Communicated.

1t has been stated that the Hon. A
III. Ellis, republican nominee for the
sixth congressional district, secured
the adoption of the following resolu-
ton:
"That we heartily favor and demand liberal and
sufficient appropriation by the general govern
ment for the purpose of thorough investigation
to ascertain the depth and extent Of the under.
flow of water in the westerly portion Of this con.
gressional district, and for the purpose Of making
experiments to ascertain the most practicable
methods of raising and storing such water to be
utilized in irrigation in aid Of agriculture, and we
pledge the earnest support of our nominee to this
end
The fellows out there this season
are of necessity much in favor of
more water, and are expected to take
kindly to Mr.. Ellis proposition and
aid in his election. But we admonish
them not to be too hasty; wait until
you hear from the populists,
AS a suggestion, let us ask, why not
build a mountain on top Of the earth2
If we can only get her up high
enough the SHOWS will certainly locate
and form her crown, and the higher
we get her the greater will be the
snow; let us get the store house on
top. These SHOWS congregate mostly
in winter when the farmer takes least
interest in water, and the farmer
knows that the rays Of the sun in
spring-time will melt the snow-yes,
sir. transform the snow crystals into
sparkling water, Then too, every
body knows that water has a tend
ancy to run down hill-just what the
farmer wants, he has had an up hill
business long time and would APP
preclate q change,
Then just think of a comparison
between a majestic snow-capped
mountain and a hole in the ground.
The mountain business too would be
made much more natural, nature made
mountains and clothed them in eter-
nal snow.
1t might be more expensive in the
way of labor to build the mountain,
but we are here equal to the emerg-
ency, if the appropriation will only
hold out the labor will be in constant
supply, and there need be no anxiety
about dirt so long as Geo, L, Doug
lass is on the republican stump.
We beg our honorable candidate to
reconsider his hole in the ground
theory and adopt the more lofty idea
of the mountain.
