One of the directors of the Northern
Pacific ro-td to day said that the Ore
gon Navigation was negotiating with
the Union Pacific and the Northern
Pacific roads, and the directors of that
corporation would lease their road to
the one of the last two named which

This company was an outgrowth of
the printing house of Sterling
P. Rounds, now government
printer, and since iris accession to
that great office has been managed by
his son, S. P. Rounds. Jr, The Rounds
house was well known throughout the
printing offices of the northwest, and
few' have not dealt with it more or
less.
Dressed Meats.
The health officers of St. Paul have
for some time suspected that western
cattle afflicted with "lumpy jaw" were
being killed at Minnesota Transfer and
the dressed meat sold for consumption.
Dr. Hoyt, the city health officer, by
good detective work has managed to
catch one butcher in the act, and he
will.be fully prosecuted. Cattle own
ers sell such diseased animals in St.
Paul for a small price as they are not
allowed in the Chicago market.
More Shops.
The Northern Pacific company has
concluded the purchase of sixty acres
of land in the northwestern part of
St. Paul for the erection of new shops.
The plans of these buildings have
been drawn and approved by the offi
cials of the Northern Pacific, and the
work of construction will be commenc
ed as soon as a few minor prelimina
ries are arranged.

Cyrus W. Field is back to St. Paul
after his trip over the Northern and
Canadian Pacific roads. He is delight
ed with what he saw, especially of the
Northern Pacific country. He says
there is not a mile of country along
this road that will not bring a good
carrying trade. All it needs is the
people and they are coming. He says
;he political centre of the United
States will yet be west of the Missis
sippi.

Ravages of Wolves.
The whole of Northern Wyoming,
particularly that part of the country
east of the Big Horn mountains, is in
1'ested by coyotes and the gray wolf.
Starvation, doubtless, has driven
them into a country wdiere they ean
feed on calve«* and «sometimes full
grown cattle. The loss from this
source is greater than many suppose.
The Conrad-Hurlbut Land and Cattle
company alone estimate that they
have lost three hundred head. There
is only one effective method of deci
mating wolves, and that is by poison
ing them. All the cattle companies
will furnish the necessary article—
strychnine—to those who wish to em
ploy their time in the pursuit of wolf
pelts and the reward per head offered
by the territory foi each wolf slain.—

Indian becomes a citizen
The Indian as a Wire Puller.
Mandan Pioneer: It is said that the
ndians are by nature wire pullers and
shrewd tacticians. They would,
therefore, make good politicians.
Some time ago, when Major Mc
aughlin announced that the census
>f the Sroux would be taken, the
chiefs of the different bands set them
selves to work vigorously to enlarge
their respective bands. They schem
ed and bribed and resorted to all sort»
of shrewd tricks to have their bands
enlarged, thinking, of course, that the
dignity and power of a chief in the
eyes of the government depended
argely. on the number of braves
in his band. A chief would,
therefore, stealthilv visit the
camp of a rival chief and take away
by persuasion and promises all the
families and teepes lie could pers »ade
to go with him. In their rival at
tempts to enlarge the bands, the filgh
est diplomatic tactics were often dis
played, showing that the Indian is by
nature a tactician. Secret caucuses
were often held, where strong combi
nations were made between a certain
number of chiefs. These combina
tions were intended to work to the
mutual advantage of all parties to the
contract, and they resulted oftentimes
very much likethe political combina
tions of the white man in his territo
rial orstate conventions. When the
