said he would not rob the Indians of an
inch-not an acre-of the land which
has been given to them, but would give
to each head of a family $50 acres OF
land, and eighty acres to each individ-
ual, and teachsthem the first principles
of civilization-to earn their bread by
the sweat of their brows; and for he
balance of their lands he would issue
government bonds bearing 4 per cent.
interest, and pay it to them honestly.
He did not believe in having them rob

placing them under the jurisdiction OF
the war department. That the presi-
dent and General Sheridan himself were
opposed to it.

The Canadian Pacific Excursionlsts.

WINNIPEG, Aug. 30.-The Canadian
Pacific railroad magnates and friends
arrived back from Calgary this morn
ing. All speak in warm terms Of the
trip. The train ran to the end of the
track, $40 miles, in thirty-three hours;
returning, it covered the distance in "a
hours. The party visited all points of
interest along the way. Vice President
Mcintyre was interviewed to-day, and
said the line was definitely located
across the Selkirk range of the Rockies,
and will gothrough a pass discovered by
Maj. Rogers of the United States, now
the Canadian Pacific railroad explorer
in the Rockies. Mr.. Mcintyre says the
line will be completed from Montreal to
Kamloops B. c., by the end of 1885.
He says the policy is to complete the
line as soon as possible. The party went
over the southwestern branch of the
Canadian Pacific road to-day, and re-
turned tonight, and will leaye for Fort
Arthur at 4 o'clock in the morning.
Some of the party return east by the
Make route. The train will return here
Sunday and leave for st. Paul that morn

The Montana Case Settled.

The Denver Tribune says: The hear
ing of the exposition managers against
John Read, the commissioner from
Montana, came off before Judge Elliott
in chambers yesterday morning. The
entire forenoon was occupied in the ar
gument. At the conclusion OF the hear
inc Judge Elliott delivered his decision,
which was similar to that delivered IN
the case against Arizona. The costs are
to be paid by the exposition and so much
of the injunction as relates to the pack
ing of the exhibit is vacated. Mr.. Read
will probably leave for Montana to-day.
The suits for damage against him and
the Arizona commissioner are yet pend
ing, and will probably be compromised.

A r. r. from Helena.

Mr.. E. G. Maclay, who has just re-
turned from Helena, informs us there is
a great deal of talk at the capital about
the Fort Benton branch, and the citizens
of that town are fully awake to the i'm
portance of having the branch cave the
main line at Helena, and if persistent
efforts on their part will prove effective
the road will be built from Helena. They
aro,1e that the Northern Pacific will be
compelled, in order to shut out the Utah
& Northern, to build a branch from Hell
ena to Fort Benton, and do it speedily.
Mr.. Maclay looks at the matter in very
much the same light, and thinks our
first railroad will come from Helena.

Sitting Bull as a Iaborer.

Captain Belk, of the steamer Jose
phine, says as worker Sitting Bull is
Ehard to beat. On a trip recently TO
STANDING Rock, the captain was minus
the necessary number of laborers, and
on his arrival at that point he applied
to an Interpreter to arrange with Sitting
Bull for help in the work Of unloading
over a hundred tons of freight. After a
a short consultation, Mr.. Bull called his
warriors together and told them that the
Great Father had sent a boat load OF
good things for them to eat, but had not
sent the adequate number of white men
to unload it. When the smoke from
their pipes of consideration had vanished
into infinitude fifteen stalWart red men
signified their willingness to lay aside
their blankets and bare their s~hOuldersto

laborers with the s~ubstantials, work was
continued until the cargo was all on ter

were then distributed among the braves,
when Sitting Bull came forward, and
informed the captain that his services
might be rewarded at the same price.
| A dollar was slipped into the old chiefs
hand, for which he was profuse with
| thanks. The old man did not come to
Dakota solely for his physical and spirit
