THE DIPLOMATIC BILL.

1t would be good thing if the Dip
lomatic and Consular bill failed tC
pass, or was vetoed by the President
if for no other reason than to show
the country the utter uselessness OF
this gilded sham, and how easy it IL
for a great nation to manage its affairs
without making diplomacy politica
pension office. The report of the last
Conference Committee made some Gu
rious developments, which have moi
attracted the attention they deserve.
1t appears that when the first con.
ference met, the managers on the part
of tile House distinctly asked if the
Senate intended to make any point on
the changes of law proposed by the
House in their bill, and the Senate
conferees answered that they did moi
intend to make any fight upon that
ground, so that at the outset of the
disagreements which have since fol-
lowed, no claim was alleged by the
Senate that the change in the law by
which retrenchment was introduced
was a cause of difference between the
two Houses
Therefore, the pretence now set up
that changes in "existing laws" con-
stituted the chief ground of objection
to the proposed economy, was an after
thought, and never occurred to the
Senate until they saw forty millions
of patronage in danger. Then they
were very much troubled about the
letter of the law, which they them.
selves bad engrafted on appropria-
tions, multiplying offices and increas-
ing the salaries.
The point of difference last made by
the Senate involved a principle which
ought not to be given up. They were
willing to accept the reductions made
by the House in the aggregate, but
with the condition that the President
should distribute it according to his
own discretion, either by Withdrawing
certain Ministers or reducing salaries.
The House proposed an amendment
that the sum voted should be in full
for the service Of the year, thus exclu-
ding any future claims on the part of
those who might be left out or cut
down. The Senate would not agree
to this fair proposition, and the con.
| ference separated.
Nothing is palmer than that the
whole game of the Senate is to retain
the present extravagance, and to make
no honest concession to economy.
This Diplomatic bill has now been
kept dangling in the air four months,
and for no other reason than because
the President, the Senate, and the Re
publican party have resolved that the
abuses shall stand as they have stood,
and that reform shall not be tolerated
recognized or encouraged in any way

GraNt's Cabinet Changes.

The Republican press affect great
alarm or great surprise at the changes
which Grant has been making in his
Cabinet.
But We do not see that the Republican
Senators or the Republican members of
The House of Representatives appear to
be very mach opposed TO Grants course,
His new Cabinet appointees are confirm
cd without question, and it would seem
that they are made in accordance with
some preconseived action. We should
not be surprised if this was all in accord
with the directions of old Zack. Chand

TMe Mossacre of the 4mericaa
Soldiers Should be 4renDed, and
that Speedily.

N@ssee OkSSSs"s~V'
There are $4,000 soldiers on the army
rolls of the United States. Their pres
ence is wanted nowhere except to avenge
the massacre of Custer and his COM
rades.
The people are competent to take care
of themselves, and if it would take the
whole army TO wipe out the bad Indians
the mass of the population would sane
tion the work.
The army has to be kept, and the cost
between keeping it on the war path and
in the towns, cities and forts ought not
to Re so vastly disproportioned as it is
But nevertheless it is no use in the
forts and cities, and had better be
marched to the frontier. While the In
dams live under the impression that we
have but few soldiers their chiefs will
he constantly deceiving themselves and
their tribes with the idea that they can
whip the whites, and will continue these
massacres.
Let them now be taught lesson that
they will transmit to the last OF their
races; let this lesson follow quick on the
heels Of the one they will delight to hand
down to the young Lraves, /. e., the mas
sacre of Custer and his pale faced heroes.
In mercy to the young Indians as well
as to women and children Of the whites
on the frontier, the savage bands should
be taught terrible lesson for the work
of death they have dealt our poor SOL
diers, whose object was not to harm the
indians, but to protect them and secure
to them greater comforts than they could
have without our aid.
The white people have patiently la
bored and toiled for the immense sums
of money with which the Indians have
been fed and clothed through the win
ters for half century. They have tried
every means possible to civiize them
they have kept them when the winter
prevented their living upen game-have
furnished them year after year with seeds
and implements for agricultural labor,
all to NO good purpose, for the Indians
improvidence is sure to find them il 6
condition of want when food is mos,
naeded.
u may be and we believe i: is trne
that this massacre was partly brought
about by the acts OF the Grant Admin
istration, for all will remember that tht
Indians were brought to Washington
last year to treat fel the region Of ter
6ory about the Black Hills, and refuse
. th scorn the offer of $4,000 for tn
We Of their reservation; they woul
sseeEtake the money; nor could "Sittin
!, Bull" be induced to come to Washingto
at all, Had Grant been as liberal wit

Amy. But the action Of Grant do
not orcnse the mass ere, and it must
