CITY OF CONVENTIONS
Movement to Secure National
Epworth League.
TO FOLLOW THE ENDEAvORERS
A Delegate Sent to Chattanooga to
Push the Claims Of seattle for
the 1897 Convention.

II the efforts Of the young peoples or
ganiZations Of this city meet with en-
&C ura cement, Seattle will he city Of re-
ligious conventions in 1891. The Epworth
League following the lead set by the Y.
?. ;. c. T., is now making a movement
toward securing for this place the ma
tional gathering two years hence. Moth
ing so far has been said publicly, but a
great deal has been done in the way of
preparation. and the lines have been SO
well laid that II the West secures the
prize, Seattle most probably viii be the
successful candidate
The subject has been before the local
leaguers for some time, and the leaders
in the movement have been materially
aided by the counseis of Presiding Elder
Ford and Rev. W. A Shanklin. When
he state league met i'm Tacoma last week
the question was brought up quietly and
the national delegates from that city and
this. il is understood were instructed 10
use all their influence to bring the ma
tional league TO this city in 1897. 1t is
said further that the delegate from Port
land. Or, will back Seattle for the con-
vention.
one powerful argument to he used on
the National League. which this year
VIII meet at Chattanooga, Tenn, is that
Seattle having been the meeting place of
the National Endeavorers. viii offer I'M
usual Inducements in the way of build
ings and other accommodations. OF
course. the force of the argument will
depend wholly on the success of the En-
deavoreg's in their attempt 10 bring their
national convention here.
The delegate from this city is T.. F.
Blaine. who left for the East over the
Northern Pacific yesterday. He is a
strong man, good friend Of Seattle. and
his experience in the primaries and in
city. county and state conventions OF tho
Democratic party peculiarly fits him for
the task of swinging the Chattanooga
gathering into line for Seattle
The news of this move on the part of
the Epworth League viii inspire the pro-
motors of the Y. +. S. c. r. undertaking
with new zeal, and most likely will re-
suit in Seattle getting both national CON
ventionS. There are about 5000 members
in the National Epworth League, against
5000 or 90 0O0 in the National Endeavor-
ers' society. the reason for the difference
being that the league is made up wholly
of young people from the Methodist
church, while the other society repre-
sents a number of denominations The
EpwOrth League usually meets about
three weeks later than the EndeaVorers.

Railway Lands.

Gov. Clough issued proclamation
which will soon throw open to settle
ment the old land grant of the state to
the Hastings and Dakota Railway Conn
pany. The edict was made in accord
ance with the provisions of $. F. No.
ais, passed by the last Legislature,
which directs that the governor shall
relinquish the claim of the state to
certain lands and surrender them to the
United States This act was passed for.
the very purpose for which it was used
yesterday by the chief executive.
The lands in question comprise con-
siderable tract of valuable prairie, hill
and dale along the rout of the Hastings
and Dakota road, now in the hands OF
receiver. They are a portion OF a
grant made to the state in the early 70s
for the state to hold in trust and use in
promoting it's railroad interests as
grants to railroad companies. In 1886
the Hastings and Dakota company was
gived the grant in question to keep and
to hold as it's own under certain con-
ditions. The railroad company failed
to qualify, became insolvent and went
into the hands of Russell Sage, the
New York capitalist, who was appoint
ed receiver. The state sued the COM
parry and Sage to quiet title to the land,
and after considerable length of time
it won the case, and now the land will
revert to the government, its original
owner.
