The Present Relations Of the Union Pacifi
and Northern Pacific Railroads.

The Present Relations Of the Union Pacifi,
and Northern Pacific Railroads.
General Passenger Agent Morse, OF
the Union Pacific railroad. has been
interviewed by correspondent of the
| Butte Inter- Mountain and imparts
much valuable information regarding
the present relations between his road
and the Northern Pacific in Montana,
and their probable future course. He
says it is doubtful if there is any wal
of rates between the two roads. A
pool is in accordance with strict busi.
ness principles. and will probably be
entered upon, and though the Union
Pacific would resent any encroachment
on the part Of It's rival and fight it to
the end, they expect to discuss the
situation amicably and arrange all ex-
isting complications. The two roads,
he says, formed pooling agreement
which the Northern Pacific has vic.
lated by refusing to receive freight
from the Utah & Northern at Black.
foot. by seeming reluctance to carry
out the project of 4 third rail from
Butte to Helena, and by failing to join
with the Oregon Short Line at Burnt
River Canyon. Oregon. Being asked
as to the probability Of his road ex-
tending a branch from Dillon to the
National Park, Mr.. Morse said:
''Under ordinary circumstances yes.
But if the government proposes to
farm out the Park to representatives
of the Northern Pacific railroad and to
accord them exclusive grants and
privileges, as it has done, we shall be
in no haste to extend our line in that
direction. Financially, the govern
ment is interested in the Union Pacific
more than in the Northern Pacific, but
if congress proposes to deed over the
Park to Mr.. Rufus Hatch and COM
pany and thus practically give 10 tie
Northern Pacific a monopoly of its
there will be no need of
a second railroad there, for the reason
that it will no longer be free, public |
pleasure ground, and travel in that
direction to large extent will cease.
Congress should and perhaps will rec
,ify the great mistake it has made, or
will at least grant no more exclusive
privileges. The National Park should
,e open to all. It was originally set
side for public not private uses, and
that wise intention is carried out,
lie Dillon branch will soon be an ac-
omplished fact
Regarding the proposed branch from
lien station. down the Jefferson to
ielena, he said the project would be
arried out only in the event Of the ,
Iorthern Pacific refusing to lay a ,
hird rail from Blackfoot to Helena. II

Fort Pembina News.

At about one o'clock ON the morning
of April 18th, a confagration broke ont
in a small building to the rear of "B"
Company quarters. The alarm was given
by our vigilant sentinel and owing to the
promptitude of tie officers and men
they prevented what might have been
serious loss, as the wind was blowing
from the north, and all the buildings
being south of the fire, it would not have
taken many minutes to consume the gar
rison. The heroic endeavors of the
officers aud men deserve the highest
praise.
Our club room is source of much
amusement to the members of both COM
panies. They assemble after retreat and
are entertained right royalty by mine
host Owen Geoghgan. We have repre-
sentatives of all arts here. The art of
self defence is ably conducted by "Jumbo"
seconded by "Puck on Wheels" who by
the way takes knock out in . very
crcditable manner. Gus Hill is also here
with his "keough Clubs" Then we have
the "Flying Duchman" in his wonderful
contortion and double ring act. Also on
our list of performers is found "John
Sullivan the Living Skeleton" the
Candy Man" the "Hard Hitter" and last
but not least ls the "Baby Elephant" j."
During all the performances We are
listening to the strains of sweet music
from our own imported silver string
band"

Editor P1oNEER-ExpREss:

49,
Now that "Huckleberry" and Brother
Young of the editorial fraternity have
shown their sound sense by consolidat.
ing and establishing one strong well-sup-
ported paper instead Of two, half sus.
tained, why cannot our ministerial
brethren and churches consolidate the
four or five small Protestant organizations
into say two strong ones In this way
the work Of Saving souls" could be car
ried on muclnmore efficiently. Some Of
our ministers are not we'll paid. All are
receiving missionary aid from tile East.
Two churches could be made self.sup.
porting ut once, and would not be as bur.
densome to our citizens as all are now.
Besides, the citizens have all "chipped
in" to build the churches already erected.
and many would like very much not to
be troubled with any more such appeals
in the near future. Then there are many
places west of us utterly destitute of the
means of grace and fully as wicked as
Pembina, 80 that if Saving souls" r
really the aim of our ministerial brethren
they need not all linger here on the
borders, but should send some of their
number to the regions beyond.
PAUL, junior.
