Vlsduet Question Is Cutting Large
Figure In ttao Present Campaign.
Good Work Being Done.
Mixed with the regular political talk
there In a trreat flavor of the yladurt
question in the present campulgn.. The
viaduct worklntf committee In hard at
work. L.ast evening a meeting of the
voters of Bellevue He Kht was held in
the Bellevue mission house and several
uroinlnent Eentlemen delivered ad
diesses. Morris Thomas presided. The
viaduct headnuarters in St. David t
hall is busy at night receiving those
interested in the outcome or the elec-
tion and arraneinir the details of the
T fhrnpalgn. There has been hardly. any
Opposition to It shown. Only one man
has objected thus far and his real rea
sons are readily seen.
The wisdom of Councilman Oliver's
plan cannot be overestimated. If the
'viaduct were built on the Nealls court
site, thu people north of l'rlce street
would receive no benefit whatever, nut
as it will cross the railroad on I.nrka
wnnha avenue, thut is if it wins, then
everybody will be benefited. .

of Company P? is the main topic of

TIMES HAVE CHANGED.
From the Republican. Jan. 28, 1SS1.
t We are confident that with a united Re
publican, support Colonel Ripple can be
elected, and to the accomplishment of this
It now behooves every Ttepubllcan to la
bor and exert himself. As the choice of
the Republican party Colonel Ripple Is
entitled to the support of all who In good
faith adhere to the organization, and in
so far as lies In the Republican his suc
cess will be the object of our most earn
est efforts. The Interests of the Republi
can party no less than the best interests
of the city demand that the party now
present a solid and united front. In this,
spirit the Republican accepts the result.
It will yield to Colonel Ripple as the can
didate of the Republican party, the same
earnest and sincere support It would
have expected from his and his friends
had Major Penman been successful.

IRISH PEAT BOGS. .
Processes for Turning Peat Into Cloth
ing and Machine Hearings.
According to recent discoveries of
German Investigators, Ireland possesses
In her peat bogs a remunerative and
extensive field for the employment of
capital and labor. These Germans
have formed a syndicate and are at
present exhibiting In London new pro
ducts of peat, which range from anti
septio wool to bearings and Journals
for machinery.
The labor of the chemist-and me
chanician Is needed to effect the trans
formation of peat. The first process
which the raw peat goes through, after
being dried, Is that of being thoroughly
teased or "deviled" by machinery,
when It presents the appearance of an
exceedingly coarse brown flCfr, which
can be spun intd yarn or woven Into
woolen goods. .The. fiber for the finer
purposes is mixed with IS per cent, of
ordinary wool, but In most of the ma
terials only the pure peat is used. The

an antiseptic and possesses absorent
qualities so great that It will soak up

WANTED DICKENS TO SIIAVI
Hans Christian Andersen a Guest ut
tisdshill.
When Dickens first met Hnne Chris
tlan Anderson In a London drawing
room he asked his fellow novelist to
pav him a visit at Uadshil. The In
vltutinn was promptly accepted and
the guest remained a long time. I'pon
manv occasions, during this very pro
tracted visit Dickens found his patience
uut to the test by ins new friend. In
spite of Hone Christian's many merits
and good qualities, nis very maiKeii
peculiarities made him an exceedingly
dtfiicult person to entertain. He .as
extremely sentimental nnu emotional,
and frquently. for no apparent reason.
would burst Into a flood of womanish
tears and rush away to his own room,
A few days after his arrival he rang
the bell and asked to see the eldest son
of the house. The eldest son was away
and when Dickens himself went to see
what- his guest desired he found that
Andersen wished the eldest eon to shave
him, that being the custom of his coun
try. Dickens explained that in the first
place young Charles was absent, and
that, secondly. It would be an experi
ment fraught with danger for him to
.attempt the desired service, as, with
the very best intentions, he would pro
bably nearly decapitate his Illustrious
-guest, under these most untoward cir
cumstances Hane Christian. . weening.
