In IN interview with Standing Bull
of the Sitting Bull combination, The
Day of st. Paul learned thatthe Oldham
not-afraid-to-charge-a-dol
graph worked the aboriginal worship
ing cranks of the east for all they are
worth on his signature. At one place
in n evening Sitting Bull sold 112
autographs, and nothing but threatened
pen paralysis stayed his grasping hand.
He has now returned to Standing Rock
with at least ! 900 receipts from the au-
tograph fund alone, He can now buy a
herd of horned cattle, a harem and as
many caddies of southern tobacco as his
voracious and unappeasable appetite for
the noxious weed MAJ dictate. The
red man will recuperate and soon be
ready to turn the eastern pocket wrong
side out.

THE commissioner Of Indian affairs,
in his annual report, says: "Three mil
lion acres of the Crow reservation in
Montana car be given to settlers, and it
should be disposed Of and the proceeds
invested in stock for the Indians. A
court also should be established among
them. The commissioner advises more
stringent measures to prevent occupa-
ton of Indian lands by the whites, and
asks that laws in regard to timber depre-
a~ff0n& ~ ann1fad to oco' lands. He

THE average ratio of voters to popula-
ton in the fifty-nine largest cities in the
United States, as shown by the nsu
and election returns of 1880, was one
voter to STA inhabitants. Indianapolis
led all the rest by casting III vote for
every 1856 inhabitants, and the smallest
vote was in Providence, r. Lone for
every 11.30 Inhabitants. New Orleans
voted one to every $50. The only other
cities that cast less than II vote to sew
en- were st. Louis Zone to 1867, Rich
mond, Va, Lowell, Mass, Kansas City,
Mo-, Minneapolis, Mimi, Lawrence,
Mass, Utica, n. Y, and Atlanta, Ga:
Nineteen of the ifty-nine cities cast
more than one vote to five.

AT the request Of the Dominion gov
eminent a British war vessel has pro-
ceeded to the northern coast of British
Columbia, where some irritation exists
among the Indians owing to the arrest
Of one of their number for murder, and
the attempt of Bishop Ridley to remove
Rev. Mr.. Duncan, a missionary in
whom the natives gave implicit conf
dence. No serious trouble is considered
likely to occur.

GEN. ANDERSON, chief engineer Of
the Northern Pacific, makes a detailed
reply to Mr.. Wizards charge that he
was misled by too low estimates Of the
cost of the road by the engineering de-
partment. Gen. Anderson shows that
his estimates were substantially ecu
rate, and that the apparent under-esti-
mate arises from comparisons OF his
figures with totals containing items he
was not required to provide for. Tie
letter has a value as a contribution to
the history of the building Of the North
ern Pacific, though it lacks the dramatic
interest Of Wizards address.

have meyer been more surprised. There
is a little in the facts to have warranted
the last break in Northern Pacific stocks.
But there was the financial panic of1873
and the Jay Cooke failure, and they
said the Northern Pacific was a bubble.
We knew little then Of the country it
was to traverse, and heard much that
was discouraging. Then came Willard
and his epoch, and they said it was a
bubble again. People knew little about
it, and was ready to believe it was a
bubble. But it isn't anything of the
sort. Tt is a most substantially built

The returns received to-day indicate
the election of Governor Cleveland, his
plurality in New York state being
about 1000. The Albany Evening
Journal rep comedies this and there
is hardly room to doubt it. The RIVER
PRESS believes that this is an unfortu-
nate result for the country, but the re-
publicans can probably stand it as well
as their democratic neighbors.

You don't know the chances there
are at our end Of the Northern Pacific
said a gentleman from Victoria, B. g.,
ito engage in new lines of trade. The
trade in fish opens a field forany amount
of capital. Canned sturgeon, something
that [ have seen nowhere in the west,
can he bad in the greatest abundance,
and the margin for shipments to st.
Paul and Chicago is enough to make a
fortune for whoever engages IN it. Our
cod-the black rock, ton and link varie-
ties-would also make a business for a
large amount of capital. Halibut IS
now being sent eastward, but the trade
is not worked up as it could. The way
to do is to invest in boats, nets, ETC., and
set natives fishing on piece wages, all
fish to be inspected and sorted. The
Chinook dialect has been printed, you
know, by somebody in Boston, and it is
easy to hire those fellows to work. A
dollar a day is big in their eyes. They
are not poor. You couldn't bestoW a
charity among 10000 of them. And
they do like work, and the pay for it.
There is a peculiar business to be open
ed in the handling Of China goods
especially in tableware. The prices of
such goods there and here show a great
