HARRlOS IN LONDON.

1t is interesting to learn from the
newspapers that His ENcellency, Gen
eral Rutliano Barabbas, or some such
name, the President of the Republic OF
Guatemala, arrived recently ut the
Langham Hotel, attended by his suite.
OF what the suite consisted we are not
told. 1t numbered nineteen, but
whether nineteen ring-tailed monkeys,
chfmpanzees, halfcastc Indians, or
civilized human beings were the
chosen attendants of this worthy Cen
eral or not we can not say. Guatemala
has very respectable forcighn debt, on
which she pays nothing and which
Barabbas tried to repudiate. He did
not succeed in that, but as he pays
nothing, he has still got the best end
OF the stick. 1t is said that he wants
to make terms with the bontholders,
and as they can not put him in Clerk
enwen Prison they had better take n
look at him and get the best of him if
they can; but If the encounter comes
of, we should back Barabbas.

through the line at Ogallala, and
though they had but q few hours start
the soldiers with fresh horses never
overlook them. They finally went in
and surrendered to an officer from Fort
Robinson. Gen. Crook, who is the
best authority I know of on the Indian
question, shys an Indian is like part
ridge Ora prairie chicken. When in
concealment nothing but an Indian
can find him.
81 hardly know who's to blame tor
this trouble. McGillicuddy had correct
ideas when he went to the agency. He
said it was no use to try to clVillze
these Indians too rapidly, and while
he meant to break up the tribal rela-
tons he would do it cautiously. But
L hear he got in a hurry. His first
success gave him overconfidence. He
said he could manage the Sioux Indians
without any help from anybody. The
agent who says that is apt to need help
very soon. McGiilicuddy is not more
than Sc years old He was a physician
in Michigan. Fond of adventure, he
became surgeon to surveying party
engaged in locating our boundary line
in the Northwest. Then he became a
contract surgeon in the army, was in
the Rosebud campaign, and attended
old Chief Crazy Horse after he was
shot. lie became physician to the Red
Cloud Indians, and held that Office
until he was appointed agent. He has
been an honest, handwriting friend
of the Sioux, but he is a great theorist,
and finds himself now in q dilemma
where none of his theories can help
him. His wife has been an invaluable
help to him. Though cultured, she is

M'GlLLlCUDDY AND RED CLOUD.

A man from Nebraska who is stopp-

to a Sun reporter: 81 see there is
trouble on hand at Red Cloud Indian
Agency. 1t has been brewing for Il
good while. 1t may be adjusted, but
if SO it Will be by the display of more
diplomacy than the Indian Bureau has
shown for years.
"Red Cloud demands the removal OF
McGillicuddy, the agent. Do you know

and though the old chief has been some
time deposcd, he can, whenever he
desires, secure the following Of two

THE LOCAL PAPER.

Brother Mangham of the Richland
Beacon in the last weeks issue OF his
paper, makes an appeal to the business
men of his parish for advertising
patronage. The Beacon is an excel
| lent paper; in fact we have no country
exchange that we prize more highly
than we do the Beacon. we cannot
| sec how the paper can be as good as IT
is with the meager home patronage it
receives which necessarily entails an
immense amount of labor on its editor,
who also acts as printer. We agree
with the Beacon that the scarcity OF
local advertisements in its columns is a
sad commentary on the business ener-
gy and view of the business men OF
| Richland generally and Rayville in
particular. 1t is conceded fact by all
prosperous business men OF the world
that advertising pays the advertiser.
More fortunes have been made by bust
ness men by a free use of printers ink
than in any other way. The merchant
who will not advertise, either cares not
to let the people know what he is do
ing, or is too stingy to pay for the adj
vertisement; in the first case he does
not deserve the public patronage, (and
in most Instances don't get much) and
in the second case success with him re-
| comes with that freedom and ease that
the liberal man experiences:
A good newspaper is a blessing to any
community, and every individual in
| that community is interested, and
should SO feel, in keeping it up and in
a prospecting condition. 1t adds vital
ity to a town and advances the material
interest of every legitimate enterprise.
No business man can conscientiously
and honestly say that he docs not be-
lievo advertising does any good. Give
him Il gratuitous complimentary notice
and see how quick he VIII notice it and
how pleased he will be with you for it.
Where is the merchant that would say
he did not believe it would benefit his
business very materially to have Il
messenger visit five hundred ora thous-
and families in his immediate section
once every week and tell them Of all
the good and useful goods and wares
that this merchant was selling, all the
important changes that were taking
place in his stock of goods and how he
was proposing to sell goods to those who
might patrOniZe him and what mer-
chant would not be willing to pay such
a messenger fifty or a hundred or even
two hundred dollars a year to make
these weekly revelations to this numcr-
Gus people? We do not believe that
q single merchant will not agree with
us in this proposition. The local
newspaper does all of this where it is
patronaged by the local merchant, and
it does more than visit the families Of
the people, it stays with them and con-
tinues to tell them the good news all
the week. Whenever the eyes rest
upon it the person is reminded of the
merchant who advcrtises. Yet how few
there arc who are willing to pay this
faithful servant even Il mcager support,
a bare meat and bread living, to do
them this faithful aud honest servicc!--

THE COST OF FENCES.

1t has been estimated by Bradstrcct's
that there arc six million miles OF fence
in the United States, the cost Of which
has been more than 1000, 100000 or
about $685. mile. Formerly the fences
of farms We're built Of wood, and the
annual repairs put heavy tax upon
the farmers. The last cen. as shows
that the cost of such repairs in 1877 was
$7S ,G29, GOO. Most farm fences are now
built of Wire, and sixty thousand miles
of such fence We're built in 1881, at a
cost Of $4,000, 900, or about half the
cost per mile of the Old wooden fences.
The duty on the steel rods of which
the wire fencing is made is so per cent
and Legislation has been proposed
which would greatly increase the cost
to farmers Of wire fences.
Such action would be unwise and un-
Just. The new settlers upon the dis
tant prairies arc struggling hard to in
close their land, and the additional tax
would bear heavily upon them. The
invention of wire fence has made it
feasible to inclosu vast tracks of lands
for paSturagc which have heretofore
been waste. One Enclosure in New
Mexico contains seven thousand acres,
and if the price of wire fence remains
low all the unrrnced land of the coun-
try will in Il few years be Enclosed,
adding greatly to the national wealth.
Nothing should be done to rctard the
progress of the work of properly fcnc-
ing the whole country.
The village of Pownal was thrown
into 4 state of eNcitcncnt on Wednesday
by the appearance of y large black bear
on the street. At first it was sought to
drive the animal away with dogs, but
for Il considerable time the bear was
after smelling about the village to his
hearts content he moved on up the rail-
road track III the direction of North
PownaI. At this j,lnciurc one Brown
appeared upon the scene, armed and
equipped to- do battle. The first init
nation that the bear had of the APP
pcarancc of this new enemy was 4 bull
let whiStling about his ears. The bear
turned upon Brown but the latter
sought cover. When the bear reached
the railroad bridge halfway between
Pownal aud North Pownal he faced
about and stood upon his launches.
But Brown had no inclination to
tackle the bear at close quarters.
Bracing himself nlonsidc Il telegraph
pole he took aim and pulled the trigger
The ball took effect in Il vital portion
of the bears anatomy. Brown had
killed the bear, and the news of his
victory soon spread TO both villages.
