saddles, pack saddles, guns, wearing
apparel and grub was contiscated by
the officers, but having no way of
packing it the mostof it was burned.
Much to the chagrin of the officers
twelve head of the SH horses were
found next morning, the thieves
evidently not deeming it safe to
further attempt the getting away
with them. The camp outfit was
gone, however, although it would
not have been had there been any
idea that the horses were in such
close proximity. The posse again
took the trail in the morning which
doubled back for twenty miles but
it followed into a horse range and
vas lest and after it had been fol
lowed nearly three hundred miles in
all it had to be given up.
Mr.. Smith is Of the opinion that
the gang were headed 'or the Great
Northern railway with the intention
Of holding up the tram. In the
bunch of SH horses three of the best
ones-and they were all good saddle
horses-had not. been rode, in ali
probability being saved TO escape ON
when they were wanted. Just
where the gang went is unknown,
but the suppo>i'ion is that they are
thoroughly acquainted with the 'ad
lands anI thought to entice tn Of
ficers to follow when they would
have had them ut their mercy
The pursuing party were sub
jected to much annoyance. The
weather was bad and they were
wholly unprepared to meet eight
inches Of snow. On the 3rd, they
got lost and not until nearly mid
night did they find shelter and then
at a sheep camp. Three days before
running unto the men they discard
ed their pack horses, carrying what
food they could in their saddle
pockets. Two quilts and a tarpau-
lin, until the capture OF the outlaws
camp outfit, cons ituted their bedd-
ing and storming every day. 1t
was surely a hard trip and one that
will not 500 be forgotten by those
who took part in it

Red Clouds Plea,

Omaha World Herald: The In
dams at Pine Ridge agency are
much incensed at the government
over the building of a barbed wire
fence across the north boundary of
the reservation. This protest
against what seems a step toward
advanced civilization would not
elicit much sympathy:from the public
we're it OF for the extenuating cir
cumstances. The mere fact of build
lug a fence is not even of passing
moment to the tribes interested.
The fact that it is to extend over a
line sixty miles long and is to cost
$500 per mile would not cause even
aripple of interest in the humdrum
monotony of tepee life we're it not
for the intention of the present
administration to pay the contractor
vhe neat little sum Of $4,000 out of
funds belonging to the Indians and
held in trust b, Uncle Sam.
Realizing that a rank injustice is
about to be done them and believing
that such a out lay Of money is IN
necessary and without warrant of
business the tribal councils have
met and indicted a memorial to con
gre>s upon this, to them, very i'm
portant matter. They have not
stopped at II formal protest, but
have kept;pouring resolution after

summit to bring some supplies
which were still there, but when
we got within two miles Of there
had to turn back. The snow
had fallen two and half feet up
there during the night, and filled
the trail as fast as our party,
consisting of about 80, could
break it. There was no fresh
snow until we got within about
half mile of where the snow
was two feet deep.
All of the boys are well and
healthy. AS soon as the snow
commences to go we will have to
lie idle for some time.

the heroic sacrifices you made in defense Of the
flag and in the preservation of the Union. The
conditions to-day are changed but the cause is the
cause of humanity and appeals to the sympathy

FORE be relegated to the rear in this struggle with
foreign foe. Let us publicly and in private ex-
press our endorsement of our comrade, President
Mckinley. Let us attend, as far possible, all
public meetings held for the purpose of securing
volunteers, and thus by every means at our COM

went forth to conquest in 81.
