STARVING INDIANS.
 CHICAGO, Sept. IA dispatch re- teived fiom Helena, Montana, says |: Governor Crosby states that spe- clal agent sent by him 10 inquire into the cond -tion of tue Piegan ln~ dians has just returned and found hat these Indians number about 2.000 and are dying from gradual starvation al the rate of one per day. The men and wG men arc gaunt and spiritless and the children are ema, ciated. All are so weakened by the lack of sufficient food for the past two years that dreadful suffering and death will occur shortly. The appropriation for this year only per mits the agent to issue two or three pounds of bad flour per week, which is entirely inadequate 10 the support of well people. The governor re- ports this unnatural and inhuman state of things, and calls upon the secretary of the interior 10 assume the responsibility of issuing full rations until congress meets in De- cember.

THE Democratic County Conven>
 ton which convened yesterday ap-
 pears to be proceeding with all the
 dellberatIon that such a momentous
 occasion demands. But tie fact is it is proceeding with great caution, ever tImidity, in order to harmOnize the contendlng factions within its borders. The Democratic party strikers of the county realize that they are not likely 10 have a walk over this fall, are not even likely to whip their independent think CTS
 into the traces, as has been the en- deavor Tn the past. The citizens of he couniy-the property holders
 who have acted with the Democrats
 ic parry in ihe past have come to understand that that party, within the ounty, has been acting in II inter ests of q few of the strikers and not
 in the interests of the county, not i D the interests of the people at large.
 Men are now beginning to see thai. if we would prosper, if we would have homes, have commercial facil
 iti s. have business in prosperous condition, have man uufactories, have an enterprising, productive, and
 wealthy county. they must work for public measures, the tendency of which will be to produce those re- suits. When party, any party, fails 10 do one single thing towards these
 results, fails 10 keep even in the cc unity finances but saddles the peoS
 pie. in the face of great increase of quantity and value of real estate and personal property in the county, with an enormous debt of $90,0OO, for which the county has not thing to show, It is high time for that party or at least that portion of the party which has been Instrumental in pro. ducing such disastrous condition of affai irs to be looked after.
 IL is time for the intelligent and enterprising members of each and every party to awake 10 the situation and each by it's varlous methods and peculiar modes of pros ceedure work toward the same end, and the sooner this condition of af> fairs prevails the sooner our taxes will be reduced from $3. 50 to S4.5O per $100 to a small nominal tax. ItI fairly makes a man s head swim to compare our rate of taxation with 1 those that prevail in some counties even in the Territory, and when we compare it with the rates in most of | of the counties of California and in 1 the western states where it often does not reach 50 cents on the $1OO. l We are aslounded. If rates could be cut down to S1.5O here, no one would have cause to Will the people of the county do anything for themselves his fall or will they continue to work for the party strikers9
