In a personal communication from a friend living near Pittsburg tbe following trite reference is made to tbe hideous dam schemes: ''Glad you can keep up your fight on tbat water scheme. Guess If any opposi tion comes, It will have to be up your way, for down bere along tbe Ohio folks know very little about it. Tbe dam (pray pardon) schemers seem to have tbe Pitts burg papers heeled off to keep mum, and only the 'saving' to Pittsburg Is men tioned. A room in tbe Exposition shows pictures of sites proposed, levels, and tbe like. It looks good and 'listens' better when recited from tbelr side tbe feuce. Little illogicalities like 'eight or nine months to fill' (referring to a dam on the Clarion) do not appeal to most people as such. From tbe very silence of the ruts burg papers on the subject, suspicions arise that your diagnosis is correct : Pub lic Funds, Private Gain, Private Avarice, Public Disaster. Here's wishing you win out." Each day brings forth new evidence that tbe whole scheme is a plot to grab the water powers, and tbat with full knowl edge tbat tbe public will receive not one fartbing of benefit. Surely tbe gigantio Water Trust is back of it all. Recent Deaths. LONOSTBKTH.
