THE DEMOCRAT has never been in
favor of illusion, (which the Beacon ed
itor knows well enough, and he only
publishes such squibs as the above for
the purpose of misrepresenting us in
the eyes of his readers. We have been
in favor of a uniting of the opposition
to republicanism in this state for the
states good, but have never advocated
''fusion' as the squib quoted is in
tended to indicate. Mr.. Armstrong

Great Bend City Election.

The city election passed off very
quietly, Tuesday. Probably t1e-half
of the people did not know there was
an.election being held. while the other
half did not care very much how it
went.
According to directions of the boss,
republican caucuses were held in every
ward at almost the last moment, and a
straight republican ticket was put out
in each ward. A mass meeting was
held Monday evening, at Hooper's drug
store, and citizens ticket nominated
in each ward. The third ward people,
being progressive and free minded, and
having no strings on them, refused to
swallow anything and everything ac-
cording to label, and elected the can
didates on the citizens ticket.
The vote was as follows:
First wardlCo Council, VIM. Friend So;
T. T. Rhodes IS; VIM. Hood IL. School
board, A. G. Schermerhorn 81; Mrs. ].
S. Dalziel %.
@ Second ward-Council. r. G. Bailey
"a; VIM. Stryker %. School board, A.
J. auckland 90.
Third ward-Council, G.. H. Hume
IS; J. W. Brown SO. School board.
long term, D. G. Luse II; A. Fl. Con-
nett 60; Short term, G. N. Moses 81; j.
K. Humphrey 81.
Fourth ..ward-Council, FL. w. Swift
So; Theo. Dahm 20. School board, w.
II. III. Keeney Sc; VIM. Johns "a.
So far as the candidates are con-
cerned, nearly all are good men and
well able to fill the positions for which
they we're nominated, so that our city
council and school board would have
been in good hands no matter what
ones of them had been elected. The
DEMOCRAT is pleased to note that there
is at least one ward in the city where
the people are not disposed to be die
tated to by the select ring of republican
managers who aspire to fix things fol
the entire city.

Day after day till the end of timel
Never pause and never rest;
Yet every morning the earth Is new, -
And ever the clouds In the golden Yves.
Have q fresh glory shining through"
Hear what the grass saith: "Up the hills
And through the orchard creep and creep,
Over the meadows, and where the iills
Laugh In the shadows cool and deep.
Every spring II is just the samel
And because 1t is am sure to see
Tho orioles flash OF vivid fame
In the p,nk-white bloom of the ample tree.~

The same old story over and over;

Whisper it still to child and lover! -

The song begotten so long Ago.

grzzled old graybeard. at beats all how
foolish young chaps are"
Brown was silent; ho realized that he
had been near death, and shuddered
when, a little later, we passed two moro
dead bodies.
We had all been some time on tho
frontier, yet we drew breath Of relief
when we came to the border of the pla (.
teau and looked down on the encamp.
ment of men Of our own kind, who had
taken strong ground on small valley in
bend Of the Red Water.
The dead men we had seen were a part
OF the sherif's party, who had been to
the encampment and secured the stolen
team and one OF the thieves. and after
waiting for daylight. had started back,
only to encounter the savages. The
trunk and letters had been the property
OF the prisoner. 1t is probable that dur.
ing the flight the officer cut the cords
with which he was bound; but his doom
was sealed; the poor fellow met harde,
fate than he merted
Meanwhile, the sl,erifrs horse mado
his way into Spear Fish, and the blood
with which the saddle was stained told
ut once OF foul dealing. A courier posted
into Deadwood, where company Of
about forty well armed men was soon
raised, aud just before sundown they
reached our party.
We broke camp at once and returned
to Dcadwood, taking up the dead men
on our way, and carrying them as far
Ms Spear Fish. where they were decently
buried. Night came on while we were
crossing the tableland. and as we could
see the indians signal fires in several
places they were evidently arranging
for united attack.
After few days delay we started
again, this time with company Of two
hundred men. The horssman were re.
quired to do the scouting, and the men
with teams to do picket duty.
During the first week we had three
ckirmishes; in the first two OF our men
were killed; in the second, one man was
wounded; in the third our stock was
stampeded, and they stole several Of our
horses.
As we approached the Crow Indians
country the Sioux ceased to harass us;
and finally, after more than months
travel, we reached the guch where we
all hoped to speedily gain fortune.
But here we were doomed to dissapoint-
ment; Lions story was largely pro-
duction OF his imagination, and when
we had satisfied ourselves Of the utter
worthlessness OF the country for mining
purposes, we were glad to so in body
to Fort Custer, which was then in pro.
cess Of construction. All who wished it
found employment at the fort. Some
continued down the Big Horn to the
Yellowstone, where they took pas.
sage on u steamboat for the States. But
the greater numb r journeyed on to the
settlements of upper Montana; fortu.
nately our way in that direction lay
across the reservation OF the Crows, q
tribe which has always been friendly to
the whites.
