FULLY PREPARED
TO HANDLE CROP
CANADIAN ROADS HAVE ACcUMU-
LATED ROLLING STOCK.
Box Cars and Engines Assembled at
Principal Points to Move Biggest
Crop in History of the Canadian
Northwest Problem Will Tax Eff
cheney of the Service.

Best information from the Canadian
northwest indicates that the railroads
have so conserved their strength and so
skillfully handled their resources that
when the wave breaks and the food Of
new grain comes pouring in, they will
be able to move out 100000 bushels
on the first great drag.
Minneapolis men coming down this
morning from the Canadian country
ing made above the line to get in read
mess for the greatest transportation
problem that country has yet faced
the handling Of this seasons heavy
crop. To meet the rush Of first mar
ketings, the Canadian Pacific and Can
adian Northern roads have been seiz
ing upon every available bit of rolling
stock and setting out cars at strategic
points. All cars arriving at Winnipeg
are being held. Fifty new locomotives
were sent into western Canada in the
past few days, and not less than IA 900
empty boxcars are on side tracks. The
railroads are holding out every assur-
ance Of ability to take the edge Oft the
early movement and avoid congestion,
and are putting forth herculean efforts
in preparatory way, that they may
make good. =.
More Difficult Than Ever
The problem this year, as outlined by
O. H. Metcalf of Winnipeg, who was in
Minneapolis today, is. rendered more
difficult than last year by four factors.
The size Of the crop and increased early
pressure that may naturally be expect,
ed from wheat total of 100000
bushels larger than last year, is the
most important. The better quality. of
the wheat, which will lead more farm
ers to ship it, where last year the lower
condition Of some of it and liability OF
damage in transit, induced immediate
sale to country elevators, is another;
| The fact that instead of the gradual
extension of the harvest the entire
acreage is in maturity at almost the
same date, and the whole crop ten days
earlier than last year, is third, and
| last consideration, but by no means an
unimportant one, is the larger crop In
eastern Ontario, which will call fo1
more cars and cut the supply available
for the farther northwest.
On the whole the western Canads
traffic problem this year is one to tax
the abilities of railroad management tt
the utmost. Nevertheless it is prom
ised that the crop will be handled II
satisfactory manner, all circumstances
I considered. . ~e

RAMSEY WAITING
Won't Have 100000 People Until Off
cial Publication.

q " Ramsey county is in no hurry to
come under the laws applying to coun-
ties Of 100000 inhabitants. County
Auditor Krahmer has received notice
Of the court from Secretary Of State
Hanson, and he referred the question
to County Attorney T. R. Kane. In
reply, Mr.. Kane holds that the county
will not have official notice of the cen.
sus until the official publication pro-
vided in the state census law, which re-
quires the secretary of state to pub
lish and distribute 10000 copies of the
census record not later than Jan. l.
That publication has not been made,
and will not be until about the close
of the year, so Ramsey will not come
under the 100000 class during 1905.

DEATHLEss DEATH.

At eve when the brief wintry day is sped,
I muse beside my fires faint-nickering glare
Conscious Of wrinkling face and whitening
hair
OF those who, dying young, inherited
The immortal youthfulness of the early dead
I think Of Raphaels grand-seigneurial air;
ODf Shelley and Keats, with laurels fresh and
fair
Shining unwithered on each sacred head;
And soldier boys who snatched deaths starry
prize,
With sweet life radiant to their fearless eyes,
The dreams of love upon their beardless lips
Bartering dull age for Immortality;
Their memories hold in deaths unyieldng fee
The youth that thrilled them to the fnger-tips

sioux CITY. Iowa, that the Maple Leaf
Would build to that city within four
months month About two years ago pre-
liminary survey was made by an en-

and periodically since then it has been
renorted that Mr.. Stickney will extend
his system to Sioux City and thus
seek a new outlet into the three states
that meet at that point.

THE MAGAZINES

Equitable Savior Is Lifesaver OF
Drowning observation-disclosures F. Ry
an, the "savior of the Equitable" is
wonderful person, says The Worlds
Work for September When opportunity
knocks at his door the door flies open of
itself. His fortune, estimated by Thomas
w. Lawson at s60,00O,000, and by better
Judges at from $25,O00,0OO to $4,000. 900,
is founded upon the one word ''reorgan-
ization." He is a professional lifesaver
of drowning corporations. When the
stormy financial was pounding into
wrecks the Hooking Valley railroad, the
Metropolitan Street Railway and the Sea-
board Air Line, this strong and skilfui
swimmer Of financial whirlpools came no.
bly, to their rescue. When tempest of
public opinion threatened to engulf the
Equitable society, again the lifesaver!
When the Washington Life Insurance
company was on the verge Of bankruptcy,
he rescued it. Out Of every reorganiza-
ton Mr.. Ryan has made fortune. John
Shelton Williams charges that the Sea-
board AIR Line has been "nlilked" for
81, 900, 900. The Hooking Valley episode
probably netted Mr.. Ryan more than
$500, 900. The Metropolitan deals are still
paying him tremendous revenues. He
saves the corporations from ruin and
they save him from poverty.

The incisive Senator Roscoe Conkling more
than once remarked that the capitol was "a

building with a dome upon 1t, and 1t is
mainly this effect which Messrs. Carrere and
Hastings seek to correct in their rearrange-
ment of the east front. Unhampered by con-
siderations Of space, they are able to approach
While following in a certain measure the more
feasible of Walters suggestions, they have ex-
ercised greater restraint and have displayed a
deeper regard for the accepted appearance of
the building. The plan which they favor, and
which it is hoped may be adopted, shows as
little change possible in the composition Of
| the facade. In detail their scheme consists in
moving the front of the old structure only far
enough forward to bring the main wall at Its
center under the extreme projection of the
dome, which now overhangs the wall and seems
| to repose on the portico. In order to accom-
plish this it will be necessary to extend the
| wall twelve feet ten inches in an easterly
direction.

BOOK ABOUT AMERICAN ORCHIDS.
Before his, death William Hamilton
Gibson had made drawings Of all yarie-
ties of native orchids found in the north
eastern United States. He had also COL
lected extensive notes, with the intention
of giving Americans a book that would
be at once a comprehensive and compact
guide to that most interesting form of
plant life, But before he got the work
completed death called him. His incom-
plete work fell to Helena Leeming Jel-
life, who, has elaborated Mr.. Gibson's
notes into more than readable text, and
arranged the Observation-Disclosures draw
sings SO as to illuminate the text most
effectively. Lovers Of orchids as they
grow wild will, therefore, find in the book
an extremely valuable assistant for their
researches. We understand that no such
book has ever been published. If thai
Is the case the present volume ought te
