For some time past the Philadelphia
Record has been publishing a series Of
articles on advertising. its uses and
abuses, its benefits and success to be
accrued therefrom. A recent issue Of
the Record says;
Contrary 10 the expressed belief ofthe
late MIR. =. L. Barnum, the people dc
not like to be humbugged. They neither
forget nor forgive double dealing. There.
fore. when writing an advertisement the
wise merchant sticks to facts, and the
reader knows he can purchase of him
wha, is advertised. The merchant whose
advertisements can be depended upon is
sure OF liberal patronage.

RAILROAD MEETING.
Northwestern Officials Meet Prominent Grand
RAPIDS Business Men TO Locate Depot.

Tuesday afternoon J. NJ. Whitman.
vice president. ]. Z. Blunt. consulting
engineer. and L. P. Yale. resident
engineer, officials of the Northwestern
road, met many Of the prominent
business men of the city in the parlOrs
of the Witter House. The gentlemen
about town were introduced to the
visitors, by J. L. Pennifill. who has
been in the city for some time in the
interest of the Northwestern people
and had become acquainted with the
majority of the business men. Mr..
Whitney stated thesobiect of his visit
was to consult with the business men
and if possible to arrange with them
for a central location for their freight
and passenger depOtS and to secure
right of way through the city 100 feet
wide, the depot grounds to be 800 feet
wide and 1000 feet long He also said
that elrengineero had made a rather
thorough survey of the West side and
he thought that was where they should
want to come into the city. After
examining the city platS at consider
able length and RECEIVING all kinds of
suggestions from the gentlemen pres
ent, Mr. Whitney stated he thought
the road would want a location be-
tween the river and the tracks of NJ.
& S. E. road on the West side with
depot grounds between Cranberry
and Wisconsin streets, and the passage
of satisfactory ordinances governing
their rights and future operations in
the city. That the road asked neither
bonus, bonds or money to secure their
coming merely a right of way through
the city and the grounds specified
above for side tracks and depot pur-
poses He said that in week their
engineer would be able to state just
where they should want these grounds
and right of way, and asked the citi-
ZenS to be able by that time to make a
definite answer to their proposition.
From what was said it appears that it
will be an expensive proposition to
give the Northwestern people what
they want in the city, as the road
would run through the heart of the
West side, still the people of Grand
Rapids want the Northwestern road
and are willing to do all they reason
ably can to smooth the way of their
coming into the city. The develop
mentS of the meeting make it plain
that the Northwestern is determined
to come to Grand Rapids. 1t is also
plain that they want the cream of the
city in the way of location. The next
week or two will probably determine
the matter satisfactorily to all con-
cprnpd

Power Transferred by Electricity,

The st. CrOiX Power company Of st.
Paul is developing the water power Of
the Apple river near Somerset, Wis.
and arranging for the transfer of this
power. a distance of 80 miles, to be
used in manufacturing plants in the
capital city Of Minnesota. The work
will be completed on Sept Il and is
described as follows:
For months the st. CrOiX Power
company has been showing nature her
mistakes in the making of the Apple
river twelve miles northeast Of Still
water. near Somerset, Wis. There
had been originally created a fall Of
forty feet The st. CrOiX company
developed this worthy suggestion
by erecting a great dam, where in a
Chinese wall of masonry forty feet
high and three hundred feet long gave
the little river size and dignity that
it had never dreamed Of. An arti-
ficial incline has been made to conduct
from this great reservoir the rivers
current down to Il tunnel-like steel
pipe. Connected with that pipe are
now four sturdy turbine water wheels.
A fifth wheel will soon be put in
place. The total head; or fall, of
the water is no less than eight-four
feet.
The turbines act directly upon Il
series of electric generators which.
when the fifth wheel is obtained. will
create a prodigious current Of electric
ity. The force of the current will be
fully 5000 horse power. Yet all that
violence and certain death will be
convened to St Paul along "A thin
copper rope composed Of six half-inch
wires. The wires will be carried by
poles. like a telegraph line.

Sad Experience OF Nebraska.
Chicago Tribune.

The melancholy inhabitants of
Omaha are still protesting that the
bad work of the census enumeratOrS is
responsible for the small number of
people credited to their city. Perhaps
they will discover when the returns
from the whole State are in that
where PopuliSm rules population does
not increase rapidly.
One of the distinctive features of
PopuliSm is its hatred of capital. But
that State or city which is without
capital, employed either by it's owners
or the men Of energy who are able to
borrow it. does not prosper. Without
the aid of capital agriculture makes
little headway and manufacturing
none. Wherever POpuliStS seize the
reinS Of government they set to work
at once to enact laws to prevent the
influx of new capital and hasten the
of capital which is subject
to their jurisdiction. They make
furious war on railroads. They attack
by legislation every industry which is
building up the community, but which
seems to be making money. To make
money in other ways than by cheating
creditors is not looked on with favor
in the land Of POpuliSm.
Where the activities of government
are devoted to the suppression of en-
terprise instead of its protection, a
growth in population is not to be
looked for. Nebraska has known the
curse of Populist government. 1t has
now Governor and one Senator Of
that faith. Citizens of Omaha would
do we'll to contemplate the possibility
that Bryanism. which is Populism. is
decidedly more responsible for the
small population of their city than
lazy enumeratOrS are. Should the
returns for Nebraska show that the
State has done SO poorly during the
last decade that it may lose Repre-
under the next apportion-
ment, us some fear will be the case,
Nebraskans should understand that
the principles of their esteemed fellow
citizen, Mr.. Bryan, are the cause of
that misfortune.
Loyalty to Bryan and Populism is
an expensive luxury. Nebraska and
the adjoining State of Kansas have
found that out in many ways. When
the census returns are in they will
have some definite statistics, which
will give them a clearer idea of the
price they have paid.
