Movement in Kansas City Land.

CHICAGO, March 26.-The Times special
from Kansas City says: The heavy rain OF
yesterday and Saturday has started tremen-
dous landslide on the bluff facing the Union
depot, which threatens to work incalculable
injury to property along Bluff street for
three and . half squares. A large portion
of the cable road, railroad yards and several
factories are threatened with destruction.

A CORRESPONDENT of the Independent
asks why, If the Northern Pacific Company
cannot acquire any mineral lands without
making non mineral proof, there should be
Z demand for An act Of Congress on the mat
ter. Because the present condition exists
simply under the ruling of Commissioner
Sparks. The Secretary of Interior has not
even sustained it. This ruling is liable to
be reversed any day and the Railroad Com
pany will leave nothing undone to secure it.
An act of Congress would be law interpret
ing to the Courts its own construction of its
own act, now held to be vague, uncertain
and ambiguous. The Courts would doubt
less respect the Interpretation. That's Why.

ceed Sparks, but he has finally appointed
Strother NJ. Stockslager, who has been acting
Commissioner. Mr.. Stockslager is an Indi.

by the Indiana delegation three years ago
against Sparks for the Commissionership.
Sparks beating him, he took the next place
under him and has held it.. As Acting Com
missioner he has been so reticent that his
views On the land questions are almost un.
known. Now that he is appointed, devel-

DISTRICT COURT.

The resignation of Judge McLeary left
this, the Second, Judicial District, vacant.
Court was set for Mlssoula some two or three
weeks ago. Chief Justice Mcconnell went
down, disposed Of eighteen cases and ad-
iourned the Court. Court term is set for
Deer Lodge next Monday, April 2; Terrific
rial grand and petit jurors summoned; and
the Calendar made up. And yet the District
IL vacant.
However, it is stated semi officially that
Court will certainly begin here on that day.
The Supreme Court has been holding off
making the assignment to give Judge Lid
dell an opportunity to be present, which he
has expected to be able to be by the LIST OF
April. Matters have come TO 3 point now
when it would be unwise to wait longer, and
the Supreme Court is called to convene in
Helena to morrow for the purpose of making
assignments. This would enable the Judge
assigned here to open Court next Monday.
We think there should be no question now
about assigning Judge DeWolfe to this Dis
trict. Judge McLeary stood in his way be
fore with the backing of seniority prece-
dent that it did not seem we'll to break
without his consent. He remained less than
q week and never opened Court In the Dis
trict. 1t is known Judge DeWolfe preferred
this District and that this Distric: preferred
him. If Judge Bach now yields his claims,
aud he doubtless will, none other has any.
Therefore, whether Judge Liddell is present
or not. the proper thing for the Gnnr: to do
tomorrow Is to assign Judge DeWolfe to
this District. He has made very favorable
impression at Miles. Eminent citizens spoke
of him last week in the most unqualified
terms of approval, and the District would re-
gret to lose him. But he is best equipped
for the character of very important civil
cases that occur in this District, and here he
should be placed.
That he declined to leave his Miles City
term, where he was holding Court in Dis
trict to which he was duly assigned, to hold
the term at Mssoula in q District to which
he had not been assigned, although he had
desired it, is altogether to bis credit. If be
shall be assigned here, the civil business of
this District which could not be reached by
Judge Galbraith last term, will be pretty
we'll disposed of this term, and there will
probably not be many criminal cases to oc-
cupy the Court. There is no question with
us that Butte will soon find 1t was . mistake
to remove the U. S. Court there. It will so
materially interfere with and prolong the
%a.,,, <horo that Rntta will ho mora doeir0na
of getting rid of it than it was to obtain 1t.
Meantime, however, our calendar will be
cleared. #M.. :.-.. ..m.
Owing to the circumstance of no Judge
being assigned, we omit publication Of the
calendar until next week. m~...".~

A PROMISING PROSPECT.

ie1cE ON rrioay evening from i. ..
Billings, formerly OF this city, dated
Butte, Montana, that contains news
valuable to every citizen OF tho Snake
and Clearwater countries. The letter is
selEexplanatory, which We have pcrmis.
sion to publish in full:
"BurrE, Montana, July 2, 1883.
DR.. J. B. Morris,
DEAR SlR: In conversation with
a party, who just came over the o. s. L.
from Weiser, I was told party Of U. P.
surveyors had just arrived at that place
to run location survey from there to
Lewiston. The right Of way men were
with them. The surveyors favored the
Snake river route on account Of easy
grade, but the company favored the
route through by White Bird and
Camas Prairie OF account Of more pat
ronage to the road. The surveyors will
start as soon as they receive their
instructions from the company which
route they are to take. l SEQ BY the
TELLER to-day that the u. P.'s time
expires with this year. 1t may be they
mean business. Yours Truly,
BILLINGS"
From the above we take it that the
Union Pacific are beginning to realize
their situation. As we stated few
weeks ago, to hold the right of way Of
the Snake river route something must
be done this fall, as the expiration Of
their time is limited. Five years is the
statutory time granted any railroad
corporation to hold survey, and the
Snake river survey from Burnt river to
Lewiston was made in the summer Of
1888, under the supervision Of Engineer
I. A. Clark. The preliminary was
completed aud the right Of way secured,
and from this fact alone VIC have great
faith in the company's present move, for
We feel confident should they do any.
thing more with this route that il will
mean business. They no doubt have
held the survey with avowed determine.
ton. Two years ago the company
refused on offer OF several thousand
dollars from the government for the
profile Of the survey and expressed the
desire that they would use it themselves
and that under no consideration would
they dispose of it. The company have
always sent intelligent and skillful
engineers 10 the field, both on the
Clearwater and Snake river routes, who
have reported favorably at headquarters,
and it is not likely that railroad com.
panies being legally advised Of these
advantages, knowing that an admissible
route lies within our boundaries, tapping
the expansive agricultural and mineral
districts that it will traverse, will quash
and destroy rights that will benefit them.
1t is true We have been, as VIC may term
it, ignored to certain extent by railroad
companies. but We have the country,
that, nobody can deny "a country that
is productive in the extreme, both in
cereals and mineral and worthy in every
respect, and this the U. p. are fully
aware Of. We trust the contents OF Mr..
Billings letter will prove true, which
will gladden. the heart of every citizen Of
Neg Perez and Idaho counties, who have
been striving with untiring energy for
years to accomplish this end.
