Information being asked ON the question of
South Sea Islanders and answer being forth
coming Representative Thurston said that he
considered 1t very remarkable that the Minister
Of Interior was not present when items in that
department were before the Assembly. He did not
think it was treating the Assembly with courtesy.
The members wanted to know and they had a
right to know full particulars in this matter. He
did not want to put the Government in the posi-
ton in which they were last time, and keep these
poor people waiting here again. This question
was not one on which there need be any guessing,
The Government knew Just how many Iaborers
we're here and they should know the expense per
he I'd to return them, He moved that this item
be not passed till the House got dsinite informa-
ton from the Minister Of Interior.
Representative Brown referred 20 page 80 OF the
report of the Minister OF Interior and showed that
the cost as estimated by the Pacific Nav. Co. per
Elsiaore was $50 per adult and SIS per minor.
Hon. j. ). Walker, the Auditor General stated
that he believed the ElsiHore was chartered by
the Government to take the people to their island
homes and then return hither with cargo of coal
from Newcastle n. S. w, for the Government.
Rep. Brown said if that was the plan adopted
he did not see that the Government needed any
money for South Sea Islanders. 1t looked to him
as though there was an attempt to get cargo Of
coal in under the item of South Sea Islanders
tLauchter.)
This revelation did not seem to be appreciated
by the Ministers present and no further opposition
being made the item was passed over until the
Minister OF Interior was present. The Committee
now rose and reconvened into Assembly, Hon. ].
S. Walker in the chair. Hon. A. 5. Clegtorn re-
ported back the action had asked leave to sit
again. Report approved and request granted and
at 40 O'Clock the Assembly adjourned until ~

Government members arrived, from the Palace or
elsewhere, they coming in in a body.
Representative kalua, on suspension of the rules
presented, from the special committee, the draft
OF the reply TO the Royal message, as follows:
"SIRE:-In accordance with resolution of the
Legislative Assembly, the Honorable President
nominated committee to respond 10 Your Males
tvs Royal message. The honor has been conferred
on us To- present Your Majesty with the reply of

"On behalf of the Legislative Assembly we
thank Your Majesty for this special Royal mes
sage. Your Majesty desire has been made known
to us that the Legislative Assembly eoonomize in
the appropriation of moneys from the items sub
mitted by Your Majesty Ministers, and that Your
Majesty especially recommends retrenchment TO
begin with the civil list.
sThis is great measure in the opinion of the
Assembly, and especially commands itself as being
proper that the national expenditures should be
Ieanced to an equality With the anticipated re-
ceptsi 1t would however, be better still if the
tlonal expenditures could be reduced TO less than
period.
Therefore the Legislative Assembly takes heed
OF Your Maiesty's recommendations, and will act
on them IN good faith with the assurance that pro-
gress viii be made in this undertaking for the ben

promotion Of Your Majesty's wish, which has been
submitted for the consideration Of this Legislative
Assembly. We are Your Maiestys obedient citi-

reply was ordered to present the same to His Maj

The En- g,ineers.

Capt. Sears of the engineer corps in
formed Mr.. w. G. Conrad last week that
the appropriation for the improvement of
the upper river will not be available IN
time to commence work this season. He
will send his assistant engineer to Fort
Benton the latter part of February Or early
in March to see what will be required, and
as soon as bis report is made he will send
out men and material to 60 on with the
work. IF it is possible to secure men here
for some of the work they will be employ
ed, SO we may expect the dredge to be in
operation early in the spring.
Capt. Sears is comparatively young
man. He graduated from the military
academy in 1867, in the same class rs Capt.
Mcguire, who was formerly engineer
officer in this department, and j. said to De
an unusually competent officer.

ROADS THIS SIDE THE RANGE.
The Good Work Being Done by Meagher
County Commissioners.

George Watson, of Belt, arrived in the
city Friday morning and furnishes us with
the following information relative to the
action of the Meagher county commission
ers in making ample appropriations Tor
the roads on this side of the mountains.
That particular section has never before
received much attention from the commits
sioners, but now they favor the construc-
ton of good roads. Two Of their number
visited Belt last spring, we believe, to look
at the bridge site, and the result OF that
visit was an appropriation of about $9,ooo
for road purposes-$3,000 of this sum for
the construction of the road down Belt
creek; 81, 900 for the bridge at Castner's;
81, ,l99 for grading up Belt creek to the
mouth of Otter creek, and the balance for
grading up Otter creek. The road at
Charley Martins has been changed, SO
there is now an easy grade over the hill.
When the work now progressing is COM
pleted. which it will be this fall. it will
make a splendid road from Fort Benton
to Neihart, with no hills of consequence
intervening except the one at Belt creek
bridge. Superintendent Barker, OF the
Hudson Mining company, with view to
have the crossings of the creek put in good
condition, offers to furnish the lumber if
outside parties will come forW ard and sub
scribe enough to construct the bridges,
| this not being contemplated in the apprO-
priation. --z
Now the people living in that section
are desirous that the commissioners OF
Choteau county would lay out "a road from
the, Meagher county line to Belt creek
bridge. A petition to this effect was be-
fore the June meeting of the commission
ers, but no action was taken because the
netition did not contain the required mum
Der of signatures. It is but fair, while
Meagher county people are doing this
much. that Choteau county should do It's
share and lay out the road as requested
The distance is short and the cost will be
insignificant. After awhile, when ranches
are taken up in that section, it will not be
so easy to have county road established
over this shors line. Little, if any, WORK
will be required on it.

INDIAN RAIDS.
The Piegans Have 200 Horses Stolen by
Crows or B1oods.

Authentic information has been recelv-
ed to the effect that Indians, possibly
Crows. have recently raided the Piegans,
taking from them fully 200 head of horses
and that fifty young Piegans are on thelr
way to the Grow country to retallate. rms
information as regards the stealing OF the
horses is true, but we are inclined 10 the
belief that the stealing was done by the
Bloods. notwithstanding the fact that tney
are closely allied to the Piegans BY ties OF
affinity. A few weeks ago there was a
small party of Grows in this section, put
we hardly think that they went as far as
the agency of the Blaekfeet. we nave
not heard that.any Indians have crossed
The Missouri with that number OF norses
anywhere in this vicinity, nor have we
learned that any of the agency Piegans
have been on the warpath this season.
