The Burr outfit at Blue Hill and
Riverton want to know if The CHIEF
will have the gall to deny that Judge
Gaslin was drunk this time" We
will most certainly deny it until bet
ter evidence is introduced. No one
disputes the fact that Judge Gaslin
drinks, but THE CHIEF does not know
it only from hearsay, not beng in the
habit Of frequenting saloons, ourself.
If the Burr outfit know the facts they
must have been there. However the
time to fight . man of Judge Gaslin's
stripe if he is net qualified for Office
is before he is elected, not directly
afterwards, ii don't show good sense.
The people elected the Judge know
ing his faults, and arc therefore, re-
sponsibIe, and just such people Is
the Burrs' We have no doubt helped
to elect hin knowing that he vas not
a proper man for the responsible po-
sit,ou he occupies, and then turn

the central grounds of the exposition. As
can be seen from the picture, the tower Is
built entirely of iron Orders and pillars,
in the simple construction of four great
shafts, consisting of four columns each,
starting from the four corners of the base
and merging into the single great shaft
which forms the main part of the tower.
This shaft ends in the great cupola, or
Alpine reception room, which, in turn, is
surmounted by n still higher lantern or
lookout, whose observation platform will
be upon the dizzy plane of 1000 feet.
There are three galleries crcling the
tower. The first great gallery, just above
the archway, stands 1875 feet above the
ground, and measures nearly 800 feet
each way. Here are placed cafes, restau
rants, reading rooms, smoking and loung-
ing compartments, and an the amuse-
ments and comforts of French resort.
Thousands of people at one time can be
made at homo in this great Enclosure far
up in the cool air without any necessity
of erowding or treading on one another's
toes. 1t is also proposed to give band
concerts daily at this stage in the journey
heavenward, so that the first gallery will
probably become the great rendezvous
and promenade, and the haneurs and the
hauts gommeux will use it, as they do the
boulevards, for their afternoon stroll.
even though they are as high in the air rs
the towers OF Notre Dame. The second
gallery, still forming part of the base of
the tower, rests lightly upon its iron sup
ports at height of $50 feet, or about fif-
teen feet higher than the highest part of
Milan Cathedral. Here is a repetition of
The life upon the first gallery below, for a
more select few.
Finally, as the tower mounts up farther
and farther, past the level, first of st.
Peters, then the Strasbourg Cathedral
and the great pyramid, the cathedrals of
Rouen and Cologne, ana, last of all, the
great Washington monument, and then
stretches it's slender shaft through the re-
manning Lundreds of feet toward the
summit, there is placed at the top, where
the cupola begins, third gallery, SO
feet in the air, small in comparison to the
others. but still more than fifty feet broad
each way. Rest and refreshment will be
found here, as well as below.
The whole tower weighs about Is, 900, 900
pounds, or 1900 tons. This weight is
distributed over the foundation soil, it is
computed, at a pressure of q little less
than five pounds to the square centimeter.
Also the wind resistance of the tower is
calculated at $50 pounds to the square
meter, while the highest wind ever OBJ
served in Paris would not give half of
this pressure. The tower is fitted up on
the inside of the shafts with elevators.
There are half n dozen connecting the
first two galleries with the grounds, and
two 60 TO the top, the extreme height OF
which is 1000 feet.

The Florida legislature met in regular
session at Tallahassee. Gen. j. b. Wall Of
Tampa was chosen president of the sem
ate and DIR. j. /. Gaskins of Starke speaker
OF the house. In taking his seat the latter
made brief speech in which he said: Il
cannot believe it was ever the intention Of
Jefferson that any man receiving a majority
of the votes OF the whole people should not
take the position OF President of the United
States. Yet the startling fact confronts us
that Cleveland received $4,000 more votes
than his opponent and still is not President.
1t is the duty Of the Florida Legislature to
inquire into and correct this defect in the
national organism i'm so far as il can" The
sentiment was greeted by wild applause.
