pared With I8eI--Future
Prospects

A table of new railway construction
in the United States in the six months
ending June 80 is printed in the Rail-
way Age of last week. In its intro
ductory remarks the paper says that
the unusually wet weather makes the
work of the six months hardly a fair
indication of the probable work of the
year, and adds:
The previous year showed the smallest
aggregate of tracklaying-4,200 miles
that has been reported In this country
since 1885, and there has been no reason to
expect any great change for ls92. Finan-
cial conditions have not been favorable TO
the Inauguration Of large railway enter
prises, nor is there much occasion for
adding to the number OF trunk lines at
present, although there are vast areas In
this country which will eventually de-
mand great railways. But, on the other
hand, the existing railways are constantly
being invited to build short branches ana
extensions, and the work now In progress
Is largely OF this character.

Local Notes

II. J. Smith, the hardware merchant,
was arrested late Friday afternoon by
Officer Gloster for threatening his wife
with a pistol and creating a general
disturbance in the vicinity Of his resi-
dence. He passed the night in Jail and
was brought before Judge Winn yester-
day morning and placed under 500
bonds to keep the peace. Attorney
Rawson, who is at present acting for
Mrs. Smith i'm her efforts TO secure a
divorce, appeared for Smith, and
through his efforts the matter was
brought directly before the superior
court instead Of first passing through
the police court. Smith is said TO be
in the habit of going on periodical
sprees and when under the influence of
liquor is disposed TO be very quarrel
some. Mrs. Smith recently made an
application for divorce and this was
the foundation of the Friday quarrel.
At the hour Of adjournment Of court
the bonds had not been furnished and
Smith was still in charge of an officer,
although Girls Simon had consented to
become one Of the bondsmen if another
could be found.

Joy much needed rest until the open
ing of the August term i'm this county.
During the session just closed there

300 cases, the court having been in ses-
sion exactly five months. The trial Of
the damage suit Of Tingley vs. the
Fairhaven Land Company, and the
two murder eases, Swiloos and Long,
were the most important brought be-
fore this session, six weeks having
been consumed i'm their trial.
The clerk was instructed by his
honor, previous to the adjournment, to
call the next term on the 29th of
August and To- issue venire, calling
for twenty-four jurors TO report on
September lst. There are now on the
docket 400 cases awaiting trial and the
coming session promises TO be as busy
as the one Just closed.

In theIfrst six months Of 1891, LIS
miles of track were laid, so that there
has been falling off of over % per
cent, but the article continues:
A review OF the work In progress
throughout the country does not warrant
the belief that the falling of for the en-
tire year will be in any such proportion.
We can enumerate extensions aRgregat-
ing over $500 miles which show good
prospect of completion before the end OF
the year, so that we feel safe in estlmat-
ing that the tracklaylng for 1872 Will not
fall short Of 4,OO0 miles, and may equal
the total for 1891.
The Railway Age, however, does not
give Washington credit for all the
track that has been laid during the last
six months, for the figures are as fol-
lows:

POLITICAL GOSSIP

Prof ID. l.. Terwilliger, principal of
Lincoln school, New Whatcom, Is in
the field as candidate for county SUI
perintendent of schools.
Carey Hickson, the present efficient
county clerk, appears to be well in the
lead for the Republican nomination for
treasurer. His popularity was well
attested by his large majority two years
ago, and his long residence in the
county, extensive acquaintance and
first-class qualifications for the office
will make him strong candidate If he
secures the nomination.
Mr.. Iickson's mantle as clerk will
in all probability fall upon the shoulders
Of his popular deputy, II. II. Pierce,
who seems to have the solid support Of
the Republican members Of the bar.
Though not "a long resident of the
county his position has enabled him 70
make n great many acquaintance and
among the Republicans who know him
there are very few, If any, who are not
favorable to his candidacy.
Many warm friends Of ex-Mayor Il.
NJ. Wilson would like TO have an OPP
portunity to support him for the legis-
lature, but they say he "wont have It,"
1t is reported that Hon. J. NJ. Miller
will not be a candidate for re-nomina-
ton, and as consequence Albert
Sherman, at present seems to have
clear field.
Some Of the leading members Of the
bar and other prominent Republicans
would like TO see James II. DERRICK, Of
this city, take the judgeship nomina-
| ton. They seem TO be confident that
he would "get there and that he
would make a model judge.
Edward Fischer is looked upon AZ
the coming man for the nomination for
county commissioner from the second
district. In this distrsct several names
are mentioned, that Of II. w. Gillette
being regarded with special favor. But
| IL Is doubtful if he can he induced to
accept the honor
