NARROW GAUGE.

Hon. p. w. Meadow is ont in the
"Husbandman'' with an article in favor
of the Narrow Gauge Railroad subsidy,
and Sample Orr follows him up on the
same page, withou: any design or ''malice
afor-thought.' and knocks Meadows
arguments intointinitesimal' smitherings.
Mr. Meadow is evidently wbistling in
order to keep up courage. He has asccr-
'ained bv this time that in supporting
and voting for the subsidy Bill he was
not representing either the interests or
the weI-knOwn sentiments of his con.
stI'uents. In the article referred to. Mr..
Meadow claims that 1.-The people of Gal !.
latin county are 0ivlued on tie question,
and men, who, in the beginning, de-
rounced it in the bilterest terms, after
mature reflection are not so strong IN their
opposition, and will, if the proposition is
submitted, vote for the Bill" This. we
think, will be news 10 tie people of Boze-
man aud Galla'in county, and would speak
well for the personal influence of Mr.
Meadow if the facts justified the assertion.
We have hea' d OF but one convert that he
has made since HIS return from the capital
and that is family affair. For once.
Williams sympa'hies have gotten the
Better of his judgment. and that, perhaps,
Is no particular discredit to him under the
LONESOME and unfortunate circumstances
in which his brother has placed himself.

Intended appliration to the citizens of

THE GOVERNOR.

A rumor reaches US that an attempt tt
|supercede Governor Potts will socn b.
made-we trust no such effort wilt sue
|ceed. We know the Governor deserves
we'll of Montana. He has by wise meas
ures reduced its DEBT, aud so materially
advanced its interests that he deserves re
tention. 1t is admitted by men of both
parties that he has been our best Execu-
tive, and it would be difficult to prove that
a successor would or could as Efficiently
assume his place.
Without calling into exercise the pref
udices in his favor of Eastern Montana.
We submit it to its people that they pecu
liarly are in duty bound to support him
and not only Eastern Montana but Its
every section. Governor Potts should
not be removed except for Cause. and We
know of none whatever.

EXAMINE 1T.

The article which we reproduce this
week from the columns of the New York
Herald, headed disastrous Railroad In
vtstments," surely gives no uncertain
sound. Nine hundred and twelve and a
half millions of dollars, the greater por-
ton of which, no doubt, was legislated.
or by some other sharp Practice, taken GU,
of the pockets and hands Of the Industrial
classes, has been invested and irrccovera
bly, lost in those .eighty-six reckless, and.
perhaps, illegitima'e railroad schemes.
The real proprietors and man,pulators of
such railro :ds seldom invest dollar of
their own capital 10 such ent, rprises. The
Of tie Utah Northern, from
Ogden 10 Franklin, never cost its present
'wner--Mr. Richardson's single dollar
in money, so we are creLibly informed.

From the New York Herald, Goth ult.]

u From the New York Herald, 26th ul'.
The rapid development of our gigantic
railroad system, especially in the "es'
and South, has been marked by mucl
reckless investment, due to i'll considered
schemes based on misrepresentation OF
the true wants of those sections OF the
country. We are all familiar with the
professions Of certain class OF specu'a'
tors in other peoples money. who pic urt
IN most enticing forms the profits tha'
are to be derived from the construction OF
railroads in regions utterly destitute OF
any attractions for the agrculturlst and
legitimate Spectator. Tn sc men usually
back their statements by exhibiting highly
colored maps, showing by distorted lines
.il the advantages that will follow the
building of new Ioa!s. The farmers
along the line. the towns and villages,
even the counties through which it passes,
are induced to subscribe their money to-
ward Its construction. The contractors
and directors of the company reap all the
benefits of this nefariOus process, while
the real investors hold wothless STOCK and
|reams of dishonOrcd bonds. The state,
mtnt which We print today giving
a list Of the railroads sold under fore
closure, for which receivers have been
appointed or tore closures have been de.
termined on during 1876, makes truly
startling exhibit. Eighty>six roads, hav-
ing total mileage of over fourteen thou
sand miles and representing invested CAPT
tai equal to nine hundred and twelve and
q half millions of dollars, are cassed
among the disastrous railroad invest
mcnts. They represent, as the article
states, one fifth of the total mileage and
one-fif'h of the invested railroad capital
Of the United States; but We would bel
glad to believe that they represent the to-
tai of the losses sustained by those who
have placed, their money in railroad stocks
md St curities. We fear that many roads
not named in the published list should
ind place In it and thus swell the total
IF disastrous railroad Investments to still
more alarming proportions. Considering
hat 1t is nearly always the over-credulous
,ossessors of limited means who suffer
rom the too frequently fraudulent or
,anzation end management of railroad
both Congress and the State
authorities should surround the invest
nrnts of inrocent parties with some Sc
:urity, or at least attach severe penalties
O the commission of offences which
trike at the vital interests of the country.
