FRIDAY, JULY IA, 1899.
OUR COUNTRY: First. Last and Forever.

WHEN one recalls how great was
the excitement which followed the
first vague and unauthenticated
stories of gold discoveriesin the Klon-
dixie country, it seems remarkable, in
deed, that almost no attention at all
is paid to the indubitable evidence of
the regions wealth that it is now pre-
sented daily by returning miners.
Everybody knows at present what
two years ago was only rumored-
that gold by the horseload lies not
deeply buried by the great northern
river, and yet there is no wild rush of
fortune hunters, and the occasional
short paragraphs into which the
papers compress the successes and
failures of individual miners are all
that the public demands. The fact
is that the Klondike was robbed of
its boom by the war with Spain,
and its chance of being a sensation
was then cut off, prematurely and
forever. This was probably fortu-
nate for Alaska, and certainly fortu-
nate for hundreds of men of small
physical and financial resources who
would have been carried north if the
wild rush had continued, but who
can easily resist such temptations as
the new fields, now thoroughly un-
derstood, continue to present.

INDIANS RESIST DEPUTIES.

Overpowered by Numbers. the Ohcers
Retire For Reinforcements.
Edgemont, S. D., July 14.-Swift
Bear, Sioux Indian, and eight wagons
with several bucks resisted arrest on
Buck creek, Wyoming, for killing
game contrary to law. Amos DEM
ming, deputy sheriff of Converse
county, and posse left Lusk on We'd
nesday with warrants for the arrest
of the Indians, and overlook them at
Buck creek yesterday morning. After
reading the warrants the Indians re-
fused to go with the sheriffs and drew
line, and told him IL he crossed the
line there would be war, and backed 1t
up with their Winchesters. There was
moment of suspense, the deputies be-
ing clearly out of it, as the Indians
were decidedly in the majority. Being
outnumbered, the sheriff went to
Bdgemont to get help and papers for
the arrest of the Indians in South Da-
kota, as they crossed the line. Deputy
Sheriff George Miller, of Edgemont,
went out with them this morning with
an increased force.
Sheriff Demming telegraphed the In
dian agent at Pine Ridge to have d
force of Indian police go out to inter
cept the Indians II they got away from
the Edgemont and Wyoming posse,
and it is expected that the Indians will
be overtaken somewhere near the
agency. The Indians had travelled over
60 miles yesterday, but their ponies are
still seemingly as fresh as ever, al
though the deputies are certain that
they are nearly played out The In
dians went through the sheep herd of
L. S. Tubbs last evening and stole all
the herders bedding and food. Will
lam Brack lost everything he had.

Chandler on Trusts.

Senator Chandler, of New Hamp-
shire, has been talking to the news
papers on Havemeyer, the Sugar
King, and on trusts in general. The
Senator is always practical and level
headed in what he says and does. He
is probably the only Republican mem
Der of the Senate who has strained
relations at the White House.
He designates HaYemeyer as a plu-
tocratic Democrat, who is willing that
the Republican party shall remain in
power, provided it protects the
trusts. His discourse before the In
dustrial Commission, in which he put
forth the assertion that "a protective
tariff is the mother of trusts" was
intended, of course, as a threat
against the Republican party. IF
you don't protect trusts, especially
the Sugar Trust, we will destroy the
tariff" That threat will not scare
the Republican party.
Havemeyer is a multi-millionaire
Democrat who cannot influence votes
by his money. The Republican party,
says Chandler, is not afraid that
party capital can be made against the
tariff on account of trusts. These
exists everywhere, all over the world,
in these latter days-in free trade as
we'll as in tariff countries. He says:
"The Republican doctrine, as it will
be enunciated at the next National
Convention, which will renominate
Mr.. Mckinley, is that it is unneces-
sary to destroy any industry in this
country in order to restrain trusts
We want home industries and we
don't want trusts In order to main
tain the home industries we must
have high tariff duties against the
cheap labor and the cheap products
of foreign countries. The mainten-
ance of the tariff as an American
doctrine was settled beyond perad-
venture by the election of Mckinley
In 1896 and the enactment of the
Dingley bill. We are not going to
destroy the tariff as a means of
checking trusts"
Trusts can be checked easily and
absolutely il the people and their
legislatures and Congresses wish to
do it by suitable laws. These huge
and dangerous corporations can only
be created by state legislatures, and
the same legislatures which create
them can destroy them, or limit theil
functions Congress can control OF
destroy" says the Senator, trans
portation trusts and some others, and
state legislatures can do the rest
Therefore, repeat that there is moi
the slightest need of repeating the
tariff duties which protect industries
I'm order to destroy trusts in the pro
duct of those industries, POpulistiC
Democrats have raised this hue and
cry against them because they would
like to destroy the tariff and trusts
both. Mr. Havemeyer wants tC
maintain trusts and threatens to de
stroy the tariff sincerely, but only be
cause he wishes to force the Republi
can party to maintain trusts, which
it will not do
"Trusts, " said the Senator, in con
clusion, ''will not be political issue
because both parties will denounc'
rthem. 1t will remain for the voter

Colorado's Industrial Conditions.

COlOfauO's lnuusJFlHl COnulUlOnSs
Denver, July 14.-Deputy State La
Dor Commissioner Smith was examined
yesterday regarding industrial condi-
tion in Colorado by the subcommittee
on mining of the United States indus
trial commission. He declared that the
economic effects of strikes on society
at large were good, in spite Of the suf-
ferings entailed but also expressed the
opinion that the intelligent use Of the
ballot is better than strikes for i'm
mediate results. Mr.. Smith considered
the eight hour law just, and favored
compulsory arbitration. He said that
on an average 25 per cent of the Ia
boring people in Colorado were idle
all the time, and yet higher wages
were paid there than in any other
state. Mr.. Lee, state commissioner Of
metaliferous mines, was very severe
in his denunciation of labor agitators.
