The communication from j. SCHUYLER
Crosby, governor of Montana, presented to
the senate to-day by Mr.. Saunders, chair
man OF the senate committee on territories.
relates generally to the preservation of the
Yellowstone National park, but is devoted
particularly to Il caustic revision of the
schemes OF Rufus Hatch, who, it is alleged,
aims to secure for his own exclusive benefit
the use of the park, and TO turn the Greater
part of IL into vast private cattle
ranch. Governor Crosby begins his
letter with a few words OF personal
explanation, in which he says. Mr.. Hatch
arraigns me by name for regarding the in.
terests OF the territory which / have the
honor to preside over, and accuses me of
posing as a public reformer. | cannot re-
tort the accusation. Mr.. Hatch has
achieved certain sort of national reputa.
ton as monopolist and Spectator, but il
would be irony to call these things 70.

says: The issue between Hatch and my.

OF the dedicatory statute. a public park and
pleasure.ground for the benefit and on
Jpyment OF the people, or whether it shall

the plans and alleged purposes of Hatch
