IT appears that after all the furry about
railroad failures in 1884, there were fewer
roads bankrupted in that year than in 1888
that is less mileage was sold under fore
closure, the proportion being fifteen roads
and $50 miles last year, to eighteen roads
and $50 miles in 1888. Forty-three cor
porations went into the hands of receivers
in SS4, but in every case the condition Of
affairs was matter of open knowledge be-
fore the year began, and the fact fully re-
allied as to what must occur in time. In
1884 the most of the new railroad tracks
laid were, according to the Raii1ray Age,
extensions or branches Of old trunk lines,
the 1000 miles of new track being distrib-
uted among 1876 different lines, which gives
an average of but twenty-four miles per
road In 1884 it appears many new roads
we're projected or actually begun, the in
vestment being induced by lownes5 of sup
plies and labor The New York Tribune
believes that "as soon as feeling of con-
idence reappears in investment circles the
building of railways will be renewed with
considerable rapidity "a forecast with a
safe contingent; safer indeed, than il is
sagacious.

THE Reagan interstate commerce bill
has passed one house of Congress. 1t is
full of fallacies, errors of economy and
violations of vital commercial principles
These are patent. 1t is not needed that
they be now discussed. There are pro-
visions in the bill which will, should it
become law, operate to check railroad
extension in some cases, and cripple, if
not stop, railroad operation in others. 1t
is an experiment which is full of error and
injustice. The supposed intentions, in the
main, may not be complained Of, since no
one objects to wrongdoing being checked,
but the means adopted to this end should
not be such as to kill off legitimate enter
prise or prevent fair return for service
performed, and .ust that the Reagan bill,
as we understand ii, viii DO in It's undis-
eliminating exactions.

SPELLING REFORM.

There is no influence in the land that
can sooner work language reforms than
the press Of the country 1t is unanimous,
practically, in agreement that our system
of spelling is, in many respects, very OBJ
iectionabie, but it lacks unanimity OF ac-
ton IN inaugurating the needed reform.
No one newspaper is willing, or should be
expected to undertake the initial task
alone. There is one paper-a leading
Chicago iournal-that has, however, adj
hered for some years to the resolution to
spell programme program, and catalogue
cataiog How many others viii join it
now, and add to the list hay for have, laf
for laugh, and 50 on, for, say dozen or two
of other words If score Cd leading
newspapers would agree upon the subject
and act, the public would soon become IA
miliarized with the change and accept it.
We have by gradual steps, reformed our
spelling greatly; as witness the changes in
fiber, gage honor, traveller, etc, and the
dropping of many silent letters. Now,
this process can be given new mo-
mentum by concert of action on
the part of the press, is becom-
ing every day more and more apparent
that the philologists ana the people are
perfectly willing, nay, anxious to drop 81
lent letters from our system of spelling.
Their retention, says Dr. Whitney in his
Life and Growth of Language" has re
suited in mutilation of the radical part OF
words in the Romantic languages. Lin
guistic growth is never checked. 1t is a
slow process, but capable of being safely,
beneficially and greatly FASTENED by union

TIE Commissioners Of the New Orleans
Exposition have made an attempt to serve
God and the devil. Between those urging
that the exhibition be opened on Sundays
and those who insist upon its closure on
that day, the Board has squatted on the
fence, and there makes a most amusing
public exhibition Of itself, They have de-
cided to open the halls Of the Exposition
on Sundays, hut not to run the machinery,
and exh;bitors who wish may cover their
goods from tne gaze of the visitors. All
the same the Commissioners will take the
usual shekel at the door; or, as a Cincin-

w. 8. Tinlernlan.

William S. TimCrman, the secretary
and manager of the st. Paul Elevator and
Warehouse company, thought the grading
of the commission was cutting down of
the standard from So. In his opinion No. 1
hard should be fancy grade. He did not
like the specifications for No. Northern.
That grade should not be let down under
fifty-eight pounds, except upon eXamina-
ton of the crop. We have had no wheat
in five years that wonld fill the requirements
of the commission for No. 1 Northern.
The grading of No. 2 was well enough, but
perhaps there is too little DIFF
ference between Nos. 1 and g
MI Timerman liked the plan of
applying the name Northern to our
wheat, as it individualized, as it were, the
wheat production of the Northwest. No. 3
was all right as fixed by the board; when
there was good season we have very little
of it. Rejected, too, was well enough; it
covered multitude of sins. But the higher
grades ought to have been kept up and a
ty-eight-pound standard maintained until
the necessity of a lower weight was mani
tested. In the year 1866 or '67 our wheat
looked nice and bright in grain, bnt it ran
down to about fifty-Seven pounds. 1t
WOulull Still i'll -lllW DuG IL DdSSGu
in Chicago. The answer to the whole ques-
ton was that wheat would sell on its merits
anywhere. The commission was composed
Of good men and had, no doubt, labored
conscientiously in the grading of the
grain. But he feared the snag
they had struck was in placing too few
grades, and the standard for the higher
grades was fixed too low. The farmer who
raised grain running eighty-fve or ninety
five would very naturally feel that his wheat
should not be put down as No. at much
lower weight, and no doubt his wheat grad
ing so much higher would bring him little
more on the bushel than the market price
of No. 1. The outcome of the matter
would be that special grades, above the
commissions highest standard, would be
established. He didn't believe in dockage
no man can say what the proper dockage
should be. The reference to dockage was
correct.

Bound TO Get Married.

Browns Valley Reporter: A young
couple stepped into the Office of the clerk OF
the court last Thursday, after having
walked from some distance south of Boards
ley, and informed that official that they de-
sired to get married and wanted him to
issue to them the necessary license. Upon
propounding the usual questions in such
case provided, tine clerk Informed the rather
tired but happy-looking couple that he
couldn't issue the much desired document
as it was contrary to the statutes Of this
state, inasmtch as the would-be bride was
a resident of Big Stone county, and that
the license would have to be procured of
the clerk of court of that county. AS Or
tonyille is forty miles from here they were
for time about paralyzed, as they wished
very much to have the nuptial knot tied
that day. The tender-hearted clerk not
not only pitied the anxious couple but
cursed the law that cheated him out of two
large silver dollars that the bridegroom-to-
be nervously jingled in his hand. The
clerk happened to remember that no license
is required to get married in Dakota and
he so Informed the couple. 1t is needless
to remark that the couple lost no time in
crossing the line, and soon found a justice
who performed the ceremony. In the even
ing they passed through town on their way
back, looking and acting as happy as two
innocent humble bees. It transpired later
that the pair had eloped.

Remarkable Divorce Case.

Spec1al TO the GlODe
GALENA, ILL.,, June 3.-Iu April, 1888,
Miss Mary Lilly, respectable young lady,
daughter of Peter Lilly of this city, was
married to one John Mcmahon, also of Ga
lena, after an engagement OF upward OF
three years, the young lady refusing to
marry her lover until he had provided for
her a home. The latter, it is alleged, as
sured Miss Lilly that he had COM
piled with the conditions and was ready to
take his bride to home of her own when
ever the marriage ceremony was performed.
The nuptial event came off with consider
able pomp at the Lilly residence. Immedi-
ately the young lady informed the groom
that she was ready to go at once to the nest
he had prepared for her, whereupOn he
coolly stated that he had resorted to a sub
terfuge to get her, and that he had secured no
home of his own and that they-himsef and
bride-must go to boarding. The newly
made wife, incensed at the treatment she
had received, refused absolutely to live with
Mcmahon until he procured home for her
as promised, and the latter left her within
an hour after his marriage, since which
time the pair have not cohabited together.
For the purpose of dissOlving the marriage
tie. Mrs. McMahon brought suit in
the circuit court of 10 Davies
county, and was to-day granted
a divorce by Judge William Brown, the de-
PENDANT failing to appear. His honor in
deciding the matter said that the case was
one of the most remarkable ever brought
before him, and that the circumstances
were such, as testified to by the plaintiff,
combined with the fact that the husband
had failed to appear. that he could not
withhold divorce from Mrs. McAIahon
with the right to resume her maiden name.

Latest About Langtry.

London Letter in Philadelphia Telegraph.
The rumors current as to her ultimately
settling in the states, Mrs. Langtry AYERS to
be incorrect. She likes America, but knows
very little of the American people, except
in her professional capacity. She added
that she had great kindness shown her i'll
the states, but not more than she expert
enced in England. All her associations are
connected with this country, and all her
friends live here. So, all things considered
she could not think of living over the water
Mrs. Langtry says that the frst-class Amer
lean papers receive her well, but many
scurrilous journals gave her much annoy
ance. Probably a proper appreciation of
Mrs. Langtry's beauty and talents would
considerably bias the lady's mind in de-
Gliding which journals were ''first-clasS' and
which otherwise. In California one jour
nal grossly libeled her, and she even went
so far as to consult her lawyer about COM
mencing an action against the editor, but
the lawyer (wiSe NAM advised her to do
nothing, and since then she has never
troubled herself about the many gross at
lacks made upon her. Mrs. Langtry rather
objects to the ''tone' Of the American
press as whole, although she admits that
there are plenty of scurrilous journals here
capable of saying as many naughty things
about her as any in America. In reply to
an inquiry as to whether she intended to
continue upon the stage, Mrs. Langtry
said: ''Most certainly. I am devoted to
it, and encouraged to- continue because l
feel that [ am advancing in my art"

HI, Minneapolis,

When the report reached Minneapolis it
found the offices of elevator and commits
sion men alike closed and the occupants
scattered over the city, difficult to find. A
well-known commission man, found at the
West hotel, said:
There's little use in showing the report
to commission men, as it matters not to
them an iota, as they get their commissions,
grades or no grades. Elevator men and
farmers are the ones principally interested,
and L can see nothing, from cursory
glance that will not be approved by them
in general way"
Quite number of interested dealers were
seen by GLOBE reporters, but most of them
declined to go into print without more
thorough study and knowledge of the points
of the report than could be gotten by a
hasty reading, but the interest they took in
it seemed not at all commensurate with its
Importance.

He kicked the Wrong hog.

A squad of the notorious Rice street gang
was yesterday taught wholesome lesson.
In the afternoon three of them were stand
ing ON the corner of College avenue and
Rice street, when gentleman with small
dog happened along. AS the dog was pass
ing the roughs one of them turned and
kicked it from the walk. The owner saw
him and after expostulating knocked him
down. The other two forthwith beat a
hasty retreat, and as the one knocked down
showed no desire to come to time,
the gentleman started down the street.
Not satisfied with the result the men re-
turned to the charge and whistling to the
dog called him to them when they kicked
him off the walk again. His owner turned
back to give them more punishment, when
they fired volley of stones at him. He
picked up one of the missiles and gave
chase. Catching them again ne again
downed his man and administered a severe
punishment.
