TERRY AND MILES,

The st. Paul Pioneer Press has this to
say in regard to the rIlmOred embrogliO
between Gsns. Terry and Miles. which we
believe to be correct statement of facts !:
1--WE may taRe the opportunity to say that
paragraphs have been floating around in
the Eastern newspapers to the effect that
since the defeat and capture OF the NeZ
Perces last summer, Gen. Miles has shown
a disposition to.run the military affairs in
the Upper Missouri region, and that Gen.
Terry had been obliged to remind him
gently that he was commanding, this de-
partment. We learn there is no truth in
the statements. The most frie ndly and
cordial feelings exist between Gen. Terry
and Gen. Miles, and nothing has occurred
which warrant any rumor of ms ubortlina-
ton on his part. He is avery ent erprising
officer, however. and does not like to le-
main idle when there are any hostile In
dams supposed to be proving around in
his neirhbOrhOOd.''

TLTE YELLOWSTONE Park.
IBi,marck Tribune Iifh ult

lDioilarcK tribune, 10Th ult.
Protect the Yellowstone Park by all
means possible and practicable. 1t is a
creation that no vandal should be suffered
to gaze upon. Secretary Sclurz's request
for $4,000 to improve and protect should
be granted without dissenting voice,
The report OF the superintendent of the
Park shows the absolute necessity for a
live gllardian-one who can shoot. The
superintendent says that the act of Marcel,
Is, s'S, set aside and dedicated the Vel
lOwstOne National Park for the benefit and
enjoyment of the people, and provided
formally against trespassers and for the
preservation from injury and spoiation of
all timber, mineral deposits, and natural
culiosities and wonders within it. and
their retention in their natural condition !:
also, against the destruction of fish and
game and for the construction of roads
and bridges therein. No appropriation
has yet been made to execute this legisla-
ton within my personal knowledge. which
is confirmed by official publications and
those Of travellers. Valuable forests of
pine and cedar timber have been FRUSTRATED
and travel impeded by the careless use of
fire. Bison. elk, antelope, bighorn sheep,
and other beautiful and valuable animals
have been slaughtered by the thousands
merely tor their tongues and pelts. Great
masses OF ancient timber, fossils, geysers.
cones. and beautifully scalIoped pool Dor
ders which made the region valuable have
been broken up to obtain transportable
specimens, which have been made articles
CT fraudulent commerce. The preserya-
ton of these animals and wonders, and
the construction of roads, bridges. etc.,
are necessary to carry out the act. The
opening of the great Yellowstone route by
steamboats,, and the approach of several
railroad routes, in rapid construction to-
ward it. show the immediate need of prac-
teal means, both to preserve the Park
from irreparab!e damage, and to make the
beauties ENJOYABLE.

A NEW INVENTION.

Prof. Edison, the inventor of the phono-
graph, and whose improvements in the
telepone are so well known, has taken an
other step in this line and perfected what
he calls an airaphone. 1t is an instrument
into which words can be articulated. They
gather such force as to be heard for a num-
Der of miles with great distinctness. 1t is
in TACT talking fog-horn. BY it, captains
of vessels could converse while three or
four miles apart, and signalstation officers
could warn vessels Of dangerous coast in
a more intelligent manner than is now done
by the fog-horn. A company of London
merchants have faith enough in the new in
vention to enter upon negotiations looking
to its application to the telegraph wires in
London.

THE PfXONSGR.pEI.
lib. Instruc'n

Mr.. 4. 4. Edison, of New Jersey. is the
inventor Of the phonograph, and he is now
manufacturing Il large instrument. with a
capacity of $4,000 words. or about six
pages OF a paper the size OF the COURIER.
The following is brief description of the
invention:
\ rubber mouthpiece inclosed thin
diaphragm OF terrotype metal, which was
easily Jared by the voice. causing a steel
needle underneath to vibrate in unison.
Around a grooved iron cylinder was wrap
ped Il sheet of tinfoil. and the moutapiece
adjusted SO that the needle point rested
lightly upon the foil. The operator talks
into the mouthpiece and turns the cylinder
at the same time, and the needle travels in
the grooves around the tinfOil, making in
donations in its surface ut every vibration
caused by the voice. When the entire sur
face has been traversed. the mouthpiece is
readjusted to The starting point, and. rs
the crank is turned, the needle springs
from hole TO hole In the tinfoil. causing
the diaphragm to vibrate as it did when
originally Jared by the voice. AS this
causes the opening and shutting of the
valves Of the diaphragm, everything that
has been said in the mouthpiece is repro
duced with startling accuracy. The ex-
PLANTATION having been concluded, the op-
orator said slowly and distinctly in the
mouthpiece:
Now is the winter Of our discomfort
Made glorious summer by this sun of
York:
And all the clouds that lowered upon
our house,
In the deep bosom OF the ocean buried.
Hip. Hip. Hurral,... Three cheers for
General Grant. Houp Ia! Va hoo!
The cylinder was then reset, and the ma
chine repeated the words in precisely the
same tone, causing shouts OF laughter from
the spectators.

TEN as it has been carried on during the
past few years at least, is utterly democrat
ling to all parties in interest and calls
loudly for some Congressional action that

measures proposed by the General Gov
eminent looking directly toward the bene-
fit relief and protection of the laboring
most important and deserving,
but perhaps, the least protected from
swirdling corporations and gigantic mon

nunity.
We shall have occasion to refer to this
subject again next week. and will then
ilow how the system is operating in Eng

SAM TILDEN'S TAXES.
Judge DlatchfOrd Decides Against the
Distinguished Defendant.

New YosK. March 2G.-Judge Batch
ford, of the United States District Court,
gave decision to-day in the suit Of the
United States against eX-Gov. Samuel j.
Tilden. to recover some $l5O, 600 income
tax, alleged to be due the Government by
defendant. The suit, it will be remember
ed, was brought in the United States Dis
trict Court When Mr.. Tilden was the DEM
ocratic candidate for President, and it is
alleged that the suit was only brought for
political purposes. The counsel for Mr..
Tilden set up demurrer, and the case was
argued at great length.
Judge Blatchford's decision is quite
lengthy, and cites innumerable authorities,
principally the United States Supreme
Courts decision in the Dollar Savings Bank
case and the Rhode Island case, lately de-
cided by the Supreme Court. He sustains
the defendants demurrer to the first count
in the complaint on the ground that in the
years covered by this count Mr.. Tilden had
made a return of his income and paid the
tax on such return. On the other eleven
counts in the complaint, he sustains the
United States, in its demurrer to the an
swcr of the dcfense-holding, virtually.
Tint the Government was not bound by the |
action Of the United States Assessor rs its
agent, and that MIR. Tildcn was required to
make, himself, the return Of his income,
which he had not done.
The case is now to proceed to trial by
Jury on the question of the amount of in
come of Mr.. I'ilden during the years in
which he made no returns himself.
In three years Mr.. Tilden allowed the
United States Assessor to make return,
md paid the tax on such returns, together
With penalty Of five per cent, but this
J~.-t hold l.at this u.as not sufficient rs
will be .orl ny the decision above. 1t is
more than probable that Mr.. Tilden's coun-
el will appeal the case to the United States
supreme Court.
