That the showing Of the Northern
Pacific at the close of the fiscal year
June 30, 1900-will be a rccord-breaker
seems certain. Up to the present time
the road has hauled but little of the
Whea harvested along tho Svstom The
product has been stored. 1t is esti-
mated that three or four million bush
els now await transportation east. The
Great Northern, on the contrary, is be-
lieved to have handled about all Of last
seasons crop as far as it's hauling of
it goes. But the Northern Pacific is
so favored by the location of the ele-
vators along it's line that transporta-
ton must be over that road. The
coming spring will witness this, and
sufficiently early, it is hoped. to include
the freight charges in the annual re-
port of the next fiscal year.

Adjutant General Miller has received
eral Ward. U. S. A., of action by the
war department in the case of Louis
SWEET of this city. who enlisted for
service in the Philippines. and was
discharged without honor, through an
erroneous idea of the circumstances.
General Miller took the matter up with
the war department., and is informed
that the war department finds that
after investigation of the circum-
stances, that SWEET is entitled to an
honorable discharge and that no blame
attaches to him. The war department
records have been so changed and a
notation Of honest and faithful service
made on the discharge. The depart
ment also says he is entitled to full
pay and allowances. The action of the
war department in ordering a discharge
without honor was an injustice to the
young man, and his friends will be
pleased that it has been corrected.
