case of doubt about the result
Of your work, first draw you:
salary then submit your job for in
spection. This seems to have
been the motto that prompted the
Hon. Philetus Averitt, of Fremont
county, to act regarding his work
on the code commission. His
work, or rather the lack of it, was
so rank that even his associate
members could not stand Tor it
and openly condemn him in their
report. But the Hon. Philetus
did not forget to draw his salary.
He remembered the source and the
reason for his appointment. He
was busy during the summer,
strenuously busy. Democratic del.
egates and visitors who attended
the two democratic state conven-
tions during the past year will re-
member that the Hon. Philetus
was busy. He was the pinned
knight that lead the hosts of Steu-
nenberg to victory at Lewiston and

is only a fraction OF the unfinished

1t knowledge that the legislature
will have to look after deficiency

TrauscontinentaI Railway.

Claims for the honor of originating
the transcontinental railroad idea have
been made by many persons-Dr. Sam
uel b. Barlow. of Massachusetts. Lewis
Gaylord Clark. Irving's and Bryant's
literary friend; Lilburn W. Boggs. who
was Governor of Missouri from 1886 to
1910: Hartwell Carver, grandson of
Jonathan Carver. and several others:
but the distinction unquestionably be-
longs to Is. W. Dexter, or to the man
who wrote that article printed in 1882
in Dexter's paper the Ann ArbOr Emil
grant.
Barlow had an article in the Intelli-
gencer. a weekly newspaper In West
field. Mass, in 1884. advocating a route
across the continent over course
which the Northern Pacific followed
very closely afterward. but Barlow re-
ferred in that article to the contribution
previously printed in the Ann Arbor
Emigrant. The Rev. Samuel Parker. a
Presbyterian missionary. sent out by
his church in New York. who crossed
the Rocky Mountains TO the Columbia
in 1885, wrote in his journal, after MAX
ing that trip. that there would be no
difficulty in the way of constructing Il
railrVad from the Atlantic to the Paci-
fic Ocean" Possibly he had read Dex.
ter and Barlow before going on this
trip. John Plumbe. of Dubuque. Iowa.
in pamphlet printed in 1896. advo-
Gated the construction of a railroad
from Lake Michigan to the Pacific. and
continued his advocacy for many years
afterward.-BostOn Transcript.
