commissioners. The country will not tole-
rate the idea of having any of our officers
exposed to the risk of meeting the melan-
choly fate Of the gallant General CASBI,
who was trcachcrously murdered by Capt
JACK.
We hope, therefore, that the talk about q
treaty with SITTING BULL will be aban-
doncd. Such policy may be well enough
for the Canadian Government, but our rcla-
tions to the Indians are quite different 1t
will not do for us to humiliatc ourselves by
treating with a chief who has twice defeat
ed US. We must subdue him by main force,
or We will never have any real peace with
him. II would moreover, render all our
Indian foes insolcnt and confident should
they learn that one of their race had practi-
cally eNtorted terms from our Government
by force of arms. We should therefore only
treat with SITTING BULL bya force strong
enough TO compel him to accept such terms
US our Government may see proper TO die
tate. Treaties with Indians are Mt the best
worth but little, and the fewer we have oi
them the better 1t will be for all concerned,

CAPT. BoBs Rig POKER CONVENTION, AND THE
NECESSITY FoR II.

CAPT. BoBs ZIG POKER CONVENTION. AND THE
NECESSITY FOR IT.
Capt Bob, the Pluto politician, has called
big poker convention to be held at American
fiat to-day. The subject of this gathering OF
card sharps Is to definitely settle the relative
values Of some Of the larger denominations Of
hands. Some years ago Bob learned the dips,
spurs and sinuosities Of the game from white
man, and introduced Il into the pastimes OF
his tribe In manner advantageous to his
private exchequer. He did not, 10 to speak,
throw the game to them all ut once, hut doled
out the fine points In judicious driblets. Ittook
experience and money to learn the game of
Bob. For instance, one day, with $3.50 in the
pot, ono Of the players revealed the possession OF
four aces. A triAe like that did not abash the
resources Of Bob, for he coolly gath
cred in the pot on pair Of kings and two
deuces. His antagonist was easily convinced
by Bobs argument that the two deuces were
just equivalent to the four aces, having the
same number Of spots, while the kings gave
him the required prepondcrance. Some Of the
bucks accuse Bob Of having different poker
rule for every change Of moon, and they have
demanded convocation Of the tribe TO delib-
crate upon 1t. Bob, by . diplomatic strike, Ia
now first and foremost In the call for reform,
and Is louder than all the rest In tho demand
for a convention. Long Brown has received
an invitation to be present, and Jim OTndorh
will act IS referec.-tirsinia (Nsb.) Chronicle.

SILVER.

The National Board of Trade declined to
approve proposition for the unlimited re-
of silver, but very wisely re-
commended an international commission to
consider aud ix the relations Of gold and
silver. The proposal for an international
commission should engage the immediate
attention Of Congress, and should accom-
pany any law authorizing limited coinage
of silver which may he passed. If provision
is made for such commission 1t would as
sure the public that no rash or extreme
policy VI on this subject would he sanctioned
by the Government, and thereby give conf
dence to the public creditors.
II Is vain TO think of reaching any prac-
teal results in regard to silver coinage with
ont co-operatiOn with other nations. AL
though four fifths Of mankind still use sill
yer money, the great commercial nations OF
the world use gold alone or gold and silver
with limited coinage OF the latter, rs is
regulated by the Latin Union. II we aeeede
to the regulations Of the Latin Union we
can use silver money; otherwise VIC cannot
except to very limited extent, for unless
VIC were restrained by treaty stipulations
there would be constant tendency to issue
10 much silver coin as to drive gold out ol
circulation. Therefore the international
commission demanded by the Nationa
Board Of Trade should by all means be up
pointed.

BRIGHAM YouNa, who died at Salt Lake
city yesterday afternoon, was born at Whit
inpham, Vermont, January |, 1901, and was
the son of farmer who had been soldier
of the Revolution. The Mormon Church
was first regularly organized at Manchester,
\. Y. April O, 1880, and in January, 1851,
directed, as he claimed, by revelation, SMITH
led his followers to Kirkland, Ohio, which
was to be the seat of the New Jerusalem.
In the spring of 1892 YouSG became a
convert to Mormonism, and was soon or
,laincd to preach. Ills talent and shrcwd-
ness soon made him prominent, and in 1885
he was appointed one of the twelve apostles,
and sent forth to preach the doctrines of
the new Church. When the Mormons were
driven out Of Ohio YOUNG followed them
in their wandcrings, until they finally
established themselves ut Nauvoo, in Illi-
nois, where they remained for several
years.
As Is we'll known, the citizens Of Illinois,
becoming aware Of the fact that polygamy
was established among the Mormo,is, md
that they were likely TO become q danger
ous and wicked class Of citizens, finally
drove them out of the State in September,
ls45. The Prophet JOSEPH SMITH having
been killed in 1S4t, BRIGHAM YouNG was
chosen first President, and thereby became
the head of the Church, position which
he continued to hold until the time Of his
death.
When the Mormons were finally driven
out of Illinois YoUSG, with great sagacity,
determined to lead his followers into some
unoccupicd Territory of the West, whore
they would probably remain unmolested
for many years. At the head of party OF
pioneers, he set out for Salt Lake valley,
Utah, In the spring Of 1s47, and arrived at
his destination in July Of the same year
The main body Of the Saints arrived there
In the autumn Of 1S4S.
For many years he was o virtual autocrai
Of that country, and under his arbitrary
rule II 1ourished TO an extent which would
scarcely have been possible under other cir
cumstances The completion Of the Pacific
railroad, however, brought him into contac
with the old enemies Of the Mormons, ant
from that time to the day Of his death hi
power has been on the wane. Recent inves
| tigations established very conclusively tina
he was responsible for the ficndish Mountain
Meadows massacre, one Of the blackest deed
in all the annals of public crimes Bishol
LEE was executed for his share in that bus
iness. and II justice had been done YOuN'
would have shared the same fate.
i BY his death he has cheated the gallowi
but his name will remain forever infamous
Now that this bold, wicked and sensus
dsspOt is out Of the way, there is reason
hope that his deluded followers may ult
, inately bs reclaimed, and tile foul blot
polyxnmy wiped out
