INDIAN WAR IN Observation-Disclosures have
been received at Fort Laramie that an officer
and several United States soldiers, with the
flke's Peak train, were surrounded by farty
Indians and tired upon. A company of cavalry,
has yet been heard from them. The excite
ment among the settlers in Nebraska is becom-
ing intense. There Is no doubt but that in
provide for them, the Indians are leaving their
reservations for the purpose of providing for
themselves at the expense of settlers, herders
and rauchmeu.

as space permits.
D. j., of Cosmos, Minnesota, writes a
communication in answer to c. Q. j., in
which he arises to explain and does explain,
to all appearances, in q satisfactory man
ner, at least the editor is satisfied to let

that anything of this or Of any other per-
sonal matter ever was permitted to get into

examinations can do no good unless to cause
bitterness and heart burnings can be con-
sidered good. We are Of the opinion
that our burdens are all heavy enough in

What is the proper way for a subordinate
Grange to get the annual pass word.
1st. To the first question we answer
that it is better always that cards should
be granted by vote of the Grange, but we
give it as our opinion that under the con-
ditions mentioned member may demand
card as right, and the Master and Secre-
tary would be justified in giving one;
though of course this should not occur ONLY
when it is impracticable to obtain vote of
the Grange.
I'd. A member would necessarislly be
dropped at the end of the year, for he
would not be entitled to the new annual
pass word but further than this we think
the matter should be regulated by tho
Grange in view Of all the circumstances of
the case. We have no doubt but that .
member may be dropped at the end Of q
quarter for the non payment Of dues.
Sd. Aslong as person is a member ofthe
Grange in good standing, whether square on
the books or not, we should say that he had
all the rights Of any other member. 4th.
The proper way to get the pass word is
to keep oil dues paid up and report your
new officers each year to the Secretary of
the State Grange. The above are given
simply as our opinions, and we hope if vs

retary Of the State Grange will set US right
