The cotton crop was good and the price

Census returns from fifty of the sew
enty-nine counties of the State of Min
nesota show population of $685., as
compared with Az, 665 according to the
United States census of 1880. This in
dicates an average increase of over &c
per cent, and would indicate a total OF
more than million residents in the
state, reckoning on basis of $50, 773
in 1880. It is naturally impossible,
however to make more than a rough
guess at the final figures, particularly
as the returns from both Ramsey and
Hennepin counties are among those
lacking. Its known that the increase
crease in these counties has been enor-
nous during the past five years, and it
is not at all improbable that the total
figures for tie state will considerably
exceed million. The returns present

Gen. Sheridan:s report to the presi-
dent On the results of his recent inyesti-
cations into troubles in the Indian
Territory is made public this evening.
He says he first sent for Agent Dyer,
who said that the Arapahoes were well
disposed, but were under the influence
of the Cheyennes, and would be oblig-
ed to furnish contingent of braves in
case OF hostilities, that the Cheyennes
were peaceful except the 1900 repre-
sented by Chief Stone Calf, who were
ugly; that progress toward civilization
was being made to certain extent: the
proximity of the cattlemen was irritat-
ing. but that the only way to settle the
trouble was to disarm the Indians and
awe them into submission by display
Of smilitary force. Gen. Sheridan next
interviewed Stone Cali, who represented
the disatfected Indians. The burden of
their complaint was the leasing OF their
LANDS. They said that when the leases
were made their opposition was man
ifested. whenever consulted or orpor-
tunity offered, in the strongest terms.
They had refused to sign the leases and
had never accepted any Of the lease
money. Pressure had been brought to
bear GA them. but they had resisted.
and thus there had sprung ups division
in the uiles between those who favored
and those who opposed the leases.
Instead OF trying to conciliate them.
the agent became more rigorous. and
endeavored to set then down on re-
stricted pieces OF land, threatening
them with the military if they refused
obedience. They saw, in the course
of the agent, their concentration to, 3
few acres OF land, and the balance OF
their reservation practically transferred
to the eattlemen for long period OF
years. il not permanently. Gen. Sheri-
dan next interviewed number of those
who had signed the lease. and gathered
that while they had agreed to the lease
they had become sick Of the bargain.
It was apparent that the signing had
been done in an individual capacity and
| by the encouragement or forcIble per-
suasion Of former agent j. O. Miles,
his employees and number of interest
ed individuals who lived lawfully and
unlaWfully around the agency.
