The NARROW GAUGE. May of

The NARROW GAUaE. May of
the citizens ofLancaster are seriously
considering The proposition to extend
the Galena narrow gauge road TO
this place. 1t is the important theme
of discussion among property holders
and producers. We wouli suggest
that meeting of the citizens be held
sometime after the holidays, say
early in January, to talk over the
wants of community that never
had the advantages of railroad.
G ct out of the woods and do some
thing. To the farmers we put the
qnestion-what does il cost you
annuslg to transport your produces
from Is 10 % miles =? To the merchant
and mechanic-What is the extra
expense for receiving and shipping
overland? Count up the cost, We
say, and see if it wouldn't pay to
have g railroad. President Williams
is our authority for stating that the
$50 900 aid voted by the town of
Lancaster to the Tomaba & Chicago
n. G. r. r., msy be transferred to
Lhe aid Of the extension of the
Narrow Guage from Platteville TO
Lancaster. II re is a fair PROPOSE
ton, and one which, We think, our
citizens should accept. We have no
doubt that, if the citizens of Laucas-
ter will agree, the company referred
TO will cheerfuliy cooperate with |
the town in aid of the PIatteviIle
extension. Continue this road to

NEW YoRK. Nov. 49, The European
mail brings the report that all Of Won
Arnim's letters which involved him in
his present difficulties were addressed to
the German ambassador at Paris and not
to Won Arnim personally, and all are
registered in the books Of embassy, but
it appears that there was o division of
letters. Some of them now withheld by
Won Arnim being registered in his own
handwriting and not by the usual clerk.
and they are registered in a series, with
following dates. as If they had been kept
out of ordinary correspondence for time,
and then registered in lump by the
Ambassador himself. This fact would
indicate the belief that these letters were
not his private property and could not
be regarded as such.
