From Mr.. Aylesworth we learn that
two new discoveries of coal have been
found about two miles east of the Noun.
tain house, on Trail creek. One by Byam
Bros. & Co. and the other by Hodges &
Smith. He says the quality Of coal is ex-
cellent and the width of one of the veins

SPECULATION.

The furry on Wall Street has driven
for time, out of public minds, the en-
crossing subject of Presidential nomina-
tons, and we are none the looser by it.
Next Tuesday week, the Republican Con-
vention meets in Chicago. So little
change has taken place in the political
situation, that it would take prophet to
determine who the nominee will be.
Blaine and Arthur, the foremost figures
in the strife, are confessedly short of a
majority and it seems to be also an
acknowledged fact. that neither will gain
on their first ballot, as large and con-
sentative portion of the party are in
favor of Senator Edmunds as represent
ing the best element in the party and
they evidently hold the balance OF power.
1t is unquestionably the policy of the Re
publican party to nominate the best man
they have and one upon whom they can
unite and one too with whom they will
not have to make a defensive warfare.
Mr.. Edmunds, so far as his character has
been laid bare to the country, would
seem to be that man and he can be NOM
mated by the union of his own friends,
and that of either the Blaine or Arthur
following, and if it be true, as has been
foreshadowed, that he is second choice;
there would seem to be great hopes for
his nomination, but will it be SO? We
are inclined to think, and if we were to
venture any prediction, it would be that
neither Edmunds, Blaine or Arthur
would be the nominee. Lincoln who
has no other reputation, hut that of being
the son of an illustrious sire and who it
seems with one accord will take second
place, may come in on the home stretch,
as the dark horse; if not him, it will be
some Que who has not figured prom
inently as candidate. The Democrats
SO far seem to be inclined to favor the
old ticket of 1876, but as the convention
is month later, their action may be
shaped by the result of the Republican
Convention, At any rate they stand
better for presidential race than ever
before. There is one consolation, how
ever, that no matter who is elected the
country will survive it and it will not 60
to the demnition bow vows. The politics
of the country are SO shaping themselves
that there will be a large independent
element, which can be counted on that
side, which puts up the best men.

GRAND PROPHISIES.

Senator Ingalls,, IN recent interview ::
sThe great region extending from Mani
toba to the Cult of Mexico and sweeping
across the great basin of the Mississippi
from the Alleghenies to the Rocky
mountains, homogeneous in population,
geographically unified, and with common
interests-politically, socially, and eco
acknowledgements to-day the great
political power of this section is inevita-
BILE. The west will then secure its eman-
cipation from the control of the Atlantic
seaboard, and can assure you that this
is one of the events of the near future.
We will treat these Atlantic and Pacific
appendages with justice; in fact l might
say with more justice than they have
hitherto treated us. One of the elements
of public thought in this great region is
the unifcation of the continent. Under
this American idea the northern bound.
airy will be the Polar sea and the south
ern the Interoceanic canal. The ratiica-
ton of the Mexican treaty was supported
by western senators under the inspira'
ton of this grand idea. This treaty is the
first step to the annexation of that coun'
try. Stop and look at the existing con
ditions. We have but twenty million
acres of arabic lands left. We are ap
preaching that period spoken of by Ma
caulay as dangerous to republican insti
buttons, when the vast migrations t.
these undeveloped will have ceased, ant
when the artizans and toiling masses con
centrated in the large cities will have NJ
outlet for their surplus numbers and NJ
demand for their labor. The policy Of thu
future is territorial acquisition. In fac
1 may say the American idea is hemis
pherical rather than continental. Thu
overflow of population will thus fine
peaceful fields for profitable effort"

The Cooper institute meeting last night
in President Arthur's behalf was success
full in affording him dignified and high
Nv respectable endorsement. The speech
of the occasion, and the one which has a
value in votes, was made by ex-Secretary
Bristow, who showed more than scrip
tural disposition to turn both cheeks to
the enemy. He believes the issues OF
Hayes administration have nothing to
do with those Of the present, and taking
the ground that the president has re-
deemed his name from certain political
"reminiscences, which can do no possible
good to the party or the country at this
time, he declares himself frankly and
forcibly In favor OF his nomination at
Chicago. The MacVeagh letter, it is
needless to say, was fully met and an
swered with the regret certain parts of it
provoked. Mr.. Beecher's speech was
like all his political efforts, witty and
strong. As an endorsement of Arthur
however, it will be but a straw compared
with Bristow's. As to the effect of the
latter and the meeting on the outcome
at Chicago, it must be admitted that
President Arthur can now make some
claim to carrying his state, and has also
brighter prospect among the independ-
ent voters who supported Bristow at Gin
cinnati in 1S76.-Pioneer Press 21st.

circulation asking the county commits
sioners to reconsider their determination
to build additional room for the use of
the county clerk and the needed protec-
ton for the county records. We cannot
but feel that those who are signing the
petition are doing so without seriously
weighing the advantages, nay, We may
say the necessity for it. Any one who
will take the trouble to examine into
the matter will find that the vault in the
county recorders office is now over
crowded with papers and records, which
are of inestimable value. That they
must be preserved and placed in posi-
ton absolutely fire proof, no one will
deny, and the sooner the better. 1t will
be too late when they shall have been
destroyed. They cannot be replaced and
even if they could, it would be at enor-
nous expense If any one imagines that
the cost of erection will add anything to
the burdens of taxation they are mistak-
en-. We venture the assertion that the
time will never come when the taxes Of
this county will be as high as they have
been in the past, or as high as they are
now. The last financial statement
showed that Gallatin county was practi-
cally out of debt. While it is true we
have bonded indebtedness, the value of
county buildings at even low estimate
and the cash on hand in the treasury
more than made an offset. Again the
money put into public buildings is not
thrown away: it is represented in the
property. Bozeman will forever remain
a county seat, no matter how county
lines may change. The interests in and
around it will always make it the lead
ing place in Gallatin county, and every
dollar put in public buildings adds that
much more importance to our county
seat. We have pointed with pride to
| strangers in our midst at our public
school edifices and court house, and they
have opened wide their eyes at the ex-
hibion of public 81 irit and liberality.
Shall we stop short Of making them what
they ought to be? Shall we protest
against the wisdom and foresight Of our
county commissioners, who realize the
want of Irore room and additional pro-
| lection against the loss of valuable prop
| erty, when it can be done at trif1ing
expense? We cannot but feel that it is
shortsighted policy and we trust that b.
fore signing the petition you will weigh
all the circumstances. We have been
shown plat of the proposed new build
ing to be erected on the corner of the
court house grounds, east of the court
house. The building will be AZ feet, 3
inches in height with width of 26 feet
with square cutoff on the southeast
corner for the entrance, then into yes
thule, with door leading into private
office 6x15 4, and also into main office
22X22 s: in the rear of that an ABSOLUTELY
fire proof vault 12x24, the walls of the
vault to be 80 inches in thickness and o
the balance % inches. The arrangement
of the rooms is very convenient and am
pie. We repeat it is necessity and thai
now is an opportune time to build. Ma
terial is cheap and the building can bt
erected at low cost. 1t adds to tht
value of property, to the beauty, to thu
convenience of business, and to the Ger
tain protection of records.

Bismarck vs.. YanktOn.

The supreme court met at Yankton.
May the 23d, at 800 o'clock and rendered
a decision reversing the court below In
the capital commission case. Justices
Hudson, Church and Palmer assent and
Justice Edgerton dissents. The decision
declares the act Of the commission valid
and is in favor of the claims of Birmarck
to the capital. The attorneys for the
people Immediately preferred an appeal
to the United States supreme court,
which operates as snpersedeas and pre-
vents the removal of the capital to Bis
marck pending the decision of the United
States court, which takes at least two
wears. The case has been argued on both
sides, the chief point Of the controversy
being the power of the territorial legisla-
ture to delegate its power toa committee
of men, outside of that body, who acted
after the adjournment of the legislature.
After hearing the argument the supreme
court decided to grant stay Of proceed
