The Columbia river above Rock Island

EOad could possibly be built, Is the noun
tain range lying between EllensbuTgh
and the Columbia river ID an impenetra-
bic barrier. Northern Pacific engineers
examined into this matter years ago, and
IN agree that no practicable route for o.
railroad can BE- found between Ellensburgh
and the Columbia river. There ID only
one way 10 reach EllenSburgh from the
east, the north, or the south, and that IL
up the Yakima river by way Of North
Yakima. This route d occupied BY the
Northern Pacific, and that Il the only
railroad that b likely TO ever touch the
town Of EllensbuEEh. There b perhaps
no town in the tsEzitoEy 90 completely
walled In BY mountains - Ellensburgh,
and yet some Of the boomers who live
there are continually sending misleading
statements about . proposed road 10 the

ducts which would Be borne on that river

HUNTINGTON'S DEAL.

When man sells his property and
pockets the money, that is his affair
unless he happens to be the owner of
an important railroad; then it is every
body's affair. G. p. HUNTINGTON might
sell his house. his horses, his farm or
his California vineyard, and no one
would ever stop to inquire into the
transaction. But the moment it became
known that he had sold the Chesapeake
& Ohio railroad to the VANDERBILTS
the whole country became interested in
the transaction. Mr.. HUNTINGTON
reasons for selling are plausible and
business-like, but what the public are
most anxious about are the WANDER
Bits reasons for buying. Whenever
a big railroad deal is made these days
there is a popular suspicion that it is in
the direction of forming a railroad trust.
There has nothing yet been made public
in relation to the VANDERBLTS' deal
with HUNTINGTON to justify this suspi-
ciOn; still, the public mind will not rest
easy until all the facts are known.
From the way it looks now the city Of
New York has more to apprehend from
this transaction than any other locality.
TO our mind it looks like the opening
up of rival seaport on the Atlantic
coast that will, in time, make New
York relinquish its claim to metropoli-
tan distinction. WASHINGTON always
had it in mind, and suggested it fire.
quently in his writings, that the future
metropolis of America would be at the
mouth of the Chesapeake bay. 1t looks
now as if the VANDERBLTs were i'm
pressed with the same idea, and with
their enormous wealth and great rail
road possessions they are surely in posi-
ton to accomplish great deal in the
way of diverting trade from New York
and turning it in the direction of the
city that is yet to be on Hampton har-
Dor. Chicago is ambitious to rival New
York, and will doubtless be friendly to
the scheme of building up the rival sea-
port on the Atlantic coast. With B0S-
ton on one side, Chicago on the other,
and the VANDERBILTS enamOred with
the idea of rearing metropolis at New
port News, the city of New York has
big fight on its hands,

The Remains of Wisconsin's First
Governor Buried at Lancaster.

The Remains of Wisconsin's First
Special to the Globe.
LANCASTER, Wis, July 23.-This city
was to-day the scene of one of the his
torical events of the state of Wisconsin,
the funeral of Nelson G. Dewey, its first
governor. From early morning the num-
Der of people grew until the streets
were crowded with friends and ac-
quaintances of the late governor, who
lad assembled to pay their last tribute
to his memory. Preliminary services
were held at Cassville, the place of his
death, at Z o'clock this morning. At
7:30 the body left that place
route by an escort from Lam
arrival of the procession at IL o'clock it
halted at the residence of Mrs. George
Cox, an old friend of the governor. in
whose home the body was placed and
lay in state until o'clock, the funeral
hour. Shortly before II o'clock a spe-
cial train arrived over the Northwest
ern, bringing the state committee. con-
sisting of Gov. Hoard, eX-Govs. Lewis
and Taylor, Attorney General Esta-
brook, Judge Orion, Col. Delaplaine,
Hons. E. W. Reyes, S. n. Pinney, Theo-
dore Rodoiph, Messrs. Thwaites, Harper,
Fitch, Cunning and others from
Madison. They were entertained
by citizens and at the hotels.
All business houses in the city
were closed from l 10 8 p. m. At 2
o'clock the procession formed at the
residence of Mrs. George Cox and
marched to the grave, only two blocks
distant. in the following order: Clergy
men, hearSe and pail bearers, family,
state committee, old settlers and mem
bers of Grant county bar, county and
city officers. citizens and friends. At
the grave the Episcopal service was
read. Rev. Mr.. Pulford officiating. This
was done at Gov. Dewey's special re-
quest. Hon. S. N. Pinney then made a
few appropriate remarks. He said
that he would not dwell on
the governors relation with his family
or with men, but the thoughts which
occurred to him at the time related to a
higher trust-hls relations to the state.

CONDUCTORS TEMPLE.
Progress on the Railway Mems
Building at Sioux City.
Special to the Globe

Special to the Globe
Sioux CITY, To-, July 23.-Railroad
conductors all over the country are in
terested in knowing just what progress
is being made toward the erection of
their temple, over the location of which
there was such a spirited contest in
Denver couple of months ago, Sioux
City proving the successful bidder
against DcS MoineS and Cedar Rapids.
The plans for the building have been
drawn. and are now in the hands of the
proper committee for approval. Some
slight changes will possibly be made in
the details. but practically they are al
building has been secured at cost of
$4,000, and substantial pledges given
for the remaining S35, 0C0 of the $4,000
guarantee given by the Sioux City men
at Denver last spring. The building
will be seven stories high, the first two
stories being of Sioux Falls granite,
and the rest of pressed brick.
1t is probable that st. Louis
Roman brick will be used. which,
as every one probably knows. are
longer and narrower than common
brick. The first floor of the building
will be occupied by banks and insur-
ance, OF other offices OF like nature, the
second, fourth and fifth floors by offices
for professional men, the third floor for
the offices of the order. The sixth and
seventh stories will be given over en-
tirely to the assembly hall of the order,
which will be so arranged as to seat
500 people. with desks. on the first floor,
and $50 on the balcony. Around the
hall are Hobbies and committee rooms,
so as convention hall it will have no
superior in the West. The hall is pretty
we'll up skyward, but the building has
four elevators. with a capacity of eight
teen persons each, and these. of course,
will be used at all times of the day and
night if necessary. The architectural
design is very pretty, and the building
will be built on very convenient plan.
The location is on Sixth and Jackson
streets, two blocks from Fourth street,
the main business thOroughfare. and is
on the line of the new cable road. AS
to the rental, s per cent is guaranteed
by the citizens of Sioux City, so that no
uneasiness is felt on that score. 1t is
planned to begin work at once.

The big salt combination, which does
not like to call itself a trust, claims
that it will control all the $50 or more
salt companies in the country, and be
able to declare liberal dividends. There
is not much doubt on that point. That
is one of the features of trusts. 1t is to
be modelled after and have utilization
with the English trust that was able to
declare 10 per cent dividend the first
six months. 1t is not surprising that
the stock sells at a premium. The
monopoly organs are trying to make
capital out of the fact that W. r. BURT,
the late Democratic candidate for gov
ernor of Michigan, is one of the trustees
of this combine. In his canvass last
year he took ground squarely for tariff
reform, and advocated putting salt, lum-
Der. wool, and other raw materials and
necessaries on the free list. Selfish in
terests have led him to compromise his
principles, but he is not peculiar in
this. 1t will not deter any Democrat
from voting next winter to put salt on
the free list. AS the trust is to take in
Canada, this may not seriously affect it.

idly Without a Crush.
Of the great crowd which atten ded at
Hamline the majority were from st..
Paul. University avenue, from Mime
apolis, and Summit, University and
Como, from st. Paul, were, early in the
afternoon, crowded with vehicles on
their way to the grounds. A constant
stream of carriages turned into Smelling
avenue from the east and west, and
1900 persons found the track in this
way. Those who went by rail had
nothing to complain of, and for the
first time in the history of tanning
crowds bound for the fair or pleasure
resorts, on public holidays, have the
railroad facilities been adequate. At
/ o'clock the union depot was uncom-
fortably full of people, anxious to board
the first afternoon train for the
grounds. In the forenoon the trains
were run every two hours, but at l
o'clock trains of seven and eight
This wise prOnisiOn afforded all an OPP
portunity to reach the grounds without
the tedious waiting during long in
tervals. The cars were packed, never
theleSs, but in taking the human freight
out in insJallmentS and at such frequent
intervals, the rush at the gates was
avoided, and all had ample and easy
time to get to the grand stand.
The instant the last horse crossed the
wire in the last race the rabble began,
as the great concourse shook itself
from the benches andsmade break for
the train. For fifteen minutes the
exodus extended from grand stand to
depot, where the usual jam occurred
that one is so sure to meet with during
the fair. 1t must be said, however,
that matters went much smoother, and
police discipline was much better than
was ever before seen On the fair
grounds. Everything was guarded by
officers, and knowing what to do, they
did it well. By 7 o'clock everybody was
back and the day was ended-nOt even
the slightest accident marring it.
