$1,000 MATCHRACE
Van v and Stratford May Trot
In This City,


Considerable excitement has been
caused during the past two weeks by
rumors of match race for 500 side
between the celebrated trotting stall
lion Van V, owned by a Granite Falls
syndicate, and the equally celebrated
stallion, Stratford, owned by DR.. Price
of St. Paul.
There has been more or less bad
blood shown between the managers
of the two stations for the past sever
al weeks, and the Granite Falls own
ers, it is claimed, have proposed the
match race, to occur at the Redwood
Falls race course some time next
week. Word has been received from
DIR. Price to the effect that ne is will
ing to enter Stratford for $500 side
and citizens purse, the race to occur
on the Redwood track.
That good special purse can be
raised there is no doubt.
Secretary Dornberg is now in cor
respondence with the two managers
and every indication points to the race
being held next week or the week
after.

KANSAS WHEAT CROP.

Grain men are almost unanimous
in their belief that instead of Secre-
tary of State Mobler being correct in
his estimate that the wheat crop of
Kansas is 100000 bushels this
year, that the total will not fall short
of 100000 more.
There are many reasons for form
ing this estimate. Mr.. Mohler esti-
mated the average yield per acre to
be 1873, and to offset this figure,
from the best sources of information
to be had on Change, the yield will
be much larger. Reports from the
interior show some fields to give the
enormous yield of so bushels per
acre, and at no office could it be
learned that a field had been cut
with yield as low as that given out
by the secretary of state.
Another thing which makes the
crop look larger is the weight. All
new wheat, with but one or two iso-
lated exceptions, is grading No. 2,
and. is weighing out from So to SO
pounds, whereas the crop weights of
list year ran only from As to 90. No
Que disputes, nor do the figures of
the Kansas secretary of state show
to the contrary, that the acreage this
year is any less than that of 1891,
and this increased weight alone,
bushel for bushel, would put the
yield TO the very handsome figure of
100000 more than the 100000
given.
In the matter Of acreage, too, there
is a discrepancy. One grain firm
was advised by a customer that he
had 100 acres in wheat, and it after
wards developed that he had as much
again almost. At least three other
frma haxa mad a similar discoveries.

THE ROCK ISLAND.

We are reliably informed that the
Rock Island railroad has material at
Liberal, Kansas, its present south
western terminus, to build to and
west of the Dry Cimarron in this
county, and that work on its execu-
ton will begin very soon. The
building of this line through the
county has been anxionsly looked for
during the past four or five years,
and its probable route has been a
matter for considerable speculation.
1t is the opinion of the best informed
men of this county that the best and
cheapest route after crossing the
Dry Cimarron, is south of Sierra
Grande, thence via Point of Rocks
and following the old trail of the
early freighters, crossing Red river
near the mouth of the Cimarron, up
the north bank of that stream, and
entering the mountains through the
Cimarron canon-an easy grade the
entire distance.-Springer Stock

UNION PACIFIC TELEaRApHERs.

The representatives of the Order
of Railway Telegraphers of the
Union Pacific, who for the past 80
days have been having a luxurious
time in Omaha, have been accorded
an interview with Supt. Korty, of the
Union Pacific. 1t is understood that
since their coming to Omaha the
schedule which they proposed origi-
nally to submit to the powers that
be has been materially changed, and
that there now is good ground for
believing that many of their requests
will be granted, provided they do not
conflict with precedents made in this
department. 1t is we'll known that
many operators OH the system are
poorly paid, but this fact may not
have been called to the attention of
the superintendent heretofore, so that
it looks as if the presence of the tele-
graphers in Omaha would be a sort
of enlightenment campaign. Another
session will be held soon. Since the
conference the men appear greatly
pleased, but maintain great secrecy.

A BAD YEAR FOR RAILROADS.

In its next issue the Railway Age
and Northwestern Railroader will
give a review of the railroad fore
closure sales and receiverships dur
ing the first six months of 1892. 1t
appears that during the period be-
tween January and July fourteen
companies, representing 1888 miles
of road, and nearly $63,ooO,oOo of
bonded debt and capital stock, were
sold out for the purpose of reorgani-
cation. The most important road in
the list is the Florida Southern, with
over 800 miles of line. During the
same period "a railroad companies,
with 9,179 miles of road and repre-
senting bonds and stocks to the
amount of 5000, 100000, became in
solvent and were placed in charge of
receivers for the benefit of their
creditors.
In respect to mileage and capitali-
cation, these aggregates for six
months are far greater than those
for any 70 months for many years.
The greatness of these figures is due
largely to the misfortune of the sew
eral railway companies comprised in
the corporation known as the Rich
mond & Westpoint Terminal rail
way and Warehouse company, repre-
senting a capitalization of sol, $780,
900, of which $l6,5oO,OOO was in
bonds and $75,Ooo,oOo in capital
stock. 1t controlled and operated
5000 miles of railway, besides sew
eral hundred miles of steamship line.

GENERAL DlAz's ELECTION.

The reelection of Gen. Diaz as
president of Mexico is an event of
some interest to the United States.
During his long service at the head
of affairs in the southwestern repub-
lie he has been an earnest and pow
erful friend of this country. Every
project to increase the trade between
the two nations has found in him
prompt and resolute championship.
Several schemes Of this sort origin
ated with himself. He has through
out his career been a fast friend to
American enterprise. So far as his
influence has extended in his country
and it is virtually supreme In that
domain, American capital and talent
have been favored in his dominions
as compared with those of other out
siders. Europeans have noted and
frequently commented on this condi-
ton of things. The citizens of the
United States who establish any
business enterprise III Mexico, and
who carefully observe the laws and
customs of the country, are sure of
receiving especial consideration at
the hands of the authorities. There
has been a great change in this direc-
ton within the past I5 years, and
Gen. Diaz has been the chief instru-
ment in bringing it about. In pro-
gressiveness and administrative
capacity he stands at the head of the
whole list of Mexican executives

The decision of the secretary of
the interior may mean years of It'll
cation yet before the title is settled,
in which case it will pay the citizens
of Las Vegas to pack up and move
on, and most of them will do so, as
hundreds have already done, getting
too tired of sitting around waiting
for something to be done. Most of
the parties who are claimants have
said that, in order to build up the
city, they would, if necessary, with
draw their claims to the grant. If
these parties are in earnest why do
they not acquiesce in the decision
rendered and not try to reverse it by
carrying the matter into the courts !?
If this is done it would quiet the
