sonif we will promptly pay for building

pledging our aid to this enterprise, for the
season is advancing and the programme of

HE RAILROAD COMMISSIONERS. The
Railroad Board of Commissioners. from all
the counties. except Jefferson, met in ses.
sion yesterday at the ST. Louis Hotel. Chas.
4, Ellis, Esq. was elected Secretary. Con-
siderable business was transacted but there
being no prrties present to contract, the
Commission--after passing. some resolutions
adjourned The representatives OF the
Helena, National Park and Utah Railroad
Company, IN respectful communication.
declined to bid, OH the ground the act OF
the Legislature authorizing the construction
OF the North and South Railroad did not
hold out sufficient inducements to that
Company to undertake the enterprise; which
communication was signed by r.. Wilson,
y. l.. Dahler, and Cornelius Hedges. No
other company was represented. The
board passed o resolution authorizing n
Territorial Railroad meeting to be held dur
ing the next Territorial Fair at the Fair
grounds near this city, on the End day of
October next, which viii no doubt attract a
large number of persons and result in some
tangible proposition to be acted On here
after. --Gazette.

DEFEAT oFTHE SUBSIDY RING.



L will be seen an extract in this issue,
taken fronlthe Gazette, that the Subsidy ring
has been defeated. No proposition from
reliable company having been rendered, the
commissioners were satisfied that any propo-
sal from the paper company formed in Helena
would be rejected at the polls at the coming
election. and concluded not to risk the chan
ces. But Che people should not relax their
vigilance, particularly in the select on of
their representatives to the next Legislature.
Further legislation will be then attempted on
this question, and we should elect men known
to be opposed to subsidy In every shape.
The terrible condition OF those counties in
the States, laboring under the yoke of sub
sidy, and which are now endeayoring to
throw it off, should be warning to our peo-
pie.
The success in negotiating tie bonds o.
the Northern Pacific Railroad ashonse is al
evidence that that great continental high
way win be constructed as speedily as la.
Dor and capital can do SO, and we beliey,
that then this North and South Railroad,
valuable auxiliary and probably necessar,
for our commercial wants West, and for tin
construction Of. which few wire-pnller
have endeayQred To hn,, lzrfi1.t s tire cUun
ties oI our territory TO subsidze, will b
built without Sary cost to the people OF thi
Territory.

The Modsc Question.

New YORK, June A.
Gen. Sherman had conversation with a
a reporter last evening, and is made to say OF
Gen. Davis, concerning bis Indictment of
Capt. Jack and the preparations for hanging
him and some OF his associates
s'If the statement is correct, there IS not
doubt that Gen. Davis must have exceeded
his duty and he would be held responsible
tor his acts. He should be guided by military
derers. The President himself says they are
murderers, and had Gen. Davis shot them
while they were being pursued, | do not
think he would have exceeded his. duty. He
did not do this, and could not afterwards
murder them in cold blood
Gen. Davis report to Gen. Schofield, Gen.
Sherman says, may differ from that publish
ed in the newspapers. Davis is too expert
enced an officer to do anything that would
bring odium upon the army or lay himself
open to military court martial for exceeding
his duty as an officer. The General thinks
there will be no difficulty in disposing of the
Modocs under arrest. Those found guilty of
murder will be hanged or shot, and IT it is
proved that there was an agreement for
general uprising of the tribes, others will re-
oeiye the same punishment as a warning to
the Indians. He said, however, it was pity
the guilty Modocs were not shot at.tirst, then
all this commission business and expense
would have been avoided.
AS to the killing already OF few prison
ers. Gen. Sherman says those who committed
the deed are low blackguards and murderers,
who had nothing whatever to DO with the
army.
