According to the Chicago Times,
Gen. Butler has been six times be-
fore the people of Massachusetts
either for nomination or the election
for governor-twice as a regular
Democrat, twice as a Republican, and
twice as an independent candidate
on his personal claims. He now
promises to reward his supporters
if he shall be successful, and pro-
misses to "die game" if die he must.
If defeated this year, he promises
to put his claim next year.

A very large and influential
meeting of manufacturers of boots
and shoes was held in the Montreal
Exchange on Thursday, the object
being to decide on a united course
of action in view of the very SER
ious advance on all kinds of leather.
During the past two months leather
of all kinds has advanced from 20
to % per cent, and raw hides,
which sold at 8 cents, now meet
with a ready sale at 10 to IL cents.
1t was, therefore, unanimously de-
cided to advance the price of boots
and shoes in proportion to the in
creased cost of raw material.

Once in travelling, the Rev. DR..
Bledso was exceedingly annoyed
by pedantic bore who forced him
self upon him, and made a great

The Doctor bore it as long as he

him gravely said: "My friend,
you and l know all that there is to

the man, pleased with what he
thought a very complimentary as

1t is difficult to believe that Col.
Robert Iugersoll is an infidel in his
heart of hearts. In a recent lee
ture he said: II would wish the
friends who bid us good night in
this world might meet us with
good morning there. Just so
long as we love one another we'll
hope for another world just as
long as those we love kisses the lips
of death we'll believe and hope for
another world"

The German government has
placed a duty of 25 per cent upon
all imports of provisions into that
country, which so far has not been
realized by the American market,
on account of the enormous stocks
taken into the interior Of Germany
previous to the duty coming into
effect. This will probably reduce
the consumption one-third in a
country which has hitherto taken
upwards of half a million boxes of
bacon annually.

A Scotchman ought to know
what whisky is good for; and here
is what DIR. Guthrie once said,
"Whisky is good in its own place.
There is nothing like whisky in
this world for preserving a man
when he is dead. But it is one OF
the worst things in the world for
preserving u man when he is living
If you want to keep dead man,
put him in whisky; If you want to
kill a living man, put whisky into
him."

Definite proposition from Sitting bull

FoRT LINCOLN, Jan. e. Runners
from Sitting Bull have arrived at
Standing Rock agency bearing dis
tinct proposition from the chief to re
turn aud surrender his guns and ponies
He says that his people are hungry and
cold and his spirit is broken.
Perhaps they would like to share the
fate Of the Cheyennes who escaped
from their prison to avoid starvation
and freezing to death. His PROPOSE
tion not believed to be sincere as ap
pears from the following:
WASHINGTON, Jan. 28.--The score
tary Of the interior has reports confirm.
ing the crossing Of Sitting Bull and 0
number Of his people, and the subjec,
engages the attention If the state de.
partment as well as Of the interior and
war departments. Information is
meager, but the opinion in official cir.
cles here is that this Indian advance
suggests trouble in the Spring, and
means are already being taken to pre-.
vent it. A plan has been agreed upon
for settling the relations Of the govern
ment with these Indians, but its details
are not yet made known.

Mistaken Identity.

Some weeks ago s. w. Hall Esq, q
prominent lawyer Of nine years residence
IN Olympia and formerly partner Of
judge Dennison, was arrested at Olym.
pia, and was claimed as one Holiday,
who, several years ago had embezzled a
large amount of funds at Carlinville
ILL.,, and had escaped. Hall protested
his being the man but all to no purpose.
He was incarcerated in Jail for time at
Olympia, and on the sailing of the
steamer was taken en- route for Illinois.
The following dispatch to the Oregon
ian explains the result of his examina.
ton:
CARLINvILLE, Ill.,, Jan. 30.--S. W.
Hall, Of Olympia, w. T., who was
brought to this city as George Fl. Hol.
liday, applied for writ of habeas cor
pus yesterday. Judge Charles L. Lane
presided at the trial. The Hon. John
Mayo Palmer for Hall, and the Hon. s.
/. Coon for the state. A large number
OF witnesses were examined, and were
nearly unanimous that s. W. Hall was
not George H. Holiday. The judge
discharged Hall from custody, and thus
ends remarkable case. The court
room was crowded with parties from
every portion Of the country. All unite
10 saying that Hall is not Holiday,
and Halls vindication is complete.
How unfortunate it is for person to
appear like some one else.

The house adjourned yesterday at
two o'clock to meet at 10 o'clock this
morning. This move came from the
Republican side Of the house, and was
done, we presume, to give that individ
ual from Nebraska chance to try the
virtue Of Union Pacific money as an
organizing element in the house. Ida.
hoan, Jan. 20.
So it is true that Jay Gould has an
agent lobbying our legislature.
The house met this morning, and
after balloting three or four times they
took recess until I o'clock this even
ing. There was no change, except that
the Republicans voted for Baldwin, 10,
stead Of Robb. Sixty-nine ballots have
been cast in ala Idahoan, ian. 20.
We learn that at their evening ses-
sion seven more ballotings were had
without an election, making in all 76
ballotings. "That is the way the peo-
pies money goes. Pop goes the

Moses called ten of the head men of

and told them Gen. Howard wanted
him to give up the murderers, and that
he told him he would. but not to be
uneasy or alarmed, as he did not intend
to do it, nor wouldn't, and then, to ce.

all, Moses leading men and the ten
Umatillas, according to Indian custom,
made friendly horse trades. The Una
tillas then knew Moses would not give
them up. Moses then told them they
must 60 short distance away from his
people, as he must tell the whites he
did not know where they were, but not
to be alarmed, as he would Let them
know it the whites came after them,
and would protect them. Then went
