A serious strike, amounting to a
riot has been going on in Brooklyn
New York for the last ten or twelve
days.
It is caused by the refusal of the
workman employed on the Tralley
system of street railroads in that city
to submit to a reduction of wages.
Bloodshed has occurred, lives have
been destroyed, business paralysed,
whilst confusion reigns supreme.
The militia have been called out to
qnell the rioters but the end is not
yet.
1t is a serious matter that will
cause much disturbance in the bust
ness of that city and elsewhere.
1t Is to be hoped that compromises
and concessions may be made salts
factory to both sides and that peace
and tranquility may soon return.

The people of the Teche country
have effectually ruined the water in
Bayou Teehe, by a constant throwing
the refuse from their sugar factories
into that stream. The water has be-
come so foul that stock will not drink
it, whilst (he fish have almost aban-
doned 1t.
The water never was useful Tor
drinking or cooking, but it was other
wise good and emitted no unpleasant
odor, but today it is not satisfactory
to the nasal organs of a sensitive per
son.

Astoria, Or. Jan. "A. 1895.
Editor Astorlan:--
/ have had occasion to test the peo-
ple's sentiments on the water question
by talking with men in different trades
and professions, and knowing the diff
cultles and doubts under which our
honorable water commission labor
thought I would write short commu-
nication in the hope that 1t might do
some good.
We all hope that the railroad will be
built. but should the present. agitation
on the financial question continue It is
possible that our hopes may be deferred
for short time, and In that case the
expense Of building the water works
would be quite tax on our people,
and therefore 1t behooves our commits
sioners to make the cost of this enter
prise as low as possible, by giving the
contract to the lowest bidder; the next
lowest bidders are but from $4,000 to
$1,000 higher than the Portland Com
pany, but $4,000 to $1,000 is quite snug
little sum when you come to pay the
interest on it, and there is another very
important point to take into consldera-
tion--the fact that the lowest bidders
are an Oregon concern, while the next
lowest bidders have no interest In our
beautiful state. Oregon has too long
already taken a back seat and let Cali
fornia and Washington walk away with
the cake; money put In circulation with
in our own state is bound to benefit us
all. We're the California firm to secure
the contract, the pipes and other ma
terial would be manufactured in Cali
fornia, shipped up here already to be
put together, while the Oregon gentle
men would manufacture everything al
home. The Portland firm is known as
good, responsible firm. One Of them,
Mr.. Gould, Of Gould G. GLADDEN., built
the Portland City Hall, costing over
$5OO0OO and Messrs Hamshaw and
Benin have done considerable work In
Portland and oregon City to the sat
isfaction of all. Mr.. Gould is able to
furnish 100000 bonds, and as the com
pany have offered to furnish bonds in
the amount of double the contract, l
can see no reason why the commission
should hesitate.
OF course rival concerns will spring
all sorts Of campaign yarns, but the
Oregon firm are a home people, they
are the lowest bidders, and they can
furnish the bonds, so gentlemen, start
the ball rolling and give our work
ingmen chance to get to work.
I.have every confidence in our COM
mission and feel satisfied that they will
not waste the peoples money.
Yours for Success,
A MERCHANT.
