"We aim lo extend our railway to Burns, and we do not caro to go through a country with no inhabi tants. For this reason wo havo ask ed tho government to be a little mod erate In Its reservation and give that immediate section of the country a chance to grow. "Wo will at once extend our line to the John pay country. This much is positively assured. Tho Burns ex tension will also be built; but how soon, I am unable to say. We cannot set a definite date. "Our company was Incorporated four years ago to extend to Burns and wo intend to do so, provided some other railroad does not got In ahead of us and capturo tho trado of that region.

Washington, 15. C, April 7. There will be nnxlous days and Rlcoplcss nights for tho democratic lenders of nil factions until nfter tho Now York Rtntp convention week after next. The result of the recent primaries In that state uro not regarded as decis ive and only the state convention will show conclusively which way the democracy of the omplro stnto Is headed. If Now York Instructs for Parker It will be accepted as a certainty that Parker Is New York's rholco. The conservative wing of tho party, Is practically pledged to abide by the I'holco of Now York state. If Now York should not Instruct Its 78 dolo gates for Parker and bind thorn by the unit rulo, nil will bo chaos Jn tho conservative ranks as well as In tho other two rankH. That would ho taken lo mean that New York had no choice and tho Ibsuc would have to bo fought out on tho lloor of tho con vention, It Is tho confident hopo and belief that If tho Now York convention In structs for Parker all of tho conven tions to be hold later which tho con servatives may bo able to control will follow suit nnd that thoir dele gates may bo classed a Parker supporters.
