The committee appointed by the Lin- coln club to invite President-elect Garfield to visit this city, returned from Mentor yesterday, and reported that the general would visit this clty sometime within the next two weeks, if the day the committen appointed would suit his convenience, ‘The Cabinet Makers. Washingten Special to The Chicago Tribune. It is Zow known that nothing oc- curred between Gen. Garfield and Mr. Sherman durivg the former's re- ©ent visit to Washington that looked to retaining the secretary at the head of the treasury dopartment. Gen. Garfield did not hesitate to eay that it trould embarrass him to bz obliged to make known any conclusions as to persons before the time in February when the declaration of the electoral count is mede. He further enid that, 28 he now viewed the matter, it might seriously embarrass him to ask Mr. Sherman to remain. As to what the situation might prove to be a little later, he could not mow judge. So fac as has been learned by those who have been EXCEEDINGLY ANXIOUS TO ASCERTAIN whether any part of the cabinet problem has been sclved, Gen. Gar- tiald expressed no preferences, as to ¥ersons, though he asked & nitmber o7 callers as to lheir views. For in- s%ance, several were asked what they thought of Senator Blaine for the treasury. The only definito expres- sion of opinion by Gen. Garfield that has become known in regard to the trensury, is one to the effect that,cor.- tidering the magnitude of the New York custom house and its necessary relation to New Yorkpolitigs, it woald not be best tohave a New York man oor oen Jisipd 14 o7 | Sullivan Morey for perjury, and Louis Poet, and Charles L.

Denver Tribune. The Colorado Farmer, in an article on Gould’s work in the state, says: ““And while doing these good things, he will be binding the chains of his enormous and soulless corporations around the interests and prosperity of our people, will tighten the pressure Im to the point where the people can ive and moderately prosper and not rebel. The great additional percent- age of their gains will be by his skill- fal, artfol and superb management, added to his already enormous wealth. Now is the time for our people to erect legal safeguards for the protection of their rights and their future welfare, They must no longer listen to the de- lusive plea, ‘Wait until their roads are £nished and then we will regulate them.” We say if you wait until then you will be powerless to help your- selves. Look at Califcrnia.” The allusion to California is an apt one. No state has suffsred more from railroad tyranny than the leading one on the Pacific coast. There the rail- roads have the people by the throat. They make what rates they please, and” maintain them. If the wheat crop is large the roads arrange their Tatio of freights. Ii the wheat crop is small they arrange their ratlo of freights. In cither event they come out ahead and the farmer always be- hind. Fally one-half of the stagna- tion of businessin Colifcrnia to-day is due solely to the tyranny of rail- roads. This more than anything else, carried through the new constitution. Gould has done nothing for Colora- do. He has not built a mile of road in the state. It has been his policy to sbsorb, not to construct. He1s a dan- gerous man, aod one who must be held down by every obstruction which leg- islation can suppiy. Where is there amerchant in Colorado who can trath- fully say that Gould has worked for the common interests of the state? The freight tariff which he has estab- lished is enormous and exorbitant. The passenger tariff which he has established has been in keeping. His course has been one which can call forth no defense. He has exacted every ounce of flesh and taken the blood, too, and he will, if he car, carry his power even further. It may as well be recognized now as at any other time that Jay Gould is & dan- gerous man, and that every step in advance he takes will be a step back- wards for the state. Whatever can be done to cut down his strength " | ehould be done. Three of & Kind. Speciat Dispiten to the Bee.

The suit brought by the Ponca teibe of Indians plaintiff, Makh-pi-lu-tab, or Red Cloud, in hi own behalf and in behalf Sioux nation of Indians, defendants, was decided by Judge Dandy, in the United States clrcuit court, yester- day. This suit was brought by Messrs. Poppleton and Webster, who have prosecuted the various suits on behalf of the noble red man during the past two years, and was an action in eject- ment instituted for the purpose of de- termining the title of the Poncas to the lands ceded to them by the United States under the treaty of 186 In every provision of this treaty, d in the treaty of 1838, the Ponca tribe is the party treated with by the United States, and by that the title became vested in them as a tribe. Byatticle 1 of the treaty of 1865 the Poncas ceded and relinguished to the United States s portion of their present resecvation, estimated to con- tain 30,000acres.
