@rsirst Apostle"

CHICAGO, August 2O.--Further evi-
dence Of peace negotiations between
John Alexander Dowie and Wilbur
Glenn Voliva and his followers came out
at two meetings held In Zion City yes

sented Dowie and declared that the de-
posed leader would give to the public
in a few days statement Of his side
Of the controversy.
For the first time since the differences
arose between Dowie and Voliya, the
general oyerseer prayed for Dowie and
asked the people to do the same. They
were asked to pray that Dowie be guild
ed Alright in any step he was about to
take. According to the Inter Ocean, an
an agreement was reached yesterday By
which Dowie win, for the remainder Of
his life retain the First Apostles Of
the Christian Catholic Church, while the
temporal affairs Of the community win
be in the hands Of voliya and his sup
porters.
It was finally agreed that Dowie
should drop all attempts to dispute the
ruling of the Federal Court in the con-
test case between himself and voIiva
for the possession of the assets of Zion.
Dowie also agreed to give his tenta-
tive support to voliva in his campaign
for the place of general overseer at the
election ordered by the court for next
month.
In return for this voliya and his
friends promised that so soon as the
Office Of general overseer is vested in
yoliya. the latter win proclaim him
self with the teachings Of Dowie and
acknowledge his supremacy in all mat
ters pertaining to the church.

Bryan To Australia.
And so, there was relief and satis-
faction when the word came that after
a few weeks In America, Mr., Bryan
would again set sail for long voyage
to Australia. No arrangement Of things
could have been better. After long
absence during which his popularity
has had tremendous growth, Mr.. Bryan
returns, receives the piaudits of his
devoted followers, makes graceful ac.
acknowledgement, and sails away again,
giving to absence a second opportunity
TO make the Democratic heart grow
fonder. Thus, both to Br. Bryan and
the Democracy, are spared the petty |
annoyances of daily contact, the criti.

By an explosion in large coal
mine in the north of France last
Saturday twelve hundred miners
lost their lives. A party of sew
enteen miners who, in the face of
warnings of the extreme danger,
heroically decended into the
mine to rescue their brethren,
all lost their lives. 1t is not
probable that many of the bodies
of the miners will ever be recov-
cred. This is said to be the
worst mine disasted that has ever
occurred in Continental Europe.

THE RED MOUNTAIN ROAD.

The contract for the building
of this road will be let on the I'd
of April. 1t would be a decided
bit of folly and blow to the in
terests Of Leavenworth if this
enterprise should fail for lack of
bidders, as was the case last fall,
when only one BID was laid be-
fore the county commissioners,
and that rejected because the
court considered the bid too
high.
The building Of this state road
for which the last legislature ap-
propriated $1,000, and to which
the county has added $500, will
open up p rich mining section, in

has been dope to justify the be-

opening up these mines. Less
than thirty days past group of
claims in this section was sold to
a New York syndicate for 1875,
600. This company is anxious
to begin operations on the prop
erty, and only waits upon the
completion of the road. The
North Star Mining Co. moved a
saw mill up in the direction of
the mines as far as the road is
passible for wagons last fall.
1t is not only the opening up
of valuable mines that the build
ing of this road will aid, but it is
also the opening up of some ten
thousand acres of rich valley
lands to settlement, all of which
will be tributary to Leaven'
worth, that makes the building
of the road important.
If the scheme falls through
this time for want of bidders it
is not likely that the appropria-
ton will become available for
further use.
In addition to the future bene-
fits to the town from the open
ing up of the mines and the set
Element of the agricultural lands,
there is the immediate benefit of
the expenditure of $4,000 right
here at home.
1t behooves our business men
to extend such aid to any re-
sponsible man who wants to bid
on the contract to enable him to
comply with the law. A certi-
fed check for $400 must ac-
company every bid. This will
be returned when the successful
bidder makes bond guarantee
ing the carrying out of the con-
tract.
The last legislature provided
for a state road fund which is to
be applied to keeping up and
improving these state roads.
Every year this fund will
be portioned out to the diff
ferent state road. In this way
we would not only in time have
a good public highway across
the Cascade Mountains, but we
would also get back the money
we contribute to the fund, as
the great bulk of it would be
spent here in Leavenworth.
Those who gre interested in
the future of this town ought to
see to it that the road is built
this year. The homely saying
that "God helps those who help
themselves" applies with as
much force to communities as to
individuals.
