cination to fall asleep on all occasions,
and extreme fondness for the ardent
comprise the main features Of his char.
acter, was acceptably rendered, and his
natural expression Of the Virginia
darkey's provincialisms, in connection
with his indescribably ridiculous make
up, would excite a modern Saint to
risible convulsions.
S. r. Shankland, as Holmes, an Irish
soldier in Capt. Blunt's company, would
have won laurels if he had provided for
himself short clay pipe, but in the
hustle and hurry incident to the preli-
minary arrangements preparatory to
going on the stage, and the weight of
| embarrassment all modest men feel
upon such occasions this important ad-
junct was completely lost sight of, and
unfortunately overlooked.
T. l. Wheeler, in his diversified role
of first soldier in Capt. Bunt's company
sustained the character with marked
ability. Tom would acquit himself with
credit in any role that might be assigned
him.
James Wier and James Clark as
prominent guerillas under Capt. Simon
Muggins, were veritable bush whackers
in appearance, and their acting was in
close accord Herewith, rejecting a fair
representation Of real characters in
guerilla warfare.
Miss Ora Feay, in the character of
Violet, an eight-year old daughter Of
Capt. Blunt, appeared to good advant-
age, and rendered her juvenile role in a
very creditable manner.
Mr.. +. J. V. Rutkowski, stage man
ager, under whose instruction the anna
tuers reached such marked degree Of
proficiency, deserves much credit for
his persevering energy in this direction,
and we feel assured that his efforts are
duly appreciated, and that his kind

The music on this occasi on was kindly
donated by Mrs. Bessie Burton and Mr..
Chas. Lincoln, which was pleasingly
rendered and well received.
The bayonet drill by Mr.. Rutkowski,
the manager, was given with fine effect,
the varied evolutions being executed
with such surprising rapidity as to ex-
cite the wonder and astonishment of the
entire audience.

B. & M. R. r. Pushing for the Hills.

We learn through private sources that
it is the intention of the B. & NJ. K. X
Co. to extend their line of road north
and west from the present terminus
through the southern portion Of the
Hills into Wyoming. This company
are pushing their grade rapidly, having
nearly two thousand men at work at
this time. Contracts have been recently
let to point % or 80 miles south OF
Chadron. A representative of that com
pany was recently at Buffalo Gap
gathering information touching upon
the prospective resources Of the south
ern Hills, and will visit Custer City in a
few days with the same purpose in view
This looks ominous, and angurs the
early railroad connection of Custer City
with the east and west. We have the
highest degree Of confidence in the
matter of this compay making Custer
City point on their line, her location
being extremely favorable in point OF
accessibility, in connection with the vast
mineral resources by which she is sur
rounded, offer paramount inducements
which are never overlooked in such a
connection. That our tin discoveries
are giving us prominence abroad is a
fact which is clearly apparent, and that
we are acquiring notoriety from this
source more rapidly than the people of
this community at present realize, we
do verify believe, and we do not enter
tain doubt of the fact of the discov-
cry of tin In the southern Hills
being very prominent factor in in
fiuencing the above named company to
extend their road in this direction. We
will be enabled to give our readers
further and more definite information
on this subject in a few weeks.

REPORT OF THE GRAND JURY.

REPORT OF THE GRAND JURY.
We, the Grand Jurors of the county
of Custer, duly and legally empanlled,
beg leave to submit to your honor the
following report:
We find that the county treasurer has
issued thirty-three receipts for liquor
license since December 7th, 1885.
We also find that the county commits
sioners have granted only ten licenses
to sell Intoxicating liquors since the
above date, leaving twenty-three re-
ceipts for money, issued by the county
treasurer to obtain license for a period
of time that has not been covered by
any license that has issued to the per-
sons holding said receipts.
We also find that some persons have
paid the county treasurer money for
license to sell Intoxicating liquors, fer
which he has given his receipt, covering
a period of time over six months, and
no license has ever been granted or is
sued to them.
We would respectfully recommend
that the law requiring persons to procure
license before they can sell intoxicating
liquors be published in the several
county papers. Also that the county
treasurer be instructed TO inform par
ties paying him money for license that
his receipt will not exempt them from
prosecution.

Foreman of the Grand Jury.

Referring to the Springer bill for the
division of Dakota on the line of the
Missouri river, the st. Paul Globe Of the
9th inst. says:
"The chief objection raised in the
Black Hills to the Springer bill dividing
on the Missouri river is that Bismarck
would be an inconyenient point for the
capital. In reply to that j. is said that
the Hills region would eventually 60
with Wyoming, which has similar in
terest, and the Bismarck region west of
the river mainly form new territory
but careful observers do not see that that
scheme to divide on the Mis- ouri is
gaining strength enough to make it q
serious factor in the problem to be
solved. Admission as whole is thought
the simpler and easier method and one
that would certainly receive the ap-
proval Of the mass Of the voters"

Work has lately been resumed al
many points on the grade line between
Spring creek and this place, and is being
prosecuted in a manner that bids fair to

connection with the fact that Mr.. n
Desperois, the gentleman having the
contract for putting in the bridges along
the line, came up by coach as far as

Morris tribune., 1886-07-28

The insincere and self-stultifying
position occupied by the pretending
G. A. Gilman toward the farmers al
lance, is apparent when it is known
that his candidacy for governor is
aided and abetted by J.J. Hill and
other railroad magnates. There has
no greater confidence game ever been
attempted in Minnesota politics than
his effort to draw support from the
farming community-ab branch of our
industrial populace that he has no
kind of fealty for. In plain parlance {,
his candidacy is held up and forced for
ward by some of the most arrant rail-
road monopolies in the state. Ac1
what for? Does 1t stand to reason
that Jim Hill or The Manitoba rail-
road company would be SO very
soEcitous for Gilman if lis not well
understood that he is and will con-
tinue to be subservient tool to the
interests of monopolies in Minnesota
Under the new law, the governor has
the appointment of the Railroad Com
missioners, and with Gilman in the
executive chair to carry out the be-
hests of these corporations, instead Of
being benefit to the producing as
well as shipping interests, men would
be appointed on the commission who
would render the law o dead letter
and farce. Will the farmers Of
Minnesota be "hoodoed" into support
ing for governor man of this kind,
or will they protect themselves by
refusing to give his candidacy support
and encouragement? Mr.. Gilman
will learn before the canvass is closed
that the farmer is not the "chump"
he had figured. d.-Mankato Free Press.

Glencoe Register: He (Cleveland)
signed the bill giving Mrs. Grant a
yearly pension of $1,000 with the
servile alacrity of a toady. Had he
the courage of his pretended eonvic-
tions he would have vetoed that bill;
but the widow of the great soldier was
too high to he struck even by the
man in whose biography the great
rebellion left no trace. His hypocrit-
ical economy finds its object in the
pittance Of some veteran private, or
pauper widow or children. His veto
of the bill appropriating money for a
public building at Duluth is another
illustration of his capacity for know
ing nothing. He evidently supposes
that city which, next to Chicago
and Odessa, is the greatest primary
wheat market of the world, is mere
village. We observe that he has not
dis-approved the bills for the erection
of public buildings in the late con-
fedsracy, except in the case of Ashe-
vile, and to do this he was doubt
less reluctantly moved by the
criticisms which followed his actions
upon the bill for Duluth. American
vessals are seized with impunity and
the act Is met only by cringing re-
monstrance. This outrage would never
have been thought of had Mr.. Blaine
not met Mr.. Burchard.
