ArTENrloN nEPUBLIoASsi

The Democratic candidates are
looking south Of lhe Mariss dss
/ Cygne with longing. They realize
that they are defeaied north Of The
riyer, and unless ihe'people Of Wal
nut, New Home. Howard and
! Osage save them, they are lost.
And II looks that way to ne. After
carefully figuring and estimating
we are reasonably certain that the
Republican ticket will come 10 the
river with a substantial plurality.
Now, RepubIiean friends. It is up
to US who reside in Rich Hill, and
in the territory trihbtary 10 us, are
we going to let the battle be lost BY
negligence and apathyi The deter
mining votes are in our keeping, and
the responsibility rests upon US. II
IS now only a few days until this
opportunity to work shall be gone
forever. We urge the importance
Of quick, hard, persistent work up
on you. Go at It, and do not rest
day nor night, until the last ballot
IS polled. Il will be a proud day
to the Republicans south Of the
Marias des Cygnes when they are
able to point to the figures to show
that we have won this battle and
captured the new court house. We
can do it, but 1t viii require the sc-
tive help of every one of you. We
urge you to see to it personally that
every Republican votes. Go TO the
ballot box early and stay til the
last ballot is counted. Do not be
afraid to speak to your Democratic
ueighbor. Let him know you viii
appreciate his help to dethrone the
gang at Jefferson City and the ring
at Butler.

Where Is IL?

Albert Badger, writing to the
Nevada Post from Hume, says:
Some thirty or forty years ago,
Prof. Swallow visited this part Of
Missouri, now the territory Of Bates
and Vernon counties, and located
west OF the Marmaton and south Of
the Marais des Cygues rivers, a
prairie mound composed Of pebbles,
at that time imported from Scotland
for all plate glass used in the United
States.
"liis report was published either
by the state agricultural board in
their reports. or by state geological
repor, printed by the state on ge-
ology only.
u have read this report and be-
lieyed l bad il in my library. but a
close hunt fails to produce 1t. Prof.
Swallow stated il was inexhaus,ible,
equal to the imported Scotch, the
finest found in the United States,
aud that the time would come when
it would prove very valuable.
believe thar time has now come.
This report is alive somewhere, and
when found will describe the loea,
ton 20 nearly that any surveyor car
easily find it, and feel sure tha
ny remembrance Of its reading q
OF 90 years ago Is practically correct
~ hope you will print aud eireu
late as widely as possible this letter
Perhaps ii may prove mose valuabl'
than oil or gas. Either Vernon o
Bates has the pebble mound, pro
nouneed by one Of the bes, geolo
gis,s in America equal in all re
spee,s to that We import from Scot
/ land"

LUCAS BROS. MILL
ON FORT STREET
A Quick Fire in a Dangerous
District Was Luckily Got
Under Control.

Honolulu was visited by another fire
shortly after ten o'clock last night. It
is thought to have been of incendiary
origin. The rear building, about hun
dred by fifty feet in size, of the Homo
lulu Planning Mill, the property of Lucas
Bros, was burned and considerable
valuable machinery was thereby lost
The damage is estimated at between
four and five thousand dollars partly
covered by insurance.
Shortly after ten o'clock a Chilean.
employed as a fireman on the steamer
Mikahala, was passing down Fort street.
In passing the planning mill he states
that he saw man and a small fire
near the rear building, but as he
thought the man knew what he was do
ing and had right to do it he passed
down the street. Later he saw the man
going up Fort street toward town.
When he got to the custom house he
turned around and saw the whole rear
of the planning mill ablaze. He was un-
decided what to do and in the mean
time some one else turned in an alarm
The fremen were on the spot quickly
but by the time they had water on the
structure it was mass of fire A
small building next to it belonging to
Hackfeld & Co., containing 800 barrels
of lime and a lot of matches, was also
ablaze. Both fires were quickly got un-
der control, but not until considerable
lumber, the planning mill tools, and the
buildings themselves had been burned.
The engine room of the mill was also
damaged.
Mr.. John Lucas, one of the members
Of the firm, stated last night that their
Whole plant was insured for $4,000. Only
the rear portion burned, but he thought
the loss on it would be about $4,000. and
the insurance on that portion of the
works would only partly cover the
damage. He knew of no reason why
anyone should set fire to the firms
buildings. The burned structure was
d galvanized iron building and was To-
Gated about fifty feet back from the
street.
Had breeze been blowing the fire
would have been a serious one as there
is lot of valuable property in the
including the custom
house and lumber yards and coal piles.
