Mineral Point tribune. (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1869-1938, 1885-07-02

MILWAUKEE Sentinel: The Spring
field Republican notes that the sixty
days given by the presidents proc
lamalion to the white settlers in the
Winnebago and Crow reservations
in Dakota expired last Wednesday,
but that the settlers show no signs
of obeying. 1t adds: "President
Cleveland is not a man to be tried
with. If the white people, now I'M
lawfully on the reservations, do not
go at once, troops win be sent to re
move them, even by force, if that is
necessary" In the wild West there
is different opinion. 1t is under
stood that the president will let his
proclamation stand, since it has a
fine look of reform, but that the
settlers will not be disturbed. The
proclamation was like the presidents
utterances in favor of civil-service
reform, for ostentation rather than
use.

THE texas cotton plant is greater
by far than ever before. Years ago
the late Zach Chandler counseled
the South to raise more corn and
cotton and less sheol. Texas is
taking his advice. Sheol, by the way,
is a shady substitute for hell.

NoBopY will deny that no admin

tacle Of i,selfin the matter of its
foreign appointments as the present
administration which has come in to
"reform" things. The recitation Of
the blunders Of experimentation
the appointment Of persons disquali-
fed by the constitution, down to
that Of persons such as Kelley and
Jonas whom theforeign governments
refuse to receives sufficient to
show the incapacity Of the head of
the state department and the inabil-

THERE is said to be bad blood
springing up between France and
England. Reports are to the effect
that France demands the Withdrawal
Of British troops from Egypt, and
De Lesseps predicts that war will
result. On the other hand, late
dispatches mention rumors Of prob
able alliance between Germany and
England. As soon rs Gladstone was
out of the way, Bismarck began to
warm up to Great Britain, and there
is the closest friendship between the
two empires. 1t will be recollected
that Queen Victoria's oldest child,
the daughter who preceded the
Prince Of Wales into the world, is
the wife of the German Grown
Prince, and will be Empress of Ger
many whenever William, now SIS
years old, shall pass away. Undoubt
eddy England is immensely stronger
in its foreign relations under Sails
bury than it was under Gladstone.

was buyer of May pork. This scared the
shorts AMI they made things lively for
awhile. The opening for May pork was
Sl2.7.., but stronger grain quotations forced
pork up to S13, although a decline of
sc was recorded at the close. Lard and short
ribs were Influenced by the same causes as
pork, each showing gain of &c at the close
Of the day. Tue pork trade shows an adj
vance OF Coo per barrel during the week, and
a feeling prevails that liberal realizing sales
are likely to follow a further advance which
viii result in decline from current prices.
Lighter receipts and better prices at the
yards are encouraging to the bears however,
and trading was quite brisk all day. AT the
stock yards the receipts of both cattle and
hogs were moderate.
THE CATTLE MARKET
was active with sligat advance on The best
heavy steers, such as were suitable for
dressed beef aud shipping trades. TIE hog
market was rather dul! and prices dropped
stro3g 10 cents per 100, the best assorted
fancy heavy making $4.90@5 against
IS. @5.l0 yesterday: and nearly all other
sorts sold at proportionate decline. Some
half dozen of the minor packing firms
withdrew their orders, and it was said one
or two VT re about to quit the market for
the season on account Of the short supply
and the advance in prices.
