SALTWATER, Mimi, May 17.-An-
other devastating storm between II p.

ably amounting to 800, 900. AS man
remarked: sIt was like hitting man

are not half recovered from previous
disasters and deluges, before we are on
our feet. There was no wind but the
Rain Fell in Solid Sheets
most Of the time for four hours. The
usual amount of sand and rocks was
washed down from the hills above. The
Sawyer House has three feet of water
ON the first floor. Olive street, from
Third to Fifth, is q wreck. So are
Myrtle and Chestnut streets. The
Schupp store on lower Main street, .
largo brick building under the bluff is
so badly twisted that it will be torn
down.
Two Buildings Undermined.
At the corner of Fourth and Hickory
streets two buildings were undermined
and both collapsed and went to pieces
and went down into an adjoining ra-
vino. One was used as grocery store
by August Wennerberg and contained
Q thousand dollars worth Of groceries.
Everything was a total loss. The other
was q small structure; both belonged
to Erick wahlquist. His loss Is about
81, 900. Probably thousand loads OF
sand washed over the rear wall OF the
prison and will have to be carted out

Col. Dick blue.

Col. R. W. Blue was recently nom
mated by the republicans of Kansas
for Congressman at large. He is very
popular in his adopted state. The
occurrence has some interest for our
people as Mrs. Blue was a Morgan
town lady and the Colonel was edu-
Gated here.
In speaking of the ticket the New
York Sun refers to the nominee as
follows:
The most protuberant and rising
son of fame in Kansas at present is
the Hon. Dick Blue. Col. Blue is a
candidate for Congressman, but is
not dependent upon election for his
glory. He is framed in the prodigal-
ity of nature, being exactly nine feet
one inch long and five and one sixth
inches wide. His voice is even high
er and thinner than himself. What
makes him statesman is his man
ner of wearing his neck. He wears
it plain without collar or cravat A
collar button made from the drum
stick of a dodo found near Abiline
is his sole ornament Col. Dick Blue
is simple in his apparel but he has
come to stay.

There is something instructive

There is something instructive,
says the New York Times, in com
parison of the platform adopted by
the Pennsylvania Democrats with
that of the Republicans. AS to the
question of the tariff, it was to be
expected that they would differ
widely and in the way that they do
differ. But who would have dared
to predict even four years ago in that
great manufacturing and CONNER
cial State the time would so soon
come when the Democrats would be
conservative and sound on finance
and the Republicans utterly wrong.
This, however, is what has happened
The challenge, thrown out by the
Republicans by the resolution for a
40-do]lar. per capita currency is
cheerfully taken up by the Demo
Gratis. This is long step in ad-
vance over the practice prevailing a
few years since, when, if one party
bid for the innationist vote, the
other party generally tried to bid a
little higher. Apparently the time
has arrived when the shrewdcst pol
iticisns understand that in the long
run honest money will win. The
Democratic candidate for Governor,
Mr.. William NJ, Singerly, is entitled
to much credit for this happy adj
vance in the opinion Of the patty.

Il do not believe thai republic
can live and prosper whose wage

So here. The evil conditions
which he described are in a meas
ure upon us.
Shall we look for further fulfill
ment of the prophecy
Under the highest protective"
tariff known in our history the cry
of the wage-earner goes up in "a pitt
full wail--not for enough to make
life comfortable, but for the bare
necessities of life.
Thousands of unemployed men,
thousands who would like to be
''wage-earners" tramp about from
place to place seeking relief but
there is no upward avenue of hope
before them The conditions are
present with US; the prophecy has
been partly fulfilled; shall we look
for a further fulfillment2

A overwhelming majority of the
people of the United States love law
and order hence the thugs and
thieves who have been rioting and
burning property in Chicago in the
name of labor have not only brought
upon themselves the sore displeas
ure of the nation but have alienated
the sympathy Of the people from
honest labor. No one questions the
right of man to ask for more wages
and to withdraw from his work if
he is refused, but no one comedies
him the right to take forcible pos
session of other peoples property
and pillage and burn and prevent
other men from working. The pres
ent great strike is a failure. The
cowardly mobs quail before the mill.
tary as all mobs do, thus showing
they know their cause is wrong and
when the rioters are shot they re.
ceive no sympathy which is about all
they deserve.

PRENDERGAST TO HANG.
Jury Finds Him Not insane-Exeeution
on July III.


CHICAGO, July 3.-Prendergast, the
assassin of Mayor Carter Harrison,
was declared mot insane" by Jury
in Judge Payne's court this after
noon, and under sentence of the court
must be hanged Friday, July Is.
The jury was out just two hours and
five minutes.
There was much confusion in the
court room among the waiting law
yers and spectators just before the
jury came in, when movement was
noticed among the bailiffs. In few
moments Prendergast was brought
in. With him were six bailiffs, who
stood along the passageway back of
where the prisoner sat to the door
leading To the bridge connecting
with the Jail. Then hush fell upon
the court room. Everyone there
seemed impressed with the solemn
ity of the occasion. Judge Payne
took his place on the bench and the
jurors filed in to their seats 10 the
box.
Gentlemen of the jury" said
Judge Payne, Have you agreed up
on your verdict"
"Yes, your honor" said Foreman
Charles B. Schenck, as he partly
arose from his chair.
Read the verdict" said the court.
The clerk unfolded the paper and
read in distinct voice the doom of
Prendergast in these words:
"We the jury find Patrick Eugene
Prendergast not insane nor lnnatic."
Prendergast's counsel will move
for new trial and if this is not
granted they will appeal to the su.
preme court. Judge Payne's charge
was considered a fair exposition of
the law.
