LANCASTER MAY GET
DEPOT IMPROVEMENTS
c. &. N. w. Ry. Makes Quasi
Promise to Do Something.
Just What it Will Be is Not Now Stated
May Be New Depot, Engine
House and More Track.

Lancaster is one of the best. towns
and most extensive shipping points Oh
the Madison branch of the Northwest
ern road For years its citizens he
sought the railroad company for a
new depot in keeping with its i'm
portance and that would provide suit
able accommodations for the travelling
public which patronizes the road at
this place. We also need additional
side trackage to accommodate the
heavy stock shipments and the re-
moval of the old engine house to q
point where it will not prove an an
noyance.
A petition has recently been circu
lated and very generally signed i'm
Lancaster, asking that these things be-
done. That the company appears to
look favorab1y upon some of these i'm
portant and much needed changes is
indicated by the following letter re-
ceived during the past week by Geo..
B. Clementson. Let us hope il may
mean all or more than it implies:
Dear Sir: This will acknowledge
receipt of your favor Of the 11th
numerously signed by the business in
terets of Lancaster, regarding certain
improvements that have been discussed
at that point This matter will re-
ceive our earnest consideration and
we hope to be in position shortly to-
advise you definitely our plans for the
coming season at your city, Consider
able opposition developed to the plans
as originally prepared by us and this
has been the principal reason why
no move has been made towards
changing the location of the engine
house and increasing the number OF
yard tracks We will advise you
further in regard to the matter.
Yours truly.

CITY WILL OBSERVE
LINCOLN CENTENARY
Schools Will Take Prominent
Part in Exercises.
Committee of Arrangements Has Been
Selected and is Preparing Pro-
gram for the Occasion.

Last Friday evening was the date
of a public meeting called by Mayor
Bennett. as announced in the Herald
last week, for conference relative to
an observance of the Tooth anniversary
of the birth of Abraham Lincoln, on
February 10, and for the selection of
committees to make arrangements for
the celebration.
The night was stormy and the at
tendance light, but the purposes of
the meeting were carried out by those
who braved the storm and were
present at the NEE ting.
It was decided to appoint a COM
mittee which should include one
representative of the a. A. R., one
from the schools. one from the city
at large, one from the ". R. c., one
from the Woman's Club and one from
the Mckinley Circle. The following
we're chosen in the order named above .
@. A. re. Fl. Baxter.
Schools-C. E. SIothower
City Mayor j. I. Bennett.
W. r. C.-Mrs. Theo Calvin.
Woman 8 Club-Mrs. A. g. Knapp.
Mckinley Circle-Mrs. R. B. Sho-
walter.
R.. A. Draper was also selected to
make arrangements for and to have
charge of the nusical program. 1t is
probable that the committee may
have meeting this evening.
When the subject of proper
observance of the Lincoln centenary
first came up for consideration the
members of the @. A. r. decided to
take up the work and to ask for the
cooperation OF the general public.
About this time it was learned that
the schools had also decided to observe
the occasion and were preparing a
program.
It is now the purpose to incorporate
these exercises in the general program,
which will be announced later. Lam
caster possesses sufficient talent,
musical and literary, to make this
fitting celebration of the centen
airy of our martyred president,
the great emancipation.

NO INVESTIGATION
OF PRIMARY ELECTION
Stephenson Will be Reelected
Without Opposition.
No Evidence Produced That Seemed to
Warrant Proposed Action-De-
cision Nearly Unanimous.

Madison. Wis, Jan. 14.-The
Democratic move to make capital out
of an investigation of the senatorial
primary is deaoer than smelt.
Smiles swept over the faces of the
Republican senators this afternoon
when Senator Husting made his pro-
test against the adoption of joint
resolution which effectually closed
the door to the consideration Of his
resolution for an investigation and
the next moment the resolution was
carried with only Senator Husting
dissenting.
The Legislature will met Jan. 26 at
10 a. IN. to resume it's full functions
and at noon the two houses will vote
for United States senator in accord
ance with the law. Next week no
action will be taken in either house
other than the introduction of bills
and their reference to the revision
committees which Will prepare them
for the printer.
Isaac Stephenson will be elected
United SITS ties senator without objec
tion. That is assured by the action
of the members of the dominant party
in the senate and assembly today.
The resolutions for an investiga-
tion presented in the senate and as
sembly today present charges which
would be thrown out of any court in
the land, said Senator Tom Morris
of Lacrosse. who has been recognized
as one OF the leaders Of the opposition
Senator Stephenson in the Republican
ranks.
The Republican party in Wisconsin
is not afraid to investigate any Office
or any man when specific charges are
made upon which action may be
based, but hearsay evidence is
absolutely worthless, and that is all
the Democrats have advanced.
''If anybody has evidence of bribery
and corruption let him produce it.
I would amend the resolution, if it
were acted upon. to say, while we
have no desire to cast discredit upon
the Office of United States senator, or
upon any candidate, and while we. do
not favor action on promiscuous
charges as advanced, if specific
charges are produced, backed by
creditable evidence in sufficient
volume to warrant it, we would
favcr an investigation.
Frankly, I am not in favor of
Isaac Stephenson for United States
senator nor have I ever been, but he
has been nominated by the people
under a system which the Republican
members of the Legislature form ulat-
ed. which we ourselves instituted. and
feel we should abide by the result.
am prepared to take my med icine. F"

Minor S. TrOwbridge Dead.

Minor S. Trowbridge was born Jan,
81, 1882, at Tully. New York, and
died at the home of his daughter
Mrs. Jay Rewey. at Platteville, jan
IA, at the age of n years.
In the fall of 1854 he was married
to E. E. Carpenter and came west
locating on a farm near Darlington
Here be farmed and taught school,
In 1869 he moved to PlattevilIe to-
give his children an education. In
1879 he again moved to Darlington for
year. From there to Lancaster
which was his home till last winter
His wife died April 1, 1884. Later
he married Irene Alling who preceded
him to the better land by hardly 3
year.
He had four daughters and one SON
who all survive him: Mrs. Phebe
Black, Long Beach, Cal. Mrs. Jay
Rewey, PlattevilIe; Will s. Trow-
bridge, Lordbsurg, Cal. Mrs. Fred
Miles, Fennimore, Wis. I; Mrs. Dana
Curtis, Long Beach, Cal.
He had been aiI1ng for over year
and he never really survived the
shock of his wife's death.
The funeral services were held aE
his daughter g home at Platteville, by
Rev. Bauchop of the M. E. church.
The body was laid in the Darlington
cemetery by the side of his first wife.

estimate by 8 per cent additional. In
other words, it is probable that these
thirteen concerns directly or indirect
ly conrol developed water power and
advantageous power sites equal to
more than SO per cent Of the total
water power now in use.
This astonishing consolidation has
taken place practically within the
last five years. The movement is
still in its infancy, and unless it is
controlled the history of the oil
industry will DE repeated in the
hydro electric power industry, with
results far more oppressive and
disastrous for the people 1t is
true that the great bulk of our
potential water power is as yet un
developed. but the sites which are
now controlled by combinations are
those which offer the greatest ad-
vantages and therefore hold strategic
position. This is certain to be
strengthened by the increasing de-
mand for power and the extension of
long distance electrical transmission.
1t is, in my opinion, relatively I'M.
important for as to know whether or
not the promoters of this particular
project are affiliated with any Of
these great corporations. If we
make an unconditional grant to this
grantee, our control over it, ceases.
He. or any purchaser from him, will
be free to sell his rights to any one of
them at pleasure! The time to at
tach conditions and prevent monopo-
ly is when a grant is made.

action, as shown by the official minutes:

ducive to the best interests of the vii
