There will be a meeting of the Republican District Convention for the Second Judicial District at the Merchants hotel in Yankton, on Thursday, August 19, 1880, at 7 o'clock, p. m., for the 'purpose of electing a chairman, fixing upon the time, place and representation for a Di8tri6t Convention 'By request of a majority of the committee.

Blatt, and for the first-time in many years turns that position over to'a republican. In the iumdB'of Mr. Blatt the*'financial af fairs of the city will be wisely and safely administered. We congratulate Yankton upon its choice. The republican convention in Beadle count seleoted David' Bell as its. dele gate tothe Vermillion convention. He agreed to allow the use of his name proi vided he would be sent uninstructed. Upon this understanding he was selected and then the convention instructed him for Pettigrew. As lie is a strong anti Pettigrew ihan and as these instructions do not reflect the. sentiment of the coun ty, it is not at'all probable that he will cast the Beadle county vote for Petti grew. Th» EU(^oi£^G)ouri&\ tnakes a couple of' points' against the teftigrew boomers in Unioif otfunty. It ^charges that they are yoijtiiig4or mongy.^md whisky, and that it is-tl|eir filtration to pack the oanttts ^lfc^eiafo«r8ts.r Upon one of these points. the Courier gays: Ever-aiaee-one'or two partiee, who have here tofore '-beefl- lc6rfsiaerea republicans, began workuut for Pettigrew.^a large portion„of the democfgftio-i ilenenlh or ttfieKtotmty hate be -tofirie' ffettigHfr'i »Anient supporters.

It is safe to say that-a majority of'the men of this city, Sioux Point, Jefferson and Big Sioux support ing&ettisrN* are ^democrats* tit: looks sus picim, a|nmQaMMthrt H^tpoz^ats 1 want to see "him nominated' snoula dc enough to make good republicans drop him. hQ George O. Gorham announces that he has the greatest'reason to believe in re publican success in November. He says, regarding the republican conference in New York, that many: republicans were sore over the outcome at Chicago and the object of the conference was to re move that feeling by a free interchange of views, and the most pronounced mal conterftd arehSwat the front-for Garfield. Conkling will be active and influential in the campaign, and will work in New York. Goriiftm says the recent confer ence praotioally resulted in the entire reorganizing of the republioan-party on a solid business basis, with no dissatis fied elements, and this already had a marked effect. A Washington telegram is authority for the statement that "a prominent gen tleman, who has been in Virginia, is con vinced that the strength of the readj ast ers is underestimated, and the funders may find thdm&lvM oufc-yoted. A com promise seems inmpaeiple, andjjie fund-: ersareimach ifiora ftffely to| si^flnder everything and'vote with t£e reodjusters upon the notiMaal tioket than are the lat- of the split in the democratic ranks.

If a doubt existed in. any mind yesterday- as to the success of the reunion it was dispelled to-day by the immense throng of people who have arrived, 30,000 coming lit on tho various railroads entering the city and fully 30,000 mora from the city and surrounding country, it being estimated that over 60,000 people were on the camp grounds and tho oitv. Tho city is nil life and festivity to-night, rbumoii qpeqchwakings, general greetings aud militAty organizations benig the order of the hour. The presidential party arrived at the fair,grounds at 3 p. m., wUou a salute of twenty guns was tired and music of a lively air was played by the barracks band. President Nasli introduced ex-Gover non Dennison, who was made tempornry chairman. Tho ex-governor made no ex tended remarks, simplv extending a hearty greeting to the veterans and con gratulating them on the presence of the president of the United Mates aud the general of tho armies, and the presence ot so many men ana women who had come to salute them on their great serv ice to their country. Rev. AV. E. Moore, chaplain of the ex Soldiers aud Sailors association, then of fered prayer. Gen. Ward was next introduced by the chairman. Continued rain during the remarks of Gen. Ward caused much alire viation, though he made a very iuterest cring speech to the veterans. He stated that lie had come to take the place of that distinguished soldier, Gen. Swing. If there ever was an audience, on an oc casion to inspire, the many present sure ly would, with the ruler ot the nation and the commander of the armies pres ent. He next referred to the times and partings they had experienced in going war, death and prisons, hardships, and the glory of the final triumphs. They were young comparatively when their histories were made, and they withstood the hardships, and now had the satisfac tion of knowing they have a union. It has put the country on a solid basis aud our American union will last as flong as civilization. The speaker here said that this was above all party and political ideas. It was the grand result of national union. It is important to forget all political par ties at reunions but he ventured so far as to say that we would have a soldier for the next president of the United States, which was received with contin ued cheers, when the speaker remarked that he had entered on forbidden ground. Ait any rate, lie said, they did not tight in vain. The general concluded by expres sing regrets that the circumstances would not permit hiin to speak fur ther. Pi*sident: Hayes was introduced and was greeted with loud oheers on his in troduction and at' various points in his speech. His speech was as follows: "Mr. President: The citizens of Ohio who were soldiers in the union army and who have assembled here in such large numbers, have many reasons for mutual congratulations, as they exchange greet ings and renew old friendships at this state reunion. We rejoice that we had the privilege of enlisting and serving on the right side in this great conflict for the union and egual rights. The time thht has -passed since the contest ended is not so great but that we can without effort recall freshly and vividly the events and scenes and feelings and association of that mbst interesting period of our lives. We rejoice also that we have been per mitted to live long enough to see and en joy the results of the victory we gained and to measure the vast benefits which it conferred on our country and on the world. I shall not attempt to catalogue the benefits or to estimate their value. A single fact to which I call your atten tion will sufficiently illustrate, for my present purpose, the immeasurable bles sings conferred upon the United States by tlie sUccess of the union' arms. The statistics showing the movements of population which are going on in the world, afford a very good test of the com- parative advantages and prosperity of the various civilized nations. People leave their own country and seek new places in foreign lands to better their condition. Immigration into a coun try, therefore, is an evidence of that country's prosperity. It is also a most efficient cause of the progress of the country which receives it. During our civil war, and during the disturbed and troubled years which im mediately preceded and followed it, immigration fell off and became of com paratively small importance. The sta bility of our government and the per manent prevalence of .peace at home and with foreign nations—blessings which could not liave been enjoyed by this country if the union army had failed—have given to the world a confi dence in the future welfare and great ness of the United States which is pouring upon our shores such streams of immigration as were never known be fore. This is a fact of the most para mount significance in our present condition. If we take a survey of the globe we shall find everywhere, among civilized nations especially, many people who are eagerly looking forward to the time when they can emigrate to some more favored land. Only one of the great nations is iu no danger of losing its capital and labor and skill by emi gration. We find only one which by emigration is gaining rapidly in num bers, wealth and power. All are losing by this cause except the United States. The .United States alone .is gaining. Other 'nations see their people going, going. We see from every quarter the people of other countries coming, com ing, coming.* There is one flag, and in all the world only one, whose protection good men and women born under it will never willingly leave. There is one flag, and only one in the world, whose pro tecting folds good men and women bom under every other flag that floats over tlie whole world are eagerly and gladly seeking. That flag so loved at home— so longed for by millions abroad—is the old flag under which we marched to save, what in our soldier days we were fond of calling "God's Country." It is easily seen what it is that chiefly attracts this emmigration. It goes where good land is cheap where labor and capital find profitable employment where peace and social order prevail, and where civil and religious liberty are secure. II we draw nearer to the subject and ask where in oujr own countiy does this immigration 'mainly go, the recent census whose results we are now getting gives us the answer. That census also shows us that there are parts of the country where land is cheap and where capital and la bor are needed that are not rapidly in creasing in'population. In these states it will be found that two things are wanting: The means for popular educa tion are not sufficiently provided, and the good order of society is disturbed by a practical popular refusal to accept the results of the war for the union. These two defects, wherever they prevail in onr American society, are hostile to the increase of population,and to prosperity. They are found generally to exist to gether. Where popular education pre vails, these equal rights, which the rti amendments to the constitution of the United States embody, and the results of the war rire invioable. It -mtist per haps bo conccded that there was one great error in the measures by whiolt it was sought to secure the results—to harvest the fruits of our union victory. The system of slavery in the south of necessity kept in ignorance four millions of slaves. It also left unprovided with education a large number of non-slave holding white people. With the close of tho wnr the slaves inevitably became citizens. The uneducated whites re mained as they had been, also citizens. Thus the grave duties and responsibili ties ot citizenship devolved largely in the states hitely in rebellion upon edu cated people, white aud colored, and with what result'/ Liberty aud the exercise of the rights of citizenship are excellent educators. Iu many respects we are glad to believe that eneouraging prog ress has been made at the south. The labor system has been reorganized ma terial prosperity is increasing race pre judices 1*11(1 antagonisms have dimin ished the passions aud animosities of the war are subsiding, aud harmony and concord aud patriotic national senti ments are returning. But after all we cannot tail to observe that immigration, which so infallibly and instinctively limls out- tho true condition of all conn tries,does not luj-gely go into tho late slave li?l(iing region of the United Wales. A -gmit deal of cheap and pro ductive h'.tui can there be found where the population is not rapidly increasing. When our revolutionary fathers adopted the .ordinance of 1877 for the govefnment of the northwest terri tory, out-of which Ohio and fonr othor great states have been carved, they were not eonteut with merely putting into that organic law a firm prohibition against slavery and providing effectual guarantees of civil and religious liberty, but established as the comer stone of the free institutions they wished to build, this article: "Religions Morality and Knowledge." Being necessary to 'good government and the happiness of man kind, schools and the means of educa tion should'forever be encouraged. Un fortunately for the complete success of reconstruction ih the south, this stone was rejected by its builders. Slavery had been destroyed by the war, but its evils still live, and deprive many parts of the south of that intelligent self-gov einment, without which, in America at least, great and permanent prosperity is impossible. To perpetuate the union and to Abol ish slavery were the work of the war. To educate the uneducated is the appro priate work of peace. As long as any ^considerable numbers of our countrymen are uneducated, the citizenship of every American in every state is impaired in value and is constantly imperiled. It is plain that at the end of the war there were tremendous changes in the labor and social systems of the southern states, aud the ravages and impoverishment of the conflict added to the burden of their debts, and the loss of their whole circu lating medium, which died in their hands, left the people of those states in no condition to provide for universal popular education. In a recent memorial to congress on this subject in behalf of the trustees of the Peabody educational fund, Hon. A. H. H. Stuart, of Virginia, shows that two millions, of children in the southern states are without the means of educa tion, and adds, with great force: "When millions of citizens are growing up in the grossest ignorance, it is obvious that neither individual charity nor the resources of the impoverished states will be sufficient to meet the emergency, Nothing short of the wealth and power of the federal government will suffice to overcome the evil. The principal applied by general consent to works of improve ments is of national importance, and where local and private enterprises are inadequate to its prosecution, the general government should undertake it." On this principle I would deal with the question of education by the aid of the national government. Wherever in the United States the local systems of popular education are inadequate, they should be supplemented by, the general government by devotiiig to the purpose by suitable legislation and with proper safeguards, the public lands, or if neces sary. agpropriate fundB from the treasury of the United States. The soldier of the union has done his work and has done it well. The work of the schoolmaster is now in order. Wherever his work shall be well done in all our borders it will be found that there also the principles of the declaration of "independence will be cherished the sentiment of nationality will prevail the equal rights amendments will-be cheerfully obeyed, and there will be the home of freedom and the refuge of the oppressed of every race and of every clime, THE GOVERNOR AT FARGO. A Serenade and u:i Impromptu Kecepllon. Fargo Argus, luth. As announced in the special dispatch from Bismarck, published in yesterday's Argus, their excellencies the governor'of Dakota and Mrs. Ordway and suite, ar rived in Fargo last evening by the 5:30 train from the west. On stepping from the train the distinguished party were met by Mr. W. II. Witt, of the. Conti nental hotel, who is an old friend of the governor, and who lmd invited Judge Barnes and Major Edwards to join him in welcoming the visitors. The party were at ouce driven to the Continental hotel, where his honor, Mayor Chapin, was in waiting, and the deputy of the American empire was ushered to the comforts of a metropolitan hotel for the first time sincc he left the states. At the depot the Hi St man the gover nor encountered he recognized at once as an old congressional friend whom he had not seen before iu at least ten years. This gentleman was Major Buttz, who, when lie saw his excellency approaching, exclaimed: lU'I know you,'governor, but I am sure you don't know me!" "Yes I do," replied the jolly executive, "yon are Major Butti, and you used to be a mem ber of congress." After supper and a little welcome rest following the fatipues of the day, the elegant parlors of the Continental began to fill with the leading people of Fargo, and at 9 (/clock Stone's Northern Pacific cornet band formed in front of the ladies entrance, and struck up the well known air of ?Hail to the Chief." Quite a crowd had gathered about the front of the house, but nothing in point of numbers to what would have been the case it notice of the serenade or reception could have been given. After the band had rendered a couple of pieces, the governor appeared on the verandah, and addressed those assembled below. The governor spoke of his being a comparative stranger to many of the citizens of Fargo, and expressed a desire to meet them all personally. He touched on the wonderful fertility of Dakota, es pecially northern Dakota its magnifi cient future, and hoped to become bet ter acquainted with the teriitory and its enterprising people. The gubernatorial reception was im-« promptu and informal, but was none the less agreeable to the many of our people who were fortunate enough to be present and presented, and, if their ex cellencies were half as well pleased as the ladies and gentlemen they honored in receiving, the affair may'safely be said to have been a success. His honor, Judge Barnes, of the third judicial district, in- Li** A A 1 troduoed the citizens and eityonnes, and the maftntttaieKigovernor and his oharm ing lady reoeived them with tho graoe, case and dignitv that becraea the "draw ing rooms" of a republican court. A ST0RV OPTNE-WNITC MOUSE. The Amount of Money Saved by President*. cCorrespondence of the Philadelphia Time*. Speaking of saving money in the white house, I am reminded of a conversation I had some time ago'with Fifth Auditor Ela, who was formerly a member of oon gress from New Hampshire, regarding President Pieroe. Mr. Ela said that he knew General Pierce very well, and that there could not be found a more cour teous, diguifled gentleman. He was the perfection of propriety, and during his term everything iu a social way in the white house was of the highest order. His entertainments were of tho most costly, his wines were of the costliest and the whole atmosphere of the white house was liberal and becoming. Mrs. Pierce was a capital housekeeper and was capablo of superintending nil im mense establishment like the white house. General Pierce's unfortunate disease was the only bar to the perfect domestic administration of the presi dent's house. His desire, lor drink came sometimes ouee a mouth and sometimes it would not come for six months. When it came, however, he gave up to it en tirely and remained concealed from the public until lie got over it. There was conviviality about his sprees, lie always went oil' alone, and at such times 110 one could manage him but his yifc. No doubt his absence from his reception room day after day during these periods was ac counted for by those about the white house as sueli things have been account ed for more recently, by PROFESSIONAL.

Biich exclama­ tions as "a heavy cola," "cholera morbus," "jaundice," &o. Gen. Pierce's great trou ble, however, was a brother who would never Btop sowing his wild oats. The general had paid his brother's debts again again, but. it did no good. While Gen. Pierce was president his brother was particularly reckless, and after the general's term had expired and he had returned to Concord he "made medicine," as the Indians sny, with liis wayward brother—iu other words, he had a very earnest talk with him. At first the bro ther did not care to talk about it, but the general demanded to know of every dol ar of indebtedness against the name of Pierce. He explained their father had left them an honorable name that should be respected everywhere. He said that on account of their father and on his (the general's) own account, it would not do to have unpaid debts. And then and there Frank Pierce paid out nearly $20, 000, nearly half his fortune, to pay the debts of his brother. During his term as president, Gen. Pierce saved from his salary about $12,000 a year. Mr. Lincoln did not. save anything. Andrew Johnson saved about $50,000 Gen. Grant saved nothing during -nis first term, but he saved about $60,000 during his second. There is little doubt that Mr. Haves dur ing his four year will save at least $160, 000, or $40,000 a year, HOOTS AND 8HOKH.

Amusing Correspondence Hetween the Census Clerks and an Aatlior. -u Washington Correspondence Hartford Times. According to tlie report on tlie wealth of Montana, there are but two goats in that territory. The census office clerks thought there must be something wrong about tliis, so they wrote to the auditor of the territory to look it up. They ar gued and convinced themselves there must be more than two in such a big country as Montana. But tlie auditor answered that. the reports of the enu merators showed only two. The audi tor also reported that one of them was 011 a farm at one side.of the territory, and the other at the other end. He gave the names of the farms they were on and their owners. The census office clerks held an indignntion meeting over the in formation and resolved that the auditor was lying. The discovery was made that one of the goats was valued at 810 while the other was assessed at only The census clerks then made up their minds individually and collectively that they had the auditor certain. A let ter was framed asking him to explain the wonderful difference in the valua tion of the two animals. It was also suggested that possibly he had over looked the existence of other goats in their territory, and that if lie would be so kind as to make a special inquiry he would oblige the census office and "prob ably perfect the otherwise unsually cor rect enumeration of Montana-"* The auditor of Montana auswereil in a week or so. He said ho did not desire to be quarrelsome or unaccommodating, but that if he was bothered any more about those "two damned goats" he would know the reason why. He added in ex planation that the reason why one was put down at 810 was because lie was worth 810, and tlmt the one put down at §5 was worth S5 tlmt ho had done his whole duty and did not want to hear any more about the matter. Strangely enough every word in the letter was written plain except the adjective "damned." It is thought by some to be "hundred." This would make it appeal that there were "two hundred goats" in that territory, which was agreed to be something more like it. A council of war was held and it was decided that notwithstanding it might further agitate the auditor to be asked again to explain liis figures, yet it must be done. A Vir ginia clerk, a mau who "has a record" as a brave mau, was requested to address a letter of inquiry to the auditor again, asking if he wanted to be understood as saying that there were 200 goats iu Mon tana-and if so state what counties tliey were in, and the census office or at leas't the wealth, debt and taxation division of it, would be glad to know the facts in the case. and The answer was anxiously looked for. It came yesterday and was brief. -Its words were: "I am a Democrat with a big 1) and only recognize a Union with a big U. There arc but TWO goats in Mon tana. I have come to the conclusion that whole damned crowd in the census office are crazy, and I don't tight but only pity crazy men." .*/otltrr*I Mothers!! .WofJim.'.'.'

MOODY AND LAKE A Trip From Flanriivan to Madison and Cay ofllje'IilKl "5" ntSf The •ftiwns afNeiv Mntllsim1 nuiOlfViiiiiii— A.Hud Fesllug AVliloli.Should bo Tlimt tied In its Inl'miry. i: special CorrespomUnct. On Friday morning wo started from Flandrean for Madison and Horman in Lake county. The stage in which the trip was made contained three scats, upon and around which were porohed ten passengore including tho driver, be sides the usuai traps and calamities which each traveler considers it essen tial to carry with him. As the stage does not often get so big a load, the driver was in good cheer and by persist ently patting his ponies on the back brought his tightly packed load through in good season. Tho road through western Moody and eastern Lake coun ties lies over undulating laud of fair quality, although not as good as that aloug the Sionx and ill the central por tions of Lake county. It is tolerably well settled and the improvements. are of a good character. The principal crop is wheat, and this is of an excellent quality and will give a big yield per acre. The cornfields, which are small and not very numerous, do not present an encouraging prospect, and present indications are that the crop will be small aud of an inferior quality. The oats crop in some parts of Moody and Lake counties is practically a failure. Up to two or three weeks ago the pros pect for this crop was very promising, but about that time, during few days of unfavorable weather, it was attacked by rust and so badly injured that hundreds of acres will not pay for harvesting. What has been harvested is very light aud will make poor feed. With the exception of corn and oats the crops are very good. The wheat crop especially is magnificent. The yield is large aud the quality will rate No. 1. In Lake county the census enumerators report thirty thousand acres planted to wliept, and a careful estimate places the average yield at from eighteen to twenty bushels per acre, giving the county an aggregate yield of about 550, 000 bushels. Lake county includes iu its limits as good land as any other county in the territory, and being well adapted to the growing of wheat aud other ce reals, will soon occupy a front rank in the populous and prosperous counties of southeastern Dakota. Arriving at Madison, the county seat of Lake, we were surprised to see that nearly all the buildings, that on our for mer visit confronted each other from op posite sides of the principal street of the town, like two lines of soldiers facing each other in grim silence, had disap peared, not the victims of fire or wind, but removed, either bodily or by piece meal, to the new site on the railroad some five miles north and west. The railroad wouldn't come to the town, so, like Mohammed, the town went to the railroad. The process of removal is still in progress and will be continued until nothing is left to mark the spot where Madison once stood but the cellars and wells, and perhaps a small building in which the county officers will, as occa sion requires, assemble and be known as the county seat. The railroad, or rather the grade for the proposed railroad, lies about a mile or two north of Madison lake, and about two and a half miles east of the town of Herman, aud the lake of the same name, is the site selected for the new town of Madison. It occupies an eligible site and now contains about twenty buildings, including new ones and those removed from the old town. Zane Jones' Sentinel occupies a new building in the new town, and the boys talk bravely and exhibit great faith in the future of the town. William Lee, the pioneer landlord of the county, had his hotel taken down and removed and is now putting it up in improved and en larged shape oa idle tww site. Nearly all the merchants, and other business men and mechanics, have removed to the new town sad are doinsr business there, while those left behind will sixi follow. Two miles AND J.

A Flr« Destroys llio Agoncy Office—Mutrl moiilitl Inclinations of The Abori£tntcs— The leail Itont Element Vigorously at Work. Regular Correntpomlencf. Crow Creek Indian agenoy, D. T., Aug. 1880—Our monotony was disagreeably varied by a lire at the agency this morn ing, destroying the office and a building used by one of the employes. Tho cause of the fire is still euvelopcd in mystery. All the records and property of the gov ernment were saved. The loss, outside of the building, was confined to a few articles of clothing. The alarm was given at half past four, and iu a very short time, all hands were engaged in fighting the flames and resouing the pa pers aud other property contained in the houses. It seems incredible that so much could be done, ns the houses were of wood aud dry as tinder. The great quan tities of water thrown on the file were absorbed and evaporated almost instan taneously. Some time since one of our Indians fell in love with the lovely daughter of Wizi, a chieftain, who objected to the coarse intermixture with his nobility. The match was one of love between the two most interested parties, but was rudely thrust aside by the inexorable pride of the high minded and haughty parent. The discarded suitor, with a mind weak and irritated by the disap pointment of his dearest hopes, proposed to another lady of the tribe, and they were in due time joined in wedlock by the Rev. Luke Walkei. Meantime, an other gallant youth, Sossu by name,' a youth to fortune aud to fame unknown, was smitten by the charms of the forlorn daughter of Wizi. Lucy, for such is the sweet name of the fair damsel, fell an easy prey to the blandishments of this young gentleman, whose capacity for resting is very great, but fearing again the opposition of her stern parent, con sented to an elopement, and the house of Wizi was tilled with grief. The offending parties were brought before the chief au thority, and as the oft'ence could not be undone, were compelled to link their hearts and fortunes under the allspices of a legalized minister. It is hoped that a happy life is before them and that their rations may be sufficient. Many of the Indians have been visit ing other agencies, and have returned loaded with the gifts of generous hosts. I might remark that there is among In dians a class somewhat similar to that which decorates our christian civilization, and whose members are known as "dead beats." Their superior wisdom enables them to reap great benefit at times, and their similation of the lilies of the field which toil not, is successful. We have had our share of Indian visitors, and they have been feasted and have danced. One of them was so far forgetful of the rites of hospitality as to beguile one of the innocent wives of his host and take her along with him to his home. The disconsolate and bereaved spouse con soles himself with the remaining partner of his bosom until he can raise a pony to secdre another bride. Otherwise, affairs here are in good con dition, barring the scanty room in conse quence of our fire. The Indians are get ting in their harvest, which promises fairly despite the unfavorable weather we have had in the earlier part of the season. G. T. B. TO THE PUBLIC.

During the late visit of tho Sioux oliiefs to Washington tho proposition to run a road through their reservation was discussed and the Indians demanded iu payment for the right ten thousand head of eattle. This tho railroad com pany declined and the Indians did not really comprehend what was finally agreed upon. That their minds might not remain in darkness and doubt upon tho subject, each of tho chieftains was fur nished with a printed copy of tho agree ment. As none of them could read it, this dooument was a valuable token for them to carry back to their people. One of the chiefs is of an inquiring turn of mind and he has been industriously in vestigating the mysteries of tho priuted slip and has reaohed a vague comprehen sion of its contents. He requests us to print it that his white friends may reflect upon tho difference between ten thous and head of cattle and $3,200. He has an idea that tho cattlo would be worth more than the money consideration, bnt isn't quite clear on that point and seeks light. Will any one help a poor Indian Here is the document: This agreement, made this the twelfth day of June, A. D., 1880, by and between the Sioux Indians, resident .upon the reservation in the territory of Dakota, represented by their chiefs and head men, aud acting under the supervision and with the approval of the secretary of the Interior of"the United States and the Dakota Central railway company, a body corporate of said territory of Dako ta, witnesseth: That said tribes of Sionx Indians do hereby grant to said railway company the right to occupy one section of land on the western bank of tho Missouri river, at or near Fort Pierre, in said territory, for a freight depot, and for the residence of its employes necessarily en gaged iu the operation of its road and in forwarding freight transported by said company to the Missouri river, and for no other purpose, aud to be occupied under such regulations as the secretary of the interior may prescribe for the pro tection of tho Indians. Said section of land to be definitely located by said rail way company as soon as the' necessary surveys have been made, to determine the point at which the road of said com pany shall strike the Missouri river. And the said Indians do hereby grant to said railway company the right to construct and operate a wagon road by the nearest and most practicable route from the point where the said freight depot may be located, to intersect the wagon road ruining west from Fort Pierre to the Wiu'k Hills, said wagon road not to exceed two hundred feet in width, and to be used for no other pur pose except the passage of freight with teams. The grants herein contained are made upon the express condition that said railway company shall, before entering upon the possession of said land, pay to said tribes of Indians, in such manner as the secretary of the interior may direct, the sum of three thousand two hundred dollars for the use and occupancy of said section, and the further sum of "five dol lars per Here for the land which may be used by said company for the wagon road aforesaid. And the Dakota Central railway com pany hereby agrees to use saul section of laud and the said wagon road, to be constructed as aforesaid, for the sole aud exclusive purpose of trade and inter course by its own officers and employes, as expressed in the foregoing. And further, to exclude all intruders aud persons not in the employ of said com pany, aud authorized to go upon or use said land and road and to all times ob serve, aid, and assist in the enforcement of the intercourse laws and the rules and regulations prescribed, or to be pre scribed from time to time, by the secre tary of the interior, for the* benefit and protection of the said Indians. And upon failure on the part of said company to perform in full and in good faith all the requirements of this agree ment, it is hereby stipulrted by the part ies hereto that all rights of said compa ny in and to the said section of land and wagon road shall be forfeited and shall cease and determine, and the secretary of the interior, at his discretion, may decide and declare the said forfeiture, and up on written notice to the said company may take possession aud control of the lands and road aforesaid for the use and benefit of the said Indians. It is also further stipulated and agreed that the grant of right of way for said wagon road herein made and excepted, and the use thereof shall cease and de termine on the part of said railroad com pany whenever it shall construct and complete a railroad from the Missouri river westward through and across the said Indian reservation in Dakota, or so far as to intersect and connect with the road known as the Fort Pierre and Blapk Hills wagon road in said territoty bnt the use and enjoyment of the sec tion of land hereinbefore granted shall continue in the said company subject to the conditions aforesaid as long as the shall continue to be embraced within the bounds of the Indian reserva tion. It is agreed and understood that the foregoing grants, stipulations, and agree ments shau include and be binding up on the successors and assigns ot the said railroad company as fully as though pre vionsly named herein.

I noticed an item iu your issue of last evening stating that efforts were being made to sink ail artesian well. It is certainly something to be thankful for, that there is au interest awakened upon this subject. The late fires in Yankton certainly ought to open the eyes of our people to the importance of providing some protection agaiust fire. The fire which burned Powers' stable aud other buildings destroyed enough property, over and above the iuaurance obtained, to put iu cisterns the length of Third street. Various methods have been mentioned and this for an artesian well is a good one but will this meet the wants of the entire city There is no doubt but that we can get an eastern company to put in water works, Holly system, provided our council would grant them a fran chise. If this could be(done we cer tainly ought to grant very favorable terms. Nothing in the way of improve ments could give us as many advantages as the Holly water works. Our citizens pay large sums for Missouri river water, and in order to sprinkle the streets the water has to be hauled from the river. In addition to this, all that will be need ed for protection against fire is hose, and a powerful stream of water, with the '•old muddy" to back it, will be always in readiness. No tax that will be asked of us for hydrants will be noticed by the city, when by its means we can stop these fearful conflagrations. Can you properly estimate the loss to this city if the frame row between Wal nut street and Douglas should burn. The insurance rates are so heavy that parties cannot afford to carry much in surance, and when that once starts we must, look on and see property burn and thousands of dollars taken by fire, which is a dead loss to the town, and many will not be rebuilt for some time. Will not the common council appoint a committee to correspond with eastern parties and see if we cannot get parties to give us water works on reasonable terms. We would then have plenty of water ior our business aud dwelling houses, water lawns, gardens and trees which will beautify the town as well as give the very best protection.
