ARGUS LIBELS.
What that Paper and the Sun arc Do
ing for Bismarck.


Under the head OF the way Bismarck is
advertised, the Fargo Argus quotes par
agraph, probably prepared by its own ed
itor, under the head of Bismarck cores
pondencc to the Minneapolis Tribune, Of
May 25th, which says: Like all front
ier towns Bismarck has a surplus of low
dives and dancing saloons which openly
flourish their banner. There is Il genera.
complaint that business is dull, and, as
usual, disposition to charge the blame
on the management OF the road" There
is not "uancing saloon IN Bismarck OE'
one at any time used for such purposes.
There isn't Il saloon in the city entitled to
the designation given 1t by this cores
pondent The high license required and
the close regulations adopted have driven.
Out fully 1hree-iourths OF the saloons and.
all that could bc styled dives. Edwards
probably learned that his friend En-
mons, of the Sun, had been chosen for the
Minneapolis Tribune work at Bismarck
and simply got liz IL shot ahead of En-
mons.
AS to dull business, the truth is trade al
Bismarck was never so good as this spring.
The postoffice, the banks, the merchants,
The hotels and THE TRIBUNE all report in.
creasing business. There has been no
time slncc 1878 when So many new build
ings were in course of construction anil
the town seen from the high lands 'ac-
of the city is literally spotted with new
roofs. Tie Minneapolis I'ridune is ono
of the brightest, liveliest and ncwsiest
papers published and ought to divide the.
morning field with the ST. Paul daily but
it can't IN this region if it permits itscIL
to lie imposed upon IN this manner.

Gen. Hazen:s Concession.


The rain fall in the Yellowstone coun-
try for 1879, as reported by the Signal
Service observers, was 10 inches, as much
us tho average Of states like Minnesota
and Wisconsin that are settled and well
provided with forests.
Gen. HaZcn in his report on the Yellow
stone country few years ago, remarked
that but one-one- -hundredth only OF the
land west of the Tooth meridian was fit
for cultivation, on account of scarcity Of
rain. During the past three weeks the
General has conceded another one hun
dredtl to his estimate of tillablc soil. 1t
was probably the storm of Sunday, the
10th, that induced this further concession.
The rain was so copious that the Post
garden was transformed into duck pond,
requiring the services ola detail of soldiers
after "taps" to lun sluices and drain the
water off. The Sixth Infantry are under
orders for Colorado, and the General will
miss the garden stuff at his summer mess :;
but VIC venture to say he is ready to con-
ccde that the rain fall is sufficient, and
the exceptional hundredths of tillable soil
will be placed ON the other side Of the
column and become the proportion of land
that is sterile.
Five acres of land, five miles west of
Keogh, produced in 1879, eighteen hun
dred dollars worth of garden stuff Well
posted residents of that section say this
land is no better than the surrounding
country, which needs development only
TO yield crops that will aslound, IN abund-
ancy and quality, the farmers of the east.

THE DIAMOND FIELD.
Fort Lincoln Athletics Again Waxed
Inv the AcfivnS.

The Actives and Athletics met on the
lower parade ground Sunday afternoon
and played as agreed although a very
high wind prevailed all day and night
At the outset Of the game both clubs re-
tired without a run. This nerved the
spectators up to close attention. At the
opening Of the ninth inning every one
waited with abated breath for the climax
Mr.. Dugan, our French and Latin tutor:
saved the day by overbalancing the score
in favor of the Actlves. The following is
the score:
Innings 123 81 69
The Actives could not do themselves
Justice on account Of Mr.. Rafter's compul
sion to retire from behind the bat, having
had y pair of little tives pretty badly used
up. Their pitcher also being absent from
the post the two pillars OF the nine event
by the board" 50 to speak. The game
was interesting and all worked to the best
advantage possible. Should the weather
permit and both clubs remain another
contest may be expected Sunday next.

.WOLF POINT.
A Few Interesting Items From As
sinabOine Agency.

sinabOine Agency.
WOLF POINT, May ia large number
OF the young men of this tribe went out
day before yesterday to run buffalo and
returned to-day with a large quantity Of
meat. The entire camp will go out hunt
ing as soon as they have finished putting
in their crops.
Farming operations under the able
management of the farmer, J. J. Jones,
are we'll under way here. Mr.. Jones has
his hands full in apportioning the land
and showing the Indians how to plant. I
think nearly If not all the families in the
tribe will be represented in the farm this
year. There are no provisions here for
Indians and there is considerable suffer-
ing in consequence thereof Maj. Porter
received advices, before the boats COM
menced running, to The effect that there
was 5000 sacks of flour to come by the
first boat Six boats have come and the
flour has not yet arrived. Whose fault
this is, on whom the negligence rests we
leaYe for the solvers of the Gem puzzle to
find out. Il. G. Power s. Bro are run
ming the Traders establishment here with
Mr.. Aubrey formerly in charge of their
post at the Blackfoot agency in charge.
The Powers line has the contract for
carrying the mail, and the do carry it
right past here, on up to Benton. When
they come down with it, unless the post
master-general appoints postmaster here
and sends us a key to open the sack, they
will probably carry 1t on down to Bis.
marck again. We are all thinking of
having our eastern mail sent via China
in the hope that we may have key and
a postmaster by the time it gets around
and then, when we consider distances, etc.,
our mail would be as stale as 1t would be
when we know it has been up and down
the river four or five times. lsHTAH.

produce such potatoes as the Missouri
Valley on account of the lowncss OF the

properly cooked, fall to pieces like meal

Der never to leave potatoes in water over
