JOHNNY Pope Gives His Views of the Ciey-
enna Rehellinn

johnny Pope Gives His Views of the Chey-
enne Rebellion.
CHICAGO, Oct. 19.-At late hour tonight
military headquarters received several inter
estlng documents bearing on the Cheyenne In
dian trouble. The first is from Gen. Pope who
reports that the force OF cavalry is too small to
attend to these seceders, and that all the milf
tary are poorly armed with carbines as against
Indian rifles; the cavalry are kept busy at Forts
Sill and Reno. He urges that more force
is essential to securing peace on the border. AT
the Cheyenne Indian agency he learns there ia
an enormous deficiency in Indian supplies, as
shown by the report of John ID. Miles, agent at
the Cheyenne and Araphace agency. The latter
says the primary cause of the Cheyennes leay-
ing their reservation is that the daily ration
promised them of one aud-a-haIf pounds of
beet one-half pound of -four or corn, and
four pounds of coffee, eight pounds sugar and
three pounds beans to each hundred have op;y
been partially carried out, the supplies received
being insufficient. None of the stock and
aid In building houses, which was promised
has been afforded them. Another cause Of the
detection was that they objected to the manner
OF serving their rations. The northern Chew
ennes tlrst withdrew, and all efforts to induce
them TO return peaceabiy have been unavailing.
Gen. Pope suggests that the Indian commits
sioner may, in the light of these facts, find it
necessary to modify his view of affairs at the
agency.
Ben Clark, an old scout reports that he has
information that fifteen Chcyennes have been
Killed IN Encounters with the troops, and that
the seceders intend to work north and propose
a peaceful settlement in Fort Kehoe, but if
this Is not permitted, will join Sitting Bull.

YT4L TO ST. P4UE.

1t there is a business man in st. Paul whe
is not aroused by the plunderipg outrages OF
the Minneapolis wheat ring, it is time he
bestirred himself. Tt is paralyzing trade and
striking blow at the prosperity of this
city such al it never received before.7 Ask
the wholesale merchant how his trade has
been this north and you have the
uniform answer that it has fallen
Off in an alarming manner. There
can be no other rssult, and the situation
must grow worse instead of better, SO long
as the ring of plunderers is allowed to re-
main unbroken.
The letter which Mr., Hodges read Satur-
day night from MIR. sutclife is suggestive
Mr. Sutcliffe shipped his wheat to st. Paul
instead OF selling it to the ring as No. at
Hancock. In st. Paul he obtained No. 2
grade, and after paying all expenses had a
net profit of thirteen cents per bushel over
the ring figures at Hancock.
This single statement is sufficient to form
the germ of an immense business for st.
Paul. Our business men should stretch out
their hands and lift the yoke from the neck
of the plundered people and make st. Paul
she great grain center of this region. The
first step in this direction is to defeat Bill
Washburn, one of the leaders, who profits
by the plunder of the ring. st. Paul should
show to the people of the State that she has
no sympathy with and is not party to these
steals. She can do this by repudiating
Washburn and electing Hodges to the Legis-
lature. Such vote will be formal an
nouncement that the farmers can rely on
fair play at st. Paul.

CATHOLICISM 1s AMERICA.

Lecture on Rec. Father Byrne, Head of
the Dominican Order IN the United
States, at the Church Of the Holy Rosary
Rev. Father Byrne, superior of the Do
minican Brotherhood in the United States,
has been visiting Minneapolis and vicinity
during the past two or three weeks. Last
night he delivered lecture at the Church of
the Holy Rosary, in the southern part of the
city, on the History and Work of the Church
in America. The subject is one of the most
deep and abiding interest, and was handled
IN ms. able manner by the reverend
father.
He commenced by speaking Of the discov-
cry of America by Christopher Columbus.
which he said was essentially the work of the
Catholic church, working through the intel
lect and courage of one of the most devoted
and pious sons of the church. When the
great discoverer was driven from the courts
of princes, aud from the presence of the
worldly great and powerful big with his
thought of worlds beyond the seas, he
sought the society of the religious teachers,
aud found his best and truest
friends and abettors among the Franciscan
and Dominican priests. America WAS settled
by men of strong religious sentiment, and
Whatever form taken by their various be-
llefs, each was firmly welded to his convic-
tions. In the colonies which, after the reyo-
luton, became the United States of America,
both the extreme northern and the extreme
southern, among them the Catholic form of
worship Was prescribed. Only in Pennsyl-
vanla and Maryland were members of the
church protected in liberty of con-
Nv fH1
root the strong religious sentiment
which has since ripened and deyeloped in
the great and powerful church of America
The speaker then alluded to the laws for the
protection Of free religious worship passed
by the early Catholic settlers in MARYLAND,
and attributed the final birth of American
religious liberty to the good seed sown by
the early fathers in the church, which finally
grew to maturity and resulted in the reyol u
ton which made the United States free
and independent nation.
The speaker then spoke of the wonderful
growth of the Catholic church in the United
States since the formation Of this govern
ment. Among other statements he asserted
that when the first bishop for America was
consecrated Gin 1880 the Catholics numbered
only about one III every seventy of the popu-
latlon; while to-day, before the centennial
anniversary of that conservation, the COM
munican.s of the Catholic church numbered
one in every six Of the population. The
fact, he said, was little less than miraculous.
The reverend speaker dwelt earnestly and
feelingly upon the work af the church and
her sons and daughters in this new land in
working out the destinies of the race; and
closed with an eloquent appeal to his audi
ence to prove faithful as did the early he
roes and martyrs of the church in America
to the cause of the church, her holy religion
and human liberty.
A large audience was present, the church
being filled with crowd of interested au-
dltors, representing all shades of belief.

a LAME DEFENSE or THE SWIM
DING BRISS EHyTLES

a LAME DEFENSE or THE EWIN-
DING BRASS KETTLES.
Bill King announces editorially and also
locally, with great flourish, that the gran
gers committee OF his county have exam
med the brass testers and found them cor
rect. The local report shows that Bill King
speaks without authority, as it only claims
that they aoSSI SO report.
The pious Bill King probably knows
enough to understand that the professional
gambler might show his pack of marked
cards and secure an opinion that
they were correct. And so they
would be on their face, but
everything would depend upon the way they
were handled. The brass kettle is the
marked card against the farmer. Tt can be
used honestly or dishonesty, at the will of
the manipulation. The uniform plan is to
use it dishonesty, and certificate that it is
correct Gf such certificate is ever giyen)
amounts to no more than certificate that
it is made of brass.
1t is eminently proper for Bill Wash
burns friends to come to the rescue of the
brass kettle. The people will bury them
both in one grave.
