THE SIXTH DISTRICT.

The immigration convention met at
st. Paul last week, there being a large
and much interest mani
tested. The speaker for the Sixth dis
trict was DR.. G. "A. Kelsey, Of Brook
Park. He eloquently reviewed the re-
sources of this district, among other
things stating that ssour great water
way enters Minnesota in the Sixth dis
trict, and those great mineral deposits
which are soon to lead the world and
the vast and valuable timber tracts are
all in the Sixth district. The Sixth
district offers unsurpassed facilities fol-
;dairying, also, and the time will come
when this district will be the great
dairying center of the State. Three
cheers for the Sixth district, which is
as everyone knows, the greatest region
in Minnesota to-day Els River staa,

no suitable nomination, to name indie

A BLOW AT BEALs.
Proposal to Repeal Charter of Penobscot
Central Railway.
ESPECIAL TO THE pRrss.l

<sN@<-@~
Bangor, February 15.-It is stated here
on good authority that this city's repre-
sentatives in the legislature ara planning
to introduce in that body bill to make
void the charter of the Penobsoot Central
Railroad company.
The charter is one granted under the
common law to f. 0. Beal and his asso-
ciates in the enterprise and the location
of part of the road is now question
pending in the legislature. There is a
contest over the question as to whether
the road shall run down Broad street and
along Front street, but other matters
enter into the proposed legislative assault
on the company. The blow will be at
Mr.. Beal, whose political opponents sue
ceeded in getting hold of the city's legis-
lative representation. The old question
of whether the Republicans of the city
shall nominate their candidats For mayor
in a general caucus of citizens or il an
convention of delegates chosen in the
ward caucuses, has come to the front.
The Be Il faction is advertising a general
cauou us and his opponents announce ward
caucuses which are expected to nominate
ward delegates to the convention.
So the Penobscot Central is pretty
well mixed up in politics. If the bill to
annul the charter is introduced of course
there will be tight, and Mr.. Beal's op-
ponents will improve the opportunity to
argue that he and his plans are danger
Gus to the welfare OF Bangor.
