. e r n Chicago lUllwty Age.
At Big Springs commenced om > of
the surprising find interesting portions
tions of my journey. From Jiero
westward for n hundred miles stretches
out tlio grcnt Iilnno Kjtncndn , or
Staked Plains of our iH'ogrnpliiua , n
supposed desert , treeless anil wnlur-
less. I would liuro express tliu wMi
that it may take its place with tlio
"Groat American Desert" ninotig the
"cogrnpliic.il myths , In point of
fact , it i an oluvatcd wUinu tnlilo
land , rising grncUmlly toward tlio cen
tre , where it attains a height of
2,500 to 11,000 feut iibovo the
sea level. It 1ms rich prairie soil ,
nnd is covered with a luxuri-
and growth of r.isi. The lookout Inr
water supply is not , at first sight ,
promising , Ihoro being throughout IH !
whole extent absolutely no running
w.itor , nnd when tlio railway engineers
readied this portion of their work ,
they were prepared to encounter the
dearth of water as the chief difficulty
they hnd to contend with , this antici
pation was dissipated with tlio first
well they Mink , for an abundance of
water wnn struck at a distance of forty
foot below the surface. Since thun
Qvory well sunk has yielded the nnmo
result , nnd the division of tlio road
ever the Staked PluiiH has the best
water supply to-day on the whole lino.
It soctns that the whole country is
honeycomcd with siibturranuiin water
courses , the wells reaching them at a
depth varying from thirty foot to n
little ovt-T fifty foot , in ono instance.
The water is good , soft , clear water ,
and the wells all through the eo\oto
drought of this fall have given no n gn
of any failure in supply. So far as
observation has uxtended , it bus
shown that the rainfall on the plains
is quite as heavy , if not heavier , than
in eastern Tuxaa.
Another genuine surprise was in
titoro for us on the "pliiins , " Laat
Juno and July , when the road wan
under construction , thocampn of grad
ers and construction nion were pitched
on the ground close to the right-of-
way , und in fvi'iling their stocks portions
tions of corn , oats and barley hud boon
spilt on the ground. It had token
root in the sod without having huen
planted , and IIH wo passed by Ihoro
stood in patches along the right-of way
fully developed oats and barley and
stalks of corn that moomirud at li'i
four feet in height , with full-fixed e.irs
upon them. In short , it in a country
that is capable of becoming tlio urana-
ry of the Southwest , and at its elevation
tion wheat culture will in all proha
bility bo very miccesHfnl. The plains
are the range of immense hards of antelope -
tolopo and occasional huiralo , and mar
velous aiorica were told mo of tlioir
racing the trains and of shootinu them
from the can * , but wo were evidently
not there on a good day for them , as
wo did not catch a plimpso of either ,
and had to content ourselves with the
sight of nn occasional coyote and the
ubiquitous prairie dogs.

Qenorul Oarfiold'a nomination at
Chicago was a distinct nnd majestic
triumph of the popular forces of the
Republican party as opposed to th
arbitrary power of senatorial boss rule.
The issue had boon clearly and sharp
ly drawn through ail the preliminary
contest. The republican masses had
spoken out in the most emphatic
terms , and the sentiment of the party
was overwhelming and uninistakoablo.
In the convention the real majority of
the actual republican representatives
was far greater than the nominal tally
indicated , for a largo proportion of the
minority had no republican constituencies
oncios behind thorn. Had the choice
boon confined to the states whicli
could cast a vote for the republican
candidate , the majority would hvvo
boon two to ono.
Yet , when Gonpral Garfield came to
wganir.o his administration , ho pro.
coodcd in the most liberal , broad und
just spirit , and embraced all the ele
ments of the party. Though the sentiment
timont of the majority had been so
vigorously declared at Ohicago , ho did
not restrict his councils or his confi
dence to their side. Instead of pro
scribing or ruling out any wing ho
fairly and honorably sought to make
his administration stand for the whole
party. As a pledge of his freedom
from all factious spirit , ho selected
three pronounced Grant men for his
cabinet. Mr. .lamos hnd been at
Ohicago laboring for Grant's nomina
tion though too honorable and enlightened -
lightened a man to bo a mere fao-
tionist of any interest. Mr.
Lincoln had been n Grunt delegate ,
and was appointed for Logan.
Jud o Hunt wan equally n supporter
of Grunt. Thus three out of the
Hovon members of the cabinet ropro-
Bontod the minority which had been
defeated in Gnrliold'it nomination ,
Mr. Windom , though himself a candidate -
didato at Cliicuuo , was in sympathy
with the Bikinu ulumcnt , and rathtir
tipped the scale on that eido. Mr.
MacVoigh spoke for thoiiidopemli-nta.
Mr. Kirkwood was n lil.iiiu ) man
simply because Iowa nan a liluino
state , nnd Mr. lilaino himself WAN the
only other representative of the ma.
jonty. The plain design of such a
construction was to reeognin' , unite
and harmonize all wings of the party ,
The republican masses cordinlly up-
proved Ibis purpose and spirit. They
had risen in revolt against tliu ofl'on-
sivo assumptions of boss rule , but
they were willing that nil elements of
the party should have their rightful
measure of recognition and inlluence.
They protested against thodictation of
a few , but they wanted all to stand
together on an equal footing. 'When
lho shotof the asiiiBuin utiuukduwii
the embodiment of the popular choici
and will , they earnestly hoped thai
sainn broad und patriotic spirit would
prevail , If an administration whicl
represented the majority could be thui
liberal and considerate , there wan al
the ranro reason why an administra
tion which spranu from the minority
should sock to win a wide nnd mori
general approval. The people havi
watched the changes with the deeper
interest and with a generous am
friendly dispotitien to give a fair urn
full trial. They have seen Ulimio
MaoVpagh , Windom und Jumcs , rep
/ottuntiiig various elements , retin
from the cabinet , and they have suoi
four men outer ull chosen fiom tin
same minority side , and two of then
fnra the old group of Grant senators
And now they nro told that the nt'X
choice is to Ito nnothcr from the same
group.
Tresidont Arthur has done much
which has deserved and commanded
public approbation. The appoint
ment of Judge Grny to the supreme
bench was ndmirnblo , and it does not
detract from Iho merit of the selection
that President Garliold hnd determin
ed on it before bis death. The sn
pncity Jisplaycd in organizing tliu
treasury secured genoml recognition.
The message wns strong nnd weighty.
Tlio people nro nnximm that
the new administration shall
be Hiirccssful , and fell the
more because of the circumstances
under which it came into being. The
best friends of President Arthur will
earnestly hope that ho may not bo be
trayed into the mistake of taking Mr.
Sargent into the cabinet. The line
has been stretched ni far in that direc
tion s it is prudent to go. Without
regard to pnrticular individuals the
people feel that the administration
should aim , like that of President
Garficld , to represent the whole pa. -
ty , and the next appointment will de
cide whether the present tendency is
to be checked.

C1ilr EO Tribune.
At the opening of navigation in
1881 there wai an nmuiml rush of
water down the Mississippi river , and ,
owing to the high rates of railroad
transportation to the Atlantic seaboard -
board , there was considerable wheat
nhipped by banjos to Now Orleans for
exportation. Our esteemed friends in
St. Louis hastily , rather too hastily it
scums , announced under the striking
caption of "At Last , " that the grain
trade of the Mississippi Valley hud
abandoned Chicago , and through St.
Louis and the great river would hence
forth find ita way to the markets of the
Old World. In duo time the railroad
rates were reduced , and the great bnrge
business wns practically tjuspondod.
From thi ) oflicinl returns of the year's
business wo gather the following re
sults :
Flour Receipts , 1,550,0 > 1 barrels ;
shipments , 2fl,52l ! ! ) ! barr Is u de
crease of about 100,000 barrels recoiv-
l mid (500,000 ( barrels in shipments ,
k'hrnt Receipts , llr.K.M ! ) bushels ;
lii ] ments , < > HRti ! , ( ! ! ) bushels a do-
ease of 0,500,000 in receipts and a
ecreiwo -1,000,000 bushels in ship-
louts.
Of the shipments .1,750,000 bushels
vent by river to New Orleans for ox-
iort , which is 2,000,000 bushels less
linn in 1880.
Corn Tlio receipts were L'0,201,810
Hinhols ; shipments , l-i,42t , ! ! ! ) . ' (
Mishols Decrease in receipts li.OOO-
00 bushels , and in shipments it,000-
)00 ) hnshcK
Of the shipments about 8,250,000
ushels of corn wont to New Orleans
'or export.
The total shipments from St. Louis
iy bargu to Now Orleans for export
ivero , ' 1,750,000 bushels of wheat and
,250,000 bushels of corn , the two
louihinod being something less than
no-half of the total shipments of
rhcat and corn from St. Louis during
ho year 1880. Wo quota those
inures not for the purnoiu of pointintr
> iit the smallness of tlio grain trade
1 St. Louis ascomparod with Ohicago ,
but to explain why the expectations
f an immense trade by the cole-
ruled barges have proved to bo fail-
urea. ThJ wheat shipment from St.
Louis to Now Orleans did not equal
ho receipts of wheat at Chicago by
ho Illinois & Michigan canal ; nor did
equal more than the shipments
rom St. Louis by rail nnd water to
ho oust and to nil the other cities and
owns all through the southern states.
The Tribune has pointed out ro-
outcdly the great value to all the
ooplo of the Mississippi Valley in
laving the Mississippi river outlet
iniulo navigable for ocean steamers.
No place in the west , not uvon St.
Louis , is likely to derive so much ben-
lit from having the Mississippi river
lormnnontly navigable , except in
winter when fro/.on below St. Lou is ,
[ is is Chicago. It is immaterial wheth
er a bushel of grain is over transpor-
' od by that river , so long as the fact
remains that it may bo so trans
orted in any quantity and nr
reasonable rates. St. Louis last
pring , by sending a largo quantity of
groin to New Orleans for export ren
dered nn immeiiso service to Chicago
and to all the West. It opened the
eyes of the railroad managers to the
certainty that while that river was
open there was a limit to the rates of
runsportation. The railroads were
brought into direct competition with
the river barges at St. Louis , and the
whole West reaped the profit of tlio
competition. The railroad competi
tion could no longer bo maintained ,
imd tliu West is richer by many mil-
'ions of dollars by the result. It is
rue that St. Louis did not gain much
trade by the opur.ition , but aha ron-
lured a great service to the Western
producer * , and the lesson is one that
is not likely to be forgotten by the
i ail way * malingers in the future.

A Moan Trick on u Tailor.
lorontoCituailu ) Mull , HKC. 27.
A few days ago a young man with
his left shoulder elevated about six
inches above the right entered a mer
chant tailor's in this city , and asked
to bo shown some diagonal cloth. The
worthy shopman was ono too happy to
comply with the request , and after
half an hour's iiiNpoction a coat valued
at § 1(5 ( was ordered , and a "perfect
fit" guaranteed to thi deformed i pwi-
men of humanity. Ho paid a small
deposit as a "guarantee of good
faith , " and was told to como round in
the course of two or three days to try
Hon. Punctual to appointment , thi
"specimen" put in tin appear ,
unco , and the diagonal
cloth was fitted to the diagonal
back. Finally the day arrived on
which the "perfect fit" was to IK
ready , und the customer uus ( hero iu
punctual as before. It was again trioc
on , but this time there wua evident ] )
something wrong. The shopnmi
opened hia eyes in nbtonixhmont , foi
ono shoulder covered his customer'i
left ear , while the tails on the oppo
site side struck , out at un angle < -f 41
degrees. There was nothing for it ,
however , nnd to lose the cloth , for , m
even the tailor admitted , it could nol
bo altered to a "perfect fit. " The
mistake was explained when the de
formity dropped his shoulder to a
natural pimitun and bolted through
the donr before the tailor had recov
ered from his astonishment. It was
done for a bet , but was a menu trans
action after all.
"Tho Mnxwoll Steal. "
To tlif Kdllor of the He * .
An article appeared in TUB UKK
yesterday with the above heading ,
which has induced me to pen the fol
lowing remarks
The question of surveys in the
United States is ono which should
call for immediate action on the part
of the legislature of Iho country-
the system as at present employed of
sub-dividing an extent of country
with squnto sections and townships is
altogether eronoous , and founded
upon a mathematical impossibility ,
in lion whereof the natural and well
defined features of the country or
district should bo chosen , prominent
and well marked points selected for
stations from which to carry out a
connected system of primary
triangulation with secondary and
toHiury triangles of necessary
filling in between those more distant
primary points and lines. With such
a work as the base of operation , we
should have no such outcry as that
raised in the present instance ,
wherever the work of certain survey
ors is systematzcd as "absolutely
false , " calculated to 'deceive and
mislead , etc , "
As to the motives of the surveyors
in question I can . < uy nol hint ' , , but
with the data alforded or given by
them , I should say that it was not im
possible for n subsequent survey to
close.
The Colorado deputy surveyor , with
his men , am represented to have made
"diligent search for some days , " enduring -
during "Iho greatest hardship and
fatigue" in search of "witness" cor
ners , " from which to commence his
surveying operations. Assuming that
the witness'cornerornectioncoriiors of
the original survey weto over planted ,
, hcy were , from the nature of the
lyitom employed , not improbably
licked awny in some inaccessible and
tmcuro locality , where it would bo a
nero matter of chance if they were
ver seen or found again ; whereas had
onio well defined prominent features
icon propeily marked with "inonu-
nonts" of stone or other material of
ufliciont durability , and the triangu-
ation and topography correctly plot-
ed and shown on paper by the first
urvoyor , there could bo no possible
lilliculty in any subsequent surveyor
taking up such work us closing there-
ilh.
ilh.From
From my own exporionoo of the
loda of sectioning followed in this
ounlryl have no hesitation in saying
hat thu system is rotten at the core
ml altogether talso and erroneous ,
'he so called "monuments" which are
lUpposod to murk the section corners
ire at the best but a single stone
ound in the locality , and stuck up on
ind , upon which a few chisel
cratches are made , or may bo a
wooden post is employed , and in some
instances the spot is merely defined
by a small mound of earth. In any
20so , there is nothing in the monument
ment itself to distinguish it from the
tones of the locality , and nothing
whatever to render it conspicuous ; so
hat wo have not merely un erroneous
ystom of the bases , but that system
carried out very imperfectly.
Previous to my arrival in this
lountry I practised for twenty-fivo
oars us a land surveyor
ndor the British government of
ho Capo of Good Hope , us with the
> rdinunco survey of Enuland , the
ho work is all conducted tri gonomo-
rically ; the boundaries of districts
ind estates are marked by stone Loti
ons , or piles of stone , limo whitened ,
limited upon eminences or conspicu-
us spots , the boundaries being either
traight lines from beacon to beacon ,
T else banks of rivers and streams.
Ind such a system boon adopted in
.ho survey under consideration thsro
i'ould have been no cry that the "wit-
OSSOB corners" wore not to be found
nd the work not closing by a distance
f eleven miles. K. T. COOI-RH ,
