STANDING Rock AGENCY, N. D., July
29-The scene at Standing Rock this
morning was inspiring Six thousand
Indians were present awaiting the signal

has been elected by the Indians as chief
spokesman, arose and said that they
had compared the present proposed
treaty with that submitted last year
| and as for himself he could not see any
thing in it that was wanted or that
would in any way benefit him and he
would not sign. He said that he under
stood the bill well enough to know that
it was not what the Indians wanted and
declared that it was only those who
knew nothing Of its details that would
sign it. There were many things that he
was not pleased with and con
cerning which he would like to ask
know why it was that the Santees were
not excluded from the benefits OF this
bill, Ae also wanted to know why she
$4,000 expenses OF the commission
should be taken from the proceeds OF the

provisions Of the treaties of 1865 and

among the bitter opponents Of the
measure are Gall, John Grass, Rain-in-
the-face and Sitting Bull. John Grass is
quite q talker and likes to air his ability
in that direction as well as any
backwoods political stumper. He tells
his people that they must stand together
or all their land will be gone and they
will have no where on earth to live.
Those unacquainted with Indian charac-
ter and the history Of this commission,
would naturally infer from such a state
OF things that very little could be done
with such fellows. But there was quite
as determined opposition at Cheyenne
agency. and threats Of violence to amy
who dared to sign the treaty were open
ly made. The commissioners were firm
and patient and now nearly every sig
nature has been obtained and the prob
abilities are now that all will be secured.
Even Hump, who tore off his star as
chief OF police, and declared that he, MOI
none OF his followers should touch the
pen, is now working hard to secure
names. While the people here would
feel a great deal better were the oppo'
sition at Standing Rock a little less un'
animous, yet the situation is not with
out hopeful features. 1t is reported
that the young Indians who have beer
taught by catholic missionaries and are
under their influence, are in favor Of thu
treaty and will sign. These are quite
numerous and should they prove
unanimous in it's favor their names vii
go a long way toward being enough, ane
besides if they sign there will soon b.
a break ny the ranks Of the old fellows
OF one thing all may rest assured, tn
commissioners are doing their best 10
success and General Crook knows wha'
to do as we'll as any mar on earth. L
may require some outside influence ant
help at the close to get names enough,
5 so it will be furnished promptly and W
think the reservation will be opened I'm
der the present treaty.

Tie xsrsls Of Prohibition.

II amy question OF public interest may
b. considered settled by the people it is
that OF prohibition, especially prohibi-
ton by constitutional provision. Nine
states have refused to- adopt prohibl-
ton amendments, Pennsylvania by
$4,000. But this is not all. It is sue
csptible OF proof that prohibition, where
It has been tried has actually increased
intemperance: The people of Rhode
Island, after trying prohibition for three
years voted it down by a majority three
times as large as that by which they
adopted It,. Nine states have rejected

These are serious and significant facts
for the consideration Of people who look
atthe moral, not the political, aspects
.91the questiOn-who desire to check the
tide OF intemperance, to stay the ruinous
custom OF dram drinking, and to anne
iorate the many and great evils of in
temperance. No sensible and intelligent
man can shut his eyes to the deplorable
results Of unrestricted drinking of alco-
holic liquors. By platoons, byregiments,
by. brigades the victims are dropping
0aaly INTO d1ShOnOred graves. Nothing
need be said that has not been said a
Thousand times, over and over, about
the seductive habit OF dram drinking,
but thatdoes otchange thefacts. Pro-
hibition removes all restrictions. It
throws the business of liquor selling in
to the hands Of dishonorable men, who
DEFY or dodge the law. It awakens a
certain combativeness upon the part of
the people that resents what is consider
ed unwarranted attacks upon personal
liberty. Free rum, in the hands of men
desperate and reckless, has always fol-
lowed the attempt to make men temper
ate by legislation. Many sincere men
once prohibitionists now SIZE their
srror and bitterly regret the damage
their mistake has done, for they have
made drunkards and hypocrites where
they hoped to make temperate and
honest men,-they have bred acontempt
for the law when they: hoped to exhibit
it's p6tency-they have really set back
the cause Of temperance where they hop
ed to advance it. To sincere, honest,
patriotic mensuch a reflection is one OF
bitterness apAreal sorrow. There are !
