Proposition to Build One at State Expense

Proposition to Build One at State Expense
in Kansas.
KANSAS City. April 11.-Since the Farm
ers' alliance took hold of affairs in Kansas,
many surprising things have been done,
but the most unique and daring plan that
has yet been evolved by that body is the re-
ported scheme to build trunk railroad
line across the state. 1t IS expected that
this proposition will be made the issue of
the next political fight in Kansas by the
alliance. The plan is for the state govern
ment to construct a trunk line about 300
miles long, and for the counties to build a
network of branches that will touch every
important point in the state. President
McGrath, of the Kansas alliance, when
asked about the plan, was very reticent,
but admitted that such scheme was under
consideration by the alliance. Several rail-
way men We're interviewed concerning the
farmers' scheme. They regarded it as
wholly impracticable and visionary.

Kentucky's New Constitution.

LOUISVILLE April 1.-THE Kentucky
constitutional convention to-day COM
pleted the constitution to be offered and
adjourned, after being in session 199 days.
1t has cost 100000, and made very many
ch anges in tho old fundamental law of the
sta te. Some of these are recognized as wise
but very many are untried, and
are considered of uncertain benefit.
The new constitution will be opposed
by many strong public men, and may be
rejected by the people when voted upon in
August. The new constitution, among
other things, forbids armed persons to be
brought into the state except upon applica-
tion by the general assembly; revokes all
lottery charters, and prohibits such privi-
leges; provides for secret official ballot
modelled on the Australian system.

Duty on Grain lmpOrte d.

WASHINGTON. April H.--Assistant Secre-
tary Spaulding has informed the collector
of customs at San Diego, CAL, that the gov
ernment has no authority to extend the
provisions of articles 453 and 454, general
regulations, as to grain imports from
Mexico to be ground and returned, for the
reason that the law under which said repu-
lationswere prescribed, viz, the act ofJune9 9,
1888, is applicable only to grain imported
from Canada. The regulations provide for
the free entry of grain imported from
Canada for grinding in mills owned by
citizens of the United States and then re-
turned. Duty, however, is exacted on such
portion of grain as is retained by mill own
ers as toll for grinding.

The Big MINIS at bonner.

These mills, seven miles east of Missoula,
yned and controlled by the Plackfoot
2lling and Manufacturing company are
p largest in the northwest, and cover a
ace of ground in the beautiful Blackfoot
lley of 4S0 acres, on which are located the
ige saw and planning mills, dry kilns fac
ties, offices, lumber yards and some thr-
-four houses occupied by families EN-
pyed ana nine larger houses used as the
b single mems quarters. There is also a
rye two story school building just east of
g company's store which is, on Sundays,
fused for divine services at times for public
meetings and entertainments and during
the winter months once in Il while turned
into place of enjoyment and Is then used
for dances and other social entertainments.
The Blackfoot valley is the most important
saw mill and Numbering section of Montana
and is densely timbered with pine, fir and
tamerac. At the Bonner mills there is at
al! times a stock of from one to one
hundred aud fifty million feet of lumber
piled in the yards. The mills have ca
pacity of 125,000 feet per day, and employ
IN average of $50 men in various yocations,
when working only one shift. During the
part of the summer months both day and
1iRht shifts are employed and thereby the
number of employees are increased to twice
that amount.
Six months in the year, from Oct. to
March l., during the logging season, there
are engaged in logging at the seven camps
of the company from $50 to $40 men, to-
gether with some eighty teams. Last year
the Bonner mills cut 81 100000 feet of lum-
ber.
There is manufactured here everything
in the way of store, Office and saloon fix
tures, desks and cabinets, made of both the
pine and tamerac, while in the past year
several large contracts for hard wood fix
tures and furniture were turned out.
The company has lately added
some very extensive improvements to it's
plant, by placing in the manufacturing de-
partment several of the latest improved
pieces of machinery among them new
heavy dimension lumber planer. which will
plane timber l2x30 on four sides at one
time. A new door planer, jointer and one
of the latest designed heavy band planners.
A large addition to the saw mill is now be-
ing erected and several pieces of new heavy
machinery will be placed in position in a
few days.
The principal production of this nam
moth institution is heavy mining and rail
road timbers. Most of the tinbers used in
mines at Butte, Anaconda, Phlipsburg,
Granite and the smelter at Great Falls are
shipped from these mills.

THE OUTLOOK FOR SILVER.

The outlook for silver seems to be
improving. The urfavorable financial
situation in London had depressing
influence on the silver market, aud
caused slight decline in the quotation
for bars. India exchanges were also
depressed for the same reason, while
the speculation in silver certificates
hero also took hearish tone in
sympathy with the tendencies If the
STARE market. 1t is claimed, however,
that the London market is now bare
of silver, that the DEMAND from tie
East will become heavy within a
short time, and that the outcome of
the financial troubles in Portugal and
the Argentine Republic will be the
putting of those countries on silver
basis.
