New Time Schedule.

The new time schedule of the Montans
Union Railway will go into effect October
II. What changes have been made in the
running time is not yet known. But it il
said that shorter time will be made be
tween Butte and Helena. and that the
Northern Pacific Railway desires to do
away with stopping over at Garrison.
While they are making the changes they
should not lose sight of the fact that the
merchants of Butte desire a morning train
to the capital. Manager Blackwell was
seen by a MINER reporter yesterday and
expressed himself freely that he would be
glad to give q morning train to the people
of Butte if it lay in his power to do so. He
said that the entire change in regard to
changing the time card lay with Mr.. Oaks,
of the Northern Pacific Railway.

 The Windham county republicans did well on Tuesday in nominating for sheriff Charles B. Pomeroy of Windham.
 Dr. Malcolm R. Griswold, the democratic nominee for comptroller, was voted for as from Stafford. Thus is Holland county twice hOnored this year in the selection of candi- dates for state offices. Dr. Griswold has for several years voted in Hartford, but, we hear, proposes this year to vote in Stafford. His political strength. aside from that legitimate ly resulting from his ability, and geniali ty of nature, comes from his affiliations with the Knights of Labor.
 As was expected, John R, Buck of Hartford was on Thursday last renominated for con- gresham, unanimously, and without ballot.

For the former office DE. Allsop, of Middletown, came with in four votes of nomination. For the latter Charles N. Allen, of Putnam had majority on the informal ballot, but withdrew after that, and Griswold was nominated.

TMERE is Q dispute concerning the meaning of the law concerning the snaring of game, passed last winter. The first section of the new law begins No person, not the owner or occupant under lease of the lands upon which said birds shall have been, nor mem- bsr of the family of such owner or occupant shAll sell" etc. The sportsmen read the en- actmsnt as saying that no person, not even those specified, may sell, etc. This is a far fetched translation, yet is seriously argued as the right one. There can be but one mean ing, that is, tolexcept the person owning the Land. who may take game in his own way in proper season, on his own premises.

THR dedication of Geo. W.

It IS known that Mir. B. took but $500 with him to Canada, that he was frugal liver, and not an outside speculator. He was in the habit of transferring assets from one institution to another to cover losses and shortages, and the ascsrtaining as to where these losses now be- long and who has profted by the course of Nr.

Con- CHEvEs, iu his prohibition address, last Friday evening, in reply to questions from person on the platform, said that the person who asserted that prohibition had been carried in the southern states by democrats and republicans working shoulder to shoul- der and that there was no third party in those states, was either knave or fool, but in his explanation following, said that the amend ments had been so carried but that prohibit ton party was now organized, as the demo-
 cratic officials of that state could not be de pended upon to enforce the prohibitory laws. But in Kentucky he claimed that the third party idea was making great progress, 3O,OO0 votes had been boiled at it's last election, and at the next it was intended to carry the state. With such splendid progress, politically, Ken lucky ought to be far in advance of Georgia and Mississippi, where the party is of newer organization, though the speaker neglected to say whether this was the'case. With bourbon Kentucky captured, it would seem that the backbone of the giant evil must be fractured.

INDIANAPOLIS. JAM 80.
The volume of trade in January fell below ex-
pectations, which doubtless had been set too
high, yet in many departments the sales aggre-
gate better than in the corresponding month of
1885 Take produce-large quantities have been
sold, but the prices ranged so low that to
realize small amount of profit the
sales must necessarily be large The
provision market has been more active than last
year. Dry goods men have sold more goods, the
same is true with leather dealers and druggists
Hide men are experiencing dull times, and there
is a slight lull in the iron market The -four
market is improved somewhat in Tone but there
is no marked increase in demand The impress
sion prevails, however that February. should
the country roads remain passible, will show a
handsome increase in business, as stocks of
country stores are light, and merchants show a
disposition to purchase if conditions continue
favorable.
