The state republican. (Jefferson City, Mo.) 1871-1896, 1890-07-10

CHAIRMAN Filley rose and read a
lengthy address.-G.-D.
The 800 prominent republicans
who attended the committee meeting
held in st. Louis on the 9Th inst,
and who no doubt read the above,
will be surprised at the little things
that that paper resorts to in its effort
to injure Mr.. Filley. Everybody
present knows that he did not read q
lengthy address, but delivered Q
short, able, extemporaneous speecl
that was enjoyed and heartily ap
plauded by all present.

INGALLS, AND VEST.

1t has often been said that Vest is
to the democratic party what ingalls,
is to republicanism. The ignorance
that such q comparison displays
needs but the suggestion to be e
1t is as Giant tc Lilliputian, but they
seem to see it not an adobe, to a
mansion house, but the film on the
eye has obscured the democratic
vision. The scholar car see, can
think, the mossback democracy can
do neither. The two men are Us UNI
like, as unequal in intellectual ca
pacity, in powerful philippics, in
masterful presentation of thought, in
clcquence, in craftsmanship, in
scholarship, as the most extraordin-
airy when compared with the most
ordinary of this human family. 1t
forces upon the mind the recognition
of the puerile intellect Of q party that
has grown fossilized with the dead
and dying past, when it can blindly
comfort itself with the thought that
Vest is TO them what Ingalls, is to
the nation. Can mans vision, can
his intellectual powers, be so dark.
ened, so blunted, by mere inertness
that he for a moment truly and sim
cerely believes that Vest can rise
higher than Ingalls, knees in a COM
parison of the intellect Of the two
men. 1t may be so. 1t would not
be any stranger, perhaps, than the
general blindness of q disintegrating
party. 10 a man of ordinary dis
elimination, one who occasionally
thinks for himself, no such mistake
could ever be made. Has Vest evel
been called upon by any of the great
magazines for his views on any ques'
ton whatever? We think not. Has
he ever uttered n word that will live
after he is called to his fathers? We
can recall nothing. But why pro
long an inquiry that is so barren O.

There is one aspect in which he i
looked upon as great, and that is a

The proposition of the Bulletin
to put line of buoys on the Vol
cano road is worth considering, but
will not be necessary when the Ma
tional reformers run the govern
mental machine. The plan is to dig
canal from the Volcano to Hilo
deep enough to accommodate the
largest steamers. A line of packets
will then be established to make the
trip in an hour and half. The Bull
letin is to send one of its editors
any of them will do,-to supervise
the work SO that the public may
have every guarantee that the work
will be done WE'LL The whole is to
cost only $4,000.

and they expected to commence operations
soon. The dam which held the waters
back was ITO feet long at the base and 400

BIG DEAL.

The Northern Pacific Magnate Becoming
Heavily Interested In the Twin Cities.
It has leaked out that Henry Willard has
purchased o controlling interest in the st.
Paul and minneapolis street railway sys-
tens lover 900 miles of road), the st. Paul
Gas Light company and the Edison cleo
trio light plant. Mr.. Willard has also pur-
chased a large interest in the Meeker
island property, where it is proposed
to improve the immense water
power now running absolutely to
waste. Mr.. Willard was in confer.
ence at New York for three days with
Thomas Lowry, president Of the street
railway systems of the twin cities, and
Crawford Livingstone, president of the
Gas company. 1t is proposed to use
the Meeker island power to generate cleo
tricity for the running Of the street cars,
the lighting of the two cities and eventu-
ally to heat them as we'll. Messrs. Lowry
and Livingstone are interested with Mr..
Willard in the Meeker Island project. Sew
eral Minneapolis capitalists are also in II
for large sums. The amount Of money
involved in the three great schemes is over
$40, 600, 900.

DRUNK ON QUlNINE.
THAT ~ A CHICAGO pREAcura,s
EXPLANATION OF HIs CONDUCT.

He Had Taken an Overdoss-A Row Over q
ltevival-A Bishops Move ssckwards-
Other News of other Sorts.
There was an unusual attendance at the
Second Baptist church ut Holyoke, Mass,
Sunday. Protestants and Catholics alike
were there. They went to hear what posi-
bic explanation the Rev. DR.. Lorimer, OF
Chicago, could make of his bitter attack on
Catholicism in his lecture Friday night on
The French Revolution" When Dr.. Lor.
inner stepped upon the platform that night
his face was Fed and inflamed and his gait
uncertain. Without any reference to the
subject of the lecture lie plunged at once
into q rambling attack upon the Roman
Catholic church. As he proceeded it was
noticed his speech was lndistinct and his
words incoherent. As he kept on the peo-
pie began to get up and go out until the
hall was almost deserted. Then the cler-
gyman retired. His friends knew not
what to make Of 1t and said he must have
been drugged.
Finally it was announced the doctor
would make ar explanation from the
pulpit of the Second Baptist church. In
the pulpit beside Pastor Booth was DIR.
Lorimer. After the opening exercises DIR.
Booth arose and said he had a statement
to make in regard to DIR. Lorlmer's con-
duct Friday night. DIR. Lorimer was not
on that occasion under the influence of
liquor as had been intimated. but VIVA srf.
fering from the effects of an overdose
of q%uinine. He had been i'll, and had
taken SO much quinine it had robbed him
of his mental and physical powers. DIR.
Lorimer then arose, and, with tears
streaming down his cheeks, said Dr.. Booth
had truly explained the terrible affair. No
one regretted the occurrence more sim
cerely than he, and it afforded him pleas.

a Panama Butcl.ery,

A most dastardly and revolving crime
was pespetrated at the village of Charme
on the coast of the bay of Panama. Two
French gentlemen who stated a planta.
ton there not long ago were found one
morning in their house with their heads
completely severed from their bodies. On
search being made it was found that the
sum of $1,000 in silver, which had been
drawn by one of the partners from q bank
in Panama q few days before, and all their
jewelry and other personal valuables had
disappeared. Suspicion fell Immediately
OF the two laborers employed by them to
work the plantation, as OF inquiry it was
discovered that they had decamped. The
authorities here at once instituted a yigor-
GUS search for the fugitives, which has re-
suited in their capture.

Revival Question.

Or u Row Among RcltEtOnists Over the
Revival Question.
A series of rivals has been in PROCESS in
Rochester, N. ", for a month past, prin.
cipally in the Ashbury Methodist church.
Rev. Myron Adams, of Plymouth
Congregational church, preached a SER
non on REVEALS. in which he sharply
criticised them and likened the churches
where they were held to insurance COM
panies, who gave converts a religious
premium for the safety Of their souls.
Mr.. Adams sermon seems to have
stirred up q large sized hornets
nest. The Rev. DIR. Jones, of
Ashbury church, replied to Mr.. Adams
and preached to q large congregation. He
said that the %latter's statements were false
and his utterances disgraceful for a
Christian minister to make. He then de.
Tended the revival custom, and continued
by terming the Rev. Mr.. Adams as narrow
minded and illiberal. He said he was a
sort of back number minister, preaching to
an odd fogy" congregation, and hardly de.
served the courtesy Of a reply. He thought
everybody ought to pray for Mr.. Adams
salvation. and concluded in a very excited
state of mind, calling on Mr.. Adams to
prove his statements.
The Congregationalist minister is noted
for his liberal views ana has stirred up
other clergymen before. He is the author
of the work entitled Evolution in Relig-
ion" recently published, which has caused
much comment among critics.

of the arid lands of the west. It conte,n.
plates q survey Of the arid region aud the
division into districts by photographic

streams aud tributaries which they drain
and which may be made available for vat

local government similar to a county

ach to control their affairs subj4c act only to
the United States laws. There are also
provisions for the corporation OF the city
authorities with the district officers. An
objection to n feature Of the bill Is that
the basin districts would not be continedto
ono state aud n district may be composed
OF parts OF two states. This poiut is de-
laying the report on the bill. It further
provides that settlers may Obtain their land
by homesteads, retain ownership Of waters
within their districts, levy tax, mort
gage their land to companies who shall
furnish money for irrigation and do all
other things that may be necessary in con-
nection with fertilization. The bill will
provide that after a certain number of
years during which the irrigation company
shall be paid for it's surveys, its rights shall
cease. and reservoirs, canals and other
works pass into the hands and become the
property of settlers themselves. Federal

Valley.
Sheriff O'Neill has ssturnsd 10 Ph0nix
from the scene Of the Walnut dem disaster
with an additional list Of victims. TIE list
of the dead will probably reach stxty-Ave
or seventy.
The scene along the Hassayampa valley
through which the water rushed IL ono abe
solutely impossible to even partially de-
scribe. No tornado could have made such
q wreck. For miles the creek is filled With
dead bodies, trees, cacti, powders Of o
nous size aad weight. and every imagina-
BILE kind Of debris. Out Of the unknown
number of the dead but twelve bodies have
so far been recovered. and nearly;:All Of these
were found at points from twenty to thirty
miles below the spot from which the Hood
swept them.
An eye-witness Of tho terrible disaster
thus describes it: "A perpendicular wall
Of water nearly 100 feet high swept down
the valley, crushing everything in ito path.
Boulders Of prodigious weight we're tossed
on the huge waves like so many feathers.
Huge iron beams were picked up and sent
dancing on the mighty torrent like 90
many pieces Of cork. Several Of these
were found twisted and bent and imbedded
in the rocky walls Of the canons I've and
ten miles below where the dam stood. A
large steel safe, weighing nearly two tons,
belonging to one Of the mining firms, was
swept away and has not yet been found. It
contains $1,000"
Walnut Grove is situated forty miles
south of Prescott. aud the dam was com.
completed in 1873. It was constructed Of
stone. 1t lay in the typical position Of
such structures, closing the narrow
outlet OF Q wide valley. Its situation.
in the interior and many miles
from q railroad, precluded the use Of CO.
meut, while the sides Of the very canyon II
closes furnishes an %inexhaustible supply of
the best granite. The dam wal a wedge.
shaped core OF loose rock thrown in just
as it was blasted from the hillsides and
kept in place and shape by wide back and
front walls. These walls we're hand laid,
but were without cement. With no further
protection the water would, OF course, flow
away almost as fast us If no dam were
there. This protection was supplied by .
double apron or skin Of three-inch planks,
lined with tarred telling, calked and
painted with waterproof paint, covering
the whole water face of the dam, and re-
sembling in many ways the side Of a ship.
The dam was ITO feet high. and the lake,
which then formed the largest body Of
water in Arizona, covered a surface of
$50 acres and impounded 1000, 600, 900 GAL
Ions.
