A Pacific Railroad.

The New York Tribune proposes a plan
for settling the vexed question of locating the
route of the proposed Pacific Railroad. 1t is
the only plan by which sectional jealousy can
be overcome, and conflicting local interests
forced into quietude. ......-
Let Government advertise for proposals
for the construction of single road from the
borders of any one of the States in the Miss
issippi valley to the border of any one of the
States on the Pacific, to be built within five OF
ten years. Let the proposition go forth, and
let the bids specify the cost per mile, and the
number Of miles of road, but leave the location
of the road to the contractors and their eng-
neers so that it shall not be located south of
New Orleans or north of Pembina, and shall
run the entire distance through the territory
of the United States
One such railroad is an imperative military
and commercial necessity, and it should not
be sacrificed because of sectional jealousy !;
and in this view of the case, it matters little
where the road is located. If it should not
be so located as to secure the greatest COM
mercial advantages, time will soon correct, or
rather supply, the deficiency, and give us
road or roads upon the route best calculated
to promote and secure the interests of the
whole country. The great and growing States
on the line of the South Pass prefer a road on
that route, but they would rather have one on
even the extreme Northern or Southern route
than not to have one at ALL
The suggestion of the Tribune is as follows
'The true way is not to inquire, nor even
to know, on what route the bidders propose
to construct their line of railroad We do not
need three roads-cannot afford to build so
not to begin second until we
shall have completed the first. Just invite
for the construction wholly through
our own country of railroad connecting
some line of road already constructed, which
reaches to the Mississippi, with the Pacific,
and let the most favorable bid be accepted
forthwith. Then, let the successful bidders
build their road just where they shall find it
most advantageous to do so-whether that be
through the valley of the Gila, of the Platte,
or the Saskatchewan. This is right in itself,
and the only way in which sectional jealousy
can be disarmed, and sectional rivalry put to
good account"

Pixies Peak no Great Things
ADRIAN, Mich, Jan. IS. 1S

ADRIAN, MICH Jan. Is, 1888.
| SEQ the papers teeming with fabulous
accounts Of the richness of the South Platte
or Pixies Peak god mines. Now when saw
that this is the greatest humbug of the day,
speak advisedly. l have made two sue
cessful trips to California; l first crossed
the Pains ia 1S49, and worked in the mines
nearly two years, and returned to my home
in Cleveland, Ohio. | return.d again in
1852, and worked nearly two years more in
the mines SO think l am qualified to Judge
from thorough prospecting, what man can
make per day in the mines. Last Septem-
Der, |, in company with seven others, start
ell for the go d mines of South Platte. There
were also two ether California miners
j. d. Sprauge and James Fry-in our
company.
We prospected the Platte, Cherry Greek,
Plumb Creek, and many other small streams.
We found gold but the bare co or v as the
fruit of mos Of our washing. We have
found as much as two cents to pan of dirt:
but such places were few and far between:
and at no place could we make dozen pans
OF dirt average one cent pan. 1t is all very
fine, or wash gold. 1t is estimated by many
that there will be $4,000 emigrants to the
gold dlggings In the Spring and Judging
from what have seen on my way down and
on the frontiers, | think it will be larger,
unless the truth is fairly stated. The Dor.
der men have great interest in publishing
hatterlng accounts; and indeed that appears
to be the only source that such fables yet
their start from.
Every one who goes to the diggings with
the expectation Of making money by digging
gold is destined to a great disappointment.
There are those on the borders who are now
to fit out the dupes of their fiat
tering accounts, that will make a great
OF money; and they alone will be
greatly benefited bv this stupendous hum
bug. | write this, hoping it may save some
from the disappointment which they must
Ultimately feel if they expect to find a new
Ell Dorado at Pixies Peak. Young man, if
your object in going to the Pixies Peak
country is for the purpose of making a
raise" by all means go to California, or
else stay at home. E. G. HorE,

sy- The Muscatine Journal says that
nearly all the wheat that is received at that
place is brought from Jones and Linn coun-
ties, DISTANCE of from 40 to 60 miles. The
dealers are paying. 81 per bushel for old
wheat, of which they are getting considerable
quantities. The you,nabthinks that their
market is paying higher prices than any other
in the State-trom the fact that these men of
the above named counties cross two railroad
tracks to get to that market.
A gentleman of this city informs US that he
has been out through these counties, and saws
that so deep-seated had become the enmity of
the people in that region against wildcat
money, that they refuse entirely and totally
to bring any produce to this market, if they
can get rid of it at any place else. Muscatine
didn't deal in the trash, and the consequence
is, instead of bringing their wheat here, they
carry it to that city, which in reality pa Us no
better price. Have we learned lesson, or
have we not? That is the question Dao-
