Highlands Citrus Belt: Pierce Coy and w. $. Corwin returned from Imperial last Friday. They bring back almost incredible tales of the richness of that country. MT. Corwin, tor instance, vouches for the truth of having seen with his own eye a pig-weed, grown since last June, that measured eight inches m diameter at the butt aud stood thirteen feet high. Now. how's that for high? No one doubts that Mir. Corwin saw such weed, and that its prodi- gious growth is an indication of the surpassing fertility of this garden spot. The future of this large body of this large body of land and its susceptibility of ir- rigation with the waters of the Colorado is a problem soon to be solved by vast number of capi- talists and home-seekers who are rushing there.
 The Press can vouch for the absolute truth of Mir. Corwin's report on the pig-weed. Peter Barnes, who was here from Cam eron Saturday, stated that at his place there were acres of sorghum planted the latter part of June which stands fifteen feet high, and if the Belt man wonders at this, if he will come down we will show him some things too won- derful to tell outside.

THt SELECTED PARTY lEfT SAN
 DIEGO LAST FRIDAY
Two Vacancies 0n the Committee Filled by q. ?. Wood and 
 Charles N. Clark

nT now begins to look like the Imperial country is almost sure to have a railroad running across it, ard that in a comparatively short time too. Ther s no further doubt in the minds of think people but that in this part of San Diego county is an enormous area of country that in richness is not equalled on the foot stool, which is now under speedy headway of development, and which it is we'll know that within a very few years will furnish all the traffic that two well equipped railroads can possibly take care of. g
 The early fruits and vegetables, melons and all kinds of feed stuffs that will be raised in this valley in abundance, will alone keep a railroad pretty busy, while the amount of cat tie and hogs that this country will constantly send to outside markets will be more than any one road can handle.
 With these existing conditions, the only thing left to be done is to place the proposition in properli light before capital. For this purpose the San Diego-Eastern Railroad committee was organized early in the summer, and has done much valuable work in that direction. The trade of this val ley rightly belongs to the city of San Diego, and the people here want them to have it if they will come after it, and they are coming. The citizens of that place have very readily raised a fund sufficient to execute all the pre- liminary work, consisting of com plete survey of the route from San Diego to Yuma, securing rights of way, frachises, etc, and issuing a prospectus which will contain all the data of the whole project. Steps will then be taken to bring the proposition before eastern capitalists, who it is be- lieved will immediately put the line through when once they are brought to realize the true merits of the project
 The surveying corps, in charge of Engineer Richards, left San Diego about o'clock last Friday, and will work this way as fast as practicable.
 At meetin of the railroad commit tee last week the resignations of w. F. Holt of Imperial and Frank Jen- nings of San Diego were read and ac- cepted. Secretary H. P. Wood of the chamber of commerce, and Charles N. Clark, whose name is mentioned in connection with the election as alder man, were selected to fill the vacan- cieS

Question Answered.

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the
civilized world. Your mothers and
grandmotlers never thought of
using anything else for Indiges-
ton or Biliousness. Doctors were
scarce and they seldom heard of
Appendicitis, Nervous Prostitution
or Heart failure, etc. They used
August Flower to clean out the
system and stop fermentation of
undigested food, regulate the ac-
ton of the liver, stimulate the ner-
vous and O. ganic action of the sys-
tenn, and that is all they took when
feeling dull and bad with head
aches and other aches. You only
need few doses of Green's Au-
gust Flower, in liquid form, to
make you satisfied there is moth
| ing serious the matter with you.

COURT OF INQUIRY.
Courageous Was SchIey's Con.
duct at Santiago.

The Schley Court of Inquiry is
still examining witnesses. Tie
proceedings thus far are very fav-
orable for Rear Admiral Schley.
In SIMPSONS letter to Schley,
directing a disobedience of the
Navy Department orders and deci-
ding to hold Cienfuegos and Ha-
vana, the word Santiago" is used
where, it is claimed, it should be
Cienfuegos. The Navy Depart
ment refused to concede this as an
error, and which, as such, would
justify Schley in having remained
at Cienfuegos; thereupon Schley's
counsel read further from the let
ter to show that Sampson meant
to blockade Cienfuegos and not
Santiago, and demanded that
Sampson be called. There was an
explanation by Lieut.. Hodgson of
the Brooklyn's loop, to show it was
not cowardice. The Brooklyn was
SO close in that there was danger
of ramming or torpedoes. Schley
ord cred turn to starboard. When
attention was called to the prox-
unity of the Texas he said the
Texas would take care of herself.
The turn to STAFFORD was the re-
suit of a discussion between Hodg-
son, Capt. Cook and Schley, the
former favoring backing the en-
gines and turning to port, but the
two others outvoted him, contend
ing that they must not let the en-
envy get away, and by turning to
starboard at full speed ahead,
would make much greater speed,
than by backing and swinging to
port. The question of ability to
have coaled at sea on May Goth is
still mooted one, with the burden
of proof that it could have been
done late in the afternoon.
A statement has been issued on
behalf of Rear Admiral Sampson
to the effect that he did not APP
prove the passage in .."Historian'
Maclay's book calling: Real Admi-
raj Schley "caitiff and a coward
1t is asserted that when Sampson
read this far he became angry and
refused to go further, and that his
secretary finished the job.
Lieut.. Commander Hodgson de-
clared that the Rear AdmiraPs
conduct at the battle of Santiago
was in keeping with his position
as Commauder-in- Chief. The wit
ness also explained his correspon-
dence with Rear Admiral Schley,
concerning the oolloquy between
them during the heat of the SAINT
iago engagement. Capt Folger,
who was also a witness, claimed
that Schley's blockade at Santiago
would not have proved defective
had the Spanish ships tried to es-
cape on dark day or at night.

1t has been discovered in the
last few months that some of the
streams in Trigg and Christian
counties abound in pearls of the
very finest quality, and great ma
ny very fine ones have been dis

sold for as high as fifty dollars in

down to one dollar.
Mrs. Mat S. Major, of Herndon,
was seriously burned about the
face and neck while canning pea
ches, says the Cadiz Record. Mrs
Major had just finished sealing

face and on the neck, She was
thrown nearly across the room by
the force of the explosion.
According to the figures gather
cd by the Courier-J Journal, the APP
proximate number of votes regis
tered in Louisville for the three
days, is 42,080, or 2,149 less than
last year. The Democrats showed
a decided gain, while the Republi-
cans lost 1880. The Democrats
have a plurality over the Republi-
cans and Independents of 5000.
The negroes and "old line" Repub-
licans took little interest in the re-
gistration.
The result of the registrations
in the towns and cities throughout
the State Tuesday of last week,
was gratifying to the Democrats,
as they made substantial gains in
nearly every sectios. In Lexing-
ton. Bowling Green, Frankfort,
Georgetown, and in several Repub
lican strongholds the Democrats
succeeded in surprising their op-
ponents by their show Of strength.
The registration was generally
heavier than last year, and a great
deal Of interest was manifested.

Evansville, Ind, Oct. IA new
consumption cure is being tried
in this city, and members of the
board of health pronounce it a
success so far as experiment has
gone. The county has set aside a
sum of money to help carry on ex-
periments, and tests will be made
on consumptives in the poor mfr
mary. DIR. Peckinpaugh, of Mt.
Vernon, Ind, is the discoverer of
the new remedy. The treatment
consists of inhalation by the pa

objections urged ito the Hay

neutrality guaranteed by the Uni
ted States alone, but that in case
of war the United States may take
such steps as it deems proper for
its own protection.
