From present indications It appears
more than probable that the Railroad Elk.
emption Bill, introduced by Combs, OF
Madison county, will pass both branches
Of the Territorial Legislature and become
law. Having regarded the proposition
from the start as open to very serious OBJ
lection. we have not hesitated to oppose it
to the extent Of our ability, and we have
no apology to make FOR pursuing that
course. and we have the satisfaction not
only of believing that we were right. but
Of knowing that the members of the Leg
islature from Gallatin county shared in the
same views and steadfastly labored and
voted accordingly. We are also confident
that If the question to-day were submitted
to the people. the prop osition would be
overwhelmingly defeated.
1t is. Of course. impossible to arrive.
with absolute certainty. at the motives
which have actuatetl some Of the members
Of our Territorial Legislature in this and
other measures which have been pushed
through or defeated against the wishes
and interests OF the whole people. We be
gin to regard it rs a fortunate thing for
Montana that our Legislative sessions can
only occur biennially and that the mis-

made, are restricted to the number which

The Laundress Question From the
Soldiers Standpoint.
FoRT ELLIS. NJ. r., Feb. II, 1S7.

FoRT ELLIS. M. r., Feb. II, 1879.
| Editor Arant Courier:
Under section act of Congress approx
ed June 18th. 1878, objection is made to
the re-eniistment Of married soldiers. and
laundresses are not allowed to accompany
troops.
The above section has done more injus-
tice to good and faithful old soldiers than
the gentleman who passed it arc aware of.
Does it ever enter the minds OF the powers
that be, that the enlisted man is one of the
human family. that his appetite and wants
are supposed to be Of natural kind just
the same as those of other men.
l will now state some facts pertaining to
tie married soldier, and the gIaring injns-
tice done him by the passage of section s.
There are at present in the army great
many married soldiers, who have given
the best days OF their lives to the service Of
their country. and who are now wholly
incapable Of performing manual labor in
civil life, and who are compelled to leave
the army on account Of the passage of sec
ton ). know sDme ofthose married SOL
diers who have served in the same reyi-
ment for Is years. and who have raised
their families IN the army. Now. sir, is it
in keeping with this American Republic
to treat men who have served their coun-
try faithfully for eighteen years, by throw
ing them out of the army. | would also
state that the natural wants of the unr,ar-
ried soldiers deserves some consideration.
The unmarried soldiers require clean IN

shirt. but how is he going to obtain these
necessary articles when section 5 is in .

ted on cross-examination that it might be
better to be dead IL the timber than dis
honored on hill. Indeed, some of the
choicest things in the tusal come out in the
answers to the curious questions asked of
every witness in some form or other.
whether Maj. Reno looked frightened.
The recorder rings the changes upon this
question in the oldest fashion. A witness
is asked how Reno rode into battle. wheth-
er the men seemed sustained by his pres
ence or otherwise, whether his face showed
confidence and command of the situation,
whether when he brought his command
back across the stream he appeared trium-
plant, as one who had achieved brilliant
military manelvre. or confused and depres-
sctl, as commander who had led his men
in disgraceful ront. The trial seems
really to turn upon such intangible things
as the expression Of mans face, and the
witnesses are examined as physiog,omists
rather than as soldiers. They answer this
apparently awkward question withall seri-
business and with an apparent appreciation
of the weight attaching to the coloror ex-
preston Of commanders face in action.

THE EXTENSION OF THE UTAH
NORTHERN.

W. A. II. LOveland, president of tn
Colorado Central railroad. recently visitet
New York city in the interest of the peopl,
Of Cheyenne and the building of the rail
road from that point to the Black Hills
The Cheyenne San interviewed Mr. Love

"Mr. LOveland, have you any inforna.
ton which can be given to the Eeople OF
Cheyenne relative to the intentions of the
Union Pacific road to build a road north
| ward, OF to the Black Hills -
''YOu can inform the people that the
gentlemen controlling the Union Pacific
railroad have no intention of building a
road northwarl from Cheyenne. The
truth Of the matter is this They have got
their hands full now.''
How
'In the first place. they have started to
extend the Utah Northern railroad several
hundred miles this year. This is virtual
extension of the Union Pacific main line.
and is of more importance to them than
road from Cheyenne to the Black Hills.
Then they have made arrangements to
build one hundred and fifty miles of the
Southern Utah road. This alone would
occupy their attention for some time to
come. Then there is the Colorado Cen
trail extension to the San Juan country

''Then you think there is no intention
upon the part of the Union Pacific COM
pany to build railroad from Cheyenne to
the Black Hills:''
Il do. l conversed freely with the d.
rectOrs of the road in New York, and am
a. sured they do not intend to build rail-
road towards the Black Hills this year.
= They have got their hands full
without touching this northern road, and
[ am sure their is no intention of their
it, at least, during the coming
