med is from some convenient point in
Helena to the Missouri river at Stubs
erry, across the Belt range by way OF
Whites or Confederate gulch. or other
pass that may be found desirable, thence
p the valley of Smith river to or near
White Sulphur Springs, thence by way
bf the head waters of the south fork of

toute to Castle.
One of the incorporators, referring to
NE enterprise yesterday. said the Moor
POration did not mean that eithe' Mr..
Lawrence, who had Incorporated . com
pahy. or Mr.. Harlow. who intended TO 90
p, to build Il road to Castle. were to be
ehut out from making a proposition 10
fhe general committee having the matter
pr raising a bonus for the building of
ouch a road. 1t simply meant that the
people who were paying for the survey
Rcross the Belt mountains wanted To bc
IN a position to protect that survey. and
when it became necessary to transfer 1t
i could be done in a more buslness-like
@ay. ut may be possible continued the
gentleman, shat the gentlemen back OF
PR, Lawrence and Mr.. Harlow may not
pare to make us a proposition after the
Survey is made. In that case Helena
flen will be prepared to 60 ahead and
build the road and make it altogether a
ocai enterprise. We are not anxious to
b. into railroad building, but we can and
,xill do so il necessary. The road from
Helena is going to be built, either ny
oreign or Helena capital. and If IA feast
Die pass is found across the Belt mount
ms the rails will be laid to White Sui
phur Springs this year.
There will he but onc road buil' from
Helena to White Sulphur Springs, ana
Eastle. but of that one the people OF
Lewis and Clarke and Mcaghcr counties
pay. be assured. The Lawrcnc" anu
Harlow syndicates will be given the iirst
now, ard if neither takes advantage oil
Pc opportunity the company incorpo-
Faied yesterda! will build the line,
In this connection the Rocky Noun
gam Husbandman says: The next sub
pect OF interest after dirt begins to NY
|on the Helena. White Sulphur springs
~ Castle railroad will be "a branch from
White Sulphur Springs to Neihart by
me same company. A survey OF thit
line will probably DO ordered al soon as
the surveyors are through with the pres
|ent work. The committee already has
the proposition to build INTO the timber
region of the Belt mountains under ad.
visement and a little effort on the par
OF Neihart will secure the prize.
