The Northwestern Floods.

dispatch from Seattle, Washington, on
Monday night, says News has Just reached
this city from Skykomish, on the Great North
ern Railway, that the Skykomish river is ris-
ing. The river has jumped its banks in many
places and invaded the homes of ranchers.
One instance is related where a woman
waded half a mile with a baby in her arms
through three feet of water to escape the ris-
ing food. Houses have been swept away and
big trees, fences and other movable objects
have been carried off.
A man named Baker came sailing down
the Skykomish yesterday on tree, while
near him cronched big black bear. Near
the town of Skykomish Mrs. Sanders saw a
bear on floating tree, shot it dead and Sc
cured the body.
THE LATEST.
special despatch from Mount Vernon
concerning the damage by floods to the town
of Hamilton, in Okagil county, says The
town is complete wreck. The big brick
building owned by Barker and Fountaine is a
heap of ruins, and the goods are buried under
the fallen walls. The streets are washed out,
sidewalks gone and the town is filled with
trees, stumps and rubbish. Water is in every
house in the lower part of town. and some of
the people were kept prisoners in the second
story Of their residences until Sunday noon,
Wnen lney were taken on IN DoalS. Tue
Seattle and Northern Railway tracks between
Woolley and Hamilton have been almost en-
tirely destroyed.
''1'his has been the most destructive storm
to all property, from the Rocky Mountains
west to the coast, that has occurred since
1874, said the Great Northern VicePresi-
dent. ''As to the bridge washouts, both rail
road and public, they have been occasioned
more by reason of persons throwing trees,
logs and wood in the river than high water. !"

Unfortunate Comparison.

A number of Northern newspapers are
dwelling largely upon the fact that the
greatest per cent. of illiteracy exists in the
states that were carried for Bryan The
New York SIM published Il table showing
this fact.
If the colored vote were excluded, there
would be not much difference in the per
eentase of illiteracy between the Bryan
and Mckinley states.
Particular stress is laid upon the illit-
eracy in the '0ld Secession Confederacy, :
as the SIN calls the South, when the
Ishmaelite who edits the SIN knows that
fully four ffths of the Mckinley ballots
cast in the South were voted by Negroes,
fully fifty per cent. of whom could not
read the tickets they voted. A part Of
the other fifth were cast by white men far
below the average white voter of the
South. There are a million and half of
Negro voters in the South, and every one
of them, nearly, voted for Mckinley and
Sound Money They would have voted
the Republican ticket had it stood for
Mckinley and Bimetallism,' for SAT
geld and Anarcy' or for Dana and
SANDER
The Northern press put their foot in it
when they instituted comparison of in
telligence between the supporters of Me-
Kinley and Bryan, They jumped at
hasty conclusion entirely overlooking the
large illiterate Negro vote, amounting to
over two millions. The black vote elimited
Maryland was for Bryan by over twenty
thousand majority. In the entire country
Bryan had fully million majority of the
white vote, and the Bryan supporters were
just as intelligent, just as honest and just
as patriotic as those who voted for Nc
Kinley.

Query.

Have those thirty millions of dollars
arrived in Baltimore for investment which
Alexander Brown, the banker, and Elk
Mayor Davidson, the trust company pres
ident, told of in published interviews, that
were to come to Baltimore in the event OF
McKinley's election?
All the balance of the country is boom
ing in the newspapers if not in reality, and
why has not Baltimore taken on boom
Where are those thirty millions?
Brown and Davidson could certainly not
have been talking to influence votes for
Mckinley. Certainly not.
We would ask again in the interests OF
the expectant thousands of Maryland s
chief town, where are those thirty mil
lions

Clay, Blaine and Cleveland, up to 1896,
have been the only defeated candidates for
the Presidency that still held much popu-
lar esteem and support. A defeated man
usually drops from public notice and his
name arouses no enthusiasm. Mr.. Bryan,
in popular esteem, seems to have stronger
hold than either Clay, Blaine or Cleveland.
Wherever he goes great crowds gather,
and on Saturday while travelling in Mis-
souri, he was forced to make short speech
wherever the train stopped. At theatre
in Springfield at night, between the I'd
and Sd acts, he was called upon and made
brief speech

Live Stock Exports.

The Secretary Of Agriculture in his
fourth annual report treats of a number Of
subjects, but the most important statement
is that in the first six months of this year
of the live cattle arriving in England the
United States furnished seventy-fve per
cent, and also forty-fve per cent. of the
sheep. He says there Is a demand for
American horses in England, and in the
first nine months of this year more horses
were exported to England than in any
previous entire year. The number of
cattle exported to England was BIT, G39
and of sheep 422, COB.

Ask for a Recount.

From the recount of the ballots cast in
the first precinct of the Tenth Ward of Bal
timore, it is possible and very probable
that the returns in every Ward are in
correct, and every defeated Democratic
candidate for the City Council should file
a notice of contest and ask for a recount.
According to the returns, as indicated by
the recount of the first precinct of the
Tenth Ward, there must have been ten or
more thousand fraudulent votes returned
in Baltimore. If there is fraud, expose it.
The SIM and News will never aid in I'M
earthing fraud if their side is the benetici-
ary of the fraud.

A New swindling Game.

PITTsBuRG, Pa, Nov. 22.-Detectives here
have arrested man whom they consider one
of the smoothest buuco men in the country
He is known to the police by the first name
of Jacco. The man has operated under many
aliases and has served terms in several peni
tentiaries.
The specific charge on which he was arrest.
ed here is the successful working of new
swindling game on prominent jeweler Of
Indianapolis. He went to the jeweler and
bought $500 diamond ring, paying for il
with check signed civilian Thompson. y
The swindler left the ring to have his initials
engraved on it, saying he would return in an
hour or so. Before his return the firm in
dorsed the check and sent it to the bank to be
cashed. 1t was promptly returned marked
.'no funds. -
Jacco was informed of this when he called
for the ring. He asked to see the check and
told the jeweler that he must have been out
of his head when he wrote such check for
he never had any funds in that bank. He
put the check in his pocket and paid 5000 in
cash for the ring. Then he went to one of
the large dry goods houses where he was
slightly acquainted, presented the check with
the jewelers. Endorsement and secured the
amount on the plea that the bank was closed
and he was in hurry to catch train.

The track hands on the Pennsylvania Rail
road made startling discovery near North
Bend, Pa, Sunday morning. On opening an
abandoned tool house that stands along the
railroad in the mountains they found the
emaeiated form of an unknown old man lying
on the floor. He was still alive, but uncon-
scious. His face and limbs had shrunken TO
a mere skeleton, and he was sickening object
to behold. One of his gum boots lay sear his
head, and marks on the top of the boot showed
where the man had tried to bite piece out
of the soft fabric. 1t is thought that the old
man was prisoner in the tool house for FIVE
days. A week ago the fellow was seen by
the same track hands roasting potatoes over
a FIRE about q mile from that point. The gem
sral belief is that the man was locked in the
tool house by other tramps, aud being unable
to escape or make anybody hear him, slowly
starved. He was removed to the Thompson
House, where physicians are endeayoring to
restore him TO consciousness. It is not
thought possible that he can recover.
