A cowboy last week held up the
banker at Grover, a small town 40 miles
southeast Of Cheyenne, in Colorado.
The robber covered G. G.. Smith, the
proprietor, with a revolver, and made
him hand over the funds in the safe,
about 5000. He then walked out,
mounted his horse and rode away. A
posse at nee started in pursuit, but al
last accounts the fellow was still al
large.-Sundance Gazette, 26.

posed of, and the land will be open for
settlement. 1t is, Of course, impossible
to say just when this result will be

Sioux Reservation.

The cession of about IL 100000 acres
of the Sioux Indian reservation, lying
almost wholly in South Dakota, is ex-
pected shortly as a result of pending
negotiations with tho Sioux tribes.
The opening of this reservation, so long
a barrier to the progress and develop
ment of Southwestern Dakota, will be
followed by the building of at least two
railway lines across the coded tract to
the Black Hills, the richest corner of
the kingdom" which has been isolated
from the rest Of Dakota during the
fourteen years of its existence as a spot
in civilization. The Chicago and North
western, now halted on the Missouri
river at Pierre. and the Chicago, Mil
waukee and st. Paul ut Chamberlin be-
low, are waiting while the noble red
man drives a sharper bargain with the
government this summer than he did
last, and expect TO build to the Hills
either this or next year. The lands to
be ceded by the Sioux will be reserved
for homesteads only, the terms of settle
ment requiring Il residence of five years
to perfect title, soldiers and sailors
having the benefit of their terms OF
service up to and including four years.

Dire necessity has compelled
thousands of disgusted oklahoma
boomers to make a rush or the Chero-
kee strip. and recognising the e~xigencies
OF the situation, the administration has
taken prompt steps to negotiate with
the Indians for a purchase of these
lands, In the meantime, a tragedy of
famine, suffering untold hardships and
crime. will go on in the unhappy terri
tory where SO many bright hopes are
buried. Those who are able to get away
should come to the northwest at once.

can get a claim, and he does not have to
pay for it with his life either. Here all
the necessaries Of life can be obtained
at reasonable prices. Here the soil is
as fertile as the supply o fland is abun.

is found here-land, law and civiliza-

rush for the boundless plains of the
northwest, and their trials will be at an
end and they will be happy once more.

The French have the reputation of
making the best coffee. Their method
is very different from the American
method They take a great deal of
care in making this favorite beverage,
and the result IS that when French
coffee is taken one drinks the pure
favor of the berry. They always
grind the berries just before they are
to be used, and do not let a quantity
Of ground coffee stand and get stale.
The French cook then pours boiling
water ON the ground coffee; then she
filters this, and, after boiling the
water again, pours it on the coffee
once more. This is repeated third
time. She never boils the coffee and
water together, nor puts the coffee in
cold water and then let it boil. TIL
French do not know how to make
good tea, but they give this recipe as
the proper way TO make tea; Pour boil
ing water on the leaves and then turn
it out Of tho pot Then pour ono-third
OF the water required, and place the
pot over steaming apparatus III order
to letit draw without boiling. After
q while add another third, and then
the last third. In this way the full
flavor and strength OF the tea is OBJ

a TERRIBLE ELEPHANT HUNT.

Sitting about the camp fire on the
banks of the Chobe river, in Africa,
Professor J. W. Edwards heard the
story of an elephant hunt that affected
aim more than any experience he ever
passed through. says 0 writer in The
American Field. Burns. a trader in
Natal. was the author of the narrative,
and told it as follows:

started. The boy was bright, cour
ageous lad, and was ambitious TO dis
tinguish himself with his rife Early
one morning in Water valley we saw
a herd of fifteen elephants grazing
about q mile from us. We started
them up, and picking out fine bull
with good tusks, started to cut him
off, and telling George to ride behind

old fellow out Of the pack, and gave
him . shot behind the ear that stag
gered him little. Then we crossed

not get any good shots. All at once
the horse George was riding stumbled,
throwing him and falling on his leg,

move; bat finally, seeing Georges at
tempts TO extricate himself, | tried to
draw the elephants attention to me.
The brute was thoroughly cnraged,
however, and charged for the lad Just
as he was getting on his feet. Then
followed one of the greatest fights be-
tween brute and man / ever saw. Off
went George, the elephant after him,

the boy turned around and did like

moment, but seeing George running
again he made furious charge and
caught up with him. Up went his
trunk, and moment after the poor

sent in two shots that brought him to
his knees. He tried to rise, but could

rocks over his grave to keep the wolves

to judge the Liberal and Peoples parties
"by their traits"
One more illustration of the expansion
Of the more than Liberal ideas of Gov
ernor THOMAS is found in the following
"Theirpower and influence should be de-
stroyed, so far as the administration of
school affairs is concerned, and this can
only be done by taking the management
and control OF the schools out OF the
hands of its enemies"
Governor, why not ask for the Idaho test
oath at once and be done with It'll BY the
passage of the Idaho test oath much bother
could be avoided. You have asked for all
of the county offices, the schools, the ter
ritorial offices, and as one of the Utah COM
mission, for legislative commission, and
why not have the courage of your convic-
lions and ask for all you want, viz: the
entire political and financial control Of the
territory, and the taking away of all rights
from the people!
BY demanding the rule of the minority
over the majority you might be considered
anything but truly loyal American gen.
tleman, and yet in substance you have
done this very thing. THE HERALD con-
fesses that it has equally as much, if not
more, respect for the governor OF Arizona
for coming out square-footed and asking
for what he and his Republican friends
want, as we have for our own governor,
who asks for the same thing butin differ
emit and more roundabout way. 1t is per
haps unnecessary to say that our admira-
ton for either party is not unbounded.

HALFORD'S BLUNDER.

1t is altogether too bad that LIJE HAL
FORD, an experienced journalist and a man
whose chief If not only disreputable act so
far as known, is acting as private secretary
to the head OF the present administration,
should go so far as to brand himself as "a
ASH with big A. His interview regard
ing the result of Tuesdays elections would
naturally incline any respectable and right
thinking citizen to believe that he was
sloshing around between the waters which
divide the poor sufferers from mania potu
from those who are suffering from chronic
non compos ni<nttI.
The fact that LIJE has done good and
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1889-11-08

efficient newspaper work ought to enable
him to steer clear of such shoals as he has
not only failed to avoid but become stran-
ded upon. For instance, in the interview
In question, he tries to stave Off the moral
effect of the great Democratic victories in
the east by relieving his chief of staff of
all responsibility. This is servility and
therefore not characteristic of the true
journalist; but he goes further and resorts
to the stock arguments of his party to ex-
plain away the cause of the great Virginia
downfall. He is not now running a news
paper nor connected with one, and there
| fore his attack on Democracy in the south,
while he is in position to be comparatively
Independent, show that he has not the in
tuition of the true iournalist-that he is in
| fact q journalistic Quack and a political
pettifogger.
LIJE's predecessor, DAN LAMONT, never
made any such breaks. He also was
| journalist and thorough one. No non
sense was permitted to attach itself to his
department and no foolishness emanated
from his bureau. Becoming the perfume

moment to overlook the solemn fact that he
was not SUPPOSED to bear the wrong-doings
or shortcomings, if there might have been
such, of the administration by which he
was employed. OF course we are not now
looking for LANNON'S in such places, nor at
all. If we did, we would be grievously dis
appointed. ~
The biggest break made by Bro. HAL
FORD is as before suggested, his statement
regarding the outcome in Virginia, which
he attributes to bulldozing on the part. of
the whites, and thus depriving the negroes
of their acquired rights. If the election
had been close, this or any similar state
ment might have had some cogency in view
of the fact that the white people of the south
are determined not to be controlled by the
blacks; but when we consider that the
Democratic majority is nearly if not quite
equal to the whole eligible black vote, the
position in which ELIJAH places himself is
painful to the fraternity. He ought to do
at once what the dispatches for some days
past have credited him with intending to
do namely, resign, and get back into the
surer and more untammeled atmosphere of
journalism.
