Every Inch a Magistrate.

Judge Harrington, who succeeds Lau-
randeau as justice of the peace, yester-
day looked every inch the magistrate
that he is. He assumes an air which
is decidedly becoming judge of the
most prosperous court in the city Near
ly all day yesterday he was engaged in
rearranging the paraphernaia of the
office. which has been thoroughly rem
oVated, and now looks as neat and cozy
as a bridal chamber. Many of the
judges friends called yesterday and eX-
changed greetings of the new year and
smoked cigars which Judge Harringt on
provided for the occasion. Yesterday
being legal holiday there was no bust
ness in court and the callers We're ali
assured that their visits We're much APP
preciated. Business will be the motto
henceforth in Harringtons court

AMONG RAILROAD men
G.. N. and O., S. l.. Schedules Go
Into Effect To-Day.
NORTHERN PACIFIC FLYER
It Is Rumored That the Road Will
Put on a New Fast Train to
the Coast = Track Con-
T' struction in 1898.

The new schedules on the Great
Northern and Oregon Short Line will
go into effect to-day. The first passen-
ger under the changed time on the
Short Line will arrive in Butte tonight
at LOS o'clock. The Great Northern
from the East will hereafter arrive in
Butte at 1890 p. M, and the local to
Great Falls has been abandoned, but
will continue to run to Helena.
Notwithstanding the statement of
President Mellen when in Butte the 9TH
er day that the Northern Pacific con-
templated no change in it's service at
present, the Minneapolis Times pub
fishes the following:
THE progressive and aggressive spirit
of the Northern Pacific rebels at any
thing which looks like an advantage to
it's competitor the Great Northern;
therefore the Northern Pacific will put
on an extra fast through service to the
coast early next month, to compete in
running time with the new fast mail
to be run by the Great Northern. 1t
will be red hot race between the two
roads from the start. but 1t would seem
that the Northern Pacific, Son account
of the extensive recent improvements
Of its road bed and rolling stock, will
nave LIE advantage With ~ SOiIco W
straining for supremacy.

cific time card have not yet been work.
ed out, but it is the intention that the
through coast train shall leave Mime
apolis later in the afternoon than at
present, and that it will stop at fewer
stations. additional local trains being
added to take care Of passenger traffic
between the long jumps of the flyer
Accurate figures compiled during the
last few days of the old year show the
aggregate of track construction for the
year 1898 to be 2,O1S miles. This passes
the total Of any year since 1892, when
4,192 miles of new track were construct
ed 1t beats the record of last year by
LBS miles.
There are but five states in the union
in which no track was laid during the
present year. These are New Hamp-
shire. Massachusetts, Rhode Island Me-
vada and Kansas. Three states, Della
ware New Jersey and Vermont, added
but two miles each, and Nebraska add
ed less than one mile Minnesota head
ed the list with $50 miles. of which Jag
miles were constructed by the Great
Northern. Thirteen states built more
than 100 miles each.
The tendency away from and toward
better times is, seen in the following

ton Of general manager and vice presi-
dent of the Baltimore G Ohio While
Mr.. Underwood has discredited the
story as farfa as to say that he had not
been asked to take the position, and
that he had no intention of leaving
Minneapolis, he has not said point
blank that he would not go with the
Baltimore & Ohio, says the Minneapolis
Times.
From very reliable source the story
comes as follows:
This Baltimore & Ohio middle will
END by the appointment of f. d. Under
wood as the chief executive in the oper-
alton of the road although it would be
hard to say what his exact title would
be. l have it pretty straight that the
Hill and Morgan factions have tpracti-
cally agreed upon the appointment of
Mr.. Underwood, and that it will be
made well worth his while to give up
the very independent position he now
holds with the 500 Line. Underwood
would never subject himself to Hills
control.
Had the choice of a manager been
left entirely in the hands of Mr.. Hill,
there is not the slightest doubt that he
would have chosen A. L. Mohler, presi-
dent of the Oregon Railway &. Naviga-
ton company.
MIR. Mohler certainly has a splendid
posIllou al EOFlldHQ, Dut uHueTSlduu
that he wants to get back East again,
even If it is only as far as Minneapolis.
In fact, inasmuch as he cannot get the
Baltimore & Ohio management on ac-
count of Hills lack of strength there,
he would probably consider the position
| of general manager of the 500 Line in
case Mr.. Underwood should resign"
A monster locomotive with seven-foot
drivers, owned by the Chicago, Burling-

with another monster of the Chicago &
Northwestern railway for the fast mail
contract between Chicago and Omaha.
The contest began last night. Though
both sides deny that there is anything
involving a race between the two roads
in the competition for the government
mail contract. it is understood that each
is to do its level best to capture the
prize.
The Northwestern will place in SER
vice its speediest passenger engine,
having 1926 cylinders, and driving

The Burlington's fastest locomotive will
also be used. Its cylinders are of the
same size as the Northwestern's, and

turning it was amazed to see underneath
the tip of volunteer potato vine just
emerging from the ground.
