Sioux Skipping Out.

On the morning of August LIST, Thos.
Cosgrove, the white chief Of the Snakes,
left Crooks camp at the crack of day,

Reconnaissance of the hills and valleys
It Tho bsse Of the mountaiussx Agreat
pillar Of anoke had stood above The
horizon north of the camp for more than
a week, while eastward signal wreaths
had beensquntinyally ristng, sometimes
forming 4 long mystic colonnade Of
nrial architecture. Cosgrove directed
his course towards that point, and
reachsdltA ftera ride of fifteen miles.
He found the deserted site of a Sioux
village, around which the fire, still
smoulderipg, had swept off the grass.
The village had evidently contained
only part Of. the Indians who were en-
counteredh by Custer Terry and Gibbon.
There swer6 ices Of few stepees,eb
many wicky-ups were standing, and the
number Of families who had been en-
camped there were. estimated at about
600, containing about 2,400 persons.

How Wnisty Caused DIE Massacre Of
Fearless Fettemsn and HIS
Brave Band


Ten years ago the Sioux wer led BY
Red Cloud, and were very troublesome.
For the protection of the Bozeman
route, Forts Reno, Phil Kearney and
c. F. Smith were built, and it was at
Fort Phil Kearney, long since disman-
tied and destroyed, that there occurred
In that year-1s66e massacre, the
record of which was the hloodiest page
Of frontier history until the slaughter Of
Custer and his little army shocked the
world. In The LEADER Of July 18th we
published a full and graphic account Of
the Kearney massacre, from which we
quote; Va, svoo
~~On the day of the massacre the In
dams had attacked the wood train
The a~ssaulting force was not apper-
emily larger than 30 or 40 warriors.
These were driven off by the troops,
and Capt. Fetterman after routing
them followed the fleeing Sioux over
the bluffs and out OF sight of the post.
This was what theIndians expected and
desired They seemed to retreat before
Fetterman, and that officer, suspect
ing nothing of the trap that had been
set for him and his troops, pressed
them to point where the savages were

There are about $4,000 Of these Mon
golians now on these coasts, and owing
to the advance of our rich millionaires
who make countless billions out of their
importation, they are landing at the rate
of 1000 week, and more. Wherever
these heathens are employed, and they
are all over the state, white help must
60 back these men work cheaper than
the whites, at least till they get expert
ence, when they demand and receive
more wages than white man. Hence
there are thousands of honest, decent
men here now tramping all over the
country. cold and hungry, and sleeping
out OF doors, because Cinnamon are pre-
ferred to them. Even some Of the rich
1rishmen. and they are numerous here,
nave no men to work tor them but silent
Mongolians. They see what they see,
but can't tell others, as Pat or Bridget
would what they are witnesses of. They
act like machines, sleep in barns, or out
in the orchard, and do other things tor
the badly disposed and. impure which l
can't write about; and what they do no
body ever hears about, and there will
never be any evidence of those dark
deeds, except occasionally when ny
brid specimen in miniature sometimes
makes its appearance on the scene. This
last view OF the Chinese evil. which is
carefully suppressed by the press, but
! which is daily spreading like destruc-
tive cancer on The social body, will in a
few years entirely change and destroy
the standing OF the Caucasian race or
these coasts. The giant evil is gradually
advancing like the smooth but treacher

leap will come, and then "Eae Nictss.

MACHINE POLITICIANS.

This is the name given to the political
managers of the republican party. A
very excellent and appropriate name it
is and we have very grave DOUBTS but
that they will succeed in running the
machine in their own interests, and to
the destruction of republican institutions,
the coming presidential campaign.
This gloomy view is forced upon us be-
cause we look in vain for the evidence of
that fierce, honest, indignation of the
people, which should have been mani
tested all over the country at the shame
full disclosures of universal public cor
ruption in the government laid bare to
the world, on this, the centennialyea
OF American independence. 1t is pos
sible for corrupt politicians and officials
to deceive, to betray people trusting in
them, just as an employee may deceive
his employer, and yet, the evil done may
only be temporary, but when the black,
damning evidence of the guilt of those
they trusted is broughthome to the
guilty, when men step from high
places into the penitentiary, when
the world, on this centennial year, is
sounding, not our praise, but our infamy,
and when with all this evidence before
them, the popular voice is not heard in
indignant wrath reverberating through
the land, loud and strong, and terrible,
like thunder in the mountains, the peo-
pie themselves become parties to the
guilt that has shamefully robbed them
of their money, and, what is lmmea are
ably OF greater value, the republic Of its
fair name. To be sure portion of the
public press, the columns of which is
burdened with the record Of public in.
| fanny, speaks of the Indignation which
has been aroused all over the land by
the disclosures.at Washington, but, we,
fail to see the evidence of that indigna-
ton. On the contrary we note that mer
read the foul record as any other daily
news, comment on it in a light way
laugh when they should cry, excuse
/, when it is the interest OF party to do SO
i whisper when their combined voice:
should be Il tempest before which thu
robbers, the traitors would flee, beyon,
the bounds of the republic they have be
trayed TO shame We note too that tn,
machine politicians are preparing, moth
ing scareJ,to run the machine, on tn,
supposition that the average morality ant
honesty of the people is on u par will
their own.
And have they not grounds for sup
posing 50 when a senator of the Unite,
States at a public dinner the other da,
said, "Gentlemen | will give you sen
timent-
"Be honest as long es ii is the beS
policy.'
And we are told. that the senators sen
timent twas received with cheers an

of freedom.
