The ADVANCE has commented in
the last two or three issues upon the
fact that the Milwaukee Co. had filed
articles Ut incorporation to build road
southeasterly across Murray and No.
blrs counties. Below we give that
portion Of the articles which states the
direction Of the road and the counties
through which it is to PISS:

It will be seen that Mobiles county
Is named, but the route is difficult to
outline. The Milwaukee already has q
line from Pipestone across Murray,
Mobiles and Jackson counties, but not
to the sOnth line IF the state.
On the whole, from all We can gath
er, we are inclined to think this line
will not materialze very rapidly. Don't
hold your oats for teams that may
work on this grade.

When the Anarchists Of Chicago

into their private desks and converted
every letter, document and paper they
found into y witness against the defem-

We have received copy Of the Con

Lind's m ,iden speech in Congress III
support Of the Pacific telegraph, bill.
Mr.. l.. takes the ground that Congress
has ''police'' powers over the tele'
graph lines and hence could direct the
Pacific railroads to construct and run
their own telegraph lines. The idea ID
said to be new one.
