FROM THE MONTSERRAT.
Evidence That the Missing Collier
Was Wrecked.

PORT TOWNSEND, WASH, Jan. S.-A
stanchion belonging to the collier Mon tser-
raft was found last Saturday nineteen
miles southwest Of Cape Flattery by the
tug Pioneer and taken to Port Angeles.
where it was identified by several shipping
men as belonging to that Inflated vessel.
The stanchion Is about six feet long, FIVE
inches in diameter. and painted black at
both ends and white in the middle and
bore evidence of having been forcibly
wrenched from the main deck, where it
was used to support the sklds which sup
port the ifeboat. Two or three ship cap
tains, who are familiar with the Montser-
raft. positively identify the timber as
having come from the lost collier.
The strangest part Of the incident is
how the stauchioD came to be found at
this late day, when il is generally con-
ceded the vessel fouDdered about Decem-
Der 9, since which strong therly gales
and currents should have carried 1t up the
Vancouver Island shore.

RICHIE GOING ALONE,
His Lawyers ignorant OF the Charges
Made Against Kicks.


WASHINGTON. Jan. s. - Samuel ].
Richie who, in memorial presented to
Congress yesterday. preferred certain
charges against Judge Kicks has left the
city expecting to return In few days.
Mr.. Ritchie's attorneys, Messrs. Schella-
berger and Wilson and Benjamin S. But
terworth. who have been his chief counsel
in his big suit. disclaim any knowledge of
the charges presented againt Judge Kicks
except what they learned from the news
papers. These gentlemen have been
Ritchie's attorneys almost since the be-
ginning of this famous litigation, but
although they express themselves eau
tiously there is every reason to believe
that in this off-shoot OF the case MIR.
Ri chic is proceeding without their assist
ance. Judge Wilson, it was learned,
refused point blank to conduct this pro-
ceeding before Congress.
The reports of the subcommittee, which
has been investigating the charges against
United States Judge Kicks. was to have
been made to the Judiciary Committee
to-day, but the subject went over until
tomorrow, when a special meeting of
The full committee will be held. At that
time it is probable that the new charges
against Judge Kicks, made by Samuel
Richie of Akron, Ohio. will be taken up.
CLEVELAND. Ohio. Jan. 8.-Judge Ste
venson laughed contemptuously when be
read the charges contained in the memo
rial presented to Congress by Samuel j.
Ritche yesterday. Judge Ricks," he
ssid, "had nothing whatever to do with the
trial of the case in which Ritchie was in
terested. That case was heard aud de-
cided by Judge Lurton Of Tennessee, and
decided against Mr.. Richie at every point
and did not leave him leg to stand on"

rejoicing THE SALARIES.

Councilman Carpenter has intro
duced an ordinance in the city council
bv which he proposes to reduce the
salaries of ali the city officers from
80 to 20 per cert.
there is a point beyond which economy
ceases to be Democratic, and from all
that can be learned it would seem
that this ordinance is going rather 100
far because the salaries now pald are
not in the least eXtraVagant.
There is no reason why pubhc or
6cers should serve the public for
wages that are not in accord with the
labor or responsibility of the posltlon.
1t is said that if the salaries are re
duced plenty of men can be found who
win he glad to accept of the offices
and that is true not only of the city
but of every other position, private or
public, held by any person in the city.
There is not a business man VINO
employs help of any kind today who
could not secure men to NIL every
place he has to offer at half or one
third the wages he is now paying, but
what kind of service would he obtain
and would it be a paying investment!
If The Herald was convinced that
any of the salaries now paid were
more than the duties and the respon-
sfbihties of the place demanded it
would join in advocating a reduction,
but there seems to be no such con-
dition of affairs in relation to any
one of the several offices.
Some months, ago The Herald OPP
posed reduction of the salaries in the
police department on the ground that
the salaries paid were both modest
and moderate and this new ordinance
is opposed for the same reason.

PROVO, Sept 26.-The Democratic
primaries were held in the five wards
of Provo last evening. They were all
well attended and good, representative
people were chosen as delegates to the
county convention to be held at Pay
son next Saturday at 10 O'Clock a. m,
at which there will be nominated four
legislators, two senators and county
superintendent of district schools. The
delegations from the First, Second,
Third and Fourth wards go uninstruc-
ted. The Fifth ward delegation, TWEEN
ty-five strong, go instructed for NJ. M.
Warner as nominee for the upper
house. There will be no opposition to
Mr.. Warner. He will undoubtedly be
nominated and in all probability by &C
clamation There is some talk as to
who will be the other nominees.
A. j. Evans of Lehi is mentioned, as
is also Jed Murcer of Pleasant Grove.
John Irvine of Payson is also men
toned.
Joseph T. McEwan of Provo has
strong backing for the nomination.
A. o. Smoot is favorably mentioned
by his friends.
Sam A. King of Provo has host of
friends in all parts of the county who
will support him for the position of
legislator. Sam is an untiring worker
for the cause of Democracy. He has in
the past been a. great help in holding
Utah county in the right place, and
now his friends think it no more than
right to honor him with a position in
the first state legislature. 1t would
be wise thing to do. The interests of
the people would be we'll guarded and
an laws in which he might have
hand in framing will be conservative
and wholesome. However, the Demo-
Gratis have plenty of good men for these
positions and will put up their best,
no matter from what locality they may
come. If the best man for one posi-
ton is in the north end of the county,
that is the man to nominate. If the
best men are to be found in Provo,
Provo is where the party will select

ARTHABASKA, Que, Sept. 26.-
Seventy men tonight were still lighting
fire in the woods on the Grand Trunk
road in the direction of Doucels Land
ing. on the Three Rivers road.
The fire began on Monday morning,
when the sky was darkened by a dense
column of smoke blown by the strong
est gale felt in years. The fire origin
ated in the bushes and was kindled by
farmers clearing new land.
Monday evening the terror was re-
doubled here when the heavens we're
lit up with the flames and a rain of
cinders and sparks fell. The whole
population engaged in prayer, t&pers
we're burned at the affairs in the par
ish churches and the priests Joined in
the supplication to heaven.
Guards were posted around the town
and the statutes OF saints were placed
around the houses to turn back des-
truction The victims of the calamity
are homeless and begging throughout
the country. The people burned cut
are without money Tonight rain be-
gan falling and the people are over
joyed as they believe the fire can now
be stopped.

This is the order in which the fire

baska, the home of Hon. w. Laurener,
Saint Elizabeth, Saint Albert de War

Landing. The fire is now confined to
spot thirteen miles from this last
place at Saint Angel, and vegetation,
trees. including all the crops, are in
ashes everywhere along the Grand
Trunk line. The villagers are focking
from all parts of Arthabaska and
Three Rivers. They have lost all ex-
