CHANGES IN rHEIND1As DEPARTMENT

1t is understood that the following
changes will soon be made in the Indian
department in Southern Kansas:
Doct William Nicholson OF Lawrence
will take the position OF superintendent Of
the Southern Agency made vacant by the
resignation of Enoch Hoag.
Cyrus Beedy chief clerk for Enoch Hoag
will take the agency Of the Usage Indians
made vacant by the resignation OF Mr.. Glib
son.
Our old friend A. C.. Williams Of Ton
ganoxie, will supercede Mr.. Richards ii
the Wichita agency. These selections ma,
lie regarded as er1inently wise, as they arr
all CAPABLE honest men.

WHAT SHALL WE sAYi

We publish elsewhere the proof, strong as
Holy Writ, that the notorious Jeems Legate,
who is now the editor OF the Commercial, a
paper owned by ID. W. Houston, the man
who opposed the nomination and election
of Col. VIM. 4. Phillips, the regular Re
publican candidate for Congress, has, with
the aid of a few ignorant, disreputable shy
sters, obtained forged afiidavits stating that
We used money in the last election. We
take il for granted that every respectable
man believes that in the late election we
acted honorably. For the information Of
Others, however, We will say that We did
not use or promise one dollar or any other
consideration TO any one, either directly or
| indirectly, 10 vote Tor or against any man.
The charges which Legate and Coney have
frauduieGtIy made poor ignorant men
swear 10, are false. We do not know what
crime these two scoundrels are guilty OF, in
the procurement OF these false and perjured
statements. We have, however, employed
competent attorneys, and We propose to
prosecute the libelous towards to the extent
of the law Their punishment ought to be
commensurate with the crime which they
have been guilty OF.
We did not think that any human being
could be guilty OF such low, cowardIy, perjur-
ed scoundrelism. A statement of what they
have done is all that is required to show
how base they are.
Coney SAYS Houston, Bond and Embry
furnished the money TO send Legate 10
Washington. Coney did go to bank in
this city to get note, endorsed by John
kirch, discounted.
John Kirch SAYS, however, If Coney had
any such note it was a forgery.
ID. W. Houston, VIM. ii. Bond, Tom.
Darling and z. +. Bri,ton were the princi-
pal signers to the petition for Colonel An
thongs removal.
Some Of the parties now engaged in this
infamous conspirac!y, were engaged in
the publication and distribution of the
igpeai at the time We We're shot, in May
last. We regard this conspiracy now, as
but the second chapter in the history Of
the tragedy OF last May. Ii there was one
scintilla OF truth or proof in anything
touching our political course, or the man.
agement OF the post-otice, there might
seem to be some excuse for these
outrages. Words are inadequate TO ex-
press our horror Of men who will
stoop TO such base frauds We do that
this morning which seems best. We hate
and deiest the necessity. A few days, We
trust will more fully develop the conspir-
acy. We feel it our duty to expose the vii
lians for the public good. When We find
that We have in our midst men who will
deliberately deceive, and by persistent
lying will induce eleven men, citizens, to
sign and swear to false statements, what
mans character or reputation is sale? 1t
is surely time for all men who have respect
for truth, justice and decency to see to it
that some efforts be made to place such
scoundrels where they can do no harm.

RUN0RED CHANGE.

1t is rumored on the street that the Chi
cage, Rock Island and Pacific road have

We are not prepared to say whether this
change would be beneficial to our city OF
NOT. No harm can possibly result from it,
and the leasing Of the l., L. & G. by the

Mr.. Allison introduced a bill to amend
section 10 of the Indian Appropriation bill,
approved March Sd, 1875, in regard to the
bonds OF Indian agents. Referred. 1t pro-
vides that no Indian agent shall be allowed
to enter upon the discharge of the duties Of
his Office until the sureties ON his bond
shall have flied sworn statements setting
forth the nature and kind of property
owned by them, the value OF the same, and
where situated, and empowers the Secretary
OF the Interior to require any Indian agent
now on duty to execute . rev bond in &c
cordance with the foregoing provisions. He
thinks the interests of the service demand
it. The bill also requires each Indian
agent to keep book OF itemized experdi-
lures and records of contracts and expendi-
lures always open to public inspection.
After an executive session, the Senate
adjourned.

IN DIANA.

INDIANAroLIs, December Is. In the u.
S. District Court, to-day, the entire morn
ing session OF the court was occupied in the
hearing of the evidence Of John w. Bing-
ham, whose appearance on the witness
stand was the signal for some interest
ing revelations regarding persons and
matters directly connected with
the Indiana whisky ring, of which he was.
the leading spirit and prime mover. With
reference to Mr.. Hill, witness observed that
he had known him as a revenue officer for
about two years, and had told Mr.. Lewis,
and others of his employees, not to fear the
defendant, in the capacity of government
official, as be was all right. Witness paid
the defendant regularly at the
first of every month, for not
peaching on him, and his average assess
ment for keeping Government officials mum
was $1,000 per week. These brides were
given him at Bingham's Office in Evans
vile. Mr.. Bingham also related in detail
the circumstance OF his having given Simon
T. Powell, a revenue supervisor, a gold
watch chain, on the occss ion of the latter's
visiting Evansville. He said that when he
presented the chain he did it for purpose,
knowing the official character of Powell,
and that such a gift might benefit
him sometime. Mr.. Bingham
stated that about one-third Of the whisky
he made was crooked, and even then he
lost so heavily as to necessitate the shut
ting down of the st. Louis distillery. Hi
ram Browne was given $500 by witness on
the occasion of his attending the marriage
of Henry Veatch, at Evansville. With ref
erence to Charles E. Marsh, agent Of the E.
& c. Railroad, debating whole day as to
whether he would accept the bride for max
ing false entries of whisky shipped, witness
said Marsh did not hesitate thirty seconds.
INDIANAPOLIS, December 1.-THE an
nual national convention Of the Brother
hood OF Locomotive Firemen convened this
afternoon, at the Senate chamber, in this
city. Mayor Caven delivered welcom-
ing address 10 the delegates, and was ap-
propriately responded to BY Grand Master
J. A. Leach. The public exercises were
closed with prayer BY Rev. Mr.. Walker,
and the convention took recess until to-
morrow morning. About sixty delegates
are in attendance, from every section OF the
United States. The Brotherhood repre-
sents thirty-two lodges. The convention
will continue in session during the week.

LITTER FROM TIE WICHITA AGEHcY

WICHITA AGENCY, !. T., Dec. 6, 1875.
EDITOR TINES Since my last, the In.
dams belonging to this Agency have gone
on their usual winter hunting expedition,
including nearly all the younger or most
active men of the various bands known as
the Caddos, Wichitas and affiliated bands
When full supply has been obtained they
will return well laden with the varied pro.
duct of the baffalo, beaver, deer, etc, robes
furs, skins, beef, tallow, etc, making-with
their crops and annuity supplies-ample
store for the winter. The children, of suit.
able age, are left behind to attend
the i've new, large boardins-schools that are
now on the full tide of success, under the
paternal care of Agent Richards who
has tax. n a special interest in this most
important element Of civilization, and the
progress of the pupils is fully as great and
satisfactory, as in schools attended only BY
white" children.
Having favorable opportunity for obser-
walton, the writer is free to say that he
knows of no other school where those in
charge exhibit more evidence of pains
taking and consciousness in the dis
charge of their arduous and important
duty. Here are nearly seventy children of
the forest brought and kept together with
the cheerful consent and cooperation OF
their parents, who appear to appreciate the
blessing of education and civilization,
though themselves deprived of such bless
ing. The moral training of the pupils re-
ceives careful attention under the wa.chful
eye of their excellent teachers and Agent,
and the physical welfare Of Indians and
employees is looked after BY DR.. Gimmle,
who is skilled in his profession.
All attaches of Indian Agencies, living
As they do apart from the haunts OF the
white man, feel lively interest in the do-
ings of the outer world; especially in the
changes made and to be made in the Secre-
taries and Commissioners, Agents, &c. So
far a. known, the Indians Of the Indian
Territory proper were never in better con-
dition or spirits; and, always excepting a
certain class of white men who prdenf to
marry among the Indians, the present as
pect OF affairs is decidedly encouraging and
satisfactory. Perhaps as much progress
has been made during the past FIVE year. as
at any other time; and, excep., perhape, in
q few minor particulars, it might be ssnsi-
bic to let we'll enough alone. -.

Wds fcScANeu Dy tuc httoIucy>OcIcT1l, To-
day, from U. S. Attorney Dyer, atSt- Louis,
saying that Samuel Glover, rendered the
position of special counsel Tor the govern
ment, in the place OF Gen. Henderson, de-
clined, for private reasons, which would be
communicated to the Attorney General by
letter.
Mr.. Riddle, counsel for the Pacific Mail
Steamship Company, in the District Court
to-day, stated that he had heretofore dis
missed, in the entire Misrepresentation of
the Company, and without authority, the
suits against parties for the recovery OF
money received by them on account of tine
subsidy, and on his motion the court re-
instated the cases.
The U. S. Attorney at ST. Louis, this af-
ternoon, forwarded the name OF an eminent
lawyer to take the place of Gen. Hender-
son, removed from further prosecution OF
the whisky cases, but his designation
awaits the approval of the Department Of
Justice, which cannot be obtained until al
ter the conference Of the President, Secre-
tary of the Treasury and Attorney General.
The nomination of Mr.. Glover was suggest
ed on account of the high estimate Of the
ability of that gentleman, held by the De
partment OF Justice, and there was sone
disappointment: when it was learned that he
was prevented from accepting. The official
telegram from Mr.. Clio Ter to the Attorney
General reads Is follows;

The wishes Of the Department OF JUS
tice in this particular are for tie selection
of counsel equally fair and fearless in the
discharge of his duties. In this expression
of views the President, Secretary Bri.tow
and the Attorney General entirely accord,
with the additional inclination that should
two lawyers Of equul professional emf
hence be presented for appointment TO
the responsible office, they would
rather have gentlemen OF different political
opinion from the administration, than
politically In accord with the President.
Attorney General Pierrepont says the
President is ardent in his demand for coun-
sci who should be absolutely fearless In the
discharge Of duties attending his oihce, and
would not be satisfied with anything short
of the most vigorous and the most impair.
