w. II. FoRBss, Esq. of the firm. OF FORBES
& Krrrsos, arrived direct from Yellow Medi-
inc on Saturday night, bringing rather bad
news from that place. The refusal of the
Superintendent, Mr.. CULLEN, to pay any OF
the annuity lndiansuntil lnkpadutah and his
and were brought in, has apparently arrayed
all the Sioux, including the annuity bands,
against the government of6cers, civil and mil
,tary. Through most miserable and I'M
wise policy, Mr.. CULLEN has been instructed
by the Department Of the Interior to pursue
this course, and consequently he cannot de-
part from it. If war ensues, blame must al
tach solely to the impotency or w'lfal design
of the authorities at Washington.
On Wednesday afternoon last, U. ). sol
der belonging to one Of the companies sta
toned at Yellow Medicine, was stabbed by
an Indian, who it was supposed is one OF the
surv wing sons of Inkpadutah-a twin brother
of the one killed some weeks since, by FLAN.
DREAu's party.
The soldier was not expected to survive.
About 800 troops were at Yellow Medi
ere when MIR. forces left, and others were
met on tie way up.
The Indians appear bold, and say the troops
dare not pass through their country.

WHAT THEY SAY OF Us.-We believe there
are more croakers in st. Paul, who, with
their hands in their pockets and eyes shut
from very lazincss to what is going on around
them, are forever yawning, and with lugubr-
Gus countenances. fretting about dull times,
ruined crops, &c, than outside of our own
city. Strangers coming here, even at this
sol. etimes dull season the country over, are
astonahed with the hustle and business going
on. We have seen SD palpable slack in it
yet. We clip the following from the cores
pcnlence Of the Republican Adrocate:
FRIEND RUSSELL The busy scene on ST..
Anthony street must make q favorable inn
preston on strangers from much larger cities
where no such activity in business life is visi-
ble, excepting New York. A large amount
of building is being d me in handsome, SUBJ
stantial manner, mostly of stone. ST. An
thony street is almost impossible for the
piles of building ial on the sidewalk in
the street the digging of cellars under the
streets, the grading and laying down Of gas
pires, &C., with general mixing up of vchi-
cles bipeds and quadrnpeds renders the nav
igatinn of our thoroughfarrs rather unpleas-
ant in hot day after shower. Fast town
this-three theatres, one ampbitheatre, seve
raj concerts, Shakspearan readings, tw'
Constitutional Conventions, lots Of 2.40 nags
and any quantity of telegraph boys and rail
road men. Which will come out ahead is
| hard to tell Nous Verr0ns.

The Indians OH the Frontier.

Reports which come from the Agency. and
from Yellow Me 'icine give an om'nous ok
to our relations with the Sioux. The deci-
Sive demand Of the Superintendent upon
them for their aid in capturing or Furnishing
Ink pa-du-a has been the principal cause OF
the dsahection of the Sioux.
Yello,c Medicine is the SPOT where the in
terest is now concentrated. The white fam
Ties who resided there have moved into camp,
and the houses of the Missionaries have been
fortified by frien lily Indians.
On the fifteenth solder of the Tenth
was stabbed BY all Indian Of one of the lands
encamped near. He was going for water
about dusk, when he was MOI tally stabbed
IN back, but was living at last accounts.
The Indians fed for protection into the Sis
seton camp. Maj. Sherman sent an officer
aud guard to demand his surrender, which
was not only refused, but the red devils &C
tu.lly levelied their guns on them. Tie Of
ficer had not sufficient force to compel his
demand. He returned AID reported to Maj.
s;hel man, who sent battery to Fl on them:
on this, the Iwlians requested a truce until
morning when they would give up the pri>o-
ner. 1t was granted, but up to the evening
of that d,y, be ha not been given up.
The Indiars have assumed bold and I'M
pucient, and defiant air. Their num ers are
variously estimated by some as high as TO-
600, giving about, say 1000 warriors. What
side taey will take, no one can say. The
bands composing them are the Yanckton
Lower Sioux, S.ssetons and Lac qui parle
Indians.
What will now take place, is impossible to
say. The contingency of war is possible
bnt we would not neellessly raise an alarm
We await some m re explicit and well found
ed news from Yellow Medicine.
P.S The latest news is that an arms
! ticr had been effected, with tue prospect o.
f! harmony Hereafter.

SAlNT CLnUD July 10, 1901.
To the Editors ofthe Ninnesotian:
GENrs: saw in the Pioneer and Demo-
crat, of the 10th Of July communication
fi"m Hon. H. G. WAR, defining his political
Ios!tion. | was very much. surprised as
we'll as his constituency, at the course he
mas !opted in his communication. My OBJ
.iect IN addressing this to you is to place right
ly the Hon. gentleman's political history, as
he gave i. to me last October, and on the 9Th
of the present ninth.
Mr.. WAIT last October, attended with my
self and OF hers as delesatc to the Repubi-
Convention held at Fremont City, in
Wright county. to 10 inmates candidate for
representative to the Territorial Legislature;
and th-rc made good Republican speech.
Until this time supposed he belonged to
the Democratic party. He then most EN-
phatically stated to me that he was Re-
publican in action, sentiment and sympathy.
When the delegates met at Monticello, in
May last, to se'cct candidates to the Consti-
tntional Convention, they unanimously Sc
lected Mr.. Wait. l was then questioned as
to his Repubicanism, and made the above
statement to the Convention. About the
lst of July. was in St. Anthony and st.
Paul; then heard that the Democratic party
claimed the gentlemen as one of their party
said to my friends that from the repeated
conversations | had had with Mr.. WAIT,
cred him true to the Republican party
On my return to st. Cloud, saw Mr.. WAIT
on the 9Th of the present m,nth and stated
to him the rumors ahOat in regard to his po-
l.t.cal faith. Mr.. WAIT then assured me in
the presence of third person, that no one
had any reason in charging him with chan
ging his opinions in regard to his Republican
principles; that he was still an out and out

but continued he, Il consider they as party.
have departed from the true Democratic
faith, and cannot act in concert with them.

Mr. WAIT fut er siid to me, ''it is true l
owe IN part my election to some of the dem
o:rats, but do not consider that incident

concert with PARTY can have no political

Tl,a West End.

The REQUISITES met again yesterday, but 20
quorum being present, the calling OF the roll
and swearing in Of members was further de
ferred. Meantime, let the public bear in
mind that these men are going through daily
with the forms Of business ordering their
reports printed to the number OF 900 Gu
pies, and all that sort of transaction, and not
one of them has yet quail ed HIMSELF or
caused himself to be qualified, to a t legal,
in body of the kind wherein he claims to b.
member; and further that no quorum has
yet been present.
The time was consumed yesterday by the
leader of the movement" GoRMAN, in
regular stump speech of three hours length.
We heard portion Of it only, but during the
time We were in, became catstied the distin-
ruished Elk. is still convinced in his own mind
that he is tie greatest man now living. He
made one important admission, however
which we are bound to note. He acknowl-
edged. Indirectly, that the question Of using
Vi. ,lence to dispnsess the Republicans of the
Hall on Tuesday morning of last week, ,cas
discussed in the Democratic caucus held that
morning. But, said GoRMAN, 1--WE resolved to
be peaceable. And why did we make that
resolve? We did not intend that these
Kansas shriekers should be gratiied in max
ing political capital out of any overt act we
might commit. Had we attempted to enter
tn at Hall, blood would have been shed, and
til at was just what the Black Republicans
wanted to see donc.'
so then, Governor! 1t was not disposi-
ton TO ensure peace and harmony among the
members of the two parties that prompted
the action of your caucus, but you OILY re-
trained from blood aud violence because OF
the unpopularity Of such move. We have
quite different opinion of the motive which
governed the action of your people on that
occasion, but still, we are willing to let it
stand in the position you place it.
