LIGHT IN Il DARK PLACE.

According to letter from TRIBUNE cor
respondent in California, printed on another
page, an Indian reservation is not very nice
place. The picture which he draws gives US
a glimpse Of the pulling secret Of the Modoc
war. The famous Indian policy" of the
Administration aims to drive all the Indians
on the reservations and keep them there. In
the abstract this is excellent; but something
else seems necessary in many cases. In
California, for example it appears that many
Indians are sef-suppOrting they live peace
ably among the whites and earn their wages
like other laboring people. But these have
been driven indiscrimlnatingly in with the rest ;
and sometimes this has been done with great
cruelty and hardship. The Indian Bureau,
Jealous of the military, attempted to drive In
the warlike Modocs, keeping its plans mean
while from the War Department. Can it be
possibIe that the Indian authorities were con-
scious of wrong doing, and for that reason
kept their plans secret2 1t is asserted that
great care was taken by the Indian Bureau to
conceal theirintentions toward the Modocs from
the knowledge of the Military Commander at
San Francisco. Thus was brought about a
war which has cost the nation many valuable
lives and the expenditure Of much money.
The Round Valley Reservation, in Northern
California, az pictured by our correspondent,
is little else than an unsavOry pauper establish
mcnt. The men aud boys are taught no use
full trades, and their mental and moral I'M
provement is just nothing at all. The women
are debqsed, impure, and diseased. The entire
establishment is mere lounging place where
the remnants Of few Indian tribes are kept
in sIoth until they utterly fade away and
relieve the nation of their guardianship. Yet
this Is q favorable example of Indian reserva-
tons We con imagine that Captain Jack and
his companions would soon tire OF this sort OF
life. If they were able and willing to support
themselves among the whites,why not let them
Why should these Indians be such eyesores to
the settlers of the region that they must be VI
olenty removedf The ModOcs were not ac-

tion and ability to make his own way in the
world, let him alone. We are very well aware
that a great number of Indians do not answer
TO any such description as this; and for these
nomads another kind of treatment Is needlui.
But we protest against the constant tendency
to an indiscriminate rule of conduct toward
"the nations unfortunate wards.' In the hap
py-go-lucky management which is called a policy
there is so little intelligent direction and DIS
elimination that we cannot be surprised IL
errors are numberless, constant and fatal. We

yB FOSTERS BACK PAY.

The Hon. Charles Foster of Ohio has pub
lished a letter on the Back Pay business. The
literature of this subject is growing extensive
and valuable, and it will make very pretty
reading some of these days when we get it all
together. Mr. Fosters first purpose, he tells
Ms was to give the money TO the school-fund
of his district; but his behavior was rather
severely criticised by his constituents, who
seemed to think that he lad taken what did
not belong to him; and perhaps he also
remembered that certain other gentlemen,
attempting to give their back pay to schools
and colleges, had met with a notifying re-
fusal. Mr. Foster accordingly, having "nO
"pride of opinion as to the method of diss
"nosing of the amount due him." concludes to
defer to what seems the well settled judg-
"ment of the people," and announces that he
has taken the necessary steps to have the
money covered into the Treasury of the United
States.
We compliment Mr.. Foster on his good
sense and penetration. He has gagged the
public temper great deal better than Sena-
tor Carpenter, who tells us that it is uncon-
stitutiOnal to refuse back pay; or than Mr.
Hancock Of Texas, who declared in public
speech at Austin that he would be ID"
if he would represent his constituents at
Washington if he was to be excluded from
all the fashionable entertainments and as
"sociations of the national capital" or than
Gen. Butler, who just puts his hands into his
pockets and asks, What are you going to
do about it 2" The number of Congress
men who have no pride of opinion about
them is woefully small; but that the people
have a good deal of pride of opinion they
will discover in due season.

But when they came to apply to anew set OF pro-

posed to the danger Of being dismissed with their

appealed to the Courts for redress praying that tho
University be compelled 70 provide them with

ced that they could only ask forther degrees after
they had received the necessary instruction, and
that the University could not be compelled to eiYo

Dr. Percy Leslie was called to give evidence in the

received the usual Zee Of one guinea. Mr.. Justice
Quan told him that, being in court in obedience to
the subpoena, the rule was that he must answer. He
need not have attended, but, being present, he was
obliged to testify, guinea OF no guinea. Dr. Leslie
protested that it was not fair to expect that he
should neglect his own business without rcmnnera-

4 German professor in Milwaukee makes a curious
claim 10 national honor which it would take moro
than one ghost to convince us Is just. He confidently
asserts that the parsonage whom the newspaper re-
porting such assertion calls "Chris" and Old Co
lumb,"-in other words, Christopher Columbus-was
the grandson Of a German Bohemian named Taube.
This Taube, according to Prof Burstan. emIgrated
70 Genoa and there changing his name to Colombo,
became the head of famous family. In support of
this statement, the Professor montions tho conclu-
sions Of DR.. Kourbet, and also conversation with
Alexander Won Humboldt, who thought it would DO
worth the pains to trace those conclusions to an au-
thentc certainty and thus give another great name
to tho German people.

alleged that the Kellogg government is a

defeated before every judicial tribunal to
which it has appealed, and now it is seek
ing by force Of arms to resist government
which has so far been recognized as the

markable fervor by the nobility of Eng

THERE is no hope after all tina t the At
lantic Ocean cable monopoly can be broken
up by the Newfoundland government. 1t
was announced, not long ago, that that
government, when it granted the charter Of
1854 to the the New York, Newfoundland
and London telegraph company, re-
served the right of buying in the franchise
and equipment, at cost, in 1874, and that it
would avail itself of that reservation to
break up the combination and run the cable
as a government line at popular rates.
But it is discovered that three years after
the grant of the charter the government
gave its sanction to the consolidation with
the Atlantic cable, and, by SO doing, has
forfeited the right of repurchase. The
monopoly is threatened, however, in other
quarters. A press cable has been pro
posed, and a few days ago, the New York
Cotton Exchange passed resolutions in
favor of having new cable laid, and prom
ised to take its stock. 80
