and were released.
Aguinaldo has occasionally left Gen Mac
Arthur's house, his present place of con-
hnement. but he has never left the premises,
although he is at liberty to do so if accom-
panied by an officer. The reason assigned is
that be fears assassination at the hands OF the
partisans of the late Gen Luga.
Gen Chafiee has refused the request for the
release of the prisoners on the island of
Guam. He considers that their release
would not be safe until surrender or capture
OF Malvar and Lukban, and he also believes
that the friends of the prisoners, desiring
their release, will use their influence to bring
about the surrender of the insurgent leaders
named.
Gen Frederick Funston, who has been in
the hospital suffering from appendicitis for
about a week, has undergone a successful
operation.

President Mckinley has refused
to authorize the payment Of S250,0OO
to the Sioux Sisseton Indians of
South Dakota in a lump sum as pro
yided by congress. The Indian bur
eau had made all arrangements for
the payment Of the money while the
matter was pending awaiting the
presidents decision. This IS the bill
passed by congress which gave the
president authority to pay all of the
annuities thpt are due these Indians
in one lump sum, and thus dispose
Of annual interest payments. The
bin was championed by Pettigrew
during the first session af the last
congress. After it was passed and
the money was forthcoming, Petit,
grew charged that Senator Hanna
was responsible for the delay and ii
was claimed that payments were con
tingent upon the of the
republican ticket in South Dakota,
and the defeat of Pettigrew. These
charges We're investigated and proven
to be nothing but Pettigrew cam
paign falsehoods. President McKin-
ley takes the position that it would
not be wise to pay this money to the
Indians at once. 1t is further stated
hat a bad state of affairs exists on
the reservation, and that it would
not be for the best interests of the
Indians to be paid any consider able
amount. The action of the presi,
dent in this matter viii be endorsed
by all people in touch with the stu
alton on the reservation, save a few
spectators who have made loans tc
the Indians and looked to this
appropriation for payment.

Reorganize State Guard.

Sioux Falls Dispatch, in Minneapolis Tribune.
The war with Spain and the Philip
pine tnsurrection played havoc with the
National Guard of south Dakota, which
is now being completely r~eorganized
under an act recently. passed by the
state legislature. When war with Spain
was declared the National Guard of the
state was almost completely merged into
the First regiment, South Dakota volun-
teers, which was sent to the Philippines.
In pitched battles with the Fillipin o
insurgents Immediately after the com
mencement Of hostiIities the regiment
performed gallant service and made a
record which added glory to the state
and nation, and gave additional proof of
the invincibility Of American troops.
The valiant work done Shy the South
Dakota boys during the first few weeks
of active campaigning did much to dis
abuse the minds of the insurgents of the
belief that one Filipino was the equal of
half a dozen or more Americans, and
materially aided in reducing the contest
to a purely guerrilla plane.
After the return of the regimentto the
state no efforts were Immediately made
to efec: the reorganization of the South
Dakota National Guard. This vas
largely due TO the failure of the legis-
lature two years ago 20 make any appro-
priation for the purpose of maintainin g
such an organization.
During the last session, however.
several influential veterans of the First
regiment South Dakota volunteers, lad

ested themselves in the passage of a
measure which would authorize and
encourage the reorganization of the
National Guard of the state. A
