It appears from our spccia1 Washington dis
patch that tho California & Texas Construction
Company Is the growth Of Credit -Mobilier
operation not leas impudont and comprehensive
in Its inception than the one which last winter
attracted tho attention Of Congress and Of tho
country. Tho frat movors in this scheme wore
Col. Scott and other officers Of the PonnAylyania
Railroad Company. It's merits woro freely can-
vassed, and its stock negotiated, ut tho very
time TINT Congress- was engaged in inycsti-
eating tho similar concern belonging to
the Union Pacific Railroad. Congress-
mon, politicians, aud lobbyists we're its
atool-pigeons, as they wore Of the Credit Mo-
bilier, aud wero used to allure capital into tho
scheme to food the cormorant appotitoa OF tho
controlling stockholders. It is now proposed to
turn tho asaots Of tho Construction Company
over to Frank 8. Bond, one Of ita Vice-preBi-
dents, and this Ia regarded as another step in
tho process by which tho largo stockholders
seok to absorb tho Investments Of tho amall

1t last NO hayo some consolation for the
money paid over to Russia for Alaska. The
San FranoiRo Bulletin asaurea us that coal, iron,
and gold abound In Alaska, and this Territory is
worth evory whit as much today as Arizona. II
is gratifying to know this. Now, ii there could
DO some way invented to equalize the climates
Of these two Territories, VIC should be supreme
ly satisfied. Arizona, it will bo remembered, is
the country whose inhabitants send back for
their blankets aftor they have departed auz CIT

country where tho Christian missionaries have
to represent hell as made Of icoborga in order to
torrify the heathenH Of that severe climate. A
tho two Torritorios now, belong to ono and tho

Of rejoicing over the election Of Mr. Taylor as

State ticket. The opening speech Of Judge Or

made speech, in which he choHe to olnim tho
result Of the election as q Democratic victory,
and, 30 far 40 re cau judge from the report ot

throughout that it Was grand victory Of the
