COMING SOUT'HWARD.

We take the following from the
Medicine Hat Times. It foreshadows
the approach Of the Gait road to
Great Falls which is the natural
southern terminus for any such road.
CAT LAST matters are assuming
definite shape regarding the extension
of the Gait railroad from Lethbridge
into the mining centers of Montana.
The smelters Of Anaconda and Butte
are anxious to obtain the Gait coal,
and have promised the company to
take all that can be shipped from
Lethbridge. The northwest has al
ready lost millions of dollars the past
few years by the disallowance of a
charter for the construction of the
road into Montana, but now that Mr..
Gait has returned with capital and a
determination to at once commence
operations on the proposed new line,
nothing should be thrown in the way
of its immediate construction. The
passenger traffic on this line will un-
doubtedly pay the operating expenses,
as it will connect with both the Mani
toba and Northern Pacific roads, and
the Importance of this new line will
soon be recognized by the travelling
public.
Great Falls tribune., 1888-12-12
GREAT FALLS TRIBUNE.
WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 70. 1888.
.SEMI-W EEKLY
OUR CLAIMS TO STATEHOOD.

The friends OF statehood and that in
cludes all the people Of Montana should
endeavor to keep that question out Of
politics and make it national measure
like the coast defenses or the homestead
law. We believe in the good old demo-
cratic doctrine that the popular will in
the territories should be final in all dis
puted questions which are Of home con
cern and do not harm directly the other
territories or states.
We believe emphatically it is both ex
pedient and wise for the democratic party
to favor the speedy admission of the ter
ritories whether it increases the republi-
can majority in the senate unduly or
otherwise. The democratic party should
not favor admission to prevent an extra
session or to deprive tie republicans Of
public gratitude, but because it is just
and right. The democrats have now
noble opportunity to rise above party
This after all is the true way to attain
permanent party success. These senti-
ments are inspired by the following arti-
Gle from the Minneapolis Journal, which
speaks with authority to the republicans
to the same effect:
1t would be an interesting change in
the situation if the republicans should
allow themselves to be forced into a posi-
ton where they would be guilty of prac-
tically the same action toward the terri
tories seeking admission that they have
so long and SO justly charged against the
democrats. Delegate Clifford says the
democrats IN the house cannot be held to
the support of the Springer bill, but that
if the matter were allowed 70 come up
large number of them would vote for the
division of Dakota and the immediate ad-
mission of all four of the Northwestern
territories.
There are these two important things
to be done-the admission Of the terri
tories and the revision Of the tariff. If
the democrats refuse to do them as the
republicans wish the democrats know that
it is only very short time till the repub-
licans will have the power to do both as
they please without regard to the demo-
Gratis. Under the circumstances it is not
unreasonable to think, as Judge. Clifford
positively states, that the democrats are
ready to do all fr Dakota that she asks
if they are only given chance. They
will have chance if the republicans do
not filibuster and prevent such action for
the sake of postponing the admis
sion till after this session in
order that the republicans may get the
credit. 1t is, however, very poor politics
and very poor common sense to assume
that the country will not understand if
the democrats admit two Dakotas now
that they do it because they are compell-
ed to do so. The republicans are entl-
tied to all the glory and they will get it,
no matter whether the enabling acts are
passed by this congress or the next.
There is no danger in giving Springer
chance to call up his bill. If it should
pass the republicans have an effectual
check in the senate against such an effort
to defeat the will of the people,
Great Falls tribune., 1888-12-12
MINING INTERESTS.

Montana now holds the first rank
abroad and at home in the production
of the precious metals. Nine out Of
ten Of the large mines in course Of de-
velopment, are paying fair profits
in some cases immense profits. The
reputation Of the territory for fair
dealing in mining enterprises stands
high in New York and London. Mon
tana is not associated with jobbery Or
fraud among mining men. The fol-
lowing extract from Governor Leslie's
message shows that this reputation
has a solid foundations:
mining continues to be the lead
ing pursuit Of the people Of Montana.
The mines are more productive than
ever before. More of the old mines
are now being worked than at any
previous period. Almost every day
adds to the list of new mines dis
covered by prospectors engaged in
this work The improved methods in
working and the better order of
machinery used, coupled with the
wisdom Of experience, enables men to
prosecute this branch ofour Industries
to q greater extent and with more
success. Many mines which would
not pay twenty years ago on account
Of the primitive mode of working
them, together with the high price of
labor, are now being worked at good
profit. Placer mines are numerous
and extensive, and will yield large re-
turns for many years. Nearly all the
valleys in our vast mountain area
yield more or less of placer gold"
''The number of quartz mines Of
gold, silver, copper and lead now in
operation is greater than ever before.
The principal causes for this are that
labor is more abundant and the facil-
tiles for reaching, reducing and sell
ling ores are greatly increased. Mines
which were formerly worked only to
represent and hold the prior claim
upon them are now in regular service
and the ores are shipped to the re-
duction works and sold for profit"
"The extensive reduction works now
in process Of erection near Helena
and at Great Falls have given a new
impulse to mining operations. Al
though the supply Of water necessary
for mining was much less this year
than for many years before, and the
mining season was consequently much
shorter than usual, the yield of bull
lion from all sources is greater than
ever before, and the prospect is that
the yield will continue to increase"
