All day long merchants in the flooded districts have been at work moving out goods or raising them on plat forms above the water. The river BUTLER, MISSOURI, THURSDAY JUNE 7, 1894. FARMER Cash Capital. continues to expand every hour and the situation becomes more perilous. The weather has become cooler here, but no reports can be had from Eastern Oregon and Washington, the source of all the flood. Tele- graph wires vorth and east are down, and it is impossible to obtain aby news of the situation along the Col- umbia river. The river here is 31 feet above low water, and eyery twenty four hours adds to it from eight to twelve inches. Three fourths of the wholesale district is under water from two to ten feet, und the water is fast encroaching upon the best part of the retail district. Hun- dreds of small houses on the flats |surrounded by water up to the sec ond story have begun to turn over. A further rise of a foot will take them out. Many merchaats are un able to get lumber with which to build platforms to keep their goods above water. Every available boat in the city has been hired, and the boatmen receive from $1 to $5 per hour for services. The Western Union Telegraph company’s office is surrounded by six feet of water. On the west side of the river the water extends almost to Washington street on Sixth street, within one block of the Oregonian building on Sixth and Alder streets Thiseven ing the water reached the first floor of Lipman & Wolf's, the largest dry goods store in the city. On the east side many of the elevated roadways leading to the river ire submerged, aud the Madison street bridge at the south end of the city is the only bridge open to traffic. A rise of six inches more will shut off the gas supply of the city. The Union depot is two feet under water, and the Union Pacific car shops in Albina are surrounded by five feet. Tbe Southern Pacific is the only railroad running trains into | Portland, and they are compelled to stop at the south end of the city, being unable to reach either depot The Union Pacific is hopelesly tied up, both by rail and by boat. The Northern Pacific takes regular trips with the transfer boat Tacoma be- tween this city and Kelso, Wash It is learned from persons arriving here by boat that the storm last night did much damage along the Northern Pacific between Kalama and Tacoma. Houses and trees were blown down, and at Centralia much damage is said to have been done. In this city a hard rain fell most of the day. The flood will interfere with the election tomorrow, as many of the polling places are under water. No estimate of the damage by flood is possible, but it will be some- thing appalling when results from the upper and lower river are reoeiv- ed The Dalles, a town of 4,000 in habitants, connot be reached by wire, but it is known from the height of the water that nearly all the busi ness portion of the town is under water. ‘There is a strong current in the Columbia at that point and great damage has certainly resulted.

Pay the Cherokees. Muskogee, I. T.. June 3.—The Cherokees have received the first in- stallment of one sixth of their money and the big payment of more than $6,500,000 will begin Monday at Tahlequah. More than 24,000 Cher okees will draw $267 in cold cash each. Great crowds of traders, fakirs and sharks are flocking to Tahlequah in the hope of getting some of the money. It is estimated that the merchants have traded more than $1,000,600 on Strip claims, and it is now a question how closely they will collect. There was a chute built from the exit door of the capital to the col- lectors’ quarters so that all parties would have to pass out through the chute and run the gauntlet of the collectors, but such complaint was made by the people that the caute has been torn sway. It is said that in some communities the people are holding secret meetings and de- termining to pay only about 50 pr cent on their indebtedness tu the! retailers.

The total vote, 3327 | shows that the democrats have made | very large gains since the primary in 1892, the increase in the year's} vote being 856 over that of two years .8g0- The republican central committee of this county has decided to hold alate convention, We are ef the opinion that.it would be best not to wait too long. There are several candidates for nominations who de- sire to make a thorough canvass of the county. Rich Hill Pribune. L. E. Shattuck, of Stanberry, Nodaway county, died of Bright's disease on his farm, nes: that place, on the 27th.

Palmyra, Mo., June 1.—This town is in a state of great excitement and the surrounding country is being thoroughly scoured for two men who, at 12 o’clock last night, shot Banker Jobnu M.
