WARSAW TImt6.
On Thursday Of this week it will begin TO
dawn on the mind of Mr. Hendrieks--if he has
any perception on the subjeet-just how small a
figure he is destined to cut in the Democratic adj
ministration. If Cleveland lives, and by So do

perpetrated, of devoting his energies to in

that our Thomas is aught but guileless and
candid man who venerates his 'chief' can but
be distressing to Indiana citizens.

the American Agriculturist: frequently

neighboring states Of the Northwest, and
wishing to know how and where to get

country, the annual overaows wash the
seeds. nuts. acorns, etc., of the forests
into immense piles, or drifts" and the
young trees spring up out of these in
masses, not unlike a thlckly seeded wheat
field. Thus they grow, until they crowd
each other out, or until the cattle browse
them down. From these beds, Seeding
trees can be taken up by the roots, at
little cost, and they could be shipped
and planted in almost any of the North
western States. Numerous species of the
oak. the elm, ash, box-elder, hickory,
rig-nut, pecan, and the persimm OIL. and
several others, from twelve to thirty
inches in height, can be gathered in our

dollar per thousand. and delivered upon
steamboats, which make direct connection
with st. Louis or st. Paul. MIMI, and

There are several indications that
the Duluth & Winnipeg Railway
scheme is likely soon to cause stir
in railway circles. 1t is known that
Jay Gould and other capitalists have
i corps of engineers now employed
making thorough examination of
the route. On the basis of assurances
given by some of the parties interested
in the Duluth & Winnipeg scheme, a
company has been organized to build
a road from Crookston southwest to
Fargo and the Black Hills. We take
the following on the subject from the

The annual report ON the Improvement

The annual report ON the improvement
Of the Red River Of the North, says:
Under the appropriation Of $4,000
made July 9Th, 1884, the work Of dredg-
ing was resumed below Grand Forks.
The quantity Of material removed by the
dredgcr was 38,l3S yards. The total
amount Of work done upon this stream
is represented by 2os,s $40 cubic yards of
dredging, distributed ON over 112 miles
of river between Moorhead and Fargo
and Gooee Rapids, and between Grand
Forks aud Pembina; also removal of OBJ
structions from 152 miles of river. Total
extent Of river worked upon $50 miles.
The three foot dredged channel from
Moorhead to point eighty miles north
averaging sixty feet in width, and The four
foot dredged channels from Grand Forks
to point thirty.two miles north, averag-
ing seventy feet in width. are in good
coalition, and no difficulty is experience
ed, at any stage, by boats loaded for those
depths. The removal of snags and trees
between Moorhead and Abercrombie
simply improved that portion of the
stream for high and medium stages of
water. There arc yet to be removed be-
tween Fargo and Breckenridge, q distance
of 101 miles, large number of snags and
powders, and 10000 cubic yards of clay
bars to be dredged. From Moorhead to
Goose Rapids, ninety miles, about 10000
feet to be removed to open a continuous
three foot channa; to the head of the
rapids. From Grand Forks TO the foot of
Pelican bars, lis miles, estimated 164, 900
cubic yards Of dredging to secure four
foot channel to Pembina. Between Peli-
can bar and Pembina, forty.eight miles,
no improvement is deemed necessary ut
present.
Lock and Dam at Goose Rapids
Should the plan of improvements recon-
mended be ordered. viz: lock and dam
at Buffalo Neck and dredging approaches
thereto, ut an estimated cost of $274, 12S. 40
the sum of 100000 in addition to the
amount already appropriated, can be
probably expended during the fiscal
year ending June 3Oth, 1857. No opera
tions were undertaken during the year.

western to extend its line southeast
from Portage la Prairie to Emerson,
to u connection with the Duluth l.
Winnipeg, so as to have q grand trunk
line to the east along the south shore
of Lake Superior. Mr.. McLennan
claims for such a line it would be
sixty -four miles shorter to Montreal
than via the Canadian Pacific. He
states that an engineer is now out
making an examination of the pro.
posed line Of the Duluth 4 Winnipeg
from Duluth to Red River in order to
report to Jay Gould and the other
New York capitalists who arenow at
the back of the scheme, and lie asserts
that If Emerson is not on the alert the
road will strike the Red river further
up than Emerson. He advises the
earliest possible settlement of the
GOWNS financial affairs so that the
town will be able to do something If
necessary to encourage the railway
lines mentioned. Mr.. McLennan thinks
VIC have fine site for q town, and If
we could get out of our financial
difficulties there would be q chance of
a nice little city growing up here.
And now later comes the news from
st. Paul that the Manitoba company
is already on the alert to fight this
new and dangerous rival. The DIES.
patch of Aug. % is as follows:
"Among other railroad rumors with
which the air has been filled here, is
one tonight that President Hill, of
the Manitoba road, intends building a
new line from Crookston, Minnesota,
in the centre of the Red River Valley,
to Duluth. on Lake Superior, and also
to extend his branch from Devils
Lake, Dakota, to Little Falls, on the
Upper Missouri river, giving him an
independent line of road about seven
hundred miles long, from the Missouri
river to Lake Superior through the
centre of the territory lying between
the Northern Pacific and Canadian
Pacific systems. This will give him a
line from Duluth to Winnipeg about
fifty miles shorter than the Canadian
Pacific from Port Arthur to Winnipeg,
passing through rich agricultural re.
gion between Crookston and Leech
lake and passing also through the great
pine region of northern Minnesota,
and give him lake outlet for all the
great territory lying between northern
Minnesota and the Missouri river.
The facts which give color to this
rumor are these: The Manitoba has
a corps of engineers and surveyors
running a preliminary line east from
Crookston towards Duluth. President
Hill, Director Thorne, of New York,
and General Manager Marvel have all
been to Duluth during the past week,
where the st. Paul, & Duluth road, in
whose management tile Manitoba
directors have strong voice. is build
ing new and large terminal facilities,
and tits known in certain circles here
that several wealthy men of this city
have secured all the water power of
the Upper Missouri at Little Falls,
while the Devils Lake branch of the
Manitoba is headed directly for that
point. If the rumor be true as a few
who have heard believe, it is the
greatest railroad scheme yet proposed
in the northwest.
