TIE NATIONAL n! [ |! !! !! HOLIDAY !: Of
;IH4lE TIL! gG!Hs!l.P gG!Hs!l.PP''ENI,&l Of
MINNESOTA


Thirty years ago the -ltAth1 OF
this month, several hundred In
.dians gathered at the Episcopal
Church at this village, and for the
frat time celebrated the annivers-
ary of the settlement of the In
dians on this reservation.
Those who suggested the cele=
bration, Rev. J. j. Enmegahbow
and others, and who took an active
part in making it a pleasant and
successful event, today lie silently,
with up turned faces, in the een1e-
taries of the Episcopal ,and Catho-
licchurches, awaiting the day when
the final call will be made 1t is.a
remarkable coincidence the Rev.
Enemegahbow's funeral took place
last year on the, anniversary Of the
settlement of this reservation, and
when the regular celebration
which he had inaugerated twenty
nine years previously, was taking
place
Since the first celebration took
place, there has not been a break
i'm the observance of the 14th of
June. The first celebration occu-
pied but three hours, and there
were present not exceeding three
hundred persons; and this year it
will occupy two days with the
probability of ten thousand
persons being present. The grow
ing interest in what we term the
national holiday of our tribe, is
not confined to the tribe, but hun
dreds of our white neighbors in
the towns and on the farms sur
rounding this reservation, haye
been coming here every year for
several years past, and have not
only aided us in making the oc-
.casions pleasant by their presence,
but have also donated liberaily to.
wards helping us feed the large
number of visiting Sioux and
Chippewas from other reserva.
tions who have come and joined IL,
these celebrations.
!, Although our anniversary cele.
bration is now recognized as q
permanent institution, we have no
permanent organization, and those
who have taken charge Of the
celebrations have usually been
selected just prior to the 18th of
June, and therefore could not al
ways do justice to. the occasions
in the fulfillment of their duties.
1t has been frequently suggested
during the past two weeks, that
officers should be selected during
this celebration, who will take
charge of the celebration next
year, and an organization per-
fected that will be permanent.

DEMAND THEIR MONEY
SITUATION CRITICAL AT THE CANADIAN 500.
Mob Smashes Windows and Is Stayed Only by Q Company of Militia Reinforcement Urgently
 Needed by Soldiers.

Saulte Ste Marie, Mich., Sept. 2S.-To- night the situation in the Canadian Soo which has been the scene of serious riot ing by the discharged employees of the Consolidated Lake Superior Company, all day, is very grave.
 No reinforcements of militia have ar rived. and the only defense against the mob which grows hourly is Q more or less !demoralixed police department and a small company of militiamen. An as- sault upon the office building by the mob early this afternoon before the arrival on the ground of troops, was successful, and a mass of frenzied rioters secured possession of the ground floor of the building destroying everything movable that came in their path.
 A crowd of the office stan with drawn revolvers prevented their gaining access to the upper floors of the building. Ev- cry window and door in the building was smashed in. The arrival of the troops on the grounds armed with ball cartridges about 2 o'clock served to restore some semblance of order. The rioters then con- tended themselves with throwing stones at the building and hurling invectives at the soldiers, who established a dead line" and prevented any approach toward the building by any of the rioters The greatest number of the mob are of ignor- ant Italians, Films, Norwegians and Frenchmen. the latter perhaps the hard est of all to handle. All have been drink ing more or less, although the bars this afternoon finally obeyed the orders to close. The mob Is one that cannot be reasoned with, and the man they seem most anxious to get at is MT. Coyne, the assistant manager. who in the absence of MT. Shields is in charge of the works. Mir. Coyne has discreetly kept out of sight all day.
 Late this afternoon the leaders of the mob held a conference and demanded that the company house the men in their hotel and boarding house and feed them until the money for their wages is forth coming. In order to appease the crowd this demand was granted and the men have taken possession of the White House, a large boarding house operated sent there to feed them. It is estimated that there are 2.00O men in the Soo to- night, and these are reinforced by all the idle rabble in town. A train carrying 200 more woodmen is expected tonight: The local police force iF being strengthened in the addition of all the deputies who can be found. Considerable feeling has been aroused over the shooting of two Frenchmen by the police during the trot- ble this morning. The rioters say that the officers used their revolvers when it was not necessary.
 The mob threatens an attack on police headquarters with view of ehecung the release of all the men who have been arrested. Both this building and that Oc- cupied by the fire Department is gI 'sd. mass meeting of the rioters was he'd tonight but there was no trouble.

SITUATION BRIGHTER.
Macedonian War Cloud Appears to
 Have Lifted.

Sofia. Sept. 8.-The situation here is much brighter today and the war clouds appear to have lifted. The Porte's assur- ances that thirty-two battalions recently ordered to proceed from Monastir to Adrianople will not be moved, has les. sened the apprehensions of tho Bulgarian Government. Further satisfaction is de- rived from the fact that M. Natohovitch is going to Constantinople in the capacity of Bulgarian diplomatic agent. He con- ducted the negotiations with the Porte last June, ana after their failure, re- turned to Sofia.
 The committee appointed for the purpose at the time of yesterdays demonstration of 15,000 Macedonians in this city, this afternoon waited on Premier Petroff and asked him if the Government intended to do anything to help the Macedonians He replied that the ministry was acting in what it conceived to be the best interests of Bulgaria and would continue the same policy. The spokesman of the committee told the Premier that his reply would not be satisfactory to the people, and the committee thereon withdrew

SALEN IS PERSISTANT
AGAIN CHALLENGES HANNA TO
 DEBATE WITH CLARK.
He is of the Opinion Tat There are Many Questions Which the Two Could Discuss With
 Profit.

Cleveland. O., Sept. 2s.-charles P. sa- len. chairman of the Ohio Democratic State Executive Committee. has made the following reply to Chairman Dick's s letter of last night sent from Columbus. Hon. Charles Dick, Chairman Republi-
 can State Executive Committee, Co.,
 lumbus. Ohio.
 Dear Sir: Your two-column letter discussing every phase of politics from the Penobscot to the Rio Grandes and concluding with the assertion that there is nothing to discuss. is noted in the public prints. Unless you have exhaust ed the subject yourself in your article your candidate might find something to discuss of a political nature at the pres ent time But for your assertion of your own candor I would be inclined to doubt your sincerity.
 'TThe paramount issue of the senatorial contest in this camSsjgn is the public record of Senator M A. Hanna and his unfitness by reason thereof to be re- turned to the United States Senate. If you are not aware that Hon. John H Clarke has attacked his public record and joined issue with the present sena- tor upon his record:
 First, in fathering the ship subsidy bill, which seeks to take from the peo- ple's treasury $10OO0.0O0 annually. and put 1t into the treasury of the steam ship companies; second, in forcing through the Legislature the reactionary and expensive municipal code which de- nies home rule to the cities of the State: and, third, in using his official position to secure for himself and associates franchise privileges. to the injury of the people-you can get this information by indujring of Senator Hanna himself
 He is on record as saying. taat his public record has been outrageously at- lacked and that wjseiI he g0ss upon the platform he will have something to say about 1t. I have asked you 10 arrange that MT. Clarke may be present when he says it. You decline for reasons that would be readily guessed if you did not assert that candor compels you to give the real reason for declining a joint dis cussion.
 Hon. NJ. A. Hanna understands that the above issue as to the merits of these measures which he has championed. are closely joined. perhaps too closely join ed for joint discussion. trust after advising with him, you will become in formed as to the situation and accept our challenge.
 q close, reminding you that it Is not Senator Baileys Free wool in Texas which interests the people of Ohio. but the wool which I fear you are trying to pull over the eyes of the people.
 Again, on behalf of Hon. John H. Clarke, I ask you to arrange for a joint discussion between him and Senator Hanna on the political issues of the cam paign. Very respectfully.

 ecutive Committed"

Association against the officers of the American Federation of Labor, the off, cers of the United Matters of North America and 25O members of the United Hatters as individuals.
 After a hearing before Judge Wheeler of the Superior Court the amount of at- tachment was reduced to 5000. This was a very substantial reduction, as the real estate covered by attachment Is held at an assessed valuation of s125,00O and the bank accounts of the individual de- fendants aggregate S521 1000. This hearing was on a motion by counsel for the de- fendants for the reduction of the amount attachment, for an order for the substitu- ton of a bond for the property attached and for an order requiring the oral ex- animation of the mills of the firm of D. E. Lowe and Company as to actual amount of damage sustained by the firm in consequence of the strike and boycott.
 The suit of which today's proceedings was part is brought in the State court seeking $100.0Oo damage. and Is indepen- dent of another suit in which the game parties are involved. brought in the Uni- ted States courts in which s24o.00o dam ages is sought and az also an injunction restraining the defendants from contin- uing the boycott on the ground that it is a violation of the interstate commerce law.

GENERAL DICKS LETTER.
Says There is Nothing for the Candi-
 dates to Discuss.

Columbus, O., Sept. 2S.-The reply of Chairman Dick of the Republican Stats Committee to Chairman Salen of the Democratic State Committee, declining the challenge of John H. Clarke, Demo- cratic nominee for United States Senator, to a joint debate with Senator M. A. Hanna, was given out last night.
 Chairman Dick says, in part:
 "T regret that candor compeis me to say that find some rather serious objections to the conditions of your proposal. There ought to he some such quality as mutual ity in a joint discussion. Mir. Hanna's party has but one set of principles, while MT Clarke's party has vast assortment of principles. sounding the entire gamut from doctrine to dogma-Democratic Populistic, Agrar4an and Sovialistic.
 ''There Is a tariff. How does MT. Clarke stand on that issue? His party stands all over it. In New England 1t is for free raw material and for protected finished products; in Texas 1t is for protected raw material and for free finished pro- ducts.
 Docs Mfr. Clarke favor A tariff for rev. enue only or a tariff for revenue with in- cidentaI protection? Is he German tariff Democrat or a Johnson no-tariff Democrat? If he favors any kind of a tariff, let him debate with MT Johnson, who is an absolute Tree tFduor anu would repeal every tariff and internal revenue law and sell all the custom houses.
 "Mr. Clarke has all these strings to his how. and more. too What chance does MT. Hanna. who has only one string to his bow. have in disputatton with such a man? Mir Hanna stands pat. When MT. Clarke poins a party that stands pat on anything. MT. Hanna will talk with him.
 "The Republican State platform de- cIares that every one of the war amend ments' is binding in honor upon every Amertcan citizen Why did Mir. Clarke sav in his Akron speech that that plat from winds up with the declaration that amounts to nullitication of the ff- teenth amendment
 "where does MT. Clarke stand on the war amendments? Does ne believe in then, or will he favor their repeal? Does he favor the white supremacy plank late lv adopted by the Maryland Democratic c.a+e convention at its pOorly-concealed threat to entirely suppress the negro ,,o+eo Ts he in harmony with Senator ru1,,o n who has boasted that whenever naoro voters attempt to exercise the cleo tiy,e fra nchise in South Carolina he will ,,,aa+ tba attempt with a shotgun? If elected to the Senate. will MT. Clarke ta,,, tis colleague from Tennessee, Mir Carmack. and vote for ms resolution to reneaI the Fifteenth amendment? Is Mr. Clarke willing to explain his position on these vital questions?

FIGHT IS POSTPONED.
Parks and Buchanan Factions Are
 Quiet,

Kansas City, Sept. 2S.-Today's session of the International Structural and Bridge Workers Association was taken up en- tirelv with routine affairs. Parks's fol- lowers helped to clear up the small bus mess of the gathering and no signs of the fight between the two factions prom ised yesterday were visible.
 President Buchanan made an appeal for harmony and his talk had the effect of at least temporarily of quieting the New Workers. It's the lull before the storm" said one delegate after the convention had adjourned for the day.
 The sum total of the days work was the granting of charter to the Architec- tural Iron Workers of Chicago, a labor body which has perhaps 5000 members throughout the country and decision to send delegates to the building trades al- liance to be held at Indianapolis next month.
