Latest From the Indian Country.

following letter from Father Genin.

who has gone to the country of the
hostile Indians on a peace mission.

Editors Of Superior Times.
DEAR SIRs:- great part of the
hostile Sioux, after the talk they
had some time ago with Spotted
Fail, concluded to surrender. on
such terms as he offered them, no
doubt in the name Of the Govern
ment. When they went to the mill
tary camp they found out Spotted
Tail had deceived them in this,
that they had to surrender all arms
and poniss, while Spotted Tail had
assured them they would only have
10 surrender the arms taken from
the officers and soldiers in the Gus
ter fight, last June. Therefore quite
a large number of them took TO the
war path again, and have now gone
north westw ard to meet their old
leaders.
| have intimation that | will meet
quite crowd of them on my way.

of the trap rock formation, known
as the Cooper Range," south of
Superior. He has made general
examination of Ashland and Bay
field counties, and expects to finish
Douglas county in a week or ten
days. The result OF his present OBJ
servations, together with those M made
by him in the same field about three
years ago, will appear in the report
of the State GeoIogist, to be pub
lished next winter. Prof. Sweet
says the formations of this county,
being similar to those of Ontonagon
and Keweenaw counties, Michigan,
warrant the existence of rich copper
veins, which eFb thorough and
systematic exploring can discover,
and that the copper range affords a
hopeful field for the seeker after
that mineral.

Editing paper is a nice busi-
ness. If we publish jokes, people
say We are rattle headed If we
omit jokes, they say we are fossil
lied. IF we publish original matter,
they blame US for not giving selec-
tions. If we publish selections,
folks say we are lazy for not writing
something they have not read in
some other paper. If we give a
complimentary notice, we are cen
sured for being partial. If we do
not give complimentary notices,
folks say we are jealous. If we do
not cater to the wishes of the ladies.
the paper is not fit to tie up par
Gel or make into a hustle. If we
remain in our Office and attend to
our business, folks say we are too
proud to mingle with our fellows.
If we so out, they say we never at

poor clothes, folks say business is
bad. If we wear good clothes, they
say we never paid for them. Now
what are we to do?

WEALTH OF THE DAlRY.-The
wealth of some dairying districts is
enormous. Herkimer, n. Y, is
said to ship annually over 17,o0o,-
600 pounds Of cheese, and 100000
pounds Of butter-worth 81, 100000.
Little Falls, n. Y, perhaps as much.
st. Albans, Vt, ships 100000
pounds of cheese, 2,75o,o0O pounds
of butter, worth in the market 81,
250,00O. The village of W ellington,
Ohio, shipped 100000 pounds OF
cheese in 1869, worth 100000.
The products of the dairy are sold
for cash, and hence the returns are
quick. This industry enables the
manufacturer to reduce large bulk
of food into small compass, through
the two processes of feeding cows
and manufacturing the productions.

started on wild municipal career
some years ago, determined to have
all the modern improvements and a
great many thousands of people.
Large sums of money were bor-
rowed, and in short time hnely-
paved streets, and water-works, al d
all the comfortable and convenient
things of a modern city, grew up
under the magic touch of workmen.
It became a city of Aladdin-like
build, and people traded their castles
in Spain for palatial and thrifty
business houses and homes in the
healthy climate of Baxter Springs.
Nevertheless there was not that
great inpouringssof people that Bax-
ter Springs had invited and expect
ed, and the public-spirited capital
lists who had furnished the money
to make a great city without inhab-
ltants began to want the interest on
it. For two years there was de-
fault, and the public-spirited capital
lists brought suit and secured iud O.
ment. The matter was appealed.
and meantime the few who lived in
Baxter springs, to relieve themselves
ofthe personal responsibility, packed
their goods and moved outside the
city limits The bond-holders NAV
seize upon the paved streets with all
the modern Improvements. A new
city without these costly touches is
building up uncomfortably near by.

We believe that all plans for
the securing of ferry boat between
Superior and Duluth this season
have fallen through. 1t is not a
little humiliating to think that Su-
perior has no means of communl-
cation with Duluth, the railroads
and the outer world better than by
skiffs and row-boats; but such is
the fact. The tug Nellie Cotton
may make an occasional trip to our
dock, but our main reliance must be
on skiffs and small boats. A small
steam ferry boat could, we think,
find profitable employment here, ip
carrying passengers and freight,
towing scows, RATS, etc, and it is a
wonder that the field is not occupied
by some one.

SOME Baltimore capitalists, among
whom is President Garrett, of the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, are
organizing a new telegraph com,
pany to lay cable from Baltimore to
some point on the coast of France,
to break the present atlantic

A bill author;sing the enterprise

The Boston advertiser very aptly
observes, in speaking of the coming
trade revival, that as there is no
night without a dawn, so there is
no time of business depression with
out its promise Of revival For
more than three years the country
has been passing through q bitter
experience. People have talked
about it so much and so gloomily
that they have really come to be-
lieve there never was such a time OF
commercial dullness known. But
this is a great exaggeration. The
foundations of our prosperity are
still sound. Very few of our In
dustries have been seriously impair
ed; aud for those that have suffered
most there is still a solid structure
on which to rebuild them. With
the coming season general revival
of trade is looked for with we'll
founded confidence. 1t will be less
speculative, and therefore less ex-
posed TO rapid and injurious fluctu-
ations than the trade of the period
preceding the decline. The errors
of the past will serve as guides for
the future. With population OF
forty or fifty millions of industrious
people, there are fortunes in store
for those who are intelligently and
honestly engaged in supplying their
needs.

The ST Louis RIVER PINERIEs.-

The ST LOUIS RIVER PINERIEs.-
A Move To IMPROVE THE RIVER so
THAT LOGS MAY BE FLoATED Down
TO SUPERIOR BAY.-A petition to
the Minnesota Congressional dele
CATION is being numerously signed
N Duluth asking for government
grant of 25o, 900 acres OF land in ST.
Louis County, Minnesota, to aid in
The Improvement of the st Louis
River
1t would be grand, good thing
for the whole head of the lake,
Superior as we'll as Duluth, if that
river was improved o that logs from
the splendid pineries on its upper
waters could be foated down to oul
mills. If any man or set of meu
will level down the rapids, straighten
the channel, clear out the drift
wood, and fix that river so that logs
can safely navigate it, zoe would be
willing to give them a million acres
IN St. Louis county, and throw Ill
the Missaba Iron Range, the Yer
million Lake geld and silver mines,
LAWYERS Duluth copper and silver
bonanza, and a few millions, more
OF less. of Duluth bonds!
We understand some people in
Duluth object to signing the
petition, because fits object sue
ceeds Superior viii be benefited as
much as Duluth. Poor, narrow
minded selfish mortals, will they
never learn that good is universal
and cannot be confined within
bounds, that no man can use it for
his exclusive benefit? Suppose
this avenue is opened to the pineries,
and the logs come down to our
bays, are not the facilities for their
manufacture into lumber as good on
the Minnesota side as on the Wis
consin side? IT there is any differ
encc IN favor of Wisconsin the peo-
pie of Duluth will soon counter
balance it with the "snap, pluck, !"
etc, which brother Mitchell, of the
Tribune, says they possess in such
generous quantities.
But, seriously, let us all do what
les in our power towards getting
the river improved. The dele@a-
lion from our own State in Congress
should be urged to cooperate cor
daily with the Minnesota delega-
tion in any measure looking 10 that
end. Wisconsin men Presidents of
Milwaukee, Oshkosh, Green Bay
atc.) own a large bulk of the pine
land on the upper St. Louis, and if
'hey could bring it down they would
be very likely to prefer to manufac-
ture it in their own State-at this
point. The pine forests of this
country bear d faI greater relation
10 our future prosperity than m; ny
people seem to realize, and 10 eff
tort should be spared TO render
chem accessible and capable of be-
ny utilized.

Northern Pacific Railroad and the
Black Hills.

We understand that the board of
directors of the Northern Pacific
Railroad Company contemplate ex-
tending its lines west of the Missou-
ii, in Dakota, during the coming
summer. A strong incentive to
this course is furnished by the emf
grafton already commenced to the
Black Hills, by the route via
Chicago to ST. Paul and st. Paul to
Bismarck by rail, and thence from
Bismarck to Dc eadwood, a distance
OF 2l1 miles over stage and wagon
road, which is represented as one of
the best prairie routes ever opened
as it has abundant supplies of wood
and water, and a telegraph line is
now being erected. One of the
first emigration parties of the sea-
son arrived at Bismarck on the 18th
OF March by rail over the Northern
Pacific and the lines by which it is
connected with St. Paul and
Chicago, and a letter sent from
Bismarck on the 10th stated that it
expected TO start for Deadwood a
few days later in caravan or wag-
on train, containing from l25 to $50
wagons, and about 400 men, well
armed and supplied with a sufficient
quantity of ammunition to give
warm reception to hostile savages.
II distances over this route from
Chicago are as follows:
