N. P. IMPROVEMENTS.

Minneapolis Times: In its joy over
splendid net earnings shown, the. man
agement of the Northern Pacific is not
unmindful OF the desirability of i'm
proVements on the line and the bet
terment Of existing conditions gener-
ally. The heavy westward rush Of
Italian laborers served to excite many
officials and strengthened the suspicion
that a grand coup was being arranged
by the Northern Pacific for the special
benefit of its rivals. Strictly speak
ing this is not true. AS matters stand
at present the Great Northern is a
competing line, but it is not looked
on by railroad men generally as a rival
to the Northern Pacific. If ever COM
PARSONS were misleading this, it has
been stated, is n instance.
The Times is acquainted with the
nature OF the improvements which the
Northern Pacific is making and has
under consideration. They include
the replacing Of the entire line and the
principal branches with 72-pound steel.
This change, it is expected, will be en-
Stirely realized before the end OF next
year. simultaneously with this change
there figures the reduction of grades
over the entire main line. Says are
being filled, banks Widened from four
teen to sixteen feet and heavy coat
.ings of ballast being provided. Hun
5dreds of miles OF fencing are being set
These changes, as will be seen,
r made necessary by the increased
weight and power of the new engines
soon to be used, and which mean much
heavier trains. Sidings are being
heightened to accommodate the in
creased length of trains and additions
are being made to the shops, ware
houses. fuel stations, water tanks, etc,
along the main line.

TO THE ASSESSORS.
Commissioner Thomas has sent out
out a circular to the assessors Of the
state which says:
This being the year in which the
United States census will be taken,
and a basis established for statistical
calculations, I have thought it best to
pcall your attention to the fact, and ask
you to be as thorough in your work
this spring in gathering statistics as
you would if you were to work for the
government. We as servants Of the
people of our state. are under just as
great obligation to perform our work
Alright as he who labors for the gem
eral government, and the people have
the right to demand it. The necessity
and the benefits to be derived from
gathering statistics can no longer be
questioned, therefore what is done,
should be done as thoroughly as pos
sible, that we may point with pride to
our work and receive that well done,
thou good and faithful servant
I know that you will meet with
some resistance, and find those who
think statistics are used to their dis
advantage, but by a little explanation
and assurance on your part, that this
is not the intention II purpose of this
department to use the statistics in any
way except for the good OF the state,
a great deal of the objections can be
overcome. 1t has been treated by me
as a matter of confidence, and only
given out for publication when in my
Judgment to keep silent would be. a
greater error than RI SnnaE

vicissitudes for holding stocks for the
dividend returns which they yield. The
wide distribution OF the dealings also
added to the healthy appearance of the
market. The character of the bank state
ment was so confidently foresecn that
it's appearance was not awaited for the
closing up of contracts. The traders

that the closing up of contracts stiffened
the market very appreciably. sugar and

it fell across the track, twisting the
rails out of shape. One man started
towards Montrose to flag the train as
It came down the heavy grade, while
the other ran to Afford 20 get the Sec

and to repair the track. The train was
stopped when it was within a few
rods Of the tree, and the passengers
walked down the grade and over the
big trestle to Afford station. II the
train had struck the obstruction IT
would have been whirled down the

capital can be raised, to construct an

The Lake Winola association was

of the waters of Lake Winola for
boating. fishing, bathing. etc. The
members still retain their cottages,
