Not Reasonable Objections.

It is objected to the proposition
that railroads ought to be built out
Of Red Wing, running to Cannon
Falls, and Zumbrota and Kenyon,
first, that they would be extended
westward}y and made to benefit
other cities more than Red Wing;
secondly, that they would build up
little towns along their lines and that
these would divide the trade with
Red Wing; and thirdly, that they
would not prevent the subsequent
building Of other lines Of road north
and south and east and west, across
the county. We cannot but regard
these objections as unreasonable
and untrue, and we think that we
can show them to be 50.
First, why should these roads be
extended westwardly ? Is it not
obvious that they would not be, un-
less to do SO would benefit some
city west of the points named, either
by causing the country east Of it to
become tributary to it, or by afford
ng it an outlet for its commerce
through Red Wing In order to
turn the direction of commerce
westward, the market found in that
direction must be better than that af-
forded by Red Wing. Now is it rea-
sonable to suppose that any city west
Of Goodhue county can ever afford
to offer to the people of this county
inducements for their trade superior
to those which Red Wing can afford
to offer :? Remember that, to do
this, they must pay for country pro-
duce in excess Of Red Wing prices
with the cost of carriage westward
added, inasmuch as the ultimate
mark ct must always be in the East.
If the produce is first taken west
waraly, it will have to be shipped
again eastward and have the expense
of additional transportation to pay.
How, then, can these westward
cities become rivals OF Red Wing for
this trade -? The same disadvan-
tage will attend their competing for
the trade in merchandise. They
will be under the necessity of ship
ping this over a greater distance. If,
then, these proposed roads shall be
extended westwardly, the effect Of
such extension can only be to in
crease the area of country tributary
to Red Wing.
Secondly, instead Of building up
little towns along their line, as these
roads will be owned by the people
of this county and city and as it is
obvious that they will be managed
in the interest of their owners, what
possible reason can there be to sup
pose that obey will be managed to
build up little towns along their line?
That they will aid in improving vii
lagos like Cannon Falls and Zum-
brota, and proposed terminus like

Yesterday another Of our old resident citizens
died, leaving large family and host OF friends
10 mourn his loss. Mr.. Robert Brown, to whom
we al ude, was one Of our most respected and in
fluential citizens, and had arrived at Che adj
vanced age Of sixty-nin years. He was born in
Maytyille, Ky. in the year 1903, and moved to
this city IN 1847. For four years he was Superin-
tendent OF the new Gu. tom House, snd
has the honor of having been one of the charter
members Of the Mount Morish Lodge OF Masons.
Kentuckian is brother in Louisiana, especial
ly when that Kentuckian has become identified
with our State like MIR. Robert Brown, by resi-
dence Of thirty years, during which he has full
filed to the letter all his dunes as a citizen. We
sincerely condole with his bereaved family
