NOT IN THE POOL.

Press reports, newspaper COM
ments, reported interviews with Su-
perintendent of Traffic Muir and
other evidence have led the public
to believe that the Northern Pacific
entered into the railroad pool re-
Gently formed at San Francisco. By
the terms of the pool rs it has been
understood by the public the North
ern Pacific and the Southern Pacific
were placed upon an equal footing as
far as the passenger and freight
traffic from San Francisco to their
respective eastern terminal was con-
cerned. It was also further agreed
that rates from Omaha to San Fran
cisco via Union Pacific and Central
Pacific and from st. Paul to Port
land via Northern Pacific should be
the same. Many thought that the
Northern Pacific had the worst of
the bargain, as the agreement with
the U. P. and c.. P. virtually shut
that road out from the San Francisco
trade. But it was held that as the
N. P. owned a line of steamers from
Portland to San Francisco it could in
a great measure overcome the odds
against it in the cheapness with
which it could handle freight from
its Portland terminus to the former
place.
But it seems, Notwithstanding all
these explanations which have been
carefully sent out, the Northern
Pacific is not in the pool at all-never
was in the pool and "kicked" loose
from it at the start. This as.
is made by the San
Chronicle, and is supported
by a line of reasoning which seems
unopened to successful attack, and by
evidence, which, if gen.
uine, cannot be disputed. The latter

THE 1

Inc recent election in Ohio wa
for governor and members of the leg
islature. There were also thre
amendments to the constitution vote,
upon. The first amendment providel
for the regulation of the liquor traffi'
by taxation or a system of licenses
The second provided for pro
hibition of liquor traffic ano
the third provided for what ar.
termed in that state intermediate
courts. The legislature will elect 8
successor to Pendleton Democrat.
The returns thus far indicate the
election of Judge Hoadley, Demo.
cratic candidate for governor, by a
majority of over twelve thousand,
and the election of a Democratic leg
is]ature. The latter insures the cleo.
ton Of a United States Senator to
succeed Pendleton. Mr. Pendleton
may succeed himself.
To appreciate the magnitude and
importance of the Democratic victory
in Ohio, it must be borne in mind
that since the civil war Ohio has
generally voted the Republican tick
ct. One exception may be noticed,
and that was when the Democrats
elected Allen, their candidate for
governor. by a very small majority q
few years ago. But since 1876 the
Republicans have carried their State
ticket without a break, though the
legislature was Democratic in 1879
and sent Pendletcn to the United
States Senate. Ia 1879 Foster, repub
lican, beat Ewing, democrat, for Gov
ernor by oyer 1900 major

With these figures before them the

'ontended that the great Democratic
which unseated so many Re-
publican Governors a year ago had
pent its force and that the "secend
ober thought" of the masses would
ssert itself and the Republican ma
in Ohio would not be cut
own. But the reverse seems to be
ne case. The or lat uprising of a
ear ago was but the beginning of

'ned themselves upon them and

THE FRONTIER WOMEN

Enthusiastic Admiration for the Sex
in the Great Wild West.
From the Boston Herald.
Western women are injured in the
last way in which woman has been
spoiled-by too much attention. As you
proceed toward the unfenced prairie the
west becomes more and more the para
disc OF women. Almost all distinctions
are personal, and it is only il few of
the cities that social heirarchies have
begun to form. Indeed the queen of one
of the great railway municipalities of the
northwest was herself servant and is
still a servant and is 1t ashamed of it.
throughout the villages it is
thought a social distinction to
wait upon the table we'll. In
fact, in the frontier cities the mattresses
at the hotels are persons of no slight
consequence. A request for cup Of COT
is often met with the rejoinder: "Will
you have it now or will You wait till YOU
get it?"-a joke that however stale, en-
joys great prosperity with all except
one of its hearers. Every thrifty wait
ress is indeed real estate magnate.
She has her three claims-homestead,
pre- emption and free, which. when
proved up, give her kingdom as large
as many an old German state. The ma
jority Of the girls Of the northwest are,
however, schoolmistresses. To have been
a schoolmistress is there regarded as a
title of nobility, though the order is so
large there is nothing irvidious about
it. The diverse fountains from
which the male and fe-
male aristocracies of the frontier spring
are remarkable. Sober barteaders con-
stitute the former, schoolmistresses the
latter. "Did you not keep bar on the
Jim river Or the Cheyennep is a safe
question to ask any local millionaire who
is assuming too much of the air Of the
Bourbon or the Hapsburg. But the
hundreds of mettlesome schoolmistres-
ses, who in spring and autumn gather
their little focks together in the island
huts that dot the waving fields of grass
and wheat-no state could have q better
foundation for it's intellect and morality
In the summer the girls are engaged
gathering the harvest, for which they are
paid So a day or more. In the wi 1ter

The Speed of Yachts.

''There is something beyond calcula-
ton in the speed of yachts" said one Of
John Roach's experts, in talking about
Vanderbi]t's projected vessel. 'Two
boats may be built simultaneously from
the same model, with every effort to
make them precise duplicates as to
shape and machinery, and yet one will
prove faster than the other. Why this
is 80 no, man can tell. The steamer,
Mary Powell has for fifteen years been
the swiftest oa the Hudson river. Dur.
ing all that time she has never been
beaten. Time and again an exact COIN
terpart has been built, with everything
copied to a hair, as nearly as the best
none Of these have turned out as good
unrivalled speediness is valuable ad-
can see The object in trying to build a
second Mary Powell. Experience has
been the same with yachtsmen. They
order copies of the swiftest craft, or COM
bine the supposed good points of several
and nine times out of ten they are dis
appointed in the result. Jay Gould did
not particularly care for great swiftness,
and is not crestfallen because his yacht
is easily beaten. He did not contem late
racing, but safe and luxurious sea trips.
It is different with Vanderbilt; besides
all possible conveuiences, he insists on
speed. Wheteer he will get it or not re-

that he must trust to luck. It is pos

soon as the machinery is in, SO that the
boat need not be finished up in case il
fails to cut the water satisfactorily. In that
case it would probably be devoted to
other uses, AMI another one constructed
