B.&O.'S NEW THROUGHLINE
Preparing for the Immense Traffic
Incident to the Worlds Fair.

The management of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad is preparing for an i'm
mense business in 1898 while the Worlds
Fair is open in Chicago. The terminals
at Chicago are capable of accommo-
dating much heavier traffic than is
now being done, and important changes
are being arranged for the handling of
very heavy freight and passenger bust
ness to the West from New York, Phila-
delphia and Baltimore. New equipment
for largely increased passenger business
and an extensive stock of freight cars
have been ordered. The various roads
OF the system will be improved by
Strengthened lines, reduced grades, extra
side tracks, and interlocking switches.
The new line between Chicago Junction
and Akron has shortened the distance
between Chicago and tide water twenty
five miles, and between Pittsburgh and
Chicago fifty eight miles.
The distance between Chicago and
Pittsburgh and Chicago and Cleveland
by the construction of the Akron line
and the acquisition of the Pittsburgh
and Western line and the Valley Railroad
of Ohio, is about the same as via the
Lake Shore from Cleveland to Chicago,
and by the Pennsylvania from Pitts
W he Is
to be changed and grades reduced to
a maximum of twenty-six feet 1t is
expected that within twelve months
the old Baltimore and Ohio through
line between Chicago and the Allan
tic Ocean will have passed away
and the new line via Pittsburgh estab-
lished, with no geater grades or curva-
ture than on any of the trunk lines.
Work has already been begun east of
Pittsburgh to meet improvements
making west of Pittsburgh. These i'm
provements will consist of additional
second and third tracks, general cor
rection of the alignment and completion
of the double track on the Metropolitan
Branch. 1t is expected that the new
through line will bereadv simultaneously
with the completion of the Belt Line
through the city of Baltimore, which is
intended to unite the Washington Branch
with the Philadelphia Division and do
away with the present line via Locust
Point. Forty new and powerful locomo-
tive engines were added to the equipment
during the last two months, and others
| in process of construction. The perma-
| nent Improvements now under way and
in contemplation involve the expenditure
of some five millions of dollars.-Balti-

SENATOR MATT w. RANSOM.

In recent issue of the indianapolis
(lndiana) Sentinel, the following brief
but pointed allusion was made to
Senator Ransom, and the high opinion
therein expressed of him will be shared
and appreciated by his many friends
and admirers throughout North Caro-
lima. The Sentinel says:
North Carolina will look a long
time before she will find senatorial
timber equal to that of which Senator
Ransom is made. 1t doesn't grow in
every neck of woods.
In a recent issue of the Roxboro
Courier we find the following.
North Carolina is sometimes accused
of indifference towards her worthy
sons: and this accusation has some
business in it. The fact is due to our
failure to appreciate their merits while
living. Hon. Matt w. Ransom has
succeeded in an undertaking which
should be lauded in every daily and
weekly in the State. When Gen. w.
r. Cox made it known that he would
like to become Secretary of the Senate,
already enough Senators had expressed
themselves favorably to Col. Washing
ton to secure his election. Ransom
took charge of CoX's cause and never
ceased to work until his election was
made by the Senate unanimously.
This was the work of one man, and we
don't believe there is another Senator
who could have done the same thing.
When the friends of DIR.
Eben Alexander desired to have him
appointed minister to Greece, thew
placed the case in Ransom's hands,
and Alexander was the first North
Carollnlan to receive an appointment.
There is in Washington city to-day no
man with more influence than Senator
Ransom. During the twenty-five
years, through which he has served his
State SO faithfully, he has done much
for the turtherance of our interest and
the security of our rights. Twice he
has secured the appointments of North
Carolinians to positions in the Senate.
and there walks within its halls to-day
no two Courtlier men than Ransom
and his friend, General Cox, whose
election he has just secured. Long
may he live and serve his people.

4 FITTING COMPLIMENT

Col. \. B. Andrews is one of the
principal standbys and safe guards of
North Cardinals large interests among
the great railroad magnates of the
country. He is very quiet, unassum-
ing gentleman, but is very forceful and
potent in railroad matters, especially
those pertaining to North Carolina.
We have watched his railroad course
for many years, and it is a great mis-
fortune to the interests of North Caro-
lima that he could not have more
encouragement and substantial back
ing from home in his railroad enter
prISes. We would now have more
control in our railroad affairs. Still,
we are doing exceedingly well-much
better than some other Southern
States. We hope Col. Andrews will be
spared long to continue the good work.
He IS the general agent in North Caro-
lima for the receivers of the Richmond
< Danville railroad, with headquarters
at his home place Raleigh.-Hickory

IT WAS THE PEOPLES FIGHT.

The New York Herald had num-
Der of bankers in various parts OF the
country interviewed on the financial
situation, and published their views.
Mr.. \. l.. Boulware, president Of the
First National bank Of Richmond, IS
quoted as saying: "The politicians
seem to me to be misleading the peo-
pie in trying to make them believe
that it is fight between Wall street
and the country people,
Commenting on this, the Richmond
Times says:
Mr.. Boulware hit the nail exactly
and squarely on the head when ne
said this: The free silver newspapers
and politicians generally take this as
the text of every address they make to
the people. The burden of every song
they sing is conspiracy located in
Wall street, New York, which aims at
depriving the people Of all money and
leaving them all financial wrecks.
This is true in one sense, but in the
sense in which it is put out to the
public, it is absolutely absurd and
ridiculous.
Undoubtedly every man trading in
Wall street is looking out for himself,
and he is trying to make the best
bargain he can ant to secure for him
self every profit which any transaction
promises. One mans profit is likely
to be another mans loss, and, as all
dealers in Wall street are seeking to
make profits for themselves, in that
sense all dealers there may be said to
be operating against all men elsewhere.
But in following this line of conduct
we see no difference whatever between
the motive that inspires the Wall street
dealer and the motive that inspires
any other dealer. This is world in
which every man in business is for
himself, with a kindly admonition to
the hindermost one to look out for the
devil.
The Times is partly right and
partly wrong. Nothing can be palmer
than the fact that the run on the
treasury was conspiracy of the money
sharks of the country, confined princi-
pally to what is known as Wall street,
to force the administration into a
policy which would benefit them and
at the same time injure the people
generally. Their object, of course,
was not primarily to harm the country,
but rather, as the Times says, 10 look
out for themselves, but it just SO
happens that the bad financial policy
of the last administration had brought
about crisis in the financial world,
the character of which was such that
Wall street could be greatly benefited
and the country at large seriously
injured, could Wall street prevail upon
or force the administration to pursue a
certain policy. Wall street practically
threatened the administration thus:
"It you do not issue bonds we will
lock up all the gold and force panic"
SO it was to all intents and purposes
a fight of the people represented by
the administration against Wall street.
Secretary Carlisle and President Cleve-
land preferred fight rather than
surrender and, calling the people to
their aid, routed Wall street and
brought the money sharks to terms.
We
be no panic.-Danville Register.

IN this section is 4 criterion il will be

Why Are You in the Church

There is much of truth in the follow
ing: "Why am | in the church, asks
a UNCONVENTIONAL exchange, then it pro-
ceeds to answer the question in this fash
ion: The man who quarrels with the
Church. and leaves it on the plea that
Church members have not been helpful
to him as they should have been, is I'M
consciously publishing the fact that his
motive in Joining the Church was not the
right one. Paul did not ask, Lord,
what wilt thou do for me-" but What
wilt thou have me to do?" The man
whose place is in the Church does not
ask, What can get out of member
ship in this Church," but What can
do as member of this Church, for Christ
and for the Church,"
