A statement from Greely.

Boston, Aug. ia special from Ports.
mouth, N. H., says: Early this morning
Col. Kent obtained an interview with
Lieut.. Greedy, who admitted that he
had Henry shot by military execution
on the 9th of June. AS earlay as March
he suspected that Henry was stealing the
limited food which was apportioned
out to the survivors, and this fact being
finally known positively, Lieut.. Greedy
had thereafter hard work to protect it,
and it became necessary IN order to
keep up the discipline to inform Henry
that he would be shot il the practice was
continued, and that o similar fate
would be meted out to any other mem
Der of the party detected in o like crime
If Henry had been permitted to con
tinue his stealings unmolested the bal
ance of the party wonld surely have
starved to death, and Henry alone sur
vived. Afterwards, and in spite of these
warnings, Henry was again detected ir
stealing provisions, among the food
taken being two pounds of bacon, The
eating of 80 much of which made him
sick. Search was then instituted. Wher
found Henry had among other articles
| oSSASA oiO oCSA0VCu q pair vi bedlShlI
boots which had belonged to the hunter
Of the party. Lieut.. Greedy was there
fore forced, in order to maintain militar,
discipline and protect the lives of hi
other comrades, to Issue writtep order
that Henry be shot, which order wa
carried into effect June g.
As to the alleged cannibalisln, Greel,
says If there was anything of the kind
must have been an individual acl
Nothing of the kind. however, cam

singing now IN progress, which is dignj.
fed by the name of a presidential CAM
paign. The managers of either party
seem to have overlooked the fact that
there are questions Of material impor.
tance at issue, and are bending every
effort to show that the opposition can.
didate is just little worse than their
own. The real situation from repub.
lican standpoint seems to
be this: Were Cleveland above
reproach in every personal Far
ticular, he would still be the inexper.
fenced, untried representative OF party
whose record Oh the wrong side of every
question of progress and reform in ma.
tional affairs is familiar to even the most
casual observer of its career during the
past twenty years. He has had no part
in shaping the policy of the party be.
hind him, has given no signs of leader
ship during his public career, and would
be powerless to act Independently Of the
influences which will inevitably surround
him IN case of democratic success. On
the other hand, Blaine is nothing if not
a representative republican in every
sense of the word. He has had an active
part in making the history of his party,
has led in many of its most glorious tri-
umphs. and has never shirked his
full measure of responsibility for the
blunders it has made. Instead of tool
in the hands of the party managers, he
would it elected, continue and grow in
that leadership which, despite all his
faults. has made him the prominent
figure in American politics that lie is.
He is as far above the reach of personal
slanders US Cleveland is below him in
brains and experience. and that contrns,
in itself is issue enough.

fore new settlers here, and mapy
others who are preparing to come,
have formed an organization
and will select land on the reservation
and in lawful and persistent manner
present the same to the secretary Of the
interior and the president and ask for an
executive order for the opening Of this
country. Each settler will select his
land and make deposit for it. They
agree to protect each other in their
squatters' rights, and it is hinted make
it lively for any man who attempts to
take another mans claim They will
not move upon the land until after the
representatives have visited Washington.
This is very fine agricultural land. The
organization will employ the best of
counsel, and proceed in the most law
abiding manner. Many old soldiers,
who are wanting homes. are in it.

A DISPUTED TITLE.

White Settlers Laying Claim to Crow Creek
and WtnnebagO Reservations.
Chamberlain, Dak., Aug. ga strong
organization il being formed here to test
the question of whether the lands adjoin.
ing Chamberlain, called the Winnebago
and Grow Greek reservation, are Indian
lands or not. The Indian department
has claimed all the time that it was
part of the great Sioux reservation, but
the Chamberlain Register has published
a synopsis Of the treaties and orders
which shows that it was all sold BY the
Yankton Sioux to the government in
1858, and the government ceded part OF
it to the Winnebagoes about 1868, and
took it back in 1865; that no part of the
land was q reservation in 1868; that
Grants order under which Price
claims it was made part of the
great reservation by the treaty of
1868, was not issued until 1875, eight
years after the treaty was made. The
| register shows 1t was not mentioned in
the treaty of 1876 (the Black Hills), and
that Grants orders of 1915 embraced all
the country from Fort Randall north to
the forty.sixth parallel, and as far east
as the present east line of Brule county.
Hayes, in 1879, opened all this county
except few tracts, and all the latter
except one near Chamberlain, Teller
opened this year. The Sioux commits.
sionels agree that this is now a part of
the great Sioux reservation The Indi.
ans were told long ago that their title
was not good. and that they had better

title to the rest, as they were only squat.
