radical legislation. The quietness of the
financial situation previous to the passage OF
the resumption bill promised unexampled
prosperity If things had been left
alone. Production would have in.
c,essed, labor been employed, new farms
cultivated, new railroads built,
and general prosperity would have been the
result. But the money power was not salts
fed. There was.a chance for bleeding the
people, forcing them TO the wall. The
resumption act was run upon the bank OF
the nations prosperity. There was no
necessity for 1t. 1t was forced. 1t was
done deliberately, and the Republicans say
that there shall be no step backward. Let
the people cry. Let the mills stop;
no matter If general bankruptcy overtakes
all business enterprises, the Shylocks must
have their pound OF flesh.
This has called fourth the expression oil
public opinion as at Terre Hsute. This is
not the end OF such meetings. They will
he held everywhere. Even il
the money power shall sue
coed in comprising victory next week in
Ohio, it will not stop the demand of the peo'
pie elsew here that contraction shall cease,
The combined influence OF the money power
may be concentrated in Ohio, but it is not
strong enough to reach out over the
whole country, and the people will DO heard
in their own behalf.

same races on similar business. Neither the
judicious exercise OF power nor the more
discreet policy of justice and fair dealing
ha relieved the nation from the horrors of
bsrbaric massacre. 1t is astonishing, it Is
mortifying and disgrsceful. No other civ
ilized people ever contended so un-
successfully with barbarous races.
Step across the invisible line
which separates the United States from
British America, and no such condition OF
hostility is found. There are no quarrels,
fights, murders and atrocities between the
Northern redskins and the subjects OF the
Dominion. There all is quiet, safety pre-
walls. Come back to the American side and
every day brings rumors OF alarms, outrages
and crimes. Explanations of this condition
may be given, but not apologies No justifi-
cation can be offered for chronic state OF
hostilities with few thousands of almost
helpless wild savages. IL does not matter
to discuss here what should be done, what
policy adopted towards the nations "wild
wards" What should not be done forces
itself upon the attention of great people,
who claim to be Christian, who are propos-
Ing to convert the heather in the ends of the
world TO Christianity. As in all cases of
wickedness, the first business Is to repent,
cease to do evil. All the troubles with the
Indisrs from the slaughter on Manhattan
Island, by the orders of the Dutch governor,
down 10 1875, have their root in
the injustice of the white man,
using his power and superior intelligence to
defraud the sborgine of his rights. The In
dian has an atrocious character in these
days, but it has been made so by the I'M
scrupulous white man. Party politics are
responsible for the crimes. When friends
must be rewarded at the cost of keeping
such men as Delano IN power with all OF
his following of rascals, thieves and robbers
to deal with the untutored but shrewd chill
dren OF the desert, there can not and ought
not to be peace and tranquility. Bad white
men make bad Indians. and that is the sort
who are Systematically allowed to defraud
both parties between which they act as
agents. Only the near approach of winter
now prevents a dangerous outbreak of the
tribes, who leave the presence of the COM
mission more exssperatsd than they came.
The president is a great war general, but
neither he nor any of his helpers have done
anything in almost two terms of service to
fulfill the fisttering promises of sound In
dian policy made at the beginning of his
administration.

Roberf Dale owen,s Letter.

DIR. Evarts, the superintendent of the In
sane Asylum, has given to the world letter
written by Robert Dale Owen, as a testimo-
NAL that he is justified in discharging Mr..
Owen from the asylum. 1t may be promised
that DIR. Evarts is The best judge of the
proper time to discharge patients, and that
it is altogether unnecessary to give to the
public any guarantee for his acts in such
cases. But the matter which chiefly invites
attention in the case is the exceeding bad
taste in offering for publication a letter OF
this sort. 1t makes the matter no
less indicate if Mr.. Owen con-
sented to its publication. Mr..
Owen has been suffering from mental and
physical arrangement and exhaustion, and
has been confined to the asylum. This has
been matter OF deep concern to his friends

The Hon. Franklin anaerr.

AS heretofore stated in the Sentinel, the
Hon. Franklin Landers, of this city, will
spend this week in Ohio, canvassing in be-
half of the Democratic ticket. His opening
speech will be made at Cincinnati this
evening. Although not polished speaker,
Mr.. Landers Is a forcible one. He makes no
claim to the grsces OF oratory, but he is pos
sessed of qualities that avail him more than
the flowers of rhetoric. He has strong
common sense. No one who converses
with him or hears him on the stump will
gainsay this assertion. What he says goes
home to the understandings OF his hearers.
He does not cover up his thoughts in a
superhuity of words, but uses only enough
to convey his meaning. His language,
although not polished, is good. He says
no foolish things, and his hearers have no
difficulty in understanding what he means
to say. He does not use language to con-
ceal his thoughts, but to express them. He
is physically and intellectually strong
man, and one that will be felt in whatever
he undertakes to do.
1t was the fashion last fall, among Re
publicans, to ridieule Mr.. Landers's con-
gressionsl aspirations. They asserted that he
was an uncouth, uneducatea man, without
the ability TO make an effective canvass.
They, however, soon discovered their mis-
take. He had served with decided ability in
the Senate Of the state, and his extensive
reading and intercourse with public men
made him familiar with the political affairs
ofthe country. This, General CoburD, his
competitor for congress, soon discovered.
General Coburn had been in public life for
many years, and should have been familiar
with the politics of the day, but it was
demonstrated, more than once in his de-
bates with Mr.. Landers, that the latter was
better posted in financial matters than he.
We bespeak for our worthy congressman g
kindly reception at the hands OF our Ohio
| friends, and assure them that his labors will
not be- without fruit. Wherever he goes, he
will be felt, for he is an earnest man, and
believes in the doctrines he teaches. The
blows he will give the money power will bt
telling ones, for he is a strong man, and
knows how to assault an enemy as we'll as
to defend friend.

The sudden and almost complete obscura-.
ton Of the sun by clouds yesterday fore
noon approached the rank of a phenome-
non. The gas was lighted generally all
over the city, and net with its usual success
in making he darkness more interse. The
Sentinel has been unable to learn, although
it has made diligent inquiry, whether in any
case the chickens went to rooss, or whether
they remembered that they had as yet re-
ceivad but one meal since sunrise,
and, pursuing an easy course OF
ratiocination, arrived at the conclusion that it
therefore could not be bed time. But yes
terday esn hardly succeed in going down to
history beside May 10, 1880, "The Dark
Day" par excellence. The ''horror of great
darkness which encompassed New England
on that date is still talked of among her pine
clad mills and beside her ripping brooks.
The observation came on about ten o'clock
of a'cloudless day and in some places lasted
till the middle of the next night. Birds, fowls
and cattle sought their quarters. as if the
night had really began, and the people Of
that supsrstitious ago were sure that it was
the Lords great day. Then the elect looked
forward, trembling, perhaps, but yet conf
dent, 70 speedily standing before the great
white throne and gazing upon the face of
the maker OF heaven and earth. Then
the sons OF Belial regretted the cute
ness OF their last Goldfish trade,
wished they had, during their evil careers,
partaken less freely OF New England rum,
and vowed, if spared, to attend meetiu' regu
lsrly thereafter and to avoid all manner of
merrymakings and other snares of the evil
one. Soon the sun shone ont once more,
the fowls returned to the chase OF worms,
the Lords anOinted concluded that
this was a tolerable world after
all, and the children OF Satan sought
once more tceir Eastwood hams, their
ignorant wooden clocks and their tinware
wagons, and enjoyed the big end of bar
gain with more Zest than ever. But the
cause OF that mysterious gloom has ever re-
manned undiscovered. If any one would
learn more OF it, let him turn to the charm
ing story OF Abraham Davenport in Whit
tiers TENT on the Beach" and read how the
stern old puritan, sitting in the Connecticut
House OF Representatives, reproved
the fears Of his brother legislators,

alton in which to be found by the Lord than
at his place of duty, looking out for the in
terests OF the goodmen OF Stamford who
had sent him there. Then calling for can
dies, he discussed with strong Saxon sense
the pros and cons of can act concerning the
shsd and alewlve fisheries" while his audit
ors listened to catch between his periods the
trump OF tie archangel proclaiming that the
end OF all things had come.

zinc PeopIe,s Voice.

The greenback meeting at Terre Raute is
significant. There is no political contest in
this state, and the ordinary means that are
usually adopted for gathering the peo-
pie together have not been used.
There was no convention, or party
platform to adopt. 1t was
simply the spontaneous expression Of the
people on policy that is being put in force,
which Is oppressive. Contraction has COM
menced. Banks are calling in their loans.
Manufacturers are stopping their works be-
cause they have no security that they can
hold on to the manufactured articles until
they can be disposed of in regular trade.
When work stops, and every department
of business lsnguisnes, the merchant feels
it. He does not sell on credit with bills ma
turing, and he can not sell for cash when the
people are idle. The resumption policy has
produced this result. 1t has no other cause.
A panic has been forced on the country by

The Jefferson borden Mutiny,

After long and tedious trial in the United
States Court, at Boston, the two riDgleaders
IN the Jefferson Borden mutiny have been
sentenced to suffer the extreme penalty.
Severe as the sentence may seem, it is hardly
adequate to satisfy the demands of justice.
Tho mutineers had no other incentive to
the crime than q dislike of the disci-
pline of the captain, and they contem-
plated the inter humiliation Of all opposi-
ton. The history Of the case is worthy of a
brief review ne mutineers matured their
plans, chucked the mates overheard and
summoned the captsin on deck. The
ssgacity of his wife saved him. She had
read in the faces and actions of the men
that they meant mischief and she counseled
her husband rot 10 obey their summons. He
armed himself to the teeth and forced the
enemy under cover, where he kept them
until they surrendered, when he
placed them in irons. Having bagged
his game, the captain continued
his voyage and put into an English
port, where he was received as a conqueror.
After he had been lionized to his hearts con-
tent he sailed for Boston, where the men
were put on trial upon the grave charges
of mutiny and murder. Two were found
guilty and sentenced to death as indicated.
Their offense could hardly have been more
heinous in the eyes of the public and the
estimation of the law. Such outrages upon
the high seas should always be visited with
the most terrible penalties known to the law.
Lille upon the ocean is attended with great
peril from the elements and other obstruc-
tions to navigation, and the treachery Of
man should not be tolerated. 1t is to be
hoped, therefore, that the law in this case
will be permitted to take its course.

The dispatches Saturday night announced
that no individul applications for space will
be considered by the Centennial commits

twelve thousand manufacturing establish

twenty-five applications. The direct occa-

hundreds of manufacturers in the state
