COLONEL MANYPENNY, COMMISSIONER OF INDIAN Ar
FAlRs-We officially advised that the President
has appointed Colonel George w. Manypenny, of this
State, 10 the very respectable and important office of
Commissioner of Indian Affairs, which has been ap-
proved by the Senate
We have personally known this gentleman since 1892,
and during that period have been such intimate rela
tons with him to be able to form very fair judsm
OF his merits man and his capacity official In
both he has ever had our high respect and TO consider
able degree has enjoyed the confidence and favor of the
community. He is of superior capacity and clear
ness OF inellect ndomltabe in energy and shrewd in
sagaciiy and OF business, possesses large
sources. which he always directs with GOODNESS and de-
cided nerve In allthese elements they who know him
mos, Intimately entertain for him high respect.
The position conferred upon him of great RESPONSE
blily and superior to the in the
post office, in connexion with which his name was for
short period associated II is only grade in,rior TO
cabinet place, both in influence and honor To discharge
its duties well. the head must have clear mind, frmness
cooness TACT energy, and high moral integrity These we
believe Col Manypenny possesses He will be brought in
contact with much that is rotten and knavish both in
what has happened in the office, under his predecessor
and what " i'll be attempted doubtless 10 be thrust upon
the office while in his custody. In such contact have
full faith IN his maintaining himself honorably, and
tanning the public interest unfaeringy. That
class OF SPECTATORS upon the mseres and ignorance of
the poor Indian, who long have roed upon the plum
der which they wresed from the tribes before the open
eyes OF the late administration, and with the corrupt
nvance OF some OF lis officials will hesitate before they
obirude their presence before the commissioner, and
they will find in him, as they always did under Col Me-
dill that neither offers OF mecenary gain, threats OF
personal responsibility nor eproach before the Executive
nor denuncaion in set speeches upon the floor OF Con-
gress by hired attorneys, will him from the line
pointed out in his conception OF justice, right and regard
