Rail Road Extension.

l.. H. Jewett, who returned the
frs! of the week from Dunning,
says the b. & M. surveyors are
still at work running lines for
the connection of their Sargent
branch with the main line.
They have run surveys both
above and below Dunning.
Should the lower survey be
adopted the connection will be
made just below the present de-
pot on the main line but should
the upper survey be found more
practical it will require the NOV
ing the town two miles further
west. Following is what the St.
Paul Republican says:
CHANGE ON UNION PACIFIC.
Information from railroad
headquarters is that the train
men on the Loup City and Pleas
anton branches will soon be
transferred to st. Paul, a round
house being built at this point
for the accommodation of their
equipment. According to this a
gasoline moter will be installed
for the passenger service, the
present crew making only one
round trip each day with freight
train. While we do not guaran-
tee the accuracy of this informa-
ton, it seems to be authentic.
If true it will mean the addition
of several new families to the
population of St. Paul.
"This confirms a rumor which
has been in general circulation
for some time to the effect thai
the Union Pacific has sold it
track between Boelus and LouI
City to the Burlington. Accord
ing to this story, the Burlington
intends building from Cairo t,
Boelus and then proceeding b,
way of Loup City to Sargent vi
the Middle Loup river to Dun
ming, thus avoiding some YER
heavy grades on its Billing
line"

City Election.

A more quiet election has
never been held in the city than
was experienced here Tuesday.
In fact large percent forgot it
was election day and as there
was no one making any special
campaign, no effort was made to
get the vote out. The result is
that only about so per cent of the
city votes was polled,
The only question on which
there was more than one candid
ate was for members of the
school board. The school eau
Gus nominated nine candidates
where but two could be elected
and left the matter to the choice
OF the voters. The result was

Confederation seemed likely to be a. futile
as they had always been since The year
1915.
The accession Of tho King and bis sturdy
helper TO power speedily changed tho stu-
alton. .The political problems were grap-
pied with one BY one, and were trenchantly
solved. Union was won by Bismarck's
diplomacy and Prussias sword; and when
the longed for goal was reached in seven
fateful years, the same qualities were
brought to bear on the difficult task Of
consolidating that union Those qualities
our author finds In sthe courage and hon.
esty OF purpose that the House Of Hohen-
zollern has generally displayed since tbs
days Of the Great Elector; added to which
were rarer gifts-the width Of view. the
eagle foresight, tho strength Of will. the
skill In the choice Of means that made
OF Bisnarok an imposing personality. It
was with an eye to him and to the astonish-
ing triumph wrought by his diplomacy
over France that a diplomatist thus summed
up the results of the year 1870: Europe
has lost mistress, but she has got mas
ter"
1t is true that the new German Empire
has failed in it's effort to cure the industrial
classes OF their socialistic ideas. It is also
true that 1t has not added to the culture
and tho inner happiness Of the German
people. The days OF quiet culture and con-
tentment have gone, and in their place has
come q straining after ambitious aims
which is likely to prove heavy drag on
the vitality of the Teutonic race. Never
theless, our author recognizes that, for
good or for evil. the unification Of Germany
must stand out as the greatest event in tho
history Of the nineteenth century.

In the chapter on -The Theatre of Opera
tiorsr the author points out that an invasion
OF the British islands, or of any transmarine
possession Of Great Britain save Canada,
was rendered impracticable for the United
States by the immeasurable inferiority of
our navy. To cross the sea in force was
impossible. For this reason land operations
had to be restricted to the North American
continent. This fact, conjoined with a
strong traditional desire, transmitted from
the old French wars and cherished in the
War Of Independence, to incorporate the
Canadian colonies with the Union, deter
mined the aggressive policy Of the United
States on the northern frontier. This was
the only distinctly offensive operation
available to us upon the land, Q onsequently
it was imposed by reasons of political and
military eIpediency. As is we'll known,
our attempts to invade Canada had for us
disastrous results, and only our naval vic
tories on the Lakes saved us from being in
vaded in our turn.
As it turned out, Great Britain was not
vulnerable in Canada, but she was vulnera-

though under certain obvious limitations;

the hands of the very great num )er
OF British cruisers on the high seas,
where British CO.. merce came and went
together with the necessity of avoiding
most of the ports whence hostile ships
might issue to prey upon our isolated ves-
sells. What now principally trammels the

With regard to the causes of the Franco
German war--a chapter is devoted to them
the author is disposed to accept the con-
clusion reached by Benedett, who was an
eyewitness OF its beginning, its course
and it's end. that "t was public opinion
which forced the French Government to
draw the sword, and. by an irresistible
onset, dictated its resolution This our
author believes to have been unquestion-
ably true for the public opinion of Paris,
though not OF France as whole. The
rural districts, which form the real strength
Of France, nearly always cling to peace.
The significant fact is recalled that ths
prefeots Of French Departments reported
that only sixteen declared in favor OF war,
while thirty-seven were in doubt on the
matter and thlrty-four accepted war with
regret This. Mr.. Rose thinks, is what
might have been expected from people
which in the provinces is marked by prn-
dence and thrift. The truth is that, 40
far as agricultura, districts are concerned,
all the people Of modern Europe have settled
down to life OF peaceful industry. In which
