There appears to be general drifting
of statesmen, politicians, capitalists,
stock jobbers, journalists and other
excursionists towards the wonderful
region of the Yellowstone Park, in the
far Northwest It will not be long after
the completion of the Northern Pacific
Railway when that now almost unknown
and uninhabited corner of our vast
national domain will be settled up,
developed and be infused with all the
elements of thrift and commerce

Several big telegraph projects have
been started, as a result o. the existing
strike, to build new lines to compete with
the Western Union. Such projects are
very easy of conception but the raising Of
tie millions OF money necessary to carry
them ont is not so easy; nor does the
public feel sure that the new competitors
would not pool their issues" with exist
ing lines TO keep up rates. We need
cheaper telegraphic rates in this country.
but We apprehend that nothing short of a
government telegraph in connection with
the postal department will ever secure
them to us

Pertinent To these figures l. that
portion Of Governor Crosby's report
relating To the wealth and indebted
ness OF the various counties of Mon
tana which we quote. Last year,
lss2i showed II total assessment Of
So. III 81, an increase of S9.l1O,5ll
over the preceding year but the in
crease for the present year, not yet
fully comptt led, is greater still, and
already shows "a total oil $4,000, 800.
This is greater than the assessment
returned by Colorado for 1881 by nearly
four millions, aud nearly double that
nf the state of Nevada last year. But
handsome ~ this showing is, it fails to
40 the territory justice, for it does not
include dellar for the mines, whose
net income alone is taxed, but whose
market value would exceed 81, 900, 100,
and carry up a total OF wealth OF $780,
ODl,O0O.
Ia connection with its wealth, it is
proper to state Montana's indebted
uess. The territory does not owe a
collar, and the aggregate Indebtedness
other thirteen counties is under 81 ,OOO,-
zoo, mostly incurred for the erection
9f court HOUSES aud other public build
lugs, and for the construction of roads
aud bridges. II must lie remembered
that the price OF all building material,
has been excessively high, and so are
the costs OF administering justice, sup
porting the poor and insane. The
showing, for IA new country, where
everything had To be created at high
prices for all labor and material, and
high rates of interest on all indebted
mess, is certainly creditable. Only
one county has ever made default in
the payment of interest on its bonded
debt, and that reproach will soon be
wiped out.

CLEVELAND, O., November 3.-Bishop
Gilmour, OF this Catholic Diocese, furnishes
the following for the Associated Press: In
answer to widespread report that certain
mus had left Cleveland convent, taking
with them 10000, the undersigned would
respectfully state: 1t is true that at three
different times during the psst year three
nuns have at their own request been re-
leased from their VOWS and returned 10
their families. They have incurred no
censure. There Is no unkindness between
them and the sisterhood in which they
were. They were simply dissatitfed with
the religious lie, aud after full under
standing with the Bishop they were re-
leased from their'vows and returned to the
world. They took with them no money,
nor bonds, nor valuables Of any kind, nor
did they seek to.
There is trouble relative to the tenure Of
St Joseph's Hospital, commonly known as
the Orphan Asylum. This property was
bought by public subscription Of Catholics
OF the Diocese OF Cleveland, but instead OF
being put In tue name OF the Bishop, as
dire cted by the laws OF tho CDurch, cor
poraIion under the name OF St. Joseph's
Hospital was formed. The management
OF funds yearly raised for the support Of
.he orphans not being satisfactory to the
Bishop, he demanded that the iunds be
placed under his control, as also the asy-
Ium, which had been built by collections
made throughout the diocese. This was
refused by few OF the nuns, who were
officers OF the corporation.
The three nuns who left were not OF
these. The matter has been referred to
the courts OF the Church, where 1t will be-
settled. The departure Of the three nuns
had nothing to do with this trouble rela-
live to the tenure o; the asylum property
or management OF orphans funds, These
nuns lefE simply because they were dissat-
istlsd with the religious life, and between
them and Bishop or community which
they left, there is not particle Of unkind
laeling These Sisters left at different
times during this past year, the fret last
spring, who is nov with her brother and
family in Los Angeles; the second nearly
three months ago, and who Is now with
hor father and mother in Tiffin, OHIO; tho
third is at present living with her friends
