Over the Steel Rails.

We rode the iron horse over
Gallia's fields for the first time,
Monday. In spite of our resolution
to take practical observations, the
green fields dotted with cattle, would
half steal our consciousness and rob
us of the knowledge of the proximity
of our home. Away we sped over
the long, straight course at the rate
of mile in minutes, unmindful Of
the grades, so slight were they. The
well settled track and thickly laid
ties $1,000 per mile) would scarcely
rock the babe to its slumbers.. En-
gineer Patterson, as he sat with his
hand on the throttle and his eye
scanning the track ahead, was the
ideal grim hero Of the puffing,
plunging horse that rides down the
past's mists and the past's prejudices.
Conductor Gillipsie, with his keen
gray eye, seemed to see ell at once,
and the next moment the eyes would
soften as mild as a child's at the
propounding of a question. Mr.. G
brings high recommendations with
him, and as he is unmarried

Railroad Items.

The towboat Harry arrived Satur-
day, from Parkersburg with the sec
ond locomotive and six gravel dumps.
On Monday they were brought up
and are now at work. The new To-
comotive No. rs, is twin to No. 73
and was constructed in 1880. 1t is
without the Westinghouse Air Brake.
She is engineered by Chas. Chase,
from the c. C. & /. C. r. R. Walter
Cushman of the o. & NJ. R. r. is the
Fireman. The last lot of cars and
the last locomotive for this end of
the line will arrive Friday.
Tuesday evening the track had
been laid past the cross roads at
Williams, a distance of nearly I
miles. The track is being laid at
the rate of three-quarters of mile
per day.
The steam shovel is now at work
filling the dumps. Many additional
workmen are employed In ballasting
the road.
Contractor Scott informs US that
the high water at Glen Run has in
terfered with the construction of the
trestle there, but he will complete it
this week. The two trestles at Nc
Carley's will be completed by about
the lst of June.
Col. Parrott, Paymaster, was in
the city last week.
Paymaster Parrott expects trains
to pass over the road by the fourth
of July.
Mr.. Mccarthy, the boss track
layer, is said to be one of the finest
in the country. He is one of Z bro
theirs, all of whom are experts in this
business. One of them is working
the other end of our line.
Superintendent Norris deserves
credit for his strict observance of the
Sabbath. He permits no work on
that day except what is absolutely
necessary.
The locomotive burns Kanawha
coal, which readily makes steam, but
is very unclean.
Fireman Fry is the jolly boy that
takes the young fellows.

General Garfields District Gives Hin
1886 Majority

General Garfield has received n
most effective win nii:ition from tho
intelligent people OF his own district.
who were best qualified to judge Of
lis character. In tue school district
in which he was born every vote was
cast for him, the Democrats as we'll
as Republicans taking advantage of
the occasion to testify their perfect
confidence in him, anl their utter
contempt for tue slandrrers who
had atte,up,ed to b'acGcn bis chnrac.
ter The Nineteenth Dis rict, which
General Garfield has represented ia
Congress during seventean yetrs ,
gave him ajori'v of 1886. THIS
is 40 increase ov I - O1tobar ma
jolity, which was the largest ever
given in the district. 1t is gain Of
22SG over the large majority given
to Governor Foster in 1879. By
this largely increased majority Gen %
eral Garfield has been gloriousl,
vindicated. His district contains
one of the most intelligent cousti-
tnencies in the United States. II is
inhabited by people who have known
him since his childhood and who are
the best able to judge Of his ability
to fill the high position to which be
has just been elected. The vile
ISLANDERS circulated against him dur
ing the recent campaign aroused
their iu1ignation. They knew his
honesty anl knew the fAlsity of the
charges invented by his pIli'i cnl
enemies, aud they have given bin u
vindication Of which be may well
feel proud, and which is received
with great satisfaction by his friends
and supporters throughout the
country. There aro but fow places
in which elander pays, and the
Nineteenth District is not one Of
