That second ward fight will be the Hyeliest thing you ever seen in ward politics. said republican to-day. re
 ferring to the impending battle be- tween the Larkin and Carter forces "I don't know Larkin." he continued, but I'm well acquainted with Carter and want to see him win out. but I'm told he won't be in it. This is the way nearly everybody who talks on this question puts it. A big battle is looked for, but somehow it appears to be foregone conclusion that Carter will get licked These conclusions may be all right. but it should be re- membered that there are more behind Carter than some think. He is a mem- Der of the clock shop committee. so is Mir Larkin, and while the committee is said to favor Larkin 1t Is hinted tha'. they are divided and that some of them are working cOvertly for the overthrow of the commissioner of the department of education. They feel that Captain Carter hasn't been used right by the party and want to see him elected to the aldermen and given place on the board of public safety. One of Mr Carter's friends told a reporter to-day that if John Kellogg knows what's good for himself he will keep out of this snarl and let the electors of the district have it out among themselves. He knew. he said. that the machine wants to see Larkin elected and that q great effort will be made to land him. but if Kellogg's hand is seen in if there will be rupture in the part> that will he carried to the polls on elec- tion day and kept up until the ma chine operators are punished.

BIG CAR ORDERS

Record Breaking Demand for Railroad
Equipment In 1so5-capacity Of the
Factories Assured for the Year 1906,
Says Railway Age.
Chicago Oct. 2o.-Under the cap
ton, Record breaking Orders for
Railway Equipment" the Railway Age
tomorrow will say: Contracts re-
ported this week show that the high
records OF 1901 and 1902 for freight
equipment and locomotives win easily
be surpassed before the close Of 1905,
although the volume of orders in those
years was exceptional, and notwith-
standing high prices and the difficulty
in securing prompt delivery, orders
were placed by the Pennsylvania this
week for 81 1,60O cars, in addition to
16 100 ordered in August, made a new
high record in contracts placed by the
single company and practically pre-
empts all steel car building facilities
during the year 1906. It is stated all
car manufa cturers are crowded with
orders; that one company alone has
filled contracts aggregating over sixty
thousand cars, while no company can
promise delivery before the middle of
next year, unless the order is for a few
wooden cars Orders for freight cars
for the first forty-one weeks OF the
current year are in excess Of any pre-
vious year, while the contracts for
passenger cars and locomotives, II con-
tinued at their present rate, will also
exceed any previous record.

as though nothing had ever happenei
and 1t will be for the courts to decide
what the legal population Of Atlantic
really is On the hearing Of the appli-
cation for an injunction. The execu-
tive council and the state will have lit
tie to do with the matter as matter
of fact 1t will be fought out between
the temperance forces and saloon inter-
ests in Atlantic. the temperance people
being desirous of getting the population
fixed at less than 5000, so as to drive
out the saloons.
State Superintendent Riggs has re-
ceived information that the people OF
Grant township in Union county are
getting ready to consolidate some OF
their rural schools. They have had one
meeting and the first informal vote on
the proposition was 36 for consolidation
and opposed This is one of the first
townships to take UP consolidation
for some time, The matter of consol1-
dation of schools will likely be given
some attention in the coming report OF
the superintendent to the governor.
Other superintendents have taken the
matter up and recommended better
laws SO as to better facilitate the mat
ter of consolidating districts. One Of
the defects is that parts Of two town
ships can not unite. The matter OF
consolidation it is claimed is largely
a matter of the typography Of the
country, hence it is not always possible
to carve a consolidated district out Of
one township. Furthermore 1t is more
often that less than township makes
a better consolidated district. 1t is
Prof. Riggs idea that one township is
usually too large for one district as the
children have to be hauled too far and
too much time is lost on the road. The
law is not drafted. however. to facili-
tate the smaller districts.
