Tie INDIAN APPROPRIATION BILL.

Congressman Picker and Lucas
united in giving vent to a hearty and
vigorous sigh of relief when the Indian
appropriation bill finally passed the
house today. Both gentlemen have
worked hard OH that bill. and as a re-
suit of it some 100000 will find it's
way into the channels of tradein South
Dakota. Besides the regular appro-
priation for annuities. agencies. and so
forth, the bill contains the following
special items for South Dakota: To
pay the Grow Greek settlers for damage
incurred by the withdrawal of the lands
entered under the proclamation of
1855. $4,000; an additional %appropria-
tion of $1,000 to complete the artesian
wells at Rose Bud. Pine Ridge and
Standing Rock: an amendment direct
ing the secretary of the interior to pro-
coed at once to erect Indian school
buildings at Chamberlain and Rapid
City at IL cost of $4,000 each: the ratif-
cation of the Yankton treaty to open
the fankton reservation: compensa-
ton for fifty scouts. on account of the
war of 1864. $4,000; increase of the sal
airy of Peter CouchmaM. agent at For
est City, from $500 to S1.7OO: addition
al blacksmith at Forest City. $500: to

No one from over the river will ques-
ton the justice of the Black Hills be-
ing given IL of the congressman. For
the eastern part of the state to claim
both senator's and both congressman
would be plainly unfair to the Black
Hills. The eastern portion of the state
of course has the matter fully within
it's power to capture all the nomina-
lions if it so elects. But it can not af-
ford to attempt it. and We believe will
not. Neither the party afford to
even attempt to pacify the Hills with
only some of the minor offices. The
Black Hills wants "a congressman be-
cause it is entitled to one; it also wants
one of the important state offices, be-
cause it is entitled to at least one.
This portion of the state has always
been IA very important factor in rolling
up a republican majority, which facts
are quite necessary to take into consid-
Grafton when it comes to making nomi-
nations.

Public sentiment has probably never
been more solidly and earnestly
wrought up in Hot Springs than it is
at the present time. and we'll it may be.
The heinous offenses that have been
charged against individuals who have
been placed under arrest are enough
to arouse indignation to IL dangerous
point. 1t is plainly apparent that
there has been 81 united purpose upon
the part of certain vicious. degraded
devils to entice virtuous young girls
into their meshes and outrage their
person. They have coyly worked their
vicious plot against morality. virtue.
and all that is sacred and holy to home
andloved ones until they have probably
lured more young maidens to their
ruin than can be counted upon the
fingers of IL hand. Young girls from
fourteen to sixteen years of age. and
perhaps younger. have been by t~iattery
and other seductive methods rayished
and ruined. No knowing how many
there may be or whose home has been
furnished by these lechcrous wretchcs.
The exposure of their vice has startled
the whole community and broken the
hearts of many parents. brothers. sis
tiers and loved oEes already. and for
tunate it is that the matter has. even
at this late day. come to public atten.
ton and been brought before the
tribunals of iustice-and JUSTICE in all
that the word implies. for we believe
such will be meted out to all concerned.
The whole thing should now be si.ted
to the bottom. everything exposed. and

RACES punished according to- heinous-
ness of their crime. There can he no
%eNtenuating circumstances when mere
children are lured into becoming
common prostitutes.
The sentiment of the town. of all
who believe in and love morality and
virtue, is with Prosecuting Attorney
Kellar, the justices, and all connected
with the administration of justice. in
roofing out such vice and degradation.
The matter should not be dropped I'M
til the higher courts are convened, the
grand jury summoned. and the moral
vultures receive their just deserts. The
citizens "a not offord to permit any

Prof. Cook of the Spearfish normal
school has been considerably abused by
some newspapers on account of a false
report to the effect that he refused to
graduate Il couple of students because
they danced at the pioneers picnic. 1t
seems that there is no truth in such a
report. the only foundation forit being
that two boys-not of the graduating
class-were suspended of their own vo
lition. having long before been notified
by the faculty that if they persisted in
drinking and gambling, and were again
caught at such tricks, they might N
slider themselves suspended. The
Spearfish papers say the boys kept up
their sportive life and the suspension
was declared in force. So that Prof.
Cook is no more "puritanical" than he
is expected to be.

1t is one of the inspiring things to
the friends of Captain Lucas that
where he is best known he has the
warmest friends. This has been true
for thirty years. as this writer can tes-
tify. And we have never seen or heard
OF Il man who tramped with him in the
army days who does not count him a
hero. He is Il good campaigner, and an
Industrious and able representative.
Better honor these veterans while they
are with us.-Huron Huronite.
True, every word. So long as such a
man is IL candidate for denomination
for only a second term and we can
state that this is positively his last up
pearance-it would be poor politics as
we'll as an injustice to have Capt.
Lucas turned down. For this reason
the good, sound sense which usually
prevails within the republican party
will again be uppermost this year and
the captain thus permitted to enjoy
the pleasures of laboring in a congress
where there is Il majority of his own
political %faith-thus enabling him to
be of still greater service to his state
than it has been possible for him to be
this year, among a lot of obstreperous
democrats.
