Rapid City. S. D., Dec. o4.-TwO hundred and forty
four of Sitting Bulls followers have surrendered AZ
Fort Yates and Fort Bennett. Colonel Sumner has
rounded up $50 of Big Foots people the Cheyenne
River and will probably bring them in to Fort Meade.
Colonel Merriam is following up the stTagglers from
Humps camp who have broken through the Gordon

Dad Lands. The majority of the outlying troops are
concentrating along the Cheyenne River, and tho
order is daily expected close in the rencsades
The Indians last night set fire to ranch belonging 10
a man named Mccormick. Troops were Immediately
sent out. but arriving at the ranch found nothing
but heap of smouldering ashes. The Indians had
taken everything OF value, burned tons Of hay and
killed nine becves Mccormick and his family hAA
left the ranch some few days ago.
Denver, Col Dec. pa dispatch TO "The News
from CcstOn, > d.. by courier to RAPID City, says:
The situation hero remains unchanged. Things have
a better look since the disaffeced Indians from tho
north have been captured and returned to Fort Meade
Bat reports have been received concerning the
situation IN the Bad Lands.
10 Is reported that some cowboys have lain the
reservation lines for Indians and when they appear
shoot them, thus causing great deal Of Ill feeling
and trouble which il is hard 10 subdue. There Is no
doubt that. although the Indians the principal ag
gcs 5Drs yet since the arrival Of the military the COW
boys and nncherS have become daring and are now
themselves mocsng the Indians instead OF protecting
their homes. The department commander has given
Instructions to watch all these settlers carefully and
should any be caught in the act Of Invading the Indian
reservation to attack the Indians then disarn them
and make them prisoners.

THE st. Louis GIobe-D Democrat noteS
the circumstance that there are S45 900, =
600 more in circulation now than at this
time year ago, and cites the fact as
proof that the treasury is not responsible
for the present stringency IN money.
But for Harr!son's bungliug and in
capable administration, and the botch-
work done in congress, there would be
no stringency. The recklessness and
profilgacy with which the surplus and
government revenue have been scattered
abroad, have put money enough IN cir
culation, but the politico-legislativ
tricks and schemes of Harrison, Reed,
Mckinley s. Co., have counteracted
the wholesome tendency, and inspired
lack of confidence in business cirles.

'WILL ALLEN, p" she who wrote rAgin
the Mountins,' has raised quite q
storm about her ears by late article re-
lating to class of people she has I'M
earthed in Hancock county, Tenn. This
isolated corner was virtually unexplored
until this plucky little woman visited it
and described the ways of the inhabit-
ants. These, she says, are locally known
as Malungeops, and are u mongrel peo-
pie usually believed to be the offsprings
of union of Cherokees and runaway
negroes. These people neither toll, nor
spin, know nothing of work, live hard
and are very sharp traders. The result
of the dispute is that considerable verita-
BILE history as well as traditional lore is
seeing the light, and Miss Dromgoole
seems to have proved her case, that in
the heart of the country there is Pc
culiar people of whose existence the ma
joritY were ignorant.

IT IS suggested TO our esteemed con-
that the connection between efforts to Sc
cure better observance of the Sunday
law and the preference for the Demo-
cratic nominee for governor Is not clear.
But since the Express seems concerned
about the moral health of this city il may
be relieved of anxiety by remembering
that Fort Worth feels the necessity for
an observance of law aud is alive to the
duty of party loyalty, and that this sem
sibility removes all need for "heroic
remedies. - Surgeons agree that sensi-
tiveness is the best proof OF an improved
condition in the ulcer they strive to heal.

THE trades unions of Australia have
got the thing down to fine point. In
the neighborhoo6 of Sidney new theater
was being erected. The building had to
be finished by certain time. The brick
layers were receiving eleven shillings for
a day of eight hours, and every extra
hour was counted as an hour and a
quarter. They really got fourteen shil-
liugs and six pence for ten hours. They
struck for shilling more. Hundreds
of men, including many bricklayers,
were applying for public aid ut this very
time, on the ground of being unem-
ployed, but the contractor dared not en-
gage any OF them, ana was compelled to
grant the extra shilling, while the brick
layers out of the union were put on re-
lief work by the authorities. No wonder
the employers of Australia are organ
izing to fight the devil with IRE by the
formation Of unions.

binding twine and the South taxed cot
ton bagging and ties. Such criticism
ought to appear to the ordinary individ-
ual as at least allowable, If not just and
merited. But Senator Blair of New
Hampshire thought otherwise, and in q
spirited reply rsbuked the Texas senator
for finding fault with anything done by
government that mercifully spared his
life.
That is a fair sample of New England
logic. What connection or analogy
there was between Senator Reagan's
tariff criticism and his Confederate
record it is impossible to conceive.
There was none, of course, and Blair
knew it very well. When Reagan ven-
tured the assertion that there was IN
fairness in the placing of those duties,
Tartuffe retorted, "What II there is?
Are you not a pardoned traitor who owe
your life to the mercy of the govern
ment? Instead of imputing unfairness
to the majority of this body you should
be breathing prayers of thankfulness
that you were not long ago hanged like
dog.'' Such is the New England style
of knock down argument, and such the
spirit of fellowship, charity and Godli-
ness dominating the soul of this pious old
fraud, this odious hypocrite and insulting
bigot.
He complains that Southerners are not
loyal, don't love the flag and appreciate
the Union as they should. II it were
true, which 1t Is not, would it be won
derful, when Southern senators are con-
tinually being subjected to brutal tsunts
and insults from malignant and hoary
headed witch burners, whose upturned
eyes, and lips dripping with unctious
Goodness, mask the SOIL shriveling
hatred that burns within them? How
can there be O union of hearts with such
reptiles Us Blair?

WHAT 1T WILL DO,

The appropriation by congress of $500 :
600 for the Galveston harbor bears far
more than local significance. 1t is q
matter of deep and abiding concern not
merely to Galveston and the state OF
Texas, but to the entire West, which
for the past two or three years, has been
looking outward for an outlet for its
urplus products. The fear and mistrust
entertained in that section that the East
would probably hinder and delay as far
as possible the establishment of deep
water harbors on the gulf coast chilled
to some extent the interest directly felt
now definitely settled in favor of the
state, and as the government Is unQuali-
fiedly committed to the policy OF devel-
oping Texas by aiding its deep water
projects. tagging interest in the state
will revive throughout the entire West,
and even In the financial circles of the
East. The mere fact that Southern and
Western senators and representa-
brought to congress q case sufficiently
strong to overcome the cupidity, con-
servatism and inheret prejudices of the
East against Southern development. is
of itself prima fscie and Incontestable
proof that an immense field for industrial,
and commercial expansion has been dis
covered and brought to The atten-
ton of the whole people. It
is the best proof to be had that
immense possibilities exist in Texas, and
an advertisement to the world OF OPP
portunities for great and profitable in
vestment. 1t challenges IN the most
direct and convincing manner the favor
able attention Of capitalists and inves-
tors. by its universal publicity, and
the newspaper comment it will receive
throughout the Union, it will impel thou
sands OF farmers and tillers of the soil,
tradesmen, artisans and others TO crowd
will be of incalculable advantage to the
state. Men and money will come, and
with them the added energy to acceler-
ate development in cultivating the MIL
lions of acres OF virgin soil in the state,
in building mnch-needed railroads, and
establishing factories. The passage of
the river and harbor bill can be regarded
in no other light than as the beginning of
a new, and the most important era in
the development of the state. It ex-
plodes the false and foolish notion enter
tanned elsewhere that Texas ia distin-
guished only by its long-horned cattle,
its cowboys and six-shooters. The gov
eminent does not blow in millions in de-
veloping state with no better resources,
no other stock In trade than that. There
must be something Of great value, some
thing Of Importance back of it; some
thing that concerns the entire nation, to
warrant the enormous expenditure. In
stead OF being terra incognita to tens
of thousands, Texas will henceforth be
known for what it is, and is to be.

WHEN the negro ruled, robbed and
degraded the South, it was all right with
Republicans living hundreds and thou
sands of miles TO the northward. But
now, when white Republicans have been
attracted to the fair fields and fertile
plains of Dixie land, they feel and see
and cry out against the abomination Of
the subordination of the superior to the
inferior
