Riverside.

Died-Iu Riverside township, August 22d,
the infant son Of Mr.. and Mrs. George D.
Singsby, aged about two menths.
For the first time since the settlement of
Riverside township, the angel Of death has
visited US by calling the youngest inhabitant.
The funeral sermon was very ably handled by
Rev. Thomas McElroy, at the residence Of the
parents, August %. There was large con-
gregaton in attendance considering the busy
season Of the year and other sickness in the
neighborhood.
The youngest child of Porter Kimball and
also Henry Palfrey's youngest, have been very
sick, but were better at last reports.
Ole leKnudtson, who lives near the same neigh
borhood, though just over in Griggs county,
lost little girl about two years old OH the 2Oth
of August.
This has been the most sickly season we have
yet experienced in this country, aud fears are
entertained that 1t will be still more sickly if
this very uncommon hot and dry weather lasts
much longer. This week the mercury has run
up to 1O2 and 104 in the shade and l22 in the
sun for two or three days, with high south
wind that seemed as though it We're blowing
through an oven, and it is terribly dry and
dusty. SYLvIE.

Counterfeit Buzzard Dollars.

A new counterfeit silver dollar was received
at the sub treasury at Chicago last week, COM
ing from the West Division Railway company.
It is well calculated to deceive any one but an
expert. It is only less in weight than the gen.
uine the weight Of silver 5-cent piece. 1t is
heavily plated with silver, has good color and
clear ring. This is the first one of the series
OF 1858 made from die yet seen, the 1879 and
1880 series having been discovered some time
ago. All arc supposed to come from tho same
parties, the work being exceptionally well
done, having the same alloy and bearing the
same general characteristics.

The Trail Comfy Ti,nas the Dannr editad I,v

The Trail County Times, the paper edited by
Col. Plummer when he is not engaged in 'sav-
ing Maine," brings him out as candidate for
the territorial council. 1t says he should be
sent to congress, as che stands like an intellect
ual giant among an army Of pigmies," but
"because he is poor, and the pins have been
set to run some one of wealth." the scheme is
not practicable, and the Times therefore pro-
poses that he be sent to the legislature. 1t is
just possible that the people of Trail county
may conclude that it would not be fair to ap-
propriate so much greatness to themselves
and therefore leave tho colonel at home

One Of our well-known farmers called at the
PIONEER Office yesterday morning to suggest
that the farmers who come to Hope to do busi-
ness each contribute one bushel of wheat to-
ward a fund for sinking a public we'll. He
very truthfuly remarked that at present there
is no place where farmer can water his team
without using private well. We think the
suggestion good one, and believe that our
merchants and business men would willingly
contribute to such fund. We suggest that
boxes be placed at each Of the elevators and
at every business house in which such contri-
buttons might be placed. A proper person
should be selected as custodian of the fund,
who would visit the boxes and take charge of
the money, and should the subscriptions justify
it, the people Of Hope might add sufficient
money to sink an artesan well. The recent
fire has demons trated that something of the
kind is needed. II sufficient money cannot be
got for an artesian well, we should at any rate
have an ordinary public we'll.

to the card Of Messrs. J. P. Brown & Son,
bankers, in another column. These gentlemen
are now prepared to conduct general bank
ing business, having fitted up the first floor of

the owner of several sections of land adjacent
to Hope, and the public may rest assured that
the Bank Of Hope will not prove one Of those
mushroom affairs that spring up in night and
then melt away as rapidly, leaving disaster and
ruin in their wake. The affairs Of the Bank of
Hope will be conducted with prudence and
economy, and in addition will have such finan-
cial banking as will insure success. The peo-

LONDON, January 22.-lf the Ma
tional League is proclaimed in Ireland,
the Central Executive of the organiza-
ton will be located in England.
The 50. James Gazette says it is
known there is resolute body Of men
behind the more peacesble members of
the Irish National League, who are de-
termined TO resort to violence unless
the demands OF the Parnellite party are
conceded by Parliament. 1t is also
known, says the Gazette, that even
among the Irish members OF the House
Of Commons there are several employees
of 0'Dopovan Rosa. The Government
is aware that miscreants have elaborate
plans to perform deeds of violence, and
that they have selected a particular part
Of England in which TO ply the knife
and pistol, discarding dynamite, which
the alleged plotters regard as blunder-
ing medium.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
A SKIRkISH IN CONGRESS.

ManGuTriug 10 Get a onsrum-The waYs
md Means COMMITTEE. and the Tariff Suma.
tra Tobacco.
From our regular Correspondence
WAsHIEGToN, d. c., January %.
The Boutelle resolution caused the tao
parties to lock horns in the House to-
to-day. BouteIle, Of Maine, and Brady,
Of Virginia, had prepared red-hot
speeches which they wanted TO deliver.
Mr.. Herbert, chairman Of the Naval
Committee, reported the resolution
with the amendment heretofore noted
in this correspondence, and immediate
ly called the previous question. This
occurred early in the day, and before
the Democrats had a quorum present,
so that the Republicans had the ad-
vantage and awaited themselves Of it.
There were several ron-calls. and call
ofthe House, which occupied nearly two
hours and q half, and served TO give
the Democrats time to bring in enough
absentees who were not paired to give
them quorum.
The Democratic position, as stated
by Herbert ano Hewitt, was that as
the resolution was one simply calling
for information from one of the ex-
ecutiye departments the discussion
ought not to take place until the in
formation is furnished.
A Democratic member Of the WAYS
and Means Committee said this morning
that the committee would not be ready
& report a tariff bill for at least a
Month or two. About one hundred
tariff bills have been sent TO the COM
mittee, and the committee desires to sift
them thoroughly. In due time a gen
eral tariff bill will be reported, and he
thinks il will be moderate in its chRrac-
ter.
The Committee on Ways and Means
has received from the Secretary of State
communication enclosing report from
Isaac Bell, Jr., Consul at The Hague,
containing the views of that Government
concerning determinations by the
United States tariff laws against i'm
portations Of Sumatra tobacco. The
Consul had been requested to inform
cur Government, that it might be ne
cessary for the Netherlands to retaliate
for determinations against Sumatra to-
bacco by imposing restrictions against
the importation Of Maryland tobacco
into the Netherlands unless the dis
ordinations complained of were re-
moved.
