before our next issue it will be known
all over the country who are to be our
standard bearers in the coming great
contest. AT present Blaine seems to
take the lead, followed by Conkling,
Morton, Bristow and Washburne; the
latter having been dubbed the Great
Unknown" within the last four days
Whoever is to be the choice of the
delegates, we hope the proceedings
will be harmonious, and that plat.

can heartily endorse.

DAILY AND WEEKLY FOR 1875.
The approach Of the Presidential eloo-
tion gives unusual Importance to the
events and developments of 1876. We
shall endeavor to describe them fully,
faithfully, and fearlessly. lifa9 ll
THE WEEKLY SUN has now attained
circulation of over eighty thousand
copies. It's readers are fouId in every
state and Territory, and its quality is well
known TO the public. We shall not only en-
deavnr 10 keep il fully up to the old stand
ard, but to improve and add to its variety
and power. ttn.N 4ai4o
THE WEEKLY SUN will continue to
be thorough newspaper. All the news
of the day will be found In it, condensed
when unimportant, at full length when of
moment, and always, we trust, treated in
a clear, interesting and instructive znan-
ner.
1t is our aim to mako the Weekly Sun
the best family newspaper in the world.
1t will be fun of entertaining and nppro-
pirate reading of every sort, but will
print nothing to offend the most scrupu-
lous and delicate taste. 1t will always
contain tho most interesting stories and
romances of the day, carefully selected
and legbly printed.
The Agricultural Department Is a prom
inent feature in the Weekly sun, and its
articles will always be found fresh and
useful to the farmer. ir .t
Inc mum Der OF men lnQCpendonl m pol
itics is increasing, and the Weekly sun is
their paper especially. IL belongs 10 no
party, and obeys no dictation, contending
for principle and for the election of tire
host men. 1t exposes the corruption that
disgraces the country and threatens the
overthrow of republican institutions. 1t
has no fear of knaves, and seeks no favors
from their supporters.
The markets of every kind and the fash
/ ions are regularly repOrtod, ia. .i
The price Of tic Weekly Sun is one dol
lar a year for sheet Of Ssig,iis- pages, anu
..,ty-sIX columns. As this barely pays
the expenses of paper and printing, we
are not able TO make any discount or allow
| any premium to friends who may make
| special efforts to extend its circulation.
Under the now law, which requires pay
! year, with twenty cents the cost of pre-
| paid postage added, is the rate of subscrip-
| ton. 1t is not necessary 70 get up club
in order 10 have the Weekly sun at this
rate. Anyone who sends ono dollar and
| twenty cents will get the paper, postpaid,
| for year.

The Democrats have had full con-
troll of the House of Representatives
for the past six months. What have
they done to merit public confidence
and future support? Nothing! Their
labors have been barren Of any good
results The peoples time and money
have been recklessly squandered on
fruitless investigations, started for no
other purpose than to give the Demo
cratic party a little political capital
in the Presidential campaign. They
will not only fail TO secure this eapi-
tai, but they are likely to lose what
little they had formerly gained

Tho Sioux War ON the Black
Hills.

New YORK, May ia Cheyen-
ne dispatch of May Is says party of
forty men attempted to reach the
Black Hills, led by Billy Patterson,
a well known and intrepid plains
man, and the best armed Of any who
have entered the Indian country
They were forced to return, and ar.
rived here to-day. Their march both
ways was a series of fights. They
were first attacked on the 18th on Hat
Creek. On the same day they were
surprised at Indian creek, "a miles
south of Austin City, and fought for
four hours with the Sioux, under a
chief mounted on a gray horse, and
therefore supposed to be Little Big
man. He and another savage were
killed, and also several horses. Hen
ry LEM, Dane, was scalped and bu-
ried by the savages, fearfully mutt
lated, the sinews torn out of the nose
and the ear cut off. Capt. Eagan,
after returning toward Fort Lara
mic, in obedience to orders has again
moved forward in search Of prowling
bands.
