The two years reconstruction work
BY the Southern Pacific ON the line
between Reno and Ogden has resulted
in saving Of forty-seven and a half
miles in actual distance, but which is
the equivalent to seventy-fve miles
on account Of the overcoming Of diff

ing Of about two hours in actual run
ming time for q stretch Of 5S5 miles be
tween the two stations. It is expect I'd
that trains will be using the newt rca
that trains will be using the new
track system before the first of the

places have been Strengthened and
the grades reduced materially in ma
ny instances. To the west Of Reno
there is still the possibility Of over
coming an elevation of one thousand
feet by the construction Of tunnel

came story Of an old man driving .

the Mining and Engineering Review.
When the crosscut intercepted . Wide
vein Of rich stun, men pointed to the
incident as another evidence Of the
hit or miss character Of ordinary min
ing. The facts were far otherwise.
"Old Tommy Kruze." as he was
known al over Montana, was very
shrewd and sensible prospector. He
had found the outcrop Of . promising
lode On the mountain side and reali.
xed that, while one man alone cannot
sink . shaft hundred feet deep. he
can, with his own unaided energy,
drive . tunnel for several hundred
feet The tunnel cut the vein, whose
position he had previously determined:
So was begun the exploration Of .
mine which has become famous all
over the world as the Drumlummon.
and for which the discoverer received
1900 900. It now has over thirteen
miles Of workings out Of which has
come ore Of q value approximating
$15,00O, 900, nearly half Of which was
paid out in dividends to the fortunasc
stock holders.

CHANGES IN SENATE.

Though thirty of the senators of the
hfty-seventh congress have experience
ed the expiration of their terms, there
promises to be very little change in
the political complexion of that body
A majority of the thirty have been re-
elected to Office. Where changes have
been made it is noticeable that one po-
litical change has offset another, caus-
ing little practical difference in the
upper house. Among the prominent
men OF the senate who have been Sc
lected to succeed themselves there
are: Allison, Clay, Dillingham;, Fair
banks, Foraker, Gallinger, Hans
brough, kittridge. McEnery, Penrose,
Perkins, Pettus, Plat of New York,
Platt of Connecticut, Spooner and Tel
Ter
Those who, upon retirement, will
be succeeded by others of the some
party as themselves are McLaurin,
democrat, by Lattimer; Mason, repub-
lican, by Hopkins; Simon, republican,
by Fulton; Jones of Arkansas, demo-
crat, by Clark; Vest, democrat, by
Stone; McCreary, democrat, succeeds
DeBoe, republican; Long, republican,
succeeds Harris, democrat; Hepburn,
republican, succeeds Heitfeld, demo-
crat; Newlands, democrat, succeeds
Jones OF Nevada, republican; Over
man, democrat succeeds Pritchard, re-
publican; Smoot, republican, succeeds
Rawlins, democrat; Ankeny, republi--
can, succeeds Turner, democrat; Cor
man, democrat, succeeds Wellington,
republican. The disappearance Of
Mason and Wellington is cause of con-
graduation and there is much salts
faction in the fact that "Gas" Addicks
of Delaware is not to become men,

the power behind the throne as re-
CARDS at least one of the gentlemen
elected by the legislature of that state.

which the fifteenth amendment gave
him. The hopes of it's. authors have
been frustrated, and Secretary Root
did not go astray when he said so.
senator Hoar indirectly admitted the
truth of the secretaryls contention. He
said that in three of the old southern
states Maryland, Delaware and West
V1rginia-the political and constitu-
tlonal rights of the ne gro are as much
respected as they aa.e in Massachu-
sets. He did not refer to the state
of affairs in South Carolina, Alabama,
and other old slave states.
Since Senator Hohr misunderstood
so completely the plain statement of
the secretary of wan, others may have
done so. 1t should be distinctly un-
derstood that Mr. Root did not say
that no progress had been made to-
wards the solution of the negro prob
lem, or that the civil war had achiev.
ed nothing for tn e negro. All he said
was that the hopes entertained thirty
five years ago by northern men that
the negro, armed with the ballot.
would be able tp protect himself have
come to naught-because he did not
know how to use the ballot.

LAWS GOVERNING MARRIAGE.

Iowa City Citizen: A little less
than a year ago there was formed in
this city society of physicians, the
membership of which comprises some
800 of the leading physicians of this
state, and the purpose of which is to
secure the enactment of laws bearing
upon marriage. The organization
seems to be bearing fruit for
on Thursday last, at Sioux City, be-
fore the Council of Jewish Women,
Judge G. S. Robinson of the board of
control made this question the sub
ject of an address.
In the course of his remarks he
stated that the marriage laws of Iowa
were too lax and that a great per
cent of The inmates of the school for
feeble-minded at Glenwood come from
weak-minded parents or those who
use alcohol and drugs. He stated that
the next legislature should pass a law
making all men and women pass a
physical examination before marry
ing; that such a law should have been
made before the law for compulsory
education was passed and that no eff.
fort is being made to curb the taints
of heredity.
Diseases" declared Judge Robin,
son, if he is quoted correctly, "and
the tendency to contract them are
transmitted from parent to children
and it is of the utmost Importance that
something be done by the Legislature
and as soon as possible"

PUTS BLAME ON MORGAN.

Minneapolis Enthusiastically Is
agreed in putting the responsibility for
the extra session of the senate on poor
old Morgan, who talked the Panama
bill to death in this one. But probably
the Cuban treaty would have compell-
ed the President to call the senate to-
gether anyway. It has been impossible
to get consideration for that treaty.
The story is that a lot of sugar and to-
bacco senators promised the President
that they would vote for it, meaning
to escape fulfillment by preventing
consideration. Quay's holdup is said
to have had this object among others.
When the President made it known
that he would not be fooled with in
this way, and would call an extra SEES
sion it was too late for action anyway.
and it was thought just as well to let
Morgan talk the rest of the time any
way,

THE EXTRA SESSION.

Kansas City Star-President Roose-
welt has been entirely justified in call
ing the extraordinary session of the
senate to consider these two treaties
Colombian and CUBAN. He would
have been derelict in his duties if he
had failed to issue the call. The
people want the Isthmian canal to be
gotten under way. 1t represents one
of the greatest enterprises to which
the country has ever set itself. 1t has
been considered for half century.
The making of the canal is CONNER
ciaI necessity and strong stragetic
expedient. The enlarged trade with
the orient on the one hand demands
connection between the Atlantic and
the Pacific without turning Cape Horn.
The extensive coast line of the United
States makes it imperative TO the best
disposition of the naval force of the
country in case of war with a power
full enemy that the defensive engines
of the country may be transferred from
one ocean to the other without seri-
GUS loss of time.
AS for the Cuban treaty, public SEN
timent in the United States is all one
way. The wonder is that congress has
had the temerity to trifle with this SEN
timent so long and deiantly. JUS
tice must be done to the Cubans and
justice must be done to the American
people. Both demand that the pledge
of the government shall be fulfilled in
eAsure, even if the contemplate

PRESIDENT RoosEvELrs MAIL.

President Roosevelt was telling a
friend about his mail, which averages
500 or 600 letters day, says the New
York World.
zone of the most remarkable let
tiers | ever received he says, "arriy
ed on the morning the first full ac.
counts of the Martinique disaster were
printed in the newspapers. The writ,
err said he saw that the American con-
sui at Martinique had been burned to
death. He. applied for the place, and
wound up with the sentence:
I make this early application so
as to get in ahead of those loathsome
creatures. the officeseekers.'
Another curious letter." continued
the President, "came from a mem
her of the Union League club in New
York. 1t wouldn't be fair to tell his
name. This man wrote me that he
had met a travelled German coming
from Europe on the Deutschland, and
that the German had confided to him
that in the interior of Nicaragua there
was lake 100 miles long and thirty
miles wiRe that was deep enough for
navigation. He FASTENED to tell me
this important news inasmuch as he
thought it would be well to have the
lake looked up as part of the route
of the isthmian canal.
''He was in earnest, too" said the
President, regardless of the fact that
Lake Nicaragua has been the basis of
the Nicaragua canal plans for the last
half century or more. and appears on
every real map of the country ever
made.
Zone Of the most narrowing expert
ences ever had in the way of letters,
though" said the President, was
shortly after came into office. Some
devilishly ingenious democratic news
paper correspondent sent out story
in which he said was anxious to have
the people advise me on public ques-
lions. He said was thirsting for ad-
vice.
"The result was" continued the
President, with a shudder Of horror,
that in two days my mail doubled in
size and in a week quaG; ttpled. The
people evidently had advice on tap"
