At OLD ORCHARD.

Blaine's Speech to the Boys in Blue.
Old Orchard, Me-, Aug. Sat the re.
ception rendered Blaine by the Grand
Army of the Republic last night be
spoke as follows:
Gentlemen of the Grand Army OF
Maine. thank you for your kindly and
cordial greeting. The occasion has been
one OF great pleasure to me, in the re.
newal OF old acquaintances, and the re.
calling OF old scenes Of civil life that
antedate your splendid deeds of war.
My mind is carried back to the winter Of
1861, to the excitement, the station, and
at the same time the seriousness and
sadness of that ominous and critical
era. vividly remember every incident
as we stood on the eve of the giRan.
tic struggle when at last the war
cloud burst, and President Lincoln
issued his proclamation for $4,000
men. Maine was asked for one regi.

extra session of the legislature. 1 had
the honor to be speaker of the house of
representatives. Patriotism was fervid,
confidence was strong, and we younger
members of the legislature Il was but

thing that we ventured to hope would
be rather appalling to the confederate
government. Instead of responding with
one regiment, which the president had
asked, We authorized the government to
offer ten regiments to the national gov.
ernment, and although entirely unused
to state debt we empowered the COVER.

Gen. Fleming you, far better than T.

A Strange Expertence,

Sioux Falls Press: Miss Chase, the
school maam who has attained consider
BILE local distinction by her remarkable
ride IN school house during the hurri-
cane which swept over Highland town
ship. this county, last month-perhaps
the only experience of the kind in his
tory-was among the excursionists who
visited Sioux Falls yesterday. In order
to verify the report of the flight of the
building with its precious human freight,
we sought out Miss Chase aud got the
particulars from her own lips.
She admitted the reliability OF the
report of the voyage as given by the
Press, but desired to correct the state
ment that che was unconscious of the
progress the structure was making until
after the passage of the storm. On
the contrary, she was painfully con.
scious of the perilous situation of
affairs and ordered the twenty little ones
who were in the house with her, to pray
for safe anchorage. The first indica.
tions she had that they we're about to
change base was violent racking of the
building which overturned the stove.
Immediately after this the structure
began to move away. Now it would
bound violently over the ground and
then slip along like sled over the snow
In all it moved about half mile from its
original location.
In this connection it is opportune to
rehearse little incident of this moving
scene by both "hood and field" that has
never appeared in print. When she
ordered the children to pray for deliver.
ance, one little girl hesitated to kneel
and soon after remarked: "Perhaps We
had better wait little while, for there
may be way out of this yet" The little
toad evidently wanted to reserve the
praying as last resort.

Following Our A nclent E.a mple.

Flandrau Enterprise: Tue Minnehaha
county convention to select delegates to
Pierre was called on pretty short notice
and strong protest was made on the
part ofthe farmers. The convention has
already been held, although 1t is yet forty
days till the territorial convention will
be held. The holding OF caucuses and
conventions on short notice was com
mon thing under the old regime in Da.
kota, but it was hoped that the practice
would not be revived. The excuse made
by member of the committee who
called the convention is that it was hoped
that the action taken in an early conven-
ton IN Minnehaha county would affect
the action OF other counties in selecting
delegates. This hardly seems to be a
sufficient excuse for calling the conven.
tion SO prematurely, especially if it be
true, as farmer Of that county publicly
alleges, that a large portion of the
farmers IN the county would not receive
the papers containing notice of the con-
vention until after the time fixed for
holding the caucuses. The action of a
convention called in 80 hasty a
manner may very possibly Lave some
effect upon the action of other
counties. but it is probable that the effect
will not be in the direction anticipated
by those who called the convention. The
very idea that the other counties will
look to Minnebaha for their opinions If
pleasantly ridiculous. Yankton used to
think that it was the dog and the rest ol
Dakota the tail and acting upon this be
lief, made itself SO offensive that ex
Delegate PettiRrew was enabled 20 ride
into power on the general opposition to
Yankton. And now Sioux Falls, unable
to profit by Yankton's experience, evi
IDENTIFY feels that it has become gooc
deal more than the tail of the dog. Th.
fact is, that, in spite of the basis for the
Pierre convention, one hundred republi
can voters in little Moody county ar,
worth just as much and count Just a!
much in influence and votes as one hun
dred republican voters in big Minnehaht
county.

In company with Adjt. Gen. Finley and
Inspector Greene, of the interior depart

after reading the presidents proclama-
tion to him and his assembled followers
directed them to leave the territory
before morning or b. evicted. This oc-
CURED in small board shanty occupied
by the Oklahoma Chief, the newspaper
forms of which were being made up at
the time. Payne attempted to discuss
the legal aspects of the case, but soon
became angry and very abusive, calling
the officers of the government from the
highest to the lowest pack of thieves.
Editor Cooper chimed'in with vitupera.
ton and threats. Failing to provoke
the officers into o quarrel. Payne said
he had valise full Of money and would
give 81 900 to be tried by United States
court, and in order to assure the officers
of the case against him he would then
and there sell them liquor or cigars with
out license or permit. He urged the
officers to dine with him, and offered
them plenty of liquor if they would do
80. By this time large crowd had as
sembled from the tents and shanties
along the river, and the officers again
admonished them to leave and not re-
turn. The only reply was torrent of
abusive epithets. The officers then re-
turned to the camp ten miles distant.
