of Dickinson county, published by the
Kansas Directory Publishing Company,
of Salina, Kansas, and do not hesitate
to recommend it to our people as a
meritoriOus work. 1t has an alphabet
cal list of the voters of the county with
their post-office address, also short
descriptive history of Dickinson county
and business directory of Abilene,

In the Abilene Gazette. of last Satur-
day. that paper, under an article headed
''Stolen Pork, charged David Rogers
with stealing 400 lbs. of pork from ]. B
Preston, and said, Rogers has been
continually picking his teeth in man
ner that he was taking meat with his
usual diet of corn meal" We believe
Mr.. Rogers to be hard working indus
trious man and if force of circumstances
forced his family to live on cornbread
instead of wheat his case would deserve
sympathy, not ridicule. The case was
tried Tuesday morning and Mr.. Rogers
honorably acquitted. The meat found
in his cellar was purchased from
one of cur stockmen, bought with
money earned by him at honest labor.
The same article said he was placed in
Jail, it is not true, friends went on his
bond for his appearance at court. The
Gazette should make due apology to Mr.
Rogers and no doubt will.

A Montreal special says: Crowfoot, the
celebrated Blackfeet chief, has been tell
ing to government agent how Riel urged
him to join in general Indian war. He
asserts that Riel visited him in Montana
in 1880, saying that he intended to unite
the Metis, Crees and Blackfect and the
American Sioux under Sitting Bull on the
border. At that time Sitting Bull was in
bad odor in the United States, owing to
the Custer massacre. An interpreter who
was with Crowfoot during the interview
with Riel corroborates the story told by
the Blackfeet chief, and adds that Ricl
told them he was backed by influential
persons in Eastern Canada. Crowfoot
complains that the grass on his reserve at
Blackfoot Crossing has been destroyed for
two years IN succession by fire from sparks
from the Canadian Pacific locomotives,
and that his claim for compensation has
not yet been settled at Ottawa. Otherwise
he processes to be satisfied with his treat
