Meteorologically speaking, no one knows what an hour will bring forth in South Dakota, but the atmospheric eccentricities that have marked this spring and summer have all been forgiven becdtse the great national holiday at Pine Ridge was, so far as nature could assist. a decided success. ‘The sun rose from a cloudless horizon and made luminous a landscape that Was at times almost beautifal. Away to the northwest were visible the dark outlines of @ portion of the Black Hills and some faint idea | could be seeured of the majesty of Harney s Peak, ninety miles distant. The nearer cleva- tions were varied in their tints, ranging from Jeep purple, through hues of russet aud green, to the bright yellow of sunflower patches. ‘Tepees dotted the plateaus and fringed the creeks, while ponies were seatzered, 60 to speak, from Dan to Leersieba. Indians ure not, os a rule, early risers, but a good many of them were up with the sun that morning, for before the civilized residents of Pine Kidge bad wed their incipient chickens aud dis posed of the muatutinal coffve there were Jengthy strings of wagons approaching the agency from three or Zour different directions. The invitation to celcbrate was being accepted. PUEPABING FOR THE FOOT RACES. Ten o'clock was the hour at which the tield sports were to commence, but so consistently procrastinating was the Indian that it was fully 11 before there was anything like @ reasonably large crowd on the “bar” just above Wolf creek «ia tritle north of the agency. The judges and starters and many others of the white per- suasion were on hand in good season and waited with more than Job-like patience for the eom- ing of their gu Capt.

Ten minutes later and the sunflowers which bad grown tall between the wheel marks were removed and there was a flat piece of prairie upon which four men might run abreast without crowding.

In the matter of costume the 20-yard dash was probably the most successful event of the day.

He was after the two dollars which awaited the fleetest,and he did not propose to allow a little matter like a shirt or two to stand between him and the Iucre. He unhesitatingly and gracefully shed big garments, and won the race amid a chorus of yells that made one think of that long-vanished day in Washington when the home team won a real game of baso ball. “PICKET PIN” MIsSINO. For more than half an hour “Picket Pin” stood near the finish and awaited the coming of an opponent. This was not an inanimate pitket pin: it was e live Indian, who has a rep- Utation Lereabouts as # wrestler. The man who could secure for his antagonist two falls out of three was to become the proud possessor of $3. Presently the second man appeared in the shape of s mixed blood named Morrison, aud just about that time “Picket Pin” was missed from the scene of his recent yocal | activity. He evidently did not want any Mor- | rison in his, Had it not been for “Picket Pin's” discretion we would have witnessed a wrestling match in which the “Pin” wouid in all human probability bave been driven into the earth. It was past noon and the sun's heat was in- tense, but when the criers announced the George long-distance championship. race (so culled because Col. J. A. George of Washington nated the prizes) four willing men appeared at the stert—one a mixed blood elad in civil- ized garb, the others Indians in a state of savage undress, ‘Tue run was long and promo- tive of perspiration—no one kuows the dis- tunce—and the honors went to Levi Blue Horse and to Iron Horse, the former getting $3, the latter #2, Iron Horse did not make anything out of it, though, for he mashed one of his great toes at least’ ¥5 worth. INDIANS WIN THE TUG OF WAR, An inter-racial contest was the tug of war. Nine members of company D, eighth’ United States infantry, secured @ pretty solid grip on one end of a heavy rope and declared their in- tention of hauling nine Indians all over the face of creation. The scheme was a good one and would have worked admirably had not the Indians and half-breeds refused to be party toit. It was worth ¢3 to pull the center of that rope over a line and the aboriginal team triumphed, while several hundred Ogulallas and Lruies indulged in gleeful whoops of the | most extravagantly loud deseription, Nebo:lv could hope to describe the satisfaction apparent on the Indian visages when the result of the | struggle was announced. ‘The soldiers were not over-pleased, though. ‘Their team was a scratch sort ot an affair, muscular but lighter by three or four hundred pounds than the In- dian nine. Other sports had been arranged for on the program, but there was difficulty in securing a sutticier of Indian contestants, so the morn- ing’s exercise and amusement was brouglt to anend with the releasing among the multitude of a pretty thoroughly greased pig. the animal to become the property of the captor who could | secure a primary bold on either the tail, a leg oranear.

He could run at aspced which put to shame the records of his ancestors who have a niche in the temple of scriptural history be- cause of the spurt they made down a steep place into the seaand he had as much vicious- | ness in his make-up us even Satan himself could inject into him. Everybody wanted that pig and about everybody tried to yet him when we was released. ‘The rules and regulations promulgated for the guidance of competitors | were disregarded and before the unfortunate poreine quadruped had an opportunity to get warmed up he was completely surrounded. A soldier got him «nd, realizing that a struggle would jbe made to relieve Lim of his prize, clasped piggy in his arms and rolled over back ward. R fell to my lot to rescue the victor and when Lhad puiled about sixteen Indians aud mixed bloods off the top of the heap both soldier and pig were somewhat masked. The soldier was happy. though. He had saved his bacon. Four of his comrades reiieved him of his greasy burden; each took a leg, and in th inverted and undignitied manner the grunting cloven-hoct was carried down to camp. THREE THOUSAND INDIAXS FEASTING. Then came the feasting. All the morning several hundred squaws had been at work un- der the supervision of Iame Clerk Robert Pugh, and when the sports were concluded every- body's appesite was in good condition. ‘len huge stecrs had been butchered and cooked and with the meat were served other edibles and drinkables. Two thousand five hundred pounds of bard tack. 200 pounds of coffee, 400 | pounds of sugar, 700 pounds of bacon and 200 pounds of rice were handed out early in the day and prepared for consumption. When all was ready the male Indians seated them-elves in at was originally invended to be a buge cir- the squaws who bad something to do busied themseives, while those whore work wi concluded squatted around the periphery and ate that which the lordly savages were pleased togive.

Mr. Fin- | use Was appropriately decorated, e ly and internally, and especially patriotic was the artistic work evident In the prepara- tion of the dinner table; even the food seemed to be tinted red, white and blue. Atd p.m. the horse races commenced. If it be truc dat only depraved people go to horse races, then is ita lamentable fact’ that Pine Ridge is in a state of utter depravity, for everybody went down to the Loafer Camp to watch the fleeting steeds. Those who ought to know say that the races were remarkably in- teresting. The disiveation of a horses’ shoulde> by a fall and the raising of a sum of money for the unfortunate owner were the more exciting features of the afternoon until on returning to the agency we found thirty or forty squaws, guily clad, indulging in that never-fuiling sopo- rifie—a squaw dance. THE FIREWORKS. ‘There were not as many Indians in to ace the fireworks as some of the entertainers had ex- pected, but a large number of more or less no- ble red men occupied points of vantage on neighboring hills until the last rocket had gone up, the last’ bomb exploded, the final balloon suiled away. ‘ihe display of pyrotechnics was highiy satisfactory in every way, most of the work being done by Mr. C. H. Little, one of the agency farmers, but the crowd behaved oddly. Every piece of fireworks was so exploded that it yuld be seen from the ageney, yet the multi- tude of Indians and mixed bloods and nufier- ous whites insisted on remuining to the rear aud on one side of the rough framework, which had been hastily erected to facilitate matters, Of course the rockets and. geysers and bombs aud Loman candies were just as easily visible from the rear as from the front, but even the keeuest-eyed must have found it dificult to ac- curately estimate the beauties of a fine sixteen- inch vertical wheel when there was a heavy piece of seuntling 8 an interrupting object di- reetly in the line of vision. There were no ac- cidents, although the first. two | or three ‘flights of rockets did scare a number of poniesand cansed some disturbance in the breasts of those who had never behold a large and muscular skyrocket on a rampage. Some little diversion was created when numer- ous boys threw sticks and stones at two of the ascending balloons, and hit them, too, much to the apparent delight of the Jndian policemen, who were supposed to be on the ground for the parpose of preventing such ebullitions of play- "The last balloon succeeded in vetting itselt on fire, perished ingloriously within twenty yards from its starting point and, so far as tie gencral public was concerned, the first Fourth of July Pine Ridge ever had wus over. ‘There werea few souls, however, who yearned for more distinction and moro holiday, so « serenading party was organized.

Gro. H. Hl Sen THE FINANCIAL SITUATION. Secretary Foster's Views us to the Condition of the United States Treasury. ‘ME CONSIDERS THAT THERE ARE ABUNDANT RE- SOURCES TO PAY ALL THE APPROPRIATIONS OF ‘THE LAST CONGRESS AND BELIEVES THAT THE APPROPRIATIONS WERE JUSTIFIABLE. The following editorial signed by Secretary Foster appeared in the New York Recorder yes terday: The republican party has now been in control of the administrative branches of the government a little over two years, and during that period it has also bad control of both houses of Congress for the first time in years. With this lease of power it has performed more in the way of beneiicial legislation and wise ad- ministration than has been accomplished dur- ing any similar period since the foundation of the government, with the exception, of course, of the extraordinary times of war and the con- structive legislation immediately following the adoption of the Constitution. Of some of this work time alone can tell the effect: of other portions of it the country is already beginning to reap the benefits. ‘The appropriations made by the Inst Con- gress were, It is charged, larger in amount than has ever before been the case. Our dem- ocratie critics have named it the billion dollar Congress. We reply that this iva billion dol- jar country, and when they denounce the ex- travagance ‘of appropriation in mass wo chailenge them to criticise it in detail and point out such items as could better have been | omitted with due regard to the growth and | constantly increasing demands of the United | States. Ido not pretend to say that all the appropriations made were beyond criticism, but in every instance it will be found that such appropriations as, were improper were sup- ported as much by democrats as by republi- caus. Appropriations made for government purposes are properly aubject only to the in- uiries, “ly the treasury in such fianeial con~ dition as to be able to pay them? and are they, in the light of the necessities of the people, justitiable” If these two questions can be answered affirmatively no reasonable objection can be made to the appropriations. According to the estimate of Senator Allison, which I regard as the best anthority, the in- crease in the appropriations for the years 1891 and 1892 over the two years of Is8i and 18 | was $170,000.00. Of this increase 22,600,000 was fof the portal service. It we bear in wind that the increase in postal receipts for the fiscal year 1891 over the fiscal year 1895 were £22, 560,000. it will be seen that this increase simply represents the growth of the country and is not an appropriation in the ordinary incaning of the term. All that the government really pays out of the postal appropriation is the dit ference between the receipts for postage and the expense of the service, amounting annually to £5,000 000 or $6,000,000. In regard to tae $113,900.00 increase on aceonnt of pensions it, is hardly necessary tc say anything at this time. Ido net believe that the democratic party as a whele is yet prepared to object to a suitable provision for those who imperiled their lives That the Union might live. Neither is the in- creased appropriation of $11,000,000 for new ships and for the navy one to which any intel- ligent man will object, expecially in view of events of recent occurrence. Let ns hope that no feeling of unwise economy will intervene to prevent the development of our mavy until it pecomes the pride of the nation and an incal- culable assistance to our diplomacy. ‘The increased appropriations for the Agricul- tural Department have already justified ihem- selves in the revival of agriculiure in every part of the land and in the placing of our meat products on. firm footing in the markets of the world. ‘The inerease i the river and har- bor appropriations is $5,003,000, but aside trom the general question of the advisability of gen- erous uppropriations for internal improve- meuts itis not probable that any southwestern democrat at least will object to the approprin- tion of $6,000,000 for the improvement of Gal- veston harbor, nor will any one seriously de- nounce the increase of 23,000,000 for harbor defense. jo demoeratic governor has yet shown any reluctance to apply for his state's share of the $15,000,000 appropriated for the refunding of the direct tax. The appropria- tions for public buildings were neariy hulf a millon dollars less than in the Fifteth Cone gress. Itis a favorite pastime of democratic orators and editors to announce thet the bankrupt treasury will not be able to meet the obiign- tions thirust apon it by the Fifty-tirst Congress. ‘The present aciministration has paid $234,000.00 of the bonded debi of the country. Some time ago I ventured to make the prediction, speak- ing from # thorough knowledge of the subject, that we should have money evougk to mect ali the expenditures of the government and add @ handsome sum to that already paid on the bonded debt of the country. 4 ai glad to tuke advantage of this opportunity to repeat | the prediction. | Within the last ten days the Treasury De- partment bas proposed an extension at 2 per cent of $51,000,000 of 4), per cent bouds, puy- ment of which’ is optionei on September 1. ‘This has beeu done in the hope that by ex- tending the bonds the national banks would be induced to buy them as the basis for the issue of additional circulating notes, and we have reason to believe that from the recep- tion already given the proposition we shall be able to add about 25,000,000 in national bank notes to the circulation of the country.
