We take pleasue in publishing the

sent to US from the Bowen Mill ALI
ance:
"Whereas, We the Bowen Mill Alli-
ance, No. s92, believe in the great prin-
ciples as set forth in the constitution Of
our order:
"Whereas, We as an Alliance have
positively refused heretofore to take
part in nominating candidates for
office, or endorsing men or measures,
believing it to be unconstitutional and
unWise
"Whereas, We believe the action of
the Alliance in some counties of our
State in the recent campaign by the
clamor of some who hoped to gain for
themselves big public places by hold
ing out scheme so enticing to the
masses who could not understand their
motives has been the prime cause Of
the defeat of our beloved Hampton
"Whereas, We believe thata majority
of the members of the Alliance if left
to exercise their own preferment by
ballot would have done honor to whom
honor is due;
"Whereas, We believe the action of
the Legislature to be both unwise and
ungrateful; therefore be it

GIANT TREES IN CALIFORNIA.
Forty-four Found that Are Over Eighty
Feet in circumference.
New York SUM-

WASHINGTON, Dec. 26.-Andrew
Cauldwell, the special agent Of the
General Land office, appointed to make
an investigation as to the location, con-
dition, number, &c, of giant (.Stquoia
Yigdntcd) trees in the Stockton and
Eisalia land districts in California, has
made his report to the Commissioner Of
the General Land Office. These trees,
the special agent says, grow in dctach-
ed clusters on the top or sides Of the
Sierra Nevada Mountain range in the
districts named, and always at an ele-
walton Of from 6,00u to 1000 feet. .Ac-
cess 10 them is, as rule, very difficult,
on account of the extreme roughness of
the mountain passes and canons. The
Mariposa grove, in the Stockton land
district, is the largest in that vicinity.
1t contains about 320 trees o. all sizes,
and seems to be properly guarded from
forest fires by the stage company,
which has the monopoly of carrying
tourists through that part to the Gose-
mite valley. The Tuolrimne and
Merced groves contain eighteen and
forty trees respectively. These groves
are in danger ofmountain fires careless
ly set by sheep herders. The Fresno
grove at one time contained between
$50 and 400 trees.
Some years ago the MADEIRA Flume
and Trading Company, the report says,
erected Il sawmill, into whose NAV the
giant sequoias are rapidly disappearing,
and now only about 100 remain. They
stand on the patented land, and are
under the control of the Madea compa-
ny. The largest trees, however, have
been spared, because they cannot be
profitably handled.
In the Visalia district there is one
small and one large grove of giant
trees. The latter is virgin forest, and
contains over / 200 giant seQuoias and
many more small trees. Some five
years ago cooperative colony located
about forty entries in this neighbor
hood, and is constructing road to this
timber belt. The colony, it is asserted,
numbers about GOO members, and has
recently engraftcd the Bellalny idea as
its leading attraction. There is danger,
the special agent believes that these
people if unmolested, will soon destroy
this most wonderful and perfect body
of sequoia gigantea in the world.
In a table giving the number and
size Of the trees in the groves visited,
only those 45 feet in circumference and
more, measured feet from the ground
are classed as giants. Of these, 2,575
were found. Forty-four are over 50
feet in circumference and several are
more than a hundred. One is 106 feet
in circumference, or littls more than
So feet in diameter.
Secretary Noble has requested the
Secretary of War to station company
of cavalry in the Sequoia National
Park and another in the Yosemite Park

1t is said the so-called Bellamy colo
nists, who have in part perfected title
to lands on which these trees stand,
have expressed purpose to hold their
claims in spite of opposition.

WALLACE'S GREAT BRAVERY.
BOW thu Dead Indian Fighter Saved One
Of his Men.
From the New York Herald. |

ST.. PAUL. MINI, December 3d.
The death of Capt. Wallace was re-
ceived at army headquarters with pro-
found regret, for he was well known
here, has hosts of friends and was noted
as one Of the most popular men in the
service. He was gallant officer and
a thorough gentleman. He entered
West Point in 1868, graduating with
honors in 1872, and was only about 40
years of age.
There were ties in later years which
bound him firmly to st. Paul and the
Northwest, for eight years ago he was
married to Carrie NJ. Otis, daughter of
the late George L. Otis. Capt. Wallace
displayed his matchless heroism to
splendid advantage at the battle of the
Little Big Horn.
During the engagement one Of his
men was shot and fell from the saddle.
In piteous accents he besought his COM
mander to kill him, but the officer, for
getting everything save the peril of one
of his men, sprang from his horse at
the risk of his life, and throwing the
wounded man across the pummel of
his saddle, rescued him.

Snow Two Miles Deep.
New York Tribune.7

"Ges, I.have been in a country where
the snow is two miles Deep" said n. B.
Lazard, mining expert from Tomb
stone, Arizona, at the Palmer House
yesterday. Mr.. Lazard was in the East
during the recent snow storm, and was
speaking about what the people in
Pennsylvania called Blizzard.
"They thought the two-foot fall Of
snow was something to talk about"
continued the visitor, "but if they
would visit Alaska about two hun
dred miles up the Yukon river they
would find snow that for miles is so
thick that the banks almost reach the
skies. If it keeps on accumulating as
fast as it has during the last ten years,
scientific men will not be able to say
truthfully the earth is round.
II was in Alaska in the Conson-
flake region, in 1885, and that year the
snowfall was quite heavy. Snow that
falls there remains, for it never melts.
A prospector named Jim Thomas was
with me that trip, and one beautiful
morning he fell from a glacier about
one hundred feet. The fall broke both
of his legs, one of his arms, and crushed
in several ribs, besides injuring him
internally.
He was conscious when 1 reached
him, and he told me that he knew be
was going to die. He begged me to
see that his mother and sister in the
East received ali the property he had
left in Harrisburg. I promised and
have fulfilled the trust.
"Just before he died he asked ME to
pray for him, and for the first time
since / had knelt beside my mother
when little boy, I got down on my
knees and asked God to receive the
soul that was about to depart.
prayed as never have since, and
meant all I said. There was smile on
poor Thomas face when I said amen,
and, with a most peaceful expression
on his countenance, he breathed his
last. l buried him in the snow, and
to-day, if his body could be found, I
know it would look as natural as the
moment he died peaceful expression

Gary as a Presiding Officer.
1Abbeville Medium.

1.-THE Senate has certainly dispatched
the business before it this session in a
most commendable manner. Three
great factors are to be lauded for this
result: First, the facility and intelli-
gence of technique with which Presi-
dent Eugene B. Gary has discharged
his duties; second, the intelligence and
experience of the more prominent
members of the Senate, and third, the
undoubted rapidity and ease with
which Reading Clerk Caughman gets
over the ground. He is a frst-class
man for the place.
"There is no Disgusting the fact either
that Lieutenant Governor Gary has
impressed the Senate favorably. Mr..
Gary is now perfectly at home in the
chair Of the Senate, and has filled his
position impartially on all measures
and in all debates. Personally he is
very highly esteemed, and will be an
all-round success"
The above extract is from the Column
bia letter Of the correspondent of the
News and Courier. His estimate of
Lieutenant Governor Gary does not
vary from that Of others who are quail
flied to speak on such matters.
Senator MeetZe says that in his long
legislative experience he has never seen
business transacted with greater dis
patch and accuracy than during the
recent session OF the Senate. He re-
CARDS Lieutenant Governor Gary as
capital presiding officer.
Senator Buist says he never saw busi-
ness carried on with less friction; that
Lieutenant-Gov. Gary was quick and
correct in his rulings and just and i'm
partial in his decisions. Senator Buist
regards him as the equal Of his distin-
guished predecessors.
All the senators with whom we con-
versed on the subject concur in this
estimate
He was always on time to the min
ute to call the Senate to order and re-
mained to the last at each session.
