THE MINNESOTA AND NOBTHKHS. The Railroad Meeting at One man. who opposed voting the bonds, had figured his share of the tax at for years, or I a year. He was asked if the road would increase the value of his farm itoft the first year. He bought it would, and Anally ed he could clear f'O by voting for the bonds.

Al. said this road had been ta ked of as a tVorthiuglnn road, but Worthington was named because it was the nearest point to the State line. The object of the road is to hold this gap, and ttie road when completed wilt nect with the Manitoba and the Canadian cific systems of tiie North.ami with the Gulf on the south, reaching all the southwest systemsOr, singular as it may sound, it is part of a north and south road, projected from ocean to ocean. The ultimate northern terminus is at Churchill on Million's Bay and the Southern minus at Sabine Pass on the Gulf of Mexico. This is the only feasible route for a trans-contiuental road.

This matter has been before the Kansas City people for some time, and it isa fact that several million dollars have been secured ami Too miles (rom Sabine Pass to Kansas City is praci ically under way. Ours is the only feast' hie route for this projected north and south road' ai.d a citizen of Worthington once declared that, we could put a plow in at Kansas City and run a furrow to Winnepec over this route. Our ject is to build andnold this gap. The editor of the Twr.h Old established Paper. Offlolal Paper of the County.

A brief allusion was made In last week's asck Ad to a railroad meeting held at Fulda on Tuesday evening in the interest of bonding Bondln township to the amount in aid of the Minnesota rNorthern Railway. In com pan with Hon. J. P. Moulton and Judge Wil son wo attended this meeting, and notwith standing the rain and the almost impassable coudition of the roads In we found that Currie had sent a strong lelegat1on composed of Mr.

Currie, Editor Maxwell, Mr. Wuecke and lteverend J. 11. Long. Fulda and vicinity turned out in the rain and filled Masonic Hall.

J. M. Dickson was called to the chair and Eddltor A'oolstencroft was chosen secretary of the meeting. J. Long, Secretary of the company, read the proposition to the voters of Bondln township and dwelt upon the points as he proceeded.

He cited the examples of Fergus Falls and Fargo, the former having the w.iter power and the natural advent iges. while the latter had the enegetic pushing men. The result is that Fargo is a large city compared with the other. The Minnesota Northern project is primarily to secure a Duluth connection on the North, and a connection with the Iowa coal fleldt on thu South. It to be a People's line, built by men who do not own the coal mines, and is to be a c-ial and lumber line.

The plan is to ask aid from the towns, giving of stock in return. No town can vote more than cant iudu its inileott'dness already a. crueil. The bomls are to run years and may all be taken up after ten years, or one at a lime. They do imx draw interest until the road is built The line from Worthingt through Fulda and Avoca to Currie.

a distance or some miles must lie completed before the bonds are earned, and it must In? completed by Oct. l. lsyo. II the roa is not to Fulda by Oct. I.l8s:t, the bonds are to he invalid, and if not finished Currie by Oct.

1, lsyo, the bondi will he invalid In short, the bonds will be invalid if delivered to the coniptny before the cars are ruoniug from Worthington to Currie. This is, therefore, a C. 0.1. road. Advanck was next called out and was referred to as one who had built more roads on paper than any one in this seetion.

He "ackowledged the corn as his ness was to build roads on paper, and told what he knew of the effect of some roads. Cleveland, Ohio, was a city of Inhabitants when she awoke one morning to find her commerce nad moved westward. She then saw that she must have a coal road and manufactures. Her ness men united and agreed to give the ground for manufacturing establishments, her banks agreed to lend money at a less rate to turers. and all joined to build a coal railroad.

Gov. Todd declared that the day before the road was finished he did not know bat he was a gar. The day after, he saw that he was a rich man. Cleveland is a city of to irrfMjOo habitants, started on her boom by a coal road. Columbus.

Ohio. Is another example of one of the finest manufacturing cities in the country, made so by the Hocking Valley coal road. Willlamsport and Muncy, are exam, tiles of how railroads nvike or unmake towns. Muiiey had the natural advantages and the rich and respectable men, and believed that railroads must come to her. Willlamsport had none of but went to work and secured the roads.

few years ago Muncy had 2,000 to 3,000 population and Wiill imsport 30,000. Mr. Moulton had referred to this line as a rap to be held by a north and south road. This grand project, we believe, was first suggested by a former Worthington man (T. J.

Simpson, of the Okibena Mills). It is not a mere scheme, but Is under way now at the lower or Gulf end. And we happen to lay in the path of the only route Itean take, for eastward It would strike the reat Lakes and westward. the bad lands. From Kansas City It Is proposed to run 25 to 60 miles east of the river, across Iowa, through a try unoccupied by a north and south road, and In its course will cross every east and west road on the continent.

Complaint had been made at Worthington since bonds had been voted to the Burlington road and the company had not done as agreed by failing to bulla a depot and to extend north westward. But the mends of the road claim that more monev was made in two years by the Increased price of flax at that market and the lower rates on co.il than was voted in bonds. Judge Wilson was next called out. and dwelt upon the increase In the value of property since the Burllneton was built, especially of the lands In the vicinity of the place. And town property ha I also advanced considerably.

One piece for which he paid file could not be bought for less than As showing how roads are built, he cited the fact that the Burlington road via of Sibley and Pipestone, was first a local road, projected der the name of the Spirit Lake western. It was projected and worked up purely by local men. The Burlington, finding it a desirable route, got possession of It. and it cost the peo- more after the Burlington got the route, than would if they had built It themselves. Being very hoarse, the Judge said he was not in tion to speak at length.

Elder was then called on and said he liad been in the mercantile business once, and that after a competing line of railroad was built fifteen miles from there, they could haul their goods by team the 15 miles and then save Freight by It. They soon had roads on all sides uf tnem, and found they were getting 10c more A bushel for their wheat. They found also again of tec to 20c on every 100 lbs. of pork they soldHe thought that In thirty years the road would give back a million dollars for theij.ooo aid ed. Nell Carrie was next called on.

and said that this was not a Currie, nor a Fulda, nor a thington project merely, bat was a road for the whole country. He had had goods delivered for some years at less rates than Fulda merchants liecause he reached competing 11 nes on the north. Mr. Moulton spoke again as to the increase in value of real estate since bonds were voted to the Burlington road, and told how it was ed by a few men pledging idu.oi'o iu advance. Attorney Borst, of Fulda.

was then called on, and stated that in visiting points away from ulda he found an Impression among the people that Fuldt had declined one third in population since the division was removed. If the new road was I'lilit, why would it have the opp wite effect? There will he a north and south road bulit through this country, and if other towns get it, it will be the end of Fulda's He referred to the Wilmar Sioux tails as il Pipestone One lustratlng what -uld be done. man. without money to put into It, had talked It and worked it until it took practical shape, and the other day lie was ai Pipestone. the graders were crossing the Milwaukee track.

Editor Maxwell, of Currie. was next called on. and facetiously remarked that It was not just the thiug to call out the pop gun after firing off the camion, lie had heard that God hetps those who help themselves, and if Murray county is to be developed, the people must help themselves. Editor of Ful la, the Surveyor of the line, was next cat led on to as to the route. He said I was practically level, was one of the best and had nothing objectionable.

Tie cited the experience of Austin, which ttisi ed to bonus the Mt'waukee. and allowed it to pass north of the place. Recently the people paid to Induce the road to build a stub in to their town. THE RAILROAD MEETING AT FULDA. Fulda At a meeting held In Fulda last night for the purpose of considering the subject of voting bonds in aid of the construction of the ta Northern Kaiwav, J.

M. Dickson was chos en chairman and B. Woolsiencroft. Sec. ftev.

J. H. Long, secretary of the railway, read the proposition of his company, and made some pertineut remarks regarding the same. Hon. J.

P. Moulton then asked if there were any present opposed to the measure, and if so. for them to give the grounds for their opposition. It was known that one or two present were not friendly to the bonds, but they refused to eome forward, and Mr. Moulton continued his marks.

showing the advisability of keeping tip with the times that unless we assist by putting our own shoulder to the wheel, there is little hope that our country will be developed by side iutiucnce. Hon. A. P. Miller was the next speaker, and he gave a number of illustrations wherein the want of proper energy had been the means of most depopulating whole a small amount of money and brains, used at the proper time, had built up immense business terests.

Judge Wilson informed the meeting that the people of Nobles county were alive to the interests of a north and south railroad. He was followed by Kev. A. Davis, who gave some ex-imples of the advantages of railroad compe tit Ion. Mr.

Wilson Borst was then called for and gave the people of Fulda some wholesome advice, winning up with the assertion that he was will ing to give one-third of his property toward the enterprise. Several other speakers responded to calls from the house in a few remarks, when the meeting adjourned. THE MEETING AT TRACY. A despatch yesterday from Tracy says that a large and enthusiastic ing was held on Tuesday to discuss the question of voting bonds for a north and south railroad to run through Worthington, Fulda, A voca and Currie, the county seat o. Murray county, through this place.

Much terest was manifested and a vote for bonds of $7,500 from Currie and $10,000 t'rom Tracy were the issue of the ing. Currie and other towns ed were well represented and a large number of Murray and Lyon county farmers were in attendance. The tion is beiug agitated in an tic manner and the present outlook is good for a road." THE SIOUX CITY NORTHERN. A despatch yesterday from Sioux City says that articles of incorporation have been tiled by the company which is to have control of the town sites along the line of the Sioux City Northern. The incorporators are all officials of the Manitoba.

So this is to be a Jim Hill road after all. DEMOCRATIC OP IN IUS AT MANKATO. The St. Paul Globe gave a pretty lull resume of Democratic opiulon iu this district as ed at Maukato during the recent convention. Hon.

Daniel Buck is reported as saying: It has been stated that at the caucuses here Saturday eveniug the coutest lor delegate to the was between Hon. Johu F. Meagher and myself. There is not a word of truth in it. 1 was not a candidate for delegate to any convention.

Our term of court mences to-morrow and I could not go as a gate to the State con vein ion even it 1 wished to do so. That there is a revolution agalust going on here was pretty clearly strated iit the caucuses Saturday evening, when all of the leaders of that obnoxious system only saved eight of twenty eight delegates by sonal appeals and the hardest kind of work at the noils. Personal quarrels should be banished from our ranks.aud then with good candidates we can win a Democratic victory iu the coining campaign. Another thing that 1 desire to call atteution to is the discouraging effect that the 'mention of the name of Morton S. Wilkinson as an opponent to Uepresentative Liud has upon Democrats.

Why not pick up some good man like Tom Bowen. of Sleepy Eye, and not be casting arouud among mugwumps for our candidates? We have had no luck with them, and 1 will cite thecase of Horace Greeley as a terrible ple. But we, the true and tried workers of the Democratic party, are to be cast aside In the in terest of some man who can be controlled by a clique of politicians regardless of the wishes of the people. Hon. John F.

Meagher said: Here In the second district, although it Is a good deal like leading a forlorn hope, ex-Sena atsr Morton S. Wilkinson is to be pitted agalnAt Representative Liud, and we calculate very strongly at least upon a decided reduction of the majority by which Mr. Lind was sent to Congress as a representative. To be sure, he Is a young man and very popular with the gians, out his tariff views are diametrically op posed to those of his constituents, and he will have a feenian worthy of his steel when Mr. Wilkinson takes the stump against hiin.

One of the stronsest points that the latter posesses is that he is a powerful stump speaker, and when he brings out the speech of Knute Nelson to round off lib efforts, Mr. Lind or any one that supports him Is going to have a hard time to controvert such an argument. Among the thinking people of Minnesota the sentiment is growing that this is a free trade state, and the only real question at Issue between the two ties is that of protection or free trade. romiug back to matters in the second district, to be sure Mr. Wilkinson Is only a prospective candidate, for the nominating eonvention will not meet until the day before the tion assembles to enoose State officers, and that date has not yet been decided upon by the State central committee.

It was deemed advisable to wait until the National convention at St. Louis had transacted Its business before we were ed together on local matters, but in the mean while everything possible will be done to secure the much desired result of making Minnesota safe in the Democratic column. A WOMAN'S DISCOVERY. "Another wonderful discovery has been made and that too by a lady in this county. Disease fastened its clutches upon her and for seven years she withstood its severest tests, but her vital organs were undermined and death seemed imminent.

For three months she coughed incessantly and could not sleep. She bought of us a bottle of Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption and was so much ed on taking the first dose that she slept all night and with one bottle has been miraculously cured. Her name is Mrs. Lucy Litz Thus write W.

Harock of Shelby. N. C. Get a free trial bottle at Smith's Drug Store. 2 We are informed that anew paper is to be started soon at Luverne.

The new publisher, we hear, is a man named D. W. Bdth, who has the means to put in a first-class outfit and to make a first-class country paper. This will be good news to the people of Juverne and an occasion for general ing, as the leading citizens of that place have made affidavit that the editor of the Herald isa criminal, and they have no confidence in him. They have nounced him as a bribe-taker, a fraud and guilty of a "revolting crime" sides, and as a man unfit to publish the leading paper in a community like Luverne.

We wish the new" paper success and we hope to see at least fair play from Luverne. COUNTY NEWS. RAJfSOM. J. E.

We were not in the Convention, but we are informed by those who know, that our criminal neighbor had worked it up beforehand with Frank Day, of the Fairmont Sentinel, and one or two other editors that when the district convention assembled and the contest began for delegates to Chicago, it was said that C. II. Smith, of Worthing ton, had pledged the Nobles county delegation to Alex Fiddes, of Jackson This, some of the Nobles county dele gates repudiated, saying that Smith had no right to pledge them, and so they flopped over to the other extreme, went from the best to the worst man offered, and cast their votes for the Luverne criminal.

It was a very illadvised and unworthy act on the part of the delegates, but it is not the first time that politics has been used to give a criminal and an imbecile a boost. VOL. XVI. WORTHINGTON. NOBLES COUNTY THURSDAY, MAY 31.SIS88.
