The Nonlanian of last week took rather
novel ssck on the Railroad question. Instead
Of the old croak that the Northern Pacific
will not be built for . generation or two, It
now accepts the speedy construction Of
that road - settled fact; and instead Of
the much agitated North and South nrnow
gauge. which Il has been endeavoriug for .
year 10 drag up Bear river, II now urges
another raiiroad"-to come In competition
with tho Northern Pacific and relieve %
frum the impositious Of the Northern monop.
oily. TO the building Of such "another
railroad" II would chccrfully advocate the
guaranteeing Of interest for thirty years on
some millions of bonds, ETC., etc. The
necessity for this Il illustrated by tho recent
advance Of rates on the U. r. and q. r.
roads, and the subsidy dose is swcctencd to
tho pals,es OF Montana Taxpayers BY IN.
Vulnerable sacks Of sugar st an advance Of
three cents per pound. OF course the xes-
sa1ian sces that the North and 6outh mar
row gauge could not help lessen particle
the rates on those roads or the fre!ghts on
Montana sugar, and 70 the argument vecrs
on from advocacy Of that particular scheme

light and confined mostly to articles OF necessity
The receipts Of grain are light, owing 10 'h'
lower prices since close of navigation
I In money matters the situation is about Inc
same. The b nks generally contne their accom-
modatons to their regular customers, whose
business entities them to such fayors.
In New York money matters have brighter
look. and the impression is gaining ground tha'
the event of the financial panic is over, ana lha'
