More stupid blundering. Another instance of the incapacity of the there is a big kick among the Legal Frater decidedly Strong and vigorous kick find it a being directed with a Good Deal of Force against attorney general margin and his department. It a the same old More official negligence of stupendous stupid Ity or erase ignorance of perhaps worse and this time it a Likely to Cost a number of people not a Little Money and considerable inconvenience. In Ethoil through careless and Hasty legislation last a Aaion to number of executions against persons in certain portions of the Provias Are at pres ent just about Worth the paper they Are writ ten on. When the act respecting the bound Aries of municipalities was passed by which the boundaries were changed in numerous instances and new municipalities created by the Union of i a Siuting ones part of the municipalities of Argyle and Derby in Southern Manitoba Weie transferred from the Eastern to the Western judicial District but in the legislation no provision whatever was made for the Transfer of writs of elocution against goods and then in Force in that portion of the country. The result is that there is no Power now to enforce Thane executions. So far a executions against Gooda Are concerned concurrent writs can be issued but this a impossible regarding fifa lands they having been abolished in the Spring of 1389. These will require remedial legislation it the doming to revive them. Thin is aggravating enough to the holders of execution so but it is not tie worst. Thanks to the Legal acumen for which the department is noted and the great Caie exercised in revising legislation Ai other part of the province up around Gimli is left entirely out of the reach of sheriffs ant i sheriffs officers altogether. In this Happy 1 iome for every Man is sheriff proof a and will remain to until the sea son comes around again for the attorney general to tinker and revise and Amend the bad legislation already passed. In this tract of country Thi Alno Man s land there is some property to the Lake win lumber yid Trad Nipes transportation ing co., against which company executions Are now in existence bub this property can not be seized even by a regiment of sheriffs. It a Safe there against the creditors a if it were in Mexico or Behring sea it is no wonder then that a great Many people Are very anxious for an Early meeting of the legislature Whoso time it is confidently expected will be largely taken up in remedying the blunders of the badly prepared ill considered and Hasty legislation of the More probably in passing new and equally vexations and stupid Laws.

Antiquity of a wedding custom. Doubtless the majority of Parsons thin that the custom of n bridegroom being Ai tended at his marriage by a Friend or rela Tive who id popularly termed his bes is of modern origin. Nevertheless it is of great Antiquity hating Bun prac tired by the Early saxons in those Day marriages were invariably celebrated a the House of the to room. The Day preset ius such in important event was spent in feasting and preparing for the approach aug ceremony All of Tho bridegroom friends and relatives taking part in Thi festivities. Next came the Groom s company mounted on horseback and armed Iron head to foot. They proceeded in state in regular older of family procedure under the command of an individual Callet the or Foremost to receive and conduct the Bride in safety to the House of her future husband. The blushing Maiden was attended by Hei guardian and male relatives led by a stately Matron who bore the name o. And followed by a goodly array of Young damsels who wire known As it was from this ceremony therefore that we of the present Day derived our ens torn of having at weddings a Best the sax Oft Foremost Man of ten centuries ago being the prototype of that almost in dispensable personage.

John Campbell formerly a freighter to the Indian country anal an upper Missouri River Boatman says he Bas witnessed Sev eral incidents wherein Savage barbarity was pitted against the White Man s strategy. In each instance the ravages were paid Buck in .1 Aitoro than Deci Mally in creased ratio for the damage done. One Case occurred Iti the Vicinity of old fort Boise. Indians had done great injury to a Mau named. James beef with. They gloated Over what they had done. They were Large in number the Whitcr were Small and for business arid other reasons it was deemed impossible to Wngo open warfare. The situation however was such that it was deemed Best to curtail the Power thu indians As they were inso Lent and threatening Beckwith went Down the Missouri River to a place where smallpox existed. Hoob trained smallpox virus in a form that could be easily transported. One Story was that he carried the Poison in an air tight canis Ter like Orrun Gemont. When he readied his destination he intent Etc some clothing which was immediately put in Possession of the indians so that the poisonous germs of the smallpox which Are lived would not lose their Efficacy. The result was that the epidemic broke out and in creased to a pestilence. In More than so por cent of the cases the disease to Suino the confluent and the Hemorrhagic forms and Tiro fatality was not fur from 100 per cent. In their delirium scores ran to the River and death was thus accelerated in its approach. The White men shut themselves up in what was called the old f 011, a Large abandoned Structure a Large part of which was m Ade of Frame. Here the indians Pesti Lence Start Olcen flocked. They humbly came to the White Man whom they had so recently abused and exulted Over in their brutal Savage Way. After the abandoned old fort had been converted from a Lazar House to a Charnel House by the action of disease the Means of egress were barred and in order to stamp out Tho contagion fire was applied. Scores of dead bodies were consumed. Tha contagion was thus stamped out the Power of the indians was broken without the loss of a single White Man and the insults avenged. This occurred Between forty and fifty years ago. On another occasion a Young German who Wais employed in it menial capacity in a private fort of a. A of Trey in ignorance or otherwise disregarded instructions Given him and on a certain occasion when there was danger strayed from the fort about a Quarter of a mile. Lie was killed by indians and Cut into Small pieces. Title mutilated remains were then left As a warning to the Whites of Tho indians prowess. Just As in the smallpox Case the Whites did not appear to notice the in dignity and also in in the smallpox Case the Indiana regarded this As an indication of cowardice. The indians however kept away for a Hoit time after the murder to Seo what would be done. Then they came around to Trade. This fort bail an Alley like Entrance guarded by door or Gate like arrangements at each extremity. The sides were walled or boarded High. To White men managed to gel Tho Alley full of indians. They had previously allowed indians in Here after the murder in order to disarm suspicion. The Whites opened the outside barriers but placed behind a thin inside Barrier a masked Cannon. The was heavily Loar lad with Iron slhgt., parts of Black Smith shop refuse and material of that nature. Without warning this was Dis charged into the packed mass of Savages. A moment inter the narrow Way was filled with dead and mangled indians. The outer Way was ii hut and others were killed. Fora Long time after this the Indiana were Well behaved. Frontiersmen say that if Eastern senti mentality did not prevail to Tho extent of interference with the army movements and with the action of men who thoroughly understand the Indian character at every turn the Indian problem would soon be solved and to this problem there is but one City Star. 0 St. Dry goods department Ireat Cle Padee taking 5th to 17th january inclusive Cash oily bargains in groceries during Sale no i Pell was Patent hungarian Strong Bakers in bakkwij3 and bags. from hard wheat.
