INDICTING THE INDIANs--ft is a queer sign
of the westward march of civilization that the
case of the Indians has been brought before a
Grand Jury. Thus the noble savage drops
down from his romantic elevation and takes his
place in the criminal scale side by side with
commonplace malefactors. He is no longer
creature apart-no longer the exclusive pro-
perty Of Uncle Sam and his Indian agents and
cavalry colonies; but he is recognized as
within the sphere Of the ordinary machinery
with which society protects itself against dis
order. This is a great deal. Although the
Montana authorities may find it difficult to
catch the Blackfeet Indians whom they have
indicted, although for the practical purpose of
the one case in hand their indictment is bull
against comet, yet there is peculiar signii-
canoe in what they have done, as it indicates
that organized society is at the Indians door,
for this, in turn, indicates that the Indian must
leave

NORTH CARoLINA-KU KLUx AND NIGGERs =
The Governor Of North Carolina is evidently
determined to be rid of one or the other of the
classes that make government troublesome in
his State, and his act of arraying the niggers
against the Ku Klux is fine piece of policy.
There is one point in favor Of the efficiency of
his dusky soldiery-the enemy is invisible.
Sambo is good on hunt.

Tho Last Ferry Collision.

Collisions on our ferries are not uncommon
occurrences, but, as far as we remember very
few Of them have been intelligently accounted
for, and in no cases have the ferry companies
been held to any accountability. The last
disaster Of this kind, however-that which
occurred night before last on the North river
appears to be susceptible Of explanation in this
wise: The pilots Of the heavily built boats of
the Erie Railroad, or Pavonia ferry, are said to
have entertained feeling of rivalry towards
the pilots of the lighter boats of the Hoboken
ferry, which run nearly in the same track
This feeling is reported to extend even to the
higher officials of the respective lines. If this
be true it is scandalous state of affairs. We
suppose that an investigation into this matter
will be made with the usual result, which
means nothing; but as no one was killed, as
far as known, although many were badly
manned on board the Hoboken boat, we cannot
expect a sage verdict from an intelligent coro-
ner's jury. 1t is clear, nevertheless, that
something ought to be done to protect the lives
of the forty or fifty thousand people who daily
cross the ferries to Jersey and Brooklyn.
