A NORTHWESTERN EXPOSITION.

The twin cities are agitating the
question Of northwestern or mid
continent exposition to take place in
1887. The idea is a good one. There
Is no reason why an exposition similar
50 that now in progress at Atlanta
cannot be held in the northwest, and
d would be of great benefit to it.
There is no better place in the coun-
ny for such an exposition than the
twin cities. Their railroad facilities
are Of the best: their capacity for TAX
Ing care of crowd unlimited, and
tbeir enterprise unequaled. Judging
therefore from every point of view,
xReh an undertaking would be sure to
be a success and its value to the en-
lire northwest would be incalcuIable.
TIE spirit ii which it is being taken
mp indicates that all the northwestern
cities and states will be shoulder to
shoulder with Minneapolis and ST..
Paul in whatever they may decide to
do in this direction. 1t is a matter
gbjch will bear pushing at lively
.stn

THE PRESIDENTIAL FIELD.

The interview Of John G. New, of
Indianapolis, to the effect that Ben
jamin Harrison is not candidate for
the presidential nomination next
year, and that he did not favor the
nomination of either Reed or McKin-
ley for that position, has furnished
ample food for the politicians and
newspaper correspondents, and they
are making active use of it and at
tempting to figure out what effect it
will have upon the final result.
The string which Mr.. New attaches
TO Mr.. Harrison's declination that he
would consent to serve his party if
demanded, will never be pulled. And
this is casting no reflections upon Mr..
Harrison or his administration, which
was one of the ablest, cleanest and
most business-like the republic has
ever had. But it is simply because
Mr.. Harrison is not magnetic man.
He can not arouse the masses like
Blaine or Clay, and for that reason,
he will not be turned to simply be-
cause he is willing if called upon,
when there are plenty of active, able
candidates in the field, anyone OF
whom would make strong, able
president if elected.
Just at present the actions of Platt
and Quay are being closely watched
and much speculation is being in
dulged in as to which Of the three
leading. candidates-Reed, Mckinley
or Allison-they will give their sup
port, and SO carry their states with
them. But they are very likely TO
watch events as closely as any one
else during the next few months and
keep quiet as to what they propose to
do. &&
There is but little doubt that Sena-
tor Allison will prove much stronger
candidate in the field than some of
the politicians give him credit for be-
ing. The sound conservative position
he occupies upon the leading ques-
tions of the day inspires confidence
among the masses and will give him
great strength. The story which has
been circulated to the effect that he
did not want the presidential nomi-
nation but simply wished to be re-
turned to the senate is not generally
credited. But should there be any
thing in it, it is pretty generally con-
ceded that it will give Senator Davis,
of this state, pretty strong backing
from the west and northwest.
However, it is :probable that the
scenes upon the presidential checker
board will change many times before
the convention meets next year.

RAILROAD MOVEMENTS.
6. &. N. w. Officials Visit Mankato-
New Time Cards.

General Superintendent Sanborn
and Division superintendent Cos
grave, of the Chicago & Northwestern
road, arrived in the city last evening,
and went out this morning at S:15.
They took walk over the levee pro-
perty with Supt Spencer, Of the Oma-
ha, this morning and looked over the
ground, but gave out no information.
A change in the time table of the
G. 81 n. W. road will take effect Sun
day. The only change will be that
the through train will not come into
the city, but the night crew on the
stub will go on and meet the train at
the junction.
There are rumors of change in the
Minneapolis & st. Louis time table,
to take effect in about two weeks,
which will be of considerable advant-
age to MankatO.
Surveyor Sawyer, Of the Omaha
road, is at work ''tieing in" the plats
of the proposed right of way, and will
hardly finish his work for several days
to come. Until he is through the Or
dinance to be presented to the coun-
Gil cannot be drawn up.
A change in the Omaha time card
will take effect Sunday. The train
now arriving at IL :32 p. m. will then
arrive at II % p. M, and the train ar
irving at 4:30 a. m. will then arrive at
4:l9 a. m. There will be no change in
the time of running the noon train.
No Sunday train will be put on at
present, but when business picks up
more we should not be surprised to
see it placed on again.

WILL COST $4,000.
Cost Per Year for City Lighting as
Proposed.

Taking Prof. Shepardson's min
imum estimate of the cost of main
tanning the lighting plant after it is
installed, S65 per arc light of nominal
1000 candle power, burning all night,
and $50 where they burn until mid
night, it is found to be about $4,S7O a
year. This is on the basis of the
minimum number of lights proposed
to be used.
Thirty arc lights at S65 each, and
thirty at $50 each, SO incandescents of
30 candle power, q of so candle power,
and Is of sixteen candle power, on the
basis that one arc equals in cost five
incandescents of thirty candle power,
and the exact figures are 81, 73O.
1t has been proposed to start in
with eighty arc lights, or to soon have
that number, while Prof. Shepardson
says shat the incandescents of thirty
candle power may cost one-fourth
| what the arcs cost to maintain. TAX
ing this as a basis, and the cost of
the city lighting will be $500 per
year, or about what it costs at pre-
sent. This makes no allowance for
the burning out of dynamo, or other
extensive accident. Whether the SER
vice will be as good under municipal
ownership as it is now, will be seen
after the plant has been in operation
for some time. 1t should be stated
that the city will have sixteen more
arcs and about twice as many incan-
descentS as there are at present,
but that half the lights will only burn
until midnight, SO that there will be
more lights before midnight and less
after midnight than now.

GOING TO FARGO.
:. A. Everhart and Others to Start
Big Candy Factory There.

c.. A. Everhart & Co. will be the
name of big candy manufacturing
firm which will start in business at
Fargo, N. D., in about month. The
firm is composed of Mr.. Everhart and
others, and this move will take away
several very desirable citizens from
Mankato. Mr.. Everha will move
his family to Fargo in about two
weeks, and with them will go Miss
Gee, Geo. Everhart. w. w. Harmon,
Mr.. Webb, and about dozen others.
The material for the new plant is
being purchased largely in this city.
Today the boiler and engine, made by
the Mankato Manufacturing Co., were
shipped to Fargo, and carload Of
stone slabs, made by T. R. Coughlin,
will be shipped soon. On Oct. 10th,
four carloads of material will be
shipped from this city. III s5.., 50
The new company has a capital
stock of $4,000, and a $4,000 building
is nearly ready for them to occupy.
This building is so by 100,'feet Of
brick, and practically three stories
high. The basement or first floor will
be occupied by the power plant and
stock room, the second floor by the Of
fee, packing and shipping rooms, and
the third floor by the manufac-
turing department. The building will
be completed by Nov. 1st, and will
be a fine structure, to judge from the
plans.
While regretting to lose those who
will go to Fargo, we wish them sue
cess in their enterprise, and con-
graduate Fargo on securing such es-
timable citizens.

WILL INCORPORATE
Base Ball Company Having Articles
Drawn.


Drawn.
The base ball company has decided
to incorporate, and Attorney Flittie
was busy today drawing up the arti-
Giles of incorporation, to be filed with
the secretary of state, at ST. Paul, as
required by law.
The name of the organization will
be the Mankato Base Ball company,
and the capital stock is placed at
$1,000. The incorporators are G. D.
Benack, L. Lampert, Geo. Pond, E. V.
Riley, G. H. Saulpaugh, John H. Cur
ryer, S. r. Snow, A. w. Robinson, G.
A. Everhart and n. P. Lee. All of
these are directors, and the following
are named as officers: S. r. Snow,
president: John Curryer secretary; q.
V. Riley, treasurer; G. D. Benack,
manager: Geo. Pond, assistant man
ager.
1t is the intention of the company
to form league to cover Minnesota
south of the Twin Cities, and take in
La Crosse, and a meeting of repre-
sentatives from a number of towns
will be held in this city early in the
winter to talk the matter up. AT that
time it will be found out what towns
will go into the league, and it is in
tended to make the number eight.
All this years club have signed for
another year except Desmond and
Reed, who will probably not belong to
the club next year. Capt. Messerly is
looking out for first-class players to
fill these two positions, and Mankato
will have club next year which will
maintain the reputation which has
been established.
