The Redfleld Encampment.

Col. E. f. Clough, of Deadwood, pres
ident of the board Of commissioners of
the South Dakota Soldiers Home at
Hot Springs, who returned home on
Tuesday from the annual meeting of
the board, and the G. A. r. encamp..
ment, imparts the following information
in relation to the proceedings of the
latter to the Pionesf-Times T.
The session of the Grand Army en-
campmsnt that was held at Redfietd
last week was quite largely attended,
and was a very interesting meeting.
Subjects germane to the Grand Army
were carefully considered and earnest
action taken. Among the matters that
awakened much interest was how to re-
lieve the old soldiers from the care and
labor incident to the observance of
Memorial Day. a resolution was adopt.
ed instructing the department COM
mander to invite civil and municipal
authorities to accept the responsibility
The death rate was exceedingly low for
the age of the veterans.
The Woman's Relief Corps was in
session at the same time which added
to the attractiveness of the occasion
This order is prosperine and is gaining
vigorous hold among the patriotic
women in the state.
The Sons Of Veterans had not made
much of a growth until about encamp-
ment time, when six posts were re-
ported as being about ready to muster.

I,llh ha and McK1nlaH

Geo. T. Angel, Of Boston, very peril
nently illustrates President Mckinley s
situation in the matter Of deciding as to
what would be the most advisable
step to take in relation to Cuba, in the
following story:
Many years ago when our good friend
John j. Clarke was mayor of Tour then
sister city"] Roxbury, the fire depart
ment of that city la very different one
from that which now exists since Rox-
bury became part of Bostonl sent in
to the mayor a demand for increased
pay, and he called in City Treasurer
dudley whom lots Of the older citizens
of Boston well remember for consulta-
ton. Mr.. Dudley said in substance, "It
can't be done-the citizens are taxed
now almost to death and they won't
stand it." Very WELL" said the mayor,
"then we won't grant it," "Well, /
don't know about that" said Dudley,
IF we don't grant these firemen will be
raising Cain all over tho city; they'll
be setting fires" "Well," said the
mavor, then perhaps we must grant
it," "No." said Dudley, "it can't be
done" "Well, now, Mr.. Dudley" said
the mayor, what would you advise me
to do" "Well," replied Mr.. Dudley, "if
| were in your place l think l would
carefully consider the whole question
and then do the beet 1 could under the
circumstances And we think that is
just about the condition that President
Mckinley has been in in regard to
Cuba. 1t should be added to this story
that sometime afterwards Dudley, who
was bachelor and gotten to be quit e
an elderly gentleman, concluded to get
married, and the city government pre-
sented him with some handsome token
of their respect and appointed Mayor
Clarke to make the presentation. In
his address he expressed his deep regret
that Mr. Dudley had postponed his
marriage SO long, but he hoped he chad
carefully considered the matter" and
would endaavor in every way to pro-
mote the happiness Of his home by
doing the best he could under the cir
cumstances."

Salaries Changed

Changes in the salaries of ofpostmasters
in Iowa, South Dakota and Nebraska,
with a classification of number u
cities in each state, have been as
nounced, to take effect July lst. Tee
following changes in the Black Hills are
noted: Deadwood, increased from
$4,000 to $4,000; Lead, increased from
Sl,70O to Sl,So0; Hot Springs, decreased
from $1,000 to $500; Rapid City, de-
creased from 81, 700 to l,60O.
While we would haye been better
pleased to chronicle an increase in the
salary of the Custer postmaster, we are
nevertheless thankful that, under the
stress of hard times, the office has nobly
held its own.

just Like Mckinley.

An unexpected incident of President
McKinley's southern visit developed
this afternoon, says an Ashville North
Carolina, dispatch of the 1th inst, when
it became known to the newspaper men
accompanying the party thatpermission
to enter Baltimore house, George w.
Vanderbilt's splendid mansion, had
been refused to them, while extended
to other members of the party. In the
absence of both Mr.. Vanderbilt and his
representative the estate is governed by
E. j. Harding. said to DO an Englishman
by birth.
When waited on by the local COM
mittee of arrangements a day or two
ago for permission for the president and
party to enter Baltimore house he
objected strongly to receiving any mem
bers other than the president and his
cabinet and the ladies with them. So
the matter rested till today, when the
president arrived, and j. Addison Por-
ter, his secretary, was told of the incid-
ent. Mr.. Harding was called up on the
telephone by Mr.. Porter and asked if it
were true that newspaper men would
not be admitted to the mansion. Por-
ter was told that it was and he then in
formed Mr.. Harding that the president
considered that the newspaper men
were his invited guests on the trip and
that they were as much a contingent of
the party as members of the cabinet,
and further more that the psesident had
authorized him to say that ifthe ne VS.
paper men were barred from the man
sion he would not step his foot inside
the estate. This brought things to q
crisis and Mr.. Harding capitulsted with
the best grace possible and the news
paper men were admitted to the man.
sion On the same footing as the presi.
dent and his cabinet.

erals Office, Pierre, June IL, 1897

ment OF the South Dakota National

campment. said waivers to be made in
writing and filed with the captains, who
will turn them over to the camp ad-
iutant.
The Chicago, Milwaukee and st. Paul

The gain in business continues, says
Dun's Review, not without fluctuation
and at the best moderate, but yet dis
tinct. 1t is still in quantities rather
than prices. although in some branches
an advance in prices appear, but on the
whole the number of hands employed,
the volume of new orders, and tho
amount of work done, are slowly in
creasing. Prospect Of good crops OF
wheat and cotton help, growing demand
from dealers whose stocks are gradually
gaining consumption depete also helps,
and in the money and exchange market
large buying and American securities
has an influence. Foreign purchases of
stocks exceeded sales for the week by
about $4,000 shares, and meanwhile
commercial bills against products to be
moved hereafter are larger than the
market will take. The outgo of gold
means only that price sufficient to
cover loss by shipment is paid, and the
slackened call for commercial loans this
week is but evidence that preparations

terial against future operations nave

facturers. Money coming hither from
the west even as late as Jane 10, with
great crops near at hand, indicate q
healthy condition at the west.

Brown Wants to Die.

Charlie Brown, colored, whose very
name is repulsive to this community
by reason of his awful crime of muir.
dering Mrs. Stone, says he is willing to
die on the gallows. He says he is
guilty and ought to be hanged. He
does not appear to fear death but is
calmly awaiting the day when his
earthly career will end. On Monday
he said to his guard, "Well, this is the
l4th and a month from today will be
the end of NE. I'm better off than you
fellows, for l know when I'ye got to
60" Brown will talk all the time if he
has any one to talk with and he speaks
freely about his awful crime as though
it was matter of no great importance.
He eats and sleeps well and derives q
good deal of comfort and satisfaction
from the frequent calls of Father Burke,
his spiritual adviser.
1t mas been reported that Sheriff
Plunkett has invited Col. Stone, hus-
band of Browns victim, to spring the
trap that shall drop the condemned
man into eternity, and that Mr.. Stone
had consented to do 30. Sheriff Punk
EFT informs the writer that he has not
extended such an invitation. He has
heard some talk upon the subject en-
anating from disinterested parties, but
that is all. He is not sure that he has
the power to do such thing and has
had no intimation from Mr. stone that
he would consent to do it. Sheriff
Plunkett is planning the scaffold and
enclosure and will probably put men at
work at it in short time.-Pioneer-
Times.

The Brotherhood of South Sea col
onists, that left San Francisco on board
the brig Percy Edwards some time ago
to search the south seas for an adam
less Eden" are reported to have met
with Indifferent success, the glad hand
of the NATIVES of the island visited being
persistently withheld. Their cruise
thus far is reported as having been a
most dismal failure, their early Utopian
dreams haying been ruthlessly dispelled
by a most pronounced desire on the
part of the isolated islanders to be let
alone-and the "Adamless Eden," SO
fondly pictured, proves to be a misty
mith. The disappointed wopld-be
colonists will dismiss all hope of the
establishment of new empire, and re-
turn to civilization smothered in a sea
of sadness but, doubtless, much wiser
than they were before they set sail for
the scene of their mission amid the sun
lit islands of the south seas.

Attempted Murder at Ralmoral

Balmoral was the scene of an attempted
murder last night about eight o'clock
when John Mathis shot twice at N
Fish, neither shot taking effect. Mathis
and Fish were formerly in the saloon
business together. The saloon was de-
stroyed by fire few nights ago and
their trouble last night arose from dis.
pute over the settlement of the damage
They were attempting to agree upon the
loss to each one from the fire. One
claimed one thing, the other another
and an alteration arose which resulted
in Mathis procuring a fire arm and
shooting at his former partner. Fish
escaped unharmed and his former
partner was placed under arrest.-Lead
Call.

Press reports would seem to indicate
that w. ]. Bryan was we'll received up
on his recent Canadian visit, where
large audiences are said to have treated
him with full measure Of courtesy and
cordiality, but an Ottowa correspondent
of the Springfield Republican says of
the welcome accorded him. that it was
not because the people believe in his
financial doctrines, but simply because
he was something of curiosity, with a
rather interesting record. This cores
pondent further says that Mr.. Bryan
was disappointing as speaker, not be
ing up to the expectations Of MANY who
had heard 30 much about the "boy
orator." and that in diction, in style, in
clearness of expression. in all that per-
tanned to the use of good sound English,
he was far below the standard of public
speaking heard from their own parlia.
msntary leaders; and az for his argu
ment, it was felt that he was better able
to obscure question in haze of plaus-
ible generalities than to lead his hearers
up to clear and well established con-
illusions.

The Cheyenne and Arapahoe Indians
are wrought up, says late Oklahoma
dispatch, over the new law which goes
into effect July relating to polygamy.
After that time each of the forty Chey-
enne Indians who has more than one
wife will have to choose ole Of two Of
the wives he has and the other wives
must go back to their relatives. The
interest between the squaws, who have
become enlightened to their situation,
has become intense. Every squaw who
wants to remain with her husband is
doing her best to please him, so that
she will be the lucky wife. There are
forty of these polygamists. and in all
they have over 100 squaws.

It now looks very probable that no

1t now looks very probable that no
immediate action will be taken by the
government relating to Cuba. A Wash
ington special of recent date says: at
can be unequivocally stated as result
of today's cabinet meeting that no i'm
portant action relating to Cuba will be
taken till the new minister to Madrid
has been chosen and is at his post.
This means some weeks must elapse
before any vital step can be taken in
the matter of the Cuban situation. The
president is apparently no nearer a
solution of the problem of securing a
satisfactory man for the Spanish min
istry than heretofore. The delay is
somewhat vexatious to the admins
tration, which is anxious to begin ne
gotiations looking to the amslioration
Of the condition of affairs in Cuba as
speedily as possible"
