P. Clark, Of the I'd cavalry, who went for
ward with G company Of his regiment,
under Lieut.. Hoppin and | company Of the
9Th infantry, mounted, under Lieut.. Borden,
together with some eighty Indian scouts,
mostly Cheyennes and Crows, struck a large
hunting party of Sitting Bulls young men,
on Beaver Creek, about twelve miles from
C~ampbelps house, and a running fight, in
which the hostiles did the leg business for
some time, was the result; falling back,
they rallied on their reserves with their
usual ability, and soon swung around
Clark's command in a manner that
made it very lively for that
officer. He sent a courier to Gen. Miles,
who was on the march, and the whole force
started to the front at a gallop. The demon
allied Assinaboines were making tracks for
the rear, slashing their ponies and crying
"help ! Sioux |" in accents Of terror. The
daring Cheyennes, stark naked, on their
war horses, who were left to guard their
pony herd, rushed forward like fury, yelling
in their peculiarly terrific manner.
The painted Bannocks, who had little
stomach for a row, sat still IN their ponies
and seemed glad enough to be out of the
fight.
Scout after scout came back to say that the
hostiles had Clark surrounded, and that he
was nearly outs ammunition. Gen. Miles
sent forward pack-mules with a fresh supply,
riding with the escort in person.
Soon the white puffs Of smoke from the
two skirmish lines were visible; but the
Sioux nearest to Miles retreated when they
saw the advance.
Clark then charged them in front and
drove them across Little Rocky creek, theil
pace much accelerated by the fire of Col
Rice's Hotchkiss howitzers, which, by
great exertion, were brought In time to givt
the rascals a parting salvo. After the sec.
ond discharge the hostiles left in grea
haste, and Rice piled shells into them at
distance of twenty. five hundred yards.
The hostile party numbered between
three and four hundred warriors, who hat
mostly wickyups instead of regular tepees
They had only a few squaws with them

Friday Evening, Juk 25, 1879.

General Miles has been instructed from
Washington, in the most positive terms, to
proceed cautiously and if possible avoid
conflict with the Indians. Had he been
restricted to this policy in the outset. there
would have been no Indian war. There
really existed NO necessity for him -to,rub.
up against the renegade Sioux of the do.
minion with a handful of troops and inyite
homilities not rendered by the Indians.
General Sheridan has been given authority
to either withdraw Miles forces Of rein
force him with additional troops.

sIoUX CITY & pEMB1NA.
Sioux City Journal, Oath: Superinten-
dent Merchant yesterday said that there
was no question but that the Pembina road
would be extended to Sioux Falls at once.
All the company ask is free right of way
and depot ground through to Sioux Falls
and that this had been promised. In re.
gard to the Niobrara extension, there would
probably not be business enough for two
roads, and if the Milwaukee company had
commenced work west of the jim river as
reported, the Dakota Southern would not
build to Niobrara now. Work on the ex-
tension up the Jim river would 60 on at
the same time with that On the Pembina
extension.

Sioux Falls Paragraph, 23d: j. A.
Robinson. chief engineer of the Southern
Minnesota railroad, arrived here Monday
evening from the survey. which was pro-
crossing this side of Dell Rapids, and will
probably reach Sioux Falls tomorrow.
Mr.. Robinson says he has specific instruc-
lions from headquarters to let it be known
that it is the purpose of the company to at
leas, grade and probably complete its line
to Sioux Falls this year. The managers
are very anxious to get as far as possible
this fall with their line, on its way to q
Junction with the Milwaukee road, n ii
is absolutely determined to take in Sioux
Falls on the way, provided the promised
right of way and depot grounds be donated
which will undoubtedly be done. The
company asks that Sioux Falls furnish the
right of way for ten miles above town, and
our leading citizens have guaranteed that
deeds for this will be forthcoming.
The contract for the grading of the line
into Flandreau was let the first of this
week: and dirt is now flying along every
mile clear up to the town. Track is laid
for twenty-five miles west of Jackson, anG
is going down at the rate of a mile to q
mile and half a day, so that it will reach
the state line, sixty five miles further. pro-
badly in sixty days, and the cars will be
running into Flandreau, seven miles from
the state line, very surely by November /.
If severe weather Toes not interfere. track
laying will be continued on down the val.
ley, and Sioux Falls re reached this year
but at all events 1t may be accepted as q
fact, from indications and intentions, that
next spring at farthest will see the South.

THE VETO MESSAGE,

We were fully prepared for the
action of the President on the
Army Appropriation bill with its
political riders. The Democrats
have misinterpreted his former acts.
Contrary to the views of large
portion of the rank and file of his
party, he adopted in the early days
of administration, a conciliatory
policy towards the South. So far
as direct good results are concerned
that policy has been a failure,
though well meant. Democratic
leaders have INDUCED in the belief
that his determination to conclllate
them would prevent him from op-
posing their revolutionary schemes.
But they have reckoned without
their host. He has promptly and
emphatically put his foot down on
the first of these partisan measures
presented for his approval. He
cives his reasons clearly and unam-
biguouly. There is an emphasis IN
what he says that will probably sur
prise some of the Brigadiers and
their dough-face allies. The mes
sage appears in our telegraphic col,
umns, and vii be read with more
than ordinary interest.
What next? Will the Demo
cratic leaders in Congress take upor
themselves now the responsibility c
doing what some of their more can
did spokesmen have said they woul'
do-starve the Government int
submission to their arbitrary will
If so. let them do it. Already the.
have destroyed any chances tina
party may have had for success i
1880, and it is difficult for them t
get themselves in more unenviabl
attitude. 4 little brief authorit
has been their ruin, and Will
they may, let them exercise it, Th
country will approve the act of tn
President. He has done just VIII;
his friends expected of him. III
party which elected him to the hig
Office he fills will heartily endor'
this official act. We have nev'
doubted that he had the frmness
show his authority when the prop
time came. We congratulate tt
President, and we congratulate u
country upon having such a Chi
Magistrate in this hour of need.

SOUTHERN CLAIMS.

The recent attempt, led by the
Northern dough-facc, General
Bragg, of Wisconsin, to repudiate
the rights of Southern citizens to
compensation for property taken
and used by the army of the United
States during the rebellion, has
come to an early end of failure.
The first objection by these repu-
diators is the alleged magnitude of
the war claims, which, by ignorance,
falsehood, and an unbridled mag
ination, has been represented as
amounting to hundreds or thousands
of millions of dollars. This would
not be good objection, if it were
true, provided the claims were hon
est, any more than it would be a
good reason to repudiate the public
debt, or the pension list, because of
their magnitude. Indeed the counts
less treasure of life and property
poured out to sustain the govern
ment added to the sacredness of the
debt. because its amount was sc
great. And this has been the yer
dict of the American people. Blu
the cry is not true. Men who have
given the matter attention aver tina
it will not take ten millions to pay
these claims, SO far as they honestly
come within the law.
The second objection, that the''
claims are for damages and destruc
ton of property during the war, lik'
the first, grows out Ofsheer Ignorance
No law has been, or is likely eve

q he passed making compensation
or property damaged or destroyed.
Jot a dollar has ever been, or can
,e, paid on that account. ProVis-
on has been made to pay loyal cate
,ens for property taken or used by
he United States army to supply
It's necessities during the war. That
is all.
The third objection, that they are
g Rebel Claims" is equally ground
less. The first law was passed July
4, 1864, under the leadership OF
Thad. Stevens, and the second
March 3, 1871, under the leader
ship of Gen. Butler. In both cases
Congress was overwhelmingly Re-
publican. In the first case the war
was at its heighth. The Repubi-
cans alone have offered both these
measures of justice to the South
when they had in Congress an over
whelming majority. The Republ-
cans alone have solidly stood by
them, though now in minority, IN
the recent assault on them by rebel
brigadiers led by Northern dough-
faces.
Compensation for private prop
erty taken for public use is express
Iy guaranteed by the Constitution
of the United States, nor can these
claimes be repudiated without a
direct violation of our organic law
The election of so many "Briga-
diers" from the South has been a
great mistake. They have spent
their time in quarreling and fight
ing over again the battles of the
"lost cause" instead of seeking to
build up the waste places OF the
South made by the war; and they
have managed not only to DO moth
ing for the South, but have been
found on the wrong side of every
Question looking to real Southern
interests. Whenever foolish OF
ignorant man from the North has
got up in Congress and said word
about Southern claims, how has
he been met by Southern Demo
Gratis? By making a bold stand
for the plain, legal, constitutions
right of our citizens Not at all
The Southern Democrat has
promptly lodged into the one little
, bomb-proof his instincts and educa
ton have led him to, and proposed
to repeal the laws and repudiate the
l claims.
Fl Suppose, for instance, Southern
: Democrat had proposed in Congress
d to repeal the law providing for tn
q pa7ment of interest on the bonde
? debt of the United States
y How would the Northern Repre-
I sentatives have met him? Woul

q who threw the brick would haV

Sc is exactly the same as that of tt
er bonded debt-just as strong
te equally plain; but not a sing
er bourbon or "brigadier" has dol

Ayers Ague Cure,

For Fever and Ague, Intermittent Fever,
Chill Fever, Remittent Fever, Dumb Ague3
al the sffections which arise from malari-
GUS, marsh, or miasmatlc polsons' q
This is a compound remedy, prepared with
scientifc skill from vegetable ingredients, winch
rarely fails to cure the seyerest cases OF Chlils
and Fever and the Concomitant disorders. Such
n remedy the necessities of the people IN mala-
rious districts demand, Its great superiority
over any other medicine etdiscoyered Tor the
cure of Intermttents is, that it contains no qul-
nine or mineral, and those who take it are free
from danger of quinism or any injurious effects,
and are as healthy after using it as before. IL
has been extensively employed during the last
thirty years in the treatment OF these distressing
disorders and so unvarying has been its success
that % il has gained the reputation OF being lnlalf
lble Z IT can therefore, be safely recommended
as q sure remedy and specific for the Fever and
Ague of the West, and the Chil1s and Fever OF
the South. 1t counteracts the miasmatic poison
in the blood, and frees the system from It's lnnu-
ence, so that fever and ague, shakes or chills,
once broken up by it, do not return until - the
disease is again contracted.
The great variety of disorders which arise from
the irritation of this poison, such as Neuralgia,
rheumatism, GOut, Headache, Blindness
Tocthache, EaracIles C9tarrh, Asthma, PaI-
pitation, SpIenic a Elections, Mysteries, RallE
in the Bowels, Collie, Paralysis, ana derange-
tent or ueriodicaI have no speedier remedy than
AYERS AGUE CURE, which cures them all alike,
and protects the system from future ATTACKS. As
a preventive, it is of immense service IN those
communities where Fever and Ague prevails, as
it stays the development of the disease If taken
on the first approach Of the premonitOry symp'
toms, - Travellers and temporary residents are
thus enabled to defy these disorders, and few
will ever suffer If they avail themselves OF the
protection this remedy affords.
For Liver Complaints, arising from torpldlty,
il is an excellent remedy; it stimulates this organ
into healthy activity, and produces many remark
able cures where other medicines fail.
