GET AT THE FACTS.
Whether in Oil, Insurance, Waterworks

Look Stupid in the Light
Of Facts.

There are always two sides to a ques-
ton and it seems that even business men
at times are apt to jump at conclusions
from mere hearsay which win not bear
the light Of Investigation. A short time
ago q gentleman in q position TO know
said to us; "You ought. TO come right
down on these oil men here in your
paper. They are charging twenty cents
. gallon for oil and at Huron the people
are buying il for eve cents and it
ought to be SO here. We thought this
was a good, field for investigation and

telling him what we had heard: He re-
piled; aThis ID all 10 the air. Gasoline
sells Tor accents strsights or 5 gallons for
80 cents" Same 40 Madison. The first
man had not investigated.
We hear a very strong demand for
waterworks in our city to lessen the
risk from fire and reduce the cost OF in
uranc We thought this good argu-
ment until q man who has investigated
tells us that In cities in South Dakota
where water plants are in operation in
surance rates are higher than in Madison.
Insurance men or companies as o rule
are mere scalpers, making all the money
they AN without regard TO cost.
May not some OF our councilmen who
have shut down our electric lights have
been listening to false reports OF this
and that city getting their lighting so
much cheaper when a proper investi-

Mr.. Stanley Jones OF the Electric Co,
Investigated the matter at Luverne last
Monday and discovered something the
following to be the case. The city has
water works and electric lighting plant
combined. No separate accounts OF ex-
pense are kept but much the greater
portion belongs to the electric lighting.
The plant supplies 700 incandescent
lights 10 the city at one cent per hour

as Madison) or one-half cent per hour il

THE PROPOSED ELKTON AND
SOUTHERN.

The result of the meeting held IN
Elkton on Tuesday clearly indicates
that the residents of the First, Sec
ond and Third districts are strongly
advocating the building of the pro-
posed Elkton and Southern railroad
from point on the Baltimore and
Ohio, most probably either Childs
or Singerly, to Lambson's, Kent
County, to there connect with the
Baltimore and Delaware Bay rail-
road. The southern objective point
of the road at present however is the
Sassafras river, but the projectors OF
the enterprise are confident that the
Cecil road would eventually develop
into the northern link of an Eastern
Shore road connecting the extreme
peninsula with the Baltimore and
Ohio trunk line, and following the
prospective route of the Lancaster,
Cecil and Southern railroad, pene-
trate into the heart OF the mining
districts of Pennsylvania. The
accomplishment of this scheme
through the uniting OF the various
county railroads Of the eastern shore
would afford the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad system comparative line
with the Delaware railroad, and
which would connect the various
county seats of this thrifty, fertile
and progressive section OF Maryland
| which is, as the conditions now exist,
in need of better and more direct
railroad facilities. Reports from
Kent and Queen Anne's counties
in particular, urge Cecil to take
the initial and necessarily decisive
step in the consummation and
development of this project, by con-
structing the Elkton and Southern
railroad. The matter has been
considered by the property owners
and the residents generally of the
three Cecil county districts through
which the railroad would pass, and
as far as can be ascertained the con-
sensus of opinion is favorable toward
the construction of the road. At
the meeting on. Tuesday it was
stated that financial aid would be
forthcoming provided the initial and
necessarily successful steps are pre-
viously taken by the citizens of the
county, who would be benefited by
by theline. The amount OF $4,000
exists in the State treasury which is
applicable to this purpose, Cecips
share of an appropriation of $4,000,
600 made many years since by the
Legislature for "The Internal I'm
provement' OF the Eastern Shore
counties of Maryland. Upon the
agitation of the Elkton and Massey's
railroad, a comparatively recent
enterprise, this amount, which was
formerly $4,000 was appropriated
to the purpose, and which. through
the proper legislation on the part Of
our representatives, could be trans
ferred to the Elkton and Southern.
This amount however we believe is
not available until an equal amount
of stock has been subscribed, which
would as far as possible be issued in
exchange for rights of way. The
need of this line traversing such a
productive agricultural district is
conceded when the transportation
facilities now enjoyed are considered
and the development of the country
is materially hampered by this one
important want. AS reported in
another column a preliminary step
has been taken in the appointment

that state during recent blizzard, says
the Saturday ReUieu. Mr.. Blaize had
occasion to drive several miles during the

he was unable to get warm, and inside OF

with a severe case of pneumonia or lung

store and got bottle of Chamberlain

heard, and took a number of large doses
He says the effect was wonderful and in a

next day was able to come TO Des Moines

plete bilI-the internal revenue part OF
it has not been finished by the demo-
Gratis, and the figures of the Treasury
Department showing the estimated
effect OF the proposed bill on the
revenues of the country were only
furnished them Monday. The as
founding statement is, however,
unoficially made that the democrats
will make separate bill Of the internal
revenue changes in order that the ten
days may date from last Monday,
when the tariff schedule was first made
public. To 90 such a thing would be
manifestly unfair.
The reason why the internal revenue
part of the tariff bill has.not been
completed is that Mr.. Cleveland and
his heretofore willing tools, the demo
Gratis on the Ways and Means com
mittee, have locked horns over the
proposition to include therein an in
come tax, to which MIR. Cleveland is
opposed. Up to this time all efforts
to reach a compromise have been
unsuccessful, and some shrewd men
are predicting that the income tax will
be the rock upon which the Cleveland
and anti Cleveland democrats in Con
gress will split for good and all. We
shall see.
The administration men are talking
in a mysterious way about new
treaty with China, which the admins
tration is negotiating. They claim so
many things for this treaty it will per
haps be better to wait and ascertain
how much truth there is in their claims.
Many statesmen have tried to get the
best of the willy Chinese diplomats,
but up to date none have succeeded
to any marked extent, and Mr.. Ores
ham is hardly the man to make a
good job, even If he had a good
foundation to build upon.
