THE jamestown papers have been pub.
fishing a. 'cock-and>bulp' story to the
effect that the 500 road will abandon it's
line from the James river west to Mo-
mango and Its grade through the "dry
counties to Bismarck, take up the IRON
and build line to jamestown. AS EN-
mons is one of the..dry counties" referred
to, we respectfully submit for the consid:
Grafton of our Jimtown brethren the fol-
lowing comparisons between Stutsman
and this county:

1t will not take much figuring to show
that Emmons, with its 1,O46 people in
1885, IS a better producer, according to
population. than Stutsman. with her
5,832 1t must be borne in mind, also,
that our farmers know that every bushel
of grain they raise must be hauled out of
the county and half way across another
to market. The jamestown people may
rest assured that the "dry counties are
alright, and that the 500 line will be
.ironed to Bismarck in duo time.

After leaving here last week the party
of railroad officials drove out to the
Campbell sheep ranch, and thence to Ma.
poleon, and followed the grade from that
place TO the southeast. They expressed
themselves to County Treasurer Campbell
as much pleased with the country, and
stated that the grade would surely be
ironed next spring; that, If the crops
were better, it would be done at once.
Barney Flynn, of Bismarck, who drove
the party, returned through Williamsport.
He stated that the railroad men were we'll
pleased with the country tributary to
the proposed grade, and that they ex.
pressed themselves strongly in favor of
putting down the iron. Whatever may
be the outcome, our people are glad that
the officials of the great 500 system haye
not forgotten that they own railroad
grade out IN this part of the country.

NEW YORK'S CHANCES.

Republicans Confident of Holding Their
Own In the State.
NEW YoRK, Nov. 3.-The election in
New York State tomorrow is for Judge
of the Court Of Appeals, two Justices Of
the Supreme Court thirty-four members
OF Congress and members OF the Assem-
bly,. Robert Earl, the present incum-
bent, is the nominee for the Court OF
Appeals Judgesbip on both the Repub-
lican and Democratic tickets. As this
ia the only Office to be filed on the gen.
oral State ticket, there is little, If any,
interest in the general vote.
The Pfohibitionistsa and Socialists labor
party have candidates in the field but
the votes for these will hardly be an ap.
preciable extent. The interest centers
therefore in the vote for congressman
and also for members OF the Assembly,
as the next Legislature will select q sue
cessor to Senator Evarts. The New York
delegation in the Fifty.frst Congress
consists OF nineteen Republicans and
fifteen Democrats. The Democrats are
hopeful OF making some gains, but the
1tcpupHCnAo aiS SvuhlIJ COuuueuL tuAt
they will hold their own If not
increase their number. The State SEN
ate holds over. In this the Republicans
have nineteen, the Democrats thirteen.
To secure majority on joint ballot the
Democrats must elect sixty.eight assem-
blymen, while the Republicans require
only sixty-two. In the last assembly
the Republicans had seventy.one and
the Democrats fi(ty.seven. While the
Democrats have been making strenuous
efforts to etcure enough votes
to elect Senator, there is
little probability that they will
succeed. Much more popular interest
attaches 10 the vote for municipal olIi.
GERS in New York City than to the State
election. The contest is between the
Tammany ticket, headed by Mayor
Grant, and the Peoples Municipal
League ticket, headed by Francis NJ.
Scott, a County Democrat, and contain
ing both Republican and Democratic
names. The latter ticket has been en-
dorsed by tho Republican party and the
County Democracy.
