Delegate Clifford 10 authorized by the
Indian committee of the house ofrepre-
sentatives to favorably report the bill
granting the Yankton & Missouri Valley
railroad company right of way through
the Yankton Indian reservation. This
is the organization which holds the rail-
road bridge charter at Yankton. Mr..
Gifford's report, which was made to-day,
says:
The Yankton & Missouri Valley rail :
road is corpe ration duly organized
under the laws of Dakota. The con-
struction of this railway ia intended to
be an extension OF the Chicago s. North.

Paul roads in northerly and westerly
direction from the city of Yankton
which is now the terminus of said roads.
The proposed line enters the reservation
at point fifteen miles from the north-
ef st corner thereof, and will run abou
thirty miles in the reservation, being ex
tended across it ia q northwesterly di.
reetiop, the reservation being about
thirty miles in width at this point
There are about l 800 Indians upon the
reservation and they are making some
progress in agriculture and stock rais
ing. The construction OF this line vii
furnish the Indians upon this reserya
ton with convenient market for thsi,
surplus produce. The Indians desire II
have the road constructed, there being
none nearer them than fifteen miles.

M. "a. Dey is on the ground to de-
mand of the democratic national COM
mittee twelve delegates as Dakota's
portion q the democratic presidential
convention. Mr.. Day said to the in
terviewer:
"The District of Columbia and the
territories are entitled to seventy dele
gates insead of eighteen. Dakota alone
is entitled to twelve on the basis of one
congressman to every 1C 1000 population
as in the states. find Dakota has O
larger population than any one OF eleven
states, pulled larger aggregate vote
than any one OF ten states and has more
democratic voters than any one OF nine
states and is entitled to representation
accordingly, and We are going to insist
upon it. We are interested in the noml.
nation of president and the election.
We give fs many electoral votes
for q democratic president as five
New England states, as Pennsylvania
Iowa, Illinois, Minnesota, Wisconsin,
Kansas and other Northern states. Onr
voice is as potentin choosing presi-
dent as Nebraska, 30 far as the demo-
cratic nominee is concerned. Hence,
We want equal representation with these
states in the national convention. You
may say there will be music in the con-
-sIs;oH !: VIC ass=s;snisdd ts.hisss rights.
The territories must be recognized and
treated right. We ask no special favors.
We demand inst consideration in these
matters"
This is good showing for Dakota
from democratic standpoint.

Auditor Ward subjected himself to an
interview in the Sioux Falls Press Sat-

retirement from officiol duties and said
it was his desire to withdraw and that
the governor was opposed to the move.

the recent executive snub inflicted upon

Dakota's railroad commission is said
to haye issued an annual report. In @
year of service this is the first bit OF
official work the railroad commission
has performed. The report cannot be an
account of the proceedings of the board,
for the board has not proceeded that
anybody knows of. II has stood still
and drawn its salaries. The report is
made up of information given as current
news by the newspapers which was long
ago too old for newspaper use. It is
doubtless susceptible of demonstration
that the railroad commissioners have not
earned one cent of the heavy salaries
paid them by the taxpayers OF Dakota.

Sioux Falls on a recent memorable oc-
casion to summon the democracy OF that
burg to the gubernatorial apartments at
the Cataract house. While the editor OF
the Argus is ready at all times to exc
cute public printing with neatness and

the role of errand boy to his excellency
So he went away from the gubernatoriai
presence upon that occasion with rebel
lion in his heart and said not word TO
the expectant democrats who were wait
ing for an invitation into the august
presence. Somehow in the confusion OF
bringing in full bottles and taking out
empty bottles the messenger aud his
elrand were forgotten, and the rank and
site of the democracy OF Sioux Fails were
forgotten-and in fact nothing was re-
membered until the next day when the
governor was nearing Huron .and then he
began to think of things and unravel the
sequences of events. The tangle was final.

the calamity might prudently be laid to

conspiracy, but merely its instrument.

The Flaytian BroilS.

NEW YORK, December 5.-At last
the uncertainty regarding the fate of
the American steamer, Haytien Re-
public, seized by the Haytian gun
boat, Desalines, off the harbOr of st.
Marie, seems about to be cleared up.
Capt. Compton's pluck in sticking by
his vessel and refusal to haul down
the American colors in defiance of the
demands of the Colored Guards in
possession of the steamer, will be re-
warded when the vessel is released.
This was the news received at Lord
andAustin's, agents of the seized YES
sci in this city yesterday. Together
with this intelligence, were received
statements of rival existing govern
ments in Hayti, that of General
Legitime, the provisional president,
being published in a pamphlet, de-
failing his proposed programme, the
other q printed memorandum setting
forth the claims of the government, of
the north to the consideration of for
eign powers. A letter from the state
department at Washington told Of its
decision regarding the Haytian Re-
public. Secretary Bayard says: Your
consul, Mr.. Branlois, has now been
advised of the conclusion of this de-
partment that the validity of the seiz-
ure and subsequent proceedings of the
alleged condemnation cannot be ad-
mitted, and have so informed Mr..
Preston, the Haytien representative at
this capital, who had been instructed
by his government to refer the case of
the Haytien Republic to the govern
ment of the United States. The
agents of the steamship at once sent
a cablegram to Hayti, informing Capt.
Compton, who is supposed to be sill
on board the Eaytien Republic, at
Port au Prince. Mr.. Lord said as
soon as possible, a new crew will GO
down and bring the vessel up.

The Sugar Law Suit.

New YORK, December 5.-The case
of the people against the North River
Sugar Refining Company was con-
tinued this morning, before Judge
Barrett, in the supreme court. Jas. G..
Carter. of counsel for the defendant,
continued his argument. He said the
combination of the.Sugar RefiningCo.,
was not intended as a monopoly for
the manufacture of sugar, nor was it
for the purpose of increasing the price
of sugar. Sugar, he said, was com
modify limited only by the inability
to manufacture. The raw material
was unlimited in supply, and
all that was required for it's
manufacture was capital and labor.
There were other commodities that
were by nature restricted in the sup
ply, and the combination to control
such for the purpose of increasing
their value, might come under the
charge of violation of the law.
