colonel, having risen 10 that position from
private through all the gradations Of
rank. At the close of the war he studied
law with his father, the Hon. John A..
Matson, at Greencastle, and was three
times elected county prosecutor. He en-
gagged actively in politics and became a
leader among the democrats of Putnam
county. He was elected to the Forty
fifth, Forty-eighth and Forty-ninth con
crosses, and was reelected over Chase,
republican, 10 the Fiftieth congress two
years ago. His services in congress have
reflected credit upon himself and the
democratic party.
Capt. w. r.. Myers.
Capt. William r. Myers, the candidate
for lieutenant governor, Is a native OF
Ohio, having been born in the Buckeye
state fiity-two years ago. His parents
moved 10 Indiana when he was quite
young, and settled in Madison county.
He received common school education
and afterward studied law lie had scarcely
begun the practice OF his profession when
the war broke out, and he enlisted rs q
member OF Co. c., Forty-seventh Indiana
regiment. He saw four years of active ser
vice, participating in all the engagements
of his regiment and rising from private 10
captain. At the close of the war he re-
turned 10 Anderson and resumed the
practice OF his profession. He began
taking part in politics early in the 70s, his
popularity at his home and his ability as
a public speaker at once pushing him TO
the front. In 1873 he made his first race
Tor office, being nominated for congress
by the democrats of the old Sixth dis
tIict. His competitor was Gen. William
Crosse of Henry county, and the
district usually gave 4 republican majority
of some 800; but Capt. Myers made a
gallant race and was triumphantly
elected by 600 majority. He was dis
tinguished member of congress, but owing
10 a gerTymander of the state his county
was placed in a new district, and he re-
turned home TO find himself renominated
against Godlove :. Orth, then one of the
most prominent republicans in Indiana. in
a district overwhelmingly republican. He
again demonstrated his ability as a vote
getter by running 1000 ahead of his
ticket, being defeated by only 400 votes,
while Albert q. Porter carried the district
by 400. This the captain regards as the
best race he ever made. In 1882 he was
nominated for secretary OF state and
elected by l0,690 votes, leading the ticket.
He was renominated in 1884 and again
elected. Capt. Myers is a splendid can
vasser and has always been remarkably
successful on the stump. His record
shows that he has invariably led his
ticket. No man has a wider acquaintance
in the state.

The Rtverbed Makes Good
Ring.
On Monday afternoon, at about half
past O'Clock, two single men of this
city met at the corner of Spring and
First streets, to select grounds where
they could settle dispute as to each
others science, which arose on Saturday
night. They decided on having a
knockout in as many rounds as
the weakest could stand up to it. Both
were we'll developed and about 26 years
of age, weighing about lS5 pounds apiece.
One is native of Georgia and the other
was born in this State. They chose the
river bed, just south of the city limits, as
the place for the battle, and in few
minutes they and three of their friends
started for that place. About twenty
minutes bsfore sunset they threw
off all their superfuous clothing
and eet to work in good style. Both
were hard hitters and knock downs were
frequent. The Californian fought well,
but the Georgian proved the longest
slayer and forced his opponent to cry
enough. The fight lasted forty minutes
and was as pretty as has been seen in
this vicinity. Both men were on the
street yesterday with clouds about their
eyes.

Mr.. J. w. Frey paid glowing tribute
to Mr.. Bryant's course and prophesied
that the enterprise he had inaugurated
would be successful in all ways. In the
business in which he was engaged in in
Los Angeles he could discount San Fran
cisco prices, and believed through the
excellence of the workmen in the employ
of the Burbank outfit, that it could do 80
also.
Mr.. f. G Hogland, the Secretary and
Treasurer of the company, was the next
speaker, and most happy one.
Ex-President of the Council, Mr.. Breed,
spoke briefly. He thought that the growth
and progress OF South California depended
upon manufactures.
After the talk was over, leader Dou
glas, of the band, discoursed inspiriting
strains of music. 1t was remarked that
there were but few of such as he and
the Meme brothers.
But what would Burbank be without
the Providencia Land, Water and Devel-
opment Company. This enterprise is
most gigantic in its operations. The
original purchase of the company en-
braced II 900 acres of the finest land on
Gods footstool, 5000 of which has been
subdivided in parcels from ten to fifty
acres each. Eighteen months ago there
were five families in Burbank to-day
there are 150. The company's opera
tions reach over half a million of dol
lars. 1t has expended $4,000 for water
supply and donated 1000 to the
factory and 10000 to other enterprises.
Captain Richards, the secretary and
promulgator OF the company, is all
right.
