Pioneering.

1t Is quite the custom to speak of the
whites who were the first to go among the
Indian tribes of the west as pioneers OF
civilization" The civilization" was not
always of perfectly civil order. The OFF,
Gals and traders of the old Hudson Bay
company used to claim credit for this
rough pioneering. If we may judge from
the records of the company, their work
was thorough in its way, but the way was
hard one. Some entries in the account
books of the company, made more than
100 years ago, will show how the civiliz-
ing was being done:
"Dec. 81, 1895. Served out q quart Of
rum per man. the evening spent in inno-
cent mirth and jollity.
"Jan. /, 1896 All the Indians drunk
about the place; great trouble in keeping
order"
Two entries of an earlier date and from
a station still farther north show what
were the amenities of intercourse between
the "civilized" and savage races when
questions of right and justice were in the
way of settlement. The first entry reads:
1.-THE company's cook, lad of 10, hav-
ing been carried off by the Esquimaux,
three out of party of six passing Esqui-
maux were seized as hostages until the
return of the boy"
Five years later another brief entry
shows how this transaction was finally
closed:
Had q row with the three Esquimaux
detained. They were shot and their ears
picked in rum and sent on to their tribe
to show them what had happened. -

contest for the presidency had all the
appearance of a close struggle h re-

result could not be determined, owing

ing of lccal differences in some of the
state delegations. The result of the
second ballot was not announced be-
cause Mr.. Crawford's opponents all
nous before the figures were added up.
The only candidate feared by the
friends of Crawford was Frederick w.
F1eitZ, of Pennsylvania. The Illinois
delegation, who wanted the next con-
vention held in Chicago, combined with
Fleitz through "a steering committee
composed of Governor Tanner and four
others but the attempt at the unit rule
methods by the Illionisans was frowned
upon and the men from Illinois were
the only mes who enjoyed the distinc-
ton of being called upon to vote each
separately for himself. A. NJ. Higgins,
Of Indiana, was third in the race for
president.
According to the indications, NJ. ].
Bowling, Of Minnesota, will tomorrow
be reelected as secretary, which will
complete the leading slate Of Craw-
ford, Bowling, and Omaha for the next
convention. The committee On time

even those living at BaybOro; that
many persons living in Craven county
are included; that papers in the latter
cases were never served, but thrown
under a table; that all this was done
to fleece the tax payers; that there is
no explanation of how the state was
charged $3.50 fees in each case, when
h sheriff's fee is only 60 cents.
