5. This place becomes az inviting point at
which to cross the Mssissippi; because the
ridge on the north of the Wisconsin terminates
here; and because here is the Only place on
this mighty river between the Rock Island
Rapids and Lake Pepin where the high and
dry grounds on either side come in sight, and
within mile of each other. Every where
else The river is filled with islands and low
we, bottoms. often under water, and which
makes the necessary length Of viaduct to
cover them all. from ttco to fire miles long;
and also because Immediately opposite this
place a continuous ridge can be had for the
track. which by verging little north will head
every stream which empiies into the MIssls-
sipp below this. and on the west of that river.
And this ridge continues unbroken almost TO
the Missouri river. Such facilities for road,
from the Lake 10 the Missouri are not, perhaps
found on this whole globe, and in this case
should not be neglected.
6. If this road is laid on the ridge north of
The Wisconsin river. within the thirty miles
granted for the purpose. viii come the Iron
hills and The falls Of Black River, where there
is sufficiency of ore, timber and water pow
er TO make all The rails necessary for The whole
road, and then sopPly The valley of the Mis-.
sippi above the Rapids with iron for ages yet
10 come.
Mr.. Whitney leaves this place to-day with
his company. some fifteen persons. on theil
way 10 the Missouri. He takes one baggage
Wagon, and the young gentlemen who accom-
pany him have ponies He intends, if he has
tine, to go one or two hundred miles beyond

FAILURE OF THE INDIAN TREATY
INDIAN COUNTRY, June %, 1915.
A. BRUNSON.

Mn. SPALpING,
Sir--His Excellency Henry Dodge has just
left this country; his object n coming was to
treat with the WinneSsgoes for their possess
sions here, called the "Neutral Ground and
as many in your section Of the country are anx-
ious iha, these Indians should be removed,
,hey perhaps would IKE 10 know the reasons
why his Excolency failed to make treaty.
He was not authorized 10 offer them any
other resting place than one south west OF the
Missouri. which has been offered them so Of
ten, with threats accompanying The offer That
il was supposed by many that they would not
again listen to proposition Of The kind. As
soon as they heard tina, His Excellency was
coming, they Mastered in TO meet the old hero.
and hear wha, he bad to say. They listened
very a,,en,ively TO every word. He neither
hatiered nor threatened ,hem--but the frank
ness of the soldier aud candor Of the gentle
man was seen throughout his treatment TO-
wards them. After he had told them that he
had no more TO say, and was prepared to leave
The next morning, they requested to see him
once more. 10 shake hands and bid him adeu.
They told him that they did not wish to go
west of the Missouri river, and requested him
to say TO their Great Father that they hoped he
would not again ask them 10 go.
There is no man so well known and so uni
versaly liked among the Winnebagoes as the
Northern Hickory, ii. Dodge. and now. that
he has not succeeded, Government may give
up all hopes Of evef removing this people
west. unless by bloodshed and force Gould
his Excellency have given them home north
they would have treated. He did not wish
TO add 10 his reputation by threatening or at
tempting 10 trick them on, OF their lands-bnt
pursued an homes, open course. that has en-
deared him 10 the Indians, and convinced the
whites that he is an honest man and faithful
public officer. Yours &c. y y Y

IypiAS DIFTicULTIEs--We learn from 81 re-

the SIOUX and Chippewa Indians-two tribes ti'at

Ill a command was despatched from the Fort and

morning a talk was had, at which il was agreed
that the Chippewas should leave t~o men in the
Fort as hostages, until the res. Of the band could
find the murderers, and give them up to be punish
