Indian Troubles CONFLICTING Re
ports from the Black Hills.


CHICAGO, May 6.
The Tribune's st. Paul special from
Bismarck reports that n large party, led
agent at Lich Lake, will leave to-mor-
row for the Black Hills. The company
is made up of parties from Pilsburg,
Grand Rapids, and various parts OF
Minnesota. Letters from Thos. Mad.
den aud others contain e~xtravagant
mining exports Nels Velslorem, Of
from his claim, two miles above the
Rapid City Mills, II pound Of gold.
Another resident of Bismarck writes
that he washed nut sl2 a day from his
claim on Dead wood Creek, immediate.
ly adjoining. The Rapid City claims
are paying ten cents to the pan. Allen
and Conear, of Hill City, with four
men, took out in one day $1,000, in.
stead of 5000, as recently reported.
A report is brought into Standing
Rock that a chief called Slave met or
overlook a party of whites going TO the
Black Hills on the Fort Pierre route.
when Slave undertook To go into the
gold hunters camp. carrying a white
flag, but was shot dead. His party
tTl0u 10 TecONeT his DOuN, Dut NeIe
driven Off, and had to wait until the
whites moved on. It is said on the
part Of the gold hunters that slaves
band had been following them several
days, probably hoping to stampede
and steal their horses; and that they
warned Slave to so back before firing
OH him.
Most of the young Sioux have left
Standing Rock osten>iblv for hunting.
Scouts from the supposed hostile bands
keep watch day and night in the yicin-
ity of Fort Lincoln.
j. j. Shaw. formerly proprietor Of
the Merchants Hotel, st. Paul. ar
rived home yesterday. direct from the
Black Hills. He SAYS gold was as
scarce there AZ here. The miners who
had been there since June of last year
gave no evidence of possessing gold.
There were some evidences OF gold in
the hills, but reports of rich discover
les he does not tielieve. The Indians.
he SAYS. are extremely hostile, always
on the alert to steal horses or cattle and
Kill stragglers. He considers it mad
ness for any one to go there with u
view of bettering his fortune.

BY reference to our local columns,
it will be sseen that the Democrats
County Convention of Eureka county,
while sustaining, from ~instructing its
delegates tosthe State, Convention has
unanimously passed resolutions of
confidence Id Ess distinguished
statesman from Ohio, whose name
heads this article. We believe this to
be wise, and while we are on principle
opposed to binding Instructions upon
State delegations, we hope our Carson
convention will follow the course in
augurated, as far as this State is con-
cerned, by Eureka, and express its
confidence in a distinguished man, a
pronounced aspirant for the presiden-
tial office, whose record and whose
personal. character offer an assurance
that his administration, in the event of
his success, will be an honor and a
profit 10 the land.
The SENTINEL is Independent in
politics, and proposes to remain neu-
trail throughout the opening campaign.
Its only desire is to aid, so far as its in
fiuence extends, in securing the u c
cess of a pure and able man for any
office for which he may be named, ir-
respective of his party affiliations. We
have repeatedly advocated the claims
of Thurman for the Democratic and
of Bristow for the Republican nomina-
ton. We are glad to see that in the
more populous States the movement in
favor of each of them is daily grow
ing stronger. In the ven of the NOM
nation Of the q at Cincinnati and the
other at ST. Louis, the country can
look forward with q sigh of relief to
an era Of four years unstained by pres
idential or cabinet jobbing. We hope
To see Bristow receive from the Re-
publicans of this State as hearty In in
dorsement as that which we be believe
the Democrats win give Thurman.
And one word of advice to the partl-
= n on either side: The ton of the
entire Republican press OF the East
goes to show that Bristow is the only
man with whom they can hope for
success, and on the other hand no one
in the Democratic ranks save Thur
man would seem to possess those
qualities of heart and intellect which
will command the confidence of the
masses as against the distinguished
Kentuckian. rs y

The NEGRO VorE.-We call atten-
stiont to information in our telegraphic
columns concerning a recent address
promulgated by an organization of in
dependent colored voters in the city OF
Washington. 1t takes decided ground
against thesR Republican party. We ok
press no opinion as the merits or truth
fulness of the charges made against the
Republicans as a party, in the docu-
ment referred to; but when we consid-
er that the colored vote has ever been
almost solidly Republican, such a
detection appears to US to possess con
siderable political importance.

THANKS, GENTLEMEN. We are
again placed under obligations to the
Western Union Telegraph Company
for furnishing a telegraphic item re-
garding the sentence Of death of j. w.
Rover, at Winnemucca. We had pre-
yiously received a full account by
mail, which appears in our col
umns, but it shows that the telegraph
is giving the United States mail a close
game in furnishing interior towns of
our State with news.
