OF the Drowning of Charles Hanson Near
vermiilion.
Vemillion Republican.
Charles Hanson, formerly q blacksmith
of this place, who lived on Lime Greek,
Nebraska, came to this city on Monday
last to do some trading, bringing along o
neighbor by the name of Ole Haverson.
They started for home about dusk, Han
son driving pair of mules with sled.
In going over the Missouri he got off
the track of travel on the ice and drove
directly into large air hole some rods
in diameter. Hanson was walking by
the side of the sled driving the mules,
while Halverson was walking behind.
Halverson's story of the disaster was,
that it was quite dark, and they were
crossing the ice in general direction to
reach the Nebraska shore, when all at
once the mules stopped and refused to
60 further. Hanson commenced to whip
them, when they moved forward Lit.
tie and went crashing into the water.
Hanson seemed to have the lines firmly
attached to his hands. and he went in
with the team into fifteen or twenty feet
of water running abont six miles per hour
Tho mules, sled and man went down
under the ice and forever disappeared
Mr.. Halverson returned to town, about
three miles, and Sheriff Mcdonald led Q
party to find the scene of the disaster
and was out nearly all night. He thought
possibly Halverson might not be correct
in his view of the accident. Mr.. Hanson

j. d. Cameron at Home.


On last evenings train ]. ID. Cameron
arrived from st. LOUIS, having been re-
leased on $1,000 bail for his appearance
there again on the second Tuesday in
February, to answer to an Indictment for
conspiring to defraud the government.
In an interview Cameron states that the
indictments found at st. Louis pay no
attention to the Santa Fe feature of the
char0es against him, Carpenter and Rus
sell, District Attorney Bliss holding that
the New Orleans cases are all that have
anything like merit, and the attorneys of
the defendants will of course undertake
to make it appear that the New Orleans
features are no better than the Santa Fe.
John is as hopeful as ever, that he will
come out of the trial with vindication.
He says that the officials at st. Louis are
''dandies," and that he was never better
used anywhere than during his stay
there. He is to be defended by Dyer,
Lee & Ellis, an eminent legal firm of the
Future Great, who seem to be very sure
that they will clear their client. Only
one indictment has been found against
him, and the United States attorney says
that if he cannot get conviction upon
that, he cannot hope to get it upon any.

"sRE WE A FREE pEQpLe?"
A Popular Query and one Easily Answerc
Huron Huronite

A Popular Query and one Easily Answered.
Huron Huronite.
On the fourth day Of July in each
year innumerable vast concourses of peo-
pie gather in all parts of our great coun-
try to celebrate the anniversary of its
freedom. The American eagle is spread
in grand style by orators Of high and
low degree, and their patriotic utteran.
ces are cheered enthusiastically by the
assembled thousands. The declaration
reminder of the absolute equality of the
rights to all who have the inestimable
'banner of the free" Now all this
means or oug ht to mean something. 1t
means honor to our forefathers, who by
their determined efforts threw off the
yoke of the oppressor. It means re-
newal Of our faith in the superiority Of
our form of government -an annual mu.
tual pledging to maintain our rights as a
nation against oil attacks, and guaran-
tee to each and every member of the
grand federation of equal justice and
right.
With such understanding Dakota cele-
brates the national birthday with enthu-
siasm equal to the most patriotic. Be-
lieving in the good faith of the united
commonwealths, she has submitted most
loyalty to them. Having complied most
fully with the requirements, she now
applies for admission as one of them.
Yesterday was the day set for the pre-
sentation of her claims to congress, and
We have yet to learn the result. The
outlook, however is not encouraging.
We are advised that Mr.. Hale still per-
sists in using his accidental power to
make the United States senate collec-
tion agency for private debts against q
single county OF our territory.
We are informed that the democratic
members of congress would favor the
admission to take effect the next day
after the presidential election in 1884
otherwise they would undoubtedly op.
pose it as o unit.
It is now moderately cstimsted that
Dakota has population Of 3O0OOO
With the great rush Of Immigration
coming upon us there ia no doubt but
that we shall have 100000 two years
hence.
Citizens of Dakota, the democratic
members of congress coolly propose Il
disfranchise 600.000 people at the mex
presidential election, that they may pos
sibly gain the nscendancy in the contro
'cf the nation. Is it possible that con
