WHAT IS 1T WORTHo

Even if it proves in the end that some
lymph or other device for checking a
class of diScOmfortS in life fails to fill
the mission assigned it, the stimulus
given the mental forces will keep them
alert and reaching out all the time.
One failure may lead to a greater sue
cess. There may be unhappy work
by the microscope, and the delivers into
the little things that look frig htful when
presented in the magnified form. The
brO0dS of the Invisible germs that carry
disease about may alarm more when the
scientists insist that they are actual and
baleful, but in spite of a good deal of
increasing information calculated to
make existence uncomfortable, life is
becoming better worth living every
year. Probably most people who have
passed fifty years regret that their
parents were not thoughtful enough to
delay their advent into the world about
thirty or forty years. They are curious
to know, and would experience the new
and multiplied phases Of the terrestrial
career. In one of the recent magazines
The question is discussed whether peo-
pie would eject to live their lives over
again if the option were theirs. The i'll
luiry need not be had of any in the first
forty years of life. They would not re-
trace the past, as they have not quite
left the dreams of life. They expect to
find long years of brighter life in the
unfolding to come. 1t may be that the
erson in advanced years would hes
,tate to give a decided answer to
the query. Age does not neces-
sarly weaken the relish for exist
ence, but the thoughtful response would
be that repetition of the half century
or so would not be chosen if all the de-
tails were to be repeated. Whole years
perhaps would be left out, and host of
experiences, scattered along in nearly all
its eras, would be turned from with a
shudder. Still, if a person could go
through this life second time with a
panorama before the eyes of the first
passage, it is not certain that there

GLOBE TOWER SHOTS.

The benefit TO the St Paul Press club. on
Friday, was success in all that III e WORD
implies. A column might well be written of
the brilliant audience which packed the
Metropolitan theater from footligh is 10 coves
ana the superb programme with which that
audience was entertained-but all that has
been sufficiently dwelled upon. There is
oheCpolnt made prominent by that bene fit,
mat might well adorn an object lesson; 1t is
that not only did the Pioneer Press not lend
Its aid to the affair, in any shape, but was
bitterly and childishly hostile to it, from be-
ginning to end. 1t is not the purpose of the
G1cBE to go into the cause which led to
this hostility, for we do not believe in
noticing insignificant affairs but the
fact remains that without the aid and against
the opposition of that paper. the Metropolitan
theater was filled by the most magnificent
audience that has graced it since its opening.
The GLoRE, assisted by the other dailies of
II. Paul, literally advertised the benefit and
the result speaks for itself. There were no
about the city. and that fine audience was
due solely to judicious advertising. in which
the Pioneer Press was excluded. This is
written III no envious spirit, but simply as a
query: If that audience was the result of
advertising, what value can be placed upon
the columns of Il paper which pettishly OPP
posed ii with this result?

GENERAL OBSERVATIONS.
St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1891-03-22
NOT GREAT ADVANTAGE.

1t is matter Of high exultatiOn to the
admirers of protection as illustrated in
the new tariff, that the manufacturers
of a few articles most discriminate
against propose to remove their plants
to this country to escape the duties.
They will bring their machinery and
workmen, and manufacture the articles
on this side of the water. 1t is not al
legged that the articles they manufacture
will be sold to the consumers at any less
price in consequence of their removal,
but the tariff enables those who can
escape the duties to realize big profits,
and they propose to take advantage of
the opportunity. The government re-
ceipts will be diminished by the loss of
these duties and the deficiency must be
made up by the American people, On
the whole, there is no great occasion for
hiiarity if few old world plants are
brought over to escape the tariff duties.

Reorganizing.

Special to the Gazette.
NEW YORK, Oct. 15.-Another effort is to
be made TO complete the reorganization of
the International and Great Northern rail-
road. A meeting of directors has approved
the new plan, and with the assent of the
stockholders it will be offered for consid-
GRAFTON to the bondholders. The stock is
held equally by jay Gould and the Mis-
souri,, Kansas and Texas railroad company.
Acceptance of the plan will prevent fore
closure and result in the speedy return of
the property to the company from the
hands Of the receiver. The plan agreed
upon last summer, which was abandoned
subsequently, provided for the funding of
past due interest
The first default on the first mortgage
bonds was made in May, 1889, and default
on the seconds was made in September,
1883. Since last summer the September
coupon on the second mortgage bonds has
been passed, and one upon the first falls due
November l. The stockholders have in
sisted that these corporations should alse
be funded, but there has been an objection
on the part of the bondholders. The new
plan of reorganization now offered to the
bondholders provides for the funding of
these coupons over which the dispute has
lasted. Half of the claims of the first mort
gage bondholders will be paid in checks and
half in preference bonds. The second
mortgage bondholders will receive their
proportion in preference bonds, but no
cash. The board of directors of the COM
pany meet on Saturday for the first time
since the injunction laid upon it by the
Texas court about two years ago. A. l..
Hopkins was relieved, and Howard Gould
was chosen in his place. The rest of the
board remains as before.

Il Lot of News that is Not News-SOme-
thing and Nothing.
Of course all interest is centered in the
affairs of the Corpus Christi and South
American railroad. and while it seems
some news ought TO be obtainable
therefrom every day, it is very hard
TO get. says the Corpus Christi Caller.
The storm center, speaking in rainnlakers'
English, is still At Victoria, where the at
torneys of the company are engaged in
passing on the subscriptions lately raised
and making ready to s. gn the contract
when the money shall have been placed in
bank. So though il is probable that the
affair will be close there, still some unlucky
chance may delay matters. OF course it is
well known that if Victoria places in the
bank her splendid donation of $50, coo work
will be commenced there at once, as a
northery connection is promised within
ninety days.
At the Corpus Christi end of the road
everything looks encouraging. 1t was ru-
mored all over the streets yesterday that a
large surveying party would leave this
morning TO survey towards Victoria, the
southern line through the Driskill pastures
having been ready for the contractors and
grading for two months. This rumor
lacked verification, although the Caller
was informed 1t headquarters .iat Mr..
Baker, the chief surveying engineer, was
busy making all preparations to start out
and would leave some time soon. nothing
definite however, could be ascertained. In
fact, it may be stated with reasonable cor
rectness that nothing definite is known
here at the present time, only that the road
is TO be built to Brownsville with all posi-
bic speed.

New Railroad Yards.

At the Office of the chief engineer of the
Missouri, Kansas and Texas railway III this
city plans are being prepared for railroad
yards in Denison that are by far the largest
in all Texas and among the most convenient
and comprehensive in the United States.
These plans would locate the yards on the
west side of the city, between the Sherman,
Denison and Dallas and the Fort Worth di-
visions, and call for the use of tract of
land one mile and half long and on an
average 300 feet wide. They have tifty-tive
miles of tracks and capacity for handling
an enormous freight traffic. II the yards
should be located there the shops would not
be moved from their present location, nor
would a single building be removed, nor a
track. for that matter, from where the lat
ter now are. But all freight trains would
pass around the west side of town. a con-
nection being made below DeniSon hill with
be done there. thus obviating most of the
danger of accidents and annoyances to bust
ness interests now experienced.
Plans for the location OF the yards in the
river bottom have also been prepared.
They show a yard equally as extensive as
the one before mentioned. This yard would
begin about three-quarters of 4 mile this
side of the railroad bridge and include q
narrow strip of land extending mile and
half or more toward the city. This plan. it
is said, meets with more favor than the
other in the minds of some of the officials
of the road but we should regret to see the
yards located there The location on the
west side would be far better for the de-
velopment and best general interests of
DeniSon, far heather for the employees of
the road, and. we should suppose, decidedly
the most practical and advantageous for
the railroad company Denison Herald.

West. The Burlington Route is the name
of tirst-clasS railroad from Chicago, Peo-
ria and ST. Louis to and between the prin-
cipal cities and towns of Illinois, Iowa.
Missouri. Wisconsin, Minnesota, Nebraska
and Colorado. The 1000 miles of this great
road pass into and through the best farm
ing regions OF these great states, reach
Deadwood, So. Dakota. and the new mining
country of the Black Hills. Along the lines
of the Burlington Route are the best oppor-
tunities in the West, Northwest ard South
west, for the farmer, the manufacturer
the merchant, the miller, the miner and
the pleasure seeker.
The Burlington Route runs through pas
senger trains every day in the year between
St Louis, Chicago and Peoria. Kansas
City, Atchison, St. Joseph, Council Bluffs,
Omaha, Lincoln, Denver, st. Paul and Mir
neapolis, making connections at these
