Robert Ingeraoll is stopping In the city fora few days , and Is receiv ing many friends and visitors. In an interview ho was asked : "How do yon regard the present po litical situation ? " "My opinion is that the ideas the north fought for upon the field have at last triumphed at the ballot box. For several years after the rebellion was put down , southern Ideas traveled north. Wo lost West Virginia , Now Jersey , Connecticut , Now York and a great many congressional districts in other states. We lost both houses of congress , and every southern state. Southern ideas reashed their climax in 1876. In my judgment the tide baa changed , and hereafter northern , ideas are going south. Old democrats are dying , aud the cradle ia beating the coffin. It is a race of life and death , and life is ahead. ' ' "What kind of a president do you think Garfield will make ! " "My opinion is that ho will make aa good a president as the nation over had. He is fully equipped. He will treat the south just the same as the north. He will bo president of the whole country. Ho will not exe cute the laws by compass , but accord ing to the constitui-on. I do not speak for Gen. Garfield , nor by any authority from his friends. " "Is there any probability that Mr. Sherman will be retained in the cabi net1 ? "I believe Gen. Garfield is well enough acqnalntod'with public men to choose a cabinet * that will suit him and the country. I believe ho will select his own constitutional advisers , and take the best he knows. " Continuing , Mr. Ingeracll said , "A statesman must deal with things aa they are ; ho must not bo like Glad stone , who divides his time between foreign wars and amendments to the book of common prayer. I regard religion as a personal matter , which each individual soul shouldbe allowed to settle for iteelf. No man In the brogans of impudence should walk into the temple of another man's soul In regard to religion. In politics , if Catholica oppose public schools , I would not oppose them because they are Catholics , but because I am In fa vor of public schools as the intellec tual bread of life. I respect every honest man , and I think moro of a liberal Catholic than I do of an Illib eral infidel. The religious question shonldjbe left out of politics. " Crazy Infatuation.

And the First jThing He Hears is Complaint of Jay Gould's Monopoly. Colorado .Bound to ba Eman cipated from the Clutches ot the Grasping Pacific. Correspondence ot TnK BEE. DENVER , Col. , November 10,1880. A. trip to Colorado at any season of the year Is at once pleasant , interest ing and Instructive in the highest de gree. Daring the last few months I have traveled over a great extent of the Centennial state , crossing its plains by the Atchison , Topeka and Santa Fo railway , and then wandering over its gold and silver districts in a light-wagon or mounted on a mule and not nnfrequently following the meanderings of some remote and hazardous Indian trail on foot , driv ing a burro laden with "grub , " blankets and a scanty assortment of wearing apparrel before mo. This beautiful city of Denver is doubly welcome to the traveler after a long journey across the plains or through the rugged mountain region , at the eastern base of which it is sit uated. It ia generally conceded that Denver is the best built city between St. Lcuis and San Francisco , and there is a dash and animation to the place , along with a finish and elegance , that suggests prosperity , wealth and eastern stability , as well aa the pro gressive aud aggresa'.vo ' frontier.- . Den ver may indeed bo termed a metro politan city , with comparatively the same varying social status as that of New York , the national capital , Chicago cage or St. Louis. Just now the place is crowded with a promiscuous mass of humanity , juat in from across the "range" the miners and prospectors of the "great treasury vaults of the world , " who , having passed the sum mer months In search of hidden treas ure in the mountains , return to the frontier towns to pass the rugged months of Traitor , unendurable In the mountain fastnesses. Denver was fora time completely at the mercy of that remorseless mon opoly , the Union Pacifij ra'lroad ' , which dictated their own terms to her commerce , and in a degree stunted and retarded her growth , but the completion of the Atchison , Topeka & Santa Fe to Pueblo , a few years ago , emancipated her from her thraldom and since then her growth has been more rapid and her prospects have become more brilliant than that of any other place in the west , if we ex cept ihat wonderful mining camp , Leadville. The Atchison , Topeka & Santa -Fe connects with Denver by means of the Denver & Rio Grande railway at Pu eblo. This road running from Den ver ia the only railroad that approach es the rich mines of the San Juan country and it is controlled by the Atchison , Topeka & Santa Fo. The rogiihr route to tbo San Juan and Del Norto , Silvcrtou , Like Uity , Par- roll City , Ouray and the Gunnison , is vin. Pueblo and the Denver & Rio Grande road through the San Lufa park to its terminus , thence by stage , to the various points to bo reached. Almost all merchan- disa and supplies going in to the mountains of southwestern Colorado rado nro freighted from the terminus of this road and all ere and bullion from the mines and wool , hides , pelts and other material from the stock ranges , and ranches are started east ward from that point by rail. Jay Gould has been endearorinj : unro- ! fittingly , since he obtained coil * ' ; rol of the lines of the Pacific railroad hat connect Benvt'r with the Missouri river to get hold of the Denver' and EUo Grande , but has failed owing to ; he opposition of General Palmer , the iresldent of the road. Could ho tuc- : eed in accomplishing his purpose ho would eg'ain have Denver and the ransportatfon of all the flouriihlng mining camps of northwestern Colorado rado , including such flourishing towns aa Georgetown , Central City , Boulder and Oclden within his power , for he could cUt off transportation to and rom the east over the Atchison , Fopoka and Santa Fo entirely. It la not probable that Jay Gould will ever uccecd , however , in securing control of the Denver and Rio Grande and ikely ho will turn his attention to the ) enver and South Park road which will h.Tro a parallel line to the Gunni- on country. There Umuch feelingmanlfcsted hero over the high handed extortions of ho Pacific monopoly , and the people of Denver seem determined to eman cipate themselves beyond the pos- ibility of a relapse from Us clutches. ) iie of the most enterprising railroads n the west , f ttd o'no Of the beat man aged , the Chicago , Burlington & Juincy railroad , is working its way ute Denver and is receiving every en couragement to rapid progress. The road ia now running a line from Us western terminus , at Indlanoja , No- > raska , along the fortieth parallel in- o this city , coming Ia over the Den ver Pacific. The Chicago , Bnrling- on & Qulncy management have > onght up the Golden , Boulder , Caribou and Pacific railroad. ? his line has only five miles of road laid and is scarcely cnown , bUt iti purchase was Import ant , aa It gives the purchasers the ight of way through the Boulder anon. Persons in the confidence of he C. , B. & Q. management give me ositiveassurance , that this road will 'igorously-push ' the completion of its racks Into this city , and they are con- dent that tralns will be run into ) enveif over this line by the 4th of uly next. Denver and Pueblo may bo tegarded as the starting points for the various joints of the mountains. Tourist ? ind travelers make the latter point heir base for visiting the San Juan ountry and the southwestern cities nd mining towns and camps f Colorado , while all the northern points among the mountain nines must fce reached via the Color- do Central railway from Denver. Tnls roailj wilrrWa J&rks Wjd br&hcn- i s , ia the main ariery of communlca- ion between "Denver and the Union 'acific and Kansas Pacific , and most of the 'arming and coal districts , and , ho mining sections of Northern Colorado. The Denver & Rio Grande cts in asimiliar capacity for southern nd central Colorado , and has the Uchiaon , Topeka & Santa Fo for its utlot and feeder. The Denver , iollinsville & Western railroad has ust been incorporated. The object a to buiid a road from Central City nto Routt county , connecting various mining camps in the vicinity with ! joadville. The capital stock Is § 1- 00,000 , with the principal office in his city. It Is the intention to ventually push the road through Jtah aud to California. Speaking of railroads no better in- ication of Colorado's increasing irosperity is needed than that shown > y the traffic over the Denver and Rio Grande. The earnings of this little , reeked narrow guage read for the , nal week of last month wore S152- 973.18 , a gain of nearly § 100,000 over he corresponding period of 1879 , the igures at that time being § 59,906.46. ntho entire month of October the arnlngs were § 475,318 81 , and in October of 1879 § 150,073.82. There is no doubt that Colorado is apidly becoming the most prosperous livislon of the west or , Indeed of the whole country. Her varied and ex- enalvo resources almost surpass com- irohenslon , and the vast flow of capi- al and tide of emigration in this di rection insure their rapid and early de velopment. Ripid as the advance ment of this new country has been , it s evident that the record of tte past will baar no comparison with that of he future. To note' some of these resources , the mineral deposits , the stock ranges , the agricultural ranches , and the climatic and scenic features of this country , which is just now at- raciing so much attention , will be the rovinco of the series of letters which . ' propose sending you from this and other cities in the state. Ar.ous.
