THE pDNCAS AGAIN,

Our readers will have noted that the case
of this tribe to which we called attention
the other day as probably the most cruel
among the many outrages committed against
these people In the last year in the name of
law, has been decided in their favor. Out in
Omaha, at least. the idea has come to the
surface at last, that an Indian is man with
human rights, and not mere head of live
stock to be shipped from place to place and
imprisoned at the whim of military officers,
or starved to death by agents who Will profit
by the starving.
The terms of the decision by Judge Dundy
read oddly enough in free country. The
second century of the Republic is a late date
to announce that any body of men born heirs
to the soil, intelligent, moral, Woodworking
Christians, "have the inalienable right to
"lfe, liberty and the pursuit of happiness as
"long as they obey the laws and do not tres
.spass on forbidden ground AS much would
be granted to them in Russia; in fact, the
Car is charged with no more arbitrary act OF
Injustice than this whole POnca business has
been. When he ships the NihilistS Off TO ST.
IBERIA he has at least the excuse that they are
disloyal. But Standing Bear and his people
were ruthlessly dragged from their homes,
where they were leading peaceable, civilized
lives. to malarous swampS, in which one
third died, simply at the whim OF the
young Commissioners clerks, who really
transact the business at the Indian De-
partment at Washington. When they
fled for their lives back to their old homes
General Crook treated them as escaped con
victs. The editor of an Omaha newspaper,
Tibbles by name, conceived the idea that these
things were not exactly in accordance with
that profession of liberty so loudly made by
this country among other nations, and he had
the courage to put the matter. to the test.
When Tibbles and the Government were
arrayed against each other Tibbles Won
He is about fifty years in advance of his gen.
Grafton.
All honor to Tibbles! But now what is to
become of the Poncas2 They have lost THEN
homes, the tribe is enfeebled by death, dis
ease and imprisonment, for no fault of theiI
own, but through mistake Of the Government
1t Will help them but little to rebuke General
Crook, VINO WAS only obeying orders. How
will the Government rectify its mistake'

cheerfully subscribe to it. The stronger IT IS
made the better we shall like it. Dir. Herman
adds that the use of the Army at the polls
ought to have been prohibited by the unanl-
"mous vote of both parties" Here Is ms
second mistake, for it hos been prohibited 10y

tence that the prohibition is not ehecuVe

dent has shown in his veto messages ana as
the press has demonstrated over ana over
again, there il a series of very stringent
statutes forbdding the sort of interference
Mr.. Herman breads, and imposing severe pen
alties upon all persons guilty of it, making II
a criminal offence even for subordinate officers
to take troops to the polls in obedience to the
commands of their military superlors. lhese
laws have never been violated, ana there Is
not the least reason to suppose that they ever
will be ; but if any additional legislation can
be devised to make assurance doubiy sure
President Hayes has promised to approve IL,
provided it does not go beyond Its prolessed
purpose and interfere with legitimate func-
tons of the Executive. The President In TINS
matter is in full accord with the whole
Republican party. The very idea OF military
interference with elections is repugnant TO
every American citizen. For that reason the
Republicans and the Democrats have heartily
concurred In passing laws to prevent lt'-and
they have prevented 1t. We repeat now, Tor
the benefit of Mr.. Herman and some other
mistaken persons, that the bill recently passed
by the Democratic caucus would not prevent
what was prevented already. and was not in
tended to do so. The cry of "No troops at
"the polls" is fraudulent cry. 1t is an I'M
pudent attempt to impose upon the American
people and, if we are not mistaken In our
estimate of American self-respect, the people
will resent it.
The Republican party will not be tempted
into false issue, and the public will not be
humbugged. If the Democracy wish to repeal
the election laws let them set about the task
honorably. We shall be happy to debate the
question with them and to meet them In O
fair contest. But to attempt to nullliy O
whole system of Federal laws for the sake OF
getting rid of one which they cannot or dare
not repeal, Is q disgraceful and Revolutionary
proceeding which the Republican party WI
resist to the bitter end.

A DELARARE ELIMINATCR.

The Providence that turned over the United
States Senate to the party now frOiicking in
that end of the Capitol seemed inscrutable
until it revealed to Us Senator Salisbury, of
Delaware. That statesman had been sitting
in the Senate, 1t is true, for several years,
but in so torpid a state that the Senate knew
not that he could unfold himself and the
world at large was utterly unconscious of him.
He first bulged upon the public gaze, if we
may be allowed the expression, early in the
present session, in that remarkable little burst
of confidence which at once made him con-
spicuous, wherein he announced to the Re-
pubIicans in that body that they need not con-
Germ themselves any longer with the proceed.

NEW. YORK DAILY TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, MAY &c. IS

Congressman living within its borders was
John Il. Lynch, colored man OF education,
good character, and considerable talent
for public affairs, who was highly esteemed
by his Republican associates in the House.
He was n candidate for reelection, and with
the $4,000 majority at his back and the fact
that the Democrats had made the district as
heavily Republican as they could, ne
thought himself sure of success. General
Chalmers thought otherwise. He believed that
the " Mississippi Plan" was equal to all re-
ouirements and he came out as candidate
against Lynch. With such vigor did he put
the "Plan in operation that he took certlii-
cate of 5000 Democratic majority with him
to Washington. Mr.. Lynch wanted to ex-
pose the crimes by which that ma
iority was obtained. but Democratic
House did not choose to give him an oppOr-
tunity. At the recent election, in 1878, Cen
eral Chalmers had everything his own way.
The Mississippi Plan" had destroyed the
Republican party in the Shoe-string Dis
trict. Several thousands of Republicans have
left the District within the past few weeks,
seeking in Kansas a land where the rifle
club is unknown in politics, and where there
is no General Chalmers and no Mississippi
Plan.
We do not think any comment Is necessary
on this brief but suggestive chapter from the
political history of the eX-COnfederate Brlga-
der who wants to starve out the Army OF
the United States.
