what important factors there are IN the de-

who is acquainted with the territory west Of
the Rocky Mountains, or who will make a
study of it, il will be plainly parent what
an immense field is untraversed by railroad
lines, what rich districts could be opened
up, and how greatly transcOntintal business
could be facilitated.
1.-The map annexed shows several pro-
posed lines that would be OF immense
benefit TO California. the interior and
the country at large. They would all
be paying lines. Along them would be
mines OF lead, coal, iron, gold. silver, copper
and salt. Immense forests abound aad
agriculture and stock-raising is carried on
in the valleys.
THE SALT LAKE LINE.
"The line to the northeast to Butte, Mont,
connecting with the Northern Pacific and
the Great Northern, would place Minneap-
oils and ST. Paul within more easy reach of
the products of California. The line ex-
tending east through Central Nevada and
Utah would be a competitive one to Salt
Lake City, and il carried farther east into
Colorado would give the Burlington and
Missouri a Western connection. The line

AN IMPORTANT MATTER.
The Need of More Railroads i'm
the State Of California.
An Article From the Railway Gazette" That
Tells Of the Doings Of the One Great
Monopolistic Power.

The following article taken from the
New York Railway Gazette of the 22d inst.
shows in strong light the necessity OF
more railroads in this State:

as the Golden State and land Of promise,
wealth and activity, and associate with its
people dash and enterprise which is be-
Iieved to be the peculiar attribute Of the
West But. although singularly favored by
nature and position with an Cquable eli

forests, with grand scenic attractions. the

east territory rich in mining, agricu itural
and timber resources, much OF which seeks
O natural outlet TO the coast, yet California
of to-day is more lifeIess and siagnant than
any other portion of the United States. In
its principal city, San Francisco, trade is
dull and Improbable, and many old firms
are going out of business; vacant houses
are numbered by the thousand. and COM
paints of dull times are heard from every
lip. The pioneers, whose pluck and enter

GRAND MoNOPoLISTIC POWER
"While the majority of the people have
been living on the golden results and repu-
tation of the past few men of shrewdness
and foresight have been gradually building

stands in the novel position of State hay-
ing practically but one railroad The re-
suit has been disastrous TO the welfare and
progress OF the commonwealth. Diserimn-

Conflicting Statements Concerning the
Alleged Russian Official Dispatches.
ST. PETERSBURG, July 28.-The journal
de st. Petersburg declares the telegram in
the Syoboda of Sofia, which it is alleged
was sent to the Russian Minister at
Bucharest by the Chief of the Asiatic De-
partment at st. Petersburg under date Of
August 10, 1887, was a forgery. The tele-
gram stated the Cars Government had
finally determined to consider Prince Ferdi-
nand usurper, standing beyond the pale
OF all laws, and all acts directed toward his
removal were therefore iustifable and inno-
cent. The alleged telegram concluded: Il
beg you to assist in a confidential way all
persons ready to take an active share in
Prince Ferdinand's removal"

Many people have asked this question, many are asking it now, because they know they need Spring Tonic and Blood Purifier, and want the best. To any such we can positively answer and truthfully that our DANDELIoN COMPOUND is the best blood purifier, tonic and alternative now known. The reasons are that in com position it is entirely vegetable, it's ingre- dients are all carefully selected, it is made on the most approved scientific principles, and is in all respects perfectly reliable, safe, and meritorious production.
 We know of many who are now using it with decided benefit, and to their own en- tire satisfaction, but we have yet to hear of one case where it has failed to do all and exactly that which we claim for it. We neither admire nor use sensational ad. vertising, but aim to state the exaci truth.

IT was a significant remark which MT Wadlin made at the meeting of Bos- ton club recently in regard to the effect of immigration upon American society. Before the immigration period began, we knew nothing of classes, or practi- cally nothing. In most towns and will lages we had the great industrial mid dle class, with here and there a sprinkling of cultivated or wealthier families, but with the introduction of the industrial European, whether Irish or German or French Canadian, we be- gan to divide society into classes, ac- cording to the lines established in Flu rope, and the character of the present immigrants is such as to confirm the class distinction. Mir Wadlin was right agaIn in pointing out that the present immigration to this country is intimately connected with our industrial and social problems. More complicated issues grow out of it now than have come up at any other time. Heretofore we have been able to absorb all who have come to us, but the greater part of those who now come are too low down in improv- ished !conditions,to to speedily become good citizens. The gravity of this immigra- grafton problem is constantly attracting the attention of our best social econo- mists

Good Leadership.

To have good leader is at once an sdvantage and disadvantage. The very efficiency of leader is apt to prompt 8 feeling of security in those who follow; and this, again, is likely to develop into blind dependence upon the leader and a consequent shrinking of the manlier virtues among those who are tso led. Moreover, the better the leader the heavier will be his loss when circumstances compel him to step out from the leadership. In the opinion of tho Sunday-School Times there is only one way to avoid the dis advantages which are associated with having good leader, and that is ale ways to have before ones mind the possibility of tho leaders erring and the certainty of his ceasing to be a leader. Follow your leader; but be just as watchful and careful as if you were the leader yourself. Be a quiet, if watchful, follower in the present, but do not let the present blind your eyes to the fact that the time may come in which you will look for leader in vain, and that you must be preparing yourself now to act, in that time, as your own leader, and, mayhap, as the leader of others.

A Rare Case.

At a recent postmortem examination upon the body of a young woman who had committed suicide a most peculiar and rare anatomlcal . condition was found. In speaking of the case after the inquest the operator said that in holding nearly two thousand post mortem examinations he had never found as complete case of transpo- sition. "Every part was transposed, ' continued the surgeon, ''and had been so from birth. The heart was upon the right side and the other members of the viscera were completely transposed. It is rare and most unusual case, and one that is well worth receiving careful attention from surgeons. The woman suffered no i'm convenience therefrom, howev CT, and from talks have had with her ac- quaintances and friends, have learned that she paid but little attention to the transposition of her vital organs"
