YANKTON", DAKOTA TERRITORY, WEDNESDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 29, 1880. NUMBER 210. A RUSSIAN PLAGUE. Ulphtlinrla in Said to Come from tlio Do main of the Cxur, Brooklyn Eagle. The governor of Kharkoff, ,a Russian rovince, reports that during the year 879 the number of deatbB from diph­ theria alone was 7,000, and for the first ten months of 1880 not less than 5,000 inhabitants have succumbed to the dreaded disorder. This would be a frightful statement for the great state of New York, but the entire province does not contain a population greater than 1,750,000. The death rate, there fore, from diphtheria is shockingly high. The report is suggestive of several im portant inference^ which may be turned to account for our especial advantage. In the first place, the mortality iu Khar koff from diphtheria conclusively de molishes, if nothing else had done so, the theory that diphtheria is due to sewer-gas. The capital of the province, of the same name, is a manufacturing town about the size of Syracuse, in this state. Not being situated iu a particu larly progressive country, it may be taken for granted that the sewer-gas fac tory— uaniQly, the sewerage system of Kharkoff—is exceedingly minute. The Russian does not trouble himself very much with sewers, even in aristocaatic Moscow or imperial St. Petersburg. In the province at large, among a rude ag ricultural peasantry, the sewer is prob ably unknown. In other provinces the conditions are about the same. And yet, in this one in particular diphtheria lias become epidemic, carrying off some 13,(KH) inhabitants in two years. There is only one conclusion to be drawn by common sense from this presentment of facts—namely, that sewer-gas has noth ing whatever to do with diphtheria. But the fact that the disease has raged through the empire of the czar for years does point to one very important fact, namely, that Russia is either the start ing point of the disease or else that it lies very close to the starting point. It is admitted that while the disease may be endemic, that is, find a lodgment more or less permauent, it is iu general epi demic, as is shown during the present season. It has followed a steady course so iar this winter that it has swept over this continent, until the eities|of the west and south have been overtaken by it. In this respect it resembles two other dread pestilences, Asiatic cholera and the plague, or black death,whose movements have been well defined. Careful observa tion has shown that both have their ori gin in Asia, cholera rising to the import ance of an epidemic at uncertain periods along the low, seamy plains of the Gan ges, and the plague iu the southern re gions of central Asia. It is something more than an assumption that diphtheria follows the same law, and that while it is a constant element in Russia, circum stances favorable to its development cause it to overleap its ordinary bounda ries and travel westward. About a year ago, when the Russians of Kharkoff were dying by the thousand, other provinces were even more gneviously affected. It will be remembered that such was the terror iuspired by the pestilence that the inhabitants of one province iu particular were flying in every direction, carrying the seeds of diphtheria with them." The imperial government was alarmed. It saw the necessity for checking this flight, and a cordon of eighty thousand, troops was formed around the center of the disorder. By this means it was confined within cer tuin limits, and thither were sent forces of medical practitioners from Russia, France, Germany and England. But it was clearly impossible that governmen tal vigilance could be permanently and altogether effective. The disease spread, and the germs of it were carried bv the dirty Buss in his clothes and household effects, During the ."past year emigra tion from Russia has been extensive. The records show that the population of this country lias received considerable accession from the arrival of Russian im migrants, who come in batches, like the Mennonites, and in families like the Ger mans. It is oulj too likely that our present visitation is due to the release of the diphtheria germs from its hiding placc in the chests aud baggage of Rus sians arriving in this country. It has been latent iu their warm winter clothing all summer and has iufected the air when the approach of cold weather has brought their winter garments into use. If this is the case, then the course of the quar antine authorities seems clear. A glance at the medical returns will show whether the local facts correspond with this the ory. If they do, it will be a simple pre caution to require the immediate disiu fectation of all baggage arriving by steerage with chlorine gas upon the in stant of landing. Experience has dem onstrated that chlorine is the immediate antidote to septic poisons, and it is as chcap as it is effective. We call the at tention of the state medical authorities to this point, and suggest that reports beariug upon jt be secured at once from all quarters in which diphtheria has ap peared.

Abraham Lincoln is on record, in his peculiar way, on the system of competi tive examinations. The colored troops raised directly by the genaral government I during the war were officered through competitive examinations, aud as was' generally admitted, were remarkably well officered, too. But it would occa sionally happen that a young college student, by committing Ciiusoy tactics, and by shying out his mathematical aud historical knowledge to good advantage would get a captaincy or a majority bo. tore he could shoulder arujs aud march a company out to the parade grounds. And often a inau peculiarly fitted to com mand, with a special relish for fighting and perfect in the niaiHuuvering of a regiment or brigade, but unfamiliar with the characters of anoieut history and ig. norantof logarithms, would fail in secur ing a seeoud lieutenancy. One of the latter class once, iu his perplexity, ap- Eaby,that, IHI to Mr. Lincoln, and that man of I wonderful discernment and practical sense sent him to Secretary Stanton with I this note: "1 desire that Sir. should be appointed to the coloueley of a color-! ed regiment, ulthongh he may not know the exact shade of Julius Csesar's hair."l JL l»es Pa- Um"' -/r: sr* ROYAL PEOPLE. Some Specimen* that Have Iteen Noted in the Far Went. Salt Lake Tribune. Mr. Archibald Forbes, the celebrated English war correspondent, has a lecture entitled "The Royal Peeple I Have Met." Any of us could prepare a lecture on that theme, for we have met lots of royal people. There was one in a little town in California some years ago, named Zach Taylor, who for years lived on the charity of the citizenB. Suddenly a mysterious thief commenced devastating the town. Blankets and flannels were stolen from the stores, veg etables and fruits from the gardens, fresh meat from the butchers, and though everybody'suffered, the thief could not be caught. At last, one morning, a horseman dashed into the village, and, calling a rowd around him, stated that the widow ff a man who had been killed a month before by the Indians was with five little children living in an old aban doned cabin half a mile out of town. A rush was made for the cabin, the woman and children found, and when asked how long they had been there and how they had lived, the woman answered: 'We have been here five weeks, and would have starved except that an old gentleman brought us every thing we needed, more than we needed, indeed, and I would not have accepted so much had he not told me that his stock was inexhaustible." When asked to describe the old gentleman, she had not spoken a dozen words until, between laughing and crying, half a dozen of the listeners cried: "Old Zack." Tho woman was moved into town and her wants supplied, and there was no more losses suffered from the thief. The great hearted old bummer and Christian thief had taken care of the family, and had done it because, despite of the dry-rot and the whisky which had benumed his energies, his.soul, deep down, was royal to the core. In a ming camp in Nevada we once heard two miners conyersing. The elder one said: "Some bloody thief has stolen the mattress from our bed, and our best pair of blank ets." The other answered: "Never mind, we can cut some bushes that will answer as well as the mattress, and we do not need the blankets we have slept too warm of late." A month later it trans- ired a poor woman who, with her lived not far away, revealed the fact that the young man had, one morn ing, suddenly opened the door, tossed in the mattress and blankets, and closing the door, gone away without saying a word. He did it because he was one of the "royal people." These are samples. Their numbers are limitless. They made the coast golden more than the treasures taken from the hills. They sleep, most of them, in forgotton graves, in the can ons on the hill sides, under the pines they die and make no sign but because they have lived human nature has been made better wherever their influence ex tended, and that, in the boisterous camps of the coast such spirits exist is a jiroof that the hope is not vain that by and by the human race will be a brotherhood, and that to every man in distress, every other man will be a neighbor.

flailtj £tm mttl fakotaten WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 29,1880. The •rriTikl of Mr. Tresoott, one of the American commissioners bent to China to negotiate a new treaty with the Chi nese Rovernment, ia expected in San Franoisoo some time this week. He will reach Washington probably by the 5th of January/ St. Louis democrats are devising a scheme to dethrone the city central com mittee^ which it is alleged is inimioal to the best interests of the party, and to call into existence another committee, which will better represent the pure' democratio_part^_^^_^_ It is stated, that Congressman-elect Bramm, of Pennsylvania, asserts that he will act with the greenbaekers in con gress. It has been supposed that he would go with the republicans, as it was by a combination against the democratic candidate he was eleoted. An ordinance has been introduced in to the Chicago council, allowing' the south side street railway company to put in an endless under-ground oable to UBe in operating their cars. It is the same contrivance that has been success' fully used in other oities. The cost of the new machinery will be about $100,000 per mile, and will average $2£00,000. A board of naval officers will meet January 6th to consider the case of each commissioned officer on the-aotive list below the grade of rear admiral, and re port to the secretary of the navy for his consideration the date from whioh, in its judgment, the length of servioe of officers should be estimated in determin ing their precedence under existing law. The Fargo Argus agrees with the Press and Dakotaian upon the proposi tion that the salaries of territorial judges are too small, touching upon the subject as follows: With more reapouibility, with a doMll time* more work tout any United States circuit judge they are kept on salaries amounting to a mere pittance, oootoMted with the amount of stand ing in the .profession, ability and experience demanded, lor men in their position. It there arp snj public officials who are overpaid it cer tainly cannot be territorial judges. The controversy between Senators Conkling and Bayard relative to the lat ter's Dover speeoh, is not ended.'It is said that soon after the holiday reoess Mr. Conkling will rise to a question of personal privilege and make speech whioh will include a full history of the Phelps-Dodge case, and put the senator from Delaware in a veiy unenviable po sition. Delegate Bennett, in a private letter, correots our statement relative to the terms of Senator Paddoek's bill for the admission of Dakota. He writes: "Sen ator Paddock's bill does not propose the admission of the territory with its pres ent boundaries, but is a oopy of my bill, and was introduced by him at my re quest, for the purpose, of facilitating its consideration in the senate." It was telegraphed to various newspapers that the Paddock bill called for the admission of Dakota as a whole, but we are glad to be corrected upon this point and to be able to tender to Senator Paddock our apologies for assisting in misrepresenting him to the people of Dakota. The officers of the land offices at Far go, Grand Forks and Crookston have united in recommending to congress the adoption of a provision that "where there may be climatic reasons the commission er of the general land office may, in his discretion, allow settlers under the home stead and pre-emption laws to be absent from their claims, without prejudice to their rights under said laws, from the fif teenth day of November, in each year, until the first day of April following, un der such rules and regulations as he may prescribe provided that before any set tler shall be allowed to perfect* an entry under the pre-emption law, or to perfect title under the homestead law by com mutation to a. oash entry, said settler shall be required to prove actual cultiva tion and improvement of the tract claim ed, and an actual continuous residence on said land for at least six months next preceding said entry." This provision is made for the purpose of protecting set tlers who are compelled to abandon their claims during the cold months of winter. After discussing the subject with gen tlemen familiar with the surveys of Da kota we can reach no other conclusion than that Judge Bennett is right in sel ecting the 46 th parallel instead of the 7th standard parallel as the northern boun dary of the future state of Dakota. The latter has been carried out only as far west as +he Missouri river and our in formants are of the opinion that it will have to be corrected—at any rate they do not consider it as steadfast a boun dary line as a parallel of latitude. The 7th standard is not a continuous line, there being a jog in crossing the Sisseton reservation. By employing it as a boun dary a portion of Kichland county would be chopped off and this is the only settled county along either of the two parallel under discussion. The 46th runs through counties which have never been subdivided —whioh are unoccupied —and it would be a very easy matter for a party of surveyors to cause township and seotional lines to conform to the proposed boundary line. They would have very little work to undo, the course of the 46th being in this respect the most|favorable latitudinal line in Dakota for the proposed division. At first glance it appeared that the use of this parallel for a boundary line would seriously embarass settlers by cutting through their possessions, but the fact that there are no settlers along the line west of Richland oonnty does away with this objection. It will be better for all sections to agree upon the 46th parallel and not give truth to the recent damaging remark of a member of the congressional oommittee on territories— that the people of Dakota could not themselves agree upon a northern boun daiy lor their proposed state. v"5* COMING EVENTS. As Progaostleated by Political Writer. Bpecwl to the Chicago Inter-Ooean. New York, Dec. 26.—A Washington dispatch says: It is now generally con ceded that a contest between General Garfield and the stalwart wing of the republican party is not entirely impro bable. It is averrod that President Garfield will meet with a much more in tense opposition than Mr. Hayes evei experienced after the 4th of next March, unless the stalwarts are treated with that consideration whioh they olaim as a right, in view of a possible struggle be tween the stalwart and anti-stalwart wings of the republican party. The per sonal political status of enoh republican senator who will fill a seat after March 4, is a matter of interest. If there is a Hp-lit it will be oarefully waged in the senate over the confirmation of ap pointments made by the inooming president. At present the stalwart, or anti-Hayes, senators are in the majority. The new senators to be eleoted this win ter by the republican legislatures will decide whether or not a successful fight can be waged against General Garfield. The demooratio senators, if they fail to have a majority in the senate, will be able to decide any question where there is a division between the republicans in the event of a fight. The following named senators whose terms do not ex pire on the 4th of March are estimated in sympathy with the feeling of tho stalwart wing of the party: Messrs. Teller.and Hal, of Colorado Logan, of Illinois Allison, of Iowa Plnmb and In galls, of Kansas Kellopg, of Louisiana Jones, of Nevada" Rollins of New Hamp shire: Conkling, of New York Cameron, of Pennsylvania, and Carpenter, of Wis consin. There are circumstances whioh render the action of Messrs. Edmunds, Windom, and Blair somewhat uncertain. The former is naturally an ultra radical, in complate accord with the stalwarts. It is announced on veiy high authority, however, that Mr. Edmunds will be ap pointed associate justice of the supreme court in plaoe of Justice Hunt. If he desires this prospective honor he would the next administration. scarcely oppose Mr. Windom wi was warm in his fealty to Conkling last winter, and the latter was first to suggest that Windom would make a good republican president. Mr. Win dom will probably act with the stalwarts, but he is not regarded as a probably ao tive opponent of the next administration. Neither is Mr. Blaine. The following senators are relied upon to support Pres ident Garfield: Messrs. Piatt, of Con necticut Kirk wood, of Iowa Blaine, of Maine Hoar, of Massachusetts Ferry, of Miohigan Saunders, of Nebraska Anthony and Burnside, of Rhode bland, and Morrill of Vermont. Of the new senators, Mr. Kernan's successor in New York will, it is calculated, be a stalwart, and a friend of Conkling. E. Hale, the probable successor of Senator Hamlin, ''of Maine, will hardly join with the fac tion, but the New York senator's friends claim him as a supporter in case of any dispute. Congressman Hawley, of Con necticut, who is counted upon as the successor of Senator Eaton, will be a de voted adherent of President Garfield, and the Hon. John Sherman, of Ohio, will also support the administration. Should General Garfield be in perfect accord with both wings of the party, it is calculated that there will be a lively con test for suptemaoy for the next four years between Sherman and Blaine on 1 he one side and Conkling and Arthur On the other. There is a probability of the election of a republican senator to succeed Mr. Bailey by the Tennessee legislature, and Horace Maynard is the most talked of for the senatorship if the Tennessee republicans make the combi nation they are seeking, Gen. Mahone of Virginia, is relied upon to stand by the stalwarts, and he will play a promi nent part in a scheme for the reorgan ization of the republican party in the south. He does not desire to come out openly at the start and vote for a reor ganization of the senate, but the repub licans claim that he will do so if it is actually necessary. There are eight states, the legislatures of which will elect senators this winter, whose action in case of a rupture within the party cannot be predicted in advance of their selection. These states are California, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Wiscon sin. As the outlook is now, the stalwart senators are in a slight majority, but the approaching elections may transfer the balance to the other side. The demo crats are calculating upon holding the balance of power in case of any republi can division. J"lentu of Money To loan at eight per cent on improved farms. J. PABKER HAYWABD, Yankton, D. T.

If anyone wants a first class TENNESSEE'S DEBT. Ei-Qor, Porter Says the People Have De elded to Pay—Meaning of the Lito Election. New York Herald. Ex-Gov. James D. Porter, of Tennes see, the leader of the high credit foroes in that state, and the man who has done more to battle the repudiationists' than any other, perhaps, is registered at the New York liotel. A representative of the Herald sent his card to Gov. Porter's room last evening, and was answered by the governor himself. He is a youngish man, ereot, handsome and genial, with little in his person to show for the stern and terrible fight he has made for the past few years. ''The unmistakable meaning of the late election," he said in reply to a ques tion, "is that the people of Tennessee tend to settle their debt honorably, ennessee ln- —norably, I pledged my administration squarely to that issue—the last administration was put on a different issue—and in the late eleotion the people for the first time had an opportunity to vote direotly and in telligently. The result was decisive and gratifying." "Do Savage and Wilson and the low oredit leaders realize the import of the popular verdict "I think they understand that the peo ple of Tennessee are determined that their debt shall be -honorably settled, They can not help but know it." "What is the amount of the debt "It is about 825,000,000, interest and all, but the whoWof it will not be olaimed. We can carry the debt easily by a tax of twenty-five cents on the $100, or two and one-half mills. The holders of the state bonds made a great mistake in a circular they issued on a opposed 4 plan, which meant the payment of 50 per cent, in 4 per cont. bonds. This cir cular the spread or the rept and led to the fear that the bondholders would demand more than the people could be brought to agree to. But that is all right now, and the people have overwhelmingly said that Tennessee's honor must be maintained. The bond holders, I may say also, occupy more reasonable ground now, and I do not doubt a just and equitable settlement will be reaohed without further trouble. It has been a very hard fight, but the heart of our people has always been right." "Will you be able to elect a demo cratic senator with the incoming legis lature?" "I think so—though it is very close. My impression is that a democrat will be elected, most probably some one who has not been prominently connected with either wing of the party in the late struggle The state is fairly and decid edly democratic. The Savage-Wilson men are democrats and have never been anything else. And while the republi can governor-elect, Mr. Hawkins, will make a good executive, having always been a respectable and upright man, I do not think the split in the party will be continued to the further benefit of the republicans.'' "Is Tennessee prosperous and pro gressive?" "Never so much so perhaps. Every section, every The people are and the future ii Tennessee is but a sample of the entire south, as-far as I know. There is unex ampled prosperity and activity all about us. The south is rapidly improving its condition, paying off its debts, aud pressing forward to its full and perfect development." Gov. Porter left by a south-bound train last night for Nashville, where he is installed as president of the Nashville and Chattanooga railroad. THE P0NCAS. They Sign an Agreement to Remain in the Indian Territory. Washington, Dec, 27.—The Ponca In dian chiefs to-day had another long in terview with Secretary Schurz at the in terior department. Standing Buffalo and White Eagle, the principal spokes men, on making known their wants, seemed anxious about a school-house and educational facilities for their chil dren. Secretary Schurz informed them that the school-house now being built would be pushed to completion as rap idly as possible. He also told them he hoped the pending Indian severalty bill would be passed during the present ses sion of congress, and that as soon as it became a law each one of them would be given arfarm, a title to which would be as valid as that of the white man's. At the conclusion, and after the explana tions by Secretary Schurz, the chiefs signed a paper that they had requested to be drawn up in which they said they desired to remain on the lands now oc cupied by the Poncas in Indian territory, and establish permanent homes there and also expressed their willingness to relinquish all their right and interest in all the lands formerly owned and occu ied by the Ponca tiibe in the state of Nebraska and territory of Dakota. In compensation for the land, as well as for the property at the time of the removal to Indian territory in 1877, and for the depredations committed on them by the Sioux, they ask congress to appropriate the sum of $248,000, the same sum asked for in the bill submitted by the interior department about two years ago. After enumerating some purposes for which they desire to have this sum ex pended or invested, the paper closes as follows: We declare this to be an expression of our free will and desire, as well as that of our people at present residing on the Ponca reservation gin Indian territory, and we ask that this declaration and re quest be submitted to the congress of the United States for its favorable con sideration, and action. The paper bears the signatures of the Ponca chiefs present and the certificates of the interpreters. The chiefs, through their spokesman, to-day reiterated that they,had concluded to take this action, not upon their own notion, but upon full consultation with all the members ot the tribe in In dian territory, and now wanted to go to work and be left undisturbed by outside interference.

THE B0REAN BLAST.. Which Prevailed During the Past Two Da.vft HUN ltlookHdeU the Kallrottd* and Put a Stop to Traffic. The late fall of snow and the Revere northwest wind which Jias prevailed for the past day or two, by filling up outs with snow, has added so much to the dif ficulties the railroads were already labor ing under on, account of the scarcity of fuel, that for the time being the running of all trains on all the lines of the Chi cago, Milwaukee St. Paul road west of Mnson City has been suspended. as. H. Lane, 25th infantry, has been re voked. G. A. Criohet, principal of the public schools of Elk Point, arrived last eve ning to take part in the teaoliers' in stitute. Yesterday the passenger train between Yankton and Sioux City made its usual trips on time, but the train on the Sioux Falls line was less fortunate. It started out from Sioux Falls, with a supply of corn for fuel, but on reaching the cuts four miles below Sioux Falls it encoun tered snow drift four hundred feet long which was too muoh for it to buck through, and, under instructions from Master Mechanic Moulton, returned to Sioux Falls, and has not since made an attempt to got out. The wind and snow of last night increased the difficulties, and instructions were issued this morn ing that no trains would move to-day on any of the lines of the C., M. A- St. P. road west of Mason City, Iowa. The cuts are all full of snow, and while the weather continues as it is now. it would bo work thrown away to endeavor to clear them. The regular passenger train, and the paymaster's train which arrived here last night, not only on account of the snow blockade but the exhaustion of the fuel supply, made no effort to leave this morning, and will remain where they are until the regular hour for departing to morrow morning. Mr. Moulton to-day purchased fifty bushels of corn with which to run the trains to Elk Point, where there is some coal yet on hand. Every effort will be made to-morrow to remove all existing difficulties, and put all trains iu motion on their regular time. TEA TEA TEA! The best in town. Try it and be con vinced. STINE St. ENNS.
