LOOK HERE, FARMERS !

Commissioner Henderson has
made report recently, and the At
lanta Constitution says that it shows
that the average cash price of bacon
for 1888 was 9.71 cents pound

credit was for four months. Corn
cash price n cents-credit pride 90
cents. The advance is about 26 per

The commissioner actually con-
graduates the farmer on having re-
duced the rate from 106 per cent.
last year to rs per cent. this year.
He attributes this encouraging re-
duction to the Efforts of the Farm
ers' Alliance.
Things are curiously adjusted
when the representative of class of
honest citizens feel called upon to

land. Mai. Warner clearly explained that
the present treaty only added to the old
one, not having any effect to do away with
that. He concluded his task by On ap-
peal to them as friends to remember that
they were fathers and should provide
their children with some security against
the future. Two Strikes, disgruntled
old chief, harangued them briefly, asking
for further increase of the price of the
lana. When In Washington last winter
he thought $l25 enough, but now he
thought an Incl ease of % cents would be
Just; but of course such an increase was
beyond the powers of the commission.
Speeches were made by the most siren
uous opposers to the bill-Hollow Horn
Bear. Two Strikes, and Yellow Hair. The
first speech was made by Two Strikes,
briefly in the following language: What
/ said the other day, the same say to-
day. There we're some payments which
YOU promised me under the treaty OF
1868 for thirty years TO come. Now, when
there are ten years yet TO come in which
We are to receive annuity goods and all
those things which you promised me, you
come with another treaty. We all remem-
ber that other treaty. You say this treaty
and the one of 1868 60 along hand In
hand l cannot understand this. My
thought and that of my people is to have
payment for the goods as promised in
1865. / have heard about John Grass

From Rosebud the Commissioners went
to Pine Ridge Agency and held council
with the Indians. All the principal
chiefs and many of their bands. as well
IS the representative men of mixed blood,
we're present. Agent II. ID. Gallagher
was chosen by the Indians to act as in
terpreter.
Gov. Foster, Chairman of tie Commits
sion, then addressed the Indians. lie
said: my friends, We greet you by that
name and believe you meet us in that
spirit. The Great Father has sent us to
you with an act of Congress for your ac-
ceptance or rejection. We are here to
explain il to you fully, and any word we
say or You say will be taken down and car
red to the Great Father-your questions
and our answers-and If we talk wrong,
then the Great Father will know it and
all that we do will go for nothing. One
of our number is known among the In
dians as a man who never deceived them.
We expect you TO ind that We will do the
same way. You must know that you cam

between the present and last years bill
He concluded: "We are not here to asl
your consent if you are unwilling to Civ

friends among the white men believe thi
bill is a good one for YOU"
Major Warner then spoke 10 the In
dams. He said: my friends, the day
of war are past, and the days Of peace be
tween the white men and the rel mel
have come. The Great Father sends u
here to-day TO talk with YOU as one frien

when YOU can live by hunting, and now
YOU can only live as the white man does

wishes that your sons shall be taught
how TO farm and become mechanics, and
your daughters shall become your school
feachers. and that the money which is
now paid to the white men shall be paid
TO vour own people, and that you shall
become citizens as the white men. He
has sent us to you to tell of this bill, and
we can neither add to it nor take any
thing"
He explained how the proposed reser-
yat;on for this agency exceeded in size
that in last years bill, AMI on that point
alone there was enough land to give ey-
ery man, woman and child l22 acres, and
that in the whole reservation there would
lie $50 acres for each Indian, young and
Old. ."In this bill it is provided that YOU
may take your land in severalty and have

with reference to allotments, and IS to
the assistance the Government would
give in starting them In the new path;
also with reference 10 the educational pro-
visions. and the permanent fund created,
and how the interest is TO be expended.
Major Warner concluded BY asking each
one not 10 be influenced by prejudice, by
anger, or fattery, but urged each one to
think and act for himself. AT the con-
clusion of his speech the council broke up.
Throughout the council the Indians lis
tened with close attention and v ere evil

which the act of Congress was explained
by the Commissioners. 1t is probable
that they will expect several days IL

will take any decided action.

the public domain. The Government
offers the red men $l.25 per acre for the
land, or $l3, $50, 900 for the entire tract.
The signatures of three fourths of all the
Indians of the tribe will be necessary to
consummate the contract and open this
vast area, which will afford homes to TO-
600 settlers, giving them 100 acres apiece.
There Is little doubt that the negotiations
will be successful, and it is expected that
some time in August the President will
issue his proclamation throwing down the
bars which now keep home seekers out OF
this coveted territory.
The first council with the Indians was
held at Rosebud Agency. Some of the
chiefs were stubborn, or pretended to be
so. at the start, but throuVh the influence
largely of Gen. Crook sufficient number
of them were induced to affix their sigma
lures to the treaty 10 insure its ratifica-
tion. Gen. Crooks well-known prohity
had wonderfully good influence with the
Indians. They know him we'll as their
friend, and when told by him that this
was good bill they had faith in his as
sertions. One Indian, spokesman of
the Ogallalas, came in from his band to
inform the General that his band would
sign if he would assure them OF his
(Crooks) approval of the bill, and this
is but one example of what he has done
with all the bands. OF active personal
contact with the Indians Gov Foster
and Maj. Warner had none except in
general council. While as enthusiastic
and as earnest in the work, they were
strangers to the Indians customs, and
were looked upon with more suspicion
than one whom they know as they know
Gen. Crook, who has been their good
r. - he Tho nHdnnaa W hiQb
the Indians have in Gen. Crooks entire
disinterestednes made him the speaker
for the commission. The General made
a speech 70 the Indians in which he ex
pressed his sorrow that they should treai
him SO badly when they knew he was
their friend. He referred to the time
when he was in charge OF the entire
Sioux Nation, and appointed military Off
GERS to be their agents, and asked: DID
not get you rations then? Did you eveI
90 hungry when was here? Now, wheI
i come back after eleven years / fine
you here, and you tell me you are m,
friends. Have you treated me like
friend2"
The General briefly allu ded to the ex
periences he had with the Apaches, an,
described the continual westward flow o
population by saying: THE white men II
/ the East are like birds. and brood afte
brood matches out to find no room TO
them except in the West. When tn
ire atty Of 1868 was made there were bu
few white men west OF the Missouri
River. Now there are many, and the lam
is wanted. want you TO become men
take your land in severalty, SO the Gov
eminent will give you paper for it, an
no white man can get your land fror
Won nor from YOUR children"
Some misunderstanding arose from tn
misconception of the present treaty, whic
thought that the Government would abro
gate the old treaty and substitute the pres
ent, using money belonging TO the Indian
under the ola agreement to purchase th
