The St. Cloud, Mankato + Austin II. II.
Surveyors.

The last survey of the St. G. NJ. & A.
railroad makes material change of the
line through the south half Of Meeker
county. They run to Cedar Mills, and
from that point along the west side of
Lake Minnebelle, to Litchfield. From
there they run direct to Forest City, and
from that place to Cold Springs, and
thence into St. Cloud. The surveying
party are now somewhere between Forest
City and Cold Springs.-Litchfeld News
Ledger, July ~.
We learn from Mr.. John Cooper that
the engineers moved on Monday from
Forest City to the east shore of Clearwater
Lake, in Forest Prairie township, Meeker
county, from which point they will run a
line to Cold Springs and afterwards to
Maine Prairie, continuing whichever of
the two lines may be finally decided upon
to St. Cloud. The survey has been made
from the Minnesota river to Clearwater
Lake.-St. Cloud Journal, July IL.
Capt. A. H. Reed of Glencoe was in
our city last Saturday to see how our citi
Zens feel regarding. the building of the
Austin, st. Cloud & Mankato road. He
thinks if proper encouragement is given,
the company can be induced to run
through OleuCOc auu tne tOWAs dlOuS tAc
Minnesota river instead of further west,
where it will injure all these towns. In
due time we shall know more definitely
what the intentions of the company are.
A survey will undoubtedly be made
through St. Peter before the road is built
We are sure that if the survey is made by
way of st. Peter the advantages of the
route and the amount of business it will
reach will promptly settle the ques-

The Great Northwest,

The great increase in travel to the
Northwest, has forced the Famous Al

magnificent Dining Cars, in which pas
sengers will be served meals second in
quality to no first-class hotel, for the
small sum of seventy five cents each.
The Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific

always maintained a reputation for Civ
ing travellers first-class meals on its Din

class of cars, it fills a want that the

very large share of the Northwestern
travel, and, although early in the season,
has commenced to sell tourists tickets to
the various pleasure resorts in a volume
sufficiently large to guarantee an immense

THE death of Maria Litta, Americas sweet
singer, will be a great loss to musical cir
Giles in this country. She died at Bloom
ington, ILL.,, of spinal menengetis, July
7th. She was pure and noble woman,
and her funeral had the largest attend
ance of any since Lincoln's. Those of US
who heard her sing at the Musical Festi-
val at Clear Lake last summer will never
forget either her singing or her songs.
A singer sang song so marvelously sweet,
That, hearing it, the flow RS and trees
Forgot the wOOing Of the breeze,
And bowed their heads and cast their blossoms
at her feet.
The angels heard the song so marvelously
sweet,
And coming at the close of day,
They bore the singer maid away
And babe her sing her song divine at Jesus
feet.

this fall. They are Massachusetts, New

Iowa, and Minnesota. They all vote in
November except Ohio, which votes in
October. These States all supported Gar

went for Hancock. The Republicans
must carry at least five out of the seven
states to give them good showing for
the Presidential battle If the Democrats
carry New York. Ohio, and New Jersey,
they will have good grounds for victory

Experience is a convincing teacher.
The jamestown Capital, which has until
recently deplored the disposition OF
numerous Dakota newspapers to critlcise
the acts of Governor Ordway, particular
Iy in regard to the organization of coun.
ties, has encountered grievance which
affects its own particular locality. The
neglect OF the governor to give to Foster
county its long overdue organization
moves the Capital to express itself in
terms most impressive and emphatic. a
few extracts will show that the Capital
has been compelled by the logic of events
to join the great majority. The Capital
says:
One OF the most important counties in
north Dakota is that of Foster, Of which
Darlington is the commercial and rail-
way center and natural county seat.
And yet this county is still unorganized,
and the thousands of people who live
throughout its breadth are forced to
come to Stutsman county to Dc business.
OF course, we have no reason to complain
of this fact, but We believe that an in.
justice is done ~ the citizens of Foster
county in thus Withholding organization.
The governor has been importuned to
organize the county, the names of honor
able and representative men have been
suggested to him as fitted to perform the
duties of county commissioners, the
need of organization has been pointed
out to him. and yet he has failed to do his
simple duty IN the matter, although,
we are informed, he promised to do so.
These complaints are but duplicate
OF the complaints which have emanated
from numerous other counties in Dakota
which were long denied the organization
to which they were entitled. Further
the jamestown paper says:
The Capital has no wish to become one
of the long list of newspapers in the ter
ritory which seem to delight in forever
finding fault with Gov. Ordway, and
attributing to his ever act q wrong mo.
tive; but certain facts have beer brought
to our knowledge within a few days
which made it appear that Gov.
| Ordway's reasons for thus neglecting his
duty are not just those which should in
| tiuence the chief executive of great
territory like Dakota.
After recltlng the alleged causes for
the delay in the organization of Foster
county, which involve the usual townsite
speculation, the Capital says:
| We have only to say that if the above
statement is true, Gov, Ordway deserves
to be at once relieved from the burdens
of his high Office which he thus prosti-
tutes. 1t may be to many small mat
ter, but if he is thus influenced in small
matters, he is only the more dangerous
In more important ones.
The Capital has placed itself on the
popular platform. Three.fourths of the
newspapers of Dakota believe that Ord.
way should be relieved from the burdens
OF Office and have been believing it for
some time past.
