Allis-Chalmers Company has won the highest honors at the St. Louis eX- hibition with each of their three ex- hibits: Steam engine, electrical and mining. The 5000 horse power engine popularly known as the Big Reliable" and the huge generator built by this company's electrical department other wise known as the Bullock Electric Manufacturing Company, each won a grand prize These two machines, forming the huge unit which supplies the world famous decorative lighting of the Exposition buildings and grounds, and which have never failed under the most frequent and most un- expected emergency loads, are so we'll known as the dominating features of the machinery section of the EXposi- tion that it is unnecessary to describe them again. The Big Reliable" has become the most renowned power unit in the world. In the department of Mines and Metallurgy the AIlis- Chalmers exhibit was also awarded grand prize, the highest honor given by the international jurors. Among other features of this mining exhibit, aud contributing to the success which won the highest award, are the famous style "K" Gates gyratory rock and ore breakers, the Overstrom concentrating table, the Chalmers style "A" and "B" crushing rolls, the Gates Ball and tube mills, and the heavy six-foot Huntington mill, known as the "Ana conda" type, manufactured only by this company, which is recognized as among the leaders in the engineering world. The Bullock Electric Manu- featuring Compauy's grand prize also covered all their alternators, synchron- ous motors, direct current generators and motors, and rotary converters. This award, in competition with their older and great competitors, is a sig nifcant tribute which must interest all users of electrical machinery. In ad- dition the Bullock system of multiple voltage control of motors won a gold Denver Mining Reporter.

c. D. Lane, president and general manager of the Wild Goose Mining Company, of Nome, arrived in Seattle from that place yesterday on the Ore gon, accompanied by Mrs. Lane, says the P. l. of Nov. 1st. Contrary to the general expressed opinion, MT. Lane claims that the output of the past sea- son at Nome equals that of last year. He says that although the lack of snow last winter caused the ground to freeze to an unusual depth and that scarcity of water during the summer necessitat- ed mining under adverse conditions, nevertheless the banks this year have purchased more gold than last year. While he would not quote the exact figures of the seasons output he ex- pressed himself as positive that it would at least equal if not exceed that of the previous season.

VALDEZ ROAD IMPRACTICABLE.

VALDEZ ROAD IMPBACTICABLE.
 The proposed overland winter stage service from Valdez to Fairbanks has been abandoned. Captain Geiger, who intended to establish the line, has abandoned the project. No cause for his abandonment is known, but it is likely that the great work that would be entailed in getting supplies distrib- uted along the route was the chief ob lection. Roadhouses and stables would have to be provided and stocked at a great cost. The fact that there is no river paralleling the Valdez Fairbanks route, as in the Yukon valley routes, makes the distribution of supplies at reasonable figures almost impossible on the Valdez route. In addition there is no road over which to handle any quantity of goods in summer.
 The Fairbanks News says of Geiger's scheme:
 Captain Geiger, who it was reported several months ago, would establish stage line between Fairbanks and Val dez this winter, has returned to Fair banks after an extensive trip outside. He st ates that he has given up the ven- ture aud decided instead to interest himself in mining in this district.
 It had been planned by the Captain to enter into a partnership with Oscar Foote, of Valdez, who secured the Val dez Fairbanks mail contract. Satisfac- tory arrangements could not be made and for that reason Captain Geiger re tired from the enterprise. MT. Foote is now outside. He will probably re- turn to Valdez very shortly to prepare for the first trip after the snow flies.

A FARMERS RAILWAY.
Projected, Financed, Built and Oper
ated by North Dakota Wheat
Growers,

The movement of crops was former
ly problem, but railways and trolley
lines almost to the farmers doors now
provide transportation, writes Isaac
+. Marcosson in the Worlds Work.
But difficulties arose, such as con-
fronted the wheat growers of Ramsey
county, North Dakota.
These farmers hauled their grain
often a distance of 25 miles-to Devils
Lake, the county seat, through which
the Great Northern Railway passed. 1t
kept the farmers hauling grain all
winter. They asked Mr. James J.
Hill, president of the Great Northern
railroad, to build a branch line from
Devils Lake up through their section.
Mr.. Hill said he could not build. Six
of the largest farmers met at a
schoolhouse. One of them was Mr..
Joseph Kelley, who owned 900 acres
of land, and who hauled his wheat 15
miles to Devils Lake. Mr.. Kelley
said, "If the Great Northern won't
build, we will build" And the farm
ers built railroad % miles long.
They asked every farmer who haul
ed grain to DEVILS lake to subscribe.
Some subscribed S25; others, $500.
They raised $4,000. They sent
farmer to Duluth to buy ties, and an
other to St. Paul 10 buy old rails. A
land-promoter was building a small
branch line out of DEVILS lake to the
south, and they got him to survey the
road. They hired section-hands to lay
the track. But they needed more
money. They bought land along the
line and laid out three towns, sold the
lots, and used the money to buy an
old engine, day-coach, and four box
cars from the Great Northern railway
Then the road was started. It will
stop for any farmer at any place.
Last year, the road made its expenses;
it hauled 10000 bushels of wheat.
This year, with the railroad at hand,
the farmers planted more wheat, and
the road will haul 100000 bushels.
I went to Starkweather, the largest
town laid out by the farmers on their
road. Two years ago, the site was a
| fax.field. | found it q bustling place,
with 80 stores and houses, 400 peo-
pie. school-house that cost $4,000,
three elevators with a capacity of
100000 bushels, three banks, a news
paper, and a church. At the other
two towns, which year ago were
farm lots, / found grain elevators,
schools and stores.
Here is what these farmers had
done when they built their railroad;
established three towns, increased the
price of land along the way 75 percent,
increased the yield of wheat, built
schools. established telephones. They
made a whole community richer and
independent.
