AS TO III. BURLINGTON
There Il Good Dead Of Talk But Few
New Facts.

BUTTE, March 17.--As n natural Sc
quence of the opening up of spring there
is a great deal of newspaper talk going on
in regard TO what the Burlington intends
TO do this year, and that road is being
built into three or four cities on paper
with remarkable rapidity. All talk at this
time about what the Burlington proposes
to do this year in the way of building is
mere Idle speculation. Nothing definite
will be known in this regard until the an
nual meeting of the directors, which is
held in Boston in April of every year. Inc
years work will be mapped out at this
meeting and until after 1t is held there Is
no one who will know just what the road
intends to do. The indications all are
that the coming summer will see the road
coming up the Musselshell towards Butte
at the rapid rate which characterizes the
Burlington building operations, but there
is no reliable information to be secured
on this point from any source.

A WONDERFUL DECLARATION.

The democratic state convention of
Nebraska met in Omaha on Thursday
OF this week and adopted. a straight
free silver platform. They refuse to
endorse the last national platform.
but make this wonderful declaration;
The democracy of Nebraska approves and
commends the declaration of President Gle
veland in the past and condemns the PERM
cious activity of the incumbents of federal
offices under the government in attempting
to control the policy and nominations of their
parties and we heartily reccomend the re-
newal of the policy of his first administration
in that regard.
What does this mean? If the above
resolution means anything it means
to say, we the democracy of Nebraska
in convention assembled deprecate the
fact that the chief of our party has
not done what he promised the people
to do. His utterances were in our in
terest, his practices pernicious to our
welfare and destructive of our right S.
We commend his declarations. and
condemn his administration. By his
words we have been decoyed, ensnared
and deceived. By putting faith in
his precepts we are undone. When
in the history of free and intelligent
people, have we been called to witness
sadder picture? When the follow
ing resolution was offered, it was
voted down amidst a storm of con-
tempt: -, .e. $3.50
We Recommend the administration of Pres
ident Cleveland as being able, patriotic and
honest and reaffirm the platform adopted by
the democratic national convention at Chica-
go in 1892.
A great party here refuses to en-
dorse the head of their party, and the
chief executive of their nation as be-
ing either able, patriotic or honest.
They further refuse to endorse the
platform of principles upon which he
was elected. What then is the logic
al sequence to such action ? 1t means

be able, patriotic and honest, and we

TO BOND OR NOT ?

On next Tuesday, August q, the
taxpayers of this county will have TO
decide whether they shall pay an eX-
listing warrant idebtedness by spe-
cial tax levy each year, or whether
the Indebtedness shall be funded by
an issue of bonds. We recommend
an issue of bonds because in this in
stance it will be to the best interests
of the taxpayers, and it is hoped that
the proposition will next Tuesday re-
ceive the necessary two thirds Of all
the votes cast.
In funding this indebtedness by an
issue of bonds considerable saving
will be made, because the bonds will
draw less interest than the warrants.
At present the burdens of taxation IN
this county are hard enough to bear,
particularly during these hard times,
without the addition of special levy,
and perhaps when the bonds become
due the assessed valuation of the
county may be double what it is
at present. when the people could
more easily meet the obligation. Do
not cut off your nose to spite your
face. simply because you are preju-
diced against bonds.

The ONLY CERTAIN ROAD TO PROS
PERITY: BIMETALLISM.
THE STATE LAND BOARD.

Under date of August the Occur a.
Alene Press makes some very grave
charges against the state land board.
Itstates in effect that the board had
entered INTO a conspiracy with eastern
capitalists IN connection with the tim
Der on hollands selected by the state
under the grants from the general
government. According to the Press
the timber was to- be sacrificed and
the representatives of the state were
to share the profits. In justice to the
accused and the public who have been
thus misinformed. we deem it proper
to publish fair statement of the sub
ject to which the Press refers. The
following from the Boise Statesman
clearly explains what is being done IN
matter Of securing a fund for the
maintenance of schools and other in
situations of the state, and should be
sufficient to convince even the editor
of the Press that the board are doing
what is just and proper The States
man says in effect:
1T is we'll known to all who have
given the subject any thought that
the ordinary arid lands of the state
are valueless for the purpose of rails
ing funds for the institutions for
which the grants were made. In Sc
lectlng such lands the state is obliged
to go outside OF the districts that are
under canals, the land under the ditch
es being taken up. Irrigation works
must be constructed before any of
these outside lands can be marketed.
But the state is prohibited from sell
ing these lands for less than $40 an
acre; and people cannot afford to pay
that price and then incur the expense
of putting water on the land. The
state has considerable such unavaia-
BILE land now. 1t cannot be sold, nor
is it likely to be sold for long time
to come, unless congress shall amend
the law SO as to permit of sales being
made at less than the present mini
mum figure.
s.In the meantime the state was
confronted with the necessity of pro-
viding for the state institutions. 1t
was useless to go on locating lands that
could not be brought into the market,
and this condition led to investiga-
tion of the timber lands with the view
OF getting something that could be
realized upon. A large quantity of
these timber lands were located and
now an effort is being made to realize
on the timber standing on them.
"The timber that it is desired to
sell is in Latah and Shoshone coun-
ties. Before it can be. sold it must be
appraised, and after it is appraised it
must re advertised. An appraisement
is now being made under a contract
