A New Road,

Chicago Times.
There is considerable speculation regard
ing the Minneapolis & Pacific, which is a
new road now being pushed west and south
from Minneapolis. 1t is inte nded primarily
as wheat road and will run about midway
between the two divisions of the Manitoba.
1t was projected to prevent the diversion
Of so much wheat to Duluth. The firm of
Pillsbury 81 Hurlbert controls about forty
elevators, with capacity of over 5, 900. 600
bushels, on the line of the Manitoba and
the Northern Pacific. and yet it feels the
growing Importance of Duluth since the
Omaha road has its own line to that point
and Superior and is contributing to the
rapid development of those Lake Superior
ports. A contract has just been closed by
the Minneapolis & Pacific with the Pull
man company for equipment to the value
of 500, ZOO, and fifteen first-class engines
have been ordered for the same road.

About 1 o'clock yesterday morning, as
Officer Eberhard was patroling his beat in
North Minneapolis, he was surprised to
hear a report of revolver, and felt the
wind from a bullet as it sped past his head
Before he could look around a second re-
port sounded, and another bullet whistled
past him. AS the officer turned he saw a
figure behind tree, and drew his revolver,
preparatory to firing in return. He changed
his mind, however, and advanced toward
the figure. which proved to be Mrs. South
of North Minneapolis. who is thought to
be somewhat demented.

savagely inquired. as the officer approached.
MI. Eberhard took the woman to her home.

before has she made assaults on some of
the officers. and appears to have deep
hatred against all of the police. She has
tried to kill Officer Grattan, and once drew
a big knife on now Detective Hawev. 1t
is the opinion of the officers that she
should be confined in an asylum.

The police have it in for the gamblers
about town. and are determined if possible
to break up the dens that are dark blot en
the fair name of Springfield. For some
time William Clark, who keeps a saloon on
the south side of west Main street near the
corner of Center, has been operating a
gambling room over the saloon. The police
have known of this room, and Saturday
night determined to raid the place
About 10 o'clock Assistant Chief Mckay,
Marshal Hughes, Deputy Potee and officers
Wilson and Furniss made a descent on the
rooms. All the entrances We're guarded

the room.
As the officers entered two men rushed to
the glass doors that open out on the yaranda
and. kicking thir way through one of them
tried to make their escape by entering an
other room, but the cOppers were too quick
Tor them and they were taken in with the
Test. The crowd was engaged in the Seduct-

gtther with the chips and other gambling
appurtenenceS were captured.
Following are the men who We're arrest

went rs a domestic To the residence of An

worth decided that Springfield was getting
too warm for him. and he Sh""k the dust of
the city FROM his feet and hied away to

did not want the knowledge of his e>capade

Let me also emphasize the necessity for
working people. To many this atlmoniton
is not needed, particularly in Springheld;
but to working men generally
the admOnitiOn does apply. II
the laboring classes would taboo the
saloon and would squander less money on
vitiating amuseuents and would get into
the habit of paying cash for everything and
would dispense with the Injuries which only
/ the rich can afford. they would not only bc
happier but their snbrety and economy
would work out solution of this Labor
problem.
| Wise legislation would do much toward
settling these labor troubles. The govern
ment ought To interfere t0 prevent foreign
laborerS coming here under contract. We
boast that our land is an asylum
for the oppressed of other lands.
So let il be. but let every man
b. free aS soon aS he touches our soil, not a
vaSSal. Free to all our privileges, but not
free Ia take the bread from honest work
men or to degrade our industries To the low
level of the wretched deSpotism of Eu-
rope.
Steps should be taken Ia check immigrd-
tiOll but migration should be encouraged.
What is needed is an emptying of our sur
pluS city population into the Sparcely settled
country districts. Love of farm life is what
is needed to relieve the tension of the labor
a l. in,
brinins this about?
Why might not congress enact laws by
which the unemployed i'll our cities and
others who are needy and deserving could
be- helped to position of independence, 10y
acquiring and cultivating II portion of the
land in that portion of our country of
which we hear to-day that the soil only
waits Ia be tickled with a plow in order 10
smile with an abundant harvest? This is a
matter which is largely in the hands of the
workingmen themselves, for they have the
unspeakable privilege and tremendous re-
sponsibility of electing their lawmakers.
In closing, We find that there is a balm in
Gilead; there is IA physician there, and
tidl Illt DdIiH II tHc 'uIiStLdll htliSloh anu
the physician the Son of God. 4 better
feeling between master and w0rkmen is one
OF the needs of the hour. What will pro-
duce this So speedily and etfectually aS for |
both 10 bow together in humble submission

is applied and that physician accepted, just |
So soon shall this earth become blessed, and
man be healed of all his woes.
