COLORADO RIVER NAVIGATION

A meeting of the citizens was held in
San Francisco on the 30th ult, to con-
slider the project of forming Colorado
River Navigation Co., and there is little
doubt that line of two steamers, with
barges, will shortely be put on. They
expect to supply Utah with goods from
California at three cents per pound
freight, whereas, the railroad, when
completed, connot carry freight for less
than double that amount. The river is
claimed to be nayigable to Callville,
Utah, 600 miles from it's mouth. Utah
has 125. 900 of population to be sup
piled, and tits expected the navigation
of the river will stimulate and encourage
the development of Arizona, making it
an important and profitable enterprise.
The estimated cost of the boats, barges
and incidental expenses to start the line
is $4,000. The river is navigable
all the year. Brigham Young has long
looked upon this as the most economical
route for transportation of goods to Utah,
and at the present conference a very
large missionary corps has been appoint
ed to the southern districts of the Terri
tory. This has new significance when
taken in conjunction with the proposed
navigation of the Colorado and it may
not be an unfortunate mission to those
who are delegated by the Lion of the
Lord. In reu;arking upon this proposed
enterprise, the Vedette encourages it
and says: at is now conceded by all
parties that the q. p. r. r. will pass 100
or $50 miles north of Salt Lake city,
1t favors the establishment of rail
road from Salt Lake to Calyille. This
confirms the rumor that the U. p. r. r.
will pass north in the vicinity of Fort
Bridger and Snake river and will throw
it so much nearer Montana. From pres
ent indications. FIVE years hence will see
Montana in direct railroad communi-
cation with the East and West, by the
Northern Pacific route while the prox-
unity of the Central road and the river
navigation will offer sufficient compe-
tition to insure easy rates of transport
tation. In the meantime, if the Colo
RADIO river is navigated as proposed,
freight from San Francisco to Virginia
city should not exceed twelve cents per
pound.

A Grateful Tribute.

EDITOR PosT-Dedr Sir: In your val-N
liable paper of the 9Th inst. 1 noticed an
account of the murder of F. s. Lovejoy,
at Beartown, NJ. T. Nothing has occur
red of late that has given me more pain
than the receipt of the intelligence of
the death of poor Lovejoy, and the bru-
tai manner in which it was brought
about. The deceased was an old and
valued friend of mine, / having formed
his acquaintance in the sammer of 81,
in the State of Nevada, and having in
the winter of '63, whilst prostrated by
illness and unable to assist myself, re-
ceived from Kim all the delicate care
and attention of devoted brother !;
more appreciable from the fact that it
was pure and disinterested, the offspring
of noble and generous heart. He was
a young man of unexceptionable habits
and endowed by nature with more than
ordinary intellect. He was native of
New Hampshire, and no son of the Gran
ite State has ever fallen upon this coast
who has carried with him to his grave
a purer fame and more grateful remem-
brance than the deceased. He leaves no
better man behind him.

VIRGINIA CITY MONTANA, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 49, 1863

portionment is the only valid one made,
that the members of the House are not
effected, nor can they be, by the procla
nation of the Governor on the 14th inst;
that their certificates from the County
Clerks are their credentials; that no de-
cision having been given, the clerks of
Deer Lodge and Madison have the same
authority for issuing certificates to the
members elected under the first, as the
Clerk of Edgerton has TO issue under the
third /; and they are false to the people
who elected them if all members re-
ceiving certificates do not come up on
the assembling of the Legislature, and
demand their seats, and the Legislature
will decide upon the question as they
have the power to do. We advocate no
violation of law in this. Three procla-
nations of apportionment were issued /;
one only of them is right. Members
have been elected under two. The Ex-
ecutive has no authority to decide which
is right or who is elected, and the proc
lamation is merely a recital of former
former proclamations and an incomplete
list of successful candidates for the Leg
islature. The Governor will not claim,
as Executive, the prerogatives of the
Legislature or judiciary. The decision
must come from one or the other of these
branches of the Territorial government,
and the only way it can be reached is
by the method we have mentioned. As
the one lone star Republican member of
the House elected in Madison will not
constitute a very strong cause for rejoic-
ing, if admitted, we are not prompted
by partisanism in this view of the case.
With all due difference to the Execu-
tive, we assert it upon its equity and le-
gality alone, believing that it is right,
notwithstanding the proclamation and
the views of Governor Smith.

NEEDED.

One of the most annoying and deplor-
able nuisances in new countries is the
absence of mail facilities. In sparsely
settled districts mail routes cannot al
ways be expected, and in many the ex-
press is irregular and infrequent In its
perambulations. These evils have to be
borne at first, but when several hundred
or thousand men are located in one ac-
cessible place, they may justly conceive
that when mail of sixty or eighty miles
would put them in direct communica-
ton with the outside world, that it is
the duty of the government to establish
it. The first thing that is required is
the repeal of the fourth section of the
Postal Law imposing letter rates on all
printed matter reaching this Territory.
Next, an amendment of that contract
with Wells, Fargo & Co, by which they
are only required to carry 600 pounds of
mail every other day, on the overland
route, and either contract made with
them to carry all the mail, or the car
riage let out to private enterprise.
This done, we want several mail routes
established in the Territory. One from
Virginia to Gallatin valley, weekly.
There are 200 to 1,500 people to be
supplied over this route, a class of per
manent residents, engaged chiefly in
agriculture. This route, with offices at
Sterling. Gallatin, Bozeman and some
intermediate point would not be over 80
miles in length. At present, letters cost
fifty cents each, and papers proportion
ately, from Virginia to any point in Gal
latin valley. A route should also be es-
tablishe6 from Virginia to Deer Lodge
city, distance of eighty miles, connec-
ting there with the Helena and Walla
Walla tri-weekly mail. At present there
is not even an express between the two
places and the mails are carried around
treble the distance, incurring delay and
having TO be distributed at Helena.
There are not less than 1000 who would
receive mails over that route. The
Postoffice Department does not expect
new routes and offices to be self
sustaining, yet we have not doubt
that these two routes would leave a
credit margin at the end of the first year.
They are needed, and can be obtained if
prompt, energetic and general action is
taken. Let those interested prepare
petitions, asking removal of the en-
barge on the overland mails and the es-
tablishing of offices and routes, where
they are needed, have the petitions cir
culated, take time to have them numer-
ously signed, and forward them TO your
Delegate, with request to solicit inn
mediate action, or, send them direct to
the Department. There are doubtless
other routes of Importance, but these
two should should by all means be Sc
cured and that speedily. 1t energy,
ability, and determination takes hold of
the project, there is nothing to prevent
their establishment by the 1st of Jan
uary.

EDITORIAL DUTIEs.-Mr. Hunt, in his
volume on the Fourth Estate" thus
sketches the peculiar duties of jour
nalist:
The man who once becomes jour
nalist must bid farewell to mental rest
or mental leisure If he fulfls his du-
ties truthfully, his attention must ever
be awake to what is passing in the
world, and his whole mind must be de-
voted to the instant examination, and
discussion, and record of current events.
He has no days to spend on catalogues,
or in dreamy discursive researches in
public libraries. He has no months TO
devote 10 the exhaustion of any one
theme. What he has to deal with must
be taken up at a moments notice, be
examined, tested and dismissed at once !;
and thus his mind is ever kept occupied
with the mental necessity of the worlds
passing hour.

this AT a printers festival recently held
in Lowell, Mass, the following toast was

CORRECTIoN.-TheS Sacramento Un:0n
in noticing the election for Delegate in
New Mexico, says the total vote was
1929. which is large enough to entitle
the Territory to admission as a State,
being twice as many votes as Nevada or
Nebraska. This is mistake. The Ne
vada vote when admitted as a State in
1864, was 16.420, and at the election last
year, when Registry law requiring the
payment of four dollars poll tax was in
operation, the vote was 9,242. The
population of New Mexico is not enough
to demand admission as a State, and ii
is not of a character that would make il
desirable that the honor should be thrust
upon them.
The Democrat of Sept. %, in pub
fishing the vote of Montana, IL ,662, said
cit is the largest vote ever polled by any
Territory west of the Missouri river be-
fore a State organization" We knew
at the time it was incorrect, and that the
Majors desire to run Democratic State
into the Union warped his recollection a
little, but not having any statistics to
back contradiction. passed it by. We
commend the above from the Reese
River ReUeiUe to his notice.
