The Lime KILN Club.

Ever since the organization Oh the
Club. Isaac Walpole has been endeav-
oripg to foi m airing and control the
prices of certain work. His sly efforts
have at last been crowned with success.
He yesterday succeeded in securing the
passage OF the following scale OF prices.
which the thIrty-o on white washers and
stovo< blackers in the Club must stick to
or pay a smart fine whenever they de
part from it. The paper reads:
For whitewashin' de top of o COM
mon 70 IN, de price is sixty cents. No.
extra charge for spilIin' white wash on
de carpet and Wallpaper"
For whitewa shin a short board
feuoe, de price will be 'cordin' to de
length"
''For whithwashin' a long board
fence, add twice as much for de short
one. In no case shell de fggers be less
dan 50
'srwo shillin' she'll be do fgger for
blackin' stoves"
'.No member Of dis Club shall take
the clerkship in a bank for less dan TO
dollars per week.
'sWhitewashin' done in de night shell
be charged all de extra we kin git.
'.Whar' de workman has to put on
gold leaf and fine fresco-work on top
de serond coat o whitewash he shell
charge 50 per day."
"Whitewashin' churches, whar. de
pay hain't sure, dc charge will be Sc
per day"
"No member of dis Club shall own a
steamboat, race-hoss, railroad or opera
house widout givin' de Club one
month notice, dat his admirin' friends
may git up a testimonial of lespeck."
DEBATE RESUMED. o.

THE RAILROAD TO SPIRIT LAKE,
The spirit Lake Beacon announces
that the survey Of the line from Spen-
Ger to that place, has been completed.
The Spirit Lake people, it seems, paid
the expenses of the surveying party.
The Beacon concludes an article on the
subject us follows:
Now, as to ofuturemovements: Mr.. J.
NJ. Hazen, who had charge of the SUR
veying party, and who is in the employ
of construction company, informed
US that rs soon us estimates of the cost
of grading tieing and ironing the line
were completed. they would be submit
ted to 5. $. Merrill, president of the G.,
NJ. Il st. z. II. r. Go. for the purpose of
securing u proposition from him to Op-
crate the road after it is built. If ac-
cepted on terms sufficiently favorable,
then 4 proposition will be submitted to
the people of this )unty and to those
in Clay in the townships through which
the road will run. What this PROPOSE
tiOn will contain is not now known,
but, at least it will involve the voting
of Il five per cent. tax in aid of the road.
We do not apprehend that it will re-
quire much argument to convince the
people of this county that their best in
terests will be served by lending help
ing hand, when by doing 50 we can Sc
cure railroad communication. We may
also hope that t!,e managers of the c.,
NJ. & st. p. Il. R. Co., will carefully
consider the advantage to be gained by
the operation and control of this short
branch. It is safe to say that aside from
the regular traffic of the country their
passenger travel would be more than
treble over at least two hundred miles
of their main line. The branch, would
also strike the best. manufacturing
point in the Northwest.
On the common sense ground that
the road is needed and that our people
want it, we base the belief that this
project will go forward and result in
giving to Dickinson county her coveted
connection with the rest of the world
This branch ought, by all means, to
be extended to Worthington. There is
no apparent reason why it should not
he, and if our business men would in
terest themselves in the matter and
open correspondence with the manage
ment, we see no reason why the road
could not be secured.
