Duluth, Brainerd & Dakota Railway.

One OF the arguments generally
set forth that here at the head of Lake Su-
perior is to grow up a large, commercial
city, is, that it is natural market and sup
ply point for the whole country west and
southwest of here. This fact the people of
Central and Western Minnesota seen to be
waking up to, as witness from the following
letter, which we find in the last number of
the Brainerd Tribune
To the Editor Brainerd Tribune.
BENSON, Mimi April oath, 1876.
Ny Dear SRA movement Is now on
foot TO construct railroad from this road,
(St. Paul & Pacific at this or some point in
the near vicinity, to the Northern Pacific at
or near BrGUterd
The town of Appleton on the Minnesota
river has voted bonus, and the county Of
Pope has voted aid to the amount OF ninety
thousand dollars.
The road is to be completed to Glenwood
by the lst next December, and to the North
err Pacific by June, 1878.
This project has long been under discussion
but has only taken tangible shape within the
last three months. The road is TO be of the
narrow guage. Eventually it will connect
with the Minnesota Midland railroad now
projected from Wabasha. The settlers in
this section of the State have long felt tt e
necessity for such road The counties of
Swift, Lac Qui Parle, Chippewa and further
to the southwest are dependent upon rail
roads for their lumber and wood, which
reaches them from the last. Paying high
| prices for that which if brought by north
and south road could be obtained at greatly
| reduced rates Then again they are awaken.
| ing TO the Importance OF the Duluth market
| Practically, Duluth is as near Buffalo as Chi
cago, and the communication is nearly as
good from the former as the latter. Then,
Instead of sending the wheat of western
Minnesota via st. Paul to Chicago, it is now
proposed to send it via Brainerd to Duluth
In short, this road will convey large portion
of the wheat Of western Minnesota to Brain
erd and in return bring down the lumber and
wood of the north. This will assist the con.
struction Of lumber mills and other manu-
features in the timber regions at Brnncrd.
1t is road that will pay IN time, tend largely
to the development OF the counties through
which it passes, bring tributary to Duluth a
large section of this State, and contribute in
no small degree to the development Of cen
trail and western Minnesota.

THE system OF political ring-making
ior purposes Of public plumber has uni
formly required that men of both poht-
cal parties should enter Into the compo-
sition OF the ring, in order to make the
amagam perfect against flaws. When
prominent men of both parties were thus
combined, each party would be 10th to
attack the ring, because it would be
firing upon its own troops. And this 1t
is that accounts for the recent surprises
in the investigating proceedings had be-
fore Committees of Congress-tnat in
fishing tor a Republican shark they
would Unexpectedly bring up Demo-
cratic gudgeon; or, in seining around
for haul of Democratic shad, they
would bring in school of Republican
Goldfish; and occasionally they would
catch some of those political flying-fsh
called "Liberals" mixed in the common
crowd Of Democratic herring and Re
publican "suckers." But we hope that
the Committees will not be afraid to use
the drag net, even if they do bring up
some "queer fish" when least expected.

THE law creating a Board Of Police
Commissioners having been enacted,
our City Police will hold their appoint
ment from a source independent of the
Mayor. Under the new law the Gov
ernor appoints the Commissioners, and
they appoint the whole force. We be-
Heye the new arrangement will be con-
duciye to the good Of the city.
Tnere can be no question but that
the police force has heretofore
been greatly demoralized by party
influence, and in some instances
used for party purposes. Now the
police will be independent Of any single
person. No man can then order an Off.
eer to do anything, or omit anything, at
the peril of losing his place on the force
for refusing, ifnot in the line OF his duty.
At all events we believe in giving the
new plan full and fair trial; feeling
convinced that, while it can not be
worse than the old system, it may work
some valuable improvements both in the
character and efficiency of the city's po.

Ex-senator STEWART is in Washing
ton waiting to be Investigated concern
ing the Emma Mine business. He states
thatthe Emma Mine and those connect
ed with it have been the objects of one
Of the deepest laid conspiracies ever
known; and this fact, he says, will even
tually be made TO appear. The stock Of
the mine. originally constituted at So,
100000, is now, he says, worth nothing
on the market; but the mine itselfhe be-
lieves to be all it was ever represented
to be, and is worth at least SIC, ,OOJ, 600 to
day. The testimony OF Mr.. Stewart and
of Gen. Schenck will be waited for with
great interest by people on both sides of
the Atlantic. 1t is plain that Schenck is
thoroughly reused; and those who know
nhis incisive mode of handling men and
things anticipate a fpr-clipplng process
when he comes before the Committee.

IT is now becoming evident that the
issue Of silver fractional currency will
commence before long. Tue Govern
ment, at its different repositories, is now
in possession of about SIC, 100000; and
more in transit, fourteen tons of which
arrive from California during the pres
ent week. Meanwhile the call for frac.
tional currency for business purposes is
becoming quite pressing. About $1,000,
900 Of this remain in the Treasury unis-
sued, while the calls amount to full
$3,0O0,000. None OF this kind of currency
has been printed since January, in view
ofsupplying the need OF any further is
sue by the issue of silver coin instead.
Under the influence OF this movement,
as well as from the fact that silver now
bears no better relation to gold than cur
rency does, good deal ofthe old silver
change is already making its appearance
in business transactions. Shop-keepers
tell us that they now daily receive more
or less of the old silver dimes in change
for goods across the counter.

The city Board Of Aldermen did a
sensible thing the other day in giving
permission for the entrance of the Mar

Deer Creek valley, which valley is no
more than a ravine, and nasty one at

utilizing that rayine in a more respect
able manner, at least so far as the sense
of SMELLS concerned, than ever before.

Company are negotiating for the pur-
purchase of the Chamberlain Manufac-
turing Buildings on Hunt street for
depot purposes. they would seem to be,
both by size and location, well suited to
that purpose.

kissing Judge Settle.
From the Raleigh News. ]


The day Vance got here Abby House call
ed at the Yarboro and said she was bound
TO see him. 1t happened that Vance and
Settle were both in their rooms-Vance in
No. and Settle in No. 9. The clerks tried
10 stave off the old woman, and told her
Vance was then asleep and didn't want to
he disturbed. But she would listen to no
reason.
"Im bound to see that boy," she said,
and climbed the stairs with her stick.
The foor-boy pointed her the way, and
she mstook No. for the room.
She opened the door softly, AMI the cur
tains were let down, the blinds closed and
the room dark as night, and there lay Judge
Settle, stretched out, taking comfortable
evening nap.
Aunt Abby threw her arms around him
and gave smack.
The Judge sprang up and looked wild, and
Aunt Abby staggered back, exclaiming:
"Why. this amt Vance this is you,
Tom" She looked at him steadily few
seconds, and then said, making for the
washstand, II like you right smart, Tom ;
but Pm obleeged to wash my mouth arter
kissin' radical"
This was the first salute of the campaign
at Raleigh.
