RAILROAD CONFERENCE.

The three cities, Dawson, Alba
ny and Columbus, will meet in
consultation, through their respec-
tive committees, in the latter city,
on next Saturday. The object of
this conference is to decide and
agree upon some definite plan of
action in regard to building the
proposed line of railroad from
Columbus to Albany. Dawson
will be represented by Col. j. I'll.
Query, Major B. H. Hood and
DIR. W. G. Paschal. We learn that
a number of other towns along the
proposed route will also be repre-
sented in this conference. Cuth-
bert is now engaged in an effort to
induce the location of the road via
that city. We learn from the
Macon Telegraph that the citizens
of Cuthbert held mass-meeting
on last Friday afternoon at which
some red-hot speeches were made
with a view of eliciting some en-
thuslasm upon the subject Cuth-
bert is an earnest, hardworking
town and deserves success, but it
seems to us that she is entirely too
far off the line to have Ginger in
this pie" We do not believe that
it is possible to build a railroad
from Columbus to Albany unaided
by some other line of road, and to
undertake it, in our judgement,
would result i'll failure.

Death of Mr.. Jeptha Cannon

Mr.. Jeptha Cannon, a promi-
nent citizen of this county, died in
this city on last Monday night at
the residence of his son, Mr.. Geo.
r. Cannon, about 8 o'clock, p. m.
Mr.. Cannon had been in failing
health for more than a year, and
while he had been able to be up a
good portion of his time, his death
was not unexpected. He had oc-
cupied the position of county sur
veyor for number of years and
was filling that position when he
died. Mr.. Cannon was a good
citizen and will be sadly missed.
Besides large family connection
he leaves very many friends be-
hind who deeply mourn his loss.
Deceased was buried at Chicka-
sawhatchee on last Tuesday even
ing. To the bereaved family and
friends the Journal offers deep
sympathy.

While corn is small, it is not too
late with continued good rains to

pointed in their present anticipa-
tons Of good crop and plenty of
money.

We received note from Gen. Ba-
ker Tuesday evening stating why he
could not be in the city to attend the
ratification meeting. He had arranged
to 20 east with some friends who were
on the four o'clock train that afternoon,
besides he had an appointment at the
State Fair Wednesday which necessi-
tated his leaving before the meeting.
The officers and Directors of the
Minnesota Tract Society have decided
to remove their depository to Mime
apolis, and will do so next week. We
are very sorry to lose this establish
ment from Mankato, as the society
gives promise of growth unparalleled in
this section by any religious denomina-
ton. They will erect business house
in Minneapolis this fall or next spring.
Farmers can serve their interests
at present by not fastening their
threshing during this damp weather,
and before the grain has thoroughly
recovered from the sweat. Many stacks
that are wet by the rains will dry to
some extent if allowed to stand until
the cool dry weather of October has its
influence. Keep all wet wheat separ-
ate from the dry, thereby avoiding
tainting that which is well preserved.
-Atthe regular meeting of the Board
of Trade on Monday morning, but little
business was transacted, much time be-
ing devoted to discussion of different
topics. Major ]. H. Rose resigned his
position as member ON the committee
on exhibits for the New Orleans expo
sition, and the committee was recon-
stituted, and now stands: Messrs. Wat
tiers, Alberger, Craig, Pass and John
Klein. Mr.. W. T. Mills resigned from
| the same committee.
The committee appointed on the post
Office matter reported some progress
in the nature of correspondence, but
no definite arrangements have been
consummated.
Superintendent of Public Instruc-
ton Kiehle has issued circular to
school men of the state urging them to
assist in making Minnesota's Educa-
tional exhibit full and complete at the
Worlds exposition at New Orleans.
He has appointed all school superin-
tendents and heads of schools as an ad-
visory committee, who he expects will
work together in this enterprise. 1t is
his desire to have good showing of
school appliances, views of buildings,
portraits Of educators, catalogues, etc.
The Chicago & Northwestern Ry.
are selling tickets to those wishing to
attend the Exposition held in Chicago
from Sept. Sd to Oct. 18th, at rate OF
$16.65 each, for the round trip. They
also sell to those wishing to attend the
Exposition at Milwaukee, which is
held from Sept. 18th to Oct. 18th, at
rate of $3.50 each for the round trip.
These tickets are limited to about a
weeks time from date of sale, and
