GENERAL HARR1sox Ms idea of "busi-
ness administrative" does not seem to
agree entirely with that entertained by
Governor Morrill,. The general says:
''The idea. that a mayor or chief of
police is At liberty to permit any law or
ordinance to be violated is monstrous.
We choose executive officers to enforce
laws and no, to repeal or suspend them
at their pleasure-there oath 10 so. Ii is
subversive of our system and des ructlvs
of our social order and of tue peace of
our communities to allow our executive
officers To choose what laws they Will eu-

1Ation to Right of Way.
WARRINGTON, Sept q. - Secretary
Smith today rendered an important de.
clsion regarding railroad rig ut of way.
The road affected is the Montana Rail-
way company, This company applied
for right of way over pub ic lands under
the act OF 1875 making such grants.
THIS act provided that the road should
be completed within five years after
the map of location was filed.
The Montana company did not
com plete Its road in that time, but
subsequently offered the maps OF loca
ton Tue cummis sioner of the general
Iaud office recommends the maps be not
approved beeauss the road was NOT COM
pleted within five years after The first
map of location was filed.
The secretary says there is no reason
why the Company should be denied the
right to file new map of location even
after the expir ,tion of the tive years. the
new map TO operate upon such lands AS
are free from claim. He therefore APP
proves the ne" maps for the Montana
Railway company.

The Populists of Indiana, under instrnc-
tions from Chairman Taubeneck of the
national committee, are now mannuvring
for union with the free silver wing of
the Democratic party One of the Populist
leaders said union Of the PopulistS with
the free silver men in both the old parties
is inevitable.
I'VE think we see the breaking up of
old political parties" said he, "fhe con
test next year will be between the gold
men on one side and the silver men on the
other The contest will be one in which
the South and West will be arrayed
against the East. The battle ground will
be in Indiana, illinois, Iowa and Mime
sofa. II the South and West stand together
for free silver, they will win"
DO the Populists stand ready to unite
with the Democratic silver party"
Yes. If the party should win 1t would be
u victory for the Populists. 1t is inma-
teriaI under what name we win. The free
coinage of silver is the centra! doctrine of
the Populists, and VIC are ready to make
any sort of union if We can accomplish
our object"
