In Utica, in which every county IN the

was selected as the most suitable per-
son to unite the force Of the state, and

once a law in the state of New York
which allowed The people to go to the
ballot boxes and choose electors of pre-

this law was repealed. Mr.. Clinton was
then in the legislature, and was one OF
four who opposed its repeal. In 1902
he proposed to the legislature that reso-
buttons be passed to promote that a.
mendment Of the constitution of the u
S. that would allow the people to vote
for electors. In 1903 ne voted this "a
mendment in the senate of the United
States; and in 1920 he recommended to
the legislature the very law now before
the people. For twenty-five years,
then, he has been the friend of the cleo
toral bill. Who, in July 1912, one

ST. LoUIs, Sept. ao.-We are indebted
to highly respectable cores 1ondent for
the following letter, the particulars of
which are derived from the Indian A
gent at Fort armstrong.
"a war party of sauk Indians return
Ell to their village, in this vicinity, on the
| 8th instant, from an expedition against
the Sioux. They were all mounted,
and had been absent about thirty days.
They report that they discovered onthe
9th Aug. lar party Of Sioux Indians,
whic h they followed two days; that on
the evening of the second dav, they pas
sed severa! large pits which had been
dug by these Indians for defence; that
on proceeding further, they found great
with arrows, and also one horse; that
they soon after heard of the sound of
drums, which apprised them of being in
the neighborhood Of their enemies; that
the drums ceased beating aboutl0o'clock
at nigh. and that the party. which con :
sisted Of forty-fve young men, attacked
the sioux camp an hour or two before
day break, and killed fifteen oftheirnum-
Der; and took one prisoner, girl of ten
or twelve years of age, and then retrea.
ted without the loss of a man; but they
had not proceeded far, before they found
themselves surrounde d by numerous
party of the Sioux, and having no other
alternative they fought their way
through them, and, in doing this, lost
ltaeir prisoner and had eight of their
number killed, and two wounded The
wounded have returned with the party.
but the dead were left in possession of
the enemy.
They were so closely pursued by the
Sioux, that they lost several oftheir hor-
SEES and most of their blankets, and re-
turned nearly naked, and in a state OF
starvation. The Sauks suppose that,
the Sioux belong to The Sussitoah band,
and that the cattle which they found dead,
are the same that crossed the Des Moi
mes, about sixty days since; several OF
the war party who saw them at the time
they crossed the river, says, that the drove
consisted nearly OF one hundred head,
and that il was in charge of five Amer
lean and two Frenchmen; that they had
along with them, ten horses and mules,
and that they presumed they were bound
to 81, Peters. They further say. that
they saw horse and a mule that belon-
ged to the drovers, in the possession OF
the Sioux, on the morning OF the action,
and that it is their opinion that the dro-
vers have been massacreed by them.
