Isiaa'lriaXT larewtsaeaUL To aoroiapllU this
tadindaaJ aad pudlle- rlfata alike were often
acrlP.9e-l ai.4 octloui ciaoriralnatlon was r
retediy practiced. The situation compelled
aepeovlela seif defanae to adopt a system
wfclca practically reversed former conditions,
aad put the control of rates in the hand of ofil
eera selected by the public. The people desire
o wrong te the railway Interests of the Mate,
but oaly lie maud that their cu interests shall
be fairly treated. He continues :
"It 1 greater faoUme. for transportation that
Iowa most needs. She should help hasten the
day when the waters of our reat lakes will te
turned from their course ur;d mada to minjile
witathoof the miRiity r.vers thut clasp her
la their giact aria. Already, in th very In
fancy oflts existence, ttLs section nurpaswes
ail others of e;ual extent in tiit magnitude
of lis surplus f Ki piodui'tioas. De
prived of rfasonabitf rates f transporta
tioa they are of little Talue to those
whose capital and labor produce them, and
without th"m the commerce cf this Nation
would b largely crippled and rr.any of Its great
cities cease to expaa l. If thev did not dwinnle
Into decay. Who shall praap this ditncult prob
lem and solve it in the latercst of all our peo
ple? It will be the mn who set this Nation to
wmK to complete th connecting link of a
mighty waterway that shall cut a continent in
twwin and open the cheapest of all methods of
transportation from the gulf to the sea."
Oa the subject of redistnetieg the State the
OoTernor says that the present apportionment
la manifestly unfair In that it gives to one per
son la one part of the State the same repre
sentatlon In the Legislature that is iwcorded to
four in other localities, and the difference is
evea greater than this la some districts. The
present ratio of representation must be abol
ished, and the Legislature must establish a
tew one aad red 1st net the State.
The Govern "r thinks little can be done in the
way of legislation to improve the condition of
the common school system, but if the higher In
stitutions of learning are made to compare fa
vorably with those of other States larger surr.e
cf money mut b oontnbuted for their supi-ort.
With regard to the law regulating the practice
of pharmacy the Governor says that complaints
from men en-rajd in the business are in some
particulars well founded. Kvery bection
of the law regulating the sal of intox
ieatinr lijuors for ind!clnal purposes is
framed upon the theory that these men as a
class are unworthy the confidence of their
neighbors, and they are subjected to lejal re
strictions unknown to any other trade and un
necessarily humiliating. The State owes it to
herself and to those of her citizens who are re
quired to handle alcoholic stimulants for neces
ary purposes to rut this business upon a rep
utable basis before the law- or abolish it at once
and forever.
In spite of Its facilities for enforcement, with
all its terrors, with every brar.cb of the State
government la the hands of It friends, the pro
hibitory law la Iowa has lain limp and lifeless,
Ignored, disregarded and despised In most of the
large cities of the State from the day of its
birth to the present time. It la a patent fact
known t every on who has taken the pains to
Inform himself taat in any of the cities, con
tainlng as they do a large fraction of the popu
lation, the oaly eZeet of the law has been to re
lie ve tb trafSo la these liquors from legal re
traint o rery kind.
The chief otoetaele to the enforcement cf this
law i:s In the fart that in and of Iteelf it is a
ruel violation of one of the most valued
of human right. Dy that act Iowa
stands convicted cf first making the but
aest of the brewer and wine-maker legal,
of watching without warning the expansion of
their business witaia her borders uatll millions
upon millions of the capital of her citizens
bad bea invested therein, and then coldly
wtpir.g it out without one efTort to comper.eate
thoee who ware ruined thereby.
The rriestlon la fear w statesmen upon both

people there of their danger, but
the man stopped at a saloon and,

Ci.nciti, Feb. 27. The river at

and caw-half it.cLe& and wa$ a till riaicg.

of ls?S and ISM, when th w ater reached
hetget of aevetily-on feet, un
les ihreahould b phenomenally rainy
weather within the uexl fo-rdays. TL
preae nt stag drive. out many families
In the low grounds of Cincinnati, Cov
itsgton, Newport and other points alon
th river.
Most of tb basement of Wale ,
Front and Second streets ar flooded,
aud the aliew alas are almost entirely
covered with wares that have hereto
fore been atored in th cellars. The
Mill creek bottoms ar filling up
rapidly, and th water is but ten feet
from the level of Eighth street and
th railroad track. Below this point
th tracks are submerged, although the
water is not high enough to quench th
fires of the locomotives. Six firms in
the commission business on Water
street have moved out and many others
in the bottoms are making preparation!
to vacate.
The flood water has inundated the
pits of the Addyston pipe works and
the Anchor iron works at Newport,
and all operations at both mills have
been suspended.
All day Tuesday and Wednesday th
people who clung to their second-story
habitations watched with great anxiety
the steady rise of the waters. Many, re
membering the btriking similarity be
tween the action of the water this year
arid in l?S4.and also alarmed at the rapid
ity of tne rise, abandoned their homes,
leir.g taken out in boats which an
chored under their windows and re
ceived them and their more important
personal effects. No household goods
of any bulk could be moved In this way,
and hundreds of families have
abandoned their beds and furniture.
The citizens of Cincinnati are not gen
erally alarmed at the present rise. The
water in reached seventy-one feet
and a fraction of an inch, nearly twenty
feet over tho expected rise, liut when
it is remembered that the water is seven
feet abovo the danger lin it is not diffi
cult to appreciate the seriousness of the
yesent situation.
The flood has reached many cf the
large business houses in the bottoms,
and some firms have been obliged to re
treat from their ground floors. The in
terruption to business is serious and on
some streets nearest the river is prac
tically at a standstill.
Telegraphic advices to the Commer-cial-Oazette
say that farmers along the
Ohio are moving their stock to the
higher lands and taking every precau
tion against loss.
A serious accident is reported from
Ileattyville.-t at the headwaters of
tho Kentucky river, where, owing
to the rapid rise of the waters, a
lumber boom broke and let looso S0,000
great logs, which at once started on a
mad rush down tho river, threatening
destruction to every thing that comes
in their way.
One noticeable characteristic here is
the sluggishness of the current at this
high stage of the water. This leads to
the inference that th Big Miami and
the Kentucky rivers and other tribu
taries immediately below here are
pouring an unusual ilood into the Ohio,
and that this serves a3 a sort of a dam
that piles up the water here and checks
the rapidity of its flow. The rain-fall
was evidently less along the Ohio tribu
taries of the Ohio river than in Indiana,
Kentucky, West Virginia and Western
Pennsylvania.
Hamilton, O., Feb. 27. The Big
Miami river reached its highest point
at 3:30 Wednesday morning. Great dam
age was dono to property along its
course through this eitj The surround
ing country was. during the early morn
ing hours, completely submerged. All
trains entering this city were delayed
for hours on account of bridges
being washed away or mad un
safe on account of the high
water. Farmers on the bottom lands
are heavy losers. Fences, and in many
instance; stables, were carried away.
At Seven Mile, a village north of here,
