REPORT OF COAST EXTENSION.
President A. i EarIing Of Milwaukee
and st, Paul Enters Denial.

Chicago, Feb. %. - dispatch from
Sioux City, yesterday says the Mill
waukee and st. Paul railroad will be
ready in few days to announce plans
for Pacific Coast extension from
Chamberlain, S. D. President A. j.
Earring denied the report yesterday in
Chicago.
A. V. Adams, of Milwaukee, secre-
tary of the railroad, has been in Sioux
City week working on the matter,
according to the dispatch. While no
hint of details of the plan is given
at this time, the announcement is ex-
pected to set aside all doubts as to the
intention of the company to push on
to the coast at once.
The extension, it is said, will be
built from Chamberlain and not Ev-
erts, S. D. The surveys from Cham
berlain to Seattle also are said to have
been completed, having been in pro-
cess of preparation for five years.

the indebtedness is deducted.

Winnebago county has more Of the
school funds of the state loaned out
than any other county of the state. 1t
has $215, 5,276.51. It's nearest competitor
is Sioux county with $129,452.84. The
apportionment has just been made up
by the state auditor and this year
amounts for the six months ending
March 6, 1906 to IA 81100 cents for
each youth in the county. Linn, Scott
and Clayton counties are the only ones
that have none Of the school money
The counties get the money from the
state for AZ per cent and loan 1t out
for five or over. Marshall county, ac-
cording to the report of the auditor,
has STA youth and has in its posses
sion $30,501.07 on which interest to the
amount of $686.27 is due. The county
is entitled to $1,299.43 as it's propor-
ton and hence has a balance of $613.16
due, which it will deduct from the gem
eral taxes when making payment to
the estate.
The question that is being asked
about the state house today is: why
didn't Henry Wallace speak up sooner
and tell on the platform at Corning
what he has told in interviews since?"
There is feeling that he has some
what rubbed the skin off in places in
his interview on the Hepburn certifi-
Gates from the president, but also a
feeling that the best opportunity to
have talked was at Corning.
