The project of Mr. n. Lssner, to test,
practically, the mining of river beds, of
which the HERALD year ago published ac-
counts in detail, is about to be renewed, the
experiments to be made on the Missouri,
near Edmonson's Ferry. The dredging ma
chinery already procured, is capable of lift
ing 800 tons of gravel in ten hours working.
Lumber and ,imbers for the boat have been
purchased from Sanford & Evans, and the
heavy fiat necessary to the enterprise will be
built at as early day as possible. Mr.. Liss-
ner is quite confident of success.

Speculations as to the route which the
Northern Pacific will adopt through Montana
to a point west of the 'Ridge Pole of the
Continent are still rife. By our neighbors
in the Gallatin country it is surmised that the
road, after reaching the Yellowstone, will
traverse that valley to point intersected by
the Bozeman pass, crossing there the inter
vening divide in sight of Bozeman town,
sweeping thence across Gallatin valley, up
the Jefferson, and tributary waters, and
across the main range by the Deer Lodge
pass. By others the plain line of the road il
marked out by route estimated at over 100
miles shorter distance in reaching the same
given point west, viz: Leaving the Yellow.
stone above Miles City, crossing to the Mus
cleshell country adjacent. surmounting by
eligible grade the Belt divide, debouching into
the valley of the Missouri below the Three
Forks, and thence on to the Backbone, pene-
trating to the West Side by one of the several
surveyed passes near Helena. 1t is doubtless
premature to attempt at this time any cOrrect
guessing as to the exact route which the road
will pursue in covering this interval of coun.
try. An item furnished the Sioux City Jour- |
nal by the Chief Engineer of the Northern |
Pacific indicates that the road will cross the
Yellowstone at or near Miles City, following
the river to point some eighty IN les above.

A Butte dispatch, received this morning,
states that Joe Scott, the disreputable rough
who figured in the recent assault upon John
Willis, clerk at the Cosmopolitan, shot and
killed the woman claimed here to be his wife
and generally known under the so6riquet of
"The High Kicker" The tragedy occurred

able, and his punishment, we trust, will speed

SOME VERY PLAIN TALK. !.

10 iAe EdftoF o. The Chicago IFlbunt.
CHICAGO, May 29.-The most Suspicious
feature III this "Grant" movement is, that
the big and little Bosses connected with thai
affair want him chiefly elected under the
strange pretext that American citizens must
have strong Government
] reply that the man who says that is a
traitor to this country, and degenerate, a
bastard son Of his native land.
This is bad sign, this call for a ssstrong
Government Who wants It, this "strolg
Government What does it mean but a
one-1nan power, or centraGzation Of power,
for the benefit Of the sham Americans who
admire the snobbery and the standing armies
Of Europe, and who have long ago forgotten
what patriotism meanso
We want no more military men for Presi-
dents History mentions but a few, three OF
four cases only, Of great warriors who also
were possessed Of the necessary qualifications
to become good rulers. If lie 7nust have the
third term, let us elect him for life at once,
and have done with it. Why is it that this
man. whose silence almost reminds one Of
Louis Napoleon's conduct before the I'd
Of December. 1S52,-why does he persist
i'll running again for the Office OF Chief Mag
istrate? Is It ambition? Surely lie ought to
be filled even to nausea. His tour through
Europe was such as to satisfy the ambitious
cravings Of hundreds of 1nen! Does he not
know that this talk about being put forward
BY his friends IS all bosh? Is any man stupid
enough not to know that he is .ssiIent'
partner of Conkling, Cameron, and Logan?
Aud when he declares that his enemies can
not get him off the track. has he so far be-
come un-Americanlzed us to forget that man
may oppose "H1M :" and yet love his coun-
AS military leader, he stands foremost in
the ranks of great Generals. For this we
ami future generations owe him q debt of
gratitude which no one will deny. There is
a limit, however, to this, and surely lie cali
nett not tf3s u.s. Tar complain Of ingratiude + lie
which Is unlikely, then he is unworthy of it.
ask, then, what is behind all this num-
merry? Can It be that lie Is simply tool in
the hands of the schemtng syndicate? And
telnptible tricks and tia fraud Of which lis
friends have thus far been guilty?
While we acknowledge the great debt we
owe HUN, we must not forget that u a greater
than Grant Is here,-the good old Republican
His friends pursue singular line Of argu-
mtnt III defending him. They ridicu1e his
opponents, sneer at the1H apply to them vile
names, and stop at nothing low or mean. But
they have faile.l SO far to bring forward 4
single reason in his favor why he should
rule this land once more.
The truth IS, the past is ugly. His second !
term with its surroundings is blank leaf in
American history. And yet with this rec
