buy one shsre. A COW, twelve chicken
and two pigs will then be given the
young farmer, along with the use of a
tract of ground. The beasts and the
fowls are valued at S35. of which $40 is
paid by the purchase of share, SO
more is advanced by the union, TO be
paid back into its treasury by the young
farmer within five years out of his earn
ings. and the remaining SIS is to be
paid into the treasury by him out of the
800, which is givenI him for his first
years work, along with whatever in
crease there may have been in his live
stock.
The boys ara to do the heavy farm
work and the girls TO make butter,
raise the chickens and perform those
other duties that fall to the lot of the
farmers wife. An administration
building will be erected in the center of
the tract of land, and near it will be q
building for the boys and one for the
girls. Lessons in the proper manner

BE A GREAT BENEFIT
Ottumwa May be Made Central
Division on Milwaukee.
WILL MOVE MANY OFFICIALS HERE
Milwaukee May Use Old Wabash
Track on South Side to Enter Its
Passenger station--Means a Great
Deal to Ottumwa-other News.

1t is reported in railroad circles
thai as soon as the Milwaukee cutoff
between this city and Davenport is
completed the division point will be
removed to this city and that the SUI
perintendent's office from Kansas
City and the dispatchers office in
Marion will be removed here. This
is based on the fact that the road
from here to Marion will be some
what of a branch line and not SO
many trains will be run that way as
at present, and with the completion
of the line to Davenport, it will make
it very unhandy to handle the trains
as at present. This city will be the
central point for the three divisions
and by removing the Office of the SUI
perintendent and dispatchers here,
with all their auXiliaries, the business
would be greatly centralized and it
could be handled in very satisfac-
tory manner.
To Use Wabash Tracks.
In this connection it is also said
from a very authentic source that the
Milwaukee will get control of the old
Wabash track on the South Side that
rms from it's main line to junction
with the Milwaukee near the latter's
bridge across the river in the West
End, and the latter road will run its
passenger trains that way into Ottum-
wa. The present manner in backing
into the passenger station from the
junction does not give satisfaction
anG much time is lost in that way.
When the Davenport line is complet-
Ell. it is the intention to put on some
new fast passenger trains, and if they
would still have to get into the pas
senger station here as of old, they
would loose entirely too much time.
With the absorption of the Wabash
track along the south bank of the riv-.
er all that delay would be Cultivated,
and the trains could get into the pas
senger station without delay.
Station Will Be Removed.
If this is done it is more than prob
able the present station at the juno
ton will be abandoned and new de-
pot erected on the South Side of the
river, where the new yards are to be
built
1t is we'll known that the present
facilities will be inadequate when the
new line is completed, in fact, the
present conditions at the Junction are
not at all satisfactory. 1t is said that
station room ample for all require
ments will be built near the new
yards.
ss What 1t Means.
What this means to Ottumwa can
hardly be estimated It will mean
the removal here of great many
families, and if it is true that this is
to be made the central division, it is
more than likely all the railroad men
living at Marion will remove here. 1t
lis expected that the men will run both
ways from here, that is both to Daven-
port and Marion, and if this is the
case it will make it nearly imperative
that all reside here. The citizens of
Ottumwa will watch the completion Of
this line with more than ordinary in
terest, and it is the universal hope.
that this city will be made the cen
trai division point for all three divi-
sions.

Representative Champ Clark
made a semi-humorous speech in
his best vein in favor of his amend
ment to the Re-apportionment
bill, providing for the making of
the District of Columbia a terri
tory, which was ruled out on a
point of order He said: ut is a
disgrace to the American Repub-
lie that right here under the
shadow of the dome of the Capitol,
100000 people-black, white and
copper -colored-are absolutely dis
franchised, and have no more voice
in their own government than if
they were so many digger Indians.
The only objection that l have
ever heard to my proposition was
the statement of some fne-haired
citizens of this town that if the
right of franchise was restored to
these people the poor whites and
damn niggers would vote them in
to bankruptcy. This is a very
strange statement to be made in
this Capital. You cannot walk 800
yards in this town without seeing
either the efigy of Andrew jack
son or Abraham Lincoln. And to
say that poor whites are dangerous
voters in this country, in town
that holds up the lives of men as
exemplars of American manhood
is absolutely preposterous. 4 waq
out in Missouri told me that when
Andrew jackson was sworn in as
Vice-President, in looking up al
the diplomatic gallery he happened
to catch sight of the representa-.
tives of foreign powers up there
and he shook his fist at them and
