TEE N. P. LAND GRANT GOOD.

Every year the enemies of the
Northern Pacific Railroad Company
organize their forces and try to do
something to injure, retard and annoy
that company, the principal hobby
being to try to get their land grant
set aside in vain hope of getting it
themselves. The same old fight is on
the docket again this winter. Accord
ing to eminent council, this grant can
not be molested. In speaking of this
matter editorially, the Pioneer Press
of the 18th says:
efforts have been made by parties.
apparently in the interest of the great
Jay Gould monopoly which has reason
to dread the approaching completion
of rival lines to the Pacific. or for
purposes of stock speculation, to con-
vey the impression that the land grant
Of the Northern Pacific railroad has
been forfeited and consequently that
the titles for lands sold, or that NAV
be sold hereafter, are defective. The
clear statement of the law and the
facts in the case which is made by Mr..
Gray, the company's counsel, should
make it manifest that such apprehen-
sions, if honestly entertained by any
one, are entirely groundless The grant
,uo- bSn Into o,,J unconditional 81
the lands became the property Of the
company SO soon as the location of the
line was made and filed, although the
! patents were not to be issued until GER
tain portions Of the road had been
completed. There was absolutely no
forfeiture whatever for failure to COM
plete the line in given time, as has
been hastily assumed by the enemies
Of the road The only stipulation was
that if the work was not prosecuted
with sufficient rapidity the government
reserved the right to employ such
means as were needful to insure its
completion. In face Of the fact that
under the present management the
work Is being prosecuted with almost
unparalleled activity, and will be en-
tirel y completed in 1888, all ground
of complaint and all pretext for gov
eminent interference are removed. The
financial resources Of the company are
practically unlimited, and it does not
appear how any change could be made
which would not greatly retard the
progress Of construction or fail to re-
suit in disaster The annual attack
which Is made on the Northern Pacific
in congress Will end, like all its pre-
/ deccssors, in the total discontinue of
the assailants, whether their purpose
Is to embarass the company in its
financial operations or to speculate on
the transient apprehensions to which
such attacks will naturally give rise
in the minds of ill-informcd stock
/ holders"

RAILROAD LEGISLATION.

The legislators at Madison have fl
nally got through with the land grant
business, and our railroad muddle will
soon be adjusted. The lands formerly
intended for the Air Line road, have
now been taken from that company in
default Of building the road as stipu-
lated, and given to the Chicago, St.
Paul, Minneapolis q Omaha company
In return for this the Omaha Compa-
ny pays debts of the defunct Air Line
company.to the amount ofs7S, 900, and
have also agreed to indemnify the state
against loss in feeding the workmen
who have been living off of charity for
the past four weeks, should the $4,000
not be sufficient to meet all these de-
mands, Excepting this amendment
the bill was ordered to its third read
ing by the House last Tuesday, just as
it came from the Senate, a full text of
which we published last week.
LATEsT.-The bill giving the lands
to the Omaha Company being called
up for its third reading and final
action, passed the House by large
majority, and returned to the Senate
for its concurrence in the House,
amendment relating to reimbursing
the State for the expenses in maintain
ing the men who were thrown out Of
employment and who have been pro-
vided for at the public expense since
that time. OF course the Senate will
not object to that plan, and the bill
has no doubt received the Governor 5
signature ere this. Now the workmen
will secure their pay and have no
further excuse for remaining idle.

Utilizing Water Powers.
Pioneer Press.

Pioneer Press.
About one year ago steps were
taken as preliminary in the organ
ization Of what is now known as the
St. Louis Water Power company, and
last month the corporation was per-
fected in accordance with a plan
originally devised by Jay Cooke, and
including the utilization of the fine
water power on the St. Louis river,
Justly considered one of the best in the
Northwest In the distance of nine
miles between Thomson and Fond du
Lac there is a fall of 800 feet in the
river mentioned, and a new company
proposes to use this vast power for
numbering and manufacturing pur-
poses-the fee of 5000 acres of land
on the Wisconsin and Minnesota
shores Of the stream being now vested
in the company. Its capital stock has
been placed at 100000, three
fourths Of which has been subscribed
and valuable boom charters in Wiscon-
sin and Minnesota are held-covering
all the available boom ground on the
st. Louis river.
The company will at once proceed
with the construction Of new boom
costing $4,000 and with a capacity
Of 100000 feet, which will be in
creased to 100000 next year.
The officers of the new company are
as follows
President, James Smith, Jr, St
Paul Vice President, E. L. Craw
Grand Haven, Mich. Secretary, G
B. Kirkbride, Minneapolis Treasurer
l.. Mendenhall, Duluth Genera
/ Manager, James Bardon, Superior.
Offices will be opened at st. Paul
Duluth and Superior CITY, the prin
cipal being located at the latter point
The first booming ground will hole
over 100000 feet of timber, and two
extensive mills will be built by tho
company this year.

The Court in Banc to which Quit
eau continually alludes may not be
generally understood
The judicial affairs Of the District
of Columbia are in the hands of q
Chef Justice and five Associate Justi-
ces. These, sitting separately, have
jurisdiction generally similar to that of
Common Pleas Judges in the several
States. Sitting together, or in banc"
as the Supreme Court Of the district
is generally termed, it has jurisdiction
analogous to that Of a State Supreme
Court, passing on points of law raised
in cases decided by the individual
Judges when sitting in the subordinate
courts.
The court in banc" therefore means
the Supreme Court Of the District in
full bench. The members Of that
Court are Chef Justice ID. X. Carter,
and Associate Justices Andrew Wylie
Arthur Mae Arthur, Alexandra B. IIag-
ner, Walter $. Cox and Charles p.

Dillon O'Brien, one OF Minnesota s
brightest lights died suddenly Of heart
disease, in St. Paul, last Sunday For
years past he has devoted bis fortune,
time and energies in trying to aid and
better the condition Of his countrymen
in directing them to this country and
in shaping their course of action when
here, and was the head and front of
the Conamara Colony brought over a
year or two ago. Realizing that the
love of strong drink was the Irish
mans greatest failing, he has long
been a leader in the Father Mathew
Temperance work, and has helped
many a man from the gutter up to
respectable manhood and citizenship.
The body Of Dillon O'Brien has been
laid in the ground, but the memory OF
his many kind and generous acts will
remain, and become his most fitting
monument.

A Notable Day.

The 18th of October Is a-noteworthy
date, being the 300th anniversary of the
of tie GregorIan calendar.
1t was the work OF Pope Gregor KILL,
who in the year 1882, being struck by the
fact that the vernal equinox, which at the
time of the Council OF Nice, A, d. 825,
had occurred ON March 81. then happened
on the 10th, caused ten days TO be thrown
out of the current year-tbe day after
Thursday, Olt d, being declared Oct 10.
This alteration OF the style was immedi-
ately adopted IN all the Roman Catholic
countries of Europe. AMI even in England
an attempt, of which little notice has been
taken, was made to introduce ut two years
later. On the is b of March, l564-5 q bill
was read for the first time in the House Of
Lords entitled San 40: giving her Majesty
authority 10 alter and make new caleadsr
according to the calendars used In other
countries. 1t was read second time On
tide 18th of the same mouth, and then the
project was shelved for nearly two centur-
les. 1t was not till the year 1862, In the
reign of George IL, that the Gregorian
calendar was adopted in England, and By
that time 1t had become necessary to
drop eleven Gays. The Sd of September
was declared the 14th, so that the month
only contained nineteen days.

PhlIippina Welser, of lnnspruck. her
eyes were divine, it is said dark blue,
her hair golden chestnut, and the SKIN
so transparent that "the red wine could
be seen as it ran down the lovely
throat" In the photograph her beauti-
full face rises up like lovely flower,
out of high ruff, a superb jeweled
collar with pendant Jewels is bound
close about the high-mounting neck of
the rich dark velvet robe; the halr is
parted and rolled back from high,

nothing Greek about 1T, but is u clear,

lovely mouth and chin, and an express
ion of dignity, refinement, and gentle
ness. Perfect womanly loveliness char

woman who was the most beautiful OF
her day, aud whose romantic history
has inspired many poet and dramatiSt.
She was the daughter Of rich Augs-

from Innspruck, where philippine and
Ferdinand spent their long, happy mar

naturally very angry at this marriage,
but during one Oh his visits to Inns
pruck, the lovely weman came with her
two young boys and begged HIM to
forgive her. History tells how he had
only to look at Philippine to justify his
son. When Ferdinand died she lost her
best and most powerful friend. Her
mother-in-law was forever tauntlDg her.
