1t is estimated by railroad man that
the construction of one thousand miles of
railroad in year requires the labor of co.,
600 men. Last year, 6, APT miles requiring
$50, 600 men, were constructed in the Unit
ed States. In the ten years ending with
1872, the mileage constructed in this ceun-
try was SO, 1874, or about 400 miles year.
During these ten years the increase of
mileage has varied from 73S in 1864, to
IT'S in 1871. 1t is thought that the new
roads constructed this year will not exceed
3, 500 miles, so that 60, 900 laborers will be
released, or have been, for agricultural or
other pursuits. If these men produce as
they should, products of their labors would
soon add so much to the business of the
country, that many thousand new miles of
railway would become necessary. AT all
events, for the present, the labor market
has full supply, and men must work to
live.

EI.otIlcrly Love.

1t is certainly pleasant sight to see
brethren OF one common faith dwell
together in perfect unity, and we now
have case Of extraordinary merit to
relate.
We will preface our narrative, how
ever, with few remarks, for the pur-
pose Of explaining the situation.
Brothers kinlball Of the Herald, and
Taylor Of the Star d, Times, have been
slightly at loggcrheads, at various times,
on some local questions, while Morse
OF the JOURNAL, has seemed to be in
tolerablc harmony, as will be seen by
an extract from the Star C. Times of
June 20 Here it Isl
"The River Falls Journal has a
candid and sensible article on the sub
ject of the next State Senator from this
district"
just SO we thought when we wrote
Il, hence the harmony. And now let
us show how kindly Bros Kimball and
Taylor have recently come together.
The Star d, Times condemned the
action Of the New Richmond Conven-
ton in bitter terms, and last week the
Herald did the same. They fell into
the same train Of thought upon the
same subject, about the same time, and,
for aught we know, from the same cause
There is a strange sameness about the
whole matter which we leave for Others
to interpret Their language is nearly
the same, and their terms exactly the
same Bro. Kimball says the resolu-
ton calling a convention TO nominate
senator was ''Ill-timed," and he can
"sec no reasonable demand for such a
movement"
But here the JOURNAL must step
out for moment, and behold its broth
ers embrace each other. And we are
looking upon the scene with admiration.
We will lift the curtain that our read
ers may enjoy the scene with US.
Listen to Bro. Kimbll:-"We can
safely promise, that if a fair convention
is held, and an acceptable mln put
forward, Pierce County will give her
usual majority"
10 this Bro. Taylor responds
"That is the right kind Of talk 1t IS
the time for harmony now. We arc
not particular as to who the candidate
is or where he comes from, if he is
right on the one paramount question"
= "That ITS southern terminus
should be in Pierce Co., all will agree"
On this point Bro. Kimball puts the
question thusly:-
The only question aow dicdlin9 M
people, Is that of a raiiroad terminus"
We have italici2od this because Of its
Importance.
And right here is where tho JoUa-
NAL falls out with It's respected and
dearly beloved brothern Why scatter
that terminus all over Pierce county?
! But no matter now Jet Us proceed.
BRO. Kimball says:
we desire to see Nj Warner nom
mated aud elected"

THE Republican State Convention is
approaching Bat very little has yet
been said about candidates Gov.
Washburn has no competitor in the
field, aud he will doubtless be renomi-
mated by acclamation. Pierce county
has not been pleased with his action
with reference TO the disposition of tho
ST. Croix land grant, and there is lit
tie disaifection in some other localities.
We have no fault to find with his adj
mirers, and only ask the same liberty
to dislike, that they ask to like him.
We expect to support him, though not
chcerfully.
Candidates for Lieut.. Gov. arc plenty,
among whom we find the names of IL
d. Barron, David Atwood and A. NJ.
Thomson. If MIR. Barron cannot be
nominated, Mr. Thomson would be our
next choice. IT locality is taken into
consideration, Mr.. Thomson's chances
are fair.
With tho exception Of Attorney Gen
eral aud Commissioners Of Immigration,
IL is our opinion that the remainder ol
tho ticket viii be made up Of the present
lncambents Of their respective Offices.
We hope SO At least. since there il not
the remotost probability Of improvement
J by change.

The Star &; Times of last Friday, en-
dorses II b. Warner very handsomely.
In speaking OF the paramount ques-
tiou," it says:
''What the people of the district
want, is the railroad built to Lake Su-
perior. That its southern terminus
should be in Pierce Co all agree. And
any man nominated for Senator who
will pledge himself to the company
most likely to build the road will re-
ceive the endorsement of the people"
Comment is unnecessary.
On the same subject the True Repu5.
hcan has the following:
at has been given out for some time
past, that Judge Barron's friends here,
with his assent had Withdrawn his name
as a candidate for the senatorial nomira-
ton, aud that Hans i. Warner of Pierce
county, was likely to be the coming
man."
After reviewing with appreciation,
Mr.. Warmers course last winter, il
adds:
st has, however, been ihe rumor of
the street for the past ten days, that
Mr.. Warner had been solicited TO be-
come a candidate by the Taylor and
Baldwin ring fuglerS in this city"
AS to Mr.. Warmers having been
solicited to become candidate. We
have only to say that his reply is, that
the solicitation came from his friends.
Sometimes people pray to be deliver
ed from their friends, but we hope that
Mr.. Warner will never have occasion to
utter that prayer.
River Falls journal. [volume] (River Falls, Pierce County, Wis.) 1872-2019, 1873-08-12

In response, Bro Taylor says: "The
Herald is concilatory in its tone"
And that is as plain to be seen as the
nose on womal's face.
Our brothers agree exactly in saying
that the upper district has claims
which are we'll worthy Of consideration"
And this is just what the JOURNAL
had before said, and still comedies.
And o, what harmony!
But now those once precious
claims seen likely to be ignored, and
then where are we? Bro. Taylor says
the candidate must be pledged to the
company most likely to build the road"
He gets almost up to the letter and
spirit of that resolution passed at the
New Richmond Convention. Bro.
Kimball got quite up to 1t, but fell
back strangely when he promised the
usual majority from Pierce county,"
without that plank in the platform.
We might 80 farther with our cx-
tracts and comparisons, but we will
leave the reader for few days, to be-
hold and admire the beauties of this
scene.
But hold. One thing we desire to
repeat Bro Kimball says:-"Ifa fair
convention is held, and m acceptable
man put forward, Pierce county will
give her usual majority" To this Bro.
Taylor again Responsible such a
man, come from where he may, St.
Croix county will give rousiag MAORI
iy. (Thc italics are ours.)
There's brotherly love for you. Why
not? And shall ace dissent? And if
so for what reason? But do not be too
inqusitiye; let us behold this scene for
another week. We love to contemplate
its beauties The scene is a novel one
We think our brothers were never be-
fore known to agree upon local ques-
ton. And why disturb such harmony?
