POWERS ON NAMES RESOURCES.
Governor Says It Is Mistake to Go West
Young Men should Stay at Home.

Governor Says It Is Mistake to Go West
Young Men should Stay at Home.
Augusta Me-, Jan. S.-Governor Pow
ers' inaugural address opened with
felicitation upon improved industrial
and financial prospects. He then says:
"Our young men have very generally
ceased to emigrate to the far west as
soon as they are old enough to COM
mence life for themselves. They are
beginning to realize the important
truth that at home are to be found
more certain inducements and advant-
ages, with mucn less of hardship, suf-
ferlng and privation. Our people have
learned in the stern school of expert
ence to their sorrow and cost that
! large part of the many millions OF
| money that have been sent westward
| to enrich and build up that section, and
to invest in all sorts of wild and vision
| airy schemes, will never be returned
to them again; and they will no longer
permit themselves to be deluded and
deceived by specious pretenses and false
promises rarely ever to be realized. we
may therefore reasonably hope that
their savings hereafter will be largely
employed in more fully developing the
resources of our own state"

HEAVY DAMAGE BY FLOOD.
Sad Havoc TO Live Stock and Grain Along
the Rivers.

st. Louis, Jan. 8.-Reports continue
to come in of heavy losses along the
Gasconde river and smaller streams
tributary 10 the river. On account OF
the bridge between Richland and
Waynesville being washed away. no re-
port as to the extent of the damage
done on the east side of the river can
be obtained. Ferry boats are resum-
ing their trips and the water is falling
at rapid rate. 1t is known here that
stock has been drowned and the dam
age to farms can hardly be caculated
at this hour. Hundreds of head or
stock from Texas county and points
south shich were en- route to this city
to be shipped have been delayed on ac-
count of the high water for several
days, which will entail a heavy loss on
shippers. Dickens corn mill, five miles
east of this city, was completely swept
away.
Reports continue to arrive of sad hav-
oc to live stock and grain along the
Dry Glaze and Usage rivers in Camden
county. 1t is also reported that the
Usage river is still rising and the resi-
dents of Lynn Creek have been COM
PEELED to desert their homes.
At Waynesville, Mo-, the Gasconde
river is nearly two feet above all pre-
| vious high water marks and has de-
| stroyed one Of the new steel bridges
recently purchased by the county at a
cost of nearly 1000. All mail commune
cation with the railroad from that place
has been impossible for several days
past The waters are now subsiding
| fast, leaving many farms almost
wrecked and their owners ruined.
Here the Mississippi river has reached
its crest and is falling and reports from
Louisiana, Mo-, above here, Indicate
lower water there, too. All the low
lands in that vicinity are under water
and much suffering has ensued. The
ferry boat New Pike went down to
Hickory chutes above this city and
brought here fifty wood choppers and
their families who had been living ir
the Salt river bottoms They had flee
from their homes and passed the night
before out in the cold.

THE MONETARY CONFERENCE.
Many Requests from Delegates Asking for
Hotel Quarters.

Indianapolis, Jan. SIT has been def
initely settled that the monetary con-
vention which begins Jan. II, will be
held in Tomlinson hall. There have
been many acquisitions for space from
newspapers. A large part of the hall
will be reserved for local business men,
especially those constituting the recep-
ton committee. The galleries will be
open to the general public, but 1t Is
probable that admission to the lower
floor will be by ticket. The executive
committee have received a number or
requests from delegates asking that no.
tel quarters be reserved for them. Lo-
cal members of the executive commit
tee are of the opinion that the conven-
ton will be able TO conclude its laDorS
in two days or three at the outside.
The general feeling at present 1t that
the work will resolve itself into the
appointment Of non-partisan, hlgh
class commission of business men, rep
resenting as nearly as practicable, the
various sections Of the country. 1t is
thought that the commission should
consist of not more than fifteen MEM
bers. 1t is the idea of some of the
members of the committee that all or
the appointees Of the commission should
receive a salary. 1t is believed that
the commission should be well provided
with funds, so that there may be no
hesitation in collecting data, calling eX-
perts and securing written testimony
as to the finances Of other countries.
1t is thought that the money for these
purposes will be subscribed by the
| commercial organizations Throughout
the country. The executive committee
will make arrangements for the taking
of stenographic reports of the proceed
ings of the convention, to be afterwards
furnished to delegates and other IN
| ferectpd

DEEP GOLD VEIN FOUND.
Miners Astonished by Discoveries at Grass
Valley, Cal.

San Francisco, Jan. S.-The mining
world has been set by the ears by the
developments in the Kennedy mine In
Grass valley within the last few days
At a perpendicular depth Of over 2,lOO
feet a body of rich ore, fully thirty feet
in width, has been discovered. In mag
nitude the ore body will compare favor
ably with any yet found, and the great
depth at which it lies eXplodes the long
cherished and heretofore believed in
falible tradition of the search for gold
on the Pacific coast.
IT Is an old theory, which age has az
most crystallized into formula, that
geld ore disappears after a certain
depth has been attained. This Is
creed Of every old prospector from the
Yukon to the Panama isthmus. The
deyelopments in the Kennedy not only
topples over this old belief but may
lead to a revolution in mining in this
state. for the deeper progress Is made
in the Kennedy the wider grows the ore
