Where Dawson Got the Money.

A recent dispatch from Wheeling,
this State, tells the following interest
ing story:
Reliable information, from both Re-
publican and Democratic sources, re-
veals a startling story affecting the
United Mine Workers of America and
the candidacy of William O. Dawson,
the Republican nominee for Governor.
1t is said the treasury Of the miners
organization contributed large
amount in his behalf, variously est.
mated at from $4,000 to $40. 600,
because OF desire to have friendly
Governor. Dawson has denied the
charge that he is a member of the
miners union. He is a member Of
the printers union. AT arecent min
ers district convention in Hunting
ton a resolution endorsing Dawson
was withheld after it had been declar-
ed inexpedient to be passed at that
time.
The miners organization for years
has been making costly fight to or
ganize the West Virginia miners and
has never gotten a good foothold. The
Governor appoints the FIVE mine in
spectors, controls the militia and is
otherwise potent factor in labor sf-
fairs. Every coal operator in the
State fought Dawson's nomination.
There has always been mystery as
to where Dawson got his big fund In
his fight for delegates, and the rumor-
ed financial assistance from the min
ers tends to explain it.

Galyeston's Sea Wall.
he citv of Galveston, Texas, almost

The city of Galveston, Texas, almost
destroyed by an inundation OF the sea
several years ago, has Just completed
the great wall to protect it from the
ravages of overfows.
Two granite monuments were erect
ed at the foot of fremont street to
commemorate the completion OF the
wall and these monuments were I'M
yelled last week. The Galveston sea
wall represents one of the finest piec-
ss of engineering work Of any kind
ever accomplished in America. The
wall is 1883 feet long, Is feet wide
at the base, 5 feet wide at the top, and
stands II feet above mean low tide,
with granite riprap apron extend
ing 81 feet out on the gulf side. The
contract price of the wall was 81, 1885,
3l8. The actual construction Of the
wall proper consumed one year, four
months and seventeen days.
The grade of the city is now to be
raised to slope gradually from the top
of the sea wall. This will necessitate
a raising of the grade from one to if
teen feet, according to location. For
this purpose the State Of Texas has
donated all States taxes collected in
Galveston county for period OF eight
cen years. Bonds to the amount of
$500, 900 are to be issued for this
purpose. A contract has been let for
the grade raising work.
Under the terms of the contract a
canal is to be dug on the inside Of the
sea wall, which will permit the en-
trance of hopper dredges, loaded with
sand taken from the channel in the
bay, to come in and discharge the
filling to the required depth. This
work is now under way. The last
session of Congress provided for an
extension of the Galveston county sea
wall, to protect the Crockett, for a
distance of 4, 900 feet to the west. This
will extend the wall of Fifty-ffth
street, SO that the City of Galveston
on the gulf side will be protected by
sea wall the full extent of its incorpo-
rate limits.
