sponded to the call. 1t was found
that the drying house of the Reevs
Furniture Factory was on fire. The
factory is beyond the fire limits, but
the boys handled buckets so skillfully
as to prevent spread of the fire, so
that it did not communicate with the
main building or factory proper
a reporter of the DEMOCRAT visit
ed the factory, and ascertained that
the loss is about $1,000, with insurance
of 5000 on the dry house. Loss will
really amount to much more than the
sum named, on account of the delay it
engenders, The company expected to
begin running to-day, and had in an
order for a car load of furniture, to be
shipped by September LIST. 1t is sup
posed fire was caused from over-firing,
as there was two layers of brick be-
tween the fire and the lumber burned
in drying house.

Special to The Arkansas Gazette.
NASHVILLE, Ark, August TO-
The following letter has been received
by John T. billiard, of Mineral Springs
who is one of the best Democrat in
Howard County:
LITTLE Rock, Ark, August 2, 1892.
Having seen that you were the de-
legate Of your party to the Omaha
Convention didn't know of gentle
man in your county to whom could
more safely write this confidential
note. The fight is on now in earnest
and if your Peoples party leaders
will carry out your part of the pro-
gramme, the grand old Repub-
lican party will be successful in this
campaign and we will have Whipple
for the next governor of Arkansas.
Don't organize the negroes into Peo-
pies party clubs, as we learn that some
of the members Of your party have
been endeavoring to do, but work all
the Democrats that you can into your
party. Leave the negroes to vote the
Republican ticket, for State officers, OF
course We don't care to NEEDLE
with your county affairs, and hope
YOU may be successful in electing a
Representative, for your man will CO.
operate with ours in the Legislature.
We think your man, Bush, will suit us
for Congress. We will quite likely not
run a Republican for Congress if your
people can carry out their part of the
contract to help us elect our State
ticket. You see we must break
the Solid South at all hazards. | have
been getting the boys organized in
Georgia, but have more hopes of car
rying Arkansas than any other
Southern State. ! leave here tonight
for Colorado, but will be in California
at work when your State election
comes off. Keep the boys in the mid
die of the road until the 9Th of Sep
TENDER, and we will fulfill all our
pledges to your leaders. Sincerely
yours, d. L. WEMPFER.
Who Wempfer is, or whether this
letter is authorized, the people here do
not know. lie seems from the letter
to be a kind ofNational organizer and
Jealous Republican worker.

Sheriff McLendon took Col. III. Clay
King from the Jail late yesterday
evening and out of the city on the
Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad en-
route to Nashville. The Sheriff is
one-legged and unaccompanicd.
Kings son went with the party and
there were some fears Of an attempted
escape. Also fears were entertained
that friends of Poston would inter-
cept and mob King.
The whole country was aroused
over the Communication of Kings SEN
tence and kilograms protesting
against it poured into Memphis from
many portions of Mississippi, Tennes-
see and Arkansas.

II. Clay King, of Memphis, who shot
down in cold blood David II. Poston,
some time since, and who was con-
victed of murder in the first degree
and sentenced to be hung on the 18th
inst, has been saved from the gal.ows,
Gov. Buchanan having committed the
sentence to life imprisonment in the
penitentiary.
Yesterdays Memphis papers were
very bitter in denouncing the Gov
ernor's action. Their utterances. to-
gether with the already embittered
public feeling against King, caused
much excitement, and mass meeting
was arranged for last night, at which
Gov. Buchanan was TO have been
hung i'll etiigy. 1t was given out that
the jail would be attacked and the no.
torious prisoner lynched
JUDGE DUB0SE REMOVES KING.
In view of the threats current
against Kings life, and the expected
mob law, Judge j. j. DuBose issued
an order as follows:
at appeared to the court that there
is now undue excitement in the public
mind because Of the Communication of
the sentence of II. C. King, who was
by the Supreme Court sentenced to
hang on the 18th day of August, 1892,
and it further appearing that because
of threatening mob violence, 1t is not
safe to longer keep said King in the
county jail Of Shelby County, it is
therefore ordered by the court that
the Sheriff of Shelby County, without
delay, take said King and deliver
him to the keeper of the Penitentiary
at Nashville, in pursuance of the order
as made by the Governor, committing
his sentence to life Imprisonment in
the Penitentiary of the State.

MILES OF WATER DITCHEs.

A Big Syndicate Prepares to Cultivate
Many Acres of Florida Land.
CINCINNATI, O., Aug 29.-Beyond all
question the irrigation scheme being pushed
in Florida by number of capitalists of
this city, Philadelphia and New York is to
be the greatest North America has ever
seen. 1t is exclusively private enterprise
conducted by stock company that has no
bonds to float, no stock to sell, no mort
cages to negotiate. At present it is only
big land syndicate, but it may develop into
the giant sugar monopoly of the world. The
company has had an existence for months,
and through its agents has secured at few
cents an immense tract of land on the St.
John and Indian rivers, SO miles long and
from three to six miles wide.
1t has three feet of rich muck, and 1t Is
estimated will be worth 500 an acre when
drained. The surveyors have been at work
some time preparing plans, it being the In
tention to drain the land in sections so that
part of it may be available next spring.
The entire cost ofthe improvement is esti-
mated at "a, 900, 900 and two years the time
necessary to complete the entire work, As
fast as prepared the land will be planted in
sugar cane. 1t is believed that on this
swamp enough sugar can be raised to supply
the whole of North America. Truck farm
ing will be INDUCED in to some extent, and
on the higher knolls small fruits. s. A.
Jones, of Tampa, Fla, one of the agents
of the syndicate, is in the city, and says the
improvement will have almost revolutions
ary effect on Florida, and will commercially,
in the line of sugars, affect the whole world.

Project to supp'y Tex ms and Mexicans
With Plenty of Water.
Ell PAso, Tex, Aug. pa company
has been Incorporated under the laws OF
New Mexico for the purpose of putting in

Grande to irrigate both in Mexico and the
United States VIM. Hamilton, of New
York, Is at the head of the project, and the
company 10 incorporated for a capital Of
SO, 900, 00O The dam will be built about
five miles above Ell Paso in Mountain Gate
way. 1t will be $50 feet long, of solid
masonry from cliff to cliff, resting on a
solid limestone foundation, and will be 20
feet high.
Colonel Adson Mills, of the United
States Corps Of Engineers, estimates the
cost of the dam at $500, 900 There will be
two double gates on the Texas side OF the
canyon, and two of precisely the same size
and pattern on the Mexican side. From
these gates two canals will be cut through
the rock, following the bluff on the Texas
and Mexican sides, capable of carrying
volume of water 20 feet wide and 10 feet
deep Colonel Mills estimated the full
cost of the completed system, including the
dam, canals, bitches and lateral head gates,
drops, etc, at 50, 800, 900. The construction
OF this dam will create an inland lake Is
miles long and about miles wide, with an
average depth of about % feet. Storage
reservoirs will be constructed on both sides
of the canyon above also, so as to replenish
the lake from time to time and keep it up
to high water mark.

CYCLE MAKERS COMBINE.

The Manufacturers West OF tho Alleehenies
Pool Their Issues-They viii Make a
Uniform Scale of Prices but Win Do No
Slashing.
INDIANAPOLIS, IND, Aug. 29-The
wheel manufacturers west of the Allegheny
Mountains organized the Western Wheel
Association to-day. They met at the Bates
House, as a continuation of the Cincinnati
meeting, and rame here especially to in
duce the Standard Wheel Company to join
the association. President Fairbanks, of
that company, was not satisfied with the
terms offered at Cincinnati, but to-day his
requests were for the most part met.
Officers were elected as follows:
Dwight Smith, of Jackson, Mich,
President; jaw II. Keith. of Terre
Haute, Secretary. The Treasurer will be
appointed by the President The organiza-
tion as it stands controls 95 per cent of the
capacity of factories west of the
Alleghenies. The Standard Company
itself controls go per cent of the
output of wheels, and it was for
this reason its cooperation was essential
Mr.. Fairbanks stated tonight that it was
not the intention of the association to ac-
quire ownership of all plants and destroy
competition, but, on the contrary, to pro-
mote competition, both among manufactur-
ers and the trade, and at the same
time protect themselves He further
stated that their purpose was not to
raise prices to any great extent, but to pre-
vent slashing and cutting and preserve har-
mony. The association will control prices.
The meeting adjourned early in the after
noon, and the members will convene again
in Toledo, O., in about three weeks. At
this meeting a scale of prices will be
adopted
