who sought to impeach the integ-
rity of Alderman Houston in the

representations containing not one

A PUBLIC NEED.

THE TRIBUNE today publishes a
communication from Agent Men
eel of the D. & r q in reference
to ali article that appeared in these
columns few days since anent
the local service afforded by the
Western Union Telegraph com
pany. In the article referred to
there was no intention to criticize
the depot contingent, nor was
especial stress laid upon the up
town office. Florence, however,
has right to demand and expect
better service uptown, that is to
say, the office should be open con
stantly throughout the day and un
til midnight; and the Office should
be kept open on Sunday rs well
Now, here is case in point-last
Sunday little. year-old girl was
sent alone from Redclitf to a man
in this city on train No. A A
message was Immediately sent to
advise the local party of what had
been done, but the train and the
helpless child arrived before the
message WAS delivered. Saturda,
evening message WAS sent from
Salida to Florence. One attempt
was made to deliver the message,
but as the party could not be found
before 8 O'Clock and as the Office
closed at that hour, the message was
not delivered and it's purpose mis-
carried Those things occur con
stantly, and if the Western Union
is not able to meet the require
ments of the public, then steps
should be taken to secure the ser
vices of some other line

The new city council has started
out in the management of munich
pal affairs in dignitied and bust
ness-like manner, and there is no
doubt that several reforms will be
inaugurated during the year, A
good lot of officers were appointed
for the various departments and II
good, clean administration may be
expected. The good Judgment of
the board is also to be commended
in their choice of paper of general

TO TUNNEL HORSESHOE CURVE.


The Gigantic Project of the Pennsylvania
Railroad Co.
Tbs PennsyIvania Railroad Co. has
attracted the attention Of the engineer
ing world since the generally accepted
statement that the company contem-
plates Strengthening that portion of its
road between Altoona and Pittsburg,
distinguished by the famous Horseshoe
and other curves. To accomplish this
mammoth task will necessitste the pro-
lection ri tunnel which will be more
than seven miles in length, will pass
under several mountains, and 10 toto
will represent the greatest tunnel in
the world, as well as one OF the greatest
engineering and CONSTITUTIONAL feats ever
undertaken
For years there have been rumors
that the magnificent Horseshoe Curve
would have to be acrifieed TO the grow
ing demands for shorter and less pre-
oipitous line between Altoona and Pitts
burg. The statement has frequently
been made that 'till' would be
made, SO that the line might cross the
gorge which forms the hollow of the
Horseshoe, and below this great reser-
yoirn from which the Altoona water
supply is drawn. BY this arrangement
the curve would be eliminated. but the
tremendous grade would remain, and the
mere saving in distance without relief
in this latter and greater drawback
would not justify the vast outlay neces.
STATED.
Both the circuitous route and the
grade, however, will be avoided by uss
of the tunnel. Plans for this engineer
ing wonder have been for years sub
jeot of study on the part of Chief En-
gineer Brown of the Pennsylvania rail-
road, and 1t is COW SAID tnat these have
boon completed and are in the hands OF
the officials of the company. The tunnel
will begin near the Horseshoe Curve,
and will come out at point west of
Cresson, some miles beyond the present
end of the mile tunnel beyond the
Horseshoe, and "a most advantageous
point OF exit for westnound trains and
of entrance for eastbound trains Ths
mileage between the points will be re-
duced from 10 to by this plan. while
the saving in time will seem far out of
proportion to the distance saved on &C.
count of the run over track with grade
practically eliminated. Freight trains
on this section require two, and some
times three, "helpHrs, and the 'moun-
tain" helper, distinct type of nam
moth engine. has been developed for
this titanic task. This tremendous ad-
ditional cost will BIZ saved, and must
enter into computation of the value
and wisdom OF the project. Experit need
railroad men and engineers believe that
10 comparatively brief time the cost
of the Improvement would be met by
the innumerable ways in which savings
will bs effected.
