Favors the Bridge.

One of the questions which is cutting
quite figure in the Sixth ward is the
Broadway bridge, and Mr. Melady's po-
sition is making him good many
friends among the voters on the flats.
Mr.. Melady favors the building of the
bridge, and as this is what the fat peo-
pie want they are inclined to favor his
candidacy rather than take their
chances with man who may be doubt
full on that issue. Mr.. Melady believes
that the improvement of such a large
part of the ward would result from the
bridge, that he stated his position early
in the game when the subject was
raised, and while other candidates quib-
BILE he is gaining votes.

WINNIPEG, Man, April 26.-Reports
reached Winnipeg last night that the
ice in the Red river at Selkirk had
begun to move, but shortly afterward a
jam had occurred at one of the big bends
in the river opposite st. Peters Indian
reserve, blocking the immense flow of
water TO such an extent that it rose with
dangerous rapidity, and steamboat men
demonstrated at the dangerous aspect
of affairs. Towards dusk there was no
abatement of the water, and special
messengers from st. Peters conveyed
the news that the jam showed no signs
Of weakening. The damage will amount
to several thousand dollars. All lum-
Der piles are afioat on the fats, and, al
though strenuous efforts have been
made to prevent them going adrift, the
loss will be considerable. Lumber
offices, frame buildings, were all re-
moved to the higher lands below the
town site, So that the loss Will not be
heavy in that respect. The loss to
steamboat owners will be heavy. A

men are here for the purpose of fixing
things up in the democratic ranks so
that the Yenkton county delegation to
the democratic territorial convention
will be for Church first last and $50 on
ad infinitum." II would seem that some
cheek would be required for such n pro-
ceedlng and 1t must be that Mr.. Shuroh
knew what he was doing when he named
the agitating committee for Yankton
county. To-day Colonel Gale was in
formed by q reporter of the election of

OF Boyton and Gale in this city, their
rooms at the Merchants have been the
scene of daily and nightly oopfaos be-
tween themselves, L. b. Farmer and
other local democrats, and 1t may be
taten for granted that the wires are
all ready TO pull.
But while the surface of the political
sea may appear as tranquil as a june
morning, there is an ander current OF
thought which will volve Into action
among the friends Of Day in Yankton
county. While Boynton and Gale think
for othess, there are men who do theil
own cogitatlng and if sn attempt is made
to carry any democratic convention il
this county for Louis x. Church there
Will be music of the most classic kind
One democrat who is known to be an

things may seem So, but they amt and
