The semi-Of1icial announcement that
Mr.. HUNTINGTON has completed all ar.
engagements for his long taIked-Of alli-
ance of Western railroad lines. and
that his original consolidation scheme
is about consolidated, will create no sur
prise; yet it is matter of interest to
Northwestern people to learn that one
of our most important lines is to be in
cluded in the combine. Ever since Mr..
HUNTINGTON refused to go into JAY
GOULD'S "Gentlemen'S Association"
it has been understood that he had
scheme of his own for forming a rail
road combine that would render his
railroad interests independent of the
cut-thrOat policy that the Western lines
were pursuing. 1t now transpires that
with the money he realized from the
sale of the Chesapeake d. Ohio road
Mr.. HUNTINGTON has been buying up
the stock of the Chicago. Milwaukee
q st. Paul and the Denver 4 Rio
Grande, and now proposes to make them
part of his trust. The HUNTINGTON
consolidation, according to the figuring
of the Chicago Tribune. amounts to 27,-
600 miles of railroad, or little more
than one-sixth of the entire railroad
mileage of the country. 1t is said to in
clude the following lines: The Wabash,
the Chicago, Milwaukee q st. Paul, the
Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe, the Den
yer d Rio Grande, the Missouri Pacific
and the Southern Pacific. 1t is further
more said that the funding of the debt
of the Milwaukee and the new funding
scheme of the AtchisOn, Topeka &
Santa Fe were devised in view of the
+ formation of the proposed cOnsOlida-
ton. and that a formal announcement
of the consolidation will be made as
soon as those schemes are consum-
mated.
This is by all odds the biggest rail-
road combination that has yet been eff
/ fected. and will most probably result in
! the establishment of the great railway
1 trust that has been Mr.. GoULD's dar-
/ ling idea for several years. 1t is assert
/ ed that the knowledge of the formation
/ of the OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES cOmbina-
! ton inspired the combinations among
our Northwestern railroads which re-
Gently created SO much sensation in rail-
way circles. The Milwaukee line, being
connected with the HUNTINGTON COM
bine, will doubtless be used to adj
vantage in making war upon roads that
attempt to demoraIize the HUNTINGTON
! alliance. The situation is an interest
ing one. to say the least, and the public
will wait with some Impotence to see
what they will see-which will probably
be a final union of all the railroad inter

HOME SAydGES.

If the good people who sit in sackclOth
and ashes bewailing the fate of the ig-
nOrant natives of TimbuctOo. and who
are scurrying around begging pennies
here, there and everywhere to send to
heather lands, would only give atten-
the relief Of the benighted jewellers in
ton to matters nearer home, they would
possibly find better field for their mis-
sionary labOrS, and more practical use
for their charity. The other day, down
in Kentucky, the governor was asked to
commute the sentence of a twelve-year-
old boy who had been sent to state
prison tor life. On an investigation of
the case the governor learned that the
crime of which the boy had beef con-
victed was the murder Of a younger
brother, whom he had knocked in the
head and then sunk the body in a stream.
1t was further learned that the youthful
murderer and his victim were the chill
dren of poor and Illiterate parents,
who lived up in the mountain regions
of Kentucky, and that they had never
been taught the difference between
right and wrong. To all intentS and
purposes they were in as benighted
condition as the natives of Timbuctoo,
and in a far more miserable plight than
the citizens of China and Japan, upon
whom millions of dollars of missionary
money are spent. When the kind

NOyEMBER ELECTIONS.

One would hardly think from the
stiffness which prevails in this quarter
that exciting political campaigns are
being conducted in the states to the
south and east of us. An occasional
breeze watts to our ears the sound of
claShing demiiOhns in Iowa, and when
the wind is very fair we now and then
get an echo of FORAKER'S voice sing
ing above the noise of the fray as he
leads an imaginary charge against the
rebel lines at Petersburg. As post
bellum fighter, FORAKER is magniti-
cent success, whose equal has not been
seen on earth since SANCHO PANZA's
conquest Of the windmillS They are
having an Old-fashiOned country cleo
ton down in New Jersey. where the
farmers gather at the country stores to
drink cider and swap jokes. Up in Mas
Sachusetts and down in Pennsylvania
they are having an educational tariff
campaign. while in Virginia it is
knOck-dOwn and drag-Out between the
Mahonites and the Ants. Mississippi,
as usual, is having a OIe-Sided cam
paign. In none of the states are the is
sues of sufficient importance to attract
attention beyond their respective Dor
ders, except i'll Ohio and Virginia,
where they are rather personal than
nOtiOnal. 1t is fight to the death with
MALONE and FORAKER. and both of
them are bleeding at the fifth rib from
wounds inflicted by their own party
leaders. To all human appearances,
MAHONE'S goose Is cooked; but if he
should pull through by the use of money
and federal power, it would only be
personal victory, and would not signify
a dissolution of the solid South. FORA
KER has a better show than MAHoNE.
In the first place, he has a clean party
majority at his back: and in the second
place, he is a trife more decent
man than the Virginia guerrilla. 1t
is true therei is treachery enough among
the Republicans to bury FORAKER out
Of sight if il were not for the singular
fact that his Democratic competitor is
embarrassed by the same trouble. Gen.
CAMPBELL is probably the victim of as
much treason as FORAKER. There are
so many wheels within wheels in Ohio
politics that it is always unsafe to pre-
dict results in an off year in the
Buckeye state. Still, If FORAKER wins
or loses, it will only be a personal vic
tory or personal loss. If he wins, he
will at once inaugurate his presidential
canvass, and will proceed to make it
lively for the HARRISON administration
the next three years; and for this reason
alone the outcome of the Ohio cam
paign will be waited for with interest.

though diminutive individual. The
court interfered before the witness
could complete the expression OF the
contempt he said he felt. In the con-
duct of the case the defense had put on
five witnesses, who testified they heard,
at one time, a conversation between
Barnum and Miss Thompson, in which
the former virtually admitted the charge
of neglect, and said he did not consider
the child worth saving. Expert teSti-
mony occupied most Of the day. The
plaintiff is now introducing rebutting
testimony, and the case will certainly

THE PENSION GRaBBER.

Senator MANDERSON is the most
laughed at man in the country to-day,
because of the ridiculous attitude he has
placed himself in by returning TANNER's
rerating check. His conduct in this
matter revives recOllections of the sal
airy grab days. An Eastern senator,
who had voted for the salary grab bill
and drew his allotment when it passed,
discovered too late that he had raised a
storm of popular Indignation i'll his
state: and when he saw that his chances
for reelection had been jeOpardized by
his avarice, he concluded to donate the
salary grab to the school fund. Ac-
cordingly he enclosed check for the
amount Of overpay in letter to the
state superintendent Of schools, in
which he avOWed his attachment
to the common school system and
assured the official that his only object
in supporting the bill for increasing
congreSsmen'S salaries was to secure by
indirection what could not be accom-
plished by direct methods-aid from the
national treasury to help educate the
poor children of the state. The school
official promptly retired the check to
the senator with the statement that the
poor children of his state were not re-
duced to the extremity of accepting
stolen moneys. The correspondence got
into print, and at the next election the
senator was shelved for life. The same
fate unquestionably awaits Senator
HENDERSON, unless the people of Ne
braska are utterly insenSible to the Or
binary decencieS and proprietieS.

to seat the Republican benefc1aries of
the fraud. 1t will be at this stage of the
game that the Democrats in the legis-
lature will be required to display
nerve. 1t will be their duty to resist
every effort to seat the false claimants,
and to block legislative proceedings until
doomsday if necessary to prevent tie
preparation of fraud and to protect the
purity of the ballot. There is no occa-
sion for mincing words OF politely meas
Uring swords when confronted by a

the devil is with fire. So that 1t is the
unquestioned duty of the Montana DEM
oerats to grid up their lOins to fight the
scoundrels from the word go, and to die
in the last ditch rather than surrender
or compromise a single principle in this
affair. The eyes of the nation are upon
them, and they are expected to do their
duty.
