Paper Railway Building.

At periodical intervals the newspapers
publish statements Of the enOrmOu
number Of miles Oi railroad built or be-
ing built Ivy some pet company. In
many cases the greater part Of this con-
str,,ction is never done except in the
s;,nrtlm and railroad office, OH paper.
As to the extension of the Utah and
Northern to Deer Lodge the facts are
that work is ut this writing going wig
orO,,~ly ON between silver bow Junction
and the crossing Of the Deer Lodge riv-
or. The plans of the company rs pub
lisl,c.l are Lomu file, and will he exe"ut-

named, and along distance Of sixteen
miles, eighty tes,i,s and one hundred
and thirty-five men are actually at
work. New men are arriving at the
Junction daily, and in = short time .
substantial force will be set to work be-
tween the river cruising and the town Of

A physician whose skill and profess
sional standing are beyond question in
the community called Attentions to the
fhct yesterday that stsansess In Butte
are constantly being victimised by 90
called medical practitioners. One case
in particular was yesterday brought to
the attention of the gentleman in ques-
ton showed an aggravated imposture
which amounted almost to robbery.
A "pilgrim" arrived here last week
with about enc hundred dollars left.
On the cars he had contracted cold,
which annoyed him in several ways to
such q degree that he concluded to seek
medical advice. Knowing no one. he
picked up one of the daily papers and
saw the Advertisement al specialist
displayed in bold type. He went t. the
address Indicated and told the doctor
frankly that he was u stranger and had
only about one hundred dollars LETT,
ami wanted to know what. was the mat
ter. The specialist, putting on q
grave face, and assuming most
impressive manner informed the
alarmed patient that he had terri
Die disease, and that delay Of a day
longer would have been fatal. That he
alone could cure him, but would charge
800 for his services. The 'piigrim"
lost his head, paid over so in cash and
received Il bottle Of medicine. For some
reason, which will not now lie given, the
patients suspicious were aroused, and
he made inquiries. These resulted in his
calling another physician. The latter
could not understand ut first why the
patient seemed 80 alarmed about what
he, the second physician, had made up
! his mind was nothing more than cold
| and sore throat. With a mysterious ali
the patient asked TO, u private interview
aud said, II want you To know the worst
ut once, Dr., l have 50 and So" Then
came the expose, and the realization OH
the part Of both patient and practitioner
that vile robbery had been l'erpetratcd
Such state of affairs should not be per
mitted in any community. The citizens
and the medical profession ali owe it Il
themselves to guard against such crimes
against ignOrancc.

stick" At the Morris convention they
nominated man who was not present and
could not decline on the spot-Rev. &, L.
Taylor. This gentleman subsequently re-
moved to Odell, which made 1t necessary
to withdraw from the canvass. The con-
gresslonal committee have now induced
Otis Hardy of Joliet, to accept the NOM
NATION, and he will from this time on
throw his weight for the whole ticket in
the several counties Of the district. Mr..
Hardy is reported to be very wealthy and
an influential member of the NJ E. church
of Joliet. 1t is expected that these facts
will greatly cut into Brother Cullen'S vote
in Will county and may possibly draw
largely from it in La Sale.

THE NEW IRISH PLATFORM

The following are SAID to be the leading
features Of the new association organized
at the recent Dublin Conference to take
the place of the Land League, which is
dissolved:
/. lfgoverpment for the Irish people
in the full American sense.
2. Protection to Irish industries and GOV.
eminent aid in every way possible for their
development as means for encouraging
Irish agriculture by giving II home mar.
ket, of giving the state strong body Of
artisans, and of making the state, as far as
possible independent OF other nations.
g. The creation OF Irish peasant proprie-
torship, the state to advance the entire sum
of money necessary to enable the peasants
to purchase in fee their own lands, the
money so advanced to be repayable to the
state after sixty.three years in small pay
ments yearly thereafter, with low lnteres:
on the balances.
4. The transfer of the uncultivated lands
Of Ireland by compulsory purchase TO
county boards for reclamation, improve
ment and final sale to the peasantry.
5. The abolition OF the viceroyslty in
Ireland and the substitution therefor Of a
system of local self government, by which
the various county boards of Ireland will
perform for their respective counties all
the local governmental functions necessa
ry, and at present alleged to be under the
viceregsl system performed unjustly or in
adequately by the royal underlings, either
ignorant of the needs Of the people or in
different to them.
6. Land.law reform in such a general
and thorough way as will abolish entail,
primogeniture and all the special features
of the English system that go to foster az
gregatlon Of land title, and the creation Of
landed aristocracies. Increased taxes TO
be put on grass lands, and all covenants
against tllling to be declared void
7. The payment of the Irish party in the
house of commons.
s. The establishment of work,ng-men's
clubs and reading rooms.
0. The creation of new league council
with central committee of forty.elght
members, thirty.two tor the counties and
sixteen for the parliamentary parties.
The objection to the Land League, that
while 1t undertook to look after the condl.
ton OF the tenantry 1t ignored the large
class of farm laborers, is supposed to be
obviated by the new programme in that
part where 1t proposes to revive Irish man
ufacturing Industries and thus provide
new fields of employment to relieve the
superabundance of farm labor.

falsehoods paraded IN paper making

Henry Raab, of Belleville, whom the
Democrats Of Illinois are running as their
