hees, when Mr.. Cover fully explained b 5
theories regarding our monetary system.
MIR. Voorhees, acknowledged that the
forty-flve years of thought which Mr..
Cover had devoted to this question had
promulgated ideas in advance of any
which he, the Senator, had formerly held.
MIR. Cover failed to get an audience with
the President, as he had hoped, but has
since written him explaining his views,
and asking for an opportunity to present
the same in lecture to the members of
the House and Senate. He confidently
expects that if he is given this opportu-
nifty he can make his ideas so clear that
they will be taken up as the issue upon
which the next Presidential election will
be fought, and as the foremost thinker
and champion of the cause, Mr.. Cover
thinks it not impossible that he may be
the candidate to carry on the fight.

TO CLEAR THE VEMAUGH.
A Large Amount of De to L Dislodged
at On


Mr.. Arthur Kirk, I'D charge of
the dynamiting at the stol bridge imme-
6iately after the flood, arrived from Pitts
burgh with his assistant, Captain Carney,
Monday. Their mission is to dislodge
the large amount of debris in the Cone
Conemaugh ut the Ten-Acre, consisting
of trees, logs, bridge iron, stumps, car
beds, etc.
After the work at this city was discon-
tinued by the State forces, there was a
considerable amount of dynamite left over,
in spite of the useless expenditure of that
explosive by Major Phillips on heavy
blasts. The aim of the gentlemen is to
destroy the debris at that point by using
some of the dynamite which had been
paid for by the State.
In order that there will not be the
danger from flying missiles which attend
ed the blasting at the stone bridge, they
have built very heavy raft, which they
Will float over the spot where the blast
will be made, thus stopping all missiles
which may be thrown up by the explo-
sion.
1t is the purpose of the projectors
of the work TO have the logs
and stumps drilled full of holes, into
which small quantity of dynamite will
be inserted and, several explosions taking
place at the same time, the debris will be
blown into small pieces and will float off.
The necessity of dislodging this obstruc-
ton IS apparent in the fact that were it
allowed to remain, it would catch large
amount of driftwood floating, which
would form a bar and in time would re-
suit in the forming of an island.
Mr.. Kirk is very much interested in
the Improvement of our rivers and says
that they will always give Johnstown
people trouble if not put in charge of a
Government engineer. If this were done
and the engineer had full charge of the
rivers, he could see that no encroach.
ments were made on it and with proper
petitioning to the Government we would
have steamboats, running up from Pitts
burgh. He says there is number of
people in Pittsburgh who are interested
in the coal fields on the Monongahlea,
who are opposed in every way to the
improvements OF the Allegheny or its
branches because it would naturally in
jure their business. He points to the Little
Kanawha IN West Virginia as having re-
ceived so much improvement at the
hands of the government. This river
was never navigable until improvements
were made which cost the United States
$150,000 year.
There are great many people who
think that there are bodies lying in the
bed of the old canal at the Ten-Ac and
the water will be drawn of to ascertain
the truth of the belief.
1t is quite likely that after the work as
at present mapped out is, completed, that
steps will be taken to have the Govern.
ment contribute sum of money toward
dredging the river in the entire vicinity of
the city.

Our Troubles Are Over.

10 me Editor the JoltnStotgn Democrat.
Citizen" the Tribune writer Is a COM
ical cuss. He says to-day, L" | am done,"
and then proceeds to write his brilliant
thoughts. The most of people stop when
they are done but "Citizen" goes on.
He is not that kind of man, and even
after he has apparently exhausted his
brilliant effort, he adds u post script,
moving to censuTe the Finance Commit.
tee for not employing your correspondent
instead of Schenk. 1t would have been a
good thing if it had.
Now, Mr.. Editor, | am not an ordinary
prophet, not even a Stuffed Prophet
but I predict that Schenk's report is not
worth the paper it is printed on--I mean
the Tribune paper.
The suggestion of changing the course
of the Stonycreck to the base of the Kern
vile Hill is an old one, There are many
people in this city now who believe that
was the original course of the stream.
But your correspondent believes
that scheme to be impractcable and
chimerlcal. If there was a ditch dug
along the base of the Kernville Hill an
immense retaining wall would have to be
built to keep the hill from sliding down
into the ditch. Judge Hamilton's delightfr
orchard and premises, and other parts O.
the hill, would slIdc down into the ditch.
That view of the matter is impracticabIe,
and there is not money enough in the
new city to do it. The government
building will be built long before the
course of the StonYcreek is changed
Mr.. Editor, the people, however, those
especially in the lower parts of the city,
should be delighted. After ten months
they have been furnished Engineer
Schenk's report. The Finance Commit
tee have covered themselves all over with
glory, and we have as a bullwarl of
safety against the flood, Schenk's report.
That is great source of safety to us
We are all safe, and the whole business
may goon,
am in favor OF practical work. The
courses of the rivers need not be changed,
but the river below the city should be
greatly widened, and another span should
be built to the stone bridge, and then
our troubles from high water
would cease, and "Citizen" would dry
ND. That will be a good thing for the
readers of the Tribune.

THE RETURNS ALL IN.

Pittsburgh Times, Saturday.
The $25 that came to hand yesterday
from Dresden for the sufferers by the
Johnslown flood is none the less welcome
because it comes so late. 1t is not year
since the flood, though the swiftness OF
events makes it seem longer. In the few
months that have passed, miles and miles
of new railroad track have been laid with
rails made in the mill through which the
food hurled its torrents, in triumph ter
rible and complete, but momentary.
Mans energy rescued its workshop
promptly from the rude assault of nature,
and the cowd and shrunken stream now
babbles feebly against the clnders that
invade its narrow channel. A new city
of Johnstown is rising rapidly on the ruins
Of the old, and the ancient lines of the
petty boroughs that furnished half
dozen citizens apiece chance of holding
Office will never rise again above the
sand that the flood swept over them.
Another year, and the visitor to Johns
town will trace the material handwriting
of the great flood only as the visitor to
Chicago notes the extent of the great fire,
by the improvements that have followed
it. Still it has been good long while
since the flood. 1t has been so long that
the citizens of Johnstown some months
ago forgot the man who shared their
hardships, cheered their despair and sue
cored their need, and gave their votes
unanimously to nominate another man for
Governor, Long enough for almost every
thing excep tor the Relief Commission to
furnish detailed and satisfactory report
of the money it expended.
But, courage! Etereity is ahead.
Dresden has been heard from with its
final subscription. Perhaps that is what
the Commission has been waiting on.
