SAYS the Austin (Nevada) ReUitie Of a
late dats:-"It is within our knowledge
that the powers that assume to control the
Repu blican party in this State have a
plst on foot to shut out John p. Jones
for reelection to the United States Senate.
As that plot develops and the campaign
advances, we will "give away" all we
know about it. 1t is important for II is
State that the Silver champion shall be
re-electsd TO the Senate, and it will be a
crying shame if he is defeated simply
that the ambitions Of few selfish sch m
ers may be gratihed.'

Treaty of San Stefano was practically
subjected to European discussion.
With the treaty in hand England blurt-
ed out boldly and loudly her objections
to it, and with the treaty in hand also
other Powers conned the summary of
those objections. Berlin seemed to
smile approvingly OH certain points Of
the objections; but, with solemn shak-

peace. Austria, on the contrary, was

TONGUE RIVER TALK.
The Completion of Fort Custer,
Valley OF the Yellowstone Navigation etc.

A correspondent, writing from Sher-
man, Montana, says:
FIT. Custer, our nearest military post,
has been pushed to near completion,
under the command of Lieut.. Col. Geo.
p. Buell., 18th Infantry. Colonel Blu
| ell has labored under many disadyan-
tages, but has succeeded far beyond
what was expected, and to-day Fort
Custer presents a handsome and finish
ed appearance. Three million feet Of
the lumber used in the building was
sawed on the ground by two small saw
mills, the logs being floated down the
Big and Little Horn rivers. The post
is garrisoned by four companies Of the
Second Cavalry, Of which regiment it
is the headquarters, commanded by
Lieut.. Col. Bracket, and four cOmpa-
MES of the 18th Infantry.
Fort Keogh if located about two
miles above the mouth of Tongue river,
and is the headquarters of the military
district of the Yellowstone.
The valley of the Yellowstone is the
last best heritage our people have, to
make homes for themselves. Not but
there may be as productive land else
where, but it combines more advanta-
ges. is more like home to those coming
from east of the Missouri, and while
the season Of navigation on the river
may be short, 1t will be of incalculable
advantage in shipping the productions
of the country, and bringing necessary
supplies from abroad. The one crop
planted here last season demonstrated
t~hatltheEsoil will produce in abundance
the small grains, potatoes, cucumbers,
melons, and in fact all manner and
kinds of vegetables. Although, for
want of time, 1t cannot be proclaimed
for a certainty that apples, peaches etc.
will be adapted to the soil and climate,
all conditions are favorable. 1t is the
paradise of the stock man.
The head of navigation OF the Vel
lowstone river is a disputed point, some
claiming Bakers Battle Ground, about
65 miles above the mouth of the Big
Horn, to be the place, while others stop
at the foot of Clark'B Fork Bottom, ten
niles further up, and cry Eureka"
This much is known; steamers like the
Western, Fanchon etc. came as high as
Sherman, and it is further known that
the Josephine overcame all difficulties
and went about one hundred miles
above. Reason and experience teaches
that above the confluence of two large
streams there is less water, and their
navigation attended with more difficult
ty than below, unless the river bed is
more confined this is not the case
with either the Big Horn or the Yellow
stone.

A special dispatch from Kenosha,
Wisconsin, to the Chicago Times, states
that the vestry of st. Matthew's church
of that place have extended an invita-
ton to Rev. F. W. Tomkins, Jr., of
this city, to take charge of their
church. The dispatch closes with IL
statement that st. Matthew's church
has been without a rector for some
time, and the members thereof are
'jubilant owe the prospect of securing
a pastor; as it is thought the gentleman
will accept"
THE LEADER is under the impress
sion that Mr.. Tomkins has no idea of
giving up his charge here, and, so far
as we are enabled to learn, the men,
bers of his congregation would be very
10th to part with him.

a in the matter, and now he can

congress and the people of the United
States. His skirts are clean, and being
so, a grateful and admiring public will
consent to his retirement with all his
glory upon him.
