Lincoln correspondence Omaha Bee,
Contractor Mcdonald, of the Chicago
& Northwestern extension work from
Fremont to Lincoln, is in this city
locating his final grading camp out op-
posita the fair grounds. and large force
of men will commence work from this
point the first of the wesk grading
northward about five miles, where work
is already being pushed with commend
able speed. The grading of yard room
and depot grounds within the corpora
tion will follow. and work in securing
these grounds is occupying the attention
OF the right Of way parties. One station
on this extension of the Northwestern
has been located south of Wahoo at Ger.
esco postotfice, near the Saunders coun-
ty line, and presumably one more sta.
ton will be located in Lancaster county
between that point and this city. Ad-
yances made towards purchasing lands
for townsite, where3th people look for
towns to be located, are met with fahu-
lous prices and the farmers who are
along the right of way are preparing to
make the most of it.
s. H. I'll. Clark, Superintendent
Nichols, of the Missouri Pacific, and J..
H.. Mccall, of Plum Greek, Dawson
county, have been in conference in this
city the past day and it gives an oppor-
tunity to revive rumor, that heretofore
has been confined to close quarters, in
effect that the Missouri Pacific was not
going to stay at Lincoln but had its
feelers out for northwestern extension
into new Nebraska fields. In fact, close
| observers of railroad matter incline to
this opinion, and if SO, why not strike the
| Dawson county country, and Why should
| not Mac come down and talk it over, to
be sure. An extension of the Missouri
Pacific west from hesitate capital would,
for hundred miles, be through coun.
try already pretty effeetually covered by
| the B. Il H., but at Plum creek point
| would be found almost equally distant
from the b. s. M. Grand Island extension
on the one hand, and the B. & M. El'vood
extension on the other eide. Therefore
in the pending struggle to acquire new
territory, and especially in the contest
for the cattle trade of the northwest
and the other interests In that rich and
undeveloped lard, it need occasion nc
surprise if the Missouri Pacific become,
an aggressive factor, and makes of Lin.

Bismarck, was the only one of the party
able TO come out on the platform to re-
ceive the coincidence of few democrats

their absence, having read the dispatches
published in the Capital the evening
before that the north Dakota members
had "met the enemy and were theirs

lots of committeeman there from south
Dakota who had preverse disposition
to have things their own way and 1t is
his impression that they succeeded in
the perversity, and that the taking of
the territorial convention to YanktoH
means that they intend to have their
own way in that alsoias it is as far away
from the land of No. hard as they
could take it without going over into
Nebraska. Mr.. Williams says that John
Il. Gamble was the leading spirit from
south Dakota and came there loaded to
the muzzIe with proxies from the Black
Hills country all of which he put into
the south Dakota pool. He thinks Mr..
Gamble will loom up &c
a candidate for delegate to
congress as there seemed to
be general feeling of indifference in
regard 30 Mr. Clifford. North Dakota
republicans got bad "black eye"ln the
committee meeting. and while they do
not say much the gnashing of teeth that
can be heard across the street and the
broad grins that sluggisbly move over
their otherwise benign countenances
speak louder than words and with fully
ss much profanity the volcano OF wrath
and indignation that are working q cy.

famous battlefield it was an affecting
sight to see him standing on the spot
where he had fallen in the shock of
battle and given up his life for his
country-by proxy. 1t is strange that
a mar who thus suffered and died for
his country should have 30 little SYM
pathy for those comrades in arms, who,
having lost their health in the service,
are now applicants for pensions. Bills
that have passed both branches of con-
gress, presumably after careful examlna-
tion by the pension committees of both
are vetoed by the man whose substitute
gave up his life for his country under
the pretext that he cennot ait idly by
and see tho treasury of his country
robbed, even in the name of patriotism.
With such guardian of it's interests the
country is hardly in need of congress,
and it will not be surprising if Grover,
some time, sends in message saying 80.

The bill to restore F'itz Johrs Porter to
his long ago forfeited position in the
army has passed both branches OF con.
gress and it is safe to presume that the
man who Unfortunately vetoes the
the pension bills of union soldiers will
sign the bill which restores to honor and
position an officer whose treacbery
caused the slaughter of thousands of
union soldiers. Fitz John Porter will
reap the reward of persistent effort.
Often defeated in the legisla-
tive and executive depart
ments of the government, he has had
the patience to wear out his enemies
and to stand ready, when the country
was in the hands OF his southern friends,
to take advantage of the situation and
achieve vindication and its accom-
panying pecuniary compensatica. The
bill as it passed authorizes the presi-
dent, by and with the advice and cen.
sent of the senate. to appoint Gen. Por.
ter to the position of colonel in the
army, the Same rank and grade held by
him at the time of his dismissal, and
authorizes the president, in his discre
tion, to place Gen. Porter on the retired
list as Of that grade-Gen. Porter, how
ever, to receiFe no pay, compensation o.
allowance whatsoever prior to his ap
pointrnent under this act.

It is said that the north Dakota mem
bers OF the republican territorial COM
mittee were somewhat disappointed at
the outcome of the recent meeting of
the committee. They were doubtless
not as much disturbed over the selection
of Yankton as the place of meeting, as
over the apportion made for the
delegates. On the basis mapped out by
the gentleman from the north there
would have been 222 delegates from
that section and 301 from the south. On
the basis of the population and vote at
large for each county the north Will get
19l and the south 3l1. Thus the north
will be relatively weaker than was ex-
pected, and hence they are not feeling
very good over the first skirmish OF the
campaign.-Sto1D Falls Press.
The representation upon a population
basis was only just recognition of the
rights of thousands of Dakotaians who
came into the territory between Novem-
ber, 1884, and June, 1885. The census
furnished the latest official basis for
representation and for that reason it
was used by the committee.
