Snubbed by Congressman Carter.

Snubbed by Congressman Carter.
mo, We did not take vote on the
speakership of the house. but there was a
unanimous sentiment against Reed for
that important position. His election WAS
a blow to the silver industry. Upon the
light of adjournment. Thursday night.
about II o'clock, the Montana delegates
sent telegram to Thomas II. Carter,
urging him not to support Reed for the
spea kershi il he had the interests OF the
silver miners of Montana at heart. We
Carter supported and worked for Reed is
know to all, and he was not Montana's
choice for that position"
DR.. Mussigbrod is q strong Republican
and though he would like to apologize for
Mr.. Carter's action, and dislikes to mention
the subject, the fact remains that Slippery

of MDntana. Forty-eight hours after the
ST. Louis delegates sent the telegram in
which was embodied the sentiments OF the
people OF Montana, Mr.. Carter was at q
caucus and placed himself on record for
r ed. He had the opportunity OF his life
within his grasp, il he had subserved thein-
terests and wishes OF his constituents. in
coming out like man and declaring that
he could not, in difference to the wishes
of 100000 people whom he represented,
support q man who was on re-
cord as the enemy OF the greatest
industry OF his state. He had abundant
time from Friday until Monday to reply to
the st. Louis delegates, but he ignored and
even snubbed them, and subsequent events
have shown that not only did Carter vote
for Reed, but he rolled up his sleeves and
went to work for him. That was q spec
tacle. The representative OF the richest
mineral district in the world, telling the
representatives OF the agricultural regions
that Reed was all right, else he would not
vote for him. And who could suppose
tn It Mr.. Carter, representing. as he did,
Montana's chief industry, could not in
duce some men to believe that as long as
he (Carter) was willing to support Reed,
why should they not do the same, as long
as the Montana representative assured
them that his people were favorable to
Reed.
The Inter Mountain of Butte, the west
side organ OF Republicanism, is pronounced
in it's dislike for Reed. During the cam
paign that paper opposed the importation
Of q gold-bug to preach Republican doc
trine to the people OF Montana. But Mr..
Carter, for the sake OF personal preferment
and regardless OF the known wishes OF his
constituents, deliberately supported a man
who is their worst enemy.

Short Service to Denver.

DENVER, Aug. 27,-The new mail serv-
ice from the east by the Kansas Pacific
train will benefit Denver about seven
hours, pouch" towns north and east
from eight to twelve hours, and smaller
points about sixteen hours. The Kansas
Pacific train will take the mail from the
Kansas City fast mail, which arrives in
tlct city over the Missouri Pacific. When
this last mail service was given to Kansas
City the government urged upon the
Union Pacific management to hold the
Kansas Pacific train an hour and a hall
and carry it through to Denver. The
company did not at that time think ii
could shorten its schedule and make con-
nections, and the result was that the
Santa Fe has been carrying the mail, ii
reaching Denver in the afternoon instead
OF 7:l5 Il. NJ. Now the Union Pacific
company has changed its mind and will
shorten its running time ali hour and
quarter to Denver, leaving Kansas City
at II :l5 Il. m. The gain to Denver will
he that business men will get eastern
mail by that route in the morning.

THE DESERT LAND ACT.


CHEYENNE, Aug. 27.-The recent letter
nf Sec. Noble on the subject of desert land
in the arid region, followed as it is to day
by U:,lcul instructions to registers and re-
reiVers by Acting Comr Stone OF the gen
eral land office, causes the greatest un-
casiness here.
Sec. Noble, in his letter to Gov. Shoup,
Of Idaho, decides that all arid land of this
western country has practically been
segregated to the use of the geological
survey since October last, when the act
vas passed AS the secretary's letter re-
ceives Interpretation here, the law not
only applies to the spectators who We're
following up the government surveys with
the object OF gobbling up choice sections
of land, but applies to all other sections
in which Gen. Powell and his assistants
may hereafter decide to 90 to work.
Comr. Stone says: The Wa:er courses
and the arid lands that may he irrigated
by the system OF national irrigation are
now reserved to he hereafter, when re
deemed to agriculture, transferred to the
people OF the territories i'll whi:h they are
situated for homesteads. The act Of con
Iress and common justice require that
they should he faithfully preserved for
these declared purposes"
Are all desert lands now withdrawn
from the market and the desert land laws
superseded, whether the geological survey
have set to work in each particular region,
or are they not?
This is an interesting question upon
Which the people desire torereive some
more light. As it now stands Sec. Noble
has decided that the desert land laws
the arid regions have been
abrogated.
