From the very decided statements of ex-
Gov. Bullock which we publish to-day, it ap-
pears that he is not willing to serve on the
Committee nominated by the Board of Indian
Commissioners to investigate affairs at Red
Cloud Agency. This fact seems contrary to
what the Hon. +. =. Smith, Commissioner OF
Indian Affairs says, in letter to Prof.
Marsh, also published to-day. Meanwhile the
urgcncy with which the Commissioner presses
Prof. Nrrsh to make his indictment appears
rather mature. The difficulty seems to be
not so :auch in bringing forward the abundant
charges AGAINST the Indian managers as to find
men of prouity and cminence that have leisure
to listen to them.

The Commissioners of Accounts have COM
plctcd their labors of inquiry into the methods
of the Finance Department, and the outcome,
as was expected, includes some pretty sharp
criticism of Controller Green. Reasons fer
finding fault are set forth in regard to the
manner of paying judgments against the city,
in regard to the payment OF bills transmitted
from other departments for supplies and work
which should have been furnished " contract
but were not so furnished, in regard to pay
ments from appropriations other than those
designated by the Board Of Estimate and
Appo1tionment, and in regard to some
other matters Of less general interest.
The Commissioners claim that the methods
of the department can be much sim-
plifed with advantage, its working force re-
duccd, and its outlay for salaries lcsscncd.
None of the charges in the report, however,
are so startling and weiehty that the great
body of our taxpayers, who have undimin-
ished confidence in the honesty of Controller
Green, will believe that no cannot furnish
much better explanation of them than he is
able to give Of hi, obstinate opposition to the
Mayors sensible views about signing city

The profound and phenomenal ignorance in
yolvcd in Gov. Gratz Browns argument against
contraction, as stated in his recent interview,
is another evidence Of the need of earnest
effort on the part of all believers IN honest
money. Here is a man of far more than aver
age intelligence, who really thinks that the
times are hard because there are not enough
greenbacks printed to do the business that
waits to be done by them. He really lmaglncS
that the country is full of work waiting 10 he
done for more grcenbacks, full of crops ready
to be moved when more grcenbacks are
printed aud presumably that the European
demand for bicadstufls will revive the moment
more greenbacks are printed He seems to be
equally ignorant that month by month more
crccnbacks have gone out of use because
there was absolutely no use for them, and
that at this hour they glut the safes OF every
bank and trust company in all the great money
Centers.

they have no moral right to divert the property OF
the Association. paid for not only by the present
members but by preceding generations OF mem
bers, from the purposes for which 1t was provided.
The reading room is cool and quiet resort in SUM-
mcr for many who can pass their leisure time no
where else to such advantage. To let it for tho
purposes of book auction is not only to deprive
members of their rights but to assume control OF
the property of the Association which ought to rest
only with the members themselves. 1t is difficult to
SEQ why the Directors might not with equal pro-
priety move the aucton-room one story higher and
sell of the library itself The members will do well
to take greater interest in library politics here

Editors Work.

The Cincinnati Gazette has sensible
and timely article on the editorial sanctum
and its visitors, from which we make the
following extracts:
mot all who visit editorial rooms are in
truders or bores, but great many are,
and these ale so numerous that all visitors
are looked upon with some degree Of sus-
picion until their business becomes known
1t is never pleasant to be interrupted In
editorial work. It has tendency to make
men cross. There is pressure upon edit
ors. They work nearly all the time under
a pressure. Often their ideas do not flow
freely, and when they are not pleasing
themselves they are not in mood to spend
much time on those who interrupt them
We suppose it is safe to say that three
fourths of those who call to see the edit
orr have no business properly with that in
dividual. Often they do not know him
personally, and in order to find him they
interrupt half dozen men who have i'm
portant work to do, and only limited time
to do it in. Then if they receive short an
swers, they feel aggrieved, and talk about
impolte treatment. The editorial rooms Of
newspaper establishments are private, and
are only to be visited, except as a matter
of favor, by those who have business with
the editor. The best way, if people have
something to say to an editor, is to write
that something down and send it to him
This would save time ON both sides, anC
answer better purpose nine times out Of
ten, than personal interviews.

Practice versus Theory.

The theory of disease accepted by physicians is
that symptoms are merely sympathetic indications
of its existence, and have in most instances little
nothing to do with fixing its locality. Their prac
tice, however is Numerically opposed to their the
DRY, for they administer medicines which affect
symptoms only. The remarkable cures of dyspep
sia, sick headache, constipation, rheumatism, gen
eral debility, urinary and kidney troubles and ma
larial fevers, wrought by Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers, could never have been accomplished by rene
dies which addressed themselves merely to the
removal of any one of the manifold and complica
ted symptoms to which those maladies give rise

ach and tributary organs, overcoming their irregu
larities and endowing them with renewed vigor

Losing their Capital.

Little by little the Republican party is
losing the chief capital on which it has ex-
listed since the war, viz: southern out
RACES. The hardest blow it has received
of late is that given by Judge Kelley, their
leading congressman from Pennsylvania.
A brief statement of his views will be
found in this paper. For years, Republi-
can editors and Republican office holders
have sat in their Offices and narrowed up
the souls of the faithful with horrible tales
of society they have never seen and do not
comprehend, declaring that the south is a
hot bed of treason. But now, since the
country is rid of Laundalet Williams, and
since their pet leader has been south and
told the truth, may we not hope that the
Grant party has lost its stock in trade?
1t would be good idea for the newly
elected Republican congressman who want
to know the truth, to spend few weeks
in the South before they are called upon te
pass new measures devised to insure its
subsection to the Administration party
And it would do some of the little country
editors power of good to go down and SCI
for themselves also Every competen
observer, no matter what his politics
agrees in the report that in spite of few
local wrongs which, if investigated. would
probably be traced to local causes of irrita
ton, the South is sin rely disposed t
peace, justice and brotnerly feeling.
The renewing Of ancient friendship AM
strengthening of national ties between tn,
different sections of our country are tn
most marked phenomena of this centennia
era, and if the celebrations which are bring
ing North and South together at Concord
and Lexington, and Charlotte, and Bunke
Hill, and Philadelphia have no other goo,

A Sensible Criticism.

Commenting on Ben Buffers letter
which stated that drinking saloons and bar
bers shops could not be compelled, under
the Civil Rights law or any other law, to
serve negroes,or any other customers
which they did not want in their establish
ments, the St. Louis Republican very SEN
sibly says
Now we fail to see why the principle ap-
piled to drinking saloons cannot with the
same propriety be extended to theatres
and other places of amusement, hotels, etc.
These latter are obliged to obtain license
as well as the former, and may be suppos-
ed to have the same inherent rights. One
is just as much place of public resort as
the other. Nobody is compelled to enter
bar room any more than he is to patron
ize theatre, circus, concert, or hotel
Why. then, should the applicants for en-
tertainment be forced upon the proprietors
in one case and not in the other? The
law protects the vendors of liquor in all
proper efforts for the preservation of order
on their premises, and affords all necessary
facilities for the collection Of debts due
them. 1t does no more for theatres and
hotel proprietors. Why should not the
same privileges be granted these latter as
the former? IF selling liquor is optional
with the seller, why should not the sell.
ing of an admission ticket, or bed or board
be equally optional with those engaged in
such business? Heretofore theatres and
(hotels have been permitted to choose
their own guests whenever any choice was
deemed necessary. An individual whose
morals or behayior untitled him or her
| for decent company, was received
or not as the hotel proprietor thought
lest, and not unfrequently was
expelled after being received, A man

instances, why not in all ? If the presence

large majority of the frequenterE

If the idea set forth by Butler has sole
foundation in the federal constitution, ther
the popular notions in regard to libert.
