mission received at the hands o. Sitting Bull
Secretary Schurz is said to be immensely
pleased with the affair and is quite jolly ovel
II, The Bull having deliberately rejected all
offers to return to the guardianship and pro
lection of the L. 8. government and made his
final choice to cast his future lot with the
British, they become responsible for his behav,
Tor and must see to it that he keeps the peace
with Uncle Sam. Indeed the British officers
who were present at the interview fairly warn
ed him that if he rejected the present offers OF
the l. S. and hereafter crossed the line, he
would be outlawed and would have the red
coats as well as the |. 5. troops to fight. In
short, John Bull thus finds himself very un
willingly burdcned with white elephant and
Secretary Schuz enjoys it as good joke
taking credit to himself for its sole manage

HOME MATTERS.
Personal.

Hon X. Z. Goodell passed through Ottawa on
Saturday last, spending few days in the fifty.
Judge Miller was called to Chicago on 6atur-
day last by the serious illness of his wife. The
Judge returned to his court on Monday but Mrs
Miller is still quite i'll.
Mrs. Judge Leland was quite severely, though
not seriously hurt by Il fall while hanging pic
lures Il few days ago.
Mr.. and Mrs. II. T. Gilbert on Friday evening
last returned from their visit north.
Z. s. Barney, for long time of this city, lately
foreman and part owner Of the Joliet Sun, is
about to take his departure from that city for Il
new home in California. Success to you, Ed.
G. ~ Pratt will remove his 90 cent store on

The discrepancy is certainly enormous, and
not 1t all comfortable, How does it come to be
so?
The state and county may be able to explain
their share. The last legislature was a reckless
one and laid taxes as readily a city council.
The county, since Ottawa got the free bridge no.
ton, has not little to pay for other bridges The
tbwn tax is what bothcrs good many. It was
levied TO meet contingencies in the railroad
cases, too long and complicated for clear en-
PLANTATION here and now, but We have no doubt
Mr.. Lynch. the supervisor, can and will explain
it satisfactorily to any citizen who desires the in
formation. We only know what we learned from
Mr.. Lynch that il is for legitimate purposes which
cannot he avoided, and that the people ought 10
understand, otherwise it would not be leyiedn
The city taxes are outrageOusly high. Though
some increase was absolutely necessary TO pro-
vide for indebtedness coming due next year, and
for forced improvements, there are nevertheless
causes for "kicking.' While the school tax is
higher by 5000 than ever before. We deem that
tax Of S25, 600 absolutely necessary, owing to the
increase of the district and the new organizations
which takes the schools out Of the hands Of the
city government IL toto, leaving them unable TO
ask or receive fayOrs.

The SaIt Supply.

Now that a number of mills are in active operation in the Glo, District, crushing and concentrating our rich ores, the question of Il salt supply is one of much interest and importance to our mill owners. IL is Inconvenient and expensive to import sal; either from ;he east or south, and unless some large deposit of this much needed ar iicle can be found within a reasonable proximity tO these mines 1t will prove an unfortunate feature among the many bright prospects of that district. We have reason to hope, however, that our mill owners will find happy issue out of this dilema, for we have reliable in formation that extensive salt springs exist on the Indian reservation a few miles east of Salt River and about thir- ly-five miles from the Globe mines. AL so that a considerable deposit of salt has beea found near the San Carlos agency, which is also about thirty five miles from the mines. If this be true 1t will prove @ valuable and oppOrtune discovery. The distance being short and transportation easy, the production and delivery of the article would ncith- er be difficult nor expensive.
 
 It is true the deposits are Ou the Indian reservation, but the Indians could and should be utilized in the pre- paration and transportation nf the salt, they could afford 10 deliver salt cheap CT than any one else, and vel profit by the trade, hence the miner and Indian would be mutually benefited by this la bor.
 We understand Agent Hart has sug- gesied that should a company desire tp sal works on the reservation, it is probable that the Indian Office would grant permission provided the company would furnish the sail requir- ed al the agency, which would be but d trfling consideration. We certainly consider this field where a little keeI enterprise will issue a large and easy profit, thus ad ling al important fta- ture 10 our home wealth and industries.

Bills Introduced.

Among the hundreds of bills just introduced n Congress, we notice the following of some interest to frontier people:
 By Cannon-For the admission of Utah.
 By Kidder-For the admission of Dakota. Establishing a land district in the Black Hills. Organizing the Territory or Pembina.
 By Banning Transferring Indian affairs tu the War Department.
 By Notwithstanding f1r the ac- ceptance of the invitation to appoint a General Commissioners, at salary of not over 5000, and of fifteen addition al Commissioners, eight 10 be skilled arti,ans and seven scientific experts, at the pay of not exceeding $lO0O each, to attend the Paris Exposition. One or two vessels 10 be furnished to trans port all articles fIr exhibition.
 Several bills to remonetizc silver have been introduced.
 Senator Booth has introduced a bill 10 authorize the Secretary of the Int riOr to declare forfeited grants of lands to railways in certain cases. IL will, if passed, empower the Secretary to declare the land grants of the Texas Pacific and Atlantic and Pacific roads through Arizrna and other Territories and States forfeited.

Senator Morton ls Dead.


 The death nf Senator Oliver P. Nor ton, If Indiana, occurred at his resi- dence in Indianapolis on November 1, at 5.3O P. m. Although the D Iblic Ina, been in measure prepared for these sad Iidings, y,tevcn now they fall heaY- fly upon every heart, and even his wa:mlSt "ppusurs cannot but feel deep regret. NIr. Mo.trn was cnncious un- lil within an hourot hIs death. On tie afternoon of Oct 9, Drs. Thomp- son and Wo album, hIS attending phy- sicians. t,ld him that he must die The news was received quietly and without any manifestation of emotion. and after a momenlury pause, he remarked that he would rat. er die than live in his helpless condition, tn be burden to his friends, thus evincing that great magnanlmouS spirit to the last. The wonderful intellectual and debating powers Of Senator Norton were dis played carly in life. His physical strength and mental energies were over taAed in the exciting and brilliant cam paigns during and immediately follow ing the war, and his health has been much impaired ever since. Since his trip to Oregon he has been lingering in a very critical condition, and finally has passed away beloved, honored and re- gretted by a nation. A great and good man has gone. American liberty has lost one of its grandest defenders, and the Republican party bright light and a strong arm.
