About 1860 his uncle, P. L. Cable, invested 50,000 with Judge Lynde in a coal mine in Conl valley, twenty miles from Rock Island. Nothing showed up and the judge drow P. L. Cable was about to do so, when Ransom appeared on the scene.

Tho question |Placed in the military asylum at Wash- men of note in other walks of life have .| passed away. To obituary writers this has been an off year. ———— THE NEW ALLIANCE. The most extensive combination that has ever been made between the Amer jcan railroad aystems is about to bo con- summated through the pool that has just boon organized under the name of the Western Trunk Line Association. Great trunk lines have been consolidated and put under one control, and pools have been organized to equalize earnings of competing lines, but never has there been an alliance that included within its network over 26,000 miles of railway. «| Although the compact made by the par- - | ties who have become members of the new pool has not yet made public in its details, enough has been learned to war- rant the conclusion that this is to be an offensive and defensive alliance, which, for at least six years, proposes to control and divide among its members the bulk of the railroad traflic west of Chicago. Overriding state lines and in defiance of all charter obligations and the prohi- bitions imposed by state constitutions against pooling, this gigantic confedera- tion proposes to destroy all competition and levy aebitrary and oppressive taxes upon the people whoare tributary to its lines. It will be within the power of half a dozen men in this new alliance to lower tho price of every bushel of grain raised in the Mississippi and Missouri valleys, and it is equally within their power to raise the price of all com- modities which the west is obliged toim- port from the east. They do not only control the main roads and branch lines within the vast area, but their peculiar relation to the linos east of Chicago make them virtually arbitrators of most of the traffic between New York and the west. As o natural sequence the Vanderbilt and Gould systems east of Chicago and south of St. Louis will ao-operate and exchange business with the railroad syn- dicate in the mew pool. There is no doubt that Vanderbilt and Gould have been largely instrumental in organizing this alliance to fortify themselves against all rival combinations. The Chicago, Burlington & Quincy is the only compet- ing trunk line that has not joined the new alliance. Whether that corporation will pick up the gauntlet and defiantly stand its ground against the tremendous force that can be exerted by the new pool is problematic. The Burlington is the only rival of the Union Pacific, and its local traffic in Nebraska is at least five times that of the Union Pacific. To surrender that traffic and throw it into the pool would be a sacrifice for which one-eighth of the through traffic would be no adequate compensation. Unless the difference is made up by an equivalent from another source it would almost be suicidal for that road to aban- don its independence. There need not necessarily be a rate war if it does stay out of the pool. The Burlington can waintain rates established by the pool without dividing its earnings with it, and if the pool should cut rates the Burling- toh can doubtless sfford to meet it on equal terms even tKough the 10ss in such o fight should be borne proportionately Wells, Miller and Yost. If this part of the subsidy to the organs is to be with- drawn we ought to know the reason why. Dr. Miller may have to cut short his Buropean travels and the new Re- publican building may have to bo cut down a story or two. ———— Tk Omaha bolt line was not taken in the new pool.

WEST OF THE MISSOURI. east, the farmers of the older states. been carried on systomatically for years, and west to San Francisco. expense is large and water rights costly, tho crops are more certain and the quan- tity greater. The largest and wealthiest irrigating company yet organized in the west was recently incorporated in Cclorado, It is called the Rio Grande and Sagauche company, composed of home and foreign capitalists, headed by a *‘real live lord” of England. The company propose to irrigate, 300,000 acres of the San Luis valley by a system of canals. Contracts have already been let for the removal of two and a half millionf yards of earth, and 200 teams have been shipped from different points to the valley. In connec- tion with this extensive scheme it is pro- posed to encourage the immigration of Swedish colonists—a class of frugal, in- dustrious, thrifty farmers, who will build up that most powerful element of society —a well-to-do population of thriving farmers. Arrangements are already being made ta establish schools and churches for them, and the Denver & Rio Grande rajlroad is offering great inducements for the encouragement of immigration, The press of Wyoming have from time o time given much prominence to the ail fields of the territory. Several Omaha ¢apitalists are interested in that region, among them being Samuel E. Rogers and Dr. Geo. B. Graf. The late ‘‘Professor” Aughey is also there experimenting on the depth and wealth of the new fields. The Wyoming Petroleum company has been organized, of which Mr. Rogers is president. Last week the company paid 83,000 at the United States land office for 1,440 acres of land, lying 76 miles north of Point'of Rocks, which is in addi- :lion to quite a large tract already owned here, been interviewed by reporters as to their plans, They were reticont as to actunl pendence against all odds, so long as Commissioner Vining will not care a Tur: principal business of the hour is Irrigation is as necessary to the arid regions of the west as fertilizing to the Millions of acres of land in Colo- rado, Wyoming and Montana only need moisture to yield crops of grain and veg- otables in such abundance as to astonish In the Salt Lako valley, where irrigation has the fruit and vegetable crop find a rich and ready market as far cast as Chicago In most of the valleys of Montana irrigation is a matter of necessity, and although the countries lack—fuel and lumber—the Hills can supply in unlimited quantities and at prices much less than these arti- cles now cost. Besides, it would open up new avenues of trade and settle up the intervening country, most of it as good land as was_ever tilled, Settlers are already crowding up to the reserva tion lines in both Nebraska and Dakota, and this fact alone will force it from In- dian control at an early day. Yankton has just completed a system of water works which are probably the most complete ever constructed for the money—813,000. They are owned by the city, and a recent public test gave the groatest satisfaction to all classes, This system of water works depends for its supply upon the artesian well on the west bluff, whichis the property of the city. Adjoining the well has been built a resorvior twenty feet high above the crown of the bluff and thirty feet in dia- mer, It contains 3,000 barrels of water. Leading from this reservior are two miles of mains. With the hose on hand and to be procured this systam will furnish protection to the larger portion of the city. The reservoir stands 120 feet above Capitol street and one hundred feet above Broadway, giving a pressure which will throw streams of water from the ground to the top of any buiiding within reach of the hose. The works were constructed by Fairbanks, Morse & Co., of Chicago, at a cost of only §183,000, includinf ‘mains, reservoir, pump and a thousand feet of hose. This is but little more than the cost of a de- cently equipped steam fire dopartment and the expense of maintaining it is com- paratively nothing. The water is always ready for useand the supply in the res- ervoir is sufficient at all times to extin- guish any fire with which a city of its size would be afliicted. Montana has produced a genius in the cattlo figuring business, who shows re- sults as paralyzing as Wyoming or Colo- rado. Geo. R. Tingle, one of the many successful stock growers of the territory, and an authority on matters pertaining to the industry in which he has been suc- cessfully engaged for years, has prepared an exhaustive table of increase, etc., of a herd of 600 cows and 30 bulls will show in ten years. From the table and figures given the following deductions are made: Amount of stock to start, 630, including 30 bulls, Total at end of ten years, 10,789, less 1,996 beeves sold and the b per cent loss, amounting to 1,651, a total of 3,647, leaving on hand 7,302 head of stock, the increase of bulls mak- ing their total 160. The average in- come for the ten years would be 813,613, and the average yearly expenses 3,600, leaving a net yearly income of about $10,000, and showing a net per centage of gain on the original investment of $20,000 of 50 per cent, per year. The sales of stock during the last seven years would amount to $136,030, and the total money realized and value of stock on hand footsup $392,160; from this is to be subtracted the cost of the plant (819,615) and the expenses for the ten years (339,- 010), given at $58,625, leavinga total net gain of $333,535, To this may be added the horses aud other personal propert accumulated in ten years. Of course all the above deductions are made upon the supposition that the ranchman is unvisit- ed during the decade by any general calamity, such as disease or loss by flood or storm. e —— Nervousness, Nervous Debility, Neuralgia® Nervous Shock, St. Vitus Dance, Prostration, and all diseases’ of Nerve, Generative Organs, Prosident Rflfl:fl and Dr, Graff have]and all frerm-nenfly and’ radically cored by Allen's Brain Food, the great botanical rem. edy. $1pkg., 6 for 85.—At druggists.

In this view of the ¢ase there may still be ono ohock to the arrogance and tyranny which the new alliance is liable to exercise; but we confess that we have very little faith in railway competition. Experionce has demonstrated time and again that competition is always followed by combination, and in the end the rail- road is pound to be a monopoly, the West Indies. It was claimed that a mutiny was discovered on board the ves- #ol, although no overt act had been com- mitted, and upon the testimony of an informer, a young midshipman named Spencer was convicted of being a ring leader by a court on boal the vessel. Captain MacKenzie ordered him to be hung from the yard arm of the vessel at sunrise next morning, and the order was carried out. Spencer, who was a mere youth, was the son of the Tue death of General Humphreys re- moves another of the gallant soldiers who distinguished themselves during the late wor. He was not only a brave soldier in every senso of the word, but also one of the most eminent engineers in the United States. His career in the army covers a period of over forty years active service. A native of Pennsylvania, he graduated from the military academy at West Point in 1831, and was assigned to the Second artillery, In 1838 he en- tered the topographical engineer corps, and was promoted to a captaincy in that corps during the Mexican war. At the outbreak of the civil war he was major in then secretary of wer. The tragedy created the greatest sensation of the times in the United States. Captain MacKenzie, upon hia return to this coun- try, was arrosted and tried by court mar- tial, but as the captain had not over- stepped the law, he was acquitted. His cruel act, however, was universally condemned. It was argued that, as the mutiny, if there was any, had been sub- dued, there was no good reason why Spencer, if guilty of any crime, should not have been kept as a prisoner until the ship returned to the United States. Captain MacKenzie never got another intentions, but stated that they should urely commence operations in the spring. They stated that they had fifty barrels of oil flowing daily now. If any railroad will budd fo° the proposed location of their wells they will guarantee it 8,000 barrels a day. They claim they have the best oil in America and the most of it, and feel confident they can produce 100,- 000 barrels a month and ‘‘not half try.” Mr, Rogers is enthusiastic and thinks tha greatest possibilities are in store for the future, ‘Doctors in Prussia.
