Charles +. Ashley, United States In
dian agent at Darlington, o. T., writes
denying the statement made in the
EAGLE of the 31st ult.-taken from its
Oklahoma exchauges-concerning the
ghost dances by the Indians in that
jurisdiction. lie says 1.-THE representa-
tions made In the articles referred to are
without foundation IN fact" Most of
the papers from the western part of
Oklahoma concur in the statement the
EAGLE published, but probably their in
formation was obtained from the same
source of the EAGLES. In any event it
Is gratifying to know that the Indians
have manifested no disposition 70 be-
come ugly IN their department.

G. Wood Davis, the distinguished stats
tician, predicted that wheat would sell fol-
81 per bushel by January 1.-Salina Re
publican.
Mr. Davis did nothing of the kind. He
predicted that the price of wheat would
reach $3.50 before the crop of '92 was
harvested. 1t is six months until that
time, and during that six months will
come the real test of the worlds supply.
There will be time enough to ridicule a
carefully deducted conclusion when it
shall have been upset and nullifed by
subsequent demonstration of facts.

Under the present law $50, 900, 600 in

The Southern Pacific road and the
Railway Telegraphers have arrived at a
settlement of their difficulties Each side
made some concessions, but the advan-
tage is with the telegraphers, who are
allowed TO join the Order of Railway

discharged were reInstated This last
point was in fact the gist of the contest.
The concession will no doubt prevent
the recurrence of such contests as this
last one, and thus avoid consequent en-
barrassment and Inconvenience to en-
