The Indian Business.

The old quarrel between the army
and the Indian Bureau has broken
out again, and seems to be approach
ing q climax. 1t has been revived
by the sharp criticisms made by
Lieut.. Gen. Sheridan in his last an
nual report upon the alleged mis-
management and corruption of the
Bureau, for which he has been called
to account by Secretary Schurz and
Commissioner Hayt. Gen. Sheridan
is backed up by his superior officer,
General Sherman, and the remarks
of the latter upon the administration
of the Indian office are characterized
by that caustic vein which he knows
50 we'll how to employ. According
to Gen. Sherman, the question is
whether the Indian Bureau shall be
transferred to the War Department,
or the army shall be placed under the
control of the Indian Bureau. He
argues that the Indian agents pro.
woke the savages into outbreaks 10y a
system of corruption, through which
their supplies are withheld or stolen,
and when the Indians are thus Incl.
ted into taking the war path the
troops are called upon to pursue and
subdue them, at a heavy cost in
money and the shedding of blood.
1t is the whole system to which the
heads of the army object, and which
they say can never be uprooted until
this fashioL of dealing with the In
dions is reformed. That there are
many difficulties environing The adj
ministration of Indian affairs is not
doubtful, and there is no prospect of
securing better condition of things
until the true facts of the case are es-
tablished. There is much dispute as
to what are the real facts, for the ac-
cusati0ns brought against the Blu
reau, which forms part of the In.
terror Department, are denied by the
agents and the Commissioners. 1t
appears that Gen Sheridan is now
willing to produce the proofs of all
that he charges, that Sec. Schurz is
ready to meet them, and that Secre-
tary of War McCrary is to act as
sort of umpire between the two par
ties.
That it costs the country immens-
~ to take care of the Indians is ac-
knowledged on all sides, and it is
equally admitted on all sides that
the expense ought not to be so great
as 1t is, to say nothing of the neces-
sity of occasionally fighting them.
The peace policy is founded upon
ideas of humanity, and is in accord
ance with the better instincts of the

shall fill the figure. headed place OF
Governor and have the appointment
of subordinate officers in the counties,
with the usual chance of United
States Senator, but those of interest
to the bone and sinew of the land
the farmer and the tax payer.
The man who next receives the
nomination for Governor and the
men who are to aid him in the legis-
lative body must not be professional
politicians to ensure the support of
the Democracy of this State. In the
next Legislature the great questions
of a one Judge system, in place of the
three costly yelled ensigns of Justice,
the abolition entirely Of our present
expensive Orphans Court, and the
substitution of more simple and
less expensive mode of setting up
estates, equal taxation of all property
in the State and the lifting Of the
burden from the producing and mer-
camille classes and placing it where
it rightfully belongs, will leave but a
poor margin for those who wish to
go there merely for personal aggran-
diZement.

this is not exactly the time to make
nominations for the good Of the par
ty. Let the flush Of victory pale up
on the brow of our enemies, open

The Republicans in 1880.


There are certain Democrats and
Assistant Democrats who insist that
the prospect for Democratic victory
in 1880 is excellent, because the Dem
Ocratic and Greenback vote combined
exceeds the Republican vote in New
York, Ohio, Michigan, Illinois and
Pennsylvania. On the other hand,
there are certain Republicans who
profess to believe that the party can
now elect anybody with ease, and
need not take any further trouble to
educate public opinion on the ques-
tons of currency and public faith.
Both are palpably in TIE wrong.
The Republican party has not won the
battle of 1880, but it has discovered
how to win it. 1t has the vantage
ground of a clear and honest purpose,
in which it is sustained not only by
impregnable reasoning, but by the
conscience, the common sense and all
the material interests of the country.
1t can be assailed with success only
by hearty and determined coopera
ton of three distinct elements--sin-
cere hard-money Democrst like Bay
ard, Democratic repudiators like
Voorhees,, and Republican Green
hackers like Butler. BY what process
can these three elements be fused in
to one effective party, if the Repub-
licans do their duty?
1t is commonly said that the most
serious difficulty will be with the
hard money Democrats. We have
not yet so mean an opinion of men
of this class as to suppose that they
can be swallowed by any party which
will satisfy the demands of the
Greenback families or the VOORHEES,
Pendleton Democrats. But there is
one other difficulty. The Greenback
men want new party, in which
they can take front seats. The VoOr-
hees Democrats want an old party,
in which they already have front
seats. The Greenback faction wants
to swallow the Democratic party, as
Butler tried to swallow MasSachu-
sets Democracy. But the Demo-
cratic repudiators want to swallow
the Greenback party, as they nearly
did in Pennsylvania and Ohio. 1t is
not at all clear which will succeed,
but it is very certain that there are a
great many men of Republican ante
cedents, who voted the Greenback
ticket this year, but can never be
dragged into any party led and con-
trolled by the repudiating and rebel
Democrats.
1t is clear enough that the Repub-
lican party cannot afford to shirk its
DUTY. If it paltcrs with financial
heresies or hereticS, or merely falls
to exert itself ITO arouse and inform
public opinion, it will have no easy
task and will deserve defeat. whether
it escapes OF not.-N Y. Tribune.

feel it is a cowardly and contempt
tible part, to arrest and punish these
instruments of Governors and Mem
bers of Congress, while the more in
telligent, hence more responsible,
criminals are permitted to go I'M
whipped ofjuslice for their abhorent
crimes.
General Sherman shows a loyal
purpose to support Sheridan in the
warfare to which the latter is chal-
enged by Mr.. Schurz. And though
Sheridan and other Army officers
may have allowed themselves rather
too much latitude in speaking of the
Indian Agents management, it is
felt that in spirit their structures are

people. Even if it does not succeed
there is no question but what it de-
serves to succeed. We do not under
stand the army officers to attack
the policy itself, but simply the
mode in which it is executed, or
rather non-eXecuted. They complain
that many Of the agents are rogues;
that there is a combination between
them to defraud the Indians, to com,
pei payment from the Government
for supplies never furnished, and to
vastly magnify the bills for the poor
md mean quality Of what provisions,
goods, &C., are permitted TO reach the
Indians. If matters are so bad the
evidence should not be concealed.
The fruition of the peace policy rests
upon the entrus tment to good men OF
the work of carrying it out. 1t can
never be anything but a failure if
manipulated by men who take the
positions of agents merely to reap
dishonest gains from their offices.
At any rate, an investigation is need
full, and although it will not be the
first that has been had, we may hope
that it will produce more satisfactory
results than those that have preeed-
ed it. Let us have the wrong doing
revealed aud brought home to the
responsible individuals, and then
Congress can decide whether it is
wise or not to give the War Depart
ment the supervision Of the whole
business of managing the unruly
wards Of the nation. - BdHO. Ameri

The steamship Pemmerania, Of the
Hamburg American line, which left
New York November l4th. was sunk
on Monday night in the British
Channel, off FOlkeStOne, by coii-
sion, during dense fog, with the
Welsh bark Noel Ellian, of Carna-
Won, bound from Rotterdam for Car
diff, in ballast. The Pommerania
had stopped at Cherbourg and Ply
mouth to land and receive passen-
gers, and was on her way to Ham
burg. She was commanded by Capt,
SchWensen, who went down with his
ship after securing the departure of
all the passengers that her boats
could accommodate. He fired rockets
as signals of distress, and the
steamer Glengarry hurried to the
spot, saving one hundred and sixty
of the passengers and crew. Fifty
eight are supposed to be lost. Four
collision, leaving only five available,
and one of these was overloaded and
sunk. The accident occurred about
midnight, and the Glengarry cruised
in the vicinity till daylight. Miss
Loursa Laumann, of Akron, o., one
Of the rescued passengers, speaks in
the highest terms Of Capt. Schwensen
who had celebrated, when last in
Hamburg, his one hundred and
twenty fifth passage across the Att
lantic. Forty four second and third
class passengers and sixty five seamen
rescued from the Pommerania have
arrived at London by rail. Only FIVE
of the first class passengers have
reached Dover, and they are believed
to be the only ones saved.
