Santa Fe and Southern Pacific

News of Railroads and Railroad
Men.

Chicago, Sept 26-Executives of the
western railroads were in session the
greater part of yesterday, considering
the advisability of forming a pool on
military business to and from San Fran
cisco. After much discussion, a COM
mittee representing the Santa Fe, South
ern Pacific, Union Pacific and Rio
Grande roads was appointed and re-
quested to submit a report concerning
the formation of a pool on military
business and organization of a trans
continental combination on passenger
business.
The committee presented a report
later in the day. The provisions of the
report favored the formation of two
pools, one by lines east of Denver and
FL Paso, and the other of lines west of
those gateways.
In this proviso the settlement Of their
differences is left to the Santa F'e and
the Southern Pacific without involving
other lines in the dispute
The former company demanded a
larger percentage of business than the
roads east of the points named cared
to consider. It is believed, however,
that an agreement on this point will
be reached and that the trans-conti-
mental pool arrangement will become an
ACCOMPLISHED fact

MR. sTILwELL WINS.
Gets Mexican Concession for His
Orient Road.

Kansas City, No.. Sept. Pa. E. Still
wells new road-the Kansas City, Mexico
and Orient-it is said has at last secured
the concession from the Mexican govern
ment which was needed to make the
scheme a success. This concession is one
that was granted originally to the Chi
huahua and Pacific railroad, which oper-
ates a line from Chihuahua to Conception
This road decided not to avail itself Of
the concession and surrendered it to the
Stilwell road. It was not exactly what the
Stilwel1 people wanted, however, and the
transfer was made conditional on the
amendment of the concession by the gov
eminent. This amendment has just been
made, validating the transfer and giving
the Stilwell road the right to build
through the states of Chihuahua and Sin
aloa to the Pacific at Port Stilwen (Topo-
lobampo).
The concession carries with it a cash
subsidy of from $4,000 to $4,000 per kilo-
meter, which is approximately fve-e1ghthS
of a mile. The total subsidy will amount
to about 81 900, 900. A concession with no
subsidy clause had already been obtained
for a road from Preside, on the United
States border, to Chihuahua, so that there
seems to remain no obstacle to the speedy
construction of the road, which will con-
meet Kansas City directly with the Pa
cific. Construction work is actively pro-
crossing the road in Oklahoma and
Texas. and engineering parties are at
work in Kansas and Mexico.

When a preparation has an advertised
reputation that is world wide, it means
that preparation is meritorious. If you
go into a store to buy an article that
has achieved universal popularity like
Cascarets Candy Cathartic for example,
you feel it has the endorsement of the
world. The judgment of the people is
infallible because it is impersonal. The
retailer who wants to sell you "some-
thing else'' in place of the article you
ask for, has an ak to grind. Don't it
stand to reason? He's trying to sell
something that is not what he repre-
sents it to be. Why? Because he ex-
poets to derive an extra profit out of
your credulity. Are you easy? Don't
you see through his little game? The
man who will try and sell you a sub
stitute for CascaretS is a fraud. Be
ware of hilnI He is trying to steal the
honesty earned benefits of a reputation
which another business man has paid
for, and if his conscience will allow him
to go so far, he will go farther. If he
cheats his customer in one way, he will
in another and it is not safe to do bust
ness with him. Beware of the Cascaret
substitutor? Remember Cascarets are
never sold in bulk but in metal boxes
with the long tailed "C'' on every box
and each tablet stamped c. c. c.

Politics on Sliding Scale in Ottawa
County.

Especial to the State JournaL1
Minneapolis. Sept. 26.-J. C. Gafford,
chairman, and J. E. Johnston, secretary
of the Ottawa county Republican CEN
trail committee, have completed the poll
of the county, and upon the result OF
these returns, claim a prospective vic
tory surprising the record of the years
which have elapsed since the party was
swept out of power all over the state.
"Our committee" said Chairman CAT
ford, who is cashier of the Minneapolis
National bank, to the State Journal cor
respondent, will not make public the
list of changes among the voters in this
county, but I will say that the most con-
sentative estimate shows large addi-
tions to our ranks. A poll in one of the
townships showed such an enormous
gain for the Republicans that we doubt
ed its accuracy; in fact we would not
believe the figures, but three canvaSseS
have been made and we are now salts
fed that the figures first returned to us
are correct. There is no doubt that we
are making substantial gains from the
opposition and we will give Mckinley
and Stanley good majorities."
This is the home of w. A Johnston,
who is the Republican nominee for re-
election as associate justice of the SUI
preme court. His brother is the secre-
tary of the local committee.
In 1896 Mr. Bryan carried Ottawa
county by a majority of $50. In two
years the Republicans turned the ta-
bleS, wiping Bryan'S majority off the
STATE ana electlng all county OfhcerS, ex-
cept one, by a majority of $50. Cover
nor Stanley carried the county by 139
votes. Added to this the vote of the
soldiers in the Philippines, the total was
142. In 1899 the Republicans achieved
another victory, capturing all of the Of
fees, but one, leaving at this time two
representatives of the opposition in the
court house.
Two years ago the Republicans exper-
imented somewhat by nominating a Sill
yer Republican for county commission
er, and he was elected. But in Office he
did not hew to the party line, so a new
man-concerning whom there is no
question to his political attitude-has
been given this place on the ticket.
The Republican majorities in 1899
ranged from $50 to 300.
