SIOUX CITY Journal, 10. When Gov.
Kiddcr was in St. Paul few days ago the
Pioneer Press says, he made arrangement
with the st. Paul and Pacific, the Northern
Pacific and the Sioux City roads to carry
delegates to and from Yankton convention
at half rates.
DALRYMrLE's farms on the Northern
Pacific road, in Dakota consists of 1900
acres Of wheat. In harvesting, eighty
self.binders were used and three hundred
men employed. Thirty tons Of wire were
used in binding. One field was four miles
long and two miles wide. Fifteen steam
threshers are to be used in thrcshing the
grain.
YANKToN Pres: 1t is with extreme
qualification that we are enabled to an
nounce the resi- gnation OF Gen. Hammond,
Indian inspector. His resignation was
forwarded t" Washington on the 9th inst.
and will take effect on the ist Of Septem.
Der. Hammond has not sufficient back
bone to face the men he has injured and
the easiest way out is to resign before the
lneyitable investigation comes on.

Barnes. Our informant says that Kidder's
friends are laboring hard to secure his rec.
ognition by the delegation, but their ef-
forts will probably prove unavailing.
