RAPID CITY, Nov. 16.-A brighter
and softer day than Sunday can scarcely
be imagined. 1t seemed as though
made purposely for the occasion, which
was the transfer of the bodies of four
pioneers from the graves where they
were laid together after being murdered
by. Indians, in 1876, to the permanent
resting place provided by the city 1t
marked an epoch in the towns history.
In 1876, when the residents of the ham,
let turned their faces homeward after
paying humanity's poor tribute to the
dead men, they numbered in all nine
teen. On Sunday nearly that many
hundred followeds the bones of the pio-
neers to Evergreen cemetery. The
exercises at Library hall were very
impressive. The address by r. b.
Hughes, himself '76-er, was an
eloquent tribute to the memory of the
men who had given their lives in
making this habitable region. The
pali-bearers on the occasion were all
pioneers, many of the original nine
teen being among them. TO these men
there was marked change in the sur
roundings as contrasted with those of
dozen years ago, and the patriotic citi-
zen hopes that another dozen years
shall see again as great change i'll pro-
norton as has the last.

kill off the small fry and give

think their wishes will be gratified. for
our city dads and county fathers are OF

more than twenty-five places will be

THEY WANT TITLE TO LANDS

PETITION TO CONGRESS

CHAMBERLAIN, Dak., Nov. l6.-A
petition praying congress to open the
Crow Creek and WinnebagO reservation
to settlement is being circulated among
the settlers who are now on these lands.
1t will be remembered that President
Arthur, in February, 1885, proclaimed
these lands open for settlement. A
great rush ensued and III very short
time the land was taken up, buildings
were erected, and many invested all the
money they had on earth i'll building
homes for themselves and children.
Shortly after Cleveland's Inauguration,
and in answer to the cries throughout
the East that the poor
INDIAN WAS BEING ROBBED,
Cleveland. on the decision of Attorney
General Garland that the lands were
an order withdrawing the lands from
the market and for all who had already
settled thereon TO vacate. An attempt
was made to force all the settlers to
leave, but the attempt was soon ADAM
doned, and many of the original set
tiers are still on the lands, many of
them not being able to leave, as all their
wealth has been spent for buildings,
etc. Had the Sioux commission been
successful in securing sufficient num-
Der of signatures to ratify the Sioux
bill these settlers would have secured
titles to their homes and schools for
their children. As it is they are consid-
erablv disappointed at the failure of the
Sioux commission. The following
IS THE PETITION
that is now being circulated among
them:
''To the Honorable, the Secretary of
the Interior, Washington, ID. C.-Sir:
We, the undersigned. are settlers on
the Crow Creek and WinnebagO Indian
reservation. who have settled thereon

proclamation. opening the lands for set

lived in peace with the Indians and are

waiting the land. That owing to the
present title of the land we reside upon

vantages, which we highly prize. We
pray the president of the United States,
or congress in the coming session, to
open these lands for settlement to actual
settlers that our needs may be supplied
by securing titles to our homes and
schools for our children. as we are upon
lands wholly unoccupied and not in any
way used by the Indians"

FARGO, Nov. 16.-Dr. Satterthwait. of
this city, being called upon his opinion
OF the late presidential election, attri-
butes it all to the power of the press,
and cites the following as an instance !:
Such leading papers as the Chicago Tribune
and Pioneer Press have been pounding
away for the past two years in their editor
ial columns against high tariff, and we know
that the Tribune and Press are stalwart strik-
ers and got in some body blows. But after
the two parties had put their two candidates
in the field with their platform of principles,
the Northwest leading papers
TURNED RIGHT ABOUT FACE
and applied the blows with equal force on
the other side, and the people largely fol-
lowed. IL graphic illustration OF the
power of the press. 1 would rather be the
editor of large daily than president
As to the facts stated by the good
doctor, there is no question, but the
conclusions at which he arrives are sim
gular for an honest man, and one whom
it would be supposed had some little
interest in the welfare of his country.
He says: ut is graphic illustration
of the power of the press" What is?
Why that the Chicago Tribune and Pho
neer Press can advocate low tariff this
month and the next month change their
shirt and become the champions of
high tariff and carry the people with
them like so many dogs. licking the
hand that smites them. We fail to see
where there is anything graphic in such
degradation. Did he ever take into
consideration that, did the press pos
sess half the power which he attributes
to it, it would be the most dangerous
element in this country: and does he
approve the course of public journals
which he represents as dishonest and
beneath the dignity of the
LOWEST SPORTING
publication? One would judge so, for
he says further, that he would rather
be editor OF large daily than presi-
dent" May we ask for what purpose
Does he admire the course pursued by
scribed by him? Are his SYM
pathies with that class of journal
ism? Is it power to make and
unmake public opinion he is so anxious
to possess? 1t would seem so and also
indicate desire on his part to exercise
it in the same manner and by the
same means as that resOrted to by the
above named papers. Is deeency dead,
and was the doctor in at the funeral?
Henry Clay said: 81 would rather be
right than be president" but the ami
able doctor would rather have the rum
ming of daily paper which prostitutes
itself in the manner he represents than
to be at the head of the nation. A
slight difference of opinion between
statesmen.

very Interesting details of the work and

of territorial offices he calls attention TO
several gross OverSights Ill the law, as,
for instance, he says;
1.-THE SYSTEM OF ACCOUNTS
in the territorial treasurer's and audi
tors Offices. required to be kept by law,
affords no check whatever upon their
mutual action. There is no way pro-
vided by law whereby the auditor can
ascertain how much the treasurer re-
ceives from any source whatever. In
the matter of disbursements, no moneys
can be paid out of the several appro-
priations, except upon the warrant OF
the auditor, but in the case of railroad
taxes under the gross earnings law
that precaution is omitted and the
treasurer is the only person who knows
how much is received or paid out"
HE TOUCHES COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
tenderly but effectively when he says:
''AlthOugh county commissioners are
limited by law as to the amount of in
debtedness they may incur, they seem
to have, OF at least exercise, unlimited
power over the funds in the treasury;
and though it is apparent that the eX-
penSes in some directions are too large,
considering the taxation, yet it is im-
possible for the public examiner to
judge, either Of the necessity or
economy of these expenditures, by an
examination of the records or accounts"
