WILLARD Is BEHIND 1T.
Work to Be Renewed at Once on
the Rocky Fork & Cooke City
KailrOad.

the Rocky Fork & Cooke City
Railroad.
Special to the Globe
HELENA, Mont, Dec. 20.-The Rocky
Fork & Cooke City railroad is at last an
assured fact. Gov. Hansen, who is now
in New York, Yesterday wired instruc-
lions for the work Of construction to be
renewed at once. Greene, Keefe 81 Co.
sent out an outfit to-day to begin track
laying, and this will be followed by
others until all the available men and
teams, which can be given employment,
are at work On the new line. The pro-
posed line of road will leave the North
ern Pacific near Billings and tap the
immense coal fields of the Clarke'S Fork
county, having for terminal point the
mining region at and around Cooke
City. The completion of the road will
have an important bearing on the fuel
question in Montana, as the coal fields
it will open are not only very extensive,
but the quality is superior to that
put on the market from any territorial
point. The road was allowed by act of
congress approved some two years ago
to build through the Crow reservation.
1t is said that the Northern Pacific and
Henry Willard have furnished the
money. The presence in New York Of
Gov. Hansen, who has interested him
self in this matter, gives color to the
statement that the Northern Paci-
fic has concluded to aid in the construc-
ton of the road 1t within addition to
the opening up of the most valuable
coal fields in the territory, Iextend to the
hitherto isolated mining district in
Clarke's Fork. The valuable leads there
have hitherto laid idle, aside from repre-
sentation, want some little development.
The recent sale on Il bond of the Alice
E. mine for large sum is an Indication
OF the great value of the mineral loca-
tons of that section.

derers.
WAHALAK, Miss, Dec. 20.-Runners
came in about noon to-day from White
House, bringing report from the other
band of searchers. They rode hard all
day and covered their territory we'll,
but failed to find any of the negroes
for whom they were hunting. A negro
woman, who was in the house during
the shooting Sunday night, was seen
to-day and told what she knew of the
affair. Her statement, however, only
confirmed other accounts, and brought
ont no new facts. The guards who
had charge of the prisoners report
that they escaped last night, but
do not think it worth while TO attempt
to find them any more. and have asked
that their names be scratched from the
list of the spotted" A note was re-
ceived to-day stating that several OF the
negroes who were in Maury'S house
during the shooting Sunday night were
making their way to Meridian through
the country, where they intended tax
ing the train in order to leave the cOun-
try. This information was telegraphed
to Meridian and all other points near
here where they might attempt to board
the train, and if they attempt it they
will certainly be caught. This seems
to be the only chance to capture them.
The searching party has been dis
banded and the riot is practically over,
at least for the present, but woe to any
of the spotted should they ever be
found in this section ofthe country.

SURVEYING A NEW LINE.
The Rock Island Is Preparing to
Build Some Extensions.

LIBERAL. Kan, Dec. 20.-A party of
Rock Island engineers, with teams,
tents and equipments started from here
this afternoon to make survey of the
proposed line from here to Ell Paso. Tex.
1t seems certain now that the Rock
Island will extend its line from Liberal
to FL Pasoeariy i'm the spring. 1t is
rumored here that its line from Liberal
to Trinidad, Col, where the company
OWNS large tracts of coal lands. may be
commenced at the same time. Parties
who claim to know say that the CON-
pany will commence to send material
here soon after New Years. There may
be some foundation for this, because all
the side tracks here have been length
ened and put IN splendid condition, and
are now in shape for handling and stor-
ins large amount of material for rail-
road construction.

HOosIER QUALIFICATION.

Indiana has reached pa riarchal years
modern patriarchs-an has been cele-
brating the event for some reason not
apparent, unless to divert attention from
indianapolis and give the cabinet
maker a chance. When admitted in
1916 that state had but 24.500 people; it
now has 100000, and it is claimed that
only two states have a larger percent
age of people who can't read and write.
That, however, doesn't warrant the sup
position that the price of votes is ex-
ceptionally high.

Senatorial Situation.

Little Falls Transcript.
While we have no other than kindly feel
ings towards the great twin cities of Mime
sota-St Paul and Minneapolis-and rejoice
in their progress and prosperity, we never
theless consider that other sections OF the
state are entitled to at least equal considera-
ton During the eight territorial legisla-
lures, four of the presiding officers were
from St. Paul, and out of the thirty speak
ers of the house since Minnesota became a
state. eleven Tor over one-1hird) have been
supplied by these two cities. The preside nts
of the senate and the speakers largely shape
legislation By the formation OF the commit
tees and great political as we'll as business
advantages result from controlling these
POSITIONS.
There is no law which required the people
TO elect q congressional representative from
a given district in which he resides. but it
would be regarded as an anomaly if the five
congressional districts in the state should
select their congressman from st. Paul end
Minneapolis The people Of the various dis
tricts would resent saeh an imputation upon
their ability in q very emphatic manner. 1t
is no less an anomaly for the two cities TO
ask for both senators, and only an assurance
fairly monumental would have conceived of
such an idea.
Ii is with no desire 10 excite local or fac
tional jealousies that we cite these facts, but
To ask whether. both Us matter of political
and business fair play, some locality outside
the two ciues should not receive the senator
ship al the hands of the Legislature this win
ter. The country representation is almost
Eve 70 one against the Twin Cities. 1t is. Of
course q matter entirely within the control
of the country members TO decide. II they
do not think sufficient political honors have
been heaped upon these cities: il they do
not think any other portion OF the state is
entitled to consideration; If, ike Uriah Heap,
they desire TO be especially 'umble and &C.
knowledge the inferiority of all the remain
der of the state they viii insist upon hand
ing Mr.. Washbtrn the serfatorship upon a
silver platter Il is presumable that he viii

YELLOW FEVER GERMS
A Tennessee Physician Discovers
MicrO-Organism That Resem.
bleS a SDeciaI Germ

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, Dec. 2O.-Dr.
James K. Reeves. of this city, an emf
nent microscopic, has been studying
the tissues of the liver and kidney from
patients who died with yellow
fever at Decatur, Ala. and has
discovered a micro-organism that
closely resembles a special germ. DR..
Reeves has sent mountings of these
tissues to various psychologists in this
country, and has had his discoveries
photographed by Prof. Delmero, of the
Ohio state university. The micro
organism is a bacillus. and
nothing like it has ever been
found by DR.. Reeves in his long expert
ence with bacteria. The doctor hopes
that his discovery will prove successful
in determining the specific germ of yell
low fever and that proper culture will
be found for 1t before next summer.
The doctor is reticent and declines to
say anything further until after con-
sultatiOn with eminent scientists to
which he is invited, to be held at Johns
Hopkins university the first week III
January.
