The San Francisco Chronicle ad-
yises the farmers to build their own
railroad and thus deliver them
selves from the clutch of the mo,
nopolists. This would be an ex-
cellent way to release themselves
from the shackles of monopoly, but
when it comes to the money propo'
sition the tight listed California ag-
riculturalist is not the man OF
action. He had much rather stag
ger along to the end OF his life

How q Lie Travelled.

Canton Star: Though We don't be.
lieve in fighting battles over again on
paper, yet a glance at the cause of the
defeat of the new constitution in this
county is certainly in order. In the first
place that instrument was slandered on
the stump and libeled in print jast on
the eve OF election without giving time
to Its friends to vindicate it before the
people. As Davy Crockett said "a lie
will travel from Maine to Texas before
truth can get its boots on" This fact
was taken advantage of by the opposi-
tion with characteristic shrewdness and
with great effect. Had there been
another weeks time to hnnt
down those miserable roorbschs,
the result would have been very differ
ent. As it was the Bismarck interest
triumphed, and the cause OF southern
Dakota. as usual, was defeated. Thus

QUITTING THE POO.

The Milwaukee's Withdrawal from the
Iowa Combination.
Chicago, Nov. 1.-THE formal notice
given by the Chicago, Milwaukee & St.
Paul road of its Intention to withdraw
from the Omaha pool after the expira.
tion of thirty days has proved nearer
approach to real excitement than any
event in railroad circles here for mum.
ber of years. Whatever cuts have oc.
Cured betwee the western roads, Oma.
ha rates have been strictly maintained
for the past twelve years. and break in
Omaha rates has been looked upon as
involving the entire southwestern busi-
ness. The present move of the st. Paul
road is deemed by competing lines an
open gauge of battle, and that an un.
compromising fight will follow unless
the demands 1t will likely make ON the
other four roads are acceded to. The
published statement made here as to ex-
cess OF its Omaha earnings gro rs out of
the fact that it has carried the bulk of
the western cattle coming to this mar
ket under an agreement made by
q combination of western cattle
men to favor this line, after an attempt
had been made to secure better terms
IRON the pool in the possible hopes that
this would result in rupture between
the roads. 1t is stated the combination
OF cattle men offered to put up an enor.
nous money guarantee to send all their
cattle over one line provided 1t would
give the combination special rate. Hav-
ing failed to make terms with one line
or with the pool proper, the other course
was pursued of shipping cattle over a
single line. Owing to the increase in its
revenues from this source is understood
to grow the demand of the st. Paul for
an increase of percentage, and its
refusal to turn into the pool
$4,000 surplus. Officials of the compel.
ing roads decline to make any
statement this morning beyond the
declaration that a truce will certainly
be maintained for thirty days, and that q
meeting will be held in the meantime
when an effort will be made to avert an
open fight. Said one prominent official
"Of course, if we can't agree on terms,
We will have to fight it out. and every.
| body knows what that means"
The Chicago, Milwaukee and ST. Paul
Railroad company this afternoon paid
over to the Iowa pool the $4,000 dis
puted surplus earnings and $1,000 addi
tional, which squares the pool account
to date. The officials of the company
however, still adhere to their purpose t
leave the pool, and under the circum
stances war of rates after the lapse O
thirty days Is deemed inevitable.

matter who will move for us? The
