AUGUSTA, Feb. 20, 1894.


Editors OF the Kennebec Journal:
In an editorial of your paper recently
there was the following:
The city il suffering for want Of decent
sewerage, and, under Republican rule, .
good btginning was made upon . system
that. when completed would have been =
credit to the city. What has the present
city government done in continuati N -.
TINS worthy work! As Z correspondent
points out ia another column it, failure ~
push forward this work 80 necessary to the
health Of our citizens, has been response
Die for NO little sickness, and constitutes I.
constant menace to the public welfare.
And still again editorially:
The JOURNAL long ago urged the great
Importance of good system of sewers in
this city, and, under Republican rule, q
good beginning was made upon 4 well
defined general plan to secure such a
system. 1t 10 the duty of the present city
government to have vigorously pushed
forward the good work thus begun. The
desire to make political capital in other and
less worthy directions should not have been
permitted to push ABIDE this worthy under
taking 80 essential to the good health of our
city.
To correct the wrong impression which
you seem to have, / wish to present yon
and the readers of your paper the exact
figures of what was done in laying sewers
during the year of 1892 3, and during the
present n,uniti pal year 1884. Two years
that compare favorsbly with any of the
preceding years since our sewer system
has been under construction.
In the municipal year of 1892 and 3 there
was laid 1914 feet of sewer pipe with 50
branches and nine catch basins construc ed
at q cost of $52O9.06 while in 1898 an |
there was lai1 1915 feet of sewer pipe with
107 branches and % catch basins construct
ed at a cost of $5332.G6. And We have on
hand at this time PIG feet of unused sewer
pipe, purchased on account of the low price
of pipe under our contract; which cannot
be renewed at the same price another year.
These facts show for themselves, that we
have done more sewer work, (taking into
account the catch basins and the branches)
at comparative less cost during the pres
ent municipal year than in the preceding.
More recently a communication in the
JOURNAL signed "Independent Voter" con-
tanned the following:
Is 10 true as recently stated by the pres
ent chairman of the sewer committee, that
several sewers which have been laid the
past year, notably the one on Cushnoc
He ights, must be taken up and relaid under
a new. survey, in order to be of any eff
ciency?'
The above statement has never been made
by the chairman of the sewer committee.
may have existed in our
sewer system but not sufficient to warrant
such an assertion. r. J. MARTIN,
Chairman Committee on Sewers.

I'll Paso, Tex, oct. l7-Gov. Ahumnda
of Chihuahua arrived in Juarez this
morning to look after the Interests
Of the Mexican government in the
trial OF Victor l.. ochoa, the revold-
Zionist of last winter. ochoa is an
American citizen and cannot under any
circumstances be extradited, but the
Mexican consul and other officials here,
including the governor, are greatly in
terested in securing his conviction as
a ylolator OF neutrality laws They
have expressed themselves as salts
ned that the American government VIII
do what is right In the matter. But
the appearance Of the governor is Civ
ing Ochoa's attorney some anXls;y, and
that gentleman Is very much a.rald
an attempt Will be made to take Ochoa
across the river by strategy. IT Is
certainly established that a reward Of
$500 has been privately offered for
his delivery to the Mexican authori,
ties.
The fact that Ochoa has no, arrived
from Fort Stockton, where he was
arrested Friday night, has added to
the anxiety. He was promised here
Monday morning.

Munice. Ind. oct, l9.-The residents
Of Selma and vicinity. six miles east
OF this city, are greatly excited over
a discovery that has been made by gas
well contractor Samuel Mcpherson OF
this city. A few days since, while Mr..
Mcpherson was drilling well there
for natural gas company. his men
were greatly alarmed when the heavy
drill, which nearly weighed q ton,
took n sudden drop as II in bottom
less pit. II had penetrated the earth
about twelve feet when 1t plunged
downward as far as the rope would
permit The drill was pulled out, low
cred again and the 1000 feet of rope was
not long enough to reach bottom. Two
long pieces of S-inch casing pipe were
next lowered and they were lost. The
driller next cut some small trees and
dropped them into the hole with the
same result. The cavern seems to be
very deep. ana It is believed to be the
same cavern found at Burton, 40 miles
away, where just such another hole
was found recently,
