city buildings, to demand of the Mayor
''bread or blood,' as announced by

wait upon the Mayor with the demand.
After an hours waiting and discussion,
the crowd dispersed. The Mayor had
been apprised of their coming, and
had placed strong guard of police

Gen. Sherman's Indian Policy.

Gen. Sherman says that all the avail
able troops in the north aud west have been
ordered to the Indian country, and that the
number will be amply sufficient to defeat the
hostile tribes. He does not believe, however,
that the Indian question can he settled until
the government enters upon the policy Of de-
priving the Indians Of their ponies, and COM
pelling them to 80 on foot. When this is
done the Indians will be comparatively power
less, and those upon their reservations will
never venture to leave them to go upon the
war-path. In regard to the reported death Of
Sitting Bull, Gen. Sherman says it will make
hut little difference whether it is true or not.
for the Indians have fully twenty As capable
warriors to command them in case of battle.

THE BITE OF A DOG.

From the Kansas City Times.
Yesterday morning Mrs. Geo. Burris,
the wife of locomotive engineer on
the Missouri Pacific railway, had oc.
casion to drive dog from the house.
The animal turned upon the lady and
before she was prepared to avoid it,
bit her upon one of the thumbs. The
dog was sort of family pet and WITS
not considered to be either vicious or
dangerous. Mrs. Burris tied up her
wounded thumb and proceeded about
her domestic duties as if nothing had
occurred. About l o'clock she was
taken with a severe sickness, and be-
fore any one was. aware of what was
the matter went into violent convul-
sions. She foamed at the mouth and
barked and snapped like 4 vicious dog.
DIR. Bigger was summoned to the Bur.
ris residence, which is on Wood
street, just over the state line, anu at
once prescribed for the sufferer. It
required the united efforts of several
strong men to hold the sufferer in her
painful paroxyisms.
Capt: Moore held the swapping and
biting lady while chloroform was ad-
ministered. This was the only means
by which the pain of the sufferin
lady could be relieved or by which any
one could approach her in her terrible
spasms. DR.. Bigger is reluctant to
believe that this is a case of hydropho-
bia. The time between the time when
Mrs. Burris was bitten and the time
when she was seized with commissions
was SO short that it seemed almost inn
possible that the virus from the dogs
fangs could have passed into her sys.
tenn. But it may have been possible
that the dog reached one of the main
veins in the hand, and the poison
might have then passed through the
arm into the system. 1t required the
united efforts of two men to control
tue sufferer in her paroxysms last eve.
ming. DR.. Bigger has been obliged to
keep hef under the influence of mar
cotics during treatment. But the case
looks very serious to look at it from
the brightest standpoint

out the line and looking at the flies,

THAT BOGUS CIRCULAR.

Our readers will remember that a
few weeks ago we mentioned GER
tain circular purporting to be issued
from the Republican headquarters
at Chicago, asking that list Of names
be sent in, &c. Since then the mat
ter has been ferreted out by the Re-
publican Central Committee of Hi
nois, and traced to Doctor Anderson.
Chairman of the Democratic Central
Committee Of Wisconsin. The par
| ticulars are as follows:
The Republican Committee OF Hi
nois employed detectives to watch
for the party calling for letters ad-
dressed to +. A. Remick, as directed
in the circular. 1t was soon found
that a boy always called for those
| letters and Carried them to tie office
of James Il. DoolHtie, who practices
law in Chicago, though residing at
Racine, Wis. Farther inquiry de-
veloped the fact that from Chicago
the letters were forwarded to John
G. Remick of La Crosse, who is a
tool of DR.. Anderson, and who had
used the name of his son, F. A. Re-
mick, q lad of only 20 years, in sign
ing the fraudulent circulars. Judge
Doolittle denies in published card
having had anything to do with the
matter, but admits that a clerk in his
office received tho letters and for
warded them to La Crosse. The de-
tectives however say they saw sew
cral of the letters given by the boy to
a man, of whom they give q descrip-
ton answering perfectly to Judge
Doolittle. Their descriptions were
made in writing, and sworn to. Far
ther inquiry was made of the janitor
of the building, who the man was
occupying room 8, description be-
ing given, and the janitor gave the
name Of Doolittle. 1t is hard to be-
lieve that man Of Judge Doolittie'5
standing could be party to such
base tricl1ery; but under the circum-
stances, something more than mere
denial is necessary to clear him of
suspicion.

CONGRESSIONAL.

To-day most of the delegates to
the Congressional convention will be
elected, and no doubt each of them
with prejudlces in favor of some
iavorite. We hope, however, these
prciudices will not be so strong as
to prevent the delegates from care
fully viewing the field and weighing
the consequences Of their action in
convention. He who fails to recog-
nize aud admit the importance of
making such q nomination as will
larmonize the too marked discord-
ant elements of the party in the
District, is either short sighted or
less o friend to the cause shan the
adherent Of particular aspirant.
The result of the judicial election
last spring is lesson to which the
convention should give heed. The
nomination Of man for Congress
who is identified as a prominent
member Of either Of the antaSonistic
factions of the party would be dan
Gerous. The convention must avoid
doing this, to insure certain victory
in November. Another thing to be
given due consideration is the stand
ingof the nomineereiativo to the"ring
politician" elemento heparty, which
has become so obnoxious TO the peo-
plc, and which must be rebuled, or
the party suffer defeat, Above all,
the nominee should be man on
whose public and private life no
shadow Of suspicion rests. In short,
if the District fails to closely follow
the example of the National conven-
ton, defeat is to be apprehended.
The nomination Of Hayes was the
defeat Of all rings it insured hor-
mouy, he being unconnccted with
either of the factions so bitterly
coutending in the primary canvass
II was emiueutly wise, in that the
nominee is man whose private aud
pubiic character il such that the
enemy is unable TO find the least
flaw therein. The nomination OF
Blaine would no doubt have been
received with great cclat, and fol
lowed with ga enthusiastic canvass
on the part of his friends; but the
conservative element would have
been estranged, and many votes lost
that Hayes is sure to get, The same
in a degree, is true Of other promt
ucut candidates, and undoubtedly tht
same viii prove true in our Con,
gressional District. The time when
stirring stump speeches, o ID Give
