Chamberlain is Happy.

Chamberlain, March pa telegram
was received at this place yesterday
morning about 8 O'Clock from John FL.
King at Washington to the effect that
the Sioux bill had been signed by the
president. The bells OF She city and the
whistles of the mills announced the
good news, and there was Il general re-
JoIcing by our people In less than half
an hour the street presented Fourth OF
July appearance, all business houses
having been decorated with flags and
bunting. The band headed grand
parade and the day was spent as holi-
day. One OF the features of the occasion
was the Indian war dance by number
of the young men in the disguise of In
disns. Those who are familiar with the
question of the reservation will reeog-
nize this display as being the third
which the people have made in honor of
its opening. The good news will en-
courage the people much in the capital
contest so near at hand. A grand capital
ball was held in the evening.

ments OF leading republicans upon it,

istive and administration policy OF the
government for the next four years it
justifies those conclusions to which the
most careful Judgment has been tending
throughout the winter. That the idea
of protection to home industry will be
stesdfastly maintained. and that future
revenue legislation will depend upon the
entical relation of revenue to expendi-
ture under proper system of liberal
management to commerce and expendi-
ture for the public defense. That the
industrial development of all parts OF
the country will be encouraged by leRis-
lation end administration. and that the
freedom and purity of the ballot will be
regarded as au object of national care
and responsibility. That the civil ser
vice Law be observed in its full
spirit and its scope extended as the
growth of public sentiment permits.
This is rather more definite laying
down OF principles than one often finds
at the outset OF an entirely new govern.
ment. The Harrison administration OPP
parently knows what it is sbout.

The Daily. News says: "Gold had

ton than on any that has gone before.
The rich on both sides virtually buy
places in the administration by liberal
