that they are quite likely to be again
transferred to wilder and newer loca-
ton. There is little danger of further
harm from them. The other tribes do
not respect them and they are power
less of themselves. The details of their
recent racket show that they have
waited to shoot from ambuSh-nOt in
open warfare-and in that they initiate
all the bad Indians that ever carried
arms.
One of the most interesting episodes
of our life was visit at Miles City from

Northern Cheyennes, and his request to

fession of the five mentioned,
exculpating him, made thrilling
recital of telegraph news throughout
the United States and landed the five
confessors in jail. He dictated that he
hoped they were well, that they should
send to the big chief if they wanted
anything, and that he would take good
care of their squaws and papooses.
When asked to sign the letter he just

Airing

The Boys Go Out for General
Airing.
A jolIier company of oarsmen never
got together than those composing the
excursion party of the st. Paul Boat
club which pulled up the Minnesota
river yesterday morning. The boys
were out for a general airing, and the
perfect day was turned to good account.
Three crews, made up by Messrs. Pet
tingill, Flanagan, L overlng and Smith !;
Robertson, Stark, ZenZius and Murphy {;
Kenna, Theobald, Green. McCune and
Gar rett, coXswain; and two doubles,
Gall and Blakeley and Forest and A.
Stark, with the singles of Messrs. Mel
son and1DorSey, comprised the active
Oarsmen, while the steam launch Idle
Hours, generously extended to the
members by Capt. Joe Rines, was laden
with admiring friends and guests. The
party left the club house at 10 o'clock
in the morning and piled its way to a
beautiful grove at the confluence of
the Minnesota and Mississippi rivers.
Here the colors were hoisted, the shells
banked and the festivities inaugurated.
Charged with the slim illus of country
air and good fellowship, the boatmen
made the woods ring with college song
and frolic. Foot ball, base ball, swim
ming, racing, lunching, shooting and
speechmaking happily wore away
the Eday.

officer Miller yesterday morning discovered
the limb of human being in a box in the
rear of the Minnesota Milk company's place
of business, on Seventh street, near John.
The officer had noticed the box for several
nights in going through the alleys on his
beat, but not until yesterday observed that a
bad odor pervaded the vicinity. Tracing 1t
to the box. the limb was found. Coroner
Qninn was notified and took the CHASTITY find
in charge. 1t had probably been amputated
at the knee from a young man and been cast
aside by some physician, as it was partially
wrapped in cloths and surrounded by lime.

Under the head of sc. J. Smiths
Boom Scheme Nipped in the Bud" a
Seattle paper gives the following:
President Adams, it is reported, has
required General Manager G. j. Smith,
of the Pacific division, to come out With
a circular stating that the Union Pacific
has had nothing to do with the Port An
geleS boom recently started by local
officials of the rord. Vice President
Holcomb will look into the matter dur
ing his trip.
In the same article appears the follow
ing:
1t is understood that the Union Pacific
proposes to locate and operate line
from Victoria to Sound cities. The idea
is to run a railroad ferry between Port
Angeles and Victoria, Tor which service
the company desires a bonus from the
two towns.
1t may be that President Adams may
reduire General Manager q. j. Smith to
''come out with circular but just
why he should deny what he
has never stated is difficult to
imagine. There was company

Olympia Railroad company, or some
thing of that kind, to build road from
Port Angeles to Portland. 1t is not
known that the Union Pacific had any
thing to do with the matter.
Such a road will be built sooner or
later. probably sooner, by some one.
but it will hardly reach the principal
cities on the sound. 1t was pet
scheme of the late Mr.. Dunsmuir
to have ferry established be-
tween Victoria and Port Angeles and to
have railroad built to the latter place,
to be connecred by the ferry with his
railroad on Vancouver Island, which
he would extend to the northern end of
the island. By this means a route could
be established whereby tourists could
reach Sitka in three days from Port
land. The scheme is feasible one,
and will, without doubt, be carried out:

AS far as the State ticket is concerned the
Democrats have only one hope. They do
not expect to defeat Gov. Burleigh, but they
hope to cut down his majority. And their
reliance is chiefly upon Republican apathy.
They know perfectly well that there is much
sulking in their own ranks over the attitude
of the second Democratic convention on the
the liquor law, but they hope there will be
enough indifference among the Republicans
to more than Offset this and reduce the Re-
publican majority below the average figure
of an off year. 1t lies entirely with Repub-
licans to determine whether their hopes shall
be realized or not. If Republicans in large
numbers say to themselves that there will be
enough votes without theirs and accordingly
fail to go to the polls, the Democrats will
shout Monday night over the cutting down
OF the Republican majority. II. on the con-
trary, every Republican does his duty the
Democrats will 60 home early. Gov Bur-
leigh has made conscientious, careful mag
istrate. The business of the State has been
aoiy managed during his term Of Office. He
therefore deserves hearty endorsement at

The election in Vermont shows consid-
cradle falling off in the Republican vote,
with the consequence of cutting the Republi-
can majority. A great many Republican
appear to have stayed at home, some of
them simply because they knew the State
was safely Republican, and therefore did not
deem 1t necessary to put themselves to the
trouble Of going to the polls, and some. per-
haps, owing to dissatisfaction with the atti-
tued of the party in regard to certain local
questions. chiefly the question of the best
plan Of restraining the liquor traffic. Prohi-
bition has not accomplished all that was ex-
pected of 1t In the State and the consequence
is that there is an element among the voters
that desire to try the experiment of high
license. Some Of this element are Republi-
cans and In some representative districts
they evidently joined with the Democrats
and elected representatives pledged to the
high license plank. This accounts for the
increased number of Democrats represen-
tatives chosen. There is nothing in the re-
duction Of the majority for Governor or the
majority in the legislature to give Republi-
cans of the country any uneasiness. The
Republicans of the Green Mountain State
have simply INDUCED in little kicking over

The Boston papers, or some of them, have
just discovered that the harbor of that city
Is not a complete success. They seem to have
had suspicion that it was bad for some
time but certain recent occurrences have
served to bring its defects out prominently.
1t seems that the Cunard steamer Pavonia
appeared off Boston Light last Sunday after
noon at three O'Clock, when the tide was
ebbing. The captain and the pilot after con-
sultation decided not to risk a trip up the
narrow channel with their heavily laden
ship at that stoge Of the tide and accordingly
she came to anchor. The passengers were
perfectly willing that the ship should wait
for high water, but they wanted to 20 ashore
on tugs themselves, No tugs could be had
however because the customs officers were
not willing to 60 down to the ship to examine
the passengers baggage. There was there
fore nothing to do but to wait, and they ac-
cordingly waited, reaching the dock at East
Boston at 10 a. m, Monday. OF course there
is good deal of fault finding. The passen-
gers blame the captain and the pilot, and they
In turn, together with the agent of the line
blame the harbor which they say is very
difficult and dangerous to approach with
large steamers. How much better it would
be If those steamers came here! In this har-
Dor the Pavonia could have come straight
up to the wharf, landed her passengers,
transferred them to the Union Station and
had them all at home in Boston by nine
O'Clock Sunday evening. If the Cunard line
wants good safe harbor let it send its
steamers to Portland where there is water
enough and to spare.
