How Fielder was Killed ny the In
dian Police. A Noted Frontier
Character.
Pierre Capital, ID: The trouble COM
menced on Tuesday night when Fielder,
failing to extort from his Indian wife all
her pony money which had been paid
her by Agent Lillibridge, by peacable
means, beat her into insensibility and
almost to death. The news reached the
authorities at the agency the next
morning and Chief OF Police Fletcher in
company with two Indian police went to
see Fielder and to take him before the
police court, visiting him twice, but all
p~ersuasions and arguments had no effect.
Several hours were allowed to elapse be-
fore any further action was taken, dur
ing which tinei it is asserted, he openly
defed the authorities, announcing that
there wasn't enough policemen on the
reservation to arrest him.
During the forenoon he came over the
river, he seemed agitated and excitedly
he hurried away. About 4 p. m. Capt.
Straight Head vas given a warrant for
the arrest OF Fielder, and with six add.
tional policemen proceeded to his house,
but found the door locked. On being re-
fused admission and to come out and be
peacably arrested, Capt. Straight Head
and his company proceeded to break in
the door. This hadn't more than been
done, when Fielder rushed out with an
x appraised and made for Capt Straight
Head, who consequently had no 'alterna-
tive but to shoot. Immediately a fusil-
ade commenced and in less time than il
takes to tell it all that was left Of VIM
Fielder was stretched out on the ground
with eight bullets in his body.

SINGLE TAX UNCONSTITUTIONAL.

The Maryland Courts Render m I'm
portant Decision.
BALTIMORE, March 16.-The anti
single tax men have won. The court of
appeals Of Maryland has decided that a
tax upon land alone for the support of
the government of this state or any part
of it, or the government of any county
or municipality is not in accordance
with the provisions of our present con-
stitution and cannot. therefore, be
enforced. This decision grows out Of
the single tax system enforced upon the
citizens OF Hyattsville, in Prince George
county.
All Equally Projected.
The opinion handed down ut Annap-
oils says: As those who own build
ings, improvements and personal prop
erty in any of the various forms, al
well as intangible and tangible, are
equally protected in their possessions
and in their national rights by the state
and local governments with those who
own land, the support OF these govern
ments should place no heavier charge
upon one than upon the other class of
individuals. This has been the uniform
and consistent policy always followed
in Maryland. Eminently just in itself,
q sound and long accepted axiom OF
political economy, has been incorporated
in her organic law since Nov. 8, 1875.
This decision ends the attempt to try
the single tax in Maryland.

Summer in New Jersey.

New Jersey is an unfortunate state.
The natives had barely begun to enjoy a
breathing SPELL after the ad-
iournment of the race track legislature,
when the warm weather came Every
body expected the regular annual plague
of insects to arrive with the summer.
But no prophet in Jersey foresaw the hor-
rors that have already come to pass; and
the summer is not yet half gone
The mosquitoes came first. But not as
usual, one. or two or three at a time;
they came in clouds and swarms, and in
every other manner of collection known
to mosquitodom. At one point they at
tackled a lot of Hungarian laborers on a
phosphate dump, and actually bit them

"skeeters' rapacity. AT another point
they caused a strike of laboring men, who
declined to furnish both blood and Drawn

was alleged that the company affected by
the strike would offer to erect canopy
of netting over each laborer. Whether
or not this compromise was made and. &C
cepted is not known.
Following the mosquitoes, which are
still in evidence, came a plague of flies
upon Elizabeth They were small,
grcen-headcd flies, mot much larger than
a mosquito, and descended upon the town
in swarms." The globes on the electric
lamps were nearly half filed with the
insects, while under Jhe gas jets in tho
stores the dead flies could be gathered up

Railroad Rates to the Fnir.

1t is not about time for the southern
railroads to think about making a cheaper
round trip rate to the Chicago fair7 The
roads leading out of New York have re-
duced their rates On four days of each
week rates from New York to the exposi-
tion and back have been established
ranging from II to $50. These rates are
just half the regular rates. There re
swifter trains on which the rates are
higher and the accommodations better,
but the cheap rate trains have good ac-
commodations and make the trip in 80
hours.
A cheaper rate from southern points
would be helpful to the railroads because
it would swell the volume of travel
Dozens would visit the fair where only
one viii visit if present rates are main
tanned. The Ocean Steamship Company
might make an arrangement with the
lines leading out of New York that would
enable it to offcr rate that would attract
many Georgia and Florida people a sen
and land route combined would be a
tractive one.

Trade in New York during the last six
months has not been dull and it is not I'M
usually dull now. The World of that
city has interviewed q large number of
the merchants and they speak encomag-
ingly and hopefully of business. They
are not in the least depressed. Many of
them say their sales for the first six
months of this year exceeded those of the
first six months of last year. Their Gus
toners have not purchased in large guam
titles, but they have replenished their
stocks oftener.
Collections have not been slow. On the
contrary, they have been fully up to the
average, and they are satisfactory now.
The condition of business in New York
is pretty good indication Of its condition
in other cities, because in many lines of
trade New York supplies very large sec
ton of country When the merchants Of
that city complain it is pretty certain that
merchants in other cities are depressed
and discouraged.
The difficulty of getting money and
credit is OF course embarrassing business
and nearly all kinds of Industrial enter
prises, but if congress promptly repeals
tn silver purchase acJ there viii be a re
turn of confidence and money will be
much more plentiful There is money
enough in the country. What is needed
is confidence, so that the money will be
put into circulation.
