asked Judge BasLln, of Utah, what
was to be the future of the Mormons. He
replied: Il believe that the MormOns will
have Joe Smiths son as the head OF their
church within five years, and that they
will accept his doctrine. This man is now
in Illinois, and he teaches MUrmOnism rs
it was taught by his father before pOlyg-
amy and temporal government by the
church was mixed up with it. The Nor
mons of Utah are being converted to this
doctrine, and if the government continues
to legislate against polygamy, Think they
will adopt it. The only thing that keeps
the Mormon church together now in 4
political way is the desire TO uphold polyg-
amy This being taken away the manage
ment of temporal affairs will pass out Of
the hands of the church and it will be-

take its rank among the western states as
one of the most fertile and wealthy among

Dakota Huronite: The Hurunite has
no taste for idleness when large public
interests are at stake. 1t believes that
Dakota ought to be divided on or near
the 10Th parallel, and that the two states
ought to be admitted to representation
in the American congress as soon as the
people of each section desire it. Our
plan of accomplishing this has been OBJ
posed by the Pierre Free Press, Sioux
Fsils Press, Mitchell Republican, Water
town Courier and perhaps others. That
opposition we admit has been successful.
Now we want to know their plan for
accomplishing the same object. Moth
ing can be done without some we'll de-
fined rian. Little can be done without
practical iunanimity in pursuing one
plan. The old ministry" has resigned
Now let the new make quick and clear
announcement of its policy SO that We
may at once know how far we can 90

and study to adjust our limited means tc

our power. Speak out loud and cleal
brethren, and at once. The Huronite

sulking tent, when the differences are
merely those of honest method in carry
| ing forward . good work.

A Legend by one OF the Patriarclis of

Work.
Huron Huronite: The cyclone is
new conner. twenty-five years ago
it was not known as traveller
in North America. 1t may have
been abroad in the land, but at that day
telegraphic communication was 80
limited that meteorological phenomena
were seldom mentioned.
The first cyclone that is known to
have been seen IN what is south Dakota
was in June, i670-sixteen years ago.
j. o. Bates, now Of the surveyor gen.
eral's Office In Huron, was one of the
few people then in Dakota, and from
him we obtained the following account
of 1T:
II was then living in Yankton," said
MIR. Bates. "None of us had ever seen
cyclone, nor heard of one. Even the
Indians and Frenchmen were strangers
to it. The appearance of it was exactly
like those that ore seen now--it looked
like balloon with sweeping point to
it. Whenever that point struck it dealt
destruction to everything.
1.-The monster came down from the
north, on the east side of the Missouri
river, and struck Emanuel creek, which
empties into the Missouri two and O hall
miles above Springfield. In Its course ii
sucked the water out OF sloughs. lakes
and Titles streams, even taking up all
there was in the Emanuel and causing il
to be as dry for time as the Jordan was
when the children Of Israel passed owe,
it. Near the mouth OF this creek the
cloud crossed the Missouri river and
struck the Santee agency and bnrsted
The volume of water .%sLa;;ch il took UP
on the east side of the river was dropped
ht re, and not only flooded the entire
agency grounds, but it completely
wrecked the large Episcopal church
which that society and the government
had built there, and demolished the
agency buildings.
"a large number of the Santee Sioux
Indians had lately been moved there
from Minnesota. After passing through
this awful storm they said the Greal
Spirit was angry with them for moving
to the Santee agency, and they woult
not remain there. Accordingly, all who
could get away left and went up te
Flandrau and Settled on government
land"
They and their descendants still live
in Moody county. They have become
christianized; have schools, churches
preachers; are quiet. orderly, industrious
and contribute great deal more fol
missions than the same number oil
whites. Perhaps that first cyclone II
Dakota was blessing to many who
were affected by it.

That Yankton must enjoy cheap and
uninterrupted facilities with its Me-
braska neighbors is no longer a debat-
able question. 1t is yehemently con-
ceded by every person engaged in the
commercial transactions in Yankton.
This being the unanimous conclusion,
there should be put into operation some
plan for establishing connection with
the Nebraska side which will meet the
requirements of the existing emergency.
Harmony of action is the first requisite
and all real or imaginary grievances
should be dispensed with.

Sufficient length of time has elapsed
since the new artesian well began to
gush it's fifty thousand barrels of water
per day for public sentiment to crystal
lie relative to municipal! Investments
which must occur if this aqueous gift of
nature is utilized and all the inhabi-
tants of our city afforded share in the
benefits which come from an abundan Sc
of water. The conclusion arrived at is
that the people of Yankton are praeti-
cally unanimoiis in behalf of an exten.
sion OF the water system and the inaug-
uration ofia system of sewerage. It is
the expressed belief that the pure water
which flows from the summit of artesian
hill should in time be made available to
every family in Yankton and that inn
provements with this object in view
should be instituted without delay. This
is the sentiment, as correctly as it can
be arrived ct from interviews with the
representatives of Ysnkson's interests,
| who are prudent, conservative class.
1t is necessary to first provide for an ex.
tension OF the street mains leading
from the water works and it is probable
that double the mileage now in use
would be necessary to accomplish salts
factory service. As beginning oEthe
sewerage system 1t is thought that
Third street should first be supplied
with drain pipe and the system after
wards extended as rapidly as financis
conditions viii permit. With these i'm
provements accomplished Yankton';
water works would not onl,
be placed upon paying basis, bu
/. would afford constantly increasing
