BLACK HUILH-R ALI EBOSEH
WHArWE SHALL HAVE.

WHAT WE SHALL HAVE.
We shall have another CalifoI
MIA or Pixies Peak attack, with tn
same result, plenty of suffering
decentralization, and gold, and no
much money made by anybod
who digs the gold.
THE SIOUX WILL FIGHT.
Baltimore American.
Those who are bitten by this
enthusiasm will do we'll Ia remem
Der that, besids the usual hard
ships, disappointmrn;s, and dan
gers the beset that path "f all piO
neers in new country, there is il
this case the certainty that those
who penetrate into the country u
the Black Hills will have to en-
counter the hostility of the Sioux
Indians, the largest, most warlike
and most reveRgeful of all the
American aborigines now remain
ing on our Western plains. And,
moreover, these Indians, in fight
ing for their lands, will have q
strong color Of right on their side.
1t is a little more than six years
ago, in the month of April, 1868,
that a commission acting on the
part of the United States, and
composed of Gems. Sherman,
Harvey, Terry, and others, conclu-
ded a treaty with the Sioux In
dams at Laramie. By the con-
ditions of this treaty certain con
cessions where made by the In
dians, and in return for these q
track of country was allotted for
their exclusive and absolute use.
The occupancy Of this territory
was secured for them by the most
solemn pledges; it was agreed that
there should be no intrusion or
interference with their rights, that
all military forces then within the
territory should be removed and
the roads closed up behind them,
and that no persons, except agents,
teachers, physicians, blacksmiths,
and similar government employees
distinctly specified, should be per-
mited to reside in or pass over
the country belonging to the In
dians. The territory so reserved
and guaranteed to the Indians as
the considerations for such desired
concessions is that through which
Gen. Clusters expedition has just
passed, and toward which the on
set of emig ration is already pre-
pairing to make its way. That the
Sioux Indians will not permit
this invasion of their country
without resistance is perfectly GER
tain.
The idea of this arrangement
was that the Indians had been
driven from here and yon, and
must have some place to stay.
Northern Wyoming was the only
decent place left unoccupied by
the whites, and so it was given up
to them, and the government un-
dertook to keep the whites out.
A large expedition was organized
a year or two later to penetrate
the country, but the government
ABSOLUTELY forbade it to move, and
it was forced to disband and give
it up.
We are very much mistaken if
this will not be the fate of any
band organising for the same pur-
pose now. Ifnot, it the whites are
permitted to enter the country,
they will soon have the numerous
and warlike Sioux on their backs.
and it will be strange if there
does not prove to be enough of
them to exterminate the prospec-
tors and carry fire and blood to
the settlements of Wyoming and
Colorado. So that prOspectors
who know when they are well off
will be likely to give any proposed
expedition to the Black Hills the
cold shoulder.

raised 148,S67 bushels of wheat.
This year the yield will reach near

The area under tobacco cultiva-

ponds upon the crop and the eli

red bushels may be used without
harm. On sugar beets and tobacco
large applications will often pro
mote growth, sometimes wonder
fully; but the beets will not yiel(

not make good smoke. On grail
crops, five to fifteen bushels De

adapted for an experimental trial.

EducafIon fn Japan.

A report recently published by
the British Secretary of Legation
at Yedo proves that, at least in the
matter of education, the japanese
are carrying out to the full their
contemplated reform. In the
year 1872 an act was passed by
which the country was mapped
out into seven educational circuits.
Inspectors were to be appointed
to every district, each of whom
was to be intrusted with the super
vision of twenty or thirty schools.
All teachers were to he certificat-
ed, and the schools were to he di-
vided into high, middle, and prim-
airy schools. The act was promul-
grted bareley two years ago, and
since that time 1889 private
schools, and $500 public schools
have been established. at
which $685. 63 boys, and 109,G37
girls attend. Add to this number
the 10000 students receiving
instruction in the higher schools,
and we have q total of 100000
young Japanese, or one in sixty
eight of the entire population, who
hava already taken advantage OF
the system prescribed by the gov
eminent. At Yeddo the education
establishments now actually in OPP
Grafton are the .'Dai Gakko," OF
university, the $50 Gakko,' OF
school for instruction in foreign
languages, the sShi Ham Gakko, D
or normal school for the instruc-
ton of Japanese teachers, besides
q principal female school and sew.
eral preparatory schools. The ed
ucatiOn given at all government
schools and colleges is entirely
secular, Gas far as consistent with
the fundamental tenents of the
Shinto faith" and having due re
gard to the proselytizing zeal o.
of Europeans, it is ordered that
no Christian divine is to be ad
mitted to the rank of teacher.

Richard j. Walsh, q Roman Cath
Ole priest of the city of New York,
has written a letter to q clerical
friend IN ireland, painting a picture
of the suferings of the poorer
classes in America that will really
be new to the people of this coun-
try. He takes pains to have il un-
derstood that he means every word
whenhe says that thousands and
thousands of abie.bedied men stand
idly and actually starving in the
city of New York, and that the
same is "true of every large city in
the Union.0 The people of Phila-

from this clerical letter writer that

people have been sfactualIy starry

of the country will learn from him
with equal establishment that they
have given up working their lands
and "raise only as much as sufIiees
for domestic consumption and are
therefore unable to employ any
hands. Americans generally will
learn with regret and dismay that

If Chinese servant is discharged
and about to leave, in q few we'll
chosen but mysterious characters he
sets forth the causes, either upon
scraps of paper or on the walls of
the room he has occupied. If there
has been any difference of opinion
about wages, any exaetions of SER
vice not agreeable, or other real or
fancied grievances, these matters
are all set forth in these few char
acters, which can only be read by
the successors of that particular
servant. In one instance, related
by San Francisco paper, a family
had a succession of servants coming
and going all the time. AS they
treated their servants well, the
work being light and the pay lib
eral, they could not for q long time
divine the cause. 1t finally occur
red to them that some months be-
fore they had been obliged to dis
miss s refractory servant. 1t
turned out that this servant had
left his cabalistic sign. He had got
even by showing up the family to
all his successors. The Oriental
document was effaced from the
wall and there has been no further
trouble. When the wrath of John
ia kindled, and he writes on the
wall or other place, il is said he is
neither very delicate nor truthful
in his statements.
