Lands and 800 Sent to
Their Long Rest.

Dispatches from the seat Of the
Indian trouble announce a terrible
battle between Big Foot's band and
the troops that were sent to disarm
them. Capt. Wallace and 80 men
were killed and about as manv more
wounded while the Indians last
about 300. 1t seems that the Indi-
ans had surrendered and the orders
had been given to dIsarm them.
They were massed in the center of
the troops preparatory to doing this
when without warning each Indian
drew rifle from under his blanket
and commenced firing. The fire
was speedily returned and battle Of
determination commenced. Most
Of Big Foot's band was wiped out
Of existance but it is reported
that about 5000 bncks have left
the agency and taken the war
path to avenge tine killing. If this
is the case the end of this trouble
is not yet seen.

The senatorial question is OF
much Importance to the people and
the politicians and would.be leaders
are taking an active part in the can
vass. This is right. We ought all
to be interested in having a capable
representative in the U. S. senate.
Fortunately all the prominate cam
dldates are Of the right stamp and
there is but little danger of a mis-
take being made. Some politicians
IN there zeal for Pierce's reelection
are endeavoring to make it appear
that North Dakota is destitute of
proper material Of which to make
senators other than those we new
have. This is mistake. They
may succeed in making outsiders
believe it, but the people of North
Dakota who are acquainted with
Hon, Il. c. Hansbrough, Gov. Mil
Ter and Col. Lounsbury know better
and will probably not be deluded by
any such nonsense, Hansbrough
has shown that he is capable of rep
resentlng his constituency, and out
side OF few scheming politicians
who cannot use him as they please,
he has the confidence and esteem of
the people and they would willing
ly trust him in any position. Gov.
Miller although but short time in
public life has already national
reputation and whenever and wher-
ever his name is mentioned it is
with the utmost respect. He is
known to be clear headed, honest
and practical, man of whom any
state might we'll be proud. Col.
Lounsbury has for many years been
actively engaged and deeply inter-
ested IN matters pertaining to the |
welfare of Dakota and there is no
man who more thoroughly under
stands her condition and wants.
no man more capable to represent
her, no man more honest or gentle
manly both in private and public
life. He would honor any station
within the gift of the people. The
representatives from this county will
without doubt vote for the re-elec. |
tion OF Senator Pierce as they were
instructed to do by the county con-
vention, but however much we NAV
respect and honor our present sena-
tor let us be thankful that we have
other good men for the position.

Editor REPUBLICAN,:


Ijudge the coun-
ty commissioners or some Of them
are somewhat worked up over that
car Of -four. Well I am glad they
do not have the substitution Of it,
It might be like the coal, the ones
that need it the most get the least
and some especially those with large
families get none, and they will not
have any chance to get their per
diem and mileage, and those that
got no benefit will not be taxed to
pay bill Of two or three hundred
dollars as they will be for the coal
We are not destitute or paupers but
there are many needy ones and they
ought to have help in the way of
feed and seed and the way some Of
the commissioners are doing we are
not likely to get it. l hate
sponger or a dead beat, yet they are
no worse than one that will throw
mud at worthy cause because they
can't reap all the benefit,
Yours Resp,

In Hymen's Bonds.

The following from the Cairo
Daily Telegram Of Dec. II tells the
story Of a wedding of more than
passing interest to the citizens of
this place and county.
The sun ne'er shone on BONNER
bride or happier groom than at 8
o'clock this afternoon, when the
nuptials Of Miss Sallie Ward and
Mr.. j. w. Lucas were solemnized at
the Church Of the Redeemer. Cards
were issued short time ago and the
Church was filled with the friends
Of the bride in response.
Messrs. Joe Tanner, Stats Halli-
day, Julius Schulz and DR.. Archer
acted as ushers. Miss Winthrope
Dunning presided at the organ. and
as the beautiful strains Of the we'd
ding march stole out on the air the
bridal party entered. The bride at
tired in an elegant gray cloth, tailor
made, travelling costume was csc ort-
ed by her father, while the groom.
III the conventional black suit, ap-
preached with the BRIDES mother
from the vestry room. They met
at the chancil rail and the young
couple Joined hands and lives. The
impressive Episcopal marriage cere-
mony was performed by Rev, DR..
Davenport, and the firm, clear re-
sponses from bride and groom prov
ed their realization Of the solemn
obligation they were taking and that
it was union Of hearts as we'll as
hands.
The beautiful church was crowd
ed to its capacity by the many friends
OF the fair bride, who were anxious
to testify their appreciation of her
by witnessing her marriage to the
man Of her choice.
At the conclusion of the CEREMONY
the bridal party filed out Of the
church and entering carriages were
driven to the home Of the brides
parents. and the vast audience slow
lv dispersed. At the residence Of
Mr.. and Mrs. Ward, the bride and
groom were Joined by number of
their friends where congratulations
and blessings were layished upon
them, and where they found an ele-
giant wedding dinner awaiting them.
This was partaken of and after re-
newed congratulations mingled with
fearful adieus Mr.. and Mrs. Lucas
left on the Illinois Central's 5 o'clock
train for Chicago where they will
spend the first two days Of their
honeymoon, thence to Minneapolis,
Mimi, where reception will bs
rendered them at the home of the
groom's parents and where they will
spend the holidays, after which they
will start for Cakes, North Dakota.
their future home. It is useless to
speak of the brides true worth and
many accomplishments for she has
made Cairo her home mosto her life
where she is widely known, highly
esteemed and beloved by ali who
know her, and with whom she is

Southern Progress.

Superintendent Porter. of III,
I Census Bureau, shows that tn,
( South is producing IS much coal
/ iron ore and pig iron now as the
whole United States produced il
1870, and he predicts an equally
marvellous progress Of the South in
the manufacture Of steel during the
coming decade.
The value of Southern agrieuI-
turaI products was two hundred
and fifty million dollars greater in
1889 than In 1879, while the rail
road mileage during the same
period increased from twenty
thousand 10 forty thousand miles,
and the assessed value of property
doubled. Marvellous strides have
also been made not only in the pro-
duction but also in the manufacture
Of the great Southern staple,
cotton.
In the opinion Of Superintendent
Porter there Is 10 more striking
aspect Of the development OF the
new South than the growth of
Southern cities. Birmingham,
which was unknown in 1870 and
had three thousand inhabitants in
1850. Is now 4 iourishiDg city OF
nearly thirty thousand. During
ten years the population Of Chatta-
noOga has increased from twelve
thousand 70 twerty-nine thousand.
Little Rock from thirteen thousand
10 twenty-five thousand. Knoxville
from nine Thousand TO forty thous-
and Atlantis from thirty-seven
thousand to sixty-hye thousand.
Roanoke, the northern gateway Of
