The Kind Of Tariff Reformer Mr..
Mills is.


The friends of the Hon. Roger Ouale.
Mills are yelling that he is entitled Il
the Speakership Of the Fifty-second Con
gress because he is the representative
and leader of Tariff reform.
The kind of Tariff reform that Mr..
Mills wants he preached on the stump in
the Northwest last year, when he ought
to have been at his post in Congress try
ing TO earn the salary which the United
States pays for his magnificent services.
He declared himself in favor of absolute
Free-Trade and an income tax
Mr.. Mills is not a Tariff reformer.
He is a Free-Trader, pure and simple;
exceedingly simple if he thinks that the
Democratic party has forgotten his words.
Here is the platform upon which Mr.
Mills stood in October 1890, and upon
which the Democratic party will be sup.
posed to stand if he is elected speaker:
''Free-Trade will kill trusts as dead as a
door nail And yet the American people in
sist on sending men to Congress that vote
for Protection.
1.-THE Almighty never designed that aay
man OF any woman should be independent
Of his fellow man. He made US dependent

must have. To do this i0e must hare ALSO !

WE trust that Governor Reynolds will
be very careful with his health and will
keep well and in perfect condition until
his term as Governor expires. The Leg
islature failed to do its duty in several
respects, but the most fragrant error it
made was in selecting Donohoe speaker
at the beginning and failing to GUST him
at the ending. If Governor Reynolds is

Hostiles without u Head.

Pine Ridge, January lO.-The hos
tiles burned several cabins near the
agency yesterday.
Government scouts report that the
Indians are without q head and in theii
frenzy are destroying their own prop
erty and beating their own people.
They are all in war paint.
The soldiers are so close to the hos
tiles that skirmishes are frequent. The
assassination of Lieutenant Casey by q
son-in-law of Old Corn, a survivor OF
Big Foot's band, caused panic IN the
village of the hostiles. Red Cloud.
questioned as to the strength of the
hostile Brules, said: 'There are 1000
warriors, not counting old men and the
women and children, or 5000 all told.
With the Ogallalas, who are with the
hostiles, the camp numbers 1000 souls"
Red Cloud said that the Rrules were
armed as well as the soldiers.
This shows the magnitude OF the
work which lies before the soldiers.

Pine Ridge, S. D., January 13.-Dur-
Ing the morning q number Of bucks and
eQuaMs from the hostile camp arrived
on hoHseback and in wagons, in all
stages Of dilapidation. The arrivals,
however, .were not as numerous as had
been expected, the main body of Indians
still remaining near the mission. AS
the refugees or visitors reached the
outposts they were deprived Of their
arms by the guards. The willy hostiles,
however, displayed only few weapons
and these were later returned them
when the owners went back 10 the hostile
camp. It is not at all improbable that
many Of the bucks haH arms concealed
about their persons. Shortly before
noon Frank Girard, who had been to
the hostile camp, arrived and announced
as he few by that the Indians were not
coming.
The chiefs mentioned in the dispatches
OF last night, who were expected to have
big talk with General Miles, had not
made their appearance and it began to
look as If Gerard's report was correct;
but shortly after noon it was discovered
that the hostiles had made a rapid ad-
vance and about 1000 of them had AZ
rived to with 1000 yards of the pickets
outside OF the agency. General Miles
and stan went to the picket lines and
q short inspection OF the bands, returned
to the agency for the time being.
The Indians will not be permitted to
enter the agency, and communication
with them has been prohibited. When
they do come in the Ogallala Sioux will
be stationed near Red Clouds house,
west of the agency, while the Brules
will be placed on the east. General
Miles has had short talk with Ameri-
can Horse and his band.
Colonel Baker, assistant paymaster,
has returned from his trip to the several
commands in the field, all Of which he
paid save thatlof General Brooke, which
will receive its money when it reaches
the agency. This arrangement was
made at the suggestion Of General
Brooke himself.

from the hostile Brules and came 10 the

Buffalo Bill and Buckskin Jack ar

cooperation Of the state troops with

THE CROP REPORT.
The Best December Return an Wheat For
Two Years.

The Best December Return an Wheat Fol
Two Years.
WASHINGTON, Jan. l2.-The esti
mates OF the products OF corn, wheat
and oats OF 1890, as compiled by the
statistician OF the department OF agri
cultur, makes corn aggregate /, 489, $40,
600 bushels; wheat 800, 60, 900 bushels
oats $40, 62l 200 bushels.
The area OF corn, which was slightly
increased in planting was reduced b,
utter failure and abandonment by more
than 5000, 900 acres. The area harvest
ed, 7l,979,763 acres. The average
yield per acre was 20.7 bushels and the
supply for consumption per head oi
population is % bushels, or eleven
bushels less than last year. The rate
OF yield was lower in 1887 and 1881,
years of very severe drouth.
The aggregate wheat acreage Is 49,
087, 154 acres, nearly the same as In
1879, and the yield per acre Ill
bushels. These are measured bushels
Of quality grading somewhat lower
than usual, the weight OF which will be
given in the March report. Past re-
cords have shown that the annual diff
ference in weight of the crop are not
often more than a pound above or below
the average weight for series OF years,
the lowest for seven years being 56.5 in
1888 and the highest 58.5 in 1887. The
yield per acre Is the same as in 1880,
when the product was nearly 416,0O0,-
600 bushels, and with two exceptions is
the lowest rate during the past decade.
The area in oats was 20, 1859 acres
the yield per acre was 1913 bushels.
This is only IA per cent of the average
of ten years past, which was 1852
bushels and the smallest rate of yield
ever reported by this Office.
The December condition of the grow
ing wheat crop is returned at 1874 and
of so. This is better than December
returns for two years past. Along the
Atlantic coast slight depreciation : is
noted as the result OF the excess Of
moisture in some localities, making
planting late and giving rather small
growth before the advent OF freezing
winter. In the Ohio Valley the season
was generally favorable for seeding and
the growth and the plant entered win
ter quarters in promising condition.
Some damage was done by the Hessian
fly, especially in early sown fields.
Condition in Missouri and Kansas was
variable, local injury from drouth and
fly combining to somewhat reduced state
