4 Nice Mess.

The New York Hcrdid contains Il
paragraph upon the intermarriagcs in
that city between Cinnamon and the
women Of other races. The Hclulti
states that nearly three hundred Chi
namen have white wives mostly all
Spanish and Irish, and one has Il color
cd wife. The Hcrdid thinks this
feature hopeful one, as the progeny of
these mircd races will stand in the atti-
tade of n connecting link between the
Celestial immigrants and this country.
The sophi~try of the EEruid is too thin
Ia deceive even the most superficial OBJ
server. The connecting HRk between
the white and black races in this coun-
try mas not increased the respect or
sympathy between these races. Nor
will the children of Cinnamon and that
class of white women who marry Chi
namen tend 10 increase the sympathy
between the two races. Ii is needless
10 say that the class of white women
who mix with the Chinese are not IA
class who carry either sympathy or re-
spect even with their own race. The
New York Hcrdid is in favor of Chinese
immigration and puts forth the above
idea evidently rs an argument TO catch
the sympathy of sentimentalists.

The Ute Indians.

The Ute tribe of Indians is one of
the most powerful i'm the West, and
while il has held hereditary friendship
for white people up TO the present, Il
possible war with il has always been
dreaded by the frontier troops. In 1873
large number of miners trespassed on
the Ute reservations, and the Indians
boldly declared that the miners must
leave or there would be war. A militia
~ force cleared their country of the in
truders and trouble was averted. Lieut..
+. III. Ruffner, of the Corps of Engin-
eers, who made "A reconnaissance of
their reservations, speaks i'm his report
of the Ute Indians as powerful and in
telligent tribe, occupying the entire
mountain region of Colorado, of un-
doubted courage, and possessed of all
modern improvements i'm firearms.
The Utes on the Coloradoreservations
number between 9, 800 and 5000 souls, of
whom the larger part belong TO the Los
Pinos Agency. Only about 600 or 200
report at the White River Agency.
The tribe is divided into number of
bands, of whom the Tabequeches, Mua-
ches, Capotes and Weinimuches are
cared for at the Los Pinos Agency, and
the Grand Rivers, Yampas, Unitahs
and Peahs at the White River Agency.
About as many more are scattered over
the far Western States-Arizona, Utah,
California, Nevada, and New Mexico.
Though the Utes acknowledge the su-
premacy of the Government, no tribe
of Indians is more averse to manual
labor and has yielded less to civilizing
influences, for the reason that until
quite lately their presentations abound
ed with game, and all settlements We're
at a remote distance. They keep large
herds of sheep and goats for food, but
pay very little attention TO farming,
although they posses an abundance of
rich farming lands, which form more
than one-third of the arabic soil i'm the
State. In case of war they are able to
fall back upon the mountain fastnesses,
and can hold out as long as did the Mo-
docs in the Lava Chicago Week
" Ne,cs.

Again the daily papers are furnishing
the public with the news of am Indian
war. This time with the UfcS of Colo
RADIO. the ties are said Ia he "A kindly
disposed tribe, but have been wrongcd
10y the greedy encroaching white set
tiers, until they have rcsorted To vio-
lencc, which means, that another op-
portunity has been given the dominant
race, that is the ciCiii-od and Christian
white race TO civilize few hundreds of
a poor and despised race, whose inter
ests are not compatible with those of
the white race. We predict for the In
dian, no final rest until he releases his
hold and claim upon his hunting
grounds, and takes his chances for find
ing happier country"beyond the solar
walk or milky way."

Wicked 0wensbOrO.

The churches of Owensboro are able
to afford room for probably 1000 bodies,
and an indefinite number of souls. But
how many souls and bodies are in them,
on an average, each Sabbath? Perhaps
not one-third of that number. The re-
ligious problem of the day is, how to
secure full attendance and reach the
popular heart generally. The few well
conditioned, orderly people who regu-
larry attend comprise almost the entire
congregations. To these religious OBJ
scrvance becomes habit, however or
whatever he their faith, which needs
not much encouragement. But outside
of them is a great world beset with pas
sions abounding in good and evil impul-
ses which is scarcely reached by the
church ministrations. The good shep-
herd leaves his ninety and nine and goes
in search of the one stray sheep. But
here are ninety and nine astray, and
the absorbing question is, how shall
they he brought To the fold. Ii is a
question for earnest efforts at solution
all over the United States no doubt, and
Owensboro especially demands its con-
sideration.-Ddily Messenger.
We must look TO the daily Messenger
to grapple with the problem above, AS it
is the only untried means available.

THE season for strikes has come, oper-
atives i'm the factories i'm different
branches of trade, at Cincinnati and
other western cities have inaugurated
their fall campaign. Ii certainly is a
misfortune that our capitalists and work.
ing men cannot better harmonize their
interest. The question of an excess of
laborers is coming to be one of great mo-
ment i'm this country. Weare receiving
large additions to our mechanical classes
by European and Chinese immigration,
and the bulk of new comers are poor,
depending wholly upon their labor for a
living. Many are reduced TO the neces-
sity Of working for bare subsistence,
while Others failing i'm this become
trdmps before they know it; the result
of the whole matter is that our married
mechanics cannot live respectfully up
on their wages. We may as well make
up our minds i'm this country to come
down to a lower strata of living. The
tendency is inevitably toward a system
of aristocracy, the few will control the
money and the many will toll hard for
the mere privilege of living. If we had
our say we would shut our door to the
rapid influx of immigration which is
deluging our working mems interests
and giving such advantages to the cap
italists and monopolies.

dark waters of afliiction can truly sym
pathize with such sorrow as theirs or re-
alize how hard it is to say, "Thy will be
done" The closing scene of her life
will never be fogotten by those who
We're present. Though her voice was
nearly hushed i'm death she still whis-
pered praises To Him who was gently
loosing the cords of life and with almost
her expiring breath eXhorted her weep
ing friends to meet her in heaven. She
has exchanged the companionship of
mortals for the society of angels; the
converse of earthly friends for commun-
ion with the spirits of just men made
perfect in the church Militant for the
church Triumphant. She cannot come
to us hut we can go to her. "Lct me
die the death of the righteous and let my
last end he like hers" May God bless
all upon whom the weight of this be-
ricNement falls. &. NJ. FORD.
