on more than two minutes when great
cloud of dust shot up into the air, ana
turning around, the men beheld q sight
that appalled, them. The cloud OF dust
was caused by the caving in of the side
of the hill, at the point where they rad
been at work only a few moments be-
fore. 1t is estimated that at least ntiy
tons of earth had given way, completely
covering that part of the foundation
where they had been at work to depth
of eight or ten feet.

RAILROAD SURVEY LINES.
Great Western Has 70 Running Into
Council Bluffs.
'rco,,ncil Rluffs Norpareil. /

TCouncil Bluffs NoEpareil.1
The force of eleven surveyors under
the direction of II. II. Tupbs. who have
heen working internationally in Council
Bluffs and vicinity all summer for the
Chicago Great Western railway. will
complete their labors for the season ana
leave the city next Tuesday.
The Great Westerns right-of- way for
its new line from Fort Dodge TO this city
has been marked out and negotiations
started towards purchase as near to
Council Bluffs as the old Chautauqua
grounds, about three miles east OF the
city. From Yorkshire to the Chautauqna
grounds the new line will parallel the
milwaukee,.
How the road is to enter Council
Bluffs the surveyors do not know. They
hugh at the Indian creek route, because
they say 1t will be too expensive One of
three lines which have been laid around
the horn southeast OF the city is con-
sidered likely to be used. 1t is consid-
cred probable that the line will enter the
city up South avenue, but further than
that the surveyors have not laid what
they call permanent lines.
1t is significant to note, however. that
OF the seyenty-elght possible lines they
have run into Council Bluffs every one
CT them terminates at the Illinois Gem
trail depot at Thirteenth street and Ave-
nue. A. This is taken to mean that the
Great Western, which comes in the
rame of the Mason City & Fort Dodge
railroad, is to ,lse both the Illinois Cen
trail passenger facilities and the Omaha
,,.'x. fyor lyS
into Omaha. Both are ample to accom-
modate another line.
Superintendent George A. Clark, Of
the Illinois Central admitted, not long
ago, that such move is not impracti-
cable, altho he said he had no direct
Knowledge on the subject. Since last
May the eleven Great Western survey
ors have been alternately raising and
lowering the fears of property owners
in various portions of the city. One day
they would run line down certain
street and the next day they would be
working several blocks away. The citi-
zens for while thought that each new
route meant the rejection of the old
ones, but finally became convinced that
the true roue would not be picked out
until later in the season.
Chief Engineer Marsten, of the Mason
City & Fort Dodge road, is quoted as
aaying that the securing Of options
along Indian creek really meant nothing
and laughed at the idea OF the road
coming in that way. He is thoroughly
familiar with the engineering problems
presented and the money 1t will require
IN each case, so one Of the surveyors
who are completing their work here de-
clared the other day
Meanwhile there is no evidence that
construction work will commence on the
lime near Council Bluffs until next
spring. Contracts for grading, con-
struction of track and station buildings
| are being let, however, and property Is
Icing bought up along the route thru
the country and towns and villages the
rev line will strike.

The Great Chain of Protest.


The purport Of the hour is vast;
The world wants Justice; 1t demands
United hearts, united hands;
The days OF charity are past. IL.
Men have outgrown the worthless creed
Which babe them deem it. Gods good VIII
That labor sweat and starve to I'LL
And glut the purse OF idle greed. 4
They have outgrown the poor content K.
That breeds oppression. Forged by pain. il
Mind linked to mind in one great chain ss.
OF protest and OF argument. ~.
And by the hand of progress hurled,
This mighty chain Of human thought,
In silence and anguish wrought, =
Encompasses the pulsing world. :
And he who will not form link
OF new conditions soon to be
Ere long must stand aghast and see
Old systems topping down the brink
They cannot and they shall not last;
The broader impulse Of the day
will gain and grow and sweep away e
The rank injustice Of the past.
More labor for the selhsh few,
More leisure for the burdened class
These things shall surely come to pas
As old conditions change to new.
They change through toll and strain and STRIFE;
Work for all men, for all men rest
And time to taste the Joys Of life.
