of the Military To be Made Out
wslIsburg Men Mustered 10.
The Wellsburg military company was
formally mustered into the service OF the
State, Thursday evening, there being about
sixty men who took the oath. The COM
pany is known as the Wellsburg Guards.
The company formed at West Liberty, this
county, will probably be mustered in Mon
day night.
The meeting to be held this evening in
this city by those interested in the forma-
tion of one or more companies will be q
very important one. The place has been
changed from the Chamber Of Commerce
room, on Main street, 10 the Police Court
room, at the City Hall, the reason
being that the first named apartment
has been greatly torn up, prior to moving
the furniture, etc, 10 the new quarters Of
the Chamber in the Reilly block. II Is
desirable that all who took part in the
meeting OF last Monday evening, and those
who have signed the rolls Of the ward
committeeman during the week, as well as
those who may desire TO become identified
with the movement, but have neglected
to attach their names TO the rolls, he on
hand at to.night's mseting, and take part
in the deliberations Of the evening. II is
hoped to have the roll Of at least one large
company made out and signed this evening,
no that officers may be elected at once, and
the company mustered in early in the
coming week.
I. was stated yesterday that about SIXTY
men have signed the roll Of Q company at
Moundsyille and that the men will be
ready to be mustered in soon. The regi-
ment is growing in fine style.
