sitiOn to her business circles in the
person Of A. Z. .Rabe. of Nicollet, who

rheumatism.
Mr.. Rabe has for many years been
one Of Nicollet's principal merchants,
and oar people will welcome him to

interest in politics for some years and
received the nomination for state SEN

BLOOD WILL TELL.

Horse raisers are beginning to learn
by experience, if they did not already
know it, that the profit to be derived
from their industry comes in raising
stylish. fast stepping animals, such as
attract the eye Of those who will not
be satisfied with anything but nobby
turnouts, regardless Of expense. The
margin OF profit in the heavy farm
horse is small. and the country is well
stocked with such breeding horses.
With such driving stock as Senator
L. to breed from, the buggy horses in
this neighborkood must soon show
decided rise in standard.
AS \. P. Lee drove Senator L. along
the street this morning, one could not
but be struck with the beauty Of the
animal, his splendid free gait, land the
spirit Of his action. This horse is
Wilkes animal, past four years old,
and has an enviable record upon the
track, having won in each Of the four
races which he has trotted, in the
Breeders Stakes. Of Minnesota. He
won first money when two years old,
second money when three years old,
and first in the four year class. He
will this summer have some twenty
five colts il the county as examples Of
his get One Of his colts was recently
sold by VIM. Schultz. Of Minneapolis,
to Abe Hamilton. Of Tomah. Wis. for
5000, though but one year old. His
colts all have large bones, big Joints
and plenty Of sinew. and develop
tine form and action. Senator L. is
perfectly gentle and can be driven by
lady. He will be found at
\. P. Lees barn in this city
during the season. and the SER
vice fee has been placed at a
figure but one-half that Of horses Of
this character, which should ensure a
large patronage.
Mr.. Lee has lately sold Minnietta, a
two year old mare BY Empire Wilkes,
by George Wilkes, dam Alexandria
by De Crafts Alexander, second dam
by son of Blue Bull, third dam by
Membrino Patche, fourth dam Cassius
NJ. Clay Jr., to the Andrews Bros, of
Wateryille, for s1,1OO. This mare
has never been handled, and is cheap
for such breeding. Mr.. Lee still pos
sesses her dam, as we'll as the dam
of Juliette Wilkes and Linden Wilkes.
1t will be seen that it pays to raise
horses of this class, especially as the
cost is no more than to raise an or
binary colt.

Of about SIS, 600. MI. Peterson guar
anteed notes for collection to this
amount. given by farmers in his
agency for machines purchased. He
also offered to guarantee the notes
for payment, but claims that the
company refused to accept the guar
antee, which invalidates the action
which he took.

THE RIGHT OF WAY QUESTION.

The council did wisely last night in
finally deciding to postpone further
consideration Of the ordinance giving
a right of way to the Mankato s.
Northeastern railroad until another
meeting. There seems to be an erro-
neous impression in some quarters
that the Omaha road is endeavoring
TO freeze out the proposed new road
by coming in at this time and asking
for the possible donation of the re-
naming thirty feet Of leyee at the
Main street bridge. Nothing is fur
Their from the truth. for the Omaha
road is acting with sincerity if ever a
road did. The Omaha officials have
long desired to secure another passage
through the city, while our citizens
have been even more anxious to have
this done. The time has now arrived
when the road is prepared to take
this step. and it must do so now or
never The privileges asked by the
road are much less than might have
been expected, and to place any OBJ
stacle in the way of this movement
seems more than suicidal. In saying
that the Omaha road should be given
the preference in disposing Of the 80
feet bordering upon the Milwaukee
tracks, in case the road cannot ar
range to run oyer the Milwaukee
track, we do not assume
position Of hostility to the proposed
Mankato s. Northeastern road, nor
have weany desire todoso, for this pa
perhas atall times favored such line.
In case the Omaha roadmustrun along
the leyee upon its'own tracks, if at all,
it must hug the Milwaukee tracks,
or cross the rails Of the NJ. & n. E.
twice, which it would not for mo-
ment consent to. On the other hand
the NJ. & n E. can as we'll occupy
track room northwesterly of the arst
pier of the bridge as upon the space
reserved for the Omaha road. and il
the organizers are sincere the build
ing of the road wilT>pot fall through
for so slight cause.
The council cannot do otherwise
than meet the Omaha people fairly, il
it represents the wishes Of the prop
erty owners. We have it from excel
lent authority that the chances are
nine in ten that the Omaha track will
be moved, and also that il by chance
the removal does not take place at
this time 1t never will. The
plans and ordinance will be
presented at the next meeting of the
council, and II the road is successful
in its negotiations the outcome will
be presented 60 the board OF directors
early in June, and their ratification
will be the signal for the change SO
long desired and worked for By
our citizens. Should any miscarriage
OF these plans occur through our own
fault We would eyer afterward blame
ourselves.
