INDIAN DEPREpATIoNs IN MINNEsorA.-
The subject of protecting the white
settlers from bands of rowing Indians
who Cypress them by extensive steal.
ing, is being every day agitated
complaints are made from all parts of
the frontier in relation to these trouble.
some fellows. The settlers have hard
work to live without supporting idle
Indians who come in numbers, like the
locusts Of Egypt, and devour their
substance.
The st. Anthony, Mimi, News in.
forms us that Sioux Indians to the
number of 23OO have been scattered
through the Big Woods. That is the
number, as reported by Little Sioux
himself. They have killed over 1000
deer, cutting off the supply upon
which many of the poorer whites re-
lied
The settlers say their presence is a
great nuisance. They are inveterate
beggars, and sometimes enforce their
applications by threats, though they
always retire when they are met bold
ly by the whites.

County Government.

Senator Tom Drummond writes to
his newspaper, the Vinton Eagle, as
follows
The question of county organization
has to-day, for second time, been I'M
der consideration. Two years ago the
Senate summarily killed all attempts
to adopt any other system, by indef-
nitcly postponing the House bill crea-
ting County Commissioners. A very
different disposition is manifested now.
As DR.. Davis, of Clinton, said in de-
bate to-day, "men who at the last
session were against all reform, We're
now yielding before the popular breeze,
and under its influence were willing
to do justice to the people"
The only difficulty has been to hit
on some repository for the financial
powers now so unwisely lodged in the
hands of one man, without at the
same time increasing the number of
officers and expense to the people. |
think the most feasible plan has been
proposed at last. Mr.. Wilson, of JEFF
fcrson, to-day introduced a series of
resolutions to the committee on town
ship and county organization, requir-
ing them to report Il bill of this ma
tire:
The township clerks to constitute a
Board of Supervisors, a majority Of
whom shall constitute a quorum for
the transaction Of business. They
shall hold four regular meetings of not
more than three days at each time in
one year, and each supervisor shall
be paid $3.50 per day. The Board
shall have power to levy all taxes, to
sit as a Board of equalization, to audit
all accounts where the amount is not
determined by law, to control the pub
lie buildings and other property of the
county, to loan the permanent School
Fund, to let contracts for public build
ings, bridges, &c, and in effect dis
charge all duties now required of the
County Judge except those of a Pro.
bate nature.
The Clerk of the District Court is
to be Clerk of the Board, and the Board
is required to keep journal of its
proceedings, and the votes Of mem
bers on any proposition may on de-
mand be entered on it by ayes and
noes.
Such an act will effcctually remedy
all the evils now complained OF, under
the present autocratic one-horse sys-
TEN. 1t will place all power where it
lcgitimately belongs, in the bands of
the people. Each township will have
its own representative in the county
legislature, who can represent the
wishes and interests of his township,
and will be directly responsible to
those who elect him. The enactment
Of such law will leave the County
Judge, what he ought to be, Judge
of Probate only. 1t is not improbable
that he will yet receive that title.
A bill substantially embracing these
provisions has already been reported
to the Honsc from the proper com
mittec, and with amendments will be
adopted, l think, without trouble.
