Sioux Falls Argus.
Mr.. Pettlgrew, of Sioux Falls, Dakota,
made speech last Friday at the fair
grounds. He was asked to talk on
pumpkins and garden sass, and on this
subject he started off and held to it fully
ninety.one seconds, when he drifted into
politics, and what II have DONE" He
took occasion to insult every one who
believed in the principles of democracy,
after which he took up the admission of
Dakota question. He started out by
by stating II" drew the bill, then 81" in
troduced it in the house, Il" made
speech, 81" got it INTO tho senate,
II" made another speech, "I'' got votes
pledged for its adoption, II" wrote statis-
tics, ETC., and 81" showed them around,
and here his "big 1" talk ran out for the
bill was placed on the calendar. He
stated after all the requirements of state
hood had been made clear. The pledge
of every republican senator has been
secured for the passage of the bill, ex-
cepting MIR. Hale's, he, Hale, would not
vote for the bill unless Ynnkton county
be compelled to pay her "honest obliga-
tlons" Gas Pettigrew termed it). Pet.
tigrew stated that Just for
Yankton county the whole territory
was deprived of rights which belonged
to her, and he "wlshed from the bottom
of his heart that the Missouri river
would wash Yankton county over into
Nebraska" He gave Yankton county a
terrible scoring. He said she voted the
bonds for railroad, she got the railroad
and all she asked. She paid the interest
for time and then sat back and refused
any mole money, either interest or prln.
cipal and that the last legislature grant.
ed the county the right to repu.
diate her obligations. Pettigrew was
"red hot" when he finished the above
and he dropped the subject by advoca
ting that the members OF the Legislature
pledge themselves to repeal the "obnox
ious law, whereby Yankton county was
given the right to repudiate her honest
obligations, and that a law be passed
compelling her to pay the debt which
she contracted and for which she got
value received" Mr.. Pettigrew ther
took his seat.

A Battle on the Plains.

st. Louis, Sept. 22-A special from
Denver says the particulars of twelve
sided duel between cowboys have just
reached there. Geo. Howard, owner of
herd OF three thousand cattle, and John
Kelley, owner of four thousand, were
driving in company from Arizona. North
of Trinidad, on the plains, the two herds
were to separate, Howard to follow the
Santa Fe trail to Kansas City, and Kee-
le7 to drive north to Denver. On the
route accidental exchanges had been
made and Howard insisted on having his
stock out, but was unwilling to deliver
Keeley's, and it was agreed to settle the
matter by battle between six picked
men of each party. Accordingly twelve
men ranged themselves on horseback
the two sides finely fell apart and at a
signal from the employers, the fight was
to begin. At the first fire four men were
instantly killed. Geo. Lester, of Kelley
party was shot through the breast. One
of Howard men fell with ball through
his head and two others of the same
party were shot through the breast. Dis
mayed, Howard's party. with the excep
ton of their employer, fed to theil
camp. Kelley then rode up to Howard
and proposed they fight it out, but How
ard declined, saying he understood the
matter to be settled according to terms
of battle made beforehand. This settled
the matter in an equitable manner, ant
the change of mixed cattle was thel
made. The dead were buried by th
other men of both herds and the drove1
and those in charge separated for thei
different routes.
