The Bad Lands, which from the name would seem
seem to be barren soil, are covered with strong,
healthy-looling grass, amply supplied with
water The wealth of the company in agricul-
tural lands is really marvellous. Mr. McCrea says
they have, in round numbers. 4O,O00iOO0
acres of unsold lands, OF this there are
Of good agricultural lands east OF
Bismarck, 100000 acres. between the
Little Missouri and Bismarck 4,500, 600 acres,
and in Oregon 1900, 900 acres or total Of first
class agricultural lands of 10000, 900 acres
Then the company has 10,000,000 acres of graz
lug land. The mountain lands are about a.
DOC. 600 acres, which may yield immense fortunes
when coal, iron and copper mines are actually
located He thinks this is to become the richest
and grandest railroad property in the world,
unless the road should be paralleled and
its existence crippled through competition.
While absent Mr. McCrea passed over the main
line from St Paul to Wallula Junction--W allu-
la junction to Portland, then to Taloma, then
took one of the steamers run by the oregon
Railway and Navigation Company to British
Columbia which he says are in every respect as
elegant and well provided as the steamers ply
ing on Long Island sound. The people who
are settling at the towns are largely Americans,
many of them il comfortable circumstances and
very enterprising and intelligent; and person is
amazed to see what has been accomplished in
the way of developing the country on the North.

A Discouraging Freight Exhibit.

The fifteen roads centering at indianapolis
last week received and forwarded but 13, 462
loaded cars against 17.847 the corresponding
week 1885, 1904 in 1882, and 49, BOG in 1881 In
fact, not for years has through business been
as light in August as this year. The falling off
has beer almost entirely in the east-bound
movement There seems to be no grain going
forward except to Toledo with sprinkling, or
here and there car, for Baltimore and Pniladel-
phia Even New England, which at this
season of the year usually derives its sup
plies from this section, is now drawing them
from Chicago, which fayors the statement that
the Chicago roads are not holding to rates. The
heavy tonnage of west bound business for Au-
gust excites comment, one reason therefor being
that so large per cent of it is carried by lines
which are not sticklers for rates. North and
south roads are doing fair business, earnings
showing up reasonably well, so nearly are
tariff rates adhered to. Local business is a lutte
slow. Indications are to an early improvement
Below is given the number of cars received and
forwarded at this point in the week ending at

The City Of Mexico is now enjoying the
privilege Of daily mail from the United States.
Itseems incredible that SO large a city should
have been SO long without this almost indis-
pensable convenience, whichis so common to the
cities Of America The daily express train over
the Central arrives every morning on time.
The time taken for newspapers to reach that
city from the United States is as follows: Four
days from Ell Pase, five days from San Antonio,
six days from Houston and Galveston seven
days from New Orleans, seven days from St.
Louis seven days from Chicago, eight days from
New York, and eight days from Boston The
newspaper Of the largest circulation along the

THE TWO COMMITTEES.

The two rival committees of the re.
publican party met IN St. Louis on
Tuesday of This week one presided
over by r. T. Van HON, of Kansas
City, and the other by Chauncey l
Filley, of St. Lonis.
No basis of formal union or com
promise was agreed upon, the Van
Horn committee rejecting all offers of
consolidation, Lut insisting that its
call for state convention at Sedalia
should stand, and that whatever differ
ences there might be in the party
might properly be settled there.
When the old committee adjourned
on Wednesday, ii was announced that
call would be issued to meet in con-
yention at Sedalia at the same time
designated by the Van Horn commit
tee. THIS virtually means a surrender
as separate organization, and SIN
cere effort to gain in the Van Horn
convention taat recognition and fra
ternlly refused outside OF it.
AS the call for the Sedalia convention
whether regular or irregular, IS broad
enough to include all who may be sent
as delegates. perhaps this IS the only
course left open to those to those who
do not wish further TO continue tie
farce Of double headed republican
party in the state At least, it will
simplify matters very much in those
counties where there are differences
over the question. Let the county
central committees now call their con-
ventl2ns to select delegates 10 the state
convention, and elect good men who
have the welfare OF the whole party at
heart, and the whole matter can De
easily adjusted 50 that the party of the
state will not present the absurd spec
tacie of a party already in the minority,
divided over the technicallties of its
own organization, without a chance or
hope for success 50 long as those di-
visions are perpetuated. We are for
harmony even at sacrifice, if posi-
bic.

THE VOTE FOR PRESIDENT.

A few weeks ago, when we asked
our readers TO send in their choice foC
next president, our only object was to
ascertain as near as possible who
might be the popular tayorite, pre-
ferred in this section.
Many persons seemed to think that
the vote was intended as an appeal to
their powers OF prediction as to who
would be the nominee and herce while

they had last, they will get SIS per
