A. Iesa Flag Nearly occasions "a Riot.

\ Red Flag Nearly Occasions 10 Riot.
Individuals residing in The immediate
vicinity of Sheeley's packing house,
Omaha. were somewhat surprised Sunday
afternoon to see IL crimsoned flag floating
from the top of u tree that was station ned
in their midst. Inquiry followed and re-
suited i'll the information that the flag was
the emblem Of the anarchists and that it
had been placed there by members of the
socialistic organization in that city. in
memory of the anarchists who met their
death on the gnllows mt Chicago. just one
year ago. The patriotism of the neigh
borhood became aroused and people be-
came so indignant that there was talk of
appointing u committee of the citizens for
the purpose of finding out if possible the
responsible parties. The matter reached
the central police station. and Sergeant
Mostyn. accompanied by Detective Orms-
by, repaired to the scene. removed the
source of disturbance and conveyed it to
police headquarters. ln the meantime u
large crowd had c%ongregated and became
somewhat disorierly. hut the tearing
down of the banner was racifyins and
those who had c%oneregated on the SPOT re-
turned quietly TO their homes. 1t is thought
that the flag was placed there by the same
coterie of individuals that performed II
similar exploit last wear.

After the third theft the soil-tiller
moved a large boar to the pen to well
come the bear OH its fourth visit. The
boar posseese dlong tusks and bounced
upon brnin the moment he appeared.
The bear attempted to hug the enemy,
but the porker wa, too ute to allow
this, and after taking numerous blows
from the bears huge paws, as il with u
relish, ripped the intruder open will,
his tusks. Presently the farmer came
up with u lantern and an ak ind

II is said that Il sharp reaction has
set in against DIR. Sir Morrill, Macken-
zie's hook in England. He has reck-
lessly revealed everything that occur
red liz confidence between himself and
his colleagues. Many of his state.
ments in regard to his relations to the
deceased Emperor are unsupported ex-
cept by his own word. and the great
German physicians have denied many
of his allegations, where his own We
racity stands alone against that of two
or three other witnesses. Under the
supposi,ion that the hook had the
conntenance of Queen Victoria and her
daughter, the widowed Empress, its
publication was liable to cause serious
complications with Germany, ana the
British people feared such a result.
Altogether, DR.. Mackenzie had better
have "let it blow over" without print
ing u book on the subject.

Justice To Dakota

The people of the northwestern terri
tories need be in no doubt concerning the
friendiiness of P~resident-elect Harrison
towards their admission as states. lie
was chairman of the senate committee on
territories in the Forty.niMth congress and
reported bills in favor of admitting the
southern half of Dakota and Washington.
Had the house acted on either of these
measures II was the committee intention
to then report a bill for the admission of
Montana. 1t is believed that one of his
first recommendations will be for the adj
mission Of south Dakota and Washington,
while it may be he will also include north
Dakota and Montana. In the report he
made to the senate Gen. Harrison favored
the division of the territory. that portion
of the territory south Of the forty-sixth
parallel of latitude to be admitted as the
state OF Dakota, and that portion north of
the forty-sixth parallel TO be organized as
Lincoln territory. He defended the Sioux
Falls convention which favorcdthe division
of the territory. His report made in Janu-
airy, 1856, shows that The population of
each division on that ground alone entitled
it to statehood. The population of south
Dakota was 263, 4t5, while that of north
Dakota was l5., 1889. 1t j, now estimated
that the total population of the two
divisions is over ,iN0. 'n0. On this score

of all our northwestern states and terri
tories and it is t,ue Of Dakota, that u
large number of soldiers who served the
country faithfully during the late war are
to be found among her people. The re-
spect of her people for the institutions of
religion and learning is evident

Great excitement prevails at Red Wing
over the report of a horrible crime com
mitted by some of the remnants of the old
Winnebago Indian tribe which was for
nerly located on the Winnebago reserva-
ton near llempelcan, Wis. They were
removed to Nebraska. but numbers of
them still remain in the vicinity, the au-
thorities being unable to compel them to
remain i'll Nebraska, as they still cling to
the memories and associations connected
with the reservation. About 9D0 oi them
remain in Wisconsin. aud are mainly self
supporting, but numbers of the DID ones
still live by hunting md fishing and retain
all their old customs and sl,perstitions. ex-

them to deSist. At the commencement of

~ NNSuluktOu SVtClut oI u recent unte

members of the late Sioux commission are
engaged ut Carlisle. Pa. in the piepara-
tion of the report of the failure of the
commission to secure the consent of the
Indians to the act throwing open the res

from the Indian Office large numbers of
documents and maps to he used i'll the
preparation of the report. The latter will
not be very extensive nor interesting. The
facts in the case We're made known as the
commission went on with its work, and
there is little more to make public. 1t is
understood that the commission will lay
particular stress upon one recommended.

keeping II reservation upon which Indians
may still maintain triba relations free
from white men. Squaw men have been
the curse of every Indian tribe. and they
are in part responsible for the attitude of
the Sioux in the present case. They so on

grow rich ont of it and finally leave with

half breeds which they leave behind. This
is largely the Indian Office view of the
case: amt while it has lone all it could to
check the evil the laws are not stringent
enough, and the commission will recon-
mend that they be properly amended. The
recommendation of the commission that
the concessions demanded by the Indians

Greece is making remarkable pro-
gress in educational matters, her king,
George having done much toward
this improvement. There are IN that
country six normal schools. which
have in late years supplied over 300
teachers
The school located in Christie street.
near Canal IN New York, Is attended
by the very poor. Having seating
capacity OF about one thousand, the
average attendance reaches 1900 pU-
pills. Even this does not complete the

The immense force of literary energy
in American life i demonstrated by
the success of the Chautauquan sys-
TEN. The pondence system, or
part OF the general schedule, is not the
main work. but the most remarkable.
There are now p 600 local reading cir
Giles. embracing. in ten years. over
i30.U members. and at present 5000.
These students include persons asso-
ciated with every known sect, and
those who class with no sect at all. In
the annual school session the proper
ton of students Is rather in favor OF
the Episeopalians. Presbyterians and
Methodists, but Baptists, Congrega
tionalists and other sects are close be-
hind, and averaging well up with the
first named are the Agnostics and In
dependents. Ii would be impossible
to describe in brief note the gran
deur OF the enterprise in its breadth
and catholicity. Ii illustrates as well
as helps to make the generous toler-
ance of our age.
