WISCONSIN POLITICS.
Gubernatorial Candidates Setting
Up Pins in Washington.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.-George c.
Ginty, the leading Republican guberna-
tOrial candidate of Wisconsin, will ar
rive in Washington Saturday night.
EX-Gov. Thad {. Pound has been here
some time looking after Ginty's political
fences and will entertain the coming
man. Pound and Ginty are Chippewa
Falls citizens. and pull together well.
Now that Blaine has written his fa-
nous letter declining the. presidency i'm
advance, Pound is again a Republican.
He believes that Sawyer, SpOoner and
ex-senator Cameron are all for (Iinty.
although these gentlemen declare they
are not working for that boomer. Saw
yer is known to consider himself under
special obligations to Ginty for his
work in the legislature when Cameron
was last elected 10 the senate. This
also places Cameron under obligations
Of similar sort, and Sawyer says he
does not believe Cameron will be a can
didate, as has been recently alleged.
Pound claims all the representatives
are in favor of Ginty except Smith. of
milwaukee,, labor, and Hudd, of Green
Bay, Democrat. This is a false
claim, however, for CasweIl, of the
INdCllC ulStIlCl. 10 a CdllulOutC lOI gov
ernOr, and strongly backed by fellow
representatives. He resides at Fort
Atkinson, and the people along the
lake front near Racine oppose him for
denomination. They have done so for
some time, and the district is getting
doubtful on that account, hence his
friends, and Republican opponents like
wise, are booming Caswell for COVER
nor to make room for other Republican
congressman. Consequently Guenther
and Spooner are believed to be favor
ing Caswell. Isaac Stephenson wants
his fellow townSman, ii. o. Fairchild.

An Ice Gorge.
Special to the Globe.

PORT JERvIs, n. Y, Feb. 23.-The
Delaware river began breaking up
Wednesday evening. A field of ice
three miles long moved to this village,
where it stopped. forming an ice dam a
mile in length and seven feet thick.
The water backed up and rose twelve
feet in twenty minutes, flooding many
houses along the river and damaging
the suspension bridge. The gorge is
slightly broken opposite this village,
but the heavy ice up the river is still
intact. When it breaks up the gorge
here will no doubt be broken. The
Never Sink river, which joins the Della
ware here, has been forced from its bed
by the gorge at Port Clinton and is
doing great damage to roads and valua-
able farms.

nominated for governor because two
great men at Marinette are too many,
and Fairchild might want to run for
congress. Spooner favorS CaSwell in
order to have the governor in the south
eastern part of the state lest Hold Tay
lor, OF Hudson, be nominated, and
when Spooner comes up for reelection
1t might be argued that the governor
and senator ought not come from Hud-
son. Hence, Pounds claims of unani
nous consent to the nomination of
Ginty are not believed well founded.
General public policy for Republicans
seems to point to Caswell. That gentle
man is non-committal, but wrote many
letters to his friends in Wisconsin, and
there may be some secret political
significance in that. Strong indications
point to general rumpuS in the Re-
publican convention on this guber-
material matter.

just Discrimination.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.-The inter-
state commerce commission to-day pro-
mnlgated an elaborate opinion in the
case OF George Rice, OF Marietta. o.,
against the Louisville Il Nashville and
several other railroads charging among
other things discrimination in favor of
the Standard Oil company. The case
of each of the defendants was cOnsd-
cred separately, and in the case of the
Louisville IL Nashville an order was en-
tered that defendants cease their unjust
discrimination; that they cease to make
tank rates when the tanks differ in ca
pacity, and that they conform their
charges on tank. car and barrel ship
mentS to the rule above prescribed.
In the case of the ST. Louis, Iron
Mountain u Southern Railroad com
pany the commission finds that the de-
PENDANTS made excessive rates Oh barrel
shipments, and that the effect was to
unJustly discriminate against complain
ant and to give undue and unreason-
able preference to shippers of tank
ears. Order was entered that its charges
be corrected and made to conform to the
rule.
In the other three cases, the Mobile &

WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.-Congressman
Dibble, of South Carolina, chairman of
the house committee on public build
ings and grounds, reported favorably
Wilson's bill for an increased appropri-
alton for public building at Winona.
The report states that the former APP
preparation of 100000 is not enough.
because Winona is rapidly growing. and
the ratio of increase will make it city
of $4,000 Inhabitants inside of the next
ten years. Wilson asked for $500. 900.

the recommendation for an increase to
S150,000, deeming that enough. Mr..
Wilson. though not fully satisfied, is
contented with the report. 1t passed

aside for printing with a favorable

PLAINS. This Is where M. Jones and nB
colleagues, for he will organize a stock
company for the breeding OF his buffalo
cattle. intend to go into an enterprise
that eventually will revolutionize the
breeding of range cattle. The domestic
COW crosses with the buffalo pull admin
ably and the product is a large, hardy
and superb meat giving animal, reglr-
ing comparatively little care, living
almost entirely on the range, and
strong enough in the characteristic
of the wild animal to withstand
the storms of winter. The domestic
cattle, when a blizzard comes, turn
their backs to it and soon become ex-
hausted. The buffalo cross breeds a
the storm and come out of it as well as
ever. They need less attention, grow
fat and thrive on the ranges that the do
nestle cattle desert, and altogether pre-
sent a field Of enterprise that offers large
profit. The meat is firm and juicy, and
the average weight Of the dressed carcass
is over 1900 pounds. The price in any
market is double that of the best ordinary
beef. The hide of the cross breed is also
a valuable article. 1t is a thick, smooth
skin, with the soft hair Of the buffalo
covering it evenly, and can be readily
sold for $50 each.
Mr.. Jones discovered near Winnipeg a
similar ranch, owned by S. L. Bedson,
warden Of the penitentiary, but it Is not
being run on 80 large a scale. This ranch
is situated about sixty miles southeast
from Winnipeg, and on a recent VISIT
Mr.. Jones found that the greatest sue
cess was being had by Mr.. Bedson IN
cross breeding. He has no hesitation In
~pronouncing the half and three-quarter
breed cattle the best in the world tor
range purposes. On the Bedson ranch
the buffalo cross cattle live entirely ON
the prairie grasses, summer and winter
paving up the roots in winter and need
ing no care. Mr.. Bedson is not making
much effort as yet ito market his So OK,
and is getting only eighteen cents a
pound for such as he kills for market,
but the hides bring him $50 each for
robes. He has only twenty-five head
of the half breeds, but will have many
more next year. Nh. Jones offered bus
rival in the business no less han $500
apiece for the twenty-five head, $l2,5OC
in all, but the offer was refused with 9
laugh. Evidently Mr.. Bedson knows he
has a good thing. He ever refused t
put a price on them. -,
