DAKOTA DARKIES.
The Reason for Transporting
Negroes from Missouri TO
the Northwest.

The following startling piece Of news
was sent out of st. Paul Thursday
night as a telegram to a Chicago
paper:
The story of the big land steal has
been pumped out Of one Of a party of
forty negroes, who had tickets by the
Manitoba line and left last night for
Larimere, their purpose being to pre-
empt and claim government land. 1t
is claimed the men are sent North
and their expenses paid by two St.
Louis parties, Mr.. Larimere aud j.
W. Booth, who are interested in the
lands on the Devils Lake branch of
the st. Paul, Minneapolis & Manitoba
line, and know their value. According
to the statement Of the negroes, the
pre- emptors are to get possession Of
the government land by perjury, and
then sell out their claims Tor a nomi-
nal sum to the st. Louis firm, who in
turn would sell them at a profit or
keep them as large farms. The latter
course would keep out from settlement
numbers of people. and defeat the OBJ
jects and purposes intended in the
laws Of Congress in encouraging the
occupancy of vacant lands. Some of
the finest lands in Dakota are involved
in this job.
The basis Of the dispatch is the re-
cent shipment of between thirty and
forty negroes to work on the lands Of
the Elk Talley Farming Company,
but the assertions are far from the
facts. The corporation is composed
of j. ". Booth Il Sons and j. w. &
N. G. LariInere, Of st. Louis. They
commenced buying lands in Dakota
in November, 1880, and have now
some twelve thousand acres. Last
fall and winter a large amount, some
four thousand acres, WAS broken.
Through Mr.. G. d. Shortridge, Of
Macon, Mo, the company engaged
thirty-two Hegroes to 60 to Dakota on
a seven months contract for $25 a
month and board. These negroes are
TO be put under the direction of Mr,
Oscar Towner, the resident represen-
tative Of the company, the programme
being to put the ground in wheat and
keep the negroes busy through the
harvest. Speaking ofthe matter to a
reporter, Mr.. Booth said this was all
the company had in view of sending
tho negroes to their lands. They gave
high wages, but it was stipulated that
out of this the men must pay for their
transportation. Speaking of the in
vestment, Mr.. Booth said the company
had invested upward Of $l25, 900 in
Dakota farms. The land was purchased
of bona fde settlers, and the deeds are
duly recorded.

The ~nonsensical Old Virginians are
engaged in an earnest and exciting
discussion as to the truthfulness OF
the Mother Goose story Of Pocahontas

alleged grandson of the backwoods
fiddler, Patrick, has just delivered an
elaborate address on the thrilling

either? What counterfeit nickels

go to wheelbarrowing manure on their

How Those Who Have Money
Easily Make MOre-A De-
scriptiOn OF Gould.
New York Letter to aAlisnani's.

New York Letter to daIignani's.l
Jay Gould's regular broker-Con-
nor-issonly one Of the many in his
service, and Conner himself eften en-
ploys other brokers in order to carry
out Gould's secret schemes. 1t was
in this manner that Gould depressed
the elevated stock until it touched
the desired point, when he loaded
himself with all he could carry. He
then changed from bear to bull,
working out his] scheme with
grand success. A vast amount
Of money was lost by those who
sold out under Gould's attack, aud the
advance of these very shares now adds
a million or more to his wealth. 1t has
for ten years been Gould's role to
watch for weak stocks. When he has
made a selection he forces it down by
q series Of well concerted attacks, and
then makes heavy purchases and forces
the market up as easily as he forcedi it
down. Only a nan of the highest
order Of genius can carry on such a
system, and the fact that Gould sue
ceeds is the greatest proof of his vast
natural powers.
Gould is the most inferior Of all
leading business men in point of per-
sonal appearance, and a stranger would
take him for a Bowery clothes dealer
rather han a railway king. He has
the air of a spruce traficker in cheap
goods. Both front and side face are
inferior, but the lower part of the lat
ter is concealed in a heavy beard so
intensely black that it suggests artiti-
cial means. Gould leads a hard life.
He labors With close application, and
is driven by the pres dre of his en-,
gagements until he NAV be considered
a mere bondman. He has no leisure,
no society, no reading. no recreation,
but is simply under the whip and spur
of necessity. To this has been added
the consciousness of impending dan.
ger. He has a body guard of detect
ives 10 protect him when walking the
streets, but he spends most of his time
in his office, being as secluded as pos
sible.

swearing a Chiuaman.

Montreal Witness.l
In the police court a few days ago
the case of Vaudeville against Fong
Lei was up before Mr.. Dugas. 1t
need scarcely be said that Fong Lei is
a Chinsman and a la~undryman. Man
deSille owned the cabin on st. Cathe-
rine street where Lei was wont some
four weeks ago 70 renoVate the linen
of his customers. Vaudeville swore
that Lei had damaged his property by
destroying a counter painted brown,
which was in the shop. The plaintiff
and his witnesses made out their case,
and then the defense was called.
Song Long was the first witness, a
dark eyed, cheerful Celestial, who
certainly looked as If he had his wits
about him.
What is your name?" said the
Clerk.
Song Long"
What are yeu?" said the Magis-
trate.
"Be Chinaman."
What do you believe in?"
Me believe in anything" replied
the accommodating son Of Confueius.
How do you swear?' persisted the
Court.
Me no swear at alice" depreest-
ingly and in a half injured tone from
the stand.
The court then remembered having
heard Of Chinaman who was sworn
by getting on his knees and breaking a
saucer.
DO you swear on a ~saucer2" quoth
one OF the clerks.
No, me don't" responded Song,
and as the awful knowingness Of the
clerical lnquisitor forced itself upon
his mind, he queried, "You know that,
A pause ensued, and the court gath.
cred strength for a fresh attack.
Are you Buddhist" was asked.
Me knowee not what you say,
What you talkee about?" and a sus.
piciOus glance fell upon the interro.
gator.

To the State Of Ohio was the sin
gular reply.
Were you born there?"
No, me come in a big ship iron
- At least l6 syllables Of pur,

mouth as he pronounced the name 0
his birthplace.
The court at last came TO the con
clusion that be could swear by cross
ing his hands upon bis heart and th
ceremony was accordingly done j tha
way. The Celestials were finally re
manded until some future day.

The Memphis & Charleston

New York Banker and Broker.
The agreement between this COM
pany and the East Tennessee, Vir-
ginia & Georgia results in consolida-
ton within sixty days, OF time neces
sary for legal notice, the Memphis &
Charleston becoming part of the East
Tennessee, Virginia & Georgia, instead
Of being leased BY that company. The
terms of this consolidation, as already
stated, are that, in lieu of the s., 3l2,-
900 stock Of the Memphis & Charles
ton, the East Tennessee, Virginia &
Georgia issues A,387, 900 Of its income
bonds, same amount Of its preferred
stock, and s 1900, 600 of its common
stock, retiring the Memphis & Charles.
ton securities, and disbanding its or
ganization. This arrangement, how
ever, does not affect the $4,222, 600
first mortgage bonds on the Memphis
a. Charleston property, which remains
statu quo. The issue to the Memphis
& Charleston stockholders will BIZ 20
per cent of their holdings in income
bonds, 20 per cent preferred stock, and
100 per cent common stock. The in.
comes pay 6 per cent. interest, payable
in April and October. The Memphis
Il Charleston earned last year $l50,000
over and above fixed charges, interest,
etc and the amount necessary to pay
this 6 per cent on the incomes. The
stock and bonds thus issued by the
East Tennessee, Virginia & Georgia to
the Memphis e. Charleston stock
holders shares alike with the securities
Of the iermer in all benefits and pro-
lection. The surplus Of the issue for
the Memphis e. Charleston stock, over
that given to the stockholders, goes
into the treasury for betterment Of
that line, and is sufficient TO pay the
floating debt, complete the relaying Of
the road in steel rails and substitution
of iron bridges for wooden ones.

Zine Cut PoIlneal Eeonomy.


The Avalanche is manifestly a re-
pudiator in an adroit but rather a thin
costume. 1t says: There is no more
reason for repudiating one-half the
debt than there is for repudiating the
whole" Yet the Avalanche was in
favor Of cutting down the interest
from 6 to 3 per cent, without investi-
eating any Of the alleged equities"
If it is Just as bad to r~epudiate or
scale a part of the debt as the whole,
is not the same principle applicable in
scaling the interest, or rather cutting
it in two, as proposed by the Ava
lanohe? That consistent journal
objected to the coupon feature, not to
the rate, and yet there is no evidence
that all the bondholders agreed to any
such terms. 1t is almost heart rending
to detect petty ~repudiation insidiously
advocated in the very sanctuary Of the
one paper that, to use its own language,
stands solitary and alone the cham
pion Of the honest resumption of the
payment Of the State debt" Et te
Brute Think of a poor orphan in New
York or Amsterdam holding a $1,000
Tennessee bond and getting only $50
q year interest under the repudiatirg
policy ofthe Avalanche, Bhea it is
nominated" on the face Of the bond
that he should have $50. 1t is enough
to make the editor Of the Knoxville
Chronicle weep.

TOO L BUT.
The EsthetIc Plan Which is 10
SuPersede the Newspaper
Personal.

Missouri Republican,
The very latest method adopted by
ladies who wish to extend their circle
Of gentleman acquaintance is some
what more aesthetic than the now
common one of putting a personal in
the newspapers, stating that a lovely
lady wishes to form a friendship with
a person Of the opposite sex who is
fond Of going to the theater. No one
not meaning business need apply. The
new method is to write a letter so
worded that the impression given the
recipient is that he has known the
writer. A legal gentleman on Fifth
street who now frequently gets honor
able mention in the newspapers, has
been puzzled very much by the re-
ceipt ola communication of this sort,
of which the following is a copy:
ST. LOUIS, No, March 8, 1882.
L have not seen you since the first of

I'm unable to read or sew, and ma will

vous at times. As soon as | am able

main there in the future if it improves
my health. Ma and father have gone

have to attend to it for her. If you
wish to answer you can do so by ad.

From these delicate little conf
dences~ concerning her ma pa and grand
ma the recipient was at first inclined
to think the writer some young lady
making one Of his circle Of intimate
friends, bat on reflection, he abandon.
ed the idea,..a as he is positive she has
never seen or heard OF the writer.
