Gen. W. s. Rosencranz, President
of the Chicago, st. Paul and North
ern Pacific Railroad. was in Madi-
son on Monday, the 9th inst. with
w. r. Chadesy, of New York, one
of the directors. These two gentle
men are going over the proposed line,
from Portage, southeast to the state
line, by carriage. They speak highly
of the country and say the road
will undoubtedly be completed in
four or five years. A meeting of
directors will be held at Chicago on
Wednesday to outline future oper-
ations. The capital stock of the
company is eleven millions. The
proposed line will run from Chicago
directly northwest to Superior City,
via Genoa, Geneva, Elkhorn, White
water, Jefferson, Lake Mills, Portage,
Necedah, Neillsville, Flambeau and
thence to Superior city. The work
will commence in Wisconsin as the
line is not blocked out yet in Illinois.
The Iowa County Democrat pub
lished at Mineral Point, is on the
right track in presenting to the in
habitants of that city the advantages
of home industry, and should be
backed by all enterprising citizens
for its laudable endeavors to be
useful to the community at large.
We can see no reason in paying
freights on produce sent to eastern
markets to feed operatives and then
paying freight on barreled pork,
lard, canned veg. -.;,,','.s ami canned
fruits when the 81 could be cult
waited here, canned here and the
surplus sent to more northern mar
kets. Neither can we see any profit
in shipping live hogs and cattle and
paying freight on off,l, hair, mud
and refuse, when the same could be
buthchered at home, packed at
home, and what was needed for
home consumption would yield a
handsome profit, and be sold at
less rates than it can be sent to
Chicago, dressed, and sent back
here for, and we should make a saw
ing of millions of dollars to the
farmers Of the northwest yearly on
freights alone. The matter of home
industry should be continually kept
before the people and that people
who earliest take hold of this matter
will reap the..most benefit, and will be
honored by their posterity as bene-
factors of the human race.-Ridge-
way Enterprise.

either OF the old ones now standing
with 4 view of having the one so
repaired serve as the main school
hailding of the city. They reason
that it is always cheaper in the long
run to put up a new building entire
than it is TO build an addition to an
old one. Owing to the ungainly APP
pearance and unsafe condition of
the Second ward building, any at
tempt to even repair it is out of the
question. The only thing that could
be done on that site would be to
tear down the old building and put
up a new one in its place. No mat
ter what amount of money is expen-
ded on the Seminary building, it
will be almost impossible to give it
pleasing modern appearance, and
any defects in this particular will
become more apparent as the years
roll around. 1t might be well to
ventilate this building and put in a
furnace TO heat it, and also COM
mence the work of erecting a new
structure which, when completed,
could be used as the main school
building of the city and would be
constructed upon a modern and
improved plan. The matter ought
to be thoroughly discussed, SO that
the best possible plan of improve
ment may be determined upon be-
fore work is commenced. The col
umns of The Democrat are open for
such discussion.
