NEVADA AND UTAH.

Nevada's population has dwindled
down until the burden of maintaining
a State organization has come to press
hard upon the people, Utah wants
to become State, and the House of
Representatives has passed bill to
admit -er, but there are some OBJ
jections which, it is thought, will be
urged strenuously i'll the Senate, and
which may prevent her admission at
tins me.
Why should not the two problems
be solved at once by annexing Utah
to the State of Nevada The State
thus increased would have popula>
ton great enough to support State
Government with ease. while the
people of Utah would have all the
rights they could acquire by the adj
mission Of the present Territory as a
State, the only difference that they
would be citizens of the State of Ne
vada instead of the State of Utah.
Nevada has made provisions, so
far us she can, for change of this
kind by the passage of an act of the
Legislature providing. in certain con~
tingencies, for an increase in the
territorial limits CT the State. There
seems to be no way for a State to un~
State itself even if it should desire to
do so, and it Is better, anyway, to
build up than to pull down.
We can see no reason why this
plan should not be carried into exc
cution to the decided advantage of
both Nevada and Utah. Salt Lake
City would probably want to be the
capital of the new Nevada, but that
question would be settled by the
votes of the people. The size of the
State would be no objection, for the
tendency Is rather in favor of large
States than small ones. The area of |
Nevada and Utah, combined is l95,-
go square miles, which is somewhat |
larger than California and somewhat |
smaller than Texas.
This plan, ii it be thought well of |
by the people Of Utah and Nevada, |
should be laid before Congress at !
once, for if the bill for the admission
of tab should slip through and be-
come law, it would then be too late
to talk about annexation Nevada |
might annex a territory, but we know
of no way in which she could annex
a sister State. The project is Ger
tainly worth discussion.-S. F.
Chronicle.
Nevada doesn't want to be annex
ed to Utah or vice vrssa. Nevada
may be down now, but is on a
sound financial basis, and is content
to hoe its own row and paddle its
own canoe.
What particular advantage Nevada
can derive by such an alliance is not
plain to the writer. 1t would result
in removing the Capitol and the po-
litical center to Salt Lake and Carson
City would hardly be on the map.
Nevada will take fresh hold be
fore many years, aud don't Propose
to take any part in the forma Jpn of
a mongrel State-half Gems lie and
half Mormon

LIMA, O., May 5.-An attempt was made
last night to wreck the westbound express
on the Lake Erie & Western road. There
was a shipment of money on the train and
that was what the wreckers were after.
At the foot of a grade about three-quarters
of mile west of Paxton, Ill.,. near curve
an obstruction of ties spiked together was
placed across tho track. The robbers lay
in ambush. The express ain was behind
time and the right of way was given TO a
second class passenger train. This train
came against the obstruction and the engine
and two coaches were ditched. No one WAS
injured. but great excitement prevailed.
There was a heavy freight train following
the accommodation closely. A hagman
started back. when he was suddenly con-
denly confronted by highwaymen with re-
volvers and compelled to return TO the
wreck. The brakemen notified the train
Grew, who started in body and were not
molested.
After stopping the freight an alarm was
sent over the wire to both Paxton and
Peoria. Great excltement prevailed at both
places, and . posse was organized for the
purpose of securing the sur, ounding coun-
try in search Of the fugitives, but without
result.

PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES.

No Trouble Expected, but to Allay the
Minister'S Fears.
'WAsH1NoruN May An regard to tho
statement that the Chinese minister was
much alarmed by reports he had received
from the west, indicating the danger of at
tacks upon his countrymen. owing to their
general refusal to register under the Gsnry
law, the Post this morning prints the fol-
lowing:
"Secretary Gresham in an interview last
night said: It is but natural that the
Chinese and their chief representative in
the United States should feel some anxiety.
Upon more than one occasion in the past
deplorable outbreaks against their race
have occurred. The Chinese minister.
however. has no means of seour
ing information that is not accessible
to us. We have received no reports what
ever indicating that there is likely to be
trouble. do not believe there will be.
Mr.. Adee had left the department whom /
reached 1t this afternoon. but il is not likely
thnt he would have communicated with the
governors of the states upon a matter so
serious without informing me of II. As
matter OF course during my absence he acts
as he deems would do, were / present.
In case of an outbreak the department. of
state would not act although it would be
nothing out of order in its making of re-
sue certain line OF action. When disorder
occurs 1t is tho duty of the state to suppress
| it, but If they prove inadequate the general
government may assist. suoh procedure
would devolve upon the department of war.
The state department exerts no armed force
whatever
when told of the statements that the
Chinese minister had communicated with
Assistant Secretary Adee in order to
strengthen the case of his government in
proceedings for indemnity. Gresham q aid
he was sure it was n needless rrecaution
and EXPRESSED strong disbelief in The
probability of any trouble"
The secretary declined to comment ON The
answsr sent him by Gov. Pennoyer. "The
kilograms speak for themselves" he said.
II sent perfectly respectful message 10
Gov. Pennoyer. md received in reply the
dispatch which has been given to the press.
Representations were made to the depart
ment that violence might be done Chinese
subjects when the law went into effect and
the dispatches were sent as a precautionary
measure. l don't believe there ia any pros
pect of trouble. but the dispatches we're
sent nevertheless to allay apprehension"

Worst Is Over.

Immense Damage Followed, but the
Worst Is Over.
LEWISTON, O.. May 4.-The Great Miama
river has its source in Lewiston reservoir,
and begins at the wasteway which broke
yesterday. The first break took away 100
feet of the wasteway and the great rush Of
water carried away the long covered bridge
just below.
Soon another fifty feet of the wasteway
broke, and in short time the entire coun-
try for three miles south was inundated for
a distance OF three miles in width. Col.
Perkins, chief engineer. was soon
on the scene. doing everything that
could be done to repair the DAMAGE. He
estimates that the reservoir loss is $780, 600.
The loss to Logan county. in displaoed
bridges and washed out roads, il 1920 1000.
Farmers along the river lose fences and
crops. The water is still spreading over
the country around Lewiston. AZ soon as
a level is reached the river will rise rapidly.
People between DeRraf and Sidney are
Watching anxiously for the result. Tho
high water mark Of the past will be more
than reached. Low ground will be in great
danger.
The warning has been ample. however.
and no loss OF life is anticipated.
BELLEFoNTA1NE, O., Nav 4.-The breaks
In the banks of the Lewiston reservoir are
under control. Should no mo,e rain fall
and no openings occur. il is hoped the
worst is over and the appalling danger past.
The greatest damage so far reported was
done In this county. Many miles Of low
lands, crops and email buildings were in
undated. The loss to crops and live stock
has been excessive.
PORTSMOUTH. O., May 4.-The flood in

BERLIN, May 4.-The discussion of the
army bill was continued in the reichstag
to-day. Richter, leader of the freisinnias
party, vigorously denounced the measure
and Caprivi uphold it. Rebel, social
demooratio leader, repeated and en- phasized
the arguments Of Richter. After debate the
reichstag adjourned and numerous party
oaucuses were held. Chancellor Caprivi
went away from tho session in good humor.
as the seceders from the freisinniRe party
continued to vote with Won Hueue, and if
he can secure twelve votes from the center
the chancellor counts upon small majority
for the bill. On the other hand the Alsa-
tian deputies arrived in full force, vowinR
they will vote against the bill.
At meeting of the federal council to-
day Chancellor Caprivi announced that the
emperor had signed rescript dissolvinR tho
