Montgomery, Ala, Dec. 1S.-The
president and his party were given a
magnificent welcome in the Confeder-
acy's first capital yesterday. The
presidents train was escorted from
Atlanta to Tuskogee and hence here
by the states assembly, Gov. Johnson.
Chief Justice Mcclellan and a party OF
ladies. At the union station the presi-
dental party was met by the govern
ment, the committees from the assem-
bly,, the mayor and city council and
the commercial and industrial associa-
lions. The whole party was then
AIKEN in carriages through the leading
business and residence streets TO the
old Confederate capitol. The entire
route was ablaze with national colors,
while tremendous crowds lined the
streets as far as the eye could reach.
When Gov. Johnston escorted Mr.. Nc
Kinley into the hall there was a tre-
mendous demonstration. Gov. John
ston made a brief speech, in which he
took occasion to say that Alabama
was back in the Union to stay, and
that she welcomed the president OF the
reunited country to the historic spot.
They Punctured HIS Remarks.
The audience constantly punctured
the presidents remarks with the Wild
est demonstrations OF applause, esDe-
cfally his tributes to Lieut.. HobSon's
mother and Gen. Wheeler's daughter.
As 500 as he had finished the gov
ernor started to escort the president
away for a reception at his own home,
but the audience would not have it.
They called for others of the party to
speak.
The other speakers emphasized the
power Of the Spanish was in restoring
the harmony and cordiality between
the different sections. Secretary Long
was especially well received, as he
called attention to the fact that in adj
dition toWheeler and Hobson there was
another ALBANIAN who had con.
tributed a vast deal to the success of
the wal in his important work OF help
ing the navy, Hilary A. Herbert of
Montgomery. After the speeches the
presidential party went to the gov
ernor's Office, where a public reception
was held for half an hour. He next
met the colored people of the city at
Cid Ship church, where a great thong
received him enthusiastically. He
made a short but forcible speech. The
party was conveyed back to the train
at $50 o'clock, and, amid the roar OF
cannon, the president left for Savan-
nah.

Nicholas had delegated him to draw
closer the tries of friendship binding

THAT GREAT FENCE.
Opposition of the Indians Threats
Has Disappeared.


Chamberlain, S. D.-Information re-
Gently received from Pine Ridge Agen-
CIV states that the objections On the
part of the Indians to the construction
of the great government fence along
the northern and western boundary or
the reservation was greatly lessened
by communicating to the Indians the
following, received by Acting Agent
Clamp from the Indian bureau in
Washington:
I'm regard to the idea of fencing the
northern boundary of the reservation,
/ will advise you that 1t is not the in
tention Of this office to use the interest
money for such purpose, and the build
ing of the fence will not decrease the
per capita payment. The cost OF aid
fence is to be paid from Support OF
Sioux of Different Tribes, Beneficial
Objects"
Probably not more than ~one-fourth
of the Indians on the reservation at
any time objected to the fence; the
opposition being confined, so far as
known. to Indians living In districts
remote from the northern boundary
line. and, therefore, not interested in
the fence. As evidence of the good
will of the Indians, they hauled from
railroad points to the line OF fence all
Of the material, amounting TO more
than 100 tons, and furnished more
than 10000 cedar posts, distributing
them likewise along the line, all ut
their own cost and without any pay
whatever. The opposition to the fence
has entirely ceased, and apparently
tile best Of feeling exists among the
Pine Ridge Indians.
