The rumor is revived that the I'm
ion Pacific will soon build a road up the
Platte valley, through North and Mid
die parks and o a connection with the
Rio Grande. 1t is probable this road
will be built at some future time, but
there is little prospect of it till the
mines in the vicinity of Battle Lake re-
ceive mor attention and development.
This rear may bring that district to the
front with a bound, and If so a railroad
to haul the ores will be a necessity.

quantity of their products to Birming-

herself, England will, in a short time,
be compelled 10 place a tariff on all
such imports. That writer advises
England to do what he bitterly de-
