DAKOTA, FRIDAY, JANUARY 6, 1883.

Indignation meeting and for surround
ing towns to send resolutions Of con-
dolence and sympathy to our bereaved
neighbor. A ring Of disappointment
and melancholy is detected in the
following from the last issue of the
Chronicle: "The severity of the weather
during the past week has had a tenden-
cy to materially retard the progress of
the survey; only about four miles
having been surveyed, which brings
them to point about five miles west
of this city. Barring an unexpected
detour, the survey will enter our limits
at the west end Of town, which we pre-
sumo will be satisfactory to all, as the
east end will be reserved for the Elk
horn, which will doubtless tap us from
that direction before the close of the
coming year. The Cheyenne & North
crn is said to be turning their weather
eye in this direction, which excites but
little interest, as Custer people are far
from selfish, realizing that enough is
as good as feast"

BRADLEY FLAT.
DECEMBER 31s

DECEMBER 31st, 1887.
This, the last day of the old year, is
bound to leave lasting impression
upon the minds of the people of this
community as being one of the coldest.
Even Dodge's Peak, that grim and
silent sentinel who has stood watch and
ward over this valley for countless ages
perhaps looks ieily cold today and one
can imagine as he watches the clouds
roll down from its lofty crest that he
frowns omniously on the attempts of
man to wrench this valley from the
grasp of solitude and make it the
abode of civilization. Everything looks
bleak. and cold, and checrless. Stock
of all kinds stands shivering around
waiting for their rations of food, and
hay is fast disappearing. Almost
everyone has plenty of hay to carry
them through, although there is now
and then one that depends solely upon
providence. The man that depends
on providence generally gets left.
Providence does not fire away blank
cartridges and she never helps anyone
that does not help himself. Every
year brings climatic changes and every
one should be prepared.
In conversation with an old timer
who has spent ten years in the Hills
he expresses surprise at the changes
that have taken place during that
perio !. OF course to look ahead ten
years seems almost an eternity. yet rs
my friend aptly expresses it. 1t is
remarkable what a short space of tine
ten years time seems to be. Eight

work. Speaking of dead Indians,
shall never forget the fight at Sand
Creek about ten o'clock on the day Of
the battle. We had travelled all the
night previous with the North star for
our Guide, and coming upon their camp
about day break tired hungry and out
of humor, is it any wonder that we
made short and effective work Of it.
Our first vancouver was to surround
this camp which we nearly succeeded
in doing before the Indians were aware
Of our presence. Then commenced
the bitter and destructive warfare
known only to border men. 1t was
give and take with no quarters asked
or granted on either side. BY ten
o'clock the whole band was slaughtered
except thirty or forty who escaped
with Black Kettle, one of their chiefs.
We took no prisoners. Eastern phil
anthropists may shudder at the idea
of slaughtering women and children
but there was no help for it. They
were there supporting a war party to
exterminatc the whites and with their
lives they paid the penalty. 1t does
not seem to me proper that this govern
ment should keep the Indians in tribal
organizations and thereby give them
such grand opportunities to breed
mischief and deviltry. Why not start
them out in the world the same as the
white race has always had to do. Give
them their allotment and say to them

your brow or by your cast iron cheek
If yon are built that way. But I
think / hear some one say that will
never do; they are such poor ignorant
savages. I wish to say right here that
what an Indian don't know is not worth
knowing. They are not ignorant but
they are savages and savages they will
remain so as long as the government
treats them as it does. 1t pays them
to be that way. It is the ultima thule
of all their desires.

To The Voter.

Our country is now in the whirl-
pool of politics, and the main ques-
tions for discussion in the workshop
on the street. and even in the family
circle. is the attitude of the two
principal political parties and their
claims to public favor. In the hub
bub and turbulence incident on oc-
casions of this kind the attention of
the voter is often drawn to the ex-
citement an1 turmoil on the surface
of these troubled waters, and many
seldom give thought to the deep
undercurrent which they should by
all means fathom. This is the way
that wire pulling" politicians would
mislead the majority of our citizens,
and continue to stir up these troub-
led waters, rather than pour oil on
them to calm the emotions so that
all could see clearly what is the drift
of the current beneath. In this
campaign mighty questions of u ma
tional character loom up prominent
ly before the public gaze, before
which party lines and party issues
should dwindle and sink into insig-
niiicance.
A large following represented by
Grover Cleverland proposes to intro
duce an entirely new order of things
with regard TO the government of
our industries and manufacturing
institutions. Let the voter look be-
meath the troubled surface and CON
slider these question. Is it safe to
adopt these measures VIII it jeo-
pardlze or sustain our industries ?
What are the motives of those who
wish to introduce them ?
On the other hand comes BENJAMIN
Harrison representative of another
multitude who hold just the opposite
views to the above Let no hastily
formed opinion guide you but delve
into the history of our country and
gather facts for your direction. BE
at it. The time is short.
Our national prosperity is the mar
vel OF the age, attracting the atten-
tion OF the whole civilized world.
We have existed under free trade,
and for many years had the arms oi
! protection thrown around us, to
which of these can our prosperity be
attributed ? No room for neutrality
at this time, ponder over tn EN- care.
fully and studiously, and having
formed your opinion come out
squarely for home and country
against party interests or issues.

A LAST APPEAL.

Before the next issue of the PosT
reaches you, dear readers, the elec-
ton will be over and the battle won
or lost. 4 few words as last ap-
peal aud we submit the issue to you
for Il final hearing at the polls.
The prospects are very fair for
Republican success on the National
ticket. The State and Judiciary
tickets are safe though terrible
pressure is brought upon Henry
Brown. our candidate for Associate
Judge. There is no earthly reason
why he should not pull through with
the majority of full Republican
vote in his favor. He is poor, but
competent, wasla soldier and is Il Re
publican. He is entitled to the of
tice and m,tSt be elected. The coun-
~ ticket is safe to all intcnts and
purposes. Lewis f.. Atkinson will
poll his usual heavy majority III this
county. Samuel ID. Bates, candidate
for Senator, must have every Repub-
lican vote III the county to secure
his election He will get them for
he is entitled to them. Take care of
his interests. Aaron 5. Helfrich, for
Assembly, is the regular Republican
nominee, is not only entitled to n
second term, but he is deserving of
it. His character is above suspicion
and few men in public life as long
as he, have so clean an official record.
He carried out Republican princi
pies. Let us endorse him. When a
man behaves so we'll in Office that
the opposition fail to nominate q
man against him, all questions as to
his fitness are set aside Such a
man is W. w. Wittenmyer, our can.
didate for Prothonotary. The Re-
publicans will all vote for him and
the Democrats shonld do the same
Henry j. Duck, our nominee fol
Register and Recorder, is an abl,
officer and good citizen. Our peo
pie like him and ask to have him re
tanned in Office. u. Il. Gemberling
candidate for Jury COMMISSIONS
will receive full Republican vote
for there is no one on the ticket
more deserving of the hopors-
though light they be-than he.
In short, there is, fortunately, NJ
mistake in the whole Republican
ticket. Every man on it is deserving
of the full Republican vote. There
fore be on your guard Don't trade
You have all to loose and nothing tc
gain. Stand up for your nominee
See that your ticket is right and
then put it through without
scratch.

We are pleased to learn that Hon.
Louis T.. Atkinson. of Juniata coun-
ty, Pa, has been again nominated
for Congress from the Eighteenth
district, and hope that he will be re-
turned to a position he has filed
with so much honor to himself and
benefit to his constituents. Mr.. At
kinson is not an ultra partisan, but
has the courage to stand up for the
right under all circumstances. That
he is the firm friend of the farmers
is clearly demonstrated by his un-
swerving support of every measure
introduced into the Lower House of
Congress for the advancement of ag-
riculture. His record is before the
people of his district. and it is one,
we are glad to say, of which any
member may well feel proud, and
we hope that he may be returned to
his seat in the House of Representa-
tives in the interest of the great
cause of agriculture Farmers

The vineyardists and fruit-growers of
the State are beginning to seriously dis
cuss the question of labor supply. Many
of them think that the exclusion of the
Chinese will render it difficult, if not i'm
possible, to secure the necessary help to
gather the grape crop without large ac-
cessions of labor from the East. They
believe that Italians and Portuguese, who
are very numerous at the East, ought to
be encouraged to come here; and the
suggestion is also made that the lib
eral introduction into California OF
colored laborers from the South
would secure us valuable kind
of cheap labor. Nobody believed
that the exclusion of Chinese could be
suddenly accomplished without for a
time disturbing the labor supply in this
State. But this will soon rectify itself.
1t was the fact that the unskilled labor
field Of this State was monopolized by
Chinese that KEEP. white labor from COM
ing here. AS soon as it is known in the
Atlantic States that California requires
unskilled white labor it will come. An
organized effort to utilize boys in picking
the grape crop would help the vine
yardists through this season. There are
thousands of boys who would be glad to
earn wages for few months if they
knew just where they were wanted.
This is subject which the Chamber of
Commerce might consider with ad-

PHILADELPHIA, December 29.-At this

The Civil War ON the chesapeake

BALTIMORE, December 29.-Informa-
ton has been received of desperate
fight between the police and the sloop
Julia Hamilton and the feet of illegal
dredgers that took place last Thursday
afternoon in fishing bay on the Dor
chester county coast. Captain Tyler Of
the Julia Hamilton discovered the pirates
at work in the morning and ordered
them away. They were enveloped in a
dense fog and apparently sailed off but
returned, and in the afternoon Captain
Tyler attacked them. The battle
continued several hours, over six
hundred shots being fred from the police
boat and great many from the boats
of the oyster thieves. An unknown
dredger was shot through the arm. The
boats we're riddled with bullets, though
no serious damage was done. Friday
morning the State forces were strength
ened by the arrival Of the steamer Gov
.ernor McLane, and five dredging
schooners we're captured and towed into
Cambridge-their captains escaped.

THE efforts to procure consider able ap-
preparations to have California repre-
sented both at the London and Paris ex-
positions are commendable, and the
HERALD hopes that the Legislature will
make ample provision for thai purpose.
1t is fact that is difficult Of explana-
tion, that the people of Los Angeles have
been very Indifferent until lately Of being
properly represented either at home or
abroad. Our display at New Orleans
was by no means what it should have
been. The newspapers in the past have
done the major part in advertising the
resources of this section, and the fact
that they have done their work excep-
tionally well by no means releases the
rest of the community from effort. We
should see to it that not only fine rep
resentation Of our products is made al
both of these expositions, but that ca.
pable and energetic Angelef1os are placed
on the commissions.

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD |
INDIANAPOLIS, December 29-Presi-
elect Harrison passed rather quiet
Saturday, seeing about the usual mum ber
of callers, but there were no distinguished
out-of-town politicians among his visitors.
Among the visitors to-day was Judge Le-
baron B. Colt, of the United States Cir
cult Bench of Massachusetts, who called
with Noble G. Butler, of this city. A
couple of gentlemen from Dakota and
Arkansas, and large number Of people
from interior Indiana towns. called
merely to pay their respects. There was
an unusual number of ladies and chill
dren among the days visitors. No ar
rangements have yet been made at
Harrison's house regarding the New
years reception, and it is doubtful if
General and Mrs. Harrison will hold a
formal reception.
THE MOST INTERESTING POLITICAL THEME
Which is being talked of good deal is
the apparent outbreak of hostilities in
the Ohio Republican camp. That is the
way the most astute Indiana politicians
regard Governor Foraker's practical dis
missal of General Charles H. Grosvenof
from the honorary Office of Trustee of the
Soldiers and Sailors Orphans Home at
Xenia, Ohio.
A CRISP CORRESPONDENCE RETwEEN THE
DISTINGUISHED GENTLEMEN
Has been the subject of speculation, and
some politicians profess to be unable to
- 0f hn font
which is beyond dispute, that General
Grosvenor quite recently while here
spoke in the kindliest terms OF Governor
Foraker, and even recommended and
suggested his name for a Cabinet posi-
ton. General Grosvenor's we'll known
intimate personal and political relations
with Senator John Sherman adds addi-
tional interest to the matter. Said a
leading Indiana politician tonight
"You may put it down that when any
one
sLAPs AT GENERAL GROsvENoR, HE HITS
JOHN SHERMAN.
A fire has been smoldering ever since
the Chicago Convention, and it looks to
me as though it had broke out now, and
look for a pretty fight between the
friends of the warlike Governor and the
veteran Senator. We Indiana fellows
can look on with complacency. We are
all harmony, with no factional fights in
sight" This same gentleman is re-
garded as something of an authority on
Cabinet probabilities, and keeps pri-
vate slate which he declares has never
been published. He concluded the inter
view by stating that he was going home
to rub the name of distinguished Ohio
man off his slate. "This QUARREL" said
he, "lets Ohio out of the Cabinet. Oh
that feel certain"
