TRANSPORTATION NOTES.

RensOrta0 Division Headquarters Of Chi
Gage Northeastern to Tracy.
The division headquarters of the Chi
cago & Northwestern railway is about to
be removed from Sleepy Eye to Tracy,
MINI. The erection OF the necessary
buildings here is being prosecuted with
vigor. A substantial stone and brick round
house, with stalls for twenty-four locomo-
tiyes, is almost finished. The large machine
shop, also of brick, is approaching COM
pIetion. The immense chimney is up,
and FIRE, to test the draft, was built a
few days ago. The chimney is eighty
feet high and eight feet across the base.
Coal sheds, turn table and side tracks
are well advanced towards compile
ton. Tracy will soon enjoy
the prosperity incident to such a valuable
ACQUISITION, and become the recognized
gateway to the Black Hills. The division
has heretofore been located at New Ulm
and Sleepy Eye, but temporarily frame
structures only were put up. A wagon
load of Chicago, Burlington q Quincy Of
fcials passed through Tracy few days
ago, bound for Redwood Falls. They came
overland from Worthington, their purpose
being to carefully examine the country,
and to locate an extension northward from
Worthington. Tracy will undoubtedly be
made the crossing point of the extension.
This town is absolutely certain to become
an important railroad centre.

THE TRANsGRESSORS.

Arraigned Before the Municipal Court

r. g. Dunn 6 Co.'S, Comments On Trade
Reports and Indications of the Past
Week.
New YORK, Sept. 28.-R. G. Dunn & Co.,
of the Mercantile agency, report tn Q
marked events past week and chiefly those
relating to important failures in the
clothing trade which have occurred in
New York city. These misfortunes can
hardly be interpreted as indicating an un-
healthy state of trade generally, because
they are all more or. less traceable to de-
partures from business principles, the
result of outside speculation and attempts
to bolster up credits by interchange of
paper long after the supposed capital
employed had disappeared or been divert
ed to outside channels. The regular bust
ness Of the city has been healthy. Sales
of dry goods have been large, the;sabsorp-
ton of stock indicating first rate retail
demand throughout the country. Some
large houses report their sales as being
very nearly equal to that of year ago,
while the losses by bad debts, aside from
those arising out of recent failures
are remarkably small. Money continues
dOuAuao1' AitAouSu cSuuuouCS u6S OoSA
to some extent shaken by the recent fail
ures the general outlook is not unfavor
able. Grain markets have been active
without any wide fluctuations, and of late
there has been increased demand for ex
port. In pork and provisions the market
is unsettled, but better feeling prevails
and prices as rule are somewhat higher
In cotton there is moderate amount Of
business doing with slight fluctuations
In petroleum there is fair amount Of
business doing, and the tendency of prices
is upward. For freights there is greater
inquiry for grain tonnage, which has made
the rates better in that description. Petro-
leum freights are good. In The iron trade
transactions are light with prices IN
changed. The groceries trade is fairly &C
tive in most lines. Raw and refined su-
gars are improving in prices, and holders
are m ore confident.

The Platform adapted by the Democratic

The Platform Ad.ptea by the Democratic
State COnrentiOn, .fsegHst 3, 1855.
We, the Democracy of Minnesota, in
convention assembled, reaffirm our devo-
ton to the e-honored maxims of the
Democratic party, that that government is
best which governs least; which leaves the
citizen in the enjoyment of the greatest
personal liberty consistent with the rights
of others and the public welfare; and while
it affords full protection to life and prop
erty, allows the creeds, business and Gus
toms of the people to remain unfettered
by sumptuary laws, class legislation and
extortionate monopolies.
First-That every species OF taxation
LEVIED upon the many for the profit of the
few, creating monopolies and producing
revenue in excess of the wants of the
government, economically administered.
is unjust, tyrannical and dangerous.
Sound policy requires that the business of
people should be free from oppressive
duties and vexatious restraints, and that all
legislation in reference thereto should be
impartial in its objects and equal in its
burdens. We, therefore, favor such a
thorough revision of the present tariff
laws as will remedy existing evils and re-
suit in the establishment of tariff for
revenue only, as the permanent CONNER
cial policy of this country.
Second-That constitutions are made to
protect the minority of the people against
the encroachments Of the majority; that
no proposition for change of or amend
ment to the organic law of the state should
be entertained or submitted to vote of
the people, which, if adopted by the ma
jority, would prevent the minority from
exercising their inherent and inalienable
rights. That we consider the enactment
of sumptuary and prohibitory laws sub
version of the rights of the people and that
we are unslterably opposed to them.
Third-That we appreciate the impor
lance of liberal appropriations for the i'm
provement of the Mississippi river; but,
inasmuch as the river and harbor bill has,
under Republican administrations, become
an omnibus for the corrupt combina-
tions by members of congress, we would
favor the adoption of an amendment to
the constitution comforting upon the pres
ident the power to veto such provisions of
the river and harbor bills and all other ap-
preparation bills, as, in his Judgment are
unwarranted.
Four5h-That the patent laws should be
revised, TO the end that the innocent pur-
chasers of manufactured articles, using
the sane in good faith, shall be protected
from harrassing and oppressive suits for
the infringement of patent rights.
RESOLVED, That the maintenance in pow
or of any political party for an undue
length of time tends to an assumption of
power inconsistent with democratic prin-
ciples of government, and is dangerous to
the rights of the people, and we therefore
urge upon the electors of this state, they
carefully investigate the existing state of
things with reference to change of state
administration, in their own interests.

Daughter a rainst Father.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 25.-In the case of
trespass in the action brought by Isa-
bella Moqarvey against her father, the
notorious DR.. Buchanan, in which he is
charged with taking 800 from her, JUS
tice Parker to-day decided in favor of the
release of the defendant on the grounds
that the evidence disproved the plaintiffs
affidavits. It seems when the doctor was
sent to prison on the bogus diploma case,
he left everything at the farm near Had
donfeld in charge of his daughter. When
the doctor returned, according to his
statement, he was rather coldly received,
and upon his removing some of his per-
sonal property he was arrested on the
charge of trespass, preferred against
him by his daughter. The decision re-
covers to the doctor several thousand dol
lars worth Of personal property which he
left with his daughter.
