AN ALARMING REPORT.
Investigation Proves No Ill Feeling Be-
tween Indians and settlers.


tween Indians and settlers.
FARGO, n. D., May Limited States
Marshal Cronun received the following
dispatch from Deputy sclindler, at St.
Johns: Between 2JO and 800 hostiles at
Langan are preparing TO resist, and citi-
zens are leaving ST. Johns through fear
If you come at all, bring assistance enough
to quiet the disturbance and protect set
tiers"
1t is stated also that the Indians had
burned the houses Of settlers who had tes-
titled against them. But on running the
seory down it appears that but one case of
that kind has occurred. Sunday the mar
shal and deputy had a council with the In
dians who had rescued a half breed
charged with cutting timber on govern
ment land from arrest, and told that they
had come there to arrest the parties, and
that they should surely do it, Little Shell,
chief of the Turtle Mountain Indians told
them that the government had never paid
the Indians for their land, that he had
given permission to cut the timber, that
he had a right togive that permission, and
that they would not allow any one to be
arrested for cutting timber under his or
ders or with his permission.
The marshal reiterated the statement
that they had come to make arrests and
intended to do it. The Indians asked who
they wanted, and on being informed, they
called the persons, and when they came in
the marshal read the warrant and under
took to make the arrest, but the Indians
forcibly resisted. The marshal returned
to Fargo and wired the attorney general
for Instructions. The offense is slight at
most, and feeling is general among the
settlers that the indictments against
settlers and others in that region are
more for the purpose of making fees for
officers than any other purpose.
There is no probability that anything
will come out of the alleged outbreak.
There is no feeling between citizens and
Indians, but towards Shindler, the deputy
who made the arrest, and has made him
self obnoxious in other matters, the feel
ing is bitter

WHEN Colonel Waring, the airish street
Commissioner of New York city, says the
Carbondale Leader called the members
of the Grand Army of the Republic
pension bummers," he probably ex.
pressed the sentiment of the kid glove
snobocracy of this whole country. The
men and the sons of the men who sent
substitutes and staid at home and got
rich during the war have now only con-
tempt for the humble men who ask their
country to give them pensions. Perhaps
some pensions have been granted to un-
worthy men. Ninety.nine hundredths of
them have not. At a time when they had
all that life offers aspiring youth before
them, these young men turned their backs
upon it all and went out to fight that
this Union might be preserved. They
gave up the trades they were going to
learn, the education they were going to
get, the professions they were about to
acquire, the commercial enterprises that
were to enrich them, and became soldiers.
Some of those who went were older and
left families Of little children dependent
on their daily wages, When gold was at
p IT, in the beginning of the fight, they
got Sl1 a month pay, Afterward when
it required 81 So of our paper money to
equal one of gold, the soldiers
pay was Sl3 a month. Boiled down
TO gold basis, this was equal to
less than s. a month, less than half what
the poorest paid laborer in America re
ceived. Thousands of them left their
bones decaying in unnamed graves on
southern battlefelds. The men who staid
at home raised big crops or manufactured
supplies for the army at the highest
prices or lent money to the government.
The soldier got 40 cents on the dollar, the
bOndholder lent 40 cents to the govern
ment and got back dollar, with interest.
This is cold fact. More fortunes were
made during the civil war than at any
other time in this country's history.
Those who made them handed them down
to their children, The soldiers children
sometimes went to the poorhouse, some.
times were supported by charitable
neighbors. When the war was over the
old boys were turned out to catch on
again and pick up living as they might
Hundreds Of them were manned aud halt
and blind Thousands of them had spent
the golden years of their lives standing
up to be shot at for "a month, gold
basis, and the years thus spent they never
have been able to make up again in th'
race for competency. These, with theil
toll stifened hands, their plain clothing
and white hairs-shall the American kiC
glove snobocracy call these men ''pensior
bummers ("

burned to death in the stables of the Will

he threw the weight of his body against

Denying the Beef Trust Story.

CHICAGO, May 2.--Philip D. Armour de-
nies the assertion that a trust in beef ex-
lists, and that it is caused by combina-
tion of the firms of Armour & Co., Nelson

Chicago. at is perfectly astonishing,
said Mr., Armour that this craze is so
widespread, and that there are so many
believers that there is beef trust 1 say
with all sincerity that Armour 81 Co. did
not make any money in the beef business
during the year 1894, and up to the pres
ent the year 1895 has proved equally bad. "

NEW PHASE OF THE CASE.

New York, September 2S.-A special
to the Herald from Atlanta, Ga, says:
The case of John Smith, the broker and
banker. who fed to Mexico and whose
mysterious disappearance created such
a sensation, has taken new turn. Ac-
cording to his own confession, Smith
killed a man on the night Of his disap-
pearance from the city.
He says that on the night in question
ne started for his home, and had in his
pocket S1,700 in money. He lived in
the suburbs, and had just alighted from
his cart, when three men shouted,
Hands up" Smith, according to his
story, pulled a pistol and fired at the
leader twice, both of the shots taking
effect The two other men jumped on
him then and took from him all the
money he had except $12O.
They told him, he says, that he must
leave town Immediately or they would
swear he killed the third man without
provocation. He fed to Mexico.
He wrote back inquiring if there was
a charge of murder against him, and
says that when the reply came he was
down with fever and could not let his
whereabouts be known.

as TO WATER STREET.

To the Editor of the Register:
Sir:-Will you be good enough, II you
can. to inform the citizens Of Wheeling
in general and the people who have 10
use Water street in particular, what the
B. P. w. intend to do for that street
from Fourteenth to Eleventh. street
that everyone knows is used nearly as
much as any in the city-a street that
in forty-seven years about forty-seyen
dollars has been spent in repairing.
At the time the Council first gave the
&C. c. & St. L. r. r. 'all they want
ed" they Othe road were to repair and
make the street a perfectly good thor
ougfare. Since the road has got all and
more than they asked for they have
come to the conclusion that Water
street from Eleventh to Twelfth is good
enough for the citizens and strangers
and they don't intend to spend dollar
to improve it. For five months the
street has been about blOckaded; have
the citizens who are obliged to use the
street no rights. that the p, c., c. & st.
L. people or the Board of Public Works
are bound to respect? 1t certainly
looks that way and we now respectfully
ask. "What are you going to do about
it," There should be a well-laid, solid
brick pavement at least from Twelfth
and Main to Eleventh and Main. There
are pavements of brick on streets and
alleys in this city that are not used in
a year as much as this block is in a
week. The railroad men say they have
nothing more to do with the street. The
B. P. W. say-nothing think pos
sibly to patch it up with a dose of cobble
stones, or probably as there is no big
lob" in it, let it go. Surely a good
mud road would be preferable. 1t is
a disgrace to the city, as the writer has
frequently heard strangers arriving
say. Respectfully,
L. B. S.
