Who certainly ought to know what he is
salking about, that 1t is the intention of
.he Consolidated officials to begin work
IN the new Union station very soon,
and push it rapidly and vigorously until
I is completed. This view is held, we
repeat. by man who has better facii-
ties for knowing the facts than any other
man in Providence, probably. His opin-
lon Is worthy of attention. 1t is to be

ccomplished. They hold that they are
'ntitled to better railroad facilities. II
they get them. and get fair rates, they
viii not complain.

Railroad company seems to point
to rather close union be-

New Haven and Hartford for the presi-
dency of the Boston and Maine unless
there was something more to the deal

numbers, thanks to Speaker Crisps
committee appointments. Southern
men head the elections, ways and

foreign affairs, interstate and foreign
commerce, rivers and harbors, post
offices, public lands, territories, rail-
ways and canals, private land
claims, public buildings and grounds,
education, pensions, claims, re-
vision of laws, expenditures in
the state department, war depart
ment, navy department, postottics de-
pactment, interior department, agri-
culture and printing committees. Ii
there is any thing else that the South
wants it had better be reserved for the
brigadiers. The North has, apparently,
no right TO consideration.
