Gov. Wise Spoken Of in Connection
with the United States SenntorhhiP.
Speciat Disputch to The Chicago Tribune.
WARRINGTON, D. c., July 23.-Republicane,
especially in tho South, have been glorifying
during tho past week or two over what they
doomed favorable omon to tho party Of tho
Moraliats, which they claimed to find
in tho alleged fact that Ex-Gov. Henry
A. Wise, Of Virginia, had in late
letter put himself aquarely On record in support
Of the Administration OF President Grant. That
letter was addressed to one Of the Governors
old personal friends, who is now in this city.
After stating that he published md announced
that he would not accept nomination for tho
Conservative or Republican Convention to be
held in Virginia, tho Governors own language is
as follows:
If either prefers my platform Of principles, they
eau declare; but It would DO consistent with neither
my principles thclr policy to nominate mo at al II
they desire my election and prefer my PLATFORM To
accept nomination by the Conservative Convention

The President, having been informed Of the
contents Of the above lottor, ia represented aB
being satisfied that Wao is one Of bis support

he is expected to support Hughes, who will
doubtless bo the Republican nominee. In this

candidate will certainly be elected, md at tho

The condition of some Of the aspirants
tor Office at the coming election, ne under
stand. is rather pitiable. Fearing, as is
most liable TO be the case, that the railroad
question will be the leading issue OF the
canvass, they can't always tell you which
one Of the boys they are. We cannot see
why the question should materially affect
any office other than those of representatives
and councilmen. We believe the people OF
Gallatin County will as surely defeat any
candidate for either OF these positions who
fayors railroad subscription as they will the
bill itself no matter which party puts them
onward 1t therefore behooves the Demo
cratic county convention to see that none
but anti-subscription men are nominated for
these positions.

DRY GULcH.-Scveral OF our enterprisinp
/ citizens, among them Messrs. a. w. Tanner
| and CD. Batchelder, have located claims in
| this Gulch, which is situate about three miles
east Of Bozeman. We believe Messrs. Tan
ner and Batche der have already commenced
work in a small way. Forty pans of dirt taken
from these mines yielded forty cents, being an
average OF one cent to the pan. These gentle
men are anxious to bring in water ditch,
sufficient to work all the ground In the gulch.
Such an enterprise. while entirely practica-
BILE, will be attended with considerable ex-
pense -possibly more than these two gentle.
men are able or willing to invest, although
their faith in the richness of the mines lead
them to believe that it would be q paving
investment. There is sufficient ground to
supply good company with all they could
desire, and the organization OF company
would enable its members at a comparatively
light cost to each to bring in such ditch as
iscontemplated. We think it would be in
ffnitely better for our people to drop the
Nerth and South r. r. project, which will
be ANONYMOUSLY defeated in August, and put
what little surplus cash they possess into the
development OF the placer mines around
Bozeman. 1t will require no expensive mills,
machinery. &C., to work them. Muscle, en-
ergy and little capital is all that is needed.
