The indians 10 Becomc Stock. Growers.

Gen. Sheridan favors the plan of sup
plying the Sioux Indians with cattle
and sheep for stock-raising. He be-
lieves that the care of flocks and herds
would, in a measure, assimilate with
their uncivilized pursuits-chasing the
game-and when they understand that
this kind of industry will bring security
and comfort to their families, and be
remunerative besides, it will not be
many years before their condition will
be much elevated above what it is now.
There are, of course, a hundred details
connected with this plan, such as the
early training of the young, the instruc-
ton of the women in domestic duties,
the establishment of repositories for
their moneys, which have been thought
of and could be readily applied. But
it is claimed that it would be utterly
useless to attempt the system without
first placing the Indian bureau in the
only executive department of the gov
eminent relating to interior affairs
where the personnel is permanent, and
changeable rs it is in the political de-
partment.

he seuthsra eelIcy.

How do you like the President.
southern policy? is a question put te
us repeatedly during the past week.
Well, we confess, that in its effects uI
20 the present time, the southern polio,
of the administration has not met with
our hearty approval, mol has it received
tho endorsement of Republicans gen.
orally in this section of the country.
What has happened in South Corolina
and Louisiana, is a bitter pill to them;
but the large majority of Republicans
have made up their minds to take it.
The most they allow themselves to do
is to prophesy that the south will show,
that the confidence reposed in it by
President Hayes is not deserved, and
that it soon will be necessary for the
Administration to change its attitude.
Still, realizing and thankful for the
narrow escape they have had from de-
feat, they loyalty adhere to the Repub-
lican Administration, in preference to
giving the other side any comfort flom
Republican divisions. They see that if
they leave the President there is really
nobody to go to. Neither Blaine, Nor
ton or Conkling has the strength to
form another party that would do more
than give the Democrats an easy victo-
ry, They agree, therefore, to stand by
MIR. Hayes, and suchis the disposition of
the strongest believers in the contuma-
cy of the south; while they shake their
heads over Mr. Hayes policy, they see
nothing but the advent of something
worse, if they abandon his administra-
ton. Our political friends, therefore,
will stand by the Republican party as
strong as ever, and as the more doubt
full men are called back to it from con-
viction of the wisdom of the Presidents
course, the party becomes stronger
than it has been for the past six years.
No matter what the Presidents friends
may think of the southern policy. no
matter that many of If leaders do not
believe as he does, there is a mighty
feeling among all good citizens, that
President Hayes is q wise, an able and
a sincere He has their sympathy
and their confidence; they know that he
is as honest as he is brave; that he will
be the first to acknowledge the failure
of his policy if it does fail, and that his
method of correcting errors will be as
broad and firm as his method of con-
Citation and concession has been. Let
all Republicans take courage, and put
their trust in the righteousness of their
cause.

His i" Notes Buy the Way"
HAT CREEK, Wyo.. April

HAT CREEK, Wyo., April "a.
To the Cheyenne Leader:
The e. s. B. II. stage which left
Cheyenne on Monday morning last
carried nine passengers-Mr. J. NJ.
S~tudebaker, of the great wagon firm of
Studebaker Bros; Gen. Dan Easement,
the noted railroad builder; Judge Nc
Laughlin, Judge Whitehead and Mr..
G.. NJ. Brown, of Cheyenne; Mr.. Rob-
inson, of Montana; two ladies, and
your correspondent. A storm
spat itfully upon us from the time we
entered the beautiful valley of the
Chugwater until this evening, but the
fall was very light, and between here
and Fort Laramie melted as fast as it
fell.
Little of greenness graced the land
scape until we reached the Chug, where
fat cattle were picking the new grass,
then about three inches high. Be-
tween Phillips, where an excellent din
ner was partaken of, and Fort Lara
mic, fully 100 wagons and 200 men
were passed. Between here and the
Fort there are now camped about 70
men, with some 40 teams. In this val
ley 1 can see from the window Of my
room fully 100 camp-fres, around which
are camped probably 800 men, with 100
teams. The men are from every por-
ton of the world-a mixture of Eng
fish, Scotch, Irish, Germans, French
men, Italians, Russians, Cinnamon,
etc. They are full of hope, the low
ering skies and chilling breezes failing
to cool their ardor in the least.
All day long VIZ have been rolling
through one of the finest valleys 1.-THE
Running Water sun ever shone upon.
1t is covered with a rank growth of
bunch grass, now fresh and green, and
from four to six inches high, making
unexcelled ~pasturage for stock. In
fact, the feed is now fine all the way
from the Chug to this stream.
A jollier crowd than ours could
scarcely be gotten together. All have
campaigned and camped out before,
and all enjoy themselves splendidly.
We have ~endeavored to do justice to
the excellent meals furnished us by
Phillips at Chugwater, Frank Mont
gomery at Rawhide Buttes, and here
at Jack Bowman's, the supper table
from which we have just risen having
been loaded down with good things.
Judge Mclaughlin is developing a n
alarming appetite for pie; Dan Case
ment fiirts with all the pretty girls he
sees along the road; S%tudebaker and
Judge Whitehead devote their entire
attention to caring for our female
freight; Brown has taken charge of a
50-pound sack of ginger-snaps which
were dropped by some careless pilgrim;
while John Featherstun, division SUI
~perintendent, who Joined us at Lara
mic, and your correspondent, both
armed to the teeth, ride +" on top " and
keep vigilant watch over the outfit.
We leave for Custer at 5 in the morn
ing. RAFFERTY,.

Ssnsibls.
Judging from the action taken by the

OuOkt1Ak x1VkA VIC 0NVAOAA SSAOA Ny SA~
Custer City mass meeting, an account
of which appears in this issue, the office
seeking carpet-baggers who vancouver
the movement for a new territory in
the Black Hills, have not reached that
city. 1t is apparent that the good sense
of the bona fide residents of the mining
settlements in the Hills is opposed at
present to any new organizations if they
were left alone and u~ninfluenced by the
specializing managers who have the
matter in charge, a large majority of
the hardy miners and non-ofice seeking
residents of the Black Hills would vote
in favor Of postponing action until the
official survey has finally located the
eastern boundary of Wyoming Terri
tory. If the line should leave a respec-
table portion of the new settlements in
Dakota, a movement looking to the re-
moval of that line west mi degree,
would certainly meet with the approval
of the miners and business men in the
Hills. For what is the pretended OBJ
ject of those who are in favor of a sep
arate territorial organization for the
Black Hills? 1t is claimed that the
people there need the capital nearer the
Hills, and thus save much valuable
time.
So far as the capital question is
concerned, the Black Hills, if attached
to Wyoming, would stand a better
chance for obtaining h ecapital than the
southern part of this territory does for
retaining it; for a majority i'll the legis-
lature can move the capital at any time.
Local self-government, is also one of
the arguments put forward by the
friends of a new territorial organiza-
ton.
The legislature of Wyoming has
already provided for local government
in the Black Hills, by the organization
of the counties of Crook and Pease,
covering the mining settlements IN the
Hills, and the region adjacent to the
Big Horn. Whenever the people of
the Black Hills ascertain from the U.
s. survey that they belong to Wyoming,
or whenever Congress shall, by a change
in the boundary lines, locate all the
Black Hills settlements within the
Territory Of Wyoming, the people of
the northwestern corner of that terri
tory will enjoy the privileges and op-
portunities of self-government now
possessed by the most favored localities
neal the southern border. i
We think the people of Custer City
and vicinity have done wisely in refus-
ing to give their support to a project,
which, at best, is yet premature and
very doubtful in its probable results;
and we trust that the people of Dead
wood and the settlements neal that
place, will, upon mature and thought
full consideration of the subject, decide
to follow the example of their fellow
citizens of Custer CITY.

Abandonment. Of military po,,..

When Gen. Sheridan requested the
100000 appropriated for the two new
posts, he agreed to abandon six of the
old ones-which are not yet, so far as
we know, decided upon. From a dis
lance table published-last year, it ap-
pears that the Tongue river post will
De 40 miles from that IN the Big Horn,
taking it for granted the latter will be
located at the mouth of the Little Big
Horn. The Tongue river post is about
236 miles, and the Big Horn post (if
located as stated will be 1863 miles from
the mouth of the Yellowstone.

Spotted Tail to be Made a Colonel in the
u, s, Army,

The prepriety of re%warding Spotted
Tailforhis recent ervicesinsuccessfully
negotiating with the hostiles, has been
discussed by Sherman, Sheridan and
the Commissioner on Indian affairs.
The latter and probably the President
will recommend Congress to authorize
the appointment of the distinguished
chief to a colonelcy in the army. Sher-
man and Sheridan favor the idea.
We think a corporal's warrant and a
suit of army clothing would answer the
same purpose.
