RAILROAD NOTES.

Dickinson, late OF The Montana Union. LikeIy
TO Enter the Montana Central Service.
A private letter from Butte yesterday
stated that IL was the general impression
there that q. w. Dickinson, the retiring
superintendent OF the Montana Union.
would undoubtedly accept an important
position with the Montana Central road,
and from conversation held with officials
OF this company, while they would reveal
nothing definite, there is every reason 10
believe that Mr. Dickinson, as soon as he
concludes his affairs with the Montana
Union, will join the Montana Central.
General Agent Lewis OF the Union Pa
cifc, with headquarters at Butte, left for
home yesterday morning.
aud nothing OF interest transpired In rail.
road circles. unless Il was the discussion of
railroad building In this territory.
Regarding the movements Of the Union
Pacific II appears TO be definitely certain In
some quarters that the road will come this
way during the summer, branching out
from Dillon, westward through Jefferson
county 10 Gallatin and from this point
paralieling the Northern Pacific TO Helena
and on to Missoula- About three years
ago q corps OF Union Pacific engineers
staked line from Dillon 10 Gallatin and
II seems 10 be the impression that this line
will be built this year until final cOnnec-
tions are made with the Oregon Railway
d Navigation company's road. From the
many rum0rs afloat the conclusion IL
reached that the presest year will witness
q boom In railroad building. with Helena

shall issue his proclamation declaring the
state Of South Dakota admitted into the
Union. Agreed 20, aud Springer's amend
ment as amended was agreed 70. A simi-
lar provision relative 10 the admission OF
Montana was embodied In the substitute
upon motion OF Toole, OF Montana.
DOugherty, Florida, offered an amend
ment Including Utah and Arizona, saying
"he could not see why an omnibus bill OF
democratic origin should let In all the re-
publican territories aud keep out the demo-
cratic territories. lie did not see why
Utah should be kept out The people were
fully equal 10 statehood and were among
the most reliable democrats in this country.
In this case religious prejudice operated to
keep out Utah; why should she be kept
out? believe it Is bad politics for party
TO admit territories which will strengthen
its opponents and keep out those that will
strengthen itselfn The amendment was
ruled out ON point OF order. The house
then proceeded 10 vote on the omnibus bill
AS amended, as a substitute for the senate
measure, and IL was agreed 10 by party
vote OF yeas, 1888; nays, lS0.
Baker, New York, then moved 10 recon-
NIT the bill, with instructions TO the com.
mittee on territories 10 report back a bill
for the Immediate admission OF South Da-
kota and enabling acts for Montana and
North Dakota. The senate bill, as amend
ed by the substitution OF the omnibus bill,
was then passed-yeas ia, nays w.
Springer moved 10 amend the title so as
10 conform TO the body OF the bill. Gros-
yenor, Ohio, thought the title should read
ITO try 10 convince the people OF Dakota
that the democratic party is willing that
Dakota should come into the union, but In
fact 10 keep that territory and all others
that have republican majority out
OF the union for an indefinite period
of time During the last session OF
congress the gentleman from Illinois and
those who acted with him had refused 20
consider bill for the admission OF Da-
kota, but they had heard voice-it had
been the voice OF n magnificent popular up
rising In the northwest-it had said In
thunder tones that the democratic party
was not dt 10 rule the country. The peo-
pie OF the northwest had called for bread
and the democratic caucus had given them
stone. There was nothing now In the
bill but delay; Its purpose was delay and 10
defrand the people out OF their rights.
Springer's motion was agreed 10 and the
house then took a recess, the evening SEES

A -Four Thousand Foot Tunnel Being Bored
at tho jay Gould Mine.
An enterprise Of considerable magnitude
is now under way at the Jay Gould mine.
1t is the boring Of tunnel i.3ce feet, or
nearly "a mile In length, In the mountain
where this rich property Is located. This
is probably the biggest undertaking OF It's
kind ever attempted In the territory, and
will involve nm outlay OF $4,000. The
work has already begun and will be prose-
cuted with yIgor until completed. which It
Is expected will be within sixteen months.
II Ia being driven some 800 feet below the
lower level OF the mine, which Is down 525
feet from the surface. This tunnel will be
a crosscut through country rock, II being
expected TO tap the vein at the distance
mentioned. An air compressor will fur
nish ventilation for the miners as soon as
required and drills will be used for
boring. When this work shall have been
completed an upraise will be made to con-
meet with the main workings. At present
there are 5000 feet OF levels In the Jay
Gould. Its one of the best paying mines
months paid S23S 900 In dividends, the ore
being treated In q 10stamp mill. When
the present work Is completed the milling
capacity will be largely Increased. The
mine Is owned by Helena men. among
them being Messrs. Downs, Allen and Da-
Wis.
The 10000 shares OF Treasury stock Of

Republican Politicians at Warrington Averss

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1s.-The delegations
from both Sauth and North Dakota, who
have been here urging the passage Of the
senate bill for the admission OF South
Dakota and an enabling act for North
Dakota, feel very much dissatisfied with
the provisions OF the Springer omnibus
bill which passed the house to-day. They
are all united In saying II will merely serve
10 delay the admission Of South Dakota
and render useless all that has been done
since the organization OF the movement for
admission five years ago. They are going
TO ask the senate 70 reject 10, and are will
ing 10 take their chances with the new con-
gress, hoping and expecting that an extra
session will be called by the president elect
when he takes Office. The delegation re-.
gard the provisions of the bill snfair In a
political sense and unsafe for the material
interests OF the territory.

LOCAL OPINION.
How Helena People Regard tho Action Of the
Democratic House.

How Helena People Regard tho Action Of the
Democratic House.
The INDEPENDENT bulletined yester-
day afternoon the passage OF the omnibus
bill in the house yesterday. Hundreds OF
people stopped to read the announcement,
and II was the general impression that II
was the most cheering news that has
reached here for q long time. Many
opinions were expressed regarding 1t, and
while all were In favor OF being admitted
into the sisterhood of states on
the condition OF resubmitting the
constitution adopted In 1884 to the
vote Of the people, as they
were sure II would again be unanimously
adopted, the more conservative did not
look upon the result OF the omnibus bill as
a guarantee that statehood Is assured; In
fact, they doubted much its passage In the
senate, from the fact that the measure
passed the house on strict party vote, two
democrats voting with the republicans.
Judge w. W. Dixon expressed the opinion
that he doubted very much the passage OF
the bill In the senate, especially II that
body should, as was done In the house, ad-
here 10 party vote. In view OF the senate
being republican by a small majority.
Several members OF the legislature were
asked for an expression OF opinion on the
subject; those who were seen were decid-
edly In favor OF statehood ON the conditions
af.ilounced. Wher asked II it would not
be advisable 10 memorialize the SEN
ate 10 adopt the bill passed
by the house several members re-
piled that the idea was q good one, and IL
Is very probable that some action In this
respect will be taken at t0-day's session.
Judge Joseph Davis said the news did
not In the least surprise him, as Assistant
Postmaster General Stevenson, when he
was through here six months ago, re-
marked 10 him that the omnibus bill would
be passed In the house. The Judge is very
sangulne OF Its passage In the senate.
Hon. Il. q. Power also expressed the be-
lief that the measure would 20 through the
senate. That body, he thought, surely
realizes that we have been clam0ring and
knocking loud. and as II was good meas
ure he did not think party prejudices would
hold the senate back from endorsing the
bill. lie regards II as clever scheme on
the part OF the democrats in the house at
this particular time, and the news did not
surprise him.
The opinion of another prominent person
was 10 the effect that the senate would
never allow the bill 10 pass, as II Is the de-
sire 10 have the glory OF admitting the ter
ritories for themselves.

EVILS THAT MAY ENSUE.
Non-Mormons. West Alleges, Would
Be Compelled to Leave the Terri
tory Should Congress Grant
the Mormons' Request.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1s.-Governor West,
OF Utah, was heard by the house commit
tee on territories today In opposition to the
admission OF Utah. He appeared, he said,
ns the governor Of the territory, and as
such ought not TO have any prejudice
against the people. Duty, honor, manhood
required he should be perfectly fair and
honest In oil he should say on the subject.
He invited the committee 10 ask him any
questions that suggested themselves and
said he should give fair, honest and can
did answer, no matter whom 1t hurt He
had been invited 20 come TO Washington
and oppose the proposition OF admission.
In this movement he represented himself
as citizen, and he might say the universal
sentiment OF the nom Mormon population
OF Utah. There never had been single
adverse criticism on his administration Of
affairs In the territory. He had not come
before the committee for the purpose
mons. lie argued that statehood for Utah
would entrench Mormonism. and he asked
what check would be upoH the Legislature
II the power OF statehood be granted Utah.
The old non Mormon residents would nave
TO sell out at sacrifice and get away; they
could not live there and prosper. The
new non Mormon residents OF the territory
had said they would have 10 do the same
thing. He would warn the democrats OF
the effects OF adopting q policy that would
look 10 the admission OF Utah. History
shows, he said, the Mormons are neither
republicans nor democrats. The allegiance
OF the Mormons u TO their church, and II q
party made the fearful and fatal biunder
OF advocating statehood for Utah, there ID
not territory In the northw west that might
thereafter become a state that party could
hope TO carry In an election. Gov. West
Will conclude his argument tomorrow.
