protested n returned. Mr.. Thomas Hol-
loway, of England, the original proprietor
OF Holloway's medicines, states that Hay
lock is not his agent and has no authority
to use his name. Our ninety days. draft is
not yet due, and we annot say from per-
sonal knowledge, but from the above it
would seem that a considerable amount of
advertising is being done for nothing.
Brothers CT the craft, how about it?
WE A learned, through Mr.. Frank
Gaugler, that the Indians are killing cattle
on the Muscleshell. Some ten or twelve
head belonging to Cooper & Cooper, have
been killed. These are the Crow Indians,
and are on friendly terms with the whites.
Not long since, we published a statement
from the Bozeman Times to the effect that
the Crows around the agency were in a
starving condition, and that parties of them
were starting on a hunt to the, Muscleshell.
Being afraid to venture into the buffalo
country lest the Sioux should 'pounce upon
them, and being destitute, it is quite natural
that they should subsist upon the settlers
cattle rather than see their squaws and pap
pooses die of hunger, and feel the craving
of the same deamon upon their own vitals.
This inhuman policy Of the Government
towards these unfortunate children of the
plains is becoming almost unbearable, and
it is a stigma upon the character of the
American people. The appropriations are
ample, but the same power that awards
should see that there is an honest distribu-
ton, and that plumbers and pillagers be
brought to justice. When it becomes nee
essary for the Indians, in order to sustain
life, to kill the, stock. of our farmers, VIZ
think it is time that the people see that a
proper. investigation is had. The Indians,
under the circumstances, are not to blame,
but the Government is in fault for placing
in charge of. their annuities men who will
rob them of their means of existence.
We would call attention to the advertise
ment of VIM. M. Price & Co.. This firm,
fully satisfied with the results of their adver.
Using with us the past year, have renewed
their contractfo for the ensuing twelve months,
They have removed their price-list in order
to present a cut of their. wagon and buggy,
Their prices are very materially reduced
from last year, and may be had on applica
ton. The number of wagons and buggles
received in this Territory last season from
this firm were few, but all gave entire salts
faction. They were very complete in work
manship and finish, and much cheaper thar
could have been had from any other source
This house does a large business in all thu
western States they also ship many car
loads of wagons, buggies, machinery, etc.
to Oregon.
This agency was established by the Mis-
souri, State grange, and. are under heavy
bonds. They are also the special agents fol-
several other State oranges. Their facili
ties for purchasing farm supplies, agricultu
raj implements. ETC., are the very best tina
can be had. They also have advantages TO
obtaining the highest prices for wool, fur
and hides. Consignmeats may be made tx
them or business entrusted to their charge
with perfect security. Our business trans
actions have always proved perfectly salts
factory besides, we are personally acqualnt
ed with the members of the firm, and hav'
no hesitancy in giving them our fuil en-
dorsement. Every farmer who wishes Il
purchase a wagon, spring wagon or buggy
will do well to. send ae once for their reduced
price list.
