Agency-The Transactions Of n Social
~Ciub-IEusic and Literary Exercises.
To thu Press and Dakotaaan.
Thinking a short description of
aocial life at Yankton agency might be
interesting to your numerous readers I
venture to portray some of the pleas
ures of the past winter partially shared
by your correspondent.
A social club or literary association,
was organized at the suggestion of Mrs
Joe w. Cook and Mrs. Jno. P. William
son, both OF whom are held in high
esteem by all who are fortunate enough
to have made their acquAint-
ance. These ladies were aided by q
corps of young ladies, teachers and assis-
tants IN the government and the two
mission schools, and 1t would be difficult
to find a more energetic, intelligent or
refined class anywhere, hardly to be
looked for on an Indian reservation, Sc
cluded as they are from outside inter-
course and surrounded by Indians of al
most every class, from the we'll educsted
and fully civilized down to those who
may yet be classed as the truly wild In
| dian.
But to return to our club, which was
duly lnaugurated early in November
last, under the auspices of the above
mentioned ladies, at the parsonage of
the Episcopal church, and was breveted
the Yapkton agency social and literary
association. Meetings were to be held
every fortnight, the host or hostess OF
the house where they were held was to
be presiding officer for that evening,
with a permanent secretary.
70 say that it was a success would be
inadequate praise; each successive meet
ing increasing in interest, the pro-
grammes resulting in addresses, read.

operation which resulted in the battle OF
Gettysburg upon ground selected by
REYNOLDS. During the afternoon the con-
situations were ended and. with the aid

the change OF command. In the even

TnE Courisr-JoUraoi puts an apt rea-
soning as follows: "a pound Of silver
bullion will buy 36la per cent. more
wheat OF given grade in India than in
the United States. Silver is bought with
gold or Bank OF England gold notes, at
the same 30l. per cent. discount that
prevails in the United States II silver
bullion were at par, we may say that a
given sum OF gold or bank notes would
buy 100 pounds OF bullion, but as it is
9Oi, per cent. below the coinage par,
that same sum OF gold OF bank-notes will
buy 145 pounds; so that the dealer, by
simply converting his money into silver
bullion, can buy quantity OF wheat in
India represented by l45 instead Of 100.
1t is thus that the silver discount gives
India the irresistible power to fix mini
mum prices ior American wheat, con
cerning which our English cousins ir
the grain trade are so jubilant."

SILVER DOLLARS.

\ paper published in the interests OF
bi-metalism, at Cleveland, and known as
the Silcer Doliar, publishes the following
pertinent points on silver "7he t~o
hundrcd and forty millions qt si'rer doi-
lars that hare bcen COINED and PIT in cir
cuiatioD since 1873, ore all that is nor
Saring the nation from general fndnc'ot
crasb We are tided over the breakers
simply by silver Does any one doubt
it? Let him answer the question then:
What would be the condition of business
to-day, ii the circulating medium were
suddenly contracted, by the loss or de-
struction of $240,000, 900? The labor
strikes we now have, are as summer
zephyr to cyclone, to the condition OF
things that would then rule. Silrer is
indced biessing, and the inconsiderate
business men OF this country, who would
strike it down know not what they would
do; but the conspirators know well what
they are about.
The greenbacks are fixed quantity at
$346, 100000. The national bank circu-
lation is being contracted at the rate OF
81 900 900 per month, or $24 100000 per
year, and ii it were not for the silver dol
lars that are being coined and put into
the circulating medium, there would soon
be great stringency in the money market
and in year Il panic.
We have about 1927 per capita in gold,
silver, greenbacks, national bank notes
and gold and silver certificates-while
France has double this amount, or $54
per capita We are now short in our
circulating medium hundreds OF millions
OF dollars of the amount of money re-
quired to carry on the business OF this
country properly. Our population is in
creasng ut the rate OF four per cent per
year, or doubling every twenty-five years ;
this increase OF population alone demands
an increase in our money volume OF at
least $4,000, 900 year But our trade
and commerce are also growing,
demanding still further increase in the
money volume OF the country and
this demand for more money is not only
being met, but we have a lot OF conspira
tors who are in league with England, Ell
deavoring to assassinate the prosperity OF
this nation by striking down the silver
dollar. The indifference with which
many business men look upon this silver
question, reminds one OF Nero's iiddlint
while Rome was burning. 1t is not a few
silver kings who are fighting for the sill
yer dollar; far from it; it is the thought
ful men everywhere throughout this ma
ton. England may jingle her guineas il
the face OF poor starved nations lik,
Egypt and Turkey, which she virtual,
owns, but America has her own treasure
vaults with which to buy and sell tn
world"

THREE GRAVES.

How did he live, this dead man here,
With the temple above his gravep
He lived as a great one; from cradle to bier
He was nursed in luxury, trained in pride,
When the wish was born it was gratitied;
With thanks he took, without heed he gave;
The common man was to him clod
From whom he was far as demigod.
His duties2 To see that his rents were paid.
His duties2 10 know that the crowd obeyed.
His pulse, if you felt it, throbbed apart,
With a separate stroke from the peoples 5
heart.
But whom did he love, and whom did he
bless?
Was the life of him more than mans, or
| know not He died. There was none to
blame,
And as few to weep; but these marbles came
For the temple that rose to preserve his
name.
How did he live, that other dead man,
From the graves apart and alone?
As great one, too? Yes this was one
Who lived to labor and study and plan.
The earths deep thought he loved to reve al;
He banded the breast of the land with steel;
The thread of his toll he never broke;
He filled the cities with wheels and smoke,
And workers by day and workers by night,
For the day was too short for his vigor's
flight
Too firm was he to be feeling and giving;
For labor, for gain, was life worth living
He worshipped industry. dreamt for her,
sighed for her,
Potent he grew for her, famous he died fol
her.
They say he improved the world in his time
That his mills and mines were a work sub
lime,
When he died-the laborers rested and
sighed:
Which was it-because he had lived, OF
died?
And how did he live, that dead man there,
In the country churchyard laid?
Oh. he? He came from the sweet field air
He was tired of the town and he took no
pride
In its fashion of fame. He returned and
died
In the place he loved where Il child he
With those who have knelt by his grave ant
prayed.
| He ruled no serfs and he knew no pride;
He was one with the workers side by side;
He hated a mill, and a mine, and a town,
With their fever of misery, struggle, re
nown;
He could never believe that man was mad
For a nobler end than the glory of trade.
For the youth he mourned with an endles
pity
Who were cast like snow on the streets o
the city,
He was weak, maybe; but he lost no friend
Who loved him once, loved on to the end.
He mourned all selfish and shrewd endeavol
But he never injured II weak one-never.
When censure was passed, he was kindl
dumb;
He was never so wise but fault would cOmt
He was never so old that he failed to enjo
The games and creams he had loved when
boy.
He erred, and was sorry; but never drew
A trusting heart from the pure and true.
When friends look back from the years to bt
God grant they may say such things of mt

intentions. Mr. George is just now blinded
by the popularity he has won to his side,
but the people OF New York-a large
majority OF whom are working men
will take a second thought over the mat
ter, and then realizing how foolish it
would be to revolutionize the govern
ment OF the city, when nothing OF tangi-
BILE good is promised in return, they will
go back to their former allegiance, and
give Socialism cold shoulder.
