staring it in the face, it must neces-

0'lear's Njctory.

The winning of the international pc
destrian match in London by O'Leary
is tue latest American victory over Great
Britain, and of course there is no true
American who will not rejoice at this
fresh triumph for the Stars and Stripes.
If there is, why, he ought to be COM
PEELED to do what O'Leary has done for
the honor and glory of his country in
the walking line. To be sure, our in
terest and pride in the result of the
contest are slightly dashed by the fact
that the victor vas born much nearer
to London than to New York; but new
ertheless he entered the lists as an
American, he represented America,
and if he had been defeated it would
have been set down as an American de-
feat. His honors, then, are our honors;
but if Cork, which has produced nearly
all the great men in the world, insists
upon adding his name to the long list of
her warriors, statesmen and sages, we
must, we suppose, be content, and sur
render all claim to him. AT all events,
rather than quarrel about it, we shall
do SO. But be he Corkonian or Chica-
goan,-we leave the two cities to settle
it for themselves-it cannot be denied
that O'Leary has won a very great vic
tory in his peculiar line, and is undoubt-
eddy the greatest pedestrian in the
world. If there is a better one he has
not been found. The feat which he
has just accomplished of making five
hundred and twenty miles four hun
dred and forty yards in five days and
nineteen hours stands alone in the an
mails of pedestrianism. The best pedes-
TRANS in England were his competitors,
and whatever glory there is in beating
them is all his own. In addition he
has o in money the substantial sum
of thirty-seven hundred dollars and the
champions belt.

MILITARY MATTERS.

A scouting expedition composed of
three full companies of the 9Th cavalry
and two or three companies of the 4th
and 9th infantry left Fort Mckinney
Wednesday, under command of Capt.
Edward Pollock, to scout the head
waters of the Belle Fourches and the
West and South sides of the Black Hills,
as far North us the limits of the depart
ment of the Platte will admit. The
scouting party will be absent about a
month. 1t is not called out by any
special disturbance, but goes merely in
the performance of the duties of the
military as a patrol, to examine the
condition of that region. Fort McKin-
ney, the point from which the detach-
ment started, is about It's miles North
west of Fort Laramie, and is the most
Northern post of the Department of the
Platte. The expedition was fitted out
and expected to leave a few weeks ear
lier, but was delayed by the great storm.
Lieut.. Lemuel A. Abbott, 9th Caval-
ry, is granted five months leave of alb
sence, with permission to apply for an
extension of seven months.
Capt. J. Scott Payne, 9TH cavalry, de-
partment Of the Platte, is granted five
months further leave of absence.

RAILROAD RACKET.
What Judge Loyeland Says About the Pro,
posed New Road.

Hon. w. A. II. Loveland. president
of the Colorado Genital railroad, has
just been interviewed at Golden in re-
gard to railroad matters. The Globe
man thus sums up the result:
The new railroad project in which the
people of the west, and especially of the
Black Hills, are taking 80 much inter-
est, has assumed a definite shape.
This new company has dubbed itself
the National Pacific railroad company.
Their organization has been completed,
and as soon as a few other matters
can be perfected, operations will be
commenced. The proposed line of
route will be as fellows:
Starting from Cheyenne, the main
line will run to Fort Laramie, about
100 miles, anI from that place to the
Black Hills there will be extended a
branch line, while the main route will
continue from Fort Laramie to the
Yellowstone, to Helena, and from
thence via the most practicable route
to the Pacific slope through Washing
ton Territory.
Mr.. Loveland thinks there is no
doubt but that the road will be built to
the Black Hills the coming season, and
that work on the main line will be
pushed as far ahead as possible.
1t has not been decided rs to what
point in the Black Hills the road will
be constructed. 1t will be built far
enough. however, to give this company
the control of the travel and traffic to
this new mining region. 1t is said that
by opening out this new route it is GO
ing to make Cheyenne a kind of a head
centre for smelling works, rs it will
have a good chance TO get a bid for ores
from the mining regions of the Black
Hills and from Colorado, having cheap
and direct means of communication
with both districts, and being situate
about half way between,
