OF the Northern league directors at
Minneapolis on Sunday. He is not

extent that most Of the profits are
liable to be eaten up on the road.
However. he thinks that in drawing
up the schedule that arrangements
can probably be- made so that these
places will not receive as many visits
az the other cities or that the leans
would stay longer so as to get away
from making so many trips. MIR. Pull

Jones May NIanagc.

President Puford is already pre-
pairing for next seasons Maroons,
and though he has not signed up a
manager yet. he intends to do SO in
the very lee future. He has many
likely men in view. but. of course. will
first consider Charley Jones before
looking up any other persons record.
Jones is reserved by the club>for next
year. and it seems quite likely that he
will be back here again next spring.
The club receives $500 from Louis
Vile for Johnny Clothier and will
start out next season in pretty fair
shape, and it will be the aim of the
management to get a pennant winner
from the start.

four. and affecting the percentage Of
moisture to be contained by the var
ious grades which are marketed.
Grain men object chiefly to the pro-
posed change in the amount Of moist
ure for No. 3 corn, with which the
producer and the dealer is chiefly con-
cerned.
The governments proposed NO. 3
would reduce this moisture from 15.5
to rs per cent.
The question of whether the en-
forcement Of the new grades is to be
under the pure food law was not dis
cussed. II most grain mel are OPP

Prohibition nomination, and James
M. Reilly on the Socialistic ticket, so
we have five candidates in the field
for that office Necessarily, four
of them will retire to the back
ground right after November's
election.
In the county, Harry K. Kramer
is the Democratic nominee for Free
holder, by plurality of something
like 200 votes, beating Judson L.
Fields and William J. Ledger, all of
this city. William E. Meginnes
polled the entire Republican vote,
and is the candidate on that ticket.
Theodore S. Moore is the Progress
i've candidate.
For Assembly Oliver C. Holcombe
polled APP votes, without opposition,
running 13 behind the high-water
mark on his ticket. Lack of COM
petition failed to get out the full
vote for this office. Edward Silvers
will be the Republican candidate,
and Harry S. Moorhead the Pro-
gressive.
For Coroner James /. Bumster
got the Democratic nomination by
vote of 373 to 166 for Israel H.
Huselton on that ticket.
The vote for mayor fell a little
behind that for Freebooter, in
which most people were interested,
yet the Democrats polled 542 votes,
of which 388 were for Samuel A.
Finger and 154 for Benjamin Beach,
thus nominating Finger. On the
Republican ticket Samuel E. Morse
beat Thomas Lyons by a vote of 1876
to 1870.
The most surprising feature was
the small vote of the Progressives.
Only eleven votes were polled for
the Gubernatorial candidates, but
Moore and Moorhead proved more
popular, individually, than both the
candidates for Governor, and ran
one ahead of the combined vote,
getting twelve each. In this city:
Fielder polled 338 to Katzenbach's
229
Stokes 214 to Carey's Is, Fowler's
7 and Pierce's l.
Osborne polled Z to Colby's 4.
Fields polled 228 to 213 for Led
ger and 100 for Kramer.
Meginnes polled 240, all for him
self.
Moore got IL.
Holcombe got 422. All alone.

velop rapidly enough to take care of

would the construction of the line
have been justified for interchange
of Mexican traffic alone, but the
combination of the two, coupled with
an understanding that all the traffic
for Tampico territory moving in
both directions, and a full share of
other tonnage from Mexico, the line
would have started off as a paying
investment.

eighty to 100 tons to the car, or g.
900 tons to the train. Taking the
cost of transfer into consideration
from the cars to the boats at the
Gulf ports, and the transfer at the
port of destination from the boats
to the cars again for interior points,
such a water level railroad could
give the boats sharp competition on
the rates from the Mississippi Val
ley and territory tributary thereto
to all of the country south of the
Rio Grande; aside from the many
advantages of having cars go direct
from the shipper to the destination
without breaking bulk.

quick transportation from st. Louis

Republics south of us, and am am

of such railroad through it's con-
struction by other interests. There

followed, he did not return until
after the fall of the Diaz admins
tration, which stopped all new con-
struction. That section between
Matamoros and Tampico is to-day
without any further development
than the country south of Corpus
Christi before the advent of the
Brownsville line.

as the ties, rails and other material
as well as to Brownsville.
With the constant reduction in
freight rates and the steady increase
in the cost of supplies and equip
ment, railroad experts have learned
that railroads must haul more ton
mage in their trains and the only
way to do this is by low grades.
With this proposed connection
from Memphis to New Orleans on
the west bank of the Mississippi
River, the low grade line from New
Orleans to Colon would not only
have the longest water grade rail-
road in the world, tapping one Of the
richest undeveloped sections and
giving and taking traffic at what
will be one of the greatest traffic
arteries ever built by man, but more
to the point. the railroad could be
operated at less cost than any other
of even approximately the same
length. ---- ----'- ----------------

There is a vast difference in the
facilities offered by water transpor-
ton. Water transportation are
good rate makers. Rail transporta-
tion are developers. What / mean
is this:
From the time the boat clears
its dock, it engages in no other
business, nor does it produce
pound of new business from the
time it starts until it sticks it's
nose into the port of its destina-
ton. The railroad, on the other
hand, develops some character Of
traffic on every mile it traverses
and furnishes transportation to
it's patrons both locally and
through; therefore, with the
great interest of this nation, and
every other one of the world in
the enterprise which this country
is finishing at an expense of
$500, 100000, not only in the in
terest of water transportation,
but in the interest of the develop
ment of every foot of country
through the seven Republics that
stand between us and our invest
ment in the Panama Canal, it can
afford and should cooperate in
every way consistent with its in
terest, with the different Re-
publics south of the Rio Grande
in the encouragement of this big
railway enterprise which will
have such an important bearing
upon all that section of country.
Estimating the cost of construction
for the "to be built" lines connecting
Brownsville, Tex, with Colon on the
Panama Canal at $4,000 a mile will
make this total cost in the neigh
borhood of S33, 100000 To many
railroad men this will appear low
estimate for the construction of L.
635 miles of railroad track, but it
should be remembered that this will
be water grade line in country
where labor is cheap. Further, that
supplies for the construction camps
can be sent by boat to Colon as we'll

which by many was then being con-
sidered as the most available point
across the Isthmus for the excava-
ton of the canal.
Since this time l have been instru-
mental in building 1000 miles of
railroad toward Panama, and there
now remains only 1900 miles to be
constructed between the Rio Grande
and the Panama Canal to a connec-
ton with the United States Govern
ment's line at that point, as shown

the National Lines of Mexico could
have been carried out, the line would
now be in operation as far south as
Tuxpan, which would have complet-
ed an additional 400 miles of this
gap between the Rio Grande and
the Panama Canal, reducing it to
1,2O0 miles of completion through to
Panama.

which was, in connection with Mex
leo and the other Governments south
of the Rio Grande, to establish be-
tween ST. Louis and the Mississippi
Valley the same water level GRADE
line as by water to Panama, and
railroad capable of carrying train
loads of merchandise equal to the
boats.
A train over this water level line
can carry in either direction from
sixty to seventy cars loaded with
