From the Costnne Reporter Feb -
The NEW NORTH. WEST of Deer Lodge
stands by Mr.. Clagett in bis general rail-
road bill. We have said nothing about II
because We anticipated that Stewart would
move bis bill prepared last session for the
same purpose - substitute, and no between
the two House, both would fail. Private
advices from Washington represent that all
Territorial Delegates are urging the Clagett
bill on the Public Lands Committee, and
that probably It will be fsvorably reported
and passed by the Senate substantially -
passed by the House. If not, it will most
assurcdly be, next session. 1t IL . bill 50
well calculated to facilitate the building of
railroads In the Territories, and calculated
10 relieve Congress in the matter of con.
sidering numerous private bills for that
purpose, that It 10 difficult to account for
the opposition to 1t in Helena. There is one
valid objection to II. and that Is, that II ex.
cludcs owners of non. taxable mining prop.
erty from voice in giving county did to
railroads. And this objection loses its force
when It Is remembered that oil mining prop
erly may he patented if the owner please,
and thus be made taxable. The prohibition
of Territorial cid would seem to 10 wise
since Territory is . creature of Congress,
to be modified in boundary, divided up or
abolished % Congress may deem best from
time to time.
That two thirds of the taxpayers of .
county may pledge the taxable wealth of
the whole In aid of railroad construction, Is
= great advance on the previous status of
counties In the Territories in this respect.
For it has heretofore been questionable
whether the unanimous vote of such coun.
ties could do so. The effect will be 10 give
10 such securities o much validity - the
law can give them. We do not believe the
opposition 10 this bill In Helena Is the re.
suit of the sober second thought, and there.
fore bound to be permanent.

Credit Mobilier Investigation was COM
menced, only to sink deeper at every effort
be made to extricate himself. his explana-
tons are succinctly stated by the New York
Tribune as follows: 1.-THE Vice President
said he could not have received the 81 200
from Cakes Ames, since such an addition
to his income was so unusual that there
would have been no possibility of his for
gettiDgit. Oakes Ames therefore produced
the check. he still denied it. Then his
bank account was found to reveal a
deposit Of the proceeds of the check. He
took some weeks to answer this, and finally
said that he received that money in two
sums, 5000 from bis stepfatLer; 81 900 from
Geo. Nesbitt, of New York, comparative
stranger, in single bill, sent by mail, in
an unregistered letter. Now bis bank &C
count is found to show the deposit, not of
note, but of check for $1,000 from Mr.
Nesbitt, and this deposit was made two
weeks before the fatal 81, 200 check-an-.
other for like amount from the same
source, having been deposited some months
earlier. Hereupon Mr.. Colfax explains that
be did receive these checks, but that he also
received the note from MIR. Nesbitt, still
a comparative stranger, by mail, in an un-
registered letter, as previously sworn, and
that he viii presently explain further" 1t
may be added that Mr.. Nesbitt, ga compa-
rative stranger" to Colfax, was a govern
ment contractor. Why should he be thus
sending money to Colfax by the thousand
dollars at time? No public man in our
day has had such fall as poor Colfax. He
may truly say
GIVE touch'd the highest point Of all my great
ness;
And from that full meridian of my glory,
| haste now to my setting. shall fall,
Like bright exhalation in the evening;
And no man see me more"
