Dakota Mule Storm.

Crookston Journal: 1.-THE Devils Lake
train was delayed on Monday night, between
this city and Fisher, long enough to run into
a mule team, kill one mule and injure the
driver. One of the mules is said TO have
been drunk, but whether one of the team or
the other is not definitely stated. Some
drivers always will persist in hitching their
teams in front of saloons which this accident
shows 10 be bad practice.

The Indiam Capital.

The Huron Leader has an interesting ar
ticle upon the first capital of Dakota, the In
dian capital before the white settlement. II
was in Sphinx county, near Ashton. The
Leader says The council chamb consists
of stones being placed around circle about
fifteen feet in diameter, the ground being
scooped out so the Indians could sit around
the circle with their feet inclined toward the
center. This chamber is capable of seating
some twelve councillors, seven of whom
would be majority. AS there were many
different tribes in the valley at the time when
these legislatures met, it is probable that
each tribe had but one representative In the
council. The scenery around this old coun-
ell stone is unequaled in the James
River valley. Standing on the left
bank of the river, where the river makes a
curve to the southeast upon high bluff, is
this famous council stone. For miles up
and down the valley the view is uuobstructed.
and the many winnings of the James river
with the trees along its banks, the large
fields of ripened grain, the several towns
north and south of the Washington hills to
the westward all visible, it presents picture
beyond description. To the east a short dis
lance are the Diet lodges, once the homes of
the tribes OF that name 1t was Just oppo-
site this council stone that Gen Beadle and
his party Of surveyors narrowly escaped be-
ing massacred by Indians in 1878. Until
the last two years the Indians have returned
once year and removed the weeds and
grass from around the council stone Since
then 1t has been neglected, and in a few
years more the Indian capt. al of Dakota will
be known only In history. L..llM

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.
The Matter of Building the Rob
ert Street Bridge Taken Up
and Laid Over.
Some of the Members Present Being
Inclined to Think it an I'M
necessary Expense.
City Attorney Murray Requested to Furnish
Figures of the Probable Indebtedness
of the City.

When the board Of directors Of the cham
Der of commerce was called to order yester-
day morning a communication was read
from the New York board of trade in favor OF
a national bankrupt law, which was referred
to the mercantile committee. The secretary
also read a communication from j. A. Han
ley, general freight agent of the Minneapolis
d st. Louis railway, asking that committee
be appoin ted to receive and entertain party
of excursionists from WATERFOWL, d. T. On
motion of Mr. Moves, Averill, Moon, Lin
deke and Merrill were appointed to constitute
such committee.
THE ROBERT STREET BRIDGE.
On the resolution being called up that
was offered by DR. Day, in opposition to
the Robert street bridge, at former meet
ing, the DR.. stated his objections, which
were that our taxes are now very heavy, and
so are our assessments. We ought to 90
slow and stop all unnecessary expenses. He
had no doubt whatever that the Wabashaw
street bridge would accommodate all the
travel we have across the river for some time
to come. At Cincinnati one bridge answers
to accommo date all the travel. As to the
location it was the best that could be found.
Mr.. Oppenheim wanted to oppose DR..
Days idea of hard times. From this time
forward we will improve. We are at
the foot of the hill, and will
from this time forward go up and not down.
If we are going to have & city we must go to
work and build it. The bridge is very much
needed. The Wabashaw street structure is
inadequate.
Capt Berkey opposed the building of the
bridge at this time, and declared that our
taxes and assessments were becoming eDor-
nous, and very great deal larger than
most people know of. He felt it necessary
to caution all that the time had come when
we should all go slow. He thought all the
property in West st. Paul would be benefit
ed, and that such as was specially benefited,
ought to pay its just proportion by way OF as
sessments for the cost of the bridge. To
give the members of the board an idea OF
our municipal expenses the captain read the
following statement showing the disburse-
ments made by the city of st. Paul since
January 1st 1884. to November Is.

The captain then proceeded to argue that
we ought to commence to practice the most
rigid economy. Besides the expenses above
enumerated Captain Berkey said our schools
will cost over $500, 600, and these expenses
are simply the city expenses by way of taxa
ton. In addition TO the above are the county
and state taxes, besides the vast amount of
heavy assessments that fall directly upon the
citizens, and are exceedingly burdensome.
AT this point Gen. Bishop offered the fol-
lowing resolution
Resolved, That the chamber of commerce
approve the location of the proposed wagon
bridge at Robert street and will approve its
construction upon the following conditions
only: First, that no more than $500, 900 al
ready authorized shall be expended on said
bridge at the general expense of the city, and
second, that if said bridge shall cost more
than 5000, 600, the excess shall be levied as a
special assessment upon the property in the
First ward and Second and Sixth wards that
may be Immediately ard directly benefited
by the construction of said bridge, authority
for such special assessment TO be obtained if
necessary from the legislature.
Gen. Bishop said that he did not share in
Mr.. Oppenheim's notions about our
being about to see more prosperous times.
He did not think business men generally were
arranging their business with view to such
prosperity. He thought the location of the
bridge suitable one, and that ali property
specially benefited by the bridge should be
assessed for it. If st. Anthony Hill and
Dayton's Bluff pay a small part of this ex-
pense of the bridge they will have done all
their duty. In his opinion we ought to with
hold all public improvements that can posi-
bly, be postponed.
Mr.. H. S. Fairchild argued generally in
favor of increasing our public improvements
instead of curtailing them, and insisted that
now was the time to crowd forward all public
improvements as rapidly as possible
Mr.. Somers, in response to a request of
Gen. Averill, said that the bridge would cost
about $500, 900 and would be similar TO the
Wabashaw street bridge.
Mr.. Noyes was opposed to unnecessary
expenditures of money, but he hoped that
the chamber would not put itself on record
against so great public improvement
A motion was made that the subject be
postponed one week, and that in the mean
time the committee on legislation ascertain
and report TO the chamber the probable in
debtedness Of the city for the year in bonds
and every liability.
Several members threw ia motions and
substitutes until the whole matter was con-
siderably befogged. Finally the chair enter
tanned a motion to lay she subject
on the table, which was carried, Mr.. Murray
promising that the desired information in
regard to the expenses of the city should be
furnished next Monday morning. after
which the chamber adjourned.

In a late issue the Yankton Press
and Dakotaian says: sThe Black Hills
business men have found Il new way
to get out into the world. and posi-
bly, Il better as it is a shorter, over
land route than all the others. The
new outlet is at Dickinson, a North.
ern Pacific railroad point in Stark
county, Dakota. The road is said to
be one of easy grades, abundantly
supplied with grass, fuel and good
water, and the distance from Sturgis
City is only 155 miles. AS the estab-
lishmsnt Of this route will be mimi.
cal to the business interests of Pierre

will have to be done to %abbreviate the

THE Fargo Republican of last Sum-
day published an interesting and
strong plea for territorial rights. and
bases its arguments Oh facts and fig
ures which show that Dakota be-
tween 1870 and 1880. has had a larger
per cent of increase in her population
than any Of the western sta ties OF ter.
ritories and that she now has in
round numbers 400, 600 population.
This is a greater population than Was
ever possessed by q territory at the
time of its admission into the Union
and the Republican shows that even
should the territory be divided into
North and South Dakota, either half
would contain a larger population by
10000 than the average of the twenty
five states that have been admitted
since the ratification of the constitu.
tion. These facts are not to be dis.
pulsed and if Dakota is not admitted
to statehood by the present demo-
cratic congress. that party will COM
NIT a blundcr that will not soon be
forgotten by the people of Dakota.

The following is from a Deadwood
paper and shows that the business
mel of the Hills are aware of the
advantages to be gained by the Dick
inson and Deadwood line: s'Seyen
men will leave Minnesota, the county
seat of Butte county, tomorrow with
a guide, to ascertain the shortest and
most feasible route to this point on
the Northern Pacific railroad. They
will go prepared to build bridges over
the streams necessary and to grade
portions of the road required, which
will make it one of the best leading
to the Hills. Men who have Just
come over it state positively the dis.
lance is only $50 miles; that they
made the trip in nine days hauling
$500 pounds per team of two mules
and without doubling any of the dis
lance until the Belle Fourche was
reached. Minnesota is working with
vim that is c~ommendable in this
matter, in order to help themselves
as we'll as our city by laying out the
route, which we learn is direct
through their town. \ stage line of
Concord coaches by A. B. Agno. will
be put on this road as 500 as his
vehicles arrive. This route is no
bugbear to arouse competition mere.
ly, but a bona tide transaction that

The Thames wateTmen, who offered
their services in the expedition for the re-

they were overlooked and that assistance
was sought in Canada.
Henry NJ. Stanley had a long conference
with Gen. Lord Wolseley yesterday.
Stanley is infavor of the expedition pro-

and place for an attack, there being no
chance of the rebels entering the water to
attack the British forces.
A portion of the Sussex regiment has
arrived at Wady Halfa, and the remainder

Wady Halta to haul the steamers of the
Gordon relief expedition through the cata-
racts are reported to be in a starving con-

the men is becoming increasingly serious.
The country only supplies a small amount

dogs. Punch Doughtie, on whose place

to kill, presents a CHASTITY spectacle from
the wound, which has produced sudden and
wonderful emaciatiOn. AS yet this mule
has betrayed no symptoms of madness, but
is kept apart, and the progress of the NAL
ady carefully watched and noted by med
ical men. The same course is also pur-
sued with the small dog. The symptoms
shown of the hogs bitten, five in number,
and all Berkshires, were frOthing at the
mouth, blind staggers, fits, final collapse
and death. The plantation has been Wis
tied to-day by crowds Of curious neigh
bors, both black and white, to see their

tending physician, has not changed his
opinion that the majority of the cases will

Indians found that these Indians, about
