"A Fast Run.

Denver, Feb. From Omaha to
Denver the Burlington hit the time
on the dot. There was no hitch to
mar the race. The finish Of the run
was as exciting a bit Of travelling as
one usually experiences in the west.
Twelve miles out Of the Platte valley
the trains were neck and neck with
the Union Pacitic's new flyer, and
the latter got over the crossing first
only because both could not cross at
the same time. The depot was
reached eight minutes ahead Of time.
The Burlington officials are well
pleased and say they will cut the
westbound time an hour in order tc
make it faster.
The Colorado special, the new fast
train on the Union Pacific & North
western line, pulled into the Union
station here today at l:20, 10 min.
utes ahead of schedule time, having
| accomplished the run from Chicago
,060 miles, in 2S! hours. A large
crowd was present at the station tt
greet the innovation in rapid service
The efficiency Of the new service
has been conclusively proved and its
success seems only a matter Of time
enough for patrons to accustom them
selves to the new schedule.

New York, Feb. 6.--Thc question
of the selling Of the Montana Union.
which has been the connecting link
between the Union Pacific terminus
at Silver Bow, Montana, and the
Northern Pacific main line ut Gar
rison, in the same state, has been
held under advisement for some time
bv the management of the reOrgan-
lied Union Pacitic, with the result
that the Union Pacific directors have
taken formal action and fully decided
to sell the road to the Northern
Pacific, which will thus be able to
make it's man line continuous by
way Of the city Of Butte. The
Standards correspondent met this
evening Il man whose relations
are close with Daniel S. La
mont of the Northern Pacific di-
rectory, and who, when he was asked
for information, said that, SO far as
he was aware, there was no privacy
about the Northern Paciic's side Of
the case, that it stood ready to bny.
that negotiations have been pro
crossing, that the terms Of sale were
practically arranged and that il the
whole matter is not settled it will be
in less than five days. The Stand

formation from e. Ellcry Anderson

ors. lie is in town. but it is impos.
sible to reach him tonight, but it
can be positively asserted as coming
from Mr.. Anderson. although in.
directly, that tie sale of the Mon

detail in the transaction is closed

formal transfer Of the property to.

equally frank, or will it continue tc
mask it's real position behind "minny
a tajus, blundcrin' wurrd' that
leaves it's readers guessing as to just
where it stands.
In conclusion, we beg to remind
the Times that it has not shown, in
contravcntion of our arguments, that
the Montana democracy intend OF
have any thought, Of giving the sill
yer republicans or populists any share
of the official ''pic" that is to be
passed around this fall. Indeed, and
on the contrary, the leading demo-
cratic papers Of the state continually
regret that they let the popnliSts in
at all in 1896, and claim that they
could have won the state. without a
fusion. And they have already
served notice Oh their recent allies
that democracy intends going it
alone this year and taking the
"wholc works" Democracy, puffcd
up with it's partial triumph in 1896,
believes it is strong enough to carry
the state unaided this year, and is
going to make the attempt. AS
witness the ACTIONS and resolutions
of the "Jciferson Club of recent
date. Also the rciteration, by lead
ing democratic papers, that q 'silvcr
republican" is an anomaly, and that
all who believe in the free coinage Of
silver should get in the democratic
band wagon and join the democratic
party, meaning that they want the
silver republican votes for democracy,
pure and simple, tariff for revenue
only, states rights and all, to help
swell the triumph Of "purc demo-
cracy" in this state. Will the silver
walk into their parlor,
or will they just let them try if they
can carry the state by themselves?
Now shat we have cndeavorcd to
make our position clear to the Times,
will that paper be equally frank and
tell just where it stands and what it
proposes to do? Is it q democratic
paper, a populist paper, a silver re-
publican paper, or just what it ac-
cuscs us Of being. q "ielly fish,"

The president has sent in the nom
nation Of Geo. W. Irwin to be post
master Of Butte. and the senate is
certain to confirm. The appointment
was asked for by Senator Mantle and
was endorsed BY Senator Carter. Mr..
Irwin is a silver republican and is
Il strong friend Of Senator Man
tie. He is an old resident of Mon
tana, coming here with BoZeman in
1853, and has mined in Alder gulch
and held various positions OF trust.
He was always straightforward and
outspoken man in matters Of bust
ness and politics, and his appoint
mcnt will give great satisfaction to
every one who knows him. The fact
that the postol1icc in the largest city
in the state was given to a silver re-
publican. and that they arc still re-
cognized by the administrator as be
longing to the republican ->partv,
ought to indccc silver republicans to
hesitate, at least, before concluding
to help democrats in this. state to
the offices this fall. 1t is also a nut
for the Hamilton Times to crack.

Opinion of an Eminent Jurist.

Ballot reform in New York was neces-
sary, says an eminent jurist, because
mere politicians by trade, who had no
interest in government or politics eX-
cept to enrich and aggrandize them
selves, sought perpetual control. There
are other excellent reforms besides that
of the ballot. Conspicuous among them
is the reform in disordered physical
system by Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
which counteracts tendencies to serious
disease bred by deficiency of vital
stamina, irregularity of the bowels,
stomach, liver or kidneys, and inquietude
of the nerves. This sterling medicine,
which has for near half century won
popular favor, not only for its excellent
qualities in remedial capacity, but also
for its serviceable properties as medi-
cinal stimulant.

THE WAR COMMISSION.

The war investigating commission
is doing great things this week. Last
Monday the nine commissioners, with
fifteen persons to wait upon them In
one capacity and another, left WASH
ington in special train of Pullman
cars-all at the government expense
for tour of the various camps. They
visit Jacksonville, General Fitzhugh
Lees headquarters, ofwhich there has
never been any complaint; then they
go TO Tampa, where the soldiers SUI
fered SO greatly, but which is now en-
tirely deserted as camp; then on to
Chickamauga, Knoxville, Lexington
and other points, where, having had
ample notice of the expected visit, the
officers may be relied upon to have
everything in shipshape. The COM
mission will continue its policy of ex-
aiming officials who draw fat salaries
and who are entirely too wise in their
day and generation to imperil their
positions by giving damaging testimo-
ny against their superior officers. At
ter this luxurious and extravaganza
and useless-tour has been completed,
the arduous labors Of the commission
will be resumed in Washington, and
the whitewash will be applied at the
proper time before election.
One witness was examined last week
who was inclined to speak out in meet
ing, but he was squelched. DR.. Louis
L. Seamen, major and surgeon Of the
first volunteer engineers, had been
quoted in a newspaper as having made
serious charges in certain matters.
The commission took him in hand, and
it wasn't long until it was apparent
that they were trying to make out
DR.. Seamen as the guilty man instead
Of endeavoring to fix the responsible
ty on the higher officials, where it be-
longs. DR.. Seamen told of the defcien-
cy of suitable medical supplies, and
had there been an honest desire on
the part of the commission to get at
the truth he would doubtless have
given some startling facts. But when
he saw that the truth was not wanted,
and that he was simply weaving a
halter for his own neck, he refused to
answer further questions, doubtless
having a greater disgust for the COM
mission than he dared express.
The commission is a humbug. 1t
examines only friendly witnesses. 1t
will find no fault with the War De-
partment when it makes its report.
1t is worse than useless, and if its cost
is ever published it will show crimi-
nal extravaganza.
