SIDES quite a number at the Granite

laheous pursuits. The tenements are
all hiled or spoken for, and we have

MORTON'S CASE.

His Confirmation Theoretically Opposed.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.-To-day's Exc
cutive session of the Senate was wholly de-
voted to discussion of the nomination of
John NJ. Morton TO be collector of Internal
Revenue for the San Francisco district.
The arguments in opposition to his con-
firmation were TO the effect that Morton is
not identified with California, having with
in the last four years been appointed to
the treasury SPECIAL agency at the Alaska
fur seal islands from Indiana; that while
his personal character is 'unexceptionable,
he is not fitted by business training or ex-
perience for the highly important Office for
which he is now nominated, ard that there
is no complaint made against the present
incambent. lie was also argued that as the
Senate, with the same membership az at
present, unanimously confirmed morton last
spring to be Consul at Honolulu, the office
he now holds, no stigma could attach to
him by refusing to confirm his nomination
for the San Francisco Collectorship, to
which he has been nominated against the
united protest of the entire California dele
CATION in both houses aud both political
parties. The case went over to day with
out action. Booth and Farley made tho
principal speeches in opposition to the con-
firmatiou. and Voorhees, spoke in favor of it.
The nomination was subsequently rejected
by vote of 42 TO 10.

The Monroe Doctrine and tn. Canal.

New YORK, 10.-The Herald editorially
says: Nothing could seem more unwise
and ill-timed than the undignified and
scIeechy assertion of the Monroe doctrine
in view of Lesseps' surveys at Panama. es-
pecially since the French Government has
taken pains to make official disayowal OF
any guarantee, Or any assurance of protec.
ton, or any sort of committal To Lesseps
and his project No European power will
venture to challenge our policy in this
quarter of the world. The governments
of Europe baye too just an estimate of our
national strength to undertake engage
ments on the Isthmus which they would be
powerless to fulfill. The attitude which
becomes Us is not one of nervous aud shaky
uueasiness, but of calm aud conscious ma
tioBal strength. Our power and resources
constantly and rapidly grow anG there is no
corresponding growth of European iDha-
ence in affairs of this continent. L. is our
interest to have the Canal exeavated
through the lsthmus as speedily as posi-
BILE and we shall be strong enough to pro-
tect our rights after its completion. Ii
they are obstructed we can seize the terri
tory through which the Canal passes and
hold it by right Of conquest, The powers
OF Europe understand our national charac-
ter too we'll to provoke us on a point where
all the advantages would be ON oar side il
we should deem it necessary to take hold
and possess the strip of territory through
which the lsthmus Canal is constructed.

talk to-day about the scene which occurred

mittee yesterday. when Senator Gordon
denounced as "an infamous, internal false

sharp letter, reviewing Gordon's course, to
the Atlanta Constitution. 1t is scarcely ex.

The Parnell Collapse.

New YORK, Feb. 5.-The Tribune says
of what it calls . the collapse OF blr. Par
nell: - Parnell's quarrel with the Herald,
which he began as sooa as he stepped
ashore, was absurd. The Herald knows a
great deal more about this country than he
does, and especially does it know great
ealmore about the Irish in this country
1t is not altogether ignorant of the condi-
ton of the Irish III Ireland. Yesterday it
showed how much more practical it is than
Parnell in its theories of Irish relief by
heading subscription list of it's own with
the muniicent gift of 100000. This
princely gift compensates for the eontribu-
ton which Parnelrs agitation has inter-
cepted, and it is probably the only good
thing which has resulted from that gentle

DEVELOPMENTS.

CHICAGO, February THE Times, re-
ferring to its Washington dispatches, says
Gen. Grants friends at Washington are 50
confident Of bis nomination at Chicago that
they are discussing the advisability of
sounding Blaine on the subject of accept
ing the second place on the ticket. The
theory entertained in some quarters that
the General will not enter the canvass un-
less his nomination is secure without con.
test, is ridiculed at the capital. Mean
while opinions differ greatly about the po-
sitiens Of Sherman and Blaine. One old
politician says it was very shrewd of Sher-
man to put up Blaine to antagonize Grant.
Said he, Blaine has begun fight upon
Grant, and it is now impossible for him to
come in as an heir to Grants strength in
case Grant is withdrawn. These votes
would much more naturally go to Sherman.
Friends Of Blaine said today that the lat
ter was not doing anything in the way of
organizing as be did last time, and that he
did nos intend to raise his hand. Ali that
is done must be done by his friends. He
does not intend to have any sunstrokes

The letters of Sidney Dillon to The Her.

WEST are the latest developments in Utah
and Northern railroad matters. They both
indicate an extension to or near Gaffney's
this season. We do not see how, without
practically tying knot in itself, the road
can be run ola Gaffney's, Crow Creek, Hele-
ena and Deer Lodge down the river to iu-
tersect the broad gauge on the Columbia.
One thing is evident: The road will be run
up TO point where the trade of the Terri
tory can be controlled, and then Virginia,
Helena and Butte will be addressed as
Zacheus was" come down." DO lar as
Deer Lodge town is concerned we step out
out of tho ring. We have not the popula-
ton or wealth to influence action unless
the county refuses to be divided up and
stands in solid for a measure Of general in
terest. Deer Lodge had ITS opportunity
last summer and rejected it. Virginia
played it's cards better and will now secure
q branch road by direct aid. Lewis and
Clarke and Deer Lodge counties might yet,
by united effort, procure the line over the
route projected last summer. We have nc
doubt the railroad company prefer the
Glendale, Butte and Deer Lodge route &c
Helena and that the extension to Gaffney's
is intended as forcer." The situation
is getting interesting.
