TEN NEW LOCOMOTIVES TO BE
BUILT FOF: THE UNION
PACIFIC.
They Will Be Of the 1900 Class and Will
Be Used on the Wyoming Division
-Cattlemen Looking for a Rate
War Between Western Roads
Notes and Personals.

The results Of the reorganization Of
the Union Pacific are soon to be ex-
tended to the department of motive
power. The improvement of the track
and roadbed and the purchase of sew
eral thousand e freight cars are to
be followed up by the construction OF
ten new locomotives designed for heavy
freight service on the Wyoming divis-
ion Of the road.
The contracts for building the new
engines have just been awarded. Eight
Of them will be built at the Brook Loco
motive works at Dunkirk, N. Y. The
other two are to be built by the Schen-
ectady Locomotive works at Science
tady, N. Y. The entire lot is to be built
on plans furnished by the department
of motive power and machinery in this
city. and work on the construction will
begin at once. 1t is expected that they
will be delivered to the Union Pacific
here by October /.
The contracts just given out by Pres
| ident Burt are the first for Union Pa
cific locomotives to be awarded since
1890. Between forty and fifty new en-
gines have been added since then, but
they have beer built at the Union Pa
cific shops in Omaha. The last outside
| order in 1890 was for new engines built
by the Brooks, the Cooke, the Rogers
and the Baldwin locomotive works.
The contract just announced is the
first one that calls for any Schenectady
engines on the Union Pacific road. The
Schenectady works have been building
the locomotives in use on the New
York Central, the Lake Shore, the
| Northwestern and other Vanderbilt
lines for a number Of years. 1t is said
the engines can be built more cheaply
at the Schenectady works than by the
Union Pacifc's own mechanical depart
ment in this city.
The ten locomotives will be very SIM
liar to the remodeIed engines OF the
Union Pacific 1900 class, and will take
their numbers in that class. They Will
be consolidated engines. and the Schen-
ectadies will have the compound cylin-
ders. They will appear something like
the Union Pacific locomotive No. 1900
Of the Wyoming division, which Is now
on exhibition in the transportation
building at the exposition. The cylin-
ders on this engine are 22x2S, the eight
driving wheels are each fifty-one inches
in diameter; the diameter OF the boiler
is seventy-two inches; the weight OF
engine and tender is 269, 200 pounds, and
the total length OF engine and tender
is seventy feet.-Omaha Bee.

Casper, Wyo., Aug. 4.-(Special.)-
The democratic state convention this
morning nominated David ]. Miller OF
Rock Springs for secretary Of state and
Luke Voorhees, of Cheyenne for state
treasurer. Colin Hunter of Cheyenne
was put up for treasurer but was beaten
by Voorhees,.
The silver republicans were given
auditor and state superintendent OF
public instruction. C. H. Priest OF
Evanston will be nominated for aud
itor and ]. f. Brown OF Sheridan for
state superintendent. The latter NOM
ination was rendered to DR.. A. A.
Johnson, who declined.
The convention is now c~aucusing on
candidates for congressman and SUI
preme Judge. c. P. Arnold's speech
| set the convention on fire and he is
besieged to run for congress. c. E,
B~iydenburga is about the only candidate
for supreme judge. Both will undoubt,
eddy be nominated.
The democratic and silver republi-
can conventions met at o'clock yester'
day at Casper, but nothing except or
gan.zation and the appointment Of com
mittees was effected.
c P Arnold of Laramie was made
chairman. A committee was appointed
to confer with the silver republicans
and learn upon what condition they
would unite with the democrats upon
fusion ticket.
The silver republicans met in the
town hall and modestly agreed to de-
mand no position, but to ask for the
nominee to congress. or in lieu there
Of, two minor positions on the state
ticket.
The convention met again at s O'Clock
and unanimously nominated H.. c. AL
ger OF Sheridan for governor. The re-
port Of the platform committee was
accepted and adopted. The platform,
as outlined, is quite lengthy. 1t favor
the free and unlimited coinage OF silver
at the ratio Of 16 to 1 by the United
States without waiting for any other
nation; it commends the support given
by the democratic members OF congress-
to the president in the present war;
1t opposes the issuance Of bonds In
times of peace and declares in favor
Of holding all places which the United
States may actually obtain title to as
a result OF the war. 1t opposes many
acts of the present state officials in neg
lecting their offices and also having
offices made for reward: it arraigns in
plain terms the expenditure Of contin-
gent funds; it takes strong exceptions
to the Gramm state treasurer case and
favors a stringent law on the care OF
public funds.
The convention, after the nomina-
ton of Alger, adjourned until this
morning at 10 o'clock.

The Clearwater Short Line
Railway company has filed
with Auditor Tunnahill an
action for condemnation pro-
ceedings against the state
land board, as representatives
of the state of Idaho, to secure
railroad right of way across
the school land in the south
half of section I6, township rs
north, range 3 west, the alle-
cations of the complaint being
similar to those heretofore re.
ported in the case against the
Indian allottees. The impor-
tant difference in the two
cases is that the former action
was in behalf of the main line
or cutoff to Lewiston, while
the present case is for branch
line from North Lapwai to
Grangeville, the company al.
leging as follows:
"That said plaintiff is also
empowered to construct, main
tain and operate a branch line
from its said main line of rail-
road with a telegraph line in
connection Herewith, to di.
verge from the said main line
at a point at or near North
Lapwai, Nez Perce county,

east fork to a point in town
ship "a, range 2 west Boise
meridian; thence southeasterly
across the plateau of Craig's
mountain to Grangeville in
township No. 80 of range No.

being IS miles, more or less,
and the whole of said railroad
branch being in the two coun
ties of Nez Perce and Idaho,

May Enlist.

Many times in the past few weeks we
have heard the query: lis the protec-
ton of the A. O.. U. w. good in case a
member goes to var and is killed."
The history of the order in the yellow
fever epidemic in 1873, when the GER
,ti6cate Of every member who died in
good standing vas paid, ought to be
sufficient answer to the question.
Rest assured, brothers, that if any of
you are called to the front and you
should lose your lives in defending
the honor and perpetuity of our
government, the living chain of our
fraternity-with three hundred and
fifty thousand links-encircles your
beloved ones, and your certificate
would be paid as surely as though. you
had died at home in bed. There is but
one prohibited occupation In our order
the manufacture or sale of intoxicat.
ing liquors.-North Dakota Workman

The indications are that before this
war closes there will be a radical
change in the foreign policy of the
United States. Hitherto there has
been a strong sentiment against the
acquisition of outside territory. War
will change this opinion, and the de-
velopment of the navy will make it
necessary to hold Porto Rico and the
PHILIPPINES. The immediate annexa-
ton of Hawaii and the addition of
Cuba, in the lei future, will follow.
The United States will probably soon
become a naval power second only to
Great Britain unless public senti-
ment is greatly misconstrued, and if it
does it will need these islands.
