A telegram from Sheboygan to The
| Pioneer Press OF ST, Paul states that a
local paper of that city has knowledge
| that company is being formed in Chi
cago to build a road from Duluth to
| some point on the lake shore south of
| kewaunee; that Neenah, Appleton and
| Menasha have stated they wonldsubscrlbe
$4,000 to bring the road through their
| 900; that prominent Pullman official is
identified with the new concern, and that
the personnelof the company will be given
out this week
If the authority for all the statements
made is as reliable as that Manitowoc has
offered 100000, there is no reason for ex-
element. Manitowoc will promptly and
generously aid any movement which may
give her more railway connections than
she has at present, but she has made no
offer because she has not been asked 20
do so.
There have been umors here of ros
sible railway extensions; options have
been taken on property and renewed
from time to time, but the people are
getting fearful all this is the work of
the Chicago & Northwestern a corpora
ton which sucks the life blood of every
city it has under it's control and plays
the dog-In-the manger act by obtaining
possession of all available property which
might be used by some rival line, 1t is
hoped that these fears are not we'll found
ed and that the G. & n. w. has not the
city completely in Its grasp.
Some railroad men have been in the city
lately but none having any connection
with western line. AS always, the local
papers were requested "to say nothing
about it," with the result that the Chi
cago and Sheboygan papers give news
concerning MaDltowoc which the papers
of this city had to suppress, through it
was IN their possession long before it
reached the papers of the other cities.
1t Is learned on tolerably fair author
| ity" that there were good prospects of
| road west from this city in 1892, but the
panic of 1893 destroyed or delayed them.
Manitowoc Will do anything in reason or
even beyond, to secure railroad connec-
| tions beyond these to which she is at pre-
sent limited.

IN view of the fact that small pox is
quite likely to be prevalent this winter
the discussion as to the impurity of vac
cine points is quite timely. The sale of
any impure vaccine points should be re
ga:ded as murder and the punishment
should be fully as severe. The value Of
vaccination Is no longer a matter of dis
pute, put the fear that the points may be
worthless or impure makes many believe
that vaccination is about as dangeous as
the small pox.

THE session of the county board Just
closed was quiet one until within the
last few Gays. There was growing feel
ing that row of some kind was in the air
and that it would first manifest itself III
the election of a trustee for the County
Asylum. This was the only matter in
which there was any indications of bad
blood.
Oscar Alter had decided to bring in a
minority repors of the committee on
county poor, and little oratory was
looked for on this occasion.
Mr.. Alters report was quite an able
one and showed clearly the benefit to the
towns and cities resulting from the adop-
ton of this system. He invited discus.
sion of the question SO that the good and
bad points of the system might be pre-
scented to the board. The majority re-
port disappearing of the scheme was
adopted the vote standing II to Is. The
only chairmen from the towns who voted
| for the minority report were those from
! Liberty and Mishicott.

THE county board which closed its an
nual session to-day was among the best
the comfy ever had. though it could have
added to its laurels had it provided some
system OF county care for the poor, as has
been done for the insane. But county
supervision for the poor is only ques-
ton of time.
The board conducted business in a
business way and looked after the inter
ests of the county with commendable un-
selfishness. It has deserved well at the
hands of the people.
