oyster Bay, Sept. 23.-Arrange

welt through the south have practical
" been completed, except those per
tanning to his visit to New Orleans
and Little Rock.
On account Of the prevalence Of ye!-
low fever in New Orleans it is not un-
likely that the President may defer his
visit to that city until a later time, in
which event he would visit Little
Rock at the same time. He has been
urged not to so to New Orleans so
long as the fever epidemic continues
there, but he has also received assur-
ances that the fever will be stamped
out before the tentative date Of his
visit October oath.
It was officially announced tonight
that if the quarantine regulations of
the other states should prevent the
Presidents entrance into Arkansas or
his return to Washington by rail after
having visited New Orleans, he may
consider the plan of making New Or
leans his final stop on the trip and
returning from there to Washington
by sea.
However. no definite plans have
been made for the New Orleans and
Little Rock portion of the trip an
will not be made for two weeks.

The so-called cheap lands OF
Canada will be found cheap in
deed, and many a farmer who goes
to that vast, sparsely settled re-
gion to await the advance in prices
will have to wait a long time.
Crops are extremely uncertain and
the distances are great to markets.
some Of those who have gone to
the British northwest from this
state are already returning, having
had enough Of the prospect. And
many Of those who sold out and
went to Canada would be glad to
buy back the old North Dakota
home at a considerable increase
over the price they received for it
It is a good place for those who dc
not dare return, but a mighty poor

branded to have the brands adver-
tised and also the home ranch. To
all those who desire to have their

cut of same, and will make the cost
of advertising as low as possible.
The LEADER will publish an inch

may be the means Of saving the

ing the year. The LEADER is the

The u. S. Beats Them All.

Before the Russian-Japanese
war, in the table of the armed
strength Of various countries it
was customary to put Russia first
among the nations of the world,
with an active army Of 1, l25,0OO
soldiers, a first reserve of 100000
and a second reserve of 1,375,OOO,
bringing up the total number of
available soldiers on a war footing
to about 100000, as against s.
100000 in Germany, 100000 in
France, 100000 in Italy, 1,60O,-
600 in Austria-P ungary, and LOO
600 in Turkey. But a recognized
authority among military men, the
Militaire of Paris, some time since
disputed the correctness of the
popular belief that Russia can put
in the field the largest army Of the
world in time of war, and says:
"The United States are not a great
military power from the point of
view of these effective foot forces
in peace, but in time Of war their
permanent contingent would form
the nucleus of the vastest army of
the world.

There is one provision of law at
the present time that the next ses-
sion of the Legislature should rem
edy. That is the statute giving a
party brought before the district
court on a criminal charge the
right to a change of venue and to
call in another Judge. In a major
ity of cases the affidavit of preju-
dice is not sustained by the facts.
Frequently a defendant who could
have just as fair a trial in the
county whose states attorney-form-
uIates the information, makes an
affidavit of prejudice, takes the
case to another county and calls in
another judge. This action entails
a lot of extra expense, trouble and
delay, but the request must, nolens
volens, be granted. The local
Judge should have somethingto say
as to whether there should be a
change of venue or whether an
other Judge should be sent for.
The interests of a defendant in the
matter of a fair trial could beprop-
erly safeguarded were the judge
of q district wherein the crime is
alleged to have occurred, allowed
to use some discretionary power
regarding a change.-Emmons Go.

somesfew years later-so [ am told
while riding a pony at Washing
ton, when about fourteen years of
age.
Fort Buford was not built until
1866 and Col. Rankin was its first
commander, succeeded by Col.
Morrow in 1868, and Col. Gilbert
in 1903. Col. Rankin's wife, a
Cuban lady, and another young
woman came near being captured
by Sitting Bulls Sioux near the
river bank in front of the post.
The ladies were on a horseback
ride, but it came near being a very
costly one for them. I was per-
sonally acquainted with Col.
Rankin and his wife and she mar
rated the story to me herself.
Now a few words more about
Mr.. Withrow's "Story of the Hid
den Treasure" and I am done. I
have heard-from time to time
considerable about the killing Of
the gold miners on Burnt Creek
Bar by Saunte Sioux ever since it
happened which was in August,
1868. The truth in the matter
could easily have been reached
and much speculative talk avoided.
Some of the Indians who partici-
pated are no doubt still living on
their reservation in Nebraska.
John Young the Aricaree clerk
in the register Of deeds Office,
Washburn, tells me that ''The Sol
dier," an Aricaree one Of the ten
who escorted Birard's Indian bro
ther-in-law to the miners boat af-
ter the massacre-and who helped
scrape up the gold OF the sand
where the Sioux had thrown it, is
still living on his farm opposite
old Fort Berthold.
Then there is Taylor's book
"Frontier and Indian Life" which
has a whole chapter devoted tc
this subject entitled Massacre on
Burnt Greek Bar" which has stood
without contradiction, although
published twelve years or more
and which Mr.. Withrow might
consult as to dates, etc., before hi
writes of "Hidden Treasures

II do not claim to know much
history and have not been a stu
dent in that line-but I know of
what [ have seen-and remember
what has been told me. This in
answer to a somewhat verbose cor
respondent of the Palladium some
weeks back on "The Story of the
Hidden Treasure"
General j. w. Forsythe, military
secretary on General sheridan's
staff, was in military command of
the military exploring expedition
up the Yellowstone river on the
Steamer Josephine in the spring
of 1875, which steamer I had the
honor to command as its captain.
The steamer was built in Pitts
burg, Pennsylvania, and named by
me for General Staley's little
daughter Josephine. General Sta
ley was then in command of the
military forces on the Missouri
with headquarters at Fort Sully-
about 200 miles down the river
from Fort Rice.
During this expedition up the
Yellowstone we made landing at
Pompey's Pillar and it was there
in officers counsel that General
Forsythe had said that the Pillar
was named by Captain Clark of the
famous Lewis and Clark exploring
expedition of l804-6 for the memo
ry of an old negro servant of Cap
tain Clark. The full journal Of
Lewis and Clark will probably
give all the information necessary
I have only seen an distracted
history of that trip and they make
mention of Captain Clark naming
the curious isolated rock formation
"Pompey's Pillar"
On our trip up the Yellowstone
in 1875 the boat had two flags and
one of them was taken ashore and
a flag pole erected on the Pillar in
honor of the event. The flag was
given us in honor of the naming
Of the boat. And this steamer was
the first of it's kind that had ever
navigated the Yellowstone as high
up as Pompey's Pillar.
The Palladium correspondent
who signs himself John 9. With
row intimates that he has been 40
years in the wild west and might
correct a great deal that is now
passing as current history-and
proceeds in his modest way of at
tempting some Of them.
The history of the Lewis and
Clark expedition as told by their
journals says Sergeant Floyd of
the expedition died and was buried
on what is now known as Sargent's
Bluffs, seven miles below Sioux
City, Iowa, on the Missouri river
the river Floyd at Sioux City
was named in his honor as we'll as
Sargent's Bluff.
The historical correction, Mr.
Withrow says, however, that Ser.
geant Floyd died on the Vermillion
river, South Dakota, thirty miles
north of Sioux City.

events again tells us that the maj
