Rehgion and Alliance Politics.

From the New York World.
The great number Of the leaders of
the Peoples party movement in Kansas
are inidels or free-thinkers. Some few
of them are Unitarians, whose belief is
much more liberal than that sanctioned
by their church. "Sockless" jerry
Simpson is a pronounced unbeliever,
and during his campaign for congress
in the Seventh district the whole force
of the church was arrayed against him.
Mrs. Lease is an inidel, and Mrs. Diggs.
who, next 10 Mrs. Lease, was the most
powerful %campaigner in the Peoples
movement, is a very liberal Unitarian.

FL. M. Potter informs the Republi.
can that about five miles northwest of
Hayes Centre, at the Christner farm on
the Blackwood, is a well only nine feet
deep, at which 800 hundred cattle have
been watered without perceptibly lower
ing the water in the well. Now this
well is not many rods from the channel
Of the Blackwood and there is a sradu-
al slope of the ground from the we'll
down to the creek. 1t is believed that
a ditch 500 yards long would run this
water out into the Blackwood in such q
volume that a live stream would be
created along its whole length. Ifany-
one is incredulous we will say that not
more than twelve miles west of this
we'll is a natural spring continually
flowing a large volume of water, and
that the altitude of the spring is greater
than the location of the well. We be-
lieve it would pay the farmers along
down the Biackwood to investigate this
matter, and if they can get a continu-
Gus flow of water into the Blackwood,
Of which we have no doubt, by running
a ditch to or in the vicinity of the well,
it would be greatly to their advantage
TO combine~ together and dig the ditch.
Farmers from Hayes Centre all the
way to Culbertson r~esidingin the viclni-
ty of the Blackwood are interested.
Talk it up. The Republican will give
So toward the expense Of testing the
matter.-Hayes County Republican.

THE UNDERFLOW.
An Important And Accidental
Discovery in RawlinS
County, Kansas.
A Possible Solution of the Great
Question-Irrigation.

Great excitement now exists in this
locality on account Of an experiment
of several parties who were looking fOI
the underfow. 1t appears they com.
Eoenced work near the head of Flana-
gan's canon near the Indian Springs
and ran a tunnel back only about twen-
~ rods when the water broke through
the blue clay or sbale in such volume
as to whisk the workmen and their
teams down into the draw and drowned
one mule and two horses, the men bare
~ escaped with their lives. The vol
ume of water now gushing out and run
ming down the draw is about ten feet
wide and five feet deep. That it is
claimed fully settles the underfow
theory. Mr.. Flanagau has already
been offered 5000 for his ranch. 1t
is believed that this volume of water
will irrigate $4,000 acres. The city
of Atwood is negotiating with Mr..
Flanagan to secure the flow Of water
to irrigate the city aud furnish an
abundant supply of water for Beaver
Lake and keystone roller mills. This
experiment will be fully explained at
the meeting to be held at Oberlin. The
news has been telegraph to the officials
interested in the irrigation scheme and
they are expected to come and fully
examine the discovery. 1t seems that
by the merest accident the whole ques-
ton of irrigation has been solved and
that western Kansas will now have such
q boom as never before known in the
west. We will give in our next issue
the full particulars. We only learned
of the wonderful find as we are going
to press.-Rawlins County (Kansas)

SEAL CASE IN COURT.
Arguments Begun il the Celebrated
Behring Sea Proceeding.

Arguments Begun in the Celebrated
Behring Sea Proceeding.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept. 9.-Ihe
United States supreme court chamber
was crowded this morning with DIS
tinguished members of the bar, present
to hear arguments in the celebrated
case of Thomas Henry Cooper
against the judge Of the United
States court for the District OF
Alaska, better known as the Sayward
Behring Sea sealeries case. Ex-Secre-
tary Bayard and ex-AttorEey-General
Garland, of President Cleveland's cab
met; ex Senator Edmunds, Senator
Mitchell, of Oregon; Representative
Springer, of Illinois, and others were
present. besides Acknowledgement Mil
Ter, Solicitor-Gene1al Taft, Joseph ii.
ChOate, of New York, and others who
will take part in the argument. Justice
Bradley was not present, but the court
will 90 on with the hearing OF the case
whether he be present or not. Justice
Bradley has been in feeble health for
several months past, and though no
specific ailment is known to exist, his
age makes it matter of uncertainty as
to when he will resume his
place on the bench. The court
will therefore hear this and other
cases advanced on the docket
for argument, and Justice Bradley will
take part in the hearing of such of
them as his health will permit; the 9th
ers will 90 on without him. The Sayward
case will come up about o'clock. The
principal contentious Of the United
States government and of counsel NOM
inalIy for the Cooper, but really for
Great Britain, were published at the
time of the filing of the briefs.

BERLIN, Nov. 9.-The Sommerfelds,
father and son, both members of the
firm Of Friedlander & Sommerfeld, the
bankers of this city who failed ON Sat-
urday last, and who, after the close
of the days business. opened
veins in their arms and then
shot themselves in the head with
revolvers, have both succeeded in their
attempts to escape the consequences of
their financial embarrassment. AS pre-
viously announced, both father and son
were conveyed to the hospital, where
Felix, the son, died shortly after his
admission. To-day Sigmund, the father,
died alse.
1t develops that Hirschfeld & Wolff.
whose failure precipitated that of Fried
lander & Sommerield, have been insol-
vent since 1873. For number
of years Wolff has been living
by pawning and selling the securi-
ties of depositors, working in con-
nection with Banker Joseph Leipsiger.
1t is asserted that Wolff, with all the
facts being known to Leipsiger, f1oated
spurious drafts through Leipsiger and
pawned the securities of depositors
amounting in value to S,500,OQ0
marks. Leipsiger finally went to the
wall, ana his failure has tended to the
downfall of Hirschfeld & Wolff
Among the numerous aristocratic cred
itors of the firm are Prince Henry. of
Prussia, who loses 500, 900 marks, Prince
Guenther, of Schlesweig- Holsteln
brother of the Empress of Germany,
100000 marks, and Count Luttichon, q
prominent leader in German society,
100000 marks. Gen. Waldersee and
other members of the aristocracv are
severely hit. Wolff is confined in Mos.

More About the Famine

The governor of the province of
Nijni-Novgorod declares that through
out that province all supplies of
provisions have been exhausted,
that the peasants will soon be
without food, and that L.
100000 pools of grain will be re-
CURED, the greater part of which must
be imported. The difficulty of trans
portation will render the giving of time
1y help almost impossible. The COM
mander of the Trans Caspian army
corps has ordered that all fragments left
by the soldiers be made into biscuits
and sent to the famine districts. Many
notables and members of the foreign
colonies in Moscow are contributing
freely to the famine fund.
The governor of Simbirsk is suppress
ing corn riots with heavy hand. Rioters
are sentenced to receive 500 lashes, and
it is reported that three offenders have
died while such punishment was being
inflicted.
The Moscow Gazette demands the
formation of ministry of agriculture,
which, it sets forth, would prevent con-
flicting policies leading TO famine.

Czar's Dead Soldiers Cannot Be Removed
from Turkish Soil.
ST. PETERSBURG, Nov. 15.-As is we'll
known, the relations between the Rus
sian and Turkish governments are not of
such acharacter as to be worthy of re-
mark for their friendliness, and matters
have not been improved by reply
from the Porte to a request recent
" made by Russia. The latter
country being DESTROYS Of honorlng
its soldiers who were killed during the
late RussoTurish war, and who were
buried in Turkey, recently requested
the Porte to grant permission for
the Russian authorities to disinter the
dead, it being the intention of
Russia to remove them to San Stefano,
near Constantinople, where national
memorial was to be erected IN their
honor. 1t was also the intention of
Russia to erect at San StefanO an
orthodox Greek church in memory
of those who threw down their
lives for their country. But all
these plans have been rendered futile
by the action of the Porte, who
declined to allow Russia to
remove the bodies. 1t is held
in st. Petersburg that this is but
another illustration of the ami
mostly of the Porte toward every
thing Russian, and there is much
irritation in consequence. 1t Is
not believed that the Russian
government will allow the question to
remain as it now stands.
