THE HUMBOLDT RAILROAD
Cyrus BaIdridge, the Promo
ter, Is Here on His
Way East.
To Build to Red Bluff and This
City-Are the Vanderbllts
Interested

Cyrus Baldridge, who has been in Hum
boldt County for the past two months
obtaining subscriptions for building
railroad from Eureka out to Red Bluff or
that neighborhood, came down in the
steamer yesterday, on his way East. lie
has obtained subscriptions amounting to
$5OO000 from the people of Humboldt
County, principally in Eureka and Arcata.
This, he claims, will be sufficient to
guarantee the building of the road, and he
says that he will Immediately put survey
ors in the field 20 find out the best way to
get in from Red Bluff.
D. J. Flanagan, wealthy lumber man
of Eureka who came down yesterday, said
last night at the Grand:
Mr. Baldridge was up in Humboldt about two
months. Where he is to get the capital neceS-
sary TO build the road i'll addition TO these
subscriptions, or whom he represents. we DO
not know, as he has not been communicative
on these points. 1t is said that, as he has been
connected with the Vanderbilt system, he may
represent that. You know that the Vanderbilt
people have a road, the Chicago and North
western, as far out as Caspar, Wyo.
1t is proposed, as understand it, 10 build
down TO San Francisco also and TO build the
portion to this City first. Red Bluff, I believe,
is expected TO subscribe, or has already sub
scribed, 100000, and | suppose this City viii
De expected 10 SuDSCrlDe LOT lne line W lulS
City.
Mr.. Baldridge is going East, so it is to be
supposed that there is where his capital will
come from.
Our people feel as if they would do almost
nytbing to get around into Humboldt. When
| they Will subscribe 100000 in these hard
times ii is saying good deal, isn't it?
To reach Red Bluff would take 100 miles OF
road, which would cost it is estimated, about
$50, 900 mile. There is some mountainous
country to cross, but it is rich country all the
way for cattle. fruit, dairying, mining and
lumber. A supply OF shingles would be opened
that would compete with that from Washing
ton.
The great advantage to the lumber industry
would be that in making q terminal there
would be saving OF 50 or So q thousand on
freight caused by extra handling now.
Then you know that the Government is
spending some 81 600 900 on Humboldt Bay,
which viii be the best and practically the only
harbor between San Francisco and the Sound.
We shall soon be able to get the largest vessels
in. With a railroad tapping the Sacramento
Valley, great deal of wheat could be shipped
that way. An immense timber and farming
country win be opened. In time roads Will be
built up TO Southern Oregon to tap chat cOun-
try, for all of which Humboldt Bay will be the
natural outlet.

TORE DOWN |TALY'S FLAGS
Trouble at ST.. Peters and ST
Paul'S Church on Filbert
Street.
A RAID IN THE MORNING.
The Police Guarding the Church
Against Further UndeSired
Decorations.

There was trouble yesterday morning at
the Italian Catholic Church of ST. Peter
and Paul, on the corner of Dupont and
Hilbert streets. The early risers were sur
prised to see the front of the church build
ing decorated with Italian flags around a
huge pasteboard shield, on which was the
allegorical picture of the shewolf nursing
the infantile founders of Rome. In other
words, the church was decorated with the
emblems and colors of the present celebra-
ton of the downfall of papal power in the
Mediterranean peninsula.
1t seems that as early as o'clock in the
morning a body of half dozen or more
men went to the church and rapidly
nailed the shield and the flags to the front
of the building. About that time the sex

appearing on the scene and proposing to
do by Angels Camp just what THE CALL
has been advocating as necessary for its
rapid and healthy growth. If all the com
carried out, this district is likely to rival
the Comstock sooner than heretofore pre-
dicted; for even should the mines of
this particular company prove Improbable,
the cheap and abundant power they can
supply will start a hundred prospects into
active development, and among the many
some are sure to prove vast and profitable
ventures.
70 most OF the residents of Angels the
news of the good fortune awaiting them
will come first through the columns OF IHE
SUNDAY CALL. The few who are aware OF
the facts are enthusiastic over the bright
outlook ahead, and are already beginning
to talk of an incorporated city, with paved
streets, electric lights and all the other
adjuncts of advanced civilization.

E. 6. Hudson, of Lincoln, Illinois, was
a Larned visitor several days last week.
He says Illinois is experiencing the worst
drOuth in a good many years. There
will be little wheat, no oats, and the
grass is all burning up. Mr.. Hudson says
that farmers will be compelled to sell
their stock at sacrifice prices or drive
them to some country where they will be
able to secure food for them. He also
says that the Kansas fever has taken hold
of thousands of Illinois people. and that
many of them we'll locate in the Sun
flower state before year is out. H. L.
Taylor is in receipt of letter from II. C.
Kibbee. who is at LOgansport, Indiana,
in which he tells Of similar state of
affairs in the HOOsier state. He says that
wheat in that section of Indiana will not
make more than one fourth of crop and
that hay and all forage crops are back
number this year. In some parts of
Indiana farmers are hauling water by the
train load a distance of fifty miles in
order that they may keep their cattle
from perishing. Larned Eagle.

that times are improving in Kansas. He
says there has been decided improve

have their available funds loaned, which
was not the case last year. 1t is attribu-

The Topeka Journal says party of
Santa Fe gentlemen, consisting of ID. B.
Robinson, acting president of the road;
II. U. Nudge, general superintendent;
chief engineer Dun and superintendent
of machinery John Player were in con-
sultation over the rebuilding of the shops

MIR. Robinson had just returned from
a trip over the southwestern lines of the
road and in old Mexico, and 1T was hint
ed that the consultation also included the
ACCESSIBILITY of extending the Southern
Kansas line from Panhandle to Albu-
querque in a direct line.
For years this matter has been cOnsid-
cred, and railroad men say it would be
one of the most profitable branches the
road could own. The cost of cOnstruc-
ton would be small for most of the line.
1t would shorten the line from Wichita
