The People won the fight and took many
scalps. 1t is believed that both tribes
are Of common origin. If any outsider

nominees should be killed during the
campaign, which will be carried on with

claims to be a resident of the great agri-
cultural state OF Philadelphia. On the
Democratic ticket is DR.. Thurman, a dis.

The latter half of last week was q
lively one in Shenandoah, Iowa. Thurs
day night q mob of masked men battered
down the door of the Jail. overpowcrcd
the officers and took from his cell a
brute who vas awaiting trial for as
sauiting a six-year-old girl of a promi-
ncnt citizen, and tarred and feathered
him. He fell senseless to the ground, in
which condition he WAS found by the
sheriff. whose appearance with a posse
put the moi to fight. The man was
carried back to Jail and physicians nm
moned. While they were engaged in
removing the tar the Jail was again sur
rounded. The sheriff surrendered the
man without a struggle. The mob
dragged him from the Jail to the street.
His hands and feet were tied to a lamp
post and the lash applied until the blood
came. When the mob got tired of
whipping the prisoner. they threw q
rope around his neck, dragged him to a
telegraph pole and hauled him into the
air several times. He was then half
dead, and upon his promise to leave
town was released. No effort has been
made to find out who composed the mob.
Saturday night a desperate by the name
of Gallup killed three men while his
capture was being effected for beating
his father. His house was surrounded
by a crowd of citizens and the militia
company and he opened fire upon the
crowd with two revolYers, killing three
prominent citizens. The desperate was
killed by the Infatuated people and his
naked body dragged through the streets
at the end of a rope to tho city hall,
where it lay on the floor for hours.

There does not seem to be any possi-
Bile chance for the success of the com
mission now laboring with the Indians
for the release of II, 900, 900 acres OF the
Sioux reservation. AS stated last week,
the commission left the Standing Rock
agency without obtaining a single sig
nature. That they will meet with any
greater success at the other agencies is
very doubtful. The undertaking at the
best was a formidable one. at Stand
ing Rock there are on the rolls 4, $50. d.
vlded into five bands. of whom 500 can
read and 175 speak English. At Chcy-
enne river there are credited 1000 Sioux,
divided into five bands; of these $50 can
read, but only $50 can speak English
enough to make themselves understood.
At Pine Ridge there are &, 1000 Sioux, d.
vided into three bands, the strongest of
which is headed by Red Cloud and a
group of bad men, utterly opposed to
the proposed reduction Of the rescrva
ton. This band contains 4, 900 Indians.
But 400 of the whole number accrcd-
tied 10 the agency can read and less than
450 speak English. At Rosebud there
are $500 Sioux divided into six bands.
1T5 of whom can read and ITO speak
English. AT Crow Creek and Lower
Brule agency there arc 1880 Sioux d.
vided into two bands, of whom 4S0 can
read and, about 800 speak the English
language. There are about twenty diff
ferent bands with which the counts
sion must negotiate in order to satisfy
the vanity and overcome the hostility of
chiefs and head men. and satisfy the
terms of the treaty. The shrcwdest and
brainicst of all the Western Indians;
they will make no bargain at a disad-
vantage to themselves, and many OF
them will demand more than the COM
mission can in any way be authorized to
give. When it is considered that about
1900 signatures are needed it is seen
in the light of the success thus far met
how difficult the labor is-and lmprob-
able Of ultimate success.

During General Shcridan's illness an
old lady residing in Virginia went into
her orchard every evening, and turning
her face toward the north, prayed fer
yently for the little hero. 1t seems that
her son. a Confederate soldier, was the
recipient of some act of Kindness at the
generals hands while a prisoner within
the Federal lines. The boy was badly
wounded, but lived long enough to tell
his mother, who had come to him, how
humanity he had been treated. and this
the old lady has never forgotten.
