The Escondido Ditch.

In our Fridays issue we alluded to the
gigantic engineering enterprise that is
now engaging our townsman, Mr.. Henry
w. Putnam. The following interesting
description is from the New Years issue
of the San Diego Union:
The Escondido irrigation district was
organized about January 1st, 1890, and
its present position as probably the most
successful in the State was won after
several hard fought battles with adverse
circumstances. Bonds had been voted
in April, 1890, for S450,0OO, and after a
years fighting in the courts over the
legality of the issue, the supreme court
confirmed the acts of the district, and
the bonds were declared valid. The
present board cut down the issue to
S250,OO0, cancelling the balance, and
adopted the system of irrigation now be-
ing carried into actual operation.
After figuring on purchases of water
by the inch from irrigation companies,
and on a system based on the catchmeut
method, the district formulated the
present system, taking the supply from
the headwaters of the San Luis Rey river
and conveying it to storage and dis.

tunnel, as required by the nature of the
territory.
The board opened bids for the con-
struction of the system, and awarded
the contract on September 18th, 1893, to
|. E. Doty of David City, Nebraska. Mr..
Doty took the irrigation districts bonds
at OF cents, giving the district 1927, 800
with which to build its system.
The total length of the system is twen-
ty-two miles, and the average fall is 2S
feet per mile. Beginning at the intake,
at the base of Smith Mountain, the CEN
tire of one of the best watered regions in
San Diego country, the altitude is 1,76O
feet. The river falls rapidly at this
point, descending 800 feet in two and
one-half miles. The altitude at the base
of the dam, six miles from the district
on an airline, is 1880 feet, while the
highest point in the district is only $50
feet. Of the twenty-five miles of con-
duit from the river to the district, eight
cen are of solid ditch cut out of the hills,
and three of tlume. There are two tun-

A Southern Estimate of Congress
man Powers,

Always excepting Senator Hoar'S ora
ton on Webster, Powers tribute to Stark
was decidedly the best speech of the day.
1t was eloquent scholarly, Chaste, dig
nified and in the hest taste. The only
fault that could be found with it was
brevity, a rare and sinless fault in
speech in Congress; but fault that at
tends all Judge Powers speeches. For
many years Judge Powers was on the
Supreme bench of Vermont, and it is not
too much to say that he is the one Re-
publican in the House who is match
for old Dave Cumbersome at the bar.
l strongly suspect that he is of Demo-
cratic antecedents and strayed into the
Republican party when African slavery
in the Territories was the only political
issue. He is one of the very few men in
public life who have attained a distin-
guished place in the national councils
without uttering single word that was
calculated to ruffle the feelings of po-
litical opponent. His speech in support
VI luo ClDloJ CldIli, OOuJueIu war
claim, gave him the heart of every South
ern congressman, as all his utterances
had commanded their respect.
The workman is known by his chips,
and Judge Powers never addresses the
House that his audience does not feel it
is Judge who is talking, and learned
and just judge at that. He loves to talk
about the profession, and no man if full
Ter of anecdotes of the New England bar
than he. He is typical of the State that
gave Thad. Stevens to Pennsylvania,
Stephen A. Doughlas to Illinois and Matt
Carpenter to Wisconsin. He can talk
for hours about such men as jeremiah
Mason, Ichabod Bartlett, Samuel Dexton,
Justice Storey and other great lights of
the bar, and his conversation is always
both amusing and instructing.
He is man of massive frame and mas
sive head-one of the handsomest men in
Congress. 1t is great pity that there
are not more statesmen like him-Dem-
ocrats and Republicans. He is just such
man as every good boy imagines his
father to be.-Louisville Courier.J Jour-
nal.

The simplicity of dress, etc., in the
new world, to which some people refer
when the subject of present day costumes
and manners are under discussion, has
received "set back" at the Club"
Some one has unearthed memorandum
made by George Washington in his early
manhood, for the benefit of his tailor.
1t says: Memorandum-To have my
coat made by the following Directions,
to be made FrOck with Lapel Breast.
The Lapel to contain on each side six
Button HOles and be about or 6 inches
wide all the way equal, and to turn as
the Breast on the Coat does, to have it
made very long Wasted and in Length to
come down to or below the bent of the
knee, the Waist from the Armpit to the
Fold to be exactly as long or Longer than
from thence to the Bottom, not to have
more than one fold in the Skirt and the
top to be made just to turn in and three
Button Holes, the Lapel at the top to
turn as the Cape of the Coat and Button
to come parallel with the Button Holes
and the last Button Hole on the Breast
to be right opposite the Button on the
Hip.

Two events of the past week interest a
great many people. The first one is the
defalcation of State Treasurer Taylor of
South Dakota, whereby the State is out
nearly half million dollars, secured,
however by bondsmen. A special tax is
levied and efforts are being made to find
the absconding Democratic official. He
fled when it became necessary to turn
over the funds to his Republican sue
cessor. The second is the great Brooklyn
strike of the electric railroad men 5000
in number. 1t is said that this labor
trouble arises from the efforts of the
Companies to make 199 miles of track pay
lawful interest and dividends on $50, ,OOO,-
600 bonds and stocks. The men were
getting an average of $3.50 per day, but
it was proposee to reduce them to trip
rates, and the men say they would only
make wages of about so cents. From
this they rebel and tie up the system. If
the reputed facts are true the men have
the best of the argument

tin plate manufacture during the past
three years is one of the greatest indus
trial achievements ever recorded. In
1892, the first year of the new Mckinley
duties, 6,S23 net tons of tin plate, weigh
ing 6S pounds and less per 100 square
feet, were coated in the United States.
In 1893, the total had increased to 40, 900
tons. In 1894, the American mills at
tanned the enormous aggregate of 69,Gl2
tons, By far the larger portion of the
steel plates, the black plates, so-called,
to which the tin coating is applied, is
now of American production. In 1929
we imported 2S,11 tons of foreign
plates, and manufactured in thi country
81, 100 tons. But in 1893 "a, while we i'm
ported 26,627 tons, we manufactured in
our own mills 42,0S5 tons, or nearly
twice as much as we procured from for
eign sources. AS is well stated by an eX-
change: "The truth is that on this tin
plate issue President Cleveland and the
tariff reformers' have met terrific
Waterloo. In this important, practical
test of two theories of political economy
the free traders have suffered an utter
rout, stupendous humiliation. They
declared most emphatically when the
Mckinley act was passed that tin plate
never could be manufactured in CONNER
cial quantities in this country. They ex-
pressed willingness to rest their whole
case on it. They contemptuously scoff-
ed at the idea of creating a new Industry
by legislation, and for long time they
refused to accept the official statistics of
the industry's swift advancement, even
when those statistics came from one of
Secretary Carlisle's own subordinates.
Only about year ago the President of
the United States assured some Welsh
visitors that there was no tin plate fac
tories IN the United States; that he had
not been able to find one of them; that
all this talk about their existence was a
fraud and delusion. And now some of
these same Welshmen, who took Mr..
Cleveland at his word, are discovering to
their sorrow that there are tin plate n ills
in America, and that they came so near
to meeting the entire American demand
that there is less and less room for the
Welsh article in the American market"

nels, one at the point of diversion, $50
feet in length through solid granite, and
another connecting the ditch with the
reservoir, $50 feet in length, all solid
rock. For short distance at one point
a natural waterway is utilized.
Actual work on the ditch was COM
menced on June 14th last, and has con-
tinued without even half days inter-
ruption to the present time, with the re-
suit that Contractor Doty is four months
ahead of his contract time, and will be
able to give the farmers water for the
present season-a saving of thousands of
dollars to the community at large. By
the middle of February plenty of water
will be available at the dam, which will
then have reached the 6O-foot contour.
The size of the ditch is five feet in
width at the bottom, with sloping sides,
carrying 1000 inches of water. Five
hundred inches of water perpetually
flows past the mouth of the tunnel at the
point of diversion. The dam will be
eighty feet high, and the reservoir is
caDable of impounding all the water re-
qnired for the present needs of the dis
trict, though as the population increases
it will no doubt be necessary to acquire
an additional reservoir site.
The dam alone is estimated to cost
1884, 1856, at height OF eighty feet. 1t
can be raised to a somewhat higher ele-
walton if occasion requires, though to get
a large increase of supply, the plan of
building dam further up the canyon
will have to be carried out. This will
not be necessary for number of years
in any event. Work on the dam was
started on July 4th last, and will be fin
ished by the middle of April or May 1st.
Water will be impounded and can be fur
nished to the district even as early as
next month.

Suffering in Nebraska.

Our readers have been aware, through
our columns, of the destituton existing
in Nebraska, through failure of the
crops, and several boxes of clothing, ETC.,
have been sent from this part of the
State to Bishop Graves, formerly of Ben
nington. We are permitted to publish
extracts from private letter, written to
friends here, from Mrs. Sidney Hollister,
dated Litchfeld, Nebraska, January 9th,
1895, that will be of interest to many of
our people. She says:
Prof. Hicks says there are planetary
conditions that cause the drouth, and
they will continue still another year. If
our winter thus far is forecast of the
future, l firmly believe he is correct-lt
is so dry, warm and sunshiny. If we do
not have rain or snow before spring, it
will be useless to attempt to raise crop.
l will send you papers so you may judge
of the extent of the need of ram. We
are comfortable and provided for, but
thousands have left the State and thou
sands yet to be provided for. 1t is an
immense problem to be solved. What is
said in the papers is all true, every word,
and sad truth too. Iowa, Illinois, In
diana, Michigan and Wlsconsin-all suf-
fered more or less with dry weather, but
here we never had bushel of corn or
grain, and no hay even, and no gardens,
tpfo fnil,,.o &c oil &c
If you hear of any one who doubts, tell
them it is all true. Much is being sent
but everything will be needed to keep
people from suffering and starvation.
Prof. Hicks says the drouth is moving
east, and l know that some of the coun-
ties west, where there has been a
drouth, had good crops this year. Our
farmers have taken stock to winter
there. / would like to live in a
country where crop failures were less
frequent. 1t is hard for the Eat as well
as the West. Many have invested their
capital, depending on the interest for
their support; but when there are no
crops farmers cannot make their pay
ments, nor sell their land or stock for
anything near its value. So the credit
ors must either foreclose on their homes
or carry them along until better times.
Should they take the land they cannot
sell it, and are no better off than to let
the owners retain it, and do the best
they can in paying when seasons are
more favorable. Father wishes me to
write that Sidney cultivated about two
hundred acres of land and never had a
bushel of grain-the common expert
ence of all around here.
People are very courageous and hope
full. / know you would like our people.
They are enterprising, progressive, wide
awake, and will do all they can to help
themselves, but there is not much IN
their power, that is, for those who have
no resources independent of what they
can get in the country. l send
you Inter Ocean and Bee. Our
county adjoins Custer, but from what 1
can learn, there is more destitution
there than here. There have been more
than 200 letters written from our town
to various churches, calling for help fer
the needy; and many responses, with
promises of help.

White House Electricity.

The people of Oklahoma point with
pride to curiosity of nature that is
dwelling in their midst. 1t is an cleo
trical boy whose body shocks any one
who touches it. Perhaps here is clue,
says the New York Press. to certain mys-
terious actions at the White House and
the explanation of why the President is
constantly guarded by detectives. Mr.
Cleveland may be an electrical phenom-
enon. Contact with him may be danger
Gus and even deadly. On this suppo-
sitiOn many things of mystery would be-
come clear. Mr.. Cleveland knows of
this fatal power and its baneful effect up
on humanity; he may realize that any
one coming in contact with him would
receive a shock that might be deadly,
and as friend to humanity feels it his
duty to keep the public at distance. On
this theory the detectives, the policemen,
the watchmen and the sentry boxes are
all necessary. Instead of being selfish
and timid, Mr.. Cleveland is philanthropy
ic and brave. Much as he would like to
mingle with the people and hear their
flattering compliments and receive their
thanks for the era of unparalleled
prosperity that he has brought upon the
land, he feels that it is a duty to hold
aloor from them out of regard for their
evil being.
The record of the past adds arguments
to this supposition. The men who have
come in contact with Grover Cleveland
have never recovered from the shock.
The effect is almost instantaneous, and
the symptoms are loss of independence,
patriotism and popularity. Walter Q.
Gresham of Illinois came into contact
with Mr.. Cleveland, and he will never re-
cover. Before this sad experience he
was regarded as a man of brains and
courage. Since that contact Mr.. Gresh-
am is dlscredited the whole country over.
James II. Blount came in contact with
the Cleveland electricity, lost good name
and future prospects, and is now hiding
from public view among the rice swamps
of his Georgia plantation. William L.
Wilson INDUCED in the fatal touch, and
district and country alike rose up to re-
pudiate him. Josiah Quincy fell a vic
tim to the power of the electrical poll,
tician, and is now cast out and trodden
under foot of his party men. Chas. F.
Crisp tried the experiment, and the peo-
Pile of the country have driven him out
of the Speakers chair. John G. Carlisle
took Mr.. Cleveland by the hand, and ev-
cry fragment of the Kentuckian's former
prestige has vanished forever.
Mr.. Cleveland seems as dangerous as a
live wire. He touched the prosperity of
the country, and it nearly perished. He
laid his electrical finger upon the finances
of the government and stability and con-
fdence vanished. He took hold of our
diplomatic policy, and its patriotism was
killed. His hold upon the American
flag turns the Stars and Stripes into the
lion and the crown of England.

Our readers recall the Democratic de-
malls that tin plate was made in the
the United States, during the campaign
of 1892. The Administration carried its
venom to the extent that our manufac-
turers, during 1884, were not allowed
the amount made, but were obliged to
deduct all tin dipped or coated on foreign
plates. 1t now transpires that the De-
mocracy must own up. The progress of
