TAURUS RECUMBENT RAW Es
Old Sitting Bull Will Not Sign the
Sioux Bill.

Special to the Globe.
BISMARCK, Dak., Sept. 9.-The report
that the commissioners now at the
lower agencies will soon return to
Standing Rock to treat with the Indians
for the opening of the reservation has
aroused no small amount of excitement
among the opposing reds. While it is
believed that many of the young In
dams may sign if the proper pressure is
brought to bear, it is known that Sitting
Bull, Gall, Mad Bear and Big Head are
as bitterly opposed to the opening of
the reservation as ever. The published
report that Sitting Bull had signed
the treaty was shown the cunning
old medicine man, and he flew
into a rage, accusing the man who
started the report of all the villanies in
his category. He says that this report
was sent out by some one friendly to
the commissioner to lessen his influence
among his Indians, but that he will
show the whites that they cannot fool
him. Gall still says he will never sign,
and that he will sever all friendly ties
with the Indians that do. Notwithstand-
ing the attitude of the chiefs, there are
many among the more friendly tribes
who are willing to sign. Judge Wright's
recent soothing and friendly speeches
have had good influence on the In
dians. 1t is understood that the COM
missioners will return from Lower
Brule to Standing Rock, and will not
visit Cheyenne agency until they have
tried their persuasive powers once more
on Gall and Sitting Bull. They do not
desire to confront Red Cloud until they
have accomplished something at Stand

THEY GET A STONE.
Republicans Offer the People Only
Free Whisky and Tobacco.

Our people ask relief from the undue
and unnecessary burden of tariff taxa
ton now resting upon them. They are
offered-free tobacco and free whisky.
They ask for bread, and they are given
a stone. The implication contained in
this party declaration that desperate
measures are justified or necessary to
save from destruction or surrender
what is termed our protective system,
should confuse no one. The existence
of such system is entirely consistent
with the regulation of the extent to
which it should be applied and the cor
rection of its abuses. OF course, in a
country as great as ours, with such a
wonderful variety of interests, often
leading in entirely different directions,
it is difficult, if not impossible, to settle
upon a perfect tariff plan. But in ac-
cOmplishing the reform we have en-
tered upon, the necessity of which is so
obvious, 1 believe we should
not be content with reduction
of revenue involving the prohi-
bition of impOrtations and the removal
of the internal tax upon whisky. 1t can
be better and more safely done within
the lines of granting actual relief to the
people in their means of living, and at

A DIsCoURAGING OUTLOOK.
If Misrepresentation of our purposes
and motives are to gain credence and
defeat our present effort in this direc-
tion, there seems to be no reason why
every endeavor in the future to accom-
plish revenue reform should not be like
wise attacked, and with like result.
And yet no thoughtful man can fail to
see in the continuance of the present
burdens of the people and the abstrac-:
tion by the government of the currency
of the country, inevitable distress and
disaster. Ali danger will be aYerted
by timely action. The difficulty of
applying the remedy will never be less
and the blame should not be laid at the
door of the Democratic party if it is APP
piled too late. With firm faith in the in
telligence and patriotism of our country

LABOR NOT FORGOTTEN.
Restriction of immigration the
Wage-Earner's Best Friend.

heStrlcUtOn Oh Immigration the
Wage-Earner's Best Friend.
True to the undertaking course of the
Democratic party, we will not neglect
the interests of labor and our working
men. In all efforts to remedy existing
evils, we will furnish no excuse for the
loss of employment or the reduction of
the wage of honest toll. On the con-
trary, we propose in any adjustment of
our revenue laws to concede such en-
couragement and advantage to the en-
ployerS of domestic labor as will
easily compensate for any diff
ference that may exist between the
standard of wages which should be paid
to our laboring men and the rate allowed
in other countries. We propose, too. by
extending the markets for onr manu-
facturers to promote the steady employ
ment of labor, while by cheapening the
cost of the neceSSaries of life we in
crease the purchasing power of
the workingman's wages and add
to the comforts of his home.
And before passing from this
phase of the question, l am con-
strained to express the opinion that,
while the interests of labor should
be always seduously regarded
in any modification of our tariff laws,
an additional and more direct and eff
cient protection to these interests would
be afforded by the restriction and pro-
hibition of the immigration or importa-
tion of laborers from other countries,
who swarm upon our shores, having no
purpose or intent of becoming our fel-
low citizens or acquiring any perma-
nent interest in our country, but who
crowd every field of employment with
uninteliigent labor at wages which
ought not to satisfy those who make
claim to American citizenship.

COLUMBUS, o., Sept. 9.-The capital
OF the Buckeye state is all ablaze to-
night and the scene presented on it's
principal streets is one never before
looked upon in Columbus. Though the
tWenty-first national encampment of the
Grand Army does uot practically begin
until Tuesday, the city is already filed
with the veterans. The first delega-
tions arriving Saturday have been fol-
lowed hourly by the soldier boys
of 1861, their wives, families and
friends. until now there can be no less
than $4,000 visitors in the city. The
weather is delightful, and tonight the
streets are thronged with people, bands
playing, delegations parading to the
time of the fife and drum, an impressive
Inauguration of what promises to be
the greatest reunion of survivors of the
CIVIL war ever known. Everything is
III readiness, and the details of the ar
rangements indicate that the en-
tertainment of the G. A. K. will
be equal to, if not surpass,
that of any previous encampments.
Ihe decorations are fine, and High
street, for the distance Of seven miles,
is literally covered with flags, bunting
and banners, inscribed with words of
greeting and welcome. The business
houses in the main parts show some
masterwork in the decorations, and
they are beautiful as we'll as novel. A
number of arches, brilliantly lighted by
electricity and gas, span the streets, all
giving the city neat, attractive ap-

THE REMEDY
Lies in the Reduction of Duties
on the NeceSSaries.

on the NeceSSarieS.
Divers plans have been suggested for
the return of this accumulated surplus
TO the people and the channels of trade.
Some of these devices are at variance
with all rules of good finance; some are
delusive, some are obscure, and some
betray by their reckless extravaganza
the demOraliZing influence of a great
surplus Ofpublic money upon the judg-
ments of individuals. While such eff
forts should be made as are consistent
with public duty and sanctioned by
sound judgment, to avoid danger by the
useful disposition of the surplus now
remaining in the treasury, it is evident
that if its distribution were accom-
plished another accumulation would
soon take its place, if the constant flow
of redundant income was not checked
at its source by reform i'll our present
tariff laws. We do not propose to deal
With these conditions by merely at
tempting to satisfy the people of the
truth of abstract theories, nor by alone
urging their assent to political doctrine.
We present to them the propositions
that they are unjustly treated in the eX-
tent of present federal taxation; that as
result condition of extreme danger
exists; and that it is for them to de-
mand a remedy, and that defense
and safety promised in the guarantees
of their free government. We believe
that the same means which are adopted
to relieve the treasury of its present
surplus and prevent It's recurrence
SHOULD CHEAPEN
to our people the cost of supplying their
daily wants. Both of these objects we
seek in part to gain by reducing the
present tariff rates upon the necessaries
of life. We fully appreciate the i'm
portance to the country of our domestic
industrial enterprises. In the rectifica-
ton of existing wrongs their mainte-
nance and prosperity should be care
fully and in friendly spirit considered.
Even such reliance upon present reve-
nue. arrangements as have been in
vited or encouraged should be
fairly and justly regarded. Abrupt
and radical changes which might
endanger such enterprises and inju-
riously affect the interests of labor de-
pendent upon their success and contin-
uance, are not contemplated or in
tended. But we know the cost of our
plOuuClS 10 III
creased, and their price to the con-
sumer enhanced by the duty imposed
upon the raw material used in their
manufacture. We know that this in
creased cost prevents the sale OF our
productions at foreign markets in COM
petition with those countries which
have the advantage of free raw
material. We know that, confined in
a home market, our manufacturing
operations are curtailed, their demand
for labor irregular and the rate of
wages paid uncertain. We propose,
therefore, to stimulate our domestic in
dustrial enterprises by freeing from
duty the imported raw materials which
by the employment of labor are used in
our home manufactures, thus extend
ing the markets for their sale, and per-
mitting an increased and steady pro-
duction with the allowance of abund-
ant profits,

APPROPRIATION BILLS
Likely to Get Some Attention in
Congress This Week.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Sept 9.-The pros
poets are encouraging for the DISPOSE
tiOn this week of at least two of the four
appropriation bills pending in congress-,
the cOnferees having agreed TO the forti-
fications bill, the bone of contention in
the army appropriation bill. The heavy
ordnance proposed by Senator Hawley
has been removed, and the adoption Of
that measure will quickly follow the
passage of the army bill. The SEN
ate may tomorrow receive and
adopt the report of the conference COM
mittee Oh the fortification bill before it
resumes consideration of the Chinese
bill. Following the disposition of the
Notifications and Chinese bills the sen
ate will continue consideration of the
bills to make states of Washington, Da-
kota and Montana territories. 1t may
also consider the general deficiency APP
preparation bill, which, with the sundry
civil bill now pending in the house, will
be the only regular annual appropria-
tiOn measures unfinished after the forti-
ficatiOns and army bills are out of the
way. Tomorrow is District of Columbia
day in the house, but members of the
committee on appropriations say they
intend to push the consideration of the
sundry appropriation bill, which has
been pending for several days, to a fin
ish. The amendments relating to the
irrigation of arid lands, providing for
the site and building for city postof-
flee in Washington, and for cOntinu-
alton of the construction of the con-
gressional library, under plans already
entered upon, are the questions which
provoke prolonged debate and cause the
delay. The conference report on the
fortification bill is then to be taken up,

A GALE AT JACKSONVILLE.
Nearly Fifty New Cases of Yellow
Fever Reported.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Sept. 9.-The
gale which began night before last con-
tinues, and all day the wind has blown
with great violence. Last night pedes-
trians had to walk in the middle of the
street to avoid signs that were blown
about. The wind is cold and very
unpleasant, and doubtless will prove
very bad for the sick. Nurses are now
arriving, and one pressing need is
thereby partially filled, but half hun
dred more are needed. Few physicians
have volunteered as yet, that is those
who have had experience with yellow
fever. The expense for camps, nurses.

here it is estimated that three-quar-
ters or even more of them
will have to be supported. No
chance to earn money is offered, and
they refuse to move. Of the 1900
whites large proportion can support
themselves, but it will be seen from
these figures what load Jacksonville
has to bear. There were forty-nine
new cases reported for the twenty -four
hours ending at 6 D. N. to-day, and
seven deaths: Pat Kelly, j. G.. Brois-

Mitchell (colored). Total cases to date
6O4, deaths 73. Among the new cases are
George II. Armstrong, Western Union
telegraph operator, who returned from
a Northern vacation to face the danger
at his post. The day has been dull,
grey, almost cold, with a high wind.
Rev. Mr.. Sharpe, who died to-day, was
pastor of St. Pauls M. E. church.
Though he had lived here but a few
months, he had become popular with
all classes. He had been an
active ministrant to the sick of
his parish. OF fourteen nurses
who arrived from New Orleans last
night eight are on duty at Sand Hill
and two at st. Luke's; six were as
signed to st. Luke's. but four refused
to go there, and struck for S4 day, in
stead of s., as agreed upon. They were

leans tonight and will be assigned to
duty tomorrow. The situation is prac-
tically unchanged and the outlook not

AN ENORMOUS SURPLUS,
Which ShouId Not BE Allowed to
Grow Larger.


Unnecessary taxation is unjust taxa
ton. And yet this is our condition.
We are annually collecting at our Gus
tom houses and by means of our in
ternal revenue taxation, many millions
in excess of all legitimate public needs.
As a consequence there now remains in
the national treasury surplus of more
than Sl30,00O,00 900. No better evidence
could be furnished that the people
are eXorbitantly taxed. The extent of
the SuperfiuouS burden indicated by this
surplus will be better appreciated when
it is suggested that such surplus alone
represents taxation aggregating more
than Sl0S,000 in a county containing
$4,000 inhabitants. Taxation has always
been the feature of organized govern
ment the hardest to reconcile with the
peoples ideas of freedom and happiness.
When presented in direct form moth
ing will arouse popular discomfort more
quickly and profoundly than unjust
and unnecessary taxation. Our farm
ers, mechanics, laborers, and all our
citizens, closely scan the slightest in
crease in the taxes assessed upon their
lands and other property and demand
good reasons for such increase. And
yet they seem to be expected, in some
quarters, to regard the unnecessary
volume of insidiOus and indirect taxa
ton visited upon them by our present
rate of tariff duties with indifference, if
not with favor. The surplus revenue
now remaining in the treasury not only
furnishes conclusive proof Of
UNJUST TAXATION,
but its existence constitutes separate
and independent menace to the pros
perity of the people. This vast accum-
lation of idle funds represents that
much money drawn from the circulat-
ing medium of the country which is
needed in the channels of trade and
business. 1t is great mistake to sup
pose that the consequences which fol-
low the continual withdrawal and
boarding by the government of the cur
rency of the people are not of immedi-
ate Importance to the mass OF
our citizens, and only concerns those
engaged in large financial transactions,

In the restless enterprise and activity
which free and ready money among the
people produces, is found that Oppor-
tunity for labor and employment and
that impetus to business and protection
which bring in their train prosperity to
our citizens in every station and voca-
ton. New ventures, new investments
in business and manufacture, the con-
Struction of new and important works,
and the enlargement of enterprises al
ready established, depend largely upon
obtaining money upon easy terms, with
fair security; and all of these
ant volume of circulating medium.
Even the harvested grain of the farmer
remains without a market unless money
is forthcoming for its movement and
transportation to the sea-board. The
first result of scarcity of money
among the people is the eXaction OF Sc
we're terms for its use. Increasing
DISTRUST AND TIMIDITY
is followed by a refusal to loan or ad-
vance on any terms. Investors refuse
all risks and decline all securities, and
in a general fright the money still in
the hands of the people is persistently
boarded. 1t is quite apparent that when
this perfectly natural, if not inevitable.
stage is reached, depression in all busl-
ness and enterprise will, as necessary
consequence, lessen the opportunity for
work and employment and reduce sal
aries and wages of labor. Instead. then,
of being exempt from the influence
and effect of an immense surplus lying
idle in the national treasury, our wage
earners and others who rely upon their
labor for support, are most of all di-
rectly concerned in the situation. 9th
erS, seeing the approach of danger, may
provide against it, but it will find those
depending upon their daily toll for
bread unspared, helpless and defense
less. Such state of affairs does not
present case of idleneSs resulting from
disputes between the laboring man and
his employer, but it produces an absolute
and enforced stoppage of employment
and wages. In reviewing the bad eff
fectS of this accumulated surplus and
the scale of tariff rates by which it is
produced, we must not overlook the
tendency toward gross and scandalous
public extravaganza which cOngeSted
treasury induces, nor the fact that we
are maintaining, without excuse. in a
time of profound peace, substantially
the rate of tariff duties imposed in time
of war, when the necessities of the gov
ernment justified the imposition of the
weightiest burdens upon the people.

LOWER BRULE AGENCY, Dak., Sept.
9.-Business has begun in earnest at
this agency, all the Indians being pres
ent. A council was held by the Indians
near the agency night before last, and
was conducted in an open and business
like manner. No effort was made at
all to keep what was said from being
heard by the whites OF others. A gen.
eral talk on the provisions of the Sioux
bill took place between those opposed
and those favoring the bill. Chief Iron
Nation made the first speech against
the bill, stating that the government
had not kept its agreements in the past
and, in all probabilities, would not in
the future, and that the provisions of
the present bill would not be carried
out any more than any other. Three
other chiefs, Dead Hand, Shabber.
and Squirrel Coat followed Iron Ma
ton against ratifying the present bill,
taking the same grounds as Iron Ma
ton. A big chief named Big Name, a
very popular Indian among his people.
then arose and spoke apainst the bill.
He said substantially: 'Here is great
work presented to us by our Great
Father, and we must be very careful in
the examination of the bill before we
will say we will not sign. We must
carefully weigh each word said by the
representatives of the Great Father to-
day, l already know how my heart is
on this question.
OUR CHILDREN
are very dear to us, so we must care
fully and slowly consider the result be-
fore refusing this offer. We shall care
fully consider every word said by the
commissioners, then sign the bill for
the benefit of the children. Be careful
and do not declare against the bill, for
if you should change your mind you
would be ashamed to sign later. You
have not yet heard all, and when you
have you may change your mind and
would be prevented from signing by
what you declare now. Should you
care for your children's future do not
be hasty in this important matter. You
will be asking soon if you oppose the
bill, Where is the school for our chill
dren?' what will become of all
The children?' Here are questions for
you to consider before refusing to
sign. Think of them and do not be
hasty. Two young Indians, but lately
graduated, then spoke strongly in favor
of the bill, being followed by Alex Rem
counter, who requested the commission
ers to again explain the bill, which was
promised. The Indians at council yes
terday morning selected their spokes-
men, who are Left Hand, Thunder Or
ator and Surrounded, all being opposed
to the bill. Very few Christian Indians
attended this council, which accounts
for the unfavorable selection made.
Yesterdays council was devoted to
fuller explanation of the bill, Mr.. Cleve-
land doing the explaining. Agent An
derson also addressed the Indians in re-
gard to the proposed reservation and
the present allotments. The Iudians
wish to have the bill explained twice
more, in order that it can be fully un-
derstoOd.
