work. On the contrary. all the engineers
engaged in the irrigation survey declare
that topographic survey is unnecessary
for tha nnrn0aa of sattinu nadia raSaruoir

engaged in the irrigation survey declare
that Topographic survey is unnecessary
for the purpose of setting aside reservoir
sites and segregating the irrigable lands.
Notwithstanding these facts Major Pow
ell declares that topographic survey shall
preoede the irrigation survey, and that no
lands shall be opened to settlement until
his Topographic survey has been completed.
He estimated for the next fiscal year, end
ing June 80, 1891, $777, for Irrigation
survey, explorations, Investigations, etc.
The committee on appropriations of the
sundry civil bill the full amount of the esti-
mate, leaving the expenditure of the money
practically in the discretion of the director.
1t Is the avowed intention of Major Powell
to use as much of this appropriation as he
thinks proper for topographic surveys or
any other purpose which shall suit his fancy
or his schemes. He has also had the COM
mittee insert in the bill the usual appropri-
alton, 500, 900, for a topographic survey.
An idea of the magnitude of the geologi-
cal bureau may be asoertained from the
amount proposed to be appropriated in the
legislative and sundry civil appropriation
bills now pending. In the legislative bill
for salaries and rent $45.5OO is appropri
ated; in the sundry civil bill, for salaries
and other purposes connected with the geo.
logical and irrigation surveys. 81, 292, 200 is
appropriated. making an aggregate of $1,-
1857 700 to be used by Major Powell without
any specific direction of law. It will be OBJ
served that irrigation is to be charged with
about one-half this vast expenditure.
It must also be borne in mind that the peo-
pie of the states and territories interested
IN this matter are unanimously opposed to
the withdrawal of the public lands from
settlement and to these wasteful expendi-
lures for topography on the plea that it
will benefit agriculture. While Major Pow
ell is exertinR every effort to impede set

The Helena independent. [volume] (Helena, Mont.) 1875-1943, 1890-08-24

using the public lands as an excuse for de-
pleting the treasury, he has the audacity to
pretend that he is doing this in the interest
OF honest settlers and is fighting monopo-
lists and land grabbers. He accuses every
man who advocates the interest of the set
tiers of sinister motives, thereby conceal
ing his real object IN wasting the public
money.
Some have said: "What difference does
it make what Major Powell thinks about
the propriety of repeating the Law which
reserves all the irrigable lands in the
west from settlement? He certainly has no
legislative powers" In that they are mis-
taken. There seems to be NO limit to his
legislative power. He stated few years
ago with a small appropriation of $1,000
to explore the Colorado canyon. Upon
that he has built up bureau, by items in
appropriation bills, which overshadows any
of the great departments Of the govern
ment. He has more patronage UNDER his
direct control than the secretary of the
treasury and the secretary Of the interior
combined. He is not controlled by law.
He fixes the salaries of his appointees and
is free from all restraint of civil service.

ST. LOUIS, NO., Aug. 1S.-Express Mes
senger George A. Taylor. who has run on
the Chicago and Alton between Kansas City
and st. Louis, had desperate struggle
with two wild cats in his car on Wednesday
last. Taylor is 25 years old, and of rather
slim figure. The animals had Just been cap

from the Geological gardens of this city. and
were on their way here. About an hour out
of Kansas City. while Tayloy was busy in
the end of the car. he heard cracking
noise, and, turning. saw the
larger of the two wild cats
coming out of the cage, the Stats of which
had been gnawed apart. Taylor seized \
tarpaulin just in time, for the gray belly
OF the animal was dragging on the floor,
and an instant later came the spring. The
force as almost to knock the messenger
down. but he recovered himself and struck
the wild cat a fearful kick throuRh the tar
paulin, in which its claws had caught.
For some reason the second wild cat re-
manned in the cage, or else Taylor would

and fought. He knew that no help could
reach him. The train was running fast and
his car was locked to prevent robbery. Again
and again did the wild cat spring. Some
times Taylor would get it covered with tho
tarpaulin, and then before it could
get away he would kick the snarlinR, snap
ping beast beneath the tarpaulin with all
his power. Finally the kicks began to tell.

he attacked the animal. 1t turned, and
with two Jumps regained its cage and COM
panion. Taylor stood guard over the cage
with the gas pipe until the train stopped,

alarm. The animals were soon secured and

ously hurt. The cat was sick from the
kicks 1t had received, but its keeper ssys II
