Got. lO.-To Gov. Pitkin: The following reli-
able news has como from the Los Pinos
agency: Sapevaneiro. one of the most reliable
sub:chiets who was sent by Ouray to the
White River agency after the news of the fight
had been received by Ouray, returned from
Milk river yesterday at IL o'clock. he reports
he saw the white women and children At
White River agency. in charge of Chief
Douglass and one of the employees who was
present when the Indians made the attack
upon the agency. This man killed one Indian
and wounded another. Sapavaneiro thinks
three or four more employees are also alive, as
their tracks were seen around the agency
buildings. and they may have fed to the
woods. Father Meeker was killed. The report
as given in the papers that Sapavaneiro and
Shovano took part in the fight is untrue, and
it is also not sure that Chief Douglass led the
White River Utes. Ouray thinks that Jack, q
White river Ute, commanded the Indians in
the charge on Thornburgh's command.

The forthcoming annual report of the
commissioner Of the general land Office will
contain an interesting comparative statement
of the disposals Of public lands to actual set
tiers during each of the last i've fiscal years.
The totals range about 100000 to 100000
acres each for the fiscal years of 1875, 1875 and
1877, to5, 166,9A acres for the year ending
June 50, 1878, and 865o,119 acres during the
twelve months ending with last June. The
otals of entries under the homestead and
timbetAculture law scontrast as follows: For
the fiscal year Of 1917, 26ee,77t acres; for 1878
6r2ss,77s acres; for 1879, 8.os665s acres. The
cash sales show decrease of 255,O0o acres
since last year, when they aggregated about
$4,000 acres, but the net increase in the
amount of land taken BY actual settlers the 1
last fiscal year is found to have been nearly

- Two adventurous miners recently took a
ride through the black Horn Canon, in the
Yellowstone Region, never before traverscd
by man. Had they been able graphically to
describe their adventure, they would have
told n tale seldom cqualed in thrilling Incl
dents. Wishing TO save 900 miles travel
around the mountains, they concluded to try
the canon. With some tools they had in
their mining camp they built n frail craft at
the bottom of the canon, having previously
taken down their material of red cedar. The
boat was made twelve feet long, three feet
wide, and, upon trial, was found to carry its
cargo of freight and passengers admirably.
So ON the morning of the Odd of July they
united it and pushed into tho current. The
rush of the river, which before starting
was almost deafcning, was terrible IA the
boat started on its journey through this I'M
known gorge. To go back was impossible;
to climb the solid limestone walls which rose
500 feet above their heads, where a narrow
streak of light lighted up their course, was
not to he entertained as n means of escape;
through they must go, trusting to their
ability to avoid rocks and to the strength OF
| their craft to run the rapids which they met
at every bend of the canon. The loudest
halloo was heard as whisper. Grottos,
caves, unknown recesses of nature We're
passed by these hardy navigators. In places
ilocks of mountain sheep, startled by the
appearance of the curiosity rushing by be-
low them, would run along ledge of rocks,
jump from crag to crag, whore footing fol
man would be impossible, and disappear
Evening coming on, they attempted to tic ur
for the night. They worked the boat close ia
shore, jumped out, and away went the craft
carrying the guns and provisions. With
"A Ill.
hold before them, their chances of keeping
OH We're doubtful, when they luckily found
two logs, which they dashed together with
their BELTS and again trusting to the river
and still more dangerous rocks, they set out
to searcl, for their boat, which they found two
miles below, whore it had stopped in al
eddy. On the afternoon Of the third day
while wondering how much longer the Big
Canon could possibly be, they suddenly shot
out into the beautiful Big Horn Valley, with
Fort C. f. Smith on their right.

Danger of state RrIghss Heresy.

Our history shows that it is not the
national but the State power in our sys-
TEN which has been always the source of
danger and the enemy of liberty. Down
to the beginning of the rebellion the doc
trfne of State sovereignty was asserted,
not for the security of liberty, but of the
most inhuman slavery. The plea that
every State should be practically indie
pendent was urged, not to protect Justice
and to secure equality, but that women
and children might be sold at auction un-
challenged. 1t wasa doctrine incompa-
tible with patriotism and true national
union, and it was proclaimed to protect
and perpetuate injustice. 1t isolated
States and barbarized them. The attempt
to desolate the Territories of the United
States with chattle slavery, and to make
United States officers slave-catchers, pro-
ceeded from the party of State rights and
State sovereignty. Mr.. Douglass "a DEM
ocrat opposed this attempt by the gro
tesque application of the doctrine of State
rights that squatters in Territory might
decide whether man-Selling should be
permitted, saying that for his part he
''didn't care whether slavery was voted
up or down." Baff1ed in the effort to
natiUnalize slavery under the plea of State
rights in the Territory, the State party
pleaded the right to dissolve the Union by
secession, still for the purpose of prepat-
uating human slavery. The state party
waged for four years tremendous war to
dissolve the Union. FOrtunatelySthe ma
tionaI instinct had become so strong in a
century that the Union was maintained.
Slavery was abolished as the condition
of the restoration of the rebel States to
their relations within the Union. And
those States having gained in representa-
ton by emancipation, the old cry of State
rights and State sovereignty is again
raised, not to secure liberty and to main
tain Justice, but to protect injustice by
facilitating the suppression or perversiOn
ofthe colored vote; not to defend liberty,
but to make oppression easier.-Harper's s
Weekly.
