Grants Character Analysed,
Gath, in Cincinnati Enquirer.

Gath, in Cincinnati Enquirer.
Grant had no legal education
notnlng but military experience
and when he left the army. after he
ing IN 1t for years, he naturally ran
down hill very fast. He had mar
rled into one Of those agreeable Ma
ryiand families which live well but
manage poorly, and whose capacity
Is bounded by some land and ne
groes. He had no biz friends co
push him in the army and there was
no lighting done after the Mexican
war, aud so he was sent from post
TO post in the far new domain we
had acquired from California to Or
egon, and things got worse instead
oI better and he slipped on to his
tather-ln-law's land too near the bip
city OF st. Louis. The fabric Of the
man, however, was there all the
time; he had homely, resolute quail
tiles and his habits were merely
the ennui Of man only half en-
ployed. He accepted hard fortune
without murmuring, and finally had
TO go back 10 his father, and be-
came clerk in his store. If the
big war had never come Grant
might have been dead long age.
But he had latent in him qualities
which only very great war could
develop harmoniously. He was per-
fectly docile while perfectly brave.
He represented the full spirit Of the
northern army in his acquiescence
with all commands; if Halleck sauc-
ed him he did not grow discouraged
or sauce back. He went and did
something which would be approv-
ed. To Lincoln he was a perfectly
harmonious spirit all the while. He
never criticised Mr.. Lincoln for
anything.
Grant was like q strong field
which could get strength from the
sun and the food, and even from
the manure. He despised nothing,
grew up with the events and the
higher the events grew the more
natural Grant seemed to stand to
ward them.

make your places look neatly, and
in this way, supply from your own
farms the means for that change of

to this bringing Of corn, oats, and
hay from other states.
Milo says: You need not do
that any more.
Remember, MILD grows, drouth

The improvement Of farm animals
is the most important duty which
dsvolves upon the farmer; and it
requires, to be successful, a high
order of intelligence and the exer-
else OF great judgment. The breed
ing animals should be selected with
discrimination and be suitably ma
ted to counteract certain defects, all
the time looking toward the pro-
duction of a youngster that will be
an improvement on the parent
stock. Especially should the male
be a typical animal; as, while he
may be the progenitor of many
young animals, the female will only
be of one or at least two, unless she
is a member of the swine family.
Although the females should be as
well bred as it lies within the pow
er Of the farmer to procure, it is
much easier and cheaper to intro
duce improved blood by the pur.
chase of high bred male. A good
male animal will improve a whole
herd. After all this, or rather
with this, must come the best o
care, including good breeding, goot

The National Stockman says
quite a fair percentage of the letters
of inquiry, as well as of the orders
for fowls and eggs, that we receive
come from the ladies. And why
not? There is nothing about the
care and management Of poultry
that a woman cannot attend to as
well as man. In fact a lady who
has taste in that direction usually
has more patience, and quicker in
sight into these matters, than q
man. If many of our farmers
wives only knew it, they cannot af-
ford to spend SO much IF their time
in the kitchen, when some one can
be employed to do the work there
for q sum much less than the prof
its of a fairly managed poultry
yard would amount to-not to men
tion the renewed health and vigor
that this SSWork would surely bring.

The First Thousand Dollars.

1t looks like our folks never will
get rich. Somehow or other they
can't make the first 81 900. If they
make it they can't save it. An Ir-
ishman was asked how he managed
to get so rich and he said he never
bought anything that he was not
obliged to have, but our people re-
verse the rule and buy most every
thing they are not obliged to have.
That is the way we do at our homes
and most everybody else that l
know of. We have got rich folk s
with a poor mans purse, and so we
live on a strain. 1t is a curious
Circumstance in this life, that the
folks who would be charitable with
their money haven't got any surplus
to give away. Their very habits of
free living and generosity prevent
them from accumulation.
There are 500 rich men up north
to one down here. They begin
early to save and econemize. They
take care of the Titles and before
long they have the first thousand
clear and then they are safe. Our
folks begin early to keep up with
society and the fashions and never
get the thousand that IS the mud
sill, the foundation Of wealth.-Nye.

A Fine Distinction Between them and
Wlnnebago Lands.
Chamberlain correspondence, Sioux
City Journal: On the 29th of April,
1868, treaty was made between the
government and tie Sioux in Dakota,
and the only color of title that can be
claimed for the Wlnnebagoes is found
in that treaty, article 1. After describ-
ing what lands the Indians shall have
and occupy, the article concludes with
the following language: "And in addi-
tion thereto all existing reservation on
the eeast bank of said river" (MissourD.
When President Grant issued the or

land from the market, including Charles
Mix, Brule and Buffalo counties. and the
land thus taken out of the market con.
tinued as reserve until August 9Th,
1878, when President Hayes threw on
the market Charles Mix, north of the
For: Randall military reservation, and
Brule north to American creek, and that
portion Grant had thrown out of the
market north of the Winnebago reserva-
tion have described, leaving only the
part opened by President Arthur. At.
torney General Garland claims that the
"old Winnebago and Grow Greek reserva-
tions resemble and answer to the de-
scriptioR of existing reservations on the
east bank of the river at the time the
treaty (1S6S) was made" Then if there
nothing but the old Winnebago could
have been intended by the treaty of that
year, for the Grow Creek lands never had
the least semblance of reservation un-
til Grants order Of January 11th, 1875,
seven years after the treaty of 1868.
Then, the Grow Creek lands not being q
reservation, is the order of President
Arthur imperative in toto, or inopera-
tive SO far as it opened the old Winne-
bago reservation? Garland refers in his
opinion to the treaty with the Wahpe-
tons on February 10Th, 1867, as covering
the Grow Creek lands on that date.
This land was not occupied by the Wah-
petons, who. on the contrary, were then
on the Winnebsgo reservation.
and no pretensions are made by
the president or his cabinet that
the Grow Greek lands were Indian lands
prior to Grants order of January llth,
1875, eight years after the treaty with
the Wahpetons. If the conclusions We
reach are true.and the old dWlnnebago was
the only reservation on the east bank of
the Missouri at the time of the Sioux
treaty of 1868, the treaty could only COW

lands, and Arthur's order opening these
lands is good to all lands outside of the

the latter as it existed at the time OF the
treaty of 1868. The settlers in the old
Winnebago reserve may have to go, but
the facts seem to be that those on the
Grow Greek can legally remain. During
the time that intervened between April
%, 1868, and the time of Grants order
January II, 1875, the lands about which
there is now question we're surveyed
