GENERAL CONSOLIDATION.
Largo Railway Systems to Rule
After 1890

CHICAGO, Oct. 24.-The Tribune this
morning says: There can be no doubt
any longer that the reports regarding
the contemplated consolidation of the
various railroads in this country into q
a half dozen larger systems are correct
and that before the end of 1890 the va
rious consultations or trust sche mes
will have take definite shape. Fresh
evidence is obtained every day to prove
that the reported Gould-HuntingtO
summated before long, 1t is equally
certain the great Northern combination,
which comprises the Manitoba, Burling-
ton, Canadian Pacific, 500 Line and
ether Northwestern interests will
be carried out. Presidents Hill,
of the Manitoba, openly admits
such is the object. 1t was first
thought the Union Pacific would
join the great Northern combination.
If such was the object it has evidently
been abandoned. The indications now
point strongly to consolidation of the
Union Pacific with the Vanderbilt in
tereSts. In recent issue the Tribune
stated that the Vanderbilts had con-
solidation scheme of their own, and
that they would not JOIN any of the
other proposed combinations. The new
Vanderbilt consolidation scheme is now
nearly perfected. All the roads to CON-
prise this great consolidation, except
are the Chicago & Alton and the Union
Pacific. As shown few days ago, the
VanderbiltS own or control the follow
ing roads: New York Central and the
West Shore, between Buffalo and
New York; the Boston & AL
bany, which affords Boston
and New England outlet; the
New York & Harlem, which gives direct
communication between New York and
Boston; the Lake Shore, Michigan Cen
trail and Nickel Plate. between Chicago
and Buffalo; the Bee line, Big Four and
Indianapolis d ST. Louis, between Cleve-
land and st. Louis; the Ohio, Indiana &
Western. Lake Erie d Western, and one
or two other Central Traffic association
lines; the Chicago & Northwestern,
from Chicago to Omaha and st. Paul,
with extensions to the Black Hills and
Fort Fetterman, Wyo. From the latter
point an extension to the Pacific coast is
contemplated. The Vanderbilts have
also lately acquired the Chesapeake &
Ohio. which gives them all addi-
tiOnal through line to the seaboard at
Newport News, Va, from the West and
South west. To round up the already
acquired systems, the Chicago & Alton
and Union Pacific will have to be
brought into the combination. The
Chicago & Alton will give the Wander
bllt system an outlet from Chicago to
Kansas City and from st. Louis to Kan
sas City. The Union Pacific will afford
the necessary outlet for the whole sys-
tenn to the Pacific coast, connecting at
Kansas City with the Alton. at Omaha
with the Northwestern and at Sioux
City with the Chicago. st. Paul, Min
neapolis & Omaha, which runs directly
to Lake Superior points, Duluth and
Washburn, and is controlled by the
when completed, will have an aggregate
mileage of $4,000 miles.

NOT A REEORMER,

Gen. RAUM, the new pension commits
sioner, is good deal of back number.
He has been a well-fed politician, and
has gathered the substantials of life
freely. There is no question that he is
a very capable and judieiOus man as
politics goes. There is no suggestion OF
civil service reform about him. He be-
lieves that the country belongs to the
Republican party, and all the patronage
is capital for it to operate with. He
was commissioner of internal revenue
for seven years, and made that depart
ment hive of party industry. He be-
longs to the QUAY school in politics,
and is as INSCRIPTIONS where party in
terests are concerned. He dates from
Illinois, but is a Washington attorney
and lobbyist. He will not embarrass the
administration with his mouth, although
he may quietly dlsburse the surplus
about as freely.

WHAT IT MAY MEAN.

Before the receipt of the official con-
firmation of the traffic agreement be-
tween the Union Pacific and the Chicago
81 Northwestern, the truth of such
deal was very obvious. and in measure
made necessary by peculiar state of
affairs. The Union Pacific main line
between Omaha and Ogden IS over
weighted with vast debt to the
United States government, debt al
most impossible to pay. The interest on
this has accumulated to such an extent
that the government may be compelled
to foreclose and seize the line in order
to protect Itself. Foreseeing this the
Union Pacific directors have merged all
their branch lines into new company.
These lines are not saddled with debt
to the government and were built in
such way as to cost scarcely anything.
Suppose, as was suggested by we'll
posted Chicago paper, that the govern
ment should fOreclose on the Union Pa
cific'S main line, and that prior to this
foreclosure a parallel line had been
built. connecting the Union Pacific with
some one or more OF the ST. Paul roads,
what would the Union Pacific people
lose? Not much. The Chicago &
Northwestern has its Western terminus
at Fort Casper, almost in the center Of
Wyoming. This line, which is the
Fremont, Elkhorn & Missouri Val
ley branch, was never built
with Fort Casper for an objective
point. The Northwestern has recently
acquired enormous terminal facilities
at place called Newport. on the Pa
cifie coast. If the two lines should
make traffic agreement it would be an
easy matter to build line from Fort
Casper. Wyo. T.. to Granger. Wyo. r..
distance of only few hundred miles.
This would give the Union Pacific a
Chicago outlet; it would also give it
through connections with st. Paul,
Duluth and Superior, while the Chicago
& Northwestern would reap the bene-
fit of almost all the trade of the South
west, including California. Such an
agreement would, to all intentS and
purposes. do away with the necessity
for paralIeling the main line of the
Union Pacific in the event of fore
closure by the United States govern
ment. It would also do away with the

DIEp.-At her home in this city
on last Thursday, February 7th,
Mrs. G. c. Blair, Of childbirth. aged
Is years.
This is one Of the saddest events
that has occurred in our city for
many a day. Mrs. Blair had been
a resident Of this city for many
years and vas a happy, joyous
young girl, and had hosts of friends
among the young people. She was
married to her husband, Mr.. C. G..
Blair, a member of the firm of the
Dakota Mill Co., a little over a year
ago, and they were enjoying a pleas
ant and happy home. She was
buried on Friday in the Elk Point
cemetery, and was followed to the
grave by q large circle Of relatives
and friends. The little one, which
was perhaps the cause of her un-
timely death, preceded her to that
home beyond the skies. only three
days. The Y. w. C. r. U. of this
city, Of which society she was an
honored member, attended in a
body and assisted at the funeral.
Mr.. Blair, the sadly bereaved hus-
band, has the heartfelt sympathy of
the entire community.

The supper at the new Congrega-

was a success beyond the most san

grand and superb, and secondly
TIE people seemed to turn out en-
ns1sss to enjoy it. The total receipts
were S1l262, netting the society,
after all expenses were paid, s1O2 II.
There is one characteristic about
Elk Point church people that we
feel proud of. and that is their lack
of petty selfishness. There are five
Church societies or organizations in
the city, all having fine church
buildings now, and each strive with
a laudable ambition to build UP
their respective societies. vet none
Of them eem to wish to thrive upon
the downfall of another. They all
stretch forth their hands and helm
each other. While this feeling oil
friendship and brotherly love has
long existed among our church peo-
pie, it has been more fully and
completely demonstrated within the
past year. May this spirit Of true
christian brotherhood increase Of
the years go by, and finally result,
in the complete moral and spiritual
reformation Of our people. Give ii,
