HON. BREWSTER CAMERON.

Judge Bethune has been confirmed and in the course of time he will talk, his seat on the bench of the First Judi cial District Court. With the appear ance of the new judge new clerk ma, also be looked for. This will relegats to the shades ot private life Hon. Brew ster Cameron, the present incumbent and also his assistant, Mir. Chas. Bow man. The latter gentleman we hope tc see hold On, for 8 while at least. He possesses all the merits of good clerk and will be of valuable assistance to the incoming official.
 But it is with the Hon. Brewster Cameron we propose to deal in this arti cle. When a democrat does we'll we disregard the lines of party nsrrowness and commend him for we'll doing. AS republicans we cannot afford to be less generous to men of our own political faith.
 Brewster Cameron is man of strong individuality and as such made enemies as we'll as friends. The highway to per. sonal unpopularity lies through unde. fined land grants, and, unfortunately fol the local reputation of MT. Cameron, he became involved in that class of litiga- tion. But if, ia common with grant claimants, he reached for the limit, he did not in snywise differ from those who had claimed the grants before him, ss the records of the general land office in Washington bear evidence. We do not say this by way of justification of any. thing he did, but the mere fact that he was land grant claimant was bar tC political preferment and public useful. ness. Whatever he did, and however pure and honorable his intentions, they were weighed in the balance of suspicion and distrust. Individuals who failed to extort money from him worked to create a sentiment against him and the demo crsts, good, honest souls, were not slow in adding fuel to the burning.
 Four years ago, when appointed clerk of the district court, he disposed of bis grant interests and made his residence in Tucson, and it is safe to say that this old town never had better citizen As clerk of the court he was competent painstaking, obliging and loyal to its in terests. Damaging rumors were circu- lated as to his official life when in Washington, but they recoiled on his calumnistors when he compelled them to show cause in open court.
 Politically Mir. Cameron is 8 republi' can, not one of the quiescent kind but active, aggressive, persistent and re. sourceful. He could have been of ines timable value to the territory and we have reason to believe that but for his unfortunate land grant associations there would have been no office within the gift of the people he could not have commanded. Always generous with his means he subscribed literally to his party fund aud paid what he sub scribed.
 With the advent of the new clerk he will remove with his family to Texas, where he has secured the contract for deepening the harbor at Aranas. With his shrewd business qualifications he cannot be other than successful. That he may be is the wish of his many friends here.

RIVER FALLS, Wis, May 16.-A dee- tructive flood is sweeping down Black River valley and slarge number of dams, iron, bridges and other property is be- ing destroyed. A special from Chip pewa Falls reports great destruction of property in the Chippewa River valley. All the railways report washouts and no trains from the north or west will reach Milwaukee until this evening.
 MILWAUKEE, May 16.-The water in sweeping down the Black River valley struck River Falls at six o'clock this morning. The fire alarms were runQ and people hurried from their homes to aid those living in the lower parts of the city. The dam of the Prairie mill checked the rush of water for a few minutes. but finally gave way. Two big bridges were swept from their fasten- lngs and several small bridges followed. Mealy's starch factory was swept down the stream. Another large bridge went next. All the families on the lowlands were rescued. At Hummer, Chippewa valley, several dwellings, large blaming mill, the city pumping house and the fire engine house are gone. The im- mense dam across Black river, near Black River falls was in danger, SO the west wing was blown down in order to save the remainder of the structure. This sent 8 great flood down the valley on Black river from the big dam. The sluice way of the Glenwosd Manufact- uring company was carried away with several hundred thousand feet of logs. Every bridge on Tiffany creek is gone. Many dwellings in the lower part of the village are under water. The Wiscon- sin Central Chicago train is cut of by wsshouts in the woods about a mile and a half from town. A ten foot rise is promised at Eau Claire, where water is now already very high. Before ten o'clock last night advices from the way offices to Milwaukee, reported washouts on all the roads north and west of that city. No trains are arriving today from St. Paul and Minneapolis. The extent of the washouts could not be learned by the officials as the telegraph wires are down or badly crippled.
 CHIPPEWA FALLS, May 16.-Ths storm last night swelled the Chippewa river and it's branches over their banks, food ing an immense area of farming country and washing away railway tracks, bridges, buildings and mills Duncan creek has been turned into a wild river and saw mills and many thousands of logs have been carried away.

THE condition of the crops in Arizona were never better. From every section of the country comes the most favora- ble reports as to hay and grain. The fruit suffered some from frost in the higher localities, but the damaged areas are insignificant in comparison with the whole fruit bearing region from which the crop will be usually heavy.

GOOSE FARMING.

A new industry is being rapidly
developed along the creeks and un-
navigable streams in Southern In
diana, and that is goose raising.
One farmer in Clark county has
$500 head and cleared 81, ZOO from
his feathered flock last year. An
other in Jennings county has over
5000 of these ungainly-looking
fowls, and cleared 81 800, Several
farmers in Jackson county count
their geese by the thousands, and
each one claims to clear 80 per cent
profit per head annually on their
cackling crop,
The farmers along the creeks and
water ways Of adjoining counties
are engaging extensively in this
new enterprise, and a number
whose worn out acres scarcely paid
them for tilling the soil are now
raising geese, and assert that thei
can make three fold more money
from the sale of feathers than can
be produced from the laborous cul-
tivation of their lands. 1t does not
require very big capital to com
mence the business and the rapid
increase of these waddling birds
will soon place a poor man ON the
road to limited wealth with much
less work and worry than can be OBJ
tanned in any mode of farming on
the small farms and poor land that
exist in these localities,
