Col. Forsyti.c's Removal

WASHINGTON, Jan. Especial to the
Sioux City journal: The report ofthe
relief Of Col. Forsythe Of the command
Of theseventh cavalry by Gen. Miles is
confirmed at the war department today.
The officials, however, show a decided
disincliMatlon to talk about the matter,
Gen. Schofeld SAID: ut had been sug-
gestedby a person whom l cannot men.
ton that it would be we'll to look into
the matter Of the fight at Wounded
Knee creek the other day, inasmuch as
the reports state that several Indian
women and children we're killed. Ac-
cordingly Gen. Miles at q suggestion
from here, relieved Col. Forsythe of
his command pending an investigation
Of the circumstances Of that fight,
which investigation is probably now
being conducted by Gen. Miles. The
general management Of the fight is
also to be looked into, but the principal
point in question is the women and
children"
Considerable criticism against Col.
Forsythe's suspension is heard in the
war department. 1t seems TO be d.
rected against the policy Of relieving
an officer during the progress ola cam
paign, instead of waiting until after
the troubles are settled. As to the
charge that Col. Forsythc allowed his
men to kill the women and children, it
is stated that it would be impossible in
the hurry and confusion Of an unex.
pected fight and subsequent stampede
and pursuit, to detect the sex of the
Sioux. One officer remarked:
at is prepostcrous to say it is neces'
sary in an Indian skirmish to stop fir.
ing long enough to find out just what
sort of an Indian you are shooting at.
The women and men look very much
alike in their blanket costumes and the
former are quite as fierce fighters as
the men. The Sioux squaw is as bad
an enemy as a buck at times. Little
boys. too, can shoot quite as we'll as
their fathers, and what a spectacle it
would be for a soldier, on seeing a
ten.year.old pointing a loaded gun at
him, with as true an aim as the best
marksman in the army, to stop his ad-
vance and say: My son, you must
drop the gun, for you are a minor, and
am not allowed to hurt you"

The Nebraska Governorship.


The gubernatorial contest is waxing
warm in Nebraska. Caucuses Of the
the different factions have been at
work at the capital, the alliance men
working hard to seat their candidate,
instead of Boyd. An effort has been
made to unite the republican and DEM
ocratci forces against the alliance, but
it has not vet been accomplished.
What the outcome will be cannot yet
be determined. Boyd and his support
ers are confident he will te seated, and
that the contest, or examination of the
evidence in the contest, will 10 taken
afterwards. In speaking Of the cub
ject Of his citizenship. Boyd said the
other day:
Suppose that / am not a citizen. or
suppose that the legislature should
throw out enough of my votes to seat
Powers, it would take at least two
years to run the case through the court.
and in the meantime I will begoveinor
Of Nebraska"
This Is their position and they willnot
listen to any other theory. 1t is said
that 10000 of Boyd's supporters from
Omaha and elsewhere in the state will
be in the city Tuesday, wearing Boyd
inauguration badges. and that they
will stay until the contamination of
their desires has been reached. There
will he stirring time for the next few
days. A theory has been advanced by
some alliance men, and it has some
supporters, that the first whirl out OF
the box should he to test the question
of Boyd's citizenship andtbat il they
find he is not a citizen then q new
election shonld be ordered within thir.
ty days. Some able lawyers claim
that there is M warrant in our con-
s:itution or law for such proceed
ing, but the theory is meeting with
considerable favor and may prove q
compromise solution of the difficulties.
The republicans favor il, as they have
nothing to lose and Richards may be
in it next time.

WE REJOICE.
The Population of Mexico Ex-
ceeds Five Thousand.

J. T. Williams, who was ap-
pointed by the Ci,y Council as
Census Enumerator, has just COM
pleted his labors and handed in his
books to the City Recorder. Mr..
Williams has made a score of 5, ,255
against 4,7S5 as given In before,
making a difference of 47O. 1t
must be remembered, however,
that an extension of the city's
limits made quite change in the
list, and from the appearance has
varied little from former reports.
1t is enough to know the number
is sufficient to adopt the Australian
ballot system of voting and that
Nj. Williams name, as census
enumerator, will go down to "pos-
terity as benefactor" to the town.
The enumeration is substantially
as follows: First Ward, 536; Sec
ond Ward, 1900, Third Ward, 7S4;
Fourth Ward, 9eS; Fifth Ward,
967; Sixth Ward, 800, making an
aggregate of 5,255. The population
of Mexico is composed of whites,
4, 139; colored, 1,116; males, 1852;
females, 2,7O3; number of persons
under 10 years of age, 1902; num-
Der of persons over 10 and under
II years of age, 1928; number of
persons over 81 years of age, 2, $50.

COttOnseed Meal.

The feeding of cottonseed meal
requires much discretion, as it is
difficult of digestion and liable to be
injurious to young ANIMALS. or
others whose digestion is weak. 1t
Is best fed with bran, which ex-
pands it sufficiently to prevent any
injury. Beginning with very light
doses and a good deal of bran, the
proportion may be gradually IN
creased, watching carefully to see
if any injurious effect follows. At
the high prices for other feeds,
cottonseed meal may be profitably
fed to many kinds of stock if prop
er precautions are observed.

peal to Christian young men and
ask them what they are doing to
influence other young men in the
right direction2 We see on our
streets daily many young men who
show in their faces the effects of
sin and vice. There are many,
many such in this town. They are
headed toward eternal destruction.
Ny heart yearns over the young men
and there is given to you, because
you are young men AN influence that
is given to none other. Some of
them are your associates; try to
show them the perfect manhood of
a Christian life, and by a life of
devotion to your Savior show
them the beauty Of religion and
lead them to Christ. I leave the
question with you, Christian young
men of Mexico. What are you doing

The Baptist Revival.

An exceedingly interesting meet
ing is now in progress at the
Promenade Street Baptist Church
in this city. Rev. DR.. Murphy,
of Huntsville. is assisting the pas
tor, Rev. A. E. Rogers. The at
tendance is very great. Quite a
number have professed conversion
and all appearances indicate a
great revival. DR.. Murphy is one
of the closest thinkers in the Bap.
tist denomination AS a theologian
he is recognized far and near. Any
article bearing his signature is al
ways read by the leading men of
the Baptist denomination. There
is nothing fashy about his style,
but his keen insight into the spirit.
ual meaning of Gods word makes
him exceedingly attractive to
the thinking man. We under
stand that his morning sermons on
prayer were greatly appreciated by
the people. For the last two nights
he has been preaching on the "Con-
version of the Philippian Jailor,"
and to say that his sermons were
strong would not do them justice.
They were simply powerful. A
minister of the gospel of another
denomination remarked yesterday
that Dr.. Murphy's earnestness was
simply eloquence itself. The peo-
Pile of Mexico always enjoy hear
ing such man.
