BOOMERS DETERMINED.
Government Given Fair Warning to
Stand From Under.

WICHITA Kan, Dec. 1.--Capt.a e.
L. Hews, the boomer who claims to
have enrolled in Wichita 800 recruits
to the sooner" army, with which he
hopes to invade the Wichita noun
tain country within the Kiowa and
Comanche Indian reservation in Ok
lahoma territory, left here today for
the Oklahoma territory, where he
will continue his recruiting. Twenty
five men with nine wagons accom-
panied him.
Today. as commander chief" Of
the sooner" army, Hews addressed
letter to Secretary Bliss, in which he
asserts that there is no desire on the
part of himself or his men to act in
defiance Of the law or the principles
of justice, but "by the memory of
George Washington, sir" he adds,
1--WE have the right of free-born Amer
lean citizens to expect consideration
from you and all other servants of
the people" The boomer called upon
the secretary of interior to state
terms on which he forbids the would
be prospectors from operating in the
Wichita mountain country under the
act of congress approved May 10, 1872.
He adds: I'VE are in earnest, sir, and
will stand no tri1ing or arbitrary
treatment by the Indian agents and
government officials
1t is supposed that the boomers are
determined to invade the reservation
and today the boomer chief declared
that his army would be ready to move
by the middle of the month.

vations in Kansas, there are ABOUT

be a subject of contention in the tu-
ture. and there seems to be a growing

dian trader like the old post trader
should go: the government should own
it's own stores.
Agent Cramsie, at the Standing
Rock agency, in North Dakota, charges
that. Notwithstanding the state prom
hilton law, county or town officials
have never made any EFFORT TO apate
the sale of liquor in EmmOns county,
and that six or eight blind pigs" are
running wide open in Winona, N D.
Mai. A. E. Woodson, of the Cheyenne

.The mOther-in-law is much in eVl-
6ance among these people. She makes
herself a holy terror unless the fam
iI1 affairs are conducted according to
her ideas. Much of the agents time
is occupied in the settlement OF famliy

hand and wife whose troubles nave
heen of sufficient gravity to cause d
eenaration. His powers of persuasion

NEW TARIFFS ARRIVE.
Jobbers Little Interested In Trans
continent Rate Sheet.

Traffic officials of the transconti-
mental lines in st. Paul yesterday re-
Ceived from Secretary Countiss, at Chi
cago, copies of the rather bulky west
bound tariff, naming The amended c,as5
and commodity rates, over which the
members Of the TranscOntinental
Freight bureau labored so long and
patiently.
The amended tariff, thorough un-
deratanding of which is only possible
with the freight men themselves or the
traditional Philadelphia lawyer, gives
the figures on West-bound traffic, in
Guiding every conceivable article, ar
TcNged alphabetically. from apples to
S&A', but a comparison with the tariff
nv in effect shows that advances
amounting to from to Is per cent have
been made on all iron and steel articles
Skipped west from Chicago. In this
list, which covers nearly everything
from angles to Jokes for cable tracks,
the rates have been put up slightly, eff

officials explain that the advance is not

SCENES OF THE EARLY DAYS IN
CALIFORNIA WILL BE SUR
PASSED.
CROWDS OFF FOR KLoNDIKE.
REPORT ON NEW GOLD FIELDS BY
THE CONSUL AT VIC
TORIA.
Efforts to Divert Travel and Pur-
cheses to the Profit of the
Dominion.

WASHINGTON, Dec. l. Consul
Smith, at Victoria, in report to the
state department, discusses the subject
OF the Klondike gold fields The ad-
vices received at Victoria, he says, in
dictate that the rush in '49 to California
and later to South Africa will be
eclipsed by the gold seekers headed for
the Yukon in the early months of 1898.
Agents from England have been at
Victoria making arrangements for 5000
or 1900 gold seekers. Merchants there
have secured great supplies, and the
transportation companies have made
arrangements sufficient to make daily
lines between that port and Dyea,
Skaguay and Fort Wrangle The Ca
madam authorities have made every
possible arrangement for an all-Cana-
dian route to the gold fields and are
trying to make it to the interest of
miners to purchase their outfits in
Canada. This is to be done through
tariff laws.
Hon. Clifford Sifton, the Canadian
minister of the interior, made a trip
to the Northwest recently, and in an
address intimated that the hundred
pounds exemption now allowed by the
Canadian government to the miners
would be abrogated by the 1st of jan
uary, and that probably everything not
bought in Canada would have to pay
duty. He declined to give any assur-
ance that the tax on mining would be
reduced or the alternate claim out
rage" be alleviated.
The consul goes TO some extent into
a description of the methods of mining
in Alaska, gathered from people who
have returned from there. One man
told him that he regarded Alaska as
a more profitable place for miners to
go than to Canada, owing to the excess
sive royalty charged by the Dominion
government, which it seems there is no
expectation Of having repealed. The
Klondike stratum runs in the direction
Of Alaska, and those men who have
interest in mines there are doing as
we'll as those in Canada.

PURCHASE OF STOCK
GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY EN-
, PLOYES TAKE ADVANTAGE OF
THE ROADS OFFER
TO BECOME STOCKHOLDERS.
president sTICKNEY WELL
PLEASED WITH THE ACTION
OF THE MEN.
THAT RECENT GALVESTON VISIT.
Rcport OF Purchase of Property In
minneapolis Was Somewhat
Exaggerated.

Employees of the Chicago Great West
ern railway have availed themselves Of
the offer recently made by the officers
of the company and purchased it's stock
TO the amount of something like $26,
900 or $27, 900, most of which is paid
up. They are therefore stockholders of
the road. and, if the theory Of the Of
ficers : correct, more interested in the
workings and general success of the
system. The plan was only preached
recently. and President Sticllney, in
commenting on the matter, expressed
himself as pleased that the matter had
been 50 well received by the men work
ing for the road. Spe ating of the re-
cent "trip made by some of the officers
of the company to Galveston, the Great
Western president urged that the jaunt
was taken half as a pleasure trip and
parity because it was said the country
down there was well supplied with pine
timber.
The point is" Mr.. Stickney eX-
planes that Galveston is about as
far away from st. Paul as New York
is, and also as far away as Newport
News is from, here. Now, if at Cal
weston they have pine or other prod
ucts which we need and can use and
if we have wheat or corn or flour or
other stuff they need, it might be part
of a good policy to make such arrange
ments as would facilitate an exchange
of these commodities without neces-
earily going through Chicago. AS l I'M
derstand it, some of our officials, while
away on a sort of pleasure trip, did
visit Galveston as being a likely place
and naturally took in the situation, be-
ing always on the lookout for any way
to leeitimately increase the business of
the company"
MIR. Stickney took occasion to pune
ture the tale that his company had
just purchased a large bit of land near
the Minneapolis depot upon which it
was the intention to erect a large hotel
Mr. Stickney adds that the only foun-
dation for such a story lies in the fact
that the company did purchase forty
foot tract near the Minneapolis station
recently which land will be used to
increase the facilities of that place.

"murphies" have brought, the farmers
who were fortunate in having any
quantity of them have been shipping
them steadily, the movement being
heavier than for several years, and at
better prices. The crop in this section,
which includes Isanti and Chisago
counties, is estimated at something like
$500 carloads, over half Of which has
already been dispatched, mostly to
Southern Illinois points, although not
a few hundred cars of the crop have
found their way to New England
points. Last year potatoes brought IL
cents a bushel, as against 4S cents at
present. The horizontal advance OF
three cents hundred pounds, which
was made Sept 1, amounted to the
restoration of the rates to the old basis,
which was deserted when prices were
so low that the farmers did not take
the trouble to dig up their tubers. The
movement Of potatoes to Missouri river
points has been light, owing to the ad-
vantage in rates enjoyed by the people
in the Colorado territory.

Banker Spalding made a stubborn

masters in chancery. several times, he
twice stood trial on the charge of IL
legally diverting funds tntrusted to his

not guilty, but on the second trial,
which was on different count, the
jury brought in an adverse decision.
