A RAILROAD TO THE NATIONAL
PARK.

A St. Paul special dispatch to the Chicago
Times, dated Jan. liz, gives the following I'M
portant bit of information
Six prominent capitalists of St. Paul and
Minneapolis, including Senator Window and
j. B. Glifllan, of Minneapolis, O.. Il. Bly,,
of Bismarck, and Mr.. Hobart, OF the North
ern Pacific, have agreed with the Northern
Pacific to build a MISUNDERSTANDING guage-
from the point on the Northern Pacific near
est the Park, to the geysers and National
Yellowstone Park, or to speak more definite
ly, 40 miles of road outside of the Govern
ment Park reservation and forty miles with
in it, the cost to be twenty thousand dollars
per mile, and allowing for contingencies
nearly two millions, and sixty thousand dol
lars to be put up by the six as assurance OF
good faith, and the Northern Pacific will
then furnish the money to build and equip
the road, taking q mortgage as security. The
six men will build a large hotel. being as
sured by the Government OF the monopoly
therein. A large influx of summer visitors
is expected annually.
1t is not unlikely that the statement is
founded on fact. The time can not he far
in the future when the great National Park
will be, the first in favor as a summer resort
in the United States, o%utranking all resorts
in the East. 1t is only in the last two or
three years that tourists could enter the Park
in perfect safety, and the difficulty of reach
ing it has been so great that but comparative
ly few have ventured. But with a railroad
entering the very heart of the geyser country
there will be a thousand visitors during the
season for every one under existing circum-
stances. If the gentlemen above mentioned
can secure a monopoly of the hotel business
within the confines of the Park, and pro-
cure the construction of q railroad to the
same, they are, without doubt, on the royal
road to fortune. We think, however, it
would be a g~revious wrong on the part of
the Government to give any persons, or
company, such an exclusive privilege, as
they could, and being mortals, would,
charge exorbitant rates and in other ways
render it unpleasant for the tourists. The
fact that the annual number of visitors to
Niagara Falls is on the decline can be at
tributed to the inordinate greed of the resi-
dents in business, who seem to think that
they live for no other purpose than to
''bleed" tourists. This status of affairs
should not obtain in Wonderland, but it will
Enthusiastically if this company, or any other,
secures a monopoly of the leading business.

THE Washington correspondent of the
Inter Mountain says Maginnis is one of the
prolific members--in bills-and gives the fol-
loving resume Of those introduced by our
Delegate: He keeps q sharp eye for the in
terests of some Of his constituents at least.
He has introduced a bill to pay Paul hcCor-
mick for loss incurred by reason Of change
made by the officers of the United States as
to the place of delivering wood after the
contract was made. This calls for 81, 900.
Another bill is to pay Capt. A. G. Girard,
Assistant Surgeon, and David q. Brotherton,
y. y. a., for the loss of their personal effects
by fire, at Fort Keogh, Montana, December
10, 1878. The Captains claim is for So, 1886,

NO RACE DISTINCTION.

The Herald unites with the RIVER PRESS
the negro as far as school privileges are con
cerned, as will be seen by the following edi-
torial from saturdays issue:
Elsewhere in this Territory no objection
that we have ever heard of has interposed to
prevent the attendance of children of colored
parentage at the public schools. In this city
alone, tor the past several years, have the
school authorities felt it incumbent upon
them to yield to the prejudice Of the few
who have demanded the exclusion from our
public schools OF colored pupils and their
separate instruction. Now that sickness has
taken three of the five colored children from
the race school, it is proposed to deny the
other two instruction except as it can be
found convenient for their teacher-Who has
had part Of the pupils sent to her from one
of the regular schools-to attend to them at
some irregular and uncertain hour Of the day.
We submit now, in all soberness, that the
time has come for prejudice to be relegated
to the rear. and the two or three, or what
| ever number Of colored pupils there may be.

RI MONOPOLY.

From what we can gather from our Terri
torial exchanges it seems to be established as
q fact that the Northern Pacific and Utah &
Northern railroad companies have come to
an agreement by the terms of which they
parcel out the Territory between them and
pool the profits accruing. The arrangement
is, we believe, substantially as follows:
~ The N. P. will withdraw its projected
branch to Butte; % the US N. will ex-
tend it's branch from Silver Bow to the
mouth of Little Blackfoot and stop; 81 the
u. & N. will extend its trunk line from Dill.
Ion north to the Three Forks and stop; ca
the U. & N. to supply the N. P, this year
with 90, 900 tons Of rails to be delivered at
Little Blackfoot and Three Forks. By this
nice little arrangement the Utah & Northern
will control the Bntte traffic aud that of the
West Side, while the Northern Pacific will
have the Helena business and that Of the
East Side. The terms az to the proper divis-
ion of the prof of course have been agreed
upon. II can be readily seen that this plan
gives these roads a monopoly in their re-
spective territories and will allow them to
charge whatever rates they see fit. The suf-
fering public can have no redress except to
come to Benton and get cheap goods, deliv-
ed by river, Gods highway, on which pools
and combinations are unknown. In discus
sing the subject the Neu Northeast says:
This simply means districting off the Ter
ritory, and giving to. each company a monop-
oily of business, with rates to suit itself IN the
district it traverses. To break this requires
the construction of a new road or roads,
whereas if competitive roads were built and
a pool then made, we could reasonably antic-
ipate a break of the pool sometime. To
Butte, and Helena especially, this combina-
ton is q disaster. Butte will have but one
route to ship machinery and supplies. Hell
ena will have no inside margins On rates
and with but one road thereto Benton will
have great commercial advantage in supply
ing the rapidly developing north.
This impending danger shows clearly the
advantage. Benton enjoys by its location at
the head Of navigation on the Missouri river,
The river will be a perpetual check to rail
road monopoly, and will enable our mer-
chants at all time to undersell those of all
other towns in the Territory. 1t will insure
to Benton the trade of Northern Montana,
rapidly developing, and render it beyond
doubt the commercial metropolis of the
Northwest. While Helena, Butte, Deer
Lodge and the West Side generally are agi-
tated over this question, Benton looks upon
the majestic stream that flows by her and is
as serene Is you please. 'Rah for the Big

WE publish to-day an interview with Mr..
T. c.. Power chiefly in reference to the im-
provement of the Missouri river, q subject
of vital importance to Montana and more
particularly to Bentonand surrounding coun-
try. Some action should be taken at once to
impress upon Delegate Maginnis the necessi-
ty of working for a liberal appropriation for
the Upper Missouri. The initial steps in the
movement should be taken at Benton and
we hope our people will be equal to the
emergency. If there is one spark Of life re-
naming in the Benton Board Of Trade q
meeting should be called at once to inaugu-
rate a movement in favor of an appropr;a-
ton for the upper river. If the Board of
Trade is beyond all hope of resurrection let q
meeting of the citizens be called for this pur-
pose. The matter is of too great importance
to neglect. Helena and other towns of the
Territory should do likewise as they are in
terested az we'll as Benton in the matter Of
cheap freight rates.
