FRIDAY, MARCH d. 1891.
SE.iIE TNSYI7VTIONS.

The senate wasted much valuabl,
time on Monday discussing the bill,
locating the agricultural college AT
BOzeman and the state university al
Mls,oula. After giving to them con-
sideration for the whole of al after
noon and evening session, the com
mirtee reported favorably on both
bills. and they may pass the senate
They will lie killed in the house, how
ever. and the time devoted to their
consideration has been absolutely
wasted.
Senator Gibson led the fight against
locating ,he,e or any of the state in
stltutiOus at the present time and
made II vigorous speech on the sub
ject. AS briefly reported by the IT.
dependent he said he was more
strongly opposed to locating any of
the state i'll situations now than he was
two months ago. If the question
were submitted to the people he be
lievcd they would favyr grouping all
the institutions together as the Uni
versIty y Montana instead of having
them separate. The proceeds of til,
sal" Of the seventy-two sections OF
land set aside for the university wonld
not maintain it. The university
should be Il university III fact AS well
as ia name. 1t it were put with the
agricultural college and the school OF
mines it would lie on a creditable
basis. The Cascade senator then
cited the examples of other state,
which had put their agricultural ANA
mechanical colleges with their IN
ycroi les. 1t wonld be impossible. he
continued, to make the university
worthy of the name unless all tue
ms buttons were consolidated. The
state could afford to wait two years,
but it could not afford to make a mis-
take.
Senator Gibson's views are emf
nently correct, and there is not the
least danger that the mistake to which
he refers will be made this sessi II.

RUMOR> DENIED.
j. j. Hill Correcting Measurements Made
During his Absence.

During his A bsence.
President Hill being interviewed re-
garding the rumors of a disagreement
betw-en his company and the Union Pa
cific over the building of the road from
Tacoma 10 Portland, n also asked about
the statement that he had gone to Eu-
rope to raise money in order that his com
pany might build the road alone.
Mr.. Hill smiled at some of these stories,
and laughed outright when told of the
latest report that Jay Gould had disap.
proved of the arrangement made by Hill
and Charles Francis Adams for the
building of the road, and that the "little
Hizard' had made an arrangement with
Henry Willard to prevent its construction
at ali hazards.
Mr.. Hill began by saying that not one
of the stories had the slightest fonnda-
ton from beginning to end. He went To
Europe for a short vacation, partly Ia
meet an old friend whom he had not seen
for years.

water said Mr. Hill, "and Ms for placing

the Missouri river between those two
flourishing little towns.

THE death OF Senator Hearst of Cali
fornia will be a serious loss to the demo-
Gratis, as his seat will be filled by Il re-
publican. the governor and Legislature of
California being republican. This will
offset one of the republican losses and
give a nominal majority of six, counting
Illinois for the democrats. The half way
men, or indecrats, from South Dakota and
Kansas will b. with the democrats on the
leading issues. But If the democrats
carry Il presidential election strongly
there will be a swaying margin IN the
republican side. The new North Da-
kota senator, with Plumb, Paddock, and
Cameron, will not be hide. bound. But
the other day Cameron worked hard to
defeat Foster for secretary of the treas.
ury. He is out win the president and
the radicals in his own state have turned
him. Clark>on's Iowa organ, the D-s
Moines Register, says: Cameron is now
regarded AS Il straightout democrat in the
guise of II republican" A democratic
administration would not probably find a
very troublesome senate.

How much sincerity there was in the
Democrats bluster about the corruption of
Hudson county politics, may be seen by
the action OF the majority In the Joint
Legislative Convention, Tuesday. "Bob"
Davis the cx-Sherif OF Hudson county,
the leader OF the ring, and the "head
DEVIL in oil the election frauds OF Jersey
City, was chosen Police Justice. This
man knows too much for the State House
ring to venture to displace him. II he
should ever turn States evidence, Albeit
and the other members Of that junta would
be obliged TO fly. So Notwithstanding
their big words and empty vaporing about
the Hudson county crimes not being tho
crimes of the Democratic party, the gang
lie officially endorsed by the election Of
Davis. The Hudson county Boss and the
Governor are tarred with the same stick.
