A GRAVITY LINE.
One to Run Up Agency Hill is
Proposed.
Prospective Route For the Street Rail-
way Line Laid Out by Officials
and Engineer Gray.

A gravity line up Agency hill will
be one of the features of Mankato's
street railway system if the deal with
the eastern capitalists goes through.
By this plan, one Car goes up while
the other comes down, the weight of
one balancing that of the other.
In speaking of this, W. L. Hixon
said today: cit would be less ex-
pensive to operate a gravity line right
up the hill than to furnish power to
send the cars up separately by long
and circuitous route up the cemetery
ravine road. A Car line going up the
Main street hill would strike into the
center of East Mankato, and not so
much tracKage would be required. "
Engineer Gray of Minneapolis, who
is to be the engineer Of the local street
railway company, drove around the
city yesterday afternoon, with officers
of the company, going over the pro-
posed route Of the line.

have a couple of loops, one of which
will go out to Sibley park on Front
street and make a circuit toward the
cement works, returning through Ogle
& Davis addition, and Pleasant and
Clark streets, and thence down Warren
The other will take in the north part
of the city, and separate line will
run the length of Fifth street, to take
in the normal and high schools, court
house, Catholic church and college,
st. Joseph's hospital, the breweries,
etc.
The intention is that person
boarding a Car in any part of the city
can reach any other part without
transferring, except that transfers will
be necessary to take the Fifth street
line. No extra charge would be made
for transfer, of course. Such a sys-
tenn would give general satisfaction.
The plan proposed contemplates a
double track on Front street for dis
lance of six or eight blocks.
Mr.. Gray states that the city is we'll
situated for feasible and eventually
paying line.

Reply to Mr.. J. d. Aiken.
Editor Journal

IL'tIVOA CouA h"h
We beg to reply to the article of
Mr.. j. d. Aiken in your paper Of
last week which reflected seriously
on the Supervisor and County Com
missioners in the matter of the
Martin Central road. The facts
are that this road was laid out by
the commissioners during the last
term of T.. +. Looper's administra-
ton 1898, and upon coming into
office wo endeavored to dissuade
the people from urging it's COM
pletion, thinking the roads already
in that neighborhood might prove
sufficient. People interested how
ever threatened to bring action to
compel us to open this road to
travel, and to save law suit and
expense to the county we proceeded
to carry out the action binding on
us through a former body of Off
GERS. In opening this road for
travel We wore only dong what
the law required us to do. We do
not care to notice the insinuations
and remarks of Mr.. Aiken.
Respectfully,
l.. D. Stephens,
Robt. Stewart.

WYATT AIKEN FOR CONGRESS

Cokeabury, s. G., Aug. IL, 1902.
TO The Sentinel: AS q friend of
Wyatt Aiken in this congressional
race ia the Third district, 7 want to
give my views Of the man, as one who
has known him since his boyhood
days. I was raised with him, both
being reared in old Cokesbury, the
old time town of South Carolina his.
tory. Both CT us received our carly
t,S"ool training here. We were boys
together, and I want to Say as a
friend n companionship In Eye olden
days" 81 vt Wyatt was always with US.
In those 'arlisr years Of his life, bis
heart and and wore, az now, at the
scr vice OF O friend In trouble, or with
a stranger IN ueed. He was always
ON tho side or the "under dog"
School days over, he worked for
our interests In ,fter years, when he
was in a position to do 80. He has
never forgotten eny of uB or the old
ties Of youth. de attended in his
earlier years tb old Cokesbury Con-
ference school and in later years he
graduated IL I'M Young's college in
Washington. D. @.
IL the p ,riod Of his life when he
served ju3ge, jury and witness, as Of.
ticiai photographer. he has been a
close Observer of the peoples needs
and constant student of public
events. T will venture to say that no
man in this district is more thorough
ly posted or the questions of the day.
He is an all round public spirited
citizen, aud is in touch with all the
people Of the district.
It has been said, and truthfully SO,
that Wyatt Aiken would give the last
dollar he possessed to poor man in
need and in trouble, but he is not
more generous than he is true to
friend and loyal to principle by ma
ture. A. man of the people, and his
training and life experiences have
kept him 30. He is the man we want
to represent us from the Third dis
trict in congress.
1t has been said that he would be q
failure as o public speaker; that he
could not make aapeeeh;that he could
not oope in argument with bis as.
sooiates in congress. That delusion
has, been dispelled. I have heard
him, and I want to say that he con
convince his hearers on Che questions
Of the day. He has developed into q
strong stump speaker, and he can
take care OF himself In any discussion
on any form. But otter .all ls said,
1t is not tho spread eagle orator that
makes things come to pass In con.
gress or elsewhere. M.
