New County Mar. - Our efficient
County Auditor and Recorder are now
engaged in making new map Of Du-
bois county, showing the exact courses
of the streams and the owners Of every
tract Of land in the county. This is .
very particular job and will take hard
work for month or more to complete
II. but will be Of great advantage to the
county, as by this work the apparent
title Of lands will be fixed up to the
present time. We understand the map
could be engraved and 100 or more copies
thereof printed for about five hundred
dollars. Couldn't some of our enter.

he processes to teach as to
refuse to perform the burial rites over the
the remains of one who, by his pure, blame
less, and honorable life, gave no excuse for
such an insult to his memory or to the pro.
fession of which he was q distinguished or
nament. Fortunately for the credit OF the
religious denomination TO which Mr.. Sabine
belongs, another Episcopal clergyman, the
Rev. George H. Houghton, was found Eat a
little church round the corner, as Mr.. Sabine
termed it, who unhesitatingly consented 10
conduct the religious services at Mr.. Hollands
funeral. 1t is difficult, in view of such
an affair as this, to believe that we are living
in the nineteenth century, for an exhibition
of intolerance like that made by Mr. Sabine
would have disgraced the dark ages, and il
cannot fail to bring discredit upon the reli-
gion he processes to preach from his pulpit

IDENTIFY one of those Christians who forget
that the charity that suffereth long and is

nifty in this day and generation.

THE INDIAN RING.

IT has been charged for years that the Indian
Bureau was notoriously corrupt. Repeated
efforts to reform it have been made, but they
have never been completely successful, and
when frauds of one description were tempo
rarily suppressed, new class of schemes to
plunder the Treasury and cheat the aborigines
were speedily invented. There is Something
in the very nature of the transactions be-
tween the Government and the Indians which
seems to engender corruption. If a new
appropriation is made Cor their relief,
rascaliy gents pretend that they have
lobbied for it at Washington, and demand a
Hons share of the governmental bounty
either from the rude sons of the forest and
plains or from disbursing officers. This pro
cess has been repeated over and over again
until it has enriched successive generations
of white jackals. Even when this form of
extortion has not been practised, the infu-
entisl politicians who have from time to time
The evening telegraph. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1864-1918, 1870-12-30

I O an Governors of Territories and Superin-
tendents of Indian Affairs in from
tier regions have often countenanced
right stealing; and sub-sgents have
stolen 80 much of what was left after the big
thieves were gorged, that we do not wonder
at the conclusion some of the shrewd Iu-
dians have arrived at, viz, that our system
invariably enriches the white officers and
agents who administer it, while it impover-
ishes and kills the aborigines. If food or
clothing for the latter is contracted for, it
is either not delivered at all at the proper
time, or articles of inferior quality are sup
piled. The public sentiment on the from
tiers is uniformly hostile to the Indians, and
few settlers in our new regions care how
much race they hate and
despise are cheated If the clothing con-
tracted for proves too fiimsy to keep the red
men from freezing, or if the food furnished
is 80 scant, 80 rotten, or so unwholesome
that death from starvation or disease ensues,
our pioneers often regard such results either
with indifference or illy-disguised satisfac-
ton. Indeed, it has come to be a settled
axiom in frontier regions that the real mean
ing of the traditionary policy of our Govern
ment is to temporize SO as to kill the Indians
off gradually, without causing too many
bloody wars, and at the same time
to enrich such white favorites
as may be empowered to steal by the rulers at
Washington. In popular parlance, the men
who have made study and practice of such
operations are known as the Indian Ring; and
it seems to be well understood that, although
this ring is occasionally changed in its details,
reorganized, or modified, it perpetuates itself
under new forms, and, like other parasites, it
threatens to prolong its existence until the
last Indian or the Government itself expires.
1t is amazing that, in spite of all
the reforms set on foot during the
last few years, and in spite of the earnest
efforts of the President and the Indian Com
mission, this ring should still continue at the
present day frauds as fagrant and rascalitles
as infamous as any which have disgraced its
past history. Such persistence in wrong
doing can only be accounted for by the pre-.
sumption that the thieves still have accom-
plices in high positions. We hope, however,
| in view of the earnest effort now being made
| by the Indian Commission and its energetic
chairman, that official roeuery will soon be
| ferreted out, and that the Augean stables oi
| the Indian Bureau will be cleaned out at last
Let it not be said that the ring, in spite of the
manly fight made against it, is stronger thar
| the Government itself.

The CONDUCT of the Rev. w. Il. Sabine, an
Episcopal clergyman of New York city, a
few days ago, in refusing to read the burial
service over the remains of the veteran actor,
George Holland, cannot fail to shock all
rigbt-thinking men, no matter what their
opinions in regard to the stage may be. To
say that it was scandal to Christianity is
expressing in mild terms the disgust that
the lublic at large must experience at
such display of pharisaical intolerance.
We are happy to believe, however, that Mr..
Sabine is n exception among the clergy of
New York, and the friends of the late actor
wers unfortunate in applying to the one man
among hundreds who had so little apprecia-
tion Of the spirit OF the religion

WILL THE RING SURRENDER?
ALL our advices from various reliable sources
point to the possible loss of Republican power
in our Republican Legislature, in the very
outset of the session. 1t is clear that the
reckless partisanship heretofore demanded by
the Harrisburg rings will be repudiated by
the coming Legislature, and only by the
wisest counsels and the most judicious ac-
tions can the hopeless disorganization of the
Republican majority be prevented.
Will the ring leaders be admonished in sea-
son or will they force the Republican power
to speedy and utter destructionP No ring
candidate can be successful for any position,
and it is but madness to persist in such
efforts. Who shall preside over the respec-
tive houses, and who shall be the custodian
of the treasury, the people care but little, so
they are honest and competent, and thus
necessarily free from the loathsome taint of
the unscrupulous political jobbers who have
dragged the Republican party to the very
verge of ruin.
If Republican disorganization is forced by
the insatiate demands of the corruptionists,
they will reap fearful whirlwind. If the
retribution could stop with their discontinue,
the people of all parties would rejoice but if
the work of Republican disorganization is
once commenced, the measure of its sweep
will reach far beyond those who have invited
the storm. 1t is known by his official decla-
ratiops that the Executive is not in sympathy
with the political leeches who have fastened
like fostering blots on the Republican party,
and his official approval may be counted on
for any measure necessary to restore the State
to its ancient integrity.
If the Republicans are permitted to act for
the common interests of the party and of the
State, we shall have capable officers, liberal
Convention bill, fair apportionment, and a
creditable record for the session generally. If
they are distracted by the imperious demands
of the ring, we may look for combination
embracing the Democrats and independent
Republicans to elect the officers, pass Con-
vention bill and the apportionments,a and in all
probability revise the Registry law of this
city. The only safety for the Republican
party is for the spoilers to retire from the
field and allow untrammelled Republican
action to secure Republican unity. We can
hardly hope for such result, but if it cannot
! be attained by reason of the power of corrup-
ton, the honest and fearless Republicans owe
it to themselves, to their party, and to the
honor of the State to sanction no aspirations
or purposes of unworthy men, no matter by
whom commended The bright morn of re-
form has dawned at last in Pennsylvania. Do
the tricksters and pretenders understand?
