The Republican Policy.

There is difference between the
two political parties. The Repub-
licans do want to govern the mar
kets of the world, and to reign
over the distribution of the world s
bread and meat, securing in this
way work at home for every honest
laborer, markets for the products
of our farms, and becoming such a
factor in the world that will com
pei peace and justice among the
nations of the earth. 1t is the
policy which will hasten that bless
ed time promised by the prophet Of
old when the sword shall be beaten
into plowshares and the spear into
pruning hooks. 1t is the Republi-
can npolicy.--Freeport( Ill. Journal.

EXCURSION NOTICES.
Ready for RuffaIo's Show.

1t would hardly occur to resident of
this locality that the severity of the
Winter prohibits the work of the rail-
road section gang in region 30 near as
Western New York. But such is the
fact. From Thanksgiving Day to
April Fools Day, or thereabouts, the
pick and shovel of the section laborer
is securely locked in the Toulouse, and
the track repairer finds other work.
The snow and frost have yielded now
to the gentle warmth of the sun, and
the gang is out again preparing the
roadbed for the great traffic of the
Summer.
On the western end of the Pennsyl-
vania Railroads new route to Buffalo
new and heavier rails are being laid,
and additional ballast is being placed.
The entire line is dotted with workmen
substituting new crossties, placing the
new rails and chnking in the ballast
that makes the roadway solid
The bridges are likewise receiving a
share of attention, and the physical
condition of the line is undergoing a
general overhauling. The operating
officials anticipate a heavy increase in
traffic during the Pan-American Expo
sition, and they are placing the line in
heavier and multiplied number of fast
trains.
At the Buffalo Terminal, Exchange
Street, additional trackage has been
laid and a number of repairs and i'm
provements have been made for the
better handling of heincreased through
and local traffic.
1t is said that the trains specially de-
Stined to the exposition will be run
through to the station on the exposition
grounds and started from that point on
the return trip; but even if this is not
done, the trains of the Belt Line run at
frequent intervals and connect the ex-
position grounds with every quarter of
the city and the principal railroad
station.
The Pennsylvania Railroad officials
report alreadya gratifying increase in
traffic since the inauguration of the
new line between Philadelphia, Balti-
more, Washington and Buffalo. O.-Phila-
