estiagly.
A Hostler of Rome r< porter mat
Major Zack Hargrove this morning
and secured from hies. an impromptu
interview that shows up one of
the wonderful posibilitiee of Rome's
resources.
Tire Hustlers b®bby: “Dam the
Etowah” drew the Majors attention
some time ago and was the entering
wedge of this mornings interview.
“I am glad to see you adv see
ing the dam for the Etowah, Baid
Major Hargroye. “Five years ag® I
decided that Ro ne's salvation lay,
largely in the developing ot one
ofher resources and that was the
harnessing of the Etowak river
and making those rushing waters
operate our factories and shops w
our machinery and our street cars
“Now my plan is thin, go to
Reyno d‘a Bend six miles above
the city and cut a cannal across
the bend at. the base of th« foot
o the bills, plant your electrical
machines on the hill by the canal
and above high water mark and
transmit your power to the city by
a sable laid along the bed of tha
river/ 4
Asked about the river at Rey
nold s Bend and the canal and
water fall Major Hargrove said:
At Bend the river
makes a curve of four and one half
miles and has a fall of 18ft. The
neck ®r cut off, or rather the canal
would be through loamy land, no
rock, along the base of a hill, and
less than half a mile long.”
“Now,” continued he, “let the
big electric plant be put in above
highwator mark and then trans
mit the power to the city by a ca
ble laid along the river’s bed 1 am
imfermed that 90 per cent of it
&i be transmitted in thismauner.
Mr. Hargrove was asked abou'
the dam and said that the river
was not over four feet deep, that
he had waded it many a time wh.le
in bathing.
He said further that several thous
and horse power could be secured
and that the upper plant would not
interfere with other dams that could
be put i« between the Re; uelds dam
and the city.
“I made a speech ‘2O years ago,“
said Mr. Hargrove advoc ting the use
of covict lad er on the pubiic roads
and today I drive to and from the
city over a macadamized road, built
bv convict labor; and the stone of
that road was crushed from marble,
quarried on my land.”
.. Iwas mayor of Roma when the
present water works system was inaa
gerated, and I have always been
proud of the fact."
“I was the first nsan toadvocate a
street car line for the city and had
the pleasure of planting the first cross
tie and laying the first iron.
“I was in the first mass nieetie
called in the interest of the Rome au
Chattanooga railroad. ”
‘I was among the fust advocates
of Rome's present public school sys
tem and today believe we have one
of the best in the state.
I have seen all these enterprises,
conceived years and years ago
battle through the hard days of baby
hood and devolope into institutv ns
of which we are all proud, and I hon
estly believe that I shall yet live to
see the machinery of our city and the
machinery ®f scores of new plants
run by the harnessed power of the
Itowah, when I do I shall feel like
saying “Lord now let thy servant de
part in pease.”
Major Hargrove is indeed a re
ma kanle man and wo hope he may
live to a ripe old age —and keep out
of politics.
And hares to the day that he shall
see the Etowah danred.

Politics getting Warm. Who will
I be the Next Mayer ot the great
Metropolis.
New York, March 21, 1894, —
Many persons in New York who
have been warring with Tammany
eorruption this winter and spring
are complaining that the better el
ement's leaders are not in every
case aiding them. This fact is ad
mitted by the loaders in question,
bit they account for their inac
tivity by saying that there is dan
ger of a revulsion of feeling if the
tiger is found to be hounded un
fairly. It is asserted that Mr. Cro
ker himself has devised a cunning
plan t® allow the Tammany oppo
nents t« heap vituperation upon
the tiger to their heart's content
in this preliminary campaign and
to make up for it when the war
really begins by getting the bene
fit of the revulsion which he ex
pects will set in.
In fact, it seems that Mr. Gilroy
has written a letter to some of the
sachems warning them against the
folly of meeting attacks as they are
made, but instead to save amuni
rion for more desperate extremi
ties. But this neat plan of the
Tamany leaders is being par'ial
-1) frustrated by the discovery of
the tactics, and hence, with a few
exceptions, there is no abuse
heaped on the Tiger by opponents
of that anim 1. This will explain
what to some Republicans has
teemed quee*-,
It is violating no confidence to say
that one prominisnt Republician pos
sesses documents very oempremising
to two Tammany magnates which
have now been nsed until the con
firmatory facts has insured them a
gainst proving a boomerang. This
to be a prolific season for
candidate for the Mayoralty of Mew
York. It is significant that they are
in nearly every case put toward in
the name of the element a faet which
indorse the opinions of those who are
certain that thetradesunions will have
a formidable candidate of their own
in the next campaign, and which is
giving the Republicans so much hope.
The latest man named is Dr. Stan
ton Coil • The Central Labor Union
and the various organizations of the
East side are much impressed in his
favor’ and he is the only aristocrat
and man of wealth who has alleviated
the sufferin * of New York.s poor
whohaswon popularity and was a suc
cess in the effort.
It seems likely that this still
young man will Le the cemmaud
mg figure in the next great looa
issue that cemes before the people
of New York. Ils is leoked upon
as a municipal wonder. He has
the turbulent East Side at his
command almost, and is in favor
wi ’’ leadersand people there
» j really nothing extraordi
nary in his making a great run.
The present state of things in lo
cal New York politics is so unique
that were Dr. Stanton Coit to be
nominated for the Mayoralty, as
appears more than a possibility
now, there might happen things,

NAUGHTY MISS MILLER.
1 SHE SANGIN THE CHOIR, AND NOW
1 THERE'LL BE a DIVORCE SUIT.
Mt. Vernon, 0., March 21. —
The police are looking for Robert
Coleman, an insurance man well
known throughout Central Ohio,
and a late partner of George A.
Beaton. Coleman owns a farm in
Monroe township, a mile or so
from the city, II is office is in the
Stauffer building, this city, and
I or the same floor is a very pretty
, girl not over 16 years of age. the
is or was a member of St. Paul's
vested choir, and Saturday after
noon she told her mother, Mrs.
Frank Miller, that she was going
to the church to practice some
music. Instead of that, she went
with Coleman to bis home in Mon
rce township.
It seems that there was some
degree of intimacy between her
husdaud find Miss Miller, suspect
ed that their relations was Hot
platonic, and she set a trap for
them. Friday evening she told Mr,
Coleman that she would come to
Mt. Vernon to remain over Sun
day with friends. She kept track es
Coleman, and after he and Miss
Miller went to Monroe township,
she get a livery rig and drove out
home. There she found Mr. Colo
man and Miss Millei together, and
immediately gave the young wo
nan evidence of her wrath, Cole
man then assaulted his wife, and
there wae a general scrimmage.
Mrs. Coleman got away and re- ;
turned to town.

the State officer# today received i
copy of the Kansas Commoner, t
f n
Populist paper containing an ar
tide which is ugarded a# most
t revolutionary in its tone. The ar-
I tide reads in part as follows:

i tion demands a sufficient currency

t hundred thousand but a million
• men should go to Washington, not
with a paper petition, but with

The circulation of the paper

of any declaration yet mad# by
