miners, went along the search for
gold.
A great many private expeditions
designed to explore the Black Hills
country had been stopped by the
government, through fear that the
Indians would rise and massacre the
members of the exploring parties.
Through the efforts of General Gus
ter the government had finally or
dered military expedition to pro-
coed and explore the country. Paci-
fic messages had been sent to the
Indians, assuring them that the OBJ
jects of the expedition were peaceful
and not warlike, but it was reported
that the young braves were gather
ing, and 5000 of them were reported
massed in the Black Hills country.
The correspondent of the Tribune
promised further reports from time
to time. The expedition was provi'
stoned for sixty days and was armed
with new Springfield rifles, just then
issued.
What was doing on the Missouri
river in those days is evidenced from
the River News published in the
Tribune of that date. The following
names of steamers will appeal to the
old time rivermen: Ida Stockdale."
May Lowry" Katy P. Kouatz,"
Josephine" Miner" Helena" "Pen.
inah." The latter steamer brought
down as a part cargo, IS tons of sill
yer, 40 bales of fur, 600 dry hides
buffalo and several passengers.
Something doing in steamboating in
those days. There we're some sixty
or seventy steamers registering out
of Bismarck. The fare from Bismarck
to Helena by steamer then was $4S.
In the personal columns it is learn
ed that General Gibbon and his FAM
lily were at Bismarck waiting fro a
boat to Fort Benton; O. J. Miller,
sheriff of Burleigh county, who was
afterwards drowned in the Missouri
river while pursuing horse thieves,
and who was succeeded by Alexander
Mckenzie, had been appointed Unit
ed States deputy marshal; Col. Pond,
then United States district attorney,
visited Bismarck on his return from
Penbina; DR.. B. F. Slaughter, long
since passed to his reward, was visit
ing in Washington, on business with
the postof1ce department; prepare
tions we're being made by the resi-
dents of Bismarck for a big Fourth
of July celebration. Col. Thompson,
Col. Poland and Col. Brownson were
to be among the speakers.
Fish stories were not uncommon
then, for Henry Waller was reported
to have caught a As pound catfish in
Apple Creek.
The first session of district court
for Burleigh county was convened
at Morton's hall. Judge A. H. Barnes
OF the Pembina district appeared in
the absence of Judge Shannon. At

The first school I ever attended was
a public school in Shreveport. I was

In May, 1861, I received my diploma

from June, 1861, to July, 1865; first
in Hays Seventh Louisiana Infantry
in Virginia, and then in Stark S

Harvey's Mississippi Scouts until dis
charged in 1864 on, account Of wounds
received in battle. After my discharge

clerk in the Adjutant Generals office

July, 1865.

SPECIAL MEETING
The Council Called by Mayor Dickson

Mayor Dickson has issued a call fol

The meeting is 'to receive the report

standard motor-propeiled combination
hose wagon and chemical engine. To
consider release by Mayor of Officer
Nolen. To consider condition of sewer
in St. Paul bottom"
These subjects, all important, should
have been selected some time since and
will admit of no longer delays.
The Nolen case should be settled As
suspended officer he has been drawing
his salary as if on regular duty.
He should be relieved of his disability
held against him by suspension. He may
be released by discharge or by being re-
duced to the ranks, or he may be re-
tanned as lieutenant of police.
His case is not one in which the ques-
ton of prohibition should be entangled.
1t is simply violation of the rules of
discipline and from that view alone it
should be viewed and discussed.

is NEW YORK'S COMMERCIAL
PRESTIGE FOUNDED ON
FRAJJD2

The question is now being asked in
Washington whether or not New York IS
commercial prestidge and Importance
is due to custom s frauds as well as
railroad rebates. That it has had, be-
cause of these customs frauds, great
over New Orleans and Phil.
adelphia in the matter of sugar i'm
ports is now evident, the fact having
been brought out by the recent sugar
weighing scandal. The trust saved
several million dollars on it's cargoes
by importing them through New York,
and this advantage, due to fraud, was
so great that it is surprising that any
cargoes should have been allowed to
enter by any other port. An attempt
was made to cover up the frauds by
asserting that there were similar frauds
at New Orleans, but the investigation
of the Federal grand jury and the
experts sent here by the Treasury De-
partment showed these charges to be
without the slightest truth. Other Gus
toms frauds have been unearthed at
New York, and suggest the possibility
that they may explain the diversion to
that city of considerable trade from
other ports.-Times Democrat.

this and other States have signifed their
willingness to supply farmers with seed
to the extent Of their supplies, but it is
not thought that these wilf be sufficient
for replanting the vast area damaged by
the cold. The highest price for seed is
ST. per bushel, or about double the price
which the farmer obtained from the
mills. In some instances cotton fields
