A petty quarrel is going on between
the Interior Department and certain
Army Officers. The Indian policy
Of the Government, as every reading
man in the world knows, is bloody
and costly failure, and the present
controversy grows out Of an attempt
TO fix the responsibility for that fail
ure on the two branches of Govern
ment connected with the carrying out
ofthat policy. Our Canadian peigh-
bors manage their Indians with little
expense and no bloodshed. There
will be most earnest discussion this
winter, in Congress, over the propos-
ed transfer of the Indian Bureau to
the Wan Department. 1t would seem
plain that divided responsibility
like that now existing, would lead to
extravaganza if not to all other evils in.
cident to the present system. We be-
ieve the transfer will be made, if not
at the coming session then at the sue
ceeding one.

In this connection the Leader can
not fail to note the generous and whole
sould manner in which the country
papers of this State have rallied to the
project of having State Fair. The
editors of those journals, with that So
Der sense and patriotism so valuable
in these times, see that State Fair
will add to the prosperity of West
Virginia. To this end they give their
good word. For more than two years
the Leader has been talking up a
State Fair for West Virginia, and now
that the State press has so warmly re-
sponded there can be "no such work
as fail" To the country press then,
if State Fair is held here next year,
can be ascribed its success. For the
many favorable notices thus far to
hand the Leader extends to each and
every paper its warmest thanks

There has never been scale in

of the country press; any measure to
draft its dimensions must SAVIOR of the
character by which time and eternity
are measured. When the country
unites in its advocacy or opposition
of any project concerning the public
welfare, that project must either sue
coed or fail. Were the Leader asked
whether the city or country press ex-
erts the most influence it would an
swer emphatically, the country press!
The reader of the country paper has
an abiding faith in the honesty of the
publisher. He knows him personally,
and though his logic may not be SC

articles as brilliant, they go home
