PRESIDENT ANTINTERVIEWED ON
THE FINANCIAL QUESTION.

The committee of New Workers an
pointed by recent meeting of the
business men Of that city, to present
a petition to the President asking him
to veto the Senate finance bill or any
similar bill tending to imitation of the
currency, called upon the President in
discharge of their mission. Senators
Carpenter, Logan and Ferry, of Michi.
gan, were present. A. A. Lowe and
L. 3. Chittenden explained their views.
The President, in reply, said he had
watched the bill through Congress
with more interest than he had any
other measure since he had been Presi-
dent. He had at all times been
free in the expressions of his views,
and was always opposed to expansion
without redemption, and in favor of
free banking, accompanied with such
legislation as would carry out the
pledges of Congress in the direction
OF the resumption Of specie payments.
But he had to look at this matter a
little different from the views of this
committee. They know very well what
they want, and may imagine, as he
might. were he called to New York.
that the whole country want what
they do. He said the Chairman of a
similar committee from Boston called
on him, and if he ever could be in
favor of imitation it would be from the
effects of such arguments as that gen
tleman advanced against it. But that
portion, unlike this committee, the
Boston gentleman started out with the
condemnation Of what he 1.-THE Presi-
dent1 had always believed to be right.
They opposed the purchase Of United
States bonds with the surplus from
the Q. s. Treasury, and if he had acted
as the Boston committee wanted him
to do, lie would have kept such sur
plus in the Treasury until there was
not a greenback. in circulation. These
bonds were purchased at his own di.
rection. Another argument was used
in the Boston memorial, that tie issue
OF greenbacks was of doubtful legality
and was to be deplored, and had to be
sustained by a bare majority Of l in
the Supreme Court. In conclusion the
President repeated, that his views on
the question were already known as
against initiation and as opposed to
breaking away from the redemption
pledges.

EMIGRATION.


We are Of the belief that there will
be considerable addition to the popu.
lation of Montana during the present
year, particularly in the Yellowstone
region and Gallatin Valley. We hear
Of maiy families that propose leaving
Missouri for this Territory. The Vel.
lowstone country has been well adver-
tised during the last winter, and its
salubrity Of climate and fertility of
soil is'attested by all who have been
in that section. The military forces
at Forts Lincoln and Bufcrd are in a
position to afford protection, and the
sending troops to Musclesllell and Ju-
dith Basin will give great security.
We are well satisfied that the Govern
ment intends to keep the Sioux in
check, and if these Indians indulge in
raids against the whites, that theyy
will be severely punished. Gustav and
other military leaders are waiting with
anxiety for an opportunity to pitch in
and teach the Sioux lesson that they
will not soon forget. The Government
Will unhesitatingly clear the track of
the Northern Pacific Railroad from in
terruption from Indians, and open up
connection to the East from Montana.
The Administration is convinced that
it will rebound greatly to the advan-
tagc Of the entire Northwest to have
unbroken connection on the line Of the
survey Of the Northern Pacific. Emil
grants, once assured of the safety of
travel to the Yellowstone and the set
tied portions of Montana, on the direct
route, will begin to come in and settle
among Ills. The abandonment of the
Powder river route checked immigra-
ton to this Territory. 1t was the natu-
raj route, and when. travel is again
opened from that direction we shall
have very large immigration. People
everywhere are fully advised of the
pro@uciiveness of our soil and the
richness of our mines and will flock in
SO soon as a direct and cheap way Of
getting here is opened up. The estab-
lishment of mail routes and service
will tend more to the accomplishment
of this object than any other means,
and we trust the Postmaster General
will give us mails both from Bismarck
and Cheyenne.

the sale of large portion of her hus-

Apart altogether from the moral re-
Elections which naturally suggest them

glaring ease as this leads one to specu-
