A VERY interesting letter from
our Denver correspondent appears
i-Isowhere in this issue. Jt gives a
concise and comprehensive descrip
tion of tbe water works of the me
tropolis of Colorado and illustrates
the financial progress of tbe com *
pany. Denver , it will be observed ,
has a system of works ombracfng
fifteen mtlea of pipe and a large
number of hydrants , adequate to
the demands of a growing city.
The company owning the worku are
beginning to renl'za handsDmo prof
its from their investments. Cor-
sidering that these works were built
several years ago , when material
and labor was nearly thirty per
cent more costly than now , it is not
eurpriiicg that it has taken several
3 ears before the returns from the
investment began to be profitable ,
Omaha , thougti much more unfa
, f v jrably situated for its water supply ,
I can , under the reduced rate
of labor aud material now
secure water works equal , if not
superior , to those of Denver , at a
aost not exceeding that of the Den *
ver works ; and while the opportun
ity exists for a company of capital-
iits to tenure a liberal charter aud a
-pajlng investment , it would bo well
for njn of means to take time by
the forelock and proceed in this un
dertaking. At present no doubt
ex'sts ' but what a * reasonable charter
could be secured ; but , unless tbis
is undertaken soon by outside cap.
ilnliB'.B , this enterprise must ere long
be taken In baud by the city itself.
FKA5KIA1V WADE.
But few of tbe earlV leaders of the
Republican jarty are left. Qreeley ,
deward , Sumner , Chase , Lincoln ,
Morton , Curtin , Andrew , Fessen-
den , and last , but by no means
east , "Old 'i'bad. " Stevens , have
eng since passed into the unknown
future. Associated with theae em
inent men in the great struggle
against slavery , was Benjamin F.
Wade , no seemed to have been
created especially for that work ,
and the faithful manner in which
executed his part is a matter of
history. Ho , too , has been called
from earth ; and bo left it at tbe
ripe old age of seventy-eight years ,
more than fifty of which was spent
in the servica of his coun'.rymen.
When Ben. Wade v/as one of the
"wheel hcraea" of the Republican
organization , plunder was not the
object sought by either party in a
political campaigu. It was a tre
mendous struggle between two
great sections of country for su
premacy.
The question of the extension of
human slavery was the one direotly
at isbue ; but indirectly , millions of
dollars in property were at stake ,
and that great question which
would not down the right of one
man Jo rob another of his labor , his
liberty , and his manhood , demand
ed settlement.
When lieu. Wade became active
in political affairs , the Democratic
party was in its glory. The Whig
pirty had died with its great leader ,
Henry Clay. The Republican party
was just organizing , and its mana.
gers were young and inexperienced.
In that period of bitterness and par-
llamontary strife a few years prlpr
to secession , Democratic Senators
aud Representatives took tbcir own
time and occasions to assail Repub
lican Senators and Representatives.
They had Congress and the country
EO completely under their control ,
that a cowardly bully , one Brooks ,
a member of the United States Con
gress , could sneak upon Sumner ,
aud , after the inhuman man
ner in which an Indian
or a panther would pounce upon its
prey , almost take his life , and bis
partizan friend * dared to applaud
the act.
But there were a few men with
whom the valiant fire-eaters of the
south , Dustalued by their milk aud
water brethren north , did not care
to grapple with. Thnd. Stevens , in
tbe House , always uttered bis views
without any attempt at smoothing
over the rough places. It had once
been announced that he was again
to attack slavery , in that style pe
culiar to the "old commoner , " and
some of the more rabid slavery
men had declared that ho should not
speak. Stevens , surrounded by
bullies , laid a six shooter on the
desk before him , and made his re
marks. In conclusion , he whirled
upon the braggadocio member from
Virginia who was one of the loudest -
est , in proclaiming that he should
not tpeak exclaiming , "And Vir
ginia , tbe proud birthplace
ofpresidents , has become
a breeder of slaves for
the Southern market. " Anybody
who knows a bully , would know
that Stevens was not molested.
In the Seuate there were two men
in particular with whom the South ,
crn hot-heads never courted contro
versy One was William Pitt Fea-
ceiideu , and the other waa Benja
min F. Wade- Once when * "esstn-
don was speakingho was Interrupted
by one of the South Carolina Sena-
tow , with the remark : "I ( such
Eoutiments a3 yours prevail , we
want dissolution right-away ; or ,
what Is better yet , a trial of right by
might. " There was no begging
Feaeuden did not know what that
meaul ; but quicker than a flash he
shot the answer back : "Don't de
lay it on my accouut ; don't delay
It on account of the * people at the
A'ortta. "
"Sturdy Old Ben" Wade and
Robert Tcombs , of Georgia , never
could get along. Toombs was the
prince of Southern hoi-heads. He
fairly hated Wade , aud Wade fully
reciprocated the feelings of the ar
dent Georgian. Toombs was elc-
quen * , polished , able and corngcous.
Wade was equally courageous , but
less eloquent and less polished , al
though he never failed to send his
arrows of logic or sarcasm with uc-
erriug aim. Wade deliyered a
spee3h on slavery in which he took
occasion to handle in that vigorous
style characteristic of himself , the
doctrine of human slavery , and he
also expressed , with tolerabla free
dom , his opinion of the men who
Btutahied it. Toombs was furious ;
and he intimated to a friend that II
Wivie ever repealed euch eenli.
menta as ho had on that occasion
uttered , hu ( Toombs ) would chal
lenge the man from Ohio to meet
him on the field of honor. Wade
heard or it , and of course lost no
opportunity to repeat , in substance ,
what he bad said before.
"Well , " fays iVade , to oue of
Toombs' friends , ' ! wonder if he'll
fight now. " ' 'Restassured he will ;
Toorabs is uo coward , " responded
the friend. "I hope he will
challenge me , " muttered Ben.
" 1 would have my choice
of weipons. Lei's sec ; I
w'll pin a little white paper over my
heart , uud Toombs shall pin a little
white paper over his ; we will fight
with rifles a forty rods , aud if I
don't cut that paper , d n me ! "
Ben. Wade was considered one of
the best jifla shots in the country ,
and the challenge was never sent
The announcement of the death
of Ben. Wade caused no eurprlse.
Tbe telegraph informed us some
time t-iuce that his end was near ,
and ail that could be doue was to
send him messages of cheer , laden
also with gratitude for tbe great
work he had done.
Mr Wade was a bitter partizan.
But that is not against him. A man
who is not a partizan is without a
positive conviction ; and such
a man citmot do any good
nor tny Jjarm. He will
have no enemies , it is true , but he
will have no friends The Ohio
statesman wa no H i-h mnn as that.
Hia convictions tveru a part of him *
self , and bis partisanship was as
strong as his convictions. His
friendships werejdeep , firm and true ;
tie was au uncompromising foe , and
like all great men , he was as gener
ous ns he was bravo and honest.
He has been called "Sturdy old
Ben Wade , " of late years , because
of his physical and mental vigor at
an advanced ago. This was largely
due to his strictly temperate habits.
He did not use tobacco in any form ;
was a hater of intemperate drinks ,
indeed cold water was hi3 only
beverago.
In conclusion let it be remembered
that he was in office a greater portion
of bis Ufa , and a charge of corruption
was neyor laid at his door. Let the
young men who read of the death of
'Sturdy Old Ben Wade" profit by
his example. Let them be as true
to their country ; b.o as true to their
canvictions of duty ; and what is of
fir more importance , b3 as true to
themselves as was bo , and a ripe old
age , with a lifo well spent which
is the dearest of all consolations as
the old man nears the future will
be theirs.
