scription Of the Messiah shirt:-P. H.

and a number Of stars. Tho front or
bosom is surrounded by the fringe OF
torn cloth, while the bosom itself is
painted. one side being yellow and the

A Man Who Know Tits Rights md Dared

A contractor for a new building on
Michigan Q left the cellar un-
guarded at q certain spot, and q young
man who was passing by on his way into
a grocery tumbled in. A cash was cut
in his scalp, two teeth loosened, his ear
cut, and his coat was ripped up tho back.
"Nhere's tho boss of this Job" he de-
mandcd, as he got up.
''I'm tho man" replied tho individual
named. ''I'm very sorry this happened,
and what"
"sorry, arc you! Well, being sorry
won't pay the damages! want you to

II am sorry, as I said before, and am
willing to do what is right. If You"

"Well, 1 tell you what it is, q man
who will SGT o trap of this kind for peo-

and If you don't fork over two shillings,
I'll law you clear to the Supreme Court

THAT'S the way to get your rights

The Indians Move

Monday afternoon the main camp Of
the hostiles, to the number Of 1000 or
more broke camp and moved up to
within a mile of the pickets outside
the agency. Beyond this fact, all is
still conjecture. General Miles is report
ed as being confident that a settlement
will be made without further blood
shed. hut all is uncertainty. Some of
the Indians r eager for a fight and
+ not entirely under the control Of
the more conservative and peaceful
element among them. The majority
OF the Indians favor peace but do not
want to give up their arms. Slowly
the troops are being drawn about them
tighter, and any violent demonstra-
tions on either side will ~precipitate a
bloody battle; and if a battle is precip.
itated by the savages, we agree with
the Sioux City Journal, which Editor.
tally says, ut ought not to be stopped
as long as ammunition and the
strength of the army hold out. There
ought to be but very few hostiles when
the smoke Of battle clears up. The
troops ought to be so ordered that there
will never be another Indian outbreak
in the northwest"

Thayer and Boyd.

Latest dispatches from Lincoln, Neb.
says that both are acting as governors.
The commissioners Of public buildings
furnished Boyd with new quarters
upon Governor Thayer refusing to
give mp his rooms. The state officers
generally recognize Thayer as the pre-
siding officer, while the democrats still
claim that Boyd is really governor.
The militia were called out; but it
seems there was no eminent danger Of
q riot. Everybody was interested in
the contest, hut all seemed good ma
tured, and were disposed to get all the
fun out Of the peculiar muddle, that
was possible. The situation is an en-
ceedingly interesting enc, and may not
be settled for two years. Thayer is
supported by former %rreceden's IN the
circuit courts, and will probably draw
pay for the term.

DOWN OIL the CHEYENNE .

EDlroR SrAn:-Although to some
extent, we are still unsettled as to what
the hostiles may conclude to do for us,
and therefore dwell more or less on
the ragged edge" down here, We still
wear our hair in its usual. form. We
are. quite anxious however, that the
"noble redman" shall become good
Indian." as soon as providence, and
Uncle Sans soldiers can accomplish
the great feat. II Rev. Adirondack
Murray only lived between us and the
reservation We could stand his nonsense
much better, fer we think he would be
in better position to observe and Judge.
It might intluce him to talk and act in
a very different mood. II Sitting Bull
was a martyr, as Murray is reported
t, have said, then the great
indian" is chasing elk and buffalo in
stead Of seeking to tear the scalps from
the innocent crowns Of Rev. Murray's
own race. We are not bowed down
with grief on account Of the
demise OF the great Sachcm. For it
his teachings and belief in reference
to the future shall be fulfilled, where
is the occasion? And no doubt he was
quite as honest according to the light
he had, as is Rev. Murray. But con
sultins Dur own feelings, we can hon
estly say, we had rather take the
chances Of making a clam beside the
''nol.le redman' sovcr there" than
here in Dakota.
Previous to the Indian scare the snl.
iect of building a school house in this
n%eighborhood was Icing considered by
those who have children old enough to
go to school. Nearly a score, that are
eligible, can be found within the limits
of a reasonable distance, and a good,
site, near excellent spring water. can
he secured at several points. Although
we have no pupils, still, we favor the
scheme as fast and as far, as those who
have. All the arms that I can mus
ter, is an old double barrel shot gun,
with a broken man spring in one of
the locks. 1t is just the kind Uncle
Sam should give the ..bucks' and ! am
willing to exchange, for a Winchester.
