ed a series of expedients and makeshifts with
out relation to each other, and having no
definite purpose except to tide over present
difficulty and upon these we have managed
to keep along in such way as to make the
Department of Indian Affairs the most prolific
source of corruption in the whole country.
President Hayes has found, of course,
an Indian war ready made on ms
hands. 1t would have been remarkable II he
had not They come with the regularity OF
the seasons, and much more regularly than the
crops. The present war will be brought to
triumphant conclusion bv-and-by, of course.
They always are. But there are supplemented
people all over the country who have no
interest in a1y Of the contracts by when the
Indians are swiudled and provoked To war,
nor in any Of the contracts for army supplies
which crow out Of Indian wars; VINO are
beginning TO tire of the mon0tony OF
this business, and to ask If 1t IS hot
possible To determine the precise relations
of the Government to the Indians, ana thus
adopt q policy with regard to them which shall
give us a Jest from war. Would it be cruel,
for instance 10 refuse to furnish these lazy ana
vicious savages with arms and ammunition
with which to fight us ? The Administration OF
President Hayes cannot more worthly dlstln-
c7iisb itself than by the adoption of just and
wise Indian policy which shall put an end TO
frauds in the service and wars on the border.

NTH san RANDALL IN THE CHAIR.

"WIth sam Randall in the chair rs Speaker
said The memphis Appedl the other day, all
"needed legislation for the South is sure of
"speedy action" And Mr.. Randall now seems
TO be extraordinarily anxious tO satisfy bis Dem
ocratic friends that the prophecy l. quite true.
A correspondent of The GGireston Ne,cs called
upon the distinguished aSpirant recently to get
his opinions on the questions OF the hour. II
il well known thai if there is any one portion
Of our beloved country which Mr.. Randall, in
his Astounding and comprehensive patriotism,
loves better than the others, that portion is the
sandy island OF Galveston; if there is ary
American seaport, Philadelphia OF course ex-
cepted, which he believes to bo destined TO
outrank in commercial glory Tyre, Liverpool,
Venice, Samaria, Pr0yincetown, London.
Homes's Hole, and all the other mari
time cities famous in history, that seaport
is Galveston if there is one wrong which
more than any other vexes his meditati0ns, il
is the outrageous fact that Great Britain and
France have filched the MEXICAN traffic which
rightfuly belongs to the merchants of Calves
ton. Hence, when a Galveston reporter wis
observed coming up the path to the front door,
Mr. Randall "rolled himself out Of his ham
"mock" with alacrity, and brought forth his
whole family to shake hands with the well
come guest. There was a general shaking of
"hands" Nothing. indeed, could have been
more cordial than the meeting between the
Democratic statesman and the representative
of the Texas metropolis. The correspondent
was asked to supper, although in the hand
soonest manner he had offered 10 go" Mt the
earliest indications of the approach Of that
meal :; and NJ the close Of the interview, Mr..
Randall accompanied him all the way to the
depot, bidding him farewell with "a hearty
shake of the hand" and an urgent request
To come again.
Naturally, Mr.. Randall began the CONVERSE
ton by mentioning his yearning to visit Gal
weston Those who have read his speeches
are well aware that yearning for Galveston
has long been the ruling passion of his soul
Like the young man who devoted his days
and nights TO the subject of turnps, and died
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1877-08-15

at last in the attempt TO train those ioWy
fruits as climbing vines, Mr.. Randall has CIV
en- himself up to the contemplation OF caves
ton ~ the principal emporium OF American
commerce and refuge for the nayleS OIL INC
world and when 1t ia objected that the water
in front Of that alluring town IL neither deep
enough nor wide enough for the destiny he has
assigned it, he replies "That is the Government )
"conce,n. and the Government should attend to
"it.r Nothing could be simpler, and III the op'h-
ion of the correspondent of The he'cS, nothing
apparently could be more satisfactory Lev 'lie
Government attend to it. The enhre oouon
"needs q helping hand to start her on the roau
to prosperity" Needs deep river mouths Leu
the Government dig them. Needs large cities;
let the Government build them. Needs the
Mexican trade which goes across the ocean )
let the Government grab It, Needs null treas
uries let the Government fill them. Prosper
ity does not depend upon the energy, enter
prise, or ability of the people, nor upon the
gifts of Nature " 1t Is tho Governments COh-
"cern, and the Government should attend 10 II"
The Government will have enough to do
when Sam Randall is in the Char. Ihere
"are improvements that are wanted-yeS-
" greatly needed-in the South" TO be-
Gin with. there are "thirty million acres
"of landr to be reclaimed by leyees;
and when the Government has done this,
we really do not sec why the owners of
other lands do not ask to have them i'm
proved by drainage, fencing subsoh plough
ing, the eradication of stumps and the appll-
cation of phosphates. But the great work,
OF course, is the Texas Pacific kali-
road. and about that Ar. Randall speaks
with no uncertain voice. Only let the south
ern members of Congress agree among them
selves "a 90 what they want, and they shall
have it. "When the Southern members all
agree "a to the geographical line the road
should take there will be little opposition
"to IT," Nor does Mr.. Randall stop whom he
has thus loaded the country with s new debt
Of unconnted mlliards. He goes on 20 lay out
a general scheme for alternating hard times
and appeasng strikers by liberal system OF
internal Improvements, making markets for
PENNSYLVANIA ron and utilizing tramps we
suppose by inducing them to buy il. The
genius of Mr.. Randall spread itself with the
opening prospect and charging opportunities;
he began 10 soar into the ompyrean, if we
may say so, of poeticO-pOlitical economy when,

displayed by making the selection solely upon
the comparative scores. 1t results that some
of the favorites of the previous teams are MISS
ing from the new roll, but Gen. Dakin, as
Captain of the Team, may be relied upon to
keep its management fully up to its traditions.
The record of the shooting, as compared with
that of the British team, who are on the way
hither adds to our ritlemen's hope of success.
The alarm lest in the new administration at
Amherst religion and philosophy should push
science into the shade, which President Eliot
is reported to have expressed at the last Har-
ward Commencement dinner has suggestive
comment in the facts which we present to-day
about the Shepard Scientific Collections. How
ever prominently religion and philosophy may
be regarded mt Amherst there Is little danger
that science will be overlooked. The prestige
gained under Dr. Hitchcock will not DO lost
under DR.. Seelye.
Happily the fight with the Nez Perc6s Is
TO be accounted a victory, though dearly
won. The notion that the flying sayages
can combine their forces with those of Sit
ting Bull is wholly dscredited by our
military authorities. That Chief is to
have the honor of visit from duly
appointed commissioners. Let us hope that
there will be as little as possible of the farce
of treaty making in his case. Our people are
in no mood 10 proller TO him assurances OF
distinguished consideration.

Irish novels and dramas often make an eff
fective point by introducing the manufacture
of poteen and the mystery of the underground
still; hut to find anything of that sort in this
country it has been supposed necessary to 20
as far south as the mountains of North Caro-
lima or kentucky. Our police have, how
ever, discovered that the upper part OF
our island may furnish the requisite cave
for the Illicit d,tillery, when contractors
for street improvements have prepared the
way. To authors in search of novelties

1t is clearly evident that Mr.. Conkline's trip

His speech at Utica is chiefly an extension of

New. The facts ne dilates upon are too often

Trlm,nIng Apple Trees.

Though some farmers claim that Jdne
is really the best time to trim their orch
ards, very few attend to it then, on ac-
count of the pressure Of other work,
and so we must attend to it in the mild
days of winter. To trim properly, using
Judgment and good sense, is rather q
nice operation, and hence it is better to
select mild pleasant weather. A man up
in an apple tree, with the thermometer
at zero, is not in a position to stop and
think and examine very critically. We
do not like 10 be compelled to cut of
very large limbs. Training and shaping
ought to be attended TO while the tree is
young, and then there will seldom be a
necessity for removing very large bran
ches in trimming. Tie object is to get
rid Of waste dead wood, limbs that cross
each other, that hang too low, the
sprouts that start out and dis6gure the
tree Cot smooth, but not too closely;
All the trees in. an orchard should be
carefully examined at least as often as
once year, and such limbs as grow out
of proportion shortened in little, and
all surplus wood taken out.
