we Hatch P0rtH.

The Rufus Hatch excursion party left
Fargo at $50 this morning for the west.
An extra car was attached to the train, and
large number of Fargoites invited to
accompany the excursion to the Dalrymyle
farm near Caselton. The invitations we're
accepted to the number of about forty.
The train stopped at Dalrymple, where
the party unloaded and took a drive of
several miles through the farm, after which
they returned to the train. On the drive
the party saw large number of self
binding reapers at work, and twenty steam
threshers turning out the golden grain.
While one of the excursionists from Scot
land mounted the box and fed the machine
like an old hand. On the return train
speeches were made by several members
of the party and responded
to by Mr.. Dalrymple and Colonel Donan.
All then mounted the train and were taken
to Casselton, where the Fargo people said
good bye to the pleasant acquaintance
they had formed. The excursion went on.

The st. Paul & Duluth road headquarters
received dispatch yesterday saying there
had been a great storm at Agate bay. The
storm occurred at 3 o'clock yesterday
morning. The dredge boat was sunk in
the slip, the tug Ella Stone had her side
stove in and two scows went ashore. The
authorities telegraphed that the Stewart

| if she did.
Helena Independent, 1.-THE gap be-
tween the eastern and western divisions of
| the Northern Pacific is closing rapidly,
and 1T will not be many days before the
greatest east and west railroad in America
will be completed. Last night the track
from the east had advanced to point
within about eighty miles of the mouth of
Little Blackfoot (the point at which a
junction will be formed with the Utah &
Northern) while the track from the west
was within less than twenty miles of the
same point. 1t is safe to estimate that the
gap is now less than twenty-five miles in
| extent, and that with ordinary good luck
the two ends will meet next Tuesday or
Wednesday. 1t is not probable, however,
that through trains will commence running
before the 1st of September.
The Philadelphia & Reading will begin
at once to manufacture rails sixty feet in
length instead of thirty feet as heretofore
The rails will also be increased in weight
from sixty eight to seventy pounds per
yard. The decreased number of points to
care for will lessen expenses. The weight
of passenger car has been increased from
$4,000 to $4,000 pounds, and the parlor
cars now used weigh $4,000 pounds. The
weight of the freight and coal cars has
been so far increased as to more than
double their former carrying capacity.
while the weight of locomotives has been
increased in proportion. The best railroad
experts in the country are said to predict
the most satisfactory results from the
longer and heavier rails.

THE WILLARD PARTY,

Arrangements for the Reception in st.
Paula Meeting Called for this Morn
ing.
A meeting of the committee on recep-
ton and programme to arrange for the
entertainment of the Northern Pacific rail-
way excursion party at the time of the
completion of the road, is called for $50
o'clock this morning, at the mayors Office,
and in view of the fact that
the success of the undertaking will
depend wholly upon the zeal and enter
prise now shown full attendance and
spirited session is demanded. In addition
to the members of the committee there
will be in attendance this morning a num-
Der of representative citizens from Mime
apolis who propose making,the celebration
joint affair between the two cities. In
order to urge upon the members of the
comittee the necessity of constant attend
ance and prompt and earnest action at
the meetings the mayor on yesterday sent
out number of circulars to the gentle
men composing the committee of which
the following is a copy:
The completion of the Northern Pacific
railroad marks a new era in the history OF
| our city, and it is meet and proper
| that the event should be celebrated
in manner commensurate with its i'm
portance in commercial point of view.
st. Paul is the eastern terminus of this
great thoroughfare, and this, taken in con
nection with the fact that the gentlemen
composing the excursion are the repre-.
sentatives of our own and various foreign
countries holding the highest places po-
litically, financially and socially, fully
warrants US in making this celebration
the most complete and satisfactory thai
has ever taken place in our city.
You will notice that your name appears
on the committee, and it is earnestly urged
that you will attend each meeting of your
committee as you are notified, even though
it may occasion some personal inconven
fence, as it is only by the prompt CO.
operation of every gentleman named thai
we will be enabled to make this celebration
a grand success and an event that not ONLY
our own citizens but our distinguished
guests will remember with pride and pleas
ure. By order of the executive committee

The Crop Prospects.

The yield of grain is surprising even to
those most familiar with its culture. Not
only wheat but oats are yielding far be-
You'd the expectations of farmers. Cap
tain Hunt, who has extensive farms in the
vicinity of Blanchard on the Casselton
branch of the Manitoba railway, said wheat
in that region will average at
least seventeen bushels to the
acre, while many fields yield far more.
At the Dalrymple farm the yield will be
about the same. The average will be
higher when rolling ground is reached in a
westward direction, though the difference
will not be more than two or three bushels
an acre.

Is it not about time that state Iegisla-
lures abolished their absurd and heathen-
ish laws which punish as crime the wear
ing of male apparel by women? The
GLOBE yesterday contained an account of
the arrest of woman in Chicago who has
for eight years worn masculine attire, and
was originally driven to that expedient as
means of obtaining an honest livelihood.
She was not vicious, and in her male habili-
ments deported herself with becoming
decorum, yet she was sentenced to the
Workhouse for long term, and treated as
criminal. A true woman will never I'M
sex herself even so far as to don the attire
of the opposite sex, but there are often
cases IN which necessity compels virtuous
women to disguise themselves for time

them as women but accorded to them
when they appear as men. To treat such
unfortunates as criminals is a crime
against civilization, and an officer who

poses-and the judge who passes the
sentence of an outrageous and barbarous
law, are both destitute of all humane in

A sw1N1sH local committee at Minneapo-

pleasure of the visit of the scientists to

ty much everything was abandoned, our
citizens having given up the arrival of the
expected visitors and gone to their homes
or business pursuits. The GLOBE does not

The Republicans of Ohio seem deter
mined to profit by the plumbers and boss
ism of the Democracy this year. The
Republican conventional Hamilton county,
just assembled at Cincinnati, in the nom
ination of candidates has thrown large
sop to the Germans, both in legislative
nominations and for county officers. 1t
was shrewd policy to nominate the Hon.
Thomas L. Young fer auditor. He is very
popular among the Germans and liquor
dealers, and not Objectionable to others.
The campaign increases in earnestness and
activity. The Republicans assail Hoadly
with great bitterness, simply because they
fear him.

CHICAGO, Aug. 2O.-United States Sena-
tor Conger, who arrived in the city yester-
day, in an interview with reporter said
he had been so far away from the people
and the newspapers of late that he had
really not been able to keep up with what
was going on. Before leaving home,
however, he had noticed one thing, and
that was growing feeling in favor of
Arthur, who had assumed the presidency
under very embarrassing circumstances,
bat who had administered the duties of his
Office with a degree of prudence and good
judgment that seemed to commend him to
the people generally. Whether he would
be candidate in 1884 the senator said he
did not know, but rather intimated the be-
lief that if he were, and his administra-
lar favor, he would be
candidate of great strength. This from
one of the most prominent leaders of the
Blaine movement in 1880, and one of its
strongest cham pions in the Chicago con-
vention, was rather significant. AS for
Blaine, Senator Conger merely remarked
it was generally supposed he was not in
the race. The Michigan Democrats, he
said, were rather devoted to the old ticket.
Tilden and Hendricks. The senator felt
confident that in spite of the recent re-
verses Michigan would elect Republican
governor, redeem the congressional dis
tricts they lost last fall, and elect Re-
publican legislature. Speaking of the
presidential campaign he said he had no
doubt the tariff would constitute the prin
cipal issue. The Republicans would pre-
sent their record in congress. W tn
the ia iff notifications thev
had brought about, as their
claim to Pc ular support on that issue,
while the d mocrats would probably strad-
die the question, as they were doing this
year in Ohio.

DEMOCRATIC tFEUD IN CINCINNATI

DEMOCRATIC tF,EUD IN CINCINNATI.
Democratic bossism has achieved a local
triumph in Cincinnati through the alleged
manipulations of John R. Mclean, editor
of The Enquirer, and the ''bar'r" of the rich
Bookwalter, ex-candidate for governor.
The Enquirer airs its democracy by op-
posing Hoadly, as it long has opposed
Pendleton. The Democrats of Hamilton
county held their county nominating con-
vention in Cincinnati last Saturday. Nc
Lean was the ruling spirit, controlled the
convention and had everything his own
way. The democracy of the county out
side of Cincinnati, repudiate the bossism
of Mclean. The delegates from county
townships left the convention in its early
stages, because they would not counter
ance, even by their presence, the rule of
the Enquirer's editor. The ticket formed
by McLean's efforts is not popular one.
1t is said to be particularly distasteful to
the Germans.
The three senatorial and the ten repre-
sentative candidates for the legislature
will, if elected, vote against Pendleton's
reelection to the senate. Thus Mr.. Nc
Lean has his personal revenge, but he
gains it at the expense of the Democratic
party. 1t is not believed that Hoadly.
as has been expected, will run
behind the ticket in Hamilton
county, but it is not believed McLean's
ticket will be elected. Many Democrats
declare, while they will quietly vote for
the ticket, they will not work for it, while
others in their wrath say they will vote the
Republican ticket.
This feud in Cincinnati may imperil the
success of the state ticket, which hereto.
fore has been thought to be we'll assured,
and if SO, McLean's bossism will hence
forth be at heavy discount. Political
bossism is vicious element. 1t may for
time ride the topmost wave, buS is sure
to breed factions, and in the end wreck the
party it essays to control. The boss-ruled
Republican party in New York is a forci-
BILE illustration of the truth of this state
ment. It will be we'll for Boss Mclean to
consider whittier his course is tending. He
Yields boomerang that will be sure to
come back with fatal effect upon its pro-
jector.

especially adapts him for the head of this

ed that Mr.. W. Il. Dixon, the present
Northwestern ticket agent of the Milwau-
kee & st. Paul road has been rendered the
position of assistant general passenger
agent of the N. P. Mr.. Dixon went to
Milwaukee yesterday, presumably to ad-
wise with his company relative to the pro-
posed change, but his absence from the
city prevented confirmation of the report.
At the Northern Pacific no information
was vouchsafed in reference to either
matter.

RAIL AND RIVER,

Status of the Grand Trunk Rditicdy System.
Sir Henry Tyler, president of the Grand
Trunk railway, who arrived at Ottawa
the other day, in an interview with the
acting minister of railways, denies the
rumor to the effect that he visited Canada
for the purpose of renewing negotiations
with view of bringing about an amalga-
nation between the Grand Trunk and
Canadian Pacific railways. He states,
however, that friendly arrangement
between these two great rival corporations
would have been arrived at before were it
not for the fact that it was impossible
for the Canadian Pacific to consummate
previously made promises. In the future
Sir Henry believes that the Grand
Trunk will connect with the Northern Pa
cifc by the way of Sault Ste. Marie, but in
the meantime the scheme for making an
entrance into Winnipeg will not be pushed
forward. 1t is understood that the CO.
operation of the Western railway and the
lines by the way of Milwaukee will satisfy
the Grand Trunk authorities for the
present. Not the least among the impor-
tant acquisitions the Grand Trunk railway
has made since 1876 was the securing of a
direct route between Ottawa and Montreal,
via the Canada Atlantic railway; another
important move was the leasing of the
North Shore railway for fifty years, virtu-
ally giving it control of the traffic between
Montreal and Quebec; but the latter and
perhaps the most important transaction
was the purchase of the Great Western
railway, rival corporation. Other al
liances, of an equally important
character, have taken place at the west
end of the line. The company controls a
line to Milwaukee, another to Chicago, and
a second line to Chicago will shortly be
constructed, via the through route between
Chicago and New York, over the Great
Western division. By means of an ALI
ance with the Baltimore and Ohio, the
Wabash and the Delaware, Lackawanna
and Western railways, another line to Tole
do will be completed in short time. The
company have also entered into agree
ments with the new Delaware, Lackawannf
and Western company, and with the Wes
Shore road, thus securing the new outlets
to New York by way of Buffalo. Although
the Grand Trunk has at all times main
tanned friendly spirit toward the Wander
bilt system, still the acquisitions anG
working arrangements above referred tt
will make it independent of that magnate
