THE CHANCES SLIGHT
That the Sioux Bill Will be Passed
by This Congress.

the w NC 4 ssSScO
by This Congress.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON. July 9.-Hon. P. T. Nc
CIure, mayor of Pierre, started upon his
return journey Wednesday evening. He
comedies the temporary demise of the bill
for the opening of the Sioux reservation.
Only after hope had ceased to display one
single ray of light did he give up the ghost
himself. 1t has been long, disagreeable,
difficult and almost thankless labor which
Mr. Mcclure has performed. He has been
here continuously, working day and night,
since last November. His intercourse
with public men of both parties and
of all shades of opinion has been of
such a polished, sincere, manly, COM
mendable nature, that he has made friends
of all members of congress. Not one man
has taken exceptions TO anything he has
said or done. [ believe that it is not full
some praise, but simple truth, to say that
Mr.. Mcclure leaves the capital city with
more friends than any OTHER Dakotian who
has been here during this session. He says
that there is still ground for hope that the
reservation will be opened during the short
session next winter; but he is probably in
error in that matter. | can see no reason to
hope for such an ending of the meritoriouS
campaign. The people along the Missouri
river must remain under the ban for some
time to come yet. The reservation will
not be opened by this congress.

Front street, south of the QuartermasFers de-
partment, burned. The neighborng houses

in its new location, and Mr.. Phelps, the
former occupant of the room where it is To-
Gated, has moved into neat and tasteful
store building next door north. Postmaster

improvements in the building, and intends to
make more as soon as time will permit.

WASHINGTON, July 9.-Hon. c. c.
Frost, late of the Huron Free-Trade Dem
ocrat, is still here, presumably in the in
terest of Mr.. Brown of Huron, who is an
applicant for the Aberdeen land Office
MI. Frost viii remain until the close Of the
session of congress. He is busying his
facile pen with brilliant letters to several
Dakota papers. Through all of his writ
ingS and his conversation there runs q
strong vein of belief and expectancy
that Hon. Ezra W. Miller, re-
ceiver of the land Office at Huron, will be
the Democratic nominee for delegate to
congress. Mr.. Frost is highly incensed
with the action of the Democratic territorial
central committee in selecting Aberdeen
for the place of the Democratic convention,
and Sept. 20 as the date. He regards it as
an attempt to injure Mr. Day and his
friends. He considers it an effort upon
part OF the committee to boom Hon. G. S.
Engle for the delegateship. Mr.. Frost is
i'll earnest in his denunciation of what he
deems wrong, and is not always as parlia-
mentary in his choice of language upon the
subject as he is in his editorial utterances.

is solid for o. S. Clifford for denomination

added thereto, together with several coun-
ties almost assured in the North,

delegate remains here in Washington,
seemingly Indifferent to the result which is
of so much moment to him. To all advice
from his friends to leave Washington and
''attend to his political fences" Clifford
quietly assents, but still remains in Wash
ington. Few congressman have shown SO
much apparent indifference, yet Gifford's
Indifference is only apparent. He is GER

or, at any rate, to receive his party nomina-
ton. His friends fear, however, that he is
taking matters too easily, and that he Is be-
