road, on which the guide board stands whereon
God wrote, By the sweat of thy face shall
thou eat thy bread You followed that road
about year longer and it brought you out to
the high summit of the prosperity which
shines and smiles all over this great land of
ours, and it smiles all the brighter because
you deserve it by keeping faith and maintain
ing the truth of the multiplication table in
your financial doctrine. l congratulate you
that the same multiplication table that you
believed in two years ago in the darkness is
true to-day, when the sunlight of prosperity
falls upon the land. [Great applause.l /

Heading or the Northern Pacific.
New York, August 4th.-A Washington
special to an evening illustrated paper says
Jay Gould has had surveyors busy in Mon
tana all summer, and proposes to head off the
Northern Pacific by the extension of his own
lines to Puget Sound He has had surveys
made of the first hundred miles for the new
track, and it will start from Cheyenne It
will pass within twenty miles of Fort Lara
mie, or perhaps run to that place, and then
go on to the vicinity of Fort Mckinney.
Thence the road will hear west through the
Big Horn country to Yellowstone Park. The
first thing Gould thinks he can accomplish to
make the road pay expenses will be to turn
tourists toward National Park This hei

bers to make the enterprise profitable. From
the Park noroute has yet been decided upon. but
it will probably bear west, south of the Bitter
Root mountains, along Snake River Valley.
The surveyors are expected to report every
day upon the first hundred miles, and Gould
will undertake to build that much between
now and the first of next January. The
rapidity with which the line will be pushed
on from the National Park will depend some
what upon the vigor manifested by the North
ern Pacific people. The first object is to head
off rival enterprises, and if possible, to
frighten them out of the field Another
minor branch of the enterprise will be road
to connect with the new line near Laramie,
and proceed to Deadwood, thus tapping the
Black Hills country. This will do away with
the necessity for any further parley on the
part of the Chicago and Northwestern peo-
pie for the right to cross the Sioux Reserva-
t1on from P1erre to the Hills, for which favor
Spotted Tail modestly asked 10000 head of
blooded cattle.

Washington special says: The publication
of Hancock's letter to Sherman, in reply to

there is now loud demand for the publica-
tion of the two letters of Sherman, which
called for the Hancock letter. Sherman says
he is not disposed to mix himself in the Pres
idential contest, but if the publication of the
two letters referred to will further benefit
Hancock or make more clear his letter to
him, then Hancock has Sherman's permission
TO give them out for publication.
