rlsOn, son of the president, this morning
contained dispatch from Washington
generally supposed to have been written
in the White house, intimating that ap-
pointments would be made for all the
territories within day or two. The
leading candidates are HerShtield, pres
ident of the Merchants National bank
of this city and chairman of the Repub-
lican territorial committee, and Gen. l..
S. Wilson, of BoZeman. The former is
now in Washington, and is said to have

the removal of Gov. Leslie is
In the fact that the legislature has only
week more to live, and that the NOM
nations for treasurer, auditor and at

If a Republican can obtain possession
of the executive office he will withdraw
the names sent to the council by Gov.
Leslie for the offices named and make
nOmina tions of Republicans.

returned the compliment as well as his
wasted strength would permit. KesSler

Ryan was still game, however. and his
pluck was commendable, but the Butte

and had many early privations. After
varied commercial experience in
which he developed great business abil-
ity, he became. a member of the dry
goods firm of Williamson, Burrough &
Co. He was verJ successful in
business and retired from active work
many years ago, with a fortune aggre-
eating millions. Mr.. Williamson has
been charitable man all his life, aud
has given literally to all worthy objects.
The crownlng act of MIR. Williamson's
philanthropic life was the gift of 81, ,5OO,-
600 for the founding of the Williamson
Free School of Mechanical Trades,
which is to be built as soon as Ioca-
tion is decided upon. The affairs of the
project are now in the hands of board
of trustees. Mr.. Williamson has al
ways led life of the greatest seclusion,
and has kept himself as much as possi-
BILE out of the puolic eye.

BISMARCK, n. D., March 7.-The ON

The governor claimed that it provides
for an expenditure of 100000 year in

townships and incorporated Towns to aid
in the construction of railroads. and re-
quiring elevators to return the same
grade of wheat as that received. Two
sealed messages from the governor
called for an executive session at

railroad committee tonight decided to
report Mr.. Taylor's bill with recon-

by vote of seven to two. This is by,
far the most important measure that has
been before the present legislature, and
the railroad lobby has made powerful
and apparently successful fight to kill
it. The bill was modelled somewhat
after the Minnesota law providing for
railroad commission of three members
and long and a short haul clause similar
to the interstate law.
