The rain, reported to us by Mir. Bonnard, in Dripping Springs Valley, few days since, was phenominally great. Griflith's ranch was greatly damaged; orchard covered by sand and rock, cellar filled with water and prop erty therein totally destroyed. or great ly damaged. This precipitation was doubtless one of the heaviest in So short time ever known, hut such oc- eurrences are not uncommon in arid regions. Rain Is the most capricious of all the meteorological phenomena. Tho quantities which have been record ed at some places, to have fallen at one time, are truly enormous. The follow ing are few of the most remarkable that we have any knowledge of At Joyense, in France, 3l17 inches fell in 22 hours; at Geneva 30 inches in 24 hours; at Gibraltar.

The river in many plnces changed its channel, cutting through farms and washing away houses at Mammoth and Dudleyyiile. It is estimated that fully fifty per cent of the farmers of the valley lost their crops. Nearly the entire Dudleyyille townsite was destroyed, and the river, when Mr. Patton was there, ran within fifty feet of Geo Cooks store and was rapidly undermining the intervening ground, despite the efforts of some forty men to divert its course Mir.

The Globe-republican., 1890-02-05

A COUPLE of weeks ago the Dodge City
GLOBE REPUBLICAN contained an elaborate
article discussing the necessity of an inspec
ton of liquors as means of promoting tenn
perance. Judge Frost, the editor. takes the
ground that liquors should come under the
same provisions as our food product Since
there are no means of totally prohibiting the
liquor traffic, why not observe its manufac
ture and avoid it's authorizations, rs in food
products. If the law recognizes its sale why
not recognize its purity. Judge Frost covers
the ground pretty thoroughly and his sugges.
ton that Il national law be established
against the adulteratiOn of liquors are time
ly, and the point is well taken. The prohibit
tionists ought to look after the manufacture
of the pOisons, and by these means they can
measurably control the traffic and greatly
lessen its evils and its bad effects. The art-
Gle is worthy of fuller Observation-Disclosures
West Echo.
The above endorsement of our temper
ance platform is given by Judge n. B.
klaine. editor of the CimarrOn Ne7;
Wea Echo. a staunch temperance man,
who few years ago was the prohibition
candidate for secretary of state. His
opinion is highly valued.

! SOME of the reSubmiSSiOniStS take refuge
behind the pretense that they are men hav-
ing Il superior understanding of the princi
| pies of law and who therefore desire con
stitutiOnal convention. that they may en-
graft their powerful ideas upon the charter
of our liberties-that is transforming the con
stitutiOn into an instrument of the liquor sa
loon. Among those who dodge behind the
constitutional convention excuse are one
hundred and fifteen republicans OF Dodge
| City, including editor ID. NJ. Frost, of the
LOBE-REPUBLICAN, Mayor Il. w. Evans,
Probate Judge ID. w. Mofiitt, CITY Clerk Geo.
f. Jones, and Deputy United States Marshal
Fred Singer.
The above slap Dodge City and her
citizens get from the hands of the Tope-
ka correspondent of the New York Voice,
the leading organ of the prohibition
party. The facts stated are about as
near the truth as such roaring fanatics
usually get. The only reason for assum-
ing that resubmission had anything to
do with organizing the aforementioned
club is that it was done in Dodge City,
and shortly after a resubmissiOn agita-
ton in the eastern part of the state. 1t
might be added here that good major
ity of said club are our strongest tenn
perance men. But. Notwithstanding the
terrified screams of this prohibition Voice
the fact still remains that about one
fourth of the territory entitled to repre-
sentation in the state Legislature is barred
from representation on constitutional
grounds. Courts of justice are hamper
ed in their work. and numberless other
abuses are inflicted by this charter that
guarantees justice and equality to all.
The state has outgrown it. These abuses
fall heavily upon the pioneer in his prai
RTE home and he enters his complaint at
the nearest point. So nothing is more
natural than that at Dodge City or Gar
den City movement should be inaugu-
rated looking to the redress of these
grievances. That action must be taken
Immediately is evident from these facts:
The legislature of 1893 will be called
upon to re-apportion the senators and
representatives in the state legislature,
and this simply cannot be done under
the present constitution. Then why
perpetuate all these other abuses longer?
The Legislature that meets next January
must do something to meet the emer-
gency. Why not call a constitutional
convention and meet this whole matter
at once. This fearful, loud-mOuthed,
follower judges the temperance
sentiment of the state by the deplorable
impotency of his own party, and sees
certain defeat for prohibition. 1t is GER
tain that a new constitution must be Gre
ated sooner or later; it is also certain
that prohibition. along with all other
issues. must stand upon its own merits.
When will the temperance people of this
state be better able to settle the question
than now? Let us have the cOnstitu-
tiOnal convention, and let the people
prepare to meet the emergency.

EDITORS GLOBE-REPUBLICA Re
ferring to the very able editorial in your
issue of January 18th, 1890, to wit: The
Question of the Hour; the Purity of our
Food and Drink. etc." have something
to say. There are two questions that
endeavOr not to comment upon or argue,
namely. religion and temperance, believ-
ing ii TO be the duty of all to thoroughly
investigate for him or herself; not mere
ly to take the word, probably not the
opinion, of some glib talker or long faced
presumed good man. but after investi-
cation and mature deliberation follow
the dictates of his or her own conscience.
In the article 1 find great food for
thought on the all-absorbing question
of temperance. Possibly these are nee
essary evils. Evils exist and the inten-
ton of the law is not accomplished.
Certainly from the beginning sin and
evil have existed. If they cannot be
crushed out by force and blows why not

The sheriff of Ford couaty- Kansas,
Dodge City the county seat, addressed q
letter to B. F. Springer, of this city sta
ting that the people Of Dodge are much
interested in line of railroad direct
from that point to Trinidad. The latter
inquired what this city would do for such
an enterprise. Trinidad feels much in
terested in such line. 1t would mean
large expectation of coal and added
trade generally. A survey was once
made from Trinidad to the Kansas state
liue hoping that the Dodge City, Monte
yuma & Trinidad railroad, or some simi-
lar line. might be glad to utilize that sur
vey. If Dodge City people wish to work
on such an enterprise they will find a
cooperative hand ut this end.-Trinidad
Citizen.
There seems to be no doubt but that
the Dodge City, Montezuma & Trinidad
railroad company intends completing
their line to Trinidad this season. Every
effort should be made to induce them to
60 through on this line. They admit
that this line is 100000. cheaper than
any other, and when the extra subsidies
that could be offered on this line by
Springfield. Moscow. Woodsdale, Moon
light. Candiff. Richfield, WestOla, and
all town on this line in eastern Colorado,
should be big inducement.-Ste

1889. The greatest departures from the
normal temperature occurred in the mid
die Atlantic states and the lower lake
region. where the monthly mean ranged
from 100 to l3o above the normal. and
this excess in temperature was greater
than that of the previous month in this
section. In the Ohio and central Miss
issippi valleys, and generally throughout
the Southern states, it was from 100 to

per Mississippi valley and Southern New
England the mean temperature of the
month ranged from % oSo above the
normal.
The month was colder than usual from
Dakota and Colorado westward to the
Pacific coast, the greatest departure
from the normal occurring in northern
Montana, where the mean temperature
for the month was 80. or 12o lower

SENATOR INGALLS, speech was not of that
virulent order visited on Warner Miller,
Brown, of Georgia, and Voorhees, ut divers
times 1t was genuine attempt at states
manship and so far as 1t went was good.
The Senator stopped, however, just at the
point where the issue hangs. Justice. he said
is the remedy for the evil, but to the question
how We are to secure justice the Senator
vOuchsafes no answer. The man who eN
poets the democracy of the south to proffer
Justice to the negro is reckoning away off.
Justice to be had, must be wrested, not by
force of lead but by law. The southern prob
lem cries ont for n statesman-Topekd Capital.
If the senator who uttered the pro-
phetic words at the close of his speech,
which we quote below. did not give 4
remedy than we want to call on Joe Hud-
son, of the CAPITAL. to show his states
manship and give us the solution of this
perplexing difficulty. Here is what Sen
ator Ingalls, proposed:
Mr. President there are four solutions to
this problem before us. The first is amalga-
ton; the second, determination; the third,
separation: the fourth, Acknowledgement;
but sir, there Is fifth, the universal solvent
of all human difficulties, and that never has
been proposed and never has been tried and
that is the solution of justice, for which every
place should be a temple and all seasons
summer. appeal to the south to try the ex-
pertinent of Justice. Stack your guns. Open
your ballot boxes. Register your voters,
black and white, and if, after the experiment
has been fully and honestly tried. it appears
that the African race is incapable of civiliza
ton; If 1t appears that the complexion burn
ed upon him by the Indian sun is incompati-
BILE with freedom. will pledge myself tocon-
suit with You about some measure of solving
the race problem"
If this does not suggest a method. and
how it may be secured. then we are
wholly unable to comprehend the Sem
ator's meaning of the words spoken.
The remedy proposed is to treat the AZ
rican race justly, and the Senator espec-
tally appeals to the South to ''try the ex-
pertinent of Justice" How: By asking
them to ''stack your guns; open your
ballot-boxes: register your voters, black
and white" That is the experiment he
urges upon the South, one which it is
claimed has never been tried. Let this
be done and the solution of the race
problem will be solved. and no further
statesman need be looked for.
