1t has come-not the railroad on q
scow-but the railroad right of way
committee, Messrs. Kinney, Wingate,
Ferguson and Stuart. and 1t has brought
with it the right of way complete, ex-
cept few deeds which will follow by

AS predicted by the Astoran, thise inde-
fatlgable workers left no stones unturned
to secure the good of the people and
would not take no for an answer
\ The committee on inside right of way,
headed by Chairman Welch is also ready
10 present a clean report with the ex-
ceptlon Of the two or three cases for
which suit will have to be brought-more
shame to the owners-and as all but the
one subsidy deed are in, the great work
# construction will shortly commence.
Mr.. Hammond will be here, 1t is now
understoon, on the Hth-next Monday
oy which time the abstracts of title will
e completed, when all papers can be
urned over to him in clean shape.
The suits which may be necessary to
acquire title to right of way, will be
pushed vigorously and in the meantime
proper guarantee will be given Mr. Ham
lond.
It is considered by those best posted
hat there will finally be but few right
IF way suits to be instituted, as this
week will see more deeds sent in by
tnose who have been a. little slow,
1ut who are now convinced that they
should hold out no longer on bon

onclusively In these columns. is so large

mittee, Messrs, Wingate Ferguson and
Stuart. They deserve the thanks of all
loyal citizens for their faithfulness.
Theirs was perhaps the most difficult
work of any of the committees because
Of the large field to cover with inadequate
means of travel. These gentlemen secur-
ed the confidence of everybody along the
route, whether they donated or not be-
cause they told the truth at all times
and kept every promise, no matter how
small the circumstance. Every man,
woman and child is glad to see them
whenever they go to any home on
he line over every foot of which they
have travelled several times.

which meets wednesday morning, are
arriving on every train, and the rooms
of the Multopor Republican Club, the
headquarters for delegates, Sre filled
with an enthusiastic lot of young Repub-
licans. Secretary Wells, Of the state
clubs has received the information that
about 800 delegates have been elected,
though 1t is not expected that more than
COO delegates will be present. AS far as
heard from 172 clubs have elected dele
gates.
The. silver question continues to be the
leading topic Of conversation among the
delegates, and as the time for meeting
draws near, interest in the subject In
creases. A large number of the dele
gates are opposed to the convention TAX
ing any action on the money question,
or outlining the policy Of the party They
claim that 1t would place the Republi-
can party OF the state in an embarrass-
ing position, should the state club con-
vention outline a policy which would con-
Hict in any way with the policy laid
down by the national convention. 1t is
asserted that the purpose of the state
clubs is to carry out the work outlined by
the national convention. There Is u grow
ing belief, however, that the adoption of
a resolution declaring for the free and
unlimited coinage Of silver at the ratio OF
l6 10 l will be urged upon the convention.

In the police court of the District of Co
lumbia, decided an important point of in
ternational law in the case of Manuel De
Almagro, charged with the embezzlement
of So, 600 from the Argentine minister resi-
dent in this city. The attorneys for De
Almagro put in plea that he was a part
of the Argentine legation, being translator
and secretary to the minister, and as such
was not subject to criminal or other juris-
diction of the United States. Judge Miller
held that the statutes covered the case
of De Almagro, and he ordered the case
against him dismissed.

of all the organs. The change from cold
to warm weather causes depression of

Gould, writes us from Garland, Me-, some
facts in regard to this subject which will
be of great interest and value just at
this season:

sickness of my husband, and the extra
