An impression is gaining ground in
this part Of the country that there is to
be another Indian war next season,
and that INSCRIPTIONS whites are at
the bottom Of it. The cold murders
of Umatilla Indiansrecently perpetrated
point that way. Some people are bold
enough to say that the expenditure of
100000 by Uncle Samuel each
summer for two years past has incul-
Gated the idea in the heads of the up
per country people that the expendi-
ture must be made to come round every
year.

doomed to suffer most severely from it. The
whole trouble is with the government, that
deliberately refuses to keep its faith. Treaty
pledges are ignored, and the promises of IT,
ties to farms on the reservations are held OF
no account. The Indians have the example
of the governments dealing with the Nez
Perces before them, and they are resolved to
make their stand in the homes where they
are. If we put with this arbitrary and
faithless dealing on the governments part
the frauds and robbery practiced by agents
like Livingston at Crow Greek and Cheyenne,
it would challenge humanity itself to find
an excuse for bearing in patience series of
wicked wrongs thus accumulated upon a
suffering race. The very worm will turn
when trodden upon, and the red man, no
matter how degenerated he may be, Ihay
surely be allowed an equal privilege. If
anything ought to open the eyes Of pro-
fessed Christian country to abuses which
stand to its permanent shame it Is the de-
velopment that more than explains this new

NJOTICE is hereby given to the citizens of

Indianapolis, Center township, Marion coun-
ty, Indiana, that I, Henry Geisel, male
inhabitant of said ward, over the age of twen-
ty-one years, will apply to the board of county
commissioners of said county, at their next

year, spurious, vinous and malt liquors, in
a less quantity than quart at a time, with
the privilege of allowing the same to be drank
on my premises.
The precise location of the premises where
on desire to sell said liquors, is described as

prosperity, whether there is any real cause
for it or not.
The political pot has commenced boiling,
and the question as to who shall represent
this congressional district in the next con-
gress Is being discussed. Colonel Steele was
the choice of the. epublicans of this county for
the nomination on that ticket, and that he
was defeated leaves many of them feeling
rather sore. Colonel Crosse, who, through the
chicanery of some Delaware county politi-
cians did receive the nomination, has beer
here since he was placed upon the thorny
track, and endeavored to pour oil upon the
troubled waters, but his coming accomplish
ed nothing so far as we can see. His record
which is not the most brilliant in the world,
is much talked about, and that little affair
at Richmond Will be thoroughly investi-
gated by the moral portion of his party, as
they are sick of the nesthid1ng business and
will not support any man who has
penchant in that direction. The friends
of Captain Meyers, the democratic nominee,
are sanguine of his election. They boast
because his war record is brilliant one, and
they compare it with pride with that of
Colonel GrOse, who was very unpopular in
the army, where he had the reputation of
gobbling supplies intended for disabled Indi-
ana soldiers. While they say that the dis
trict is republican they contend that Cap
tain Meyers can easily overcome the major
ity that now appears against him and come
out of the fight with good majority on his
side of the sheet. This event is certainly to
be desired by the better class of citizens of
the Muncie district, for we all know Captain
Meyers to be a man who would be an honor
to US. His reputation has never been
smlrched by the slanderous tongue. He is
man possessing all the qualities laid down
by the father of our party-honesty and
capability, and with disposition that sends
his heart out in continuous longing for the
welfare of the distressed. We know him,
and can truly say we never met but one
other man of his disposition, and that one
was the noble Voorhees,. and | say this as
one who has felt his kindness

Her eyes were bright; her figure slight,
And light as any fairy;
Her nose was heavenward inclined;
Her manners sweet and airy.
Her mouth was like a rosebud;
Her voice like any linnet;
her head was little, and fear
Had very little in 1t.
But then so artless was her art
Ny heart could not resist her;
And added to her other charms,
She had a pretty sister.
They bloomed like any double rose,
They blushed double pink;
One graced the name of Laura;
The other, Kate, think.
When left alone with Laura,
Love orged his soft dictate:
And in sweet Laura's absence,
dotted more-On Kate.
And thus to choose between them
IT were treason to decide,
Because had been happiest
With either for my bride.
To ilch one flower, and leave her
Companion all alone,
To pine in single sadness
Would need a heart Of stone.
And that's the reason, ladies,
I'm still your partisan,
For being single hearted,
