FL Bauetero, FL Reiugio, La Provideneia and
La Ventura, all silver mines. These mines
have been examined by experts. and assays

assayer Of the State Of Massachusetts, who
reported very favorably on the same, in
October, 1882.
This vast estate is at present only three
and a half days travel from the
city Of San Antonio. Worked, as it is to-day,
it pays an interest Of 3 per cent. on a capital
of $4,000 600. To develop the mines will
necessitate the erection Of smelling works at a
pace on the estate named (Sin Juan de la
Crul) at a cost Of Soc, 200, and like sum
would be needed for working capital. But
that capital would be sufficient to secure a
daily income varying between $1,000 and
SI7oo per day, net profit.

A w0ULD-BE SUICIDE.
Strange Discovery of IA Man Hanging by
His Heels Near Houston Street.

Asmy friend and were walking past the old
bridge, our attention was attracted by man
who was hanging head downward from one of
the cross beams, with his feet 80 wedged In be-
tween the tmbers that it took several minutes
and our united efforts before we could extri-
cate him. Upon lifting him up / found my
hands covered with blood, and as l laid him
down upon the bridge, saw a deep CASA ex-
tending from ear to ear across his throat. We
were horrihed at the CHASTITY spectacle, and my
friend hastened away for physician. In the
meantime noticed an occasional trembling
of the would-be suicide, and judged rightly
that life was not extinct. by this time the
physician arrived and at once applied restora-
tiYes, and In a few moments the poor fellow
recovered consciousness. ! knelt down beside
nnraieIy' and he reached up. and taking INV
pencil out of my pocket, wrote on the back Of

me to buy watch from Emerson; | bought

The Leader has never heretofore Joined

as the question at issue were many sided,
and as we knew little of him personally
We wished to avoid all danger of doing
injustice. But the past week has settled
it for US. His disgusting antics at Huron
were enough to destroy the last remain
ing vestige of respect for him in the
mind of any spectator. He chose to
take offeuse at the language of the reso.
lutions. and at late hour at night he
repaired to the Wright house
and made beastly attack
upon U. 3. Attorney Campbell,
chairman of the committee on resolu.

Governor Oriway and General Campbell.
Medicine Valley Times.
On Tuesday night, after the adjourn
mcnt of the convention in Huron, for
the night, Gov. Ordway accosted Chief
Justice Campbell, who was chairman Of
the committee on address to the people,
and called him to account for the Lam
guage employed which refers to his veto
as the arbitrary exercise Of foreign veto
power. Judge Campbell mildly respond
ed that the committee considered that
the most fitting phrase. and he ~ chair
man had to report it. This did not seem
to satisfy the governor, who replied
in great heat, and Judge Campbell
rejoined that he fully concurred
with the other members of the commit.
tee as to the appropriateness OF the Ian.
guage. Thereupon the governor is
reported to have threatened to knock
Judge Campbell's head off. The Judge
replied that the governor had already
lost sufficient dignity. and should pre-
serve what be had left. if any, which is
said to have further incensed the execu-
tive, but friends interposed and prevent.
ed acollision.
Judge Campbell is reported to have
fully preserved his own dignity and the
respect OF all who witnessed the affair,
while the chief magistrate behaved very
badly and added to his unpopularity by
his assuming the role of bully.

THE STATE.

General Campbell's Pamphlet of Author
ities..
Codington County Courier.
A pamphlet for the hour is that by
Hugh J. Campbell, o. =. attorney for
Dakota, entitled, ''The State, How it
May be Formed from the Territory"
From careful and studied perusal of
which We think the proposition clearly
to be established, that 80 territory is not
colony subject to the unlimited power
of congress" but portion of the United
States, possessed Of inalienable rights
guaranteed by national ordinances. by
international treaties, which have been
by the supreme courts of the different
states, as also by that OF the United States,
often and favorably construed with ref.
erence to those rights. As clearly set
forth is the right of territory
as Of state to alter, amend,
or substitute cons titu.
tion for prior form of government, or
to originate state whose boundaries
and whose authority shall be determined
''of the people and BY the people and for
the people," Quite as clearly is shown
the legal duty of congress to recognize
ami admit such self-formed state to the
privileges of the union, though there is
lacking the power to coerce q congress
should it refuse to do its duty in the
premises, all of which means that the
people of Dakota or portion thereof,
or portion of the people OF two or
more territories, have the unassailable
right to throw off the congressional
form of self-governm ent. That the
courts of the United States will recog
nize the legality of such self.formec
state and the acts of its officials rather
than those Of the territory, even wher
there has been no enabling acts by con
Rress, neither any congressional recog
milton.
In other words. The Huron conven
tion is in the line of tie peoples right
and duty If indeed they desire self-gov
ernment, and should We remain inde.
pendent of congress it will not be be.
cause we have seeded, but because CON
gress has been unfaithful. Indeed. oul
union with the executive and Judicial
branches of the government would bt
perfect, Notwithstanding congress shoule
secede from us.
We commend this pamphlet as an ex
haustive textbook on the primary right
Of our people, to all delegates to th,
Huron convention, for We believe it t,
be sound in its lessons from the Declara
ton of Independence, the constitution
of the United States, and the treatie
which are part also of our fundamen
tai law.

A Dastardly Act.
2ianx Ealls Peaaa

Saturday evening, as the Sioux City
passenger train was coming around
the bend three miles south of town the
engineer saw some obstruction on the
track about 100 feet ahead. He at once
put on the air-breaks. reversed the en-.
sine and opened the said box, but the
distance was too short and the speed too
great to stop the train soon enough, and
the obstruction was struck; but fortu-
nately it gave way and no especial dam
age was done. An examination showed
that somebody had deliberately placed
three ties and five links on the track for
the purpose of ditching the train; but
the ties were slightly moist so that they
slipped and were thrown off Dy the
pilot What the reason for the deviltry
could have been is more than can b.
guessed.

anything else to do with it. The night
after Garfeld's body was placed here in
this vault the cemetery employe who
stood in the shrubbery near by guarding
the vault was startled by four men who
drove mp and began rattling ut the vault
door. One of the men claimed to be q
United States officer. and wanted to
know why no guard was stationed ut the
grave. The sexton threatened to pound
him with club il he didn't leave tIi..
grounds. and the party retreated in good
order. When they returned to the city
they started the report that an attempt
had been made to rob Garfieid's grave,
and the government troops were hurried
here from Fort Wayne and placed on
guard"

PRESIDENT cARFlELo,s REMAINS.

The Face Covered With Mould and the
Features Well Nigh.Obliterated.
Cleveland. June 23.-The guards are
still watching the tomb of the late presi.
dent. When the correspondent walked
up to the vault in Lake View cemetery
containing Garfeld's body a lonely and
solitary private was patrohng in front of
the vault, with tired and weary look in
his face. By the way he held his musket
should judge it weighed in the neigh
borhood of q hundred pounds. Inside
the vault, near the entrance, is q tall
silver vase, which is filed with beautiful
flowers twice each week by florist en-
ployed by Mrs. Garfield. On the casket
is handsome wreath of immortelles,
placed there by Modjeska the actress.
when in Cleveland some months ago.
Near the wreath lies eheaf of wheat,
laid there by Garfield's father-in.law. At
the base of the casket lies the large palm
that was placed on the casket at Elbel on
on that warm morning in August when
services were held in the Franklin cot
tage by the seashore.
Fronting the tomb is wire fence, on
the gate of which hangs email tin box,
which is used as receptacle tor small
contributions by visitors to the Garfield
monument fund. The average receipts
are about $3.50 per day. At this rate it
would not take many years to secure a
goodly sum with which to build modest
monument.
"Has any one visited the remains oi
the dead, recently?" was asked of the
gnald IN attendance.
