TIE diversion Of $4,000 by the Commits
sioner of the General Land Office for Gov.
eminent surveys in Montana this year is
lust about enough to be useless. II, as we
presume, this is exclusive Of the appropria-
ton for the Surveyor Generals Office, it Is
not q fourth of the least possible amount
that would be required for survey of the
great northern reservation alone which has
recently been thrown open to settlement.
If it includes the appropriation for the Sur
veyor Generals Office, it practically stops
field work. Such economy is penny wise
and pound foolish, and is . hindrance and
bar to immigration and settlement. Where
5 that SIS. 900 Sparks sent out with 4 limita-
ton Of rates that prevented a single bid ever
being made by surveyors? Speed the day
when the ~''surplus" will not be accumulated
and increased because the government will
not let 60 Of . dollar it can help even for the
most urgent necessities of the people.

QUITE = change has come over the House
within the past week under the drive of
Springer, Cox and others in relation to the
Springer Omnibus bill, the division Of Dako-
tn and the admission of the northwestern
Territories. Springer is willing to let Da-
kota determine for herself the question of
division, add then pass an enabling act I'M
der which they may frame constitutions md
apply for admission. he goes further and
provides a general rule under which any
Territory may hereafter apply for admission,
and as it is precisely the method adopted by
Montana : few years ago, and whose appli.
cation for admission is now pending, 1t
would seem the proper thing to except Mon
tana from the Omnibus bill, and admit us
without further delay. We have gone
through all the forms prescribed in the
Omnibus bill; we have conformed to the
rule proposed to be applied to Territories
hereafter. How many times must we roll
over to get the cracker? Consideration of
the question Is now deferred till Jan. 18th.
Mr.. Toole should press his bill nov.

Poker by Telegraph.

New YORK, Dec. 16.-By an agreement
of a local sporting man, \ peculiar game of
draw poker was played to-day. Three men,
one at Syracuse, one At Louisville, and .
third at Boston, agreed to play : $50 jackpot
by telegraph. The New York man, in the
presence of witnesses, dealt the cards and
then telegraphed each man what his hand
was. Boston ''opened' up the "downs''
with . pair of jacks, Louisville stood with a
pair Of sevens, and Syracuse took . complete
book. All this was done after long waits
and notices by wire Of the play. Boston's
draw helped the hand with = pair of deuces,
Louisville's two sevens received an aid. The
five draw by Syracuse resulted in three smil-
ing queens. Boston, after the draw had been I
telegraphed all around, laid down, Louis.

IT is REPORTED it is contemplated to
organize at Birmingham, Alabama, the
nucleus of a new party, composed Of BUSH
ness men and manufacturers They say the
"Solid South" is = thing Of the past; that
the admission Of the new Territories will
settle that, and new party lines must be
arranged. The principles Of the new party
will be protection and fair elections. This
will compel the Bourbons to appeal to the
colored people for their support, and thus
the racial problem will settle itself. It is
said q committee OF prominent Southerners
called on General Harrison, Tuesday, and
it is thought something at least of the plan
was suggested to him, that be might not bar
its development by a renewal Of the old
carpet-bag system.

DELEssEPs had been misinformed about
the Panama Canal bonds. The subscription
was almost . total failure, and there is great
probability now that the Company will be
forced into bankruptcy. The French Gov.
eminent would like to protect Its small
%bondholders who hold millions of stock in
the Company, but has been committed for
years to the proposition that the DeLessep's
scheme should be and continue strictly !
private one. The world needs q canal across
the Isthmus. The United States has done
nothing to toward the Nicaragua enterprise
and seems even 0 to be obstructIng an
American Company that desires to build by
thst route. The intimation is that the trans.
continental railroads have too many friends
in Congress. It were better the American
enterprise should receive favorable legislation
At once and the great project be pushed to
consummation.

Louis James and Marie Wainwright appear
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday next in
" Othello,i Much Ado About Nothing and
"As You Like It." Mr.. James is one of the
most accomplished tragedians of the day By
many he is ranked next to Booth. His method
is the highest order and his Interpretation of
Shakespeare moves upon plane Of excellence
that puts him III the front rank of foremost
dramatic artists. Marie Wainwright, his beau-
with lovers of the Shakespearean drama
as is Mr.. James. Her success has
run parallel with that of Mr.. james Her
Desdemona, Beatrice and Rosalind are held by
the most severe critics to rise superior to Mary
audersons interpretations, and to challenge
column review of the merits of the lady and an
analysis of the art of both, concludes at is
not that we admire Mr.. James less but Miss
Wainwright more. He is one of very few who
stand little below the highest notch of all. In
her personation one feels q personal interest.
If Modjeska had as clear command of English
as Miss Wainwright, we might place her higher,
but given that the tongue is familiar, in such
parts tRosalind, Beatrice, Desdemona) the latter
surely has the advantage. In these days ofmedi-
ocre acting, of mOnotonous muSh, of affectation
in all kinds of playing, of utter superficial
ity, the acquisition of an actress of the Ameri-
can stage to whom we can reasonably look for g
revival of the delightful comedies of Shakes
peare, of legitimate heroine acting cannot be
overestimated" The San Francisco CnH is

Clunie Opera House.

Salvini presents his entertainment for the lasl
time tonight. His trained animals are marvels
in performance. The scene in which coach
ing party comes to grief by wheel running of
the spindle, is a bit of dramatic effect that is
irresistible. The coachman tossed from his seat
seizes his horses head, the footman runs afte1
the lost wheel, and next brings wine TO revive
the lady in the coach, and finally he sets the
wheel; the coachman Temounts the box, the
occupant of the vehicle resumes her place and
the psrty drive off in high feather. The goat
that walks ball. is wonderful performer
as also is the climbing log and the little poodle
that plays the part of prisoner in criminal
trial. The monkeys are inimitable in their
performances, and greatly delight the little folks
By their assumption of human character.

The Board of City Trustees met yesterday
morning, all the members present.
The engineer of the water works reported
&c, ,363, 900 gallons of water pumped for the week
ending October 18th.
The Mayor said the railroad company had
agreed to haul broken granite for the levee
from Folsom, for 81 so per ton. This is one-half
of the former rate.
Trustee Ryan was in favor of raising the Front
street leyee three feet higher, and favored
strengthening the entire system.
Trustee Wolff said he thought every dollar
spent on the Ieyees added that much to city
Mayor Gregory agreed with him, and it is So fe
to say that the leyee system will be well cared
Colonel ]. B. Wright, the local superintend-
ent, asked permission for the southern Pacific
Railroad Company to widen the north levee
ject of this is to lay a couble railroad track
which is required on account of the increasing
business. MIR. Wright stated this would have u
tendency to greatly strengthen the leyee, and
he was granted permission, III accordance with
an ordinance already in the books, TO proceed
with the work.
| Judge II. 0. Beatty, who was present, said the
total capacity OF thepumps was 5,000,G00 gallons
per day, which, IN his opinion, Wa, sufficient
Tor city of $1,000 population.
y long discussion took place between Judge
Beatty and the Trustees, SIS to the capacities Of
the pumps and what was required for the city
supply.
Engineer Bassett, being asked about enlarging
| the pipes, said he was of the opinion that if
they were enlarged there would be greater
| slippage or waste of water Ii the pipes were
| enlarged it woulc cause thepumps to hammer
much harder t. az st present 70 the danger OF
! shaking down the building
Mayor Gregory said that he had given the
| matter thorough consideration and had also Sc
cured the opinions of able mechanics who
| agreed that better supply OF water could be
] had if the Stevens pump were enlarged, but
| this would involve great expense, and the city
would virtually be without water supply while
| the repairs were being maize. The engineers
| thought il would be safer and better III the long
| run to buy new pump.
