they need at present, and most of
them acknowledge that fact. At
one station along tho line where n
great deal of wheat is shipped, the
superintendent of the storehouse
told me that the farmers were per-
fectly satisfied with the way things
were going; that the price OF wheat
wasn't falling, as they had been
afraid 1t would, and, in fact, many
of tho farmers We're making no at
tempt to ship their wheat vt present.
1.-THE cars nre very evenly divided
throughout the wheat district, and
these complaints coming in from
certain towns that certain other
towns are favored by the railroads Is
all bosh IL Is our object to ship all
the wheat as fast us we can and not
to favor one town any more than
another
In speaking of the recent change
in the time table of the Union

many people complained about the
change, he thought that the majority
were we'll pleased, as they could

WHEAT BLOCKADE.
Travelling Passenger Agent Hill,
of the u. P, Talks on
the Subject.
He Says the Blockade Is Exagger-
ated-There Are Not Ships
Enough.

Mr.. George II. Hill. travelling
passenger agent of the Pacific
division of the Union Pacific
railroad, is stopping at the Mer-
chants hotel in this city. Mr.
Hill has been travelling cxtcn-
sively through the wheat districts
of this state, and has given much
attention to the complaints made
by the farmers about the railroads
not furnishing sufficient transpor-
tation facilities for their wheat.
Mr.. Hill was seen by q REVIEW
reporter yesterday, aud in response
to the question, wv hat do you think
of the wheat blockade?n said:
81 have just come through the
wheat districts of this state, and
while I have nothing to do with
the handling of the freight on the
line, | was naturally curious to
know how much truth there was
in the reports that the farmers are
complaining about the transporta-
ton facilities. In many cases
find that the truth is greatly
stretched, and there are few,
if any complaints, from the
farmers. In other cases the
storehouses are full and the
railroads have not enough cars to
relieve the pressure. Our road Is
doing the best 1t can. We have
ordered more cars and shall move
the wheat rs fast as 1T is possible to
do 80.
''Another reason why the wheat Is
not moved faster Is that there are
not enough ships on the coast to re-
ceive the large quantities that ore
already there. We have been
obliged to ship a great deal to San
Francisco by steamer in order to re-
iieve the strain.
Suppose, for instance, we should
put on thousand more cars and
run them ns fast as we could, IL
would be impossible to find the
ships to carry The grain away and
the consequence wonld be worse
blockade than at present. We are
doing what we can, and i believe
the Northern Pacific Is also working
the wheat off as fast as possible.
'People are always kicking, and
they take especial delight in kick
ing at the railroads, hut in this case
the railroads are not to blame. The
farmers are getting all the facilities

WANT MAIL SUNDAY, TOO.

Tho Cnur d'Aleno Towns Present a
Petition to That Effect
A petition has been received by
the postal authorities asking that n
Sunday mail service be allowed in
the Cnur d'Alene country. At pres
ent there is a daily train, but the
railway company does not haul
Uncle Sans cars behind its engine
on the Sabbath. This is not due to
any religious feeling on the COM
pany's part, for corporations are
notoriously soulless, but is owing to
AN omission in the mail contract.
Yesterday Postmaster Arthur j..
Shaw advised the superintendent of
the postal service al San Francisco
of the state of affairs, and inclored
the petition in his letter.
The new route will benefit the
towns of Wardner, Osburn, Wal
lace, Burke, and several others in
the CGur d'Alene mining district.

A LOCKER on IN VENICE.
THE TRAIN SERVICE.

Still Another Complaint From the
Cpur d'Alenes.
To THE EDITOR OF TIE REVIEW:
MULLAN, idaho, Nov. 25.-I
notice with great satisfaction your
editorial calling the attention of
the Spokane board of trade to the
wants of the Cmur d'Alenes. We
think, with you, that the people of
Spokane should take up the matter
of train service and add what in
fluence they can to remedy the
present utter lack of adequate
service. The present passen ger
time table of the Union Pacific
gives us the very worst service we
have had, and our people are fully
alive to its drawbacks. The citi-
zens of Wardner and Mullan (and
| am creditably informed of
Wallace and Burke, as WELL are
signing petitions to the Union
Pacific officials, asking for train
service in keeping with our wants
1t remains to be seen II they can
afford to ignore our request. Why
can the board of trade of Spokane
not help us by making such repre-
sentations to the Union Pacific
Company as will give us train
each way, and to run daily?
Passengers going from here to
Portland must be all night at
Tckoa; the same coming back.
Passengers from the East remain at
Pendleton twenty-five hours and
ut Iekoa seventeen hours waiting
for connections. How can the
Union Pacific expect our people To
give them business? We gladly
hailed the advent of their line into
the mines rs u relief to us, but,
while their cars are more comfort
able and pleasant to travel in, the
service is such That we must, unless
a change is made, 20 by the old
narrow gauge. The people to and
from Wallace are compelled to ride
in u freight caboose, pulled by an
engine running backwards in its
down trip, and their baggage is
thrown In and carried on an engine
tender among the coal used for
fuel This is rather primitive
way to do business on railway
that makes any pretentions to be-
ing first-class. We don't appreciate
such service, and will continue to
complain until an Improvement Is

Another Complaint From the Mines
Against the Union Pacific
Train Service.
SpoI<ANE FALLS, Nov, q

SPOKANE FALLS, Nov. 25.
To THE EDIroG or THE REVIEW:
Ben Hogan's criticism on what
men eat and seem willing to eat Is
good one, but not perhaps entire
y deserving.
Unfortunately humanity is so
constituted that In order to live 1t
must eat, and doubtless millions of
people, dependent OH Restaurants
and hotels for their meals bolt down
unpalatable food in n hurry simply
because they know no other place
where they could do better. 1t is
safe to say that not one restaurant
or hotel in II hundred, on,the Pacific
slope, serves good meals as under
stood by any man who has been
well raised in the East. A gentle
man, fatigued and hungry from the
cares of business, drops into II So
called restaurant" in hopes to find
something good to eat, If he calls
for nice beefsteak it comes on with
flavor to remind one of an anti
quated bull on the verge of starva-
ton which has fallen over preci-
pice or been run over by freight
train. If he calls for ham and eggs,
the ham will be II aself-raised one and
also seli-cured, as he may judge by
the smell before it reaches
him, and the eggs are of
the undecided sort-whether
to be or not to be-a chicken. If he
calls for mutton chops 1t will be u
remnant of u tame Rocky mountain
sheep, the last of his race, and the
only one able to survive the "worst
winter known to the oldest inhab-
liant" If he calls for chicken there
will be an indefinable something
about it which suggests the idea that
1t was killed in hurry to prevent
its dying of cholera Ifduck, 1t will
be au old dead one, which was
wounded by the hunter, then killed
by the dog in the brush, and not
found until the next week, by some
small boys, who sold it cheap pro
bono publico. The corn bread is
made out OF sawdust, the buckwheat
cakes of pulveri2ed wrapping paper
and the chocolate of broWn-ston
dust and tan bark, equal parts. The
cook is heather Chinee who spits
in the bread, or drunken vagabond
who hasn't changed his shirt since
the Chicago fire. The waiter has not
yet recovered from his last nights
debauch, and don't know the
difference between vinegar and
California claret, and don't
care II -. Such are some
of the inducements held out by the
average eating house to the hungry
business man and the wayfaring
man to come in and partakc OF
these bounteous hospitality. A few
good eating houses serving nothing
but the best and purest food, well
and scientifically cooked and served
by nice, pleasant, clean people would
do more to build up a first-class
town than millions of money eX-
pended in booming, with no lacili-
ties on hand for putting the stranger
in good humor and keeping him
there.

JUST A LITTLE OFF
That Was tho Courts Decision in
the Case of Missionary
Appletrad,
A Belief That There Is Method in
the Attempt to Prove
Him Mad.

w. III. Applctrad, who has been
accused of being insane, was ques-
toned Tuesday upon his views re-
garding the coming Of the Messiah.
The old gentleman Is a Swede, and
the services of an interpreter were
found necessary to elicit the facts of
the case that were in his own pos
session.
He replied by referring his ques.
TONERS to several verses In the holy
scriptures, adding in the language of
the Svensk, "1hems my senti.
ments." He regards the future
as sealed book, he says
and while he trusts implicitly
in the second coming of his Savior,
he has not ns yet fixed the date ac-
curately. He was questioned very
closelo, but his Views were not
out of the ordinary run of those
who are very fervid on religious
subjects.
just one year, to day, before the
great fire the old gentleman, with
with his paternal air and long gray
whiskers, came to the coast from
Kansas rs n missionary among his
people. For some time after his ar-
rival he peddled tracts and books
on religious subjects, Then the
cold days of winter came. He be-
came ill and indigcnt. Some hind
ladies cared for him, and u short
time ago placed him in the Home
for the Friendless.
At the examination Miss McCul-
Tough, the uatron of the home, tes-
titled in n piccolo voice that "the
man was just perfectly off," He
swore at her frequently, she said,
and called her q - liar. He didn't
come to dinner when he was called.
That alone was proof that he was
insane, she thought.
The doctors asked the old man
whether 1t was u part of his creed TO
kill people who didn'tlove the Lord,
and whether he considered himself
u vice-regent of God, thereby render
ing an injury to himself, a personal
insult to the deity, punishable by
death.
He replied meekly, in his native
toungue, that his mission was one
of peace, and his motto the golden
rule.
Ten years ago Mr. Appletrad sold
n farm i'm Kansas for $1,000. A
townsite has since been built upon
it and II has increased in value
many times over. There are u few
people who think that by establish
ing his mental unsoundness the
deed may be cancelled. His son-in-
law Is one of these. A few mem bers
of the Ladies' Benevolent Society
believe that there Is IA bug under
the chip. They protested strongly
against his commitment One
lady testified that he was as sane as
she was.
The old man has written In
Swedish an exposition of the reve-
latlons. He recently submitted 1t
to II minister of his denomination
and requested that II be translated.
Several witnesses weie examined
yesterday. The result of the inquiry
was the following verdict, rendered
by Judge Harrison:
"There are many evidences of in
sanity in the case. 1t seems, how
ever, to be of n harmless variety,
and the crowded condition of the
Steilacoom asylum leads me to dis
charge him."
The old man appeared to catch
the import of the words. "Glory
to God" he said in broken English.
Otherwise he was unmoved.
Annie Fowler was examined and
was adjudged to be sane enough to
stay away from Stcilacoom.

ISLAND POND, VERMONT. JUNE 10, 1890.

Western we're sufficient TO condemn them,
regardless OF any knowledge as TO their
value
Here again the HERALD is in error.
To show Mr.. Pages real position upon
this point we quote from his recon-
mendations to the legislature in 1888,
although it has appeared recently in our
columns. Whether this is good finance
or not, the people of Vermont will have
to decide. The subject is one pregnant
with interest at this time in view Of recent
developments in the matter of Western
mortgages.
The large rates Of interest which Western
borrowers are able 10 offer are too attractive
for the ordinary investor to Withstand, and
funds received for the fine line ofgovernment
and municipal bonds which have been ma
turing during the past few years, have been
reinvested, In by far too mauy instances, In
Western mortgages. To show the tendency
in this direction your attention is respectful
ly called to the following facts, shown by
the savings bank reports for the past ten
years. The amounts of Western mortgages
held by the savings banks of Vermont
on the 30th day Of June In the years 1870 to
1893 inclusive were as follows.
