WISCONSIN appropriated $4,000 four
years ago for the man who would invent a
practicable steam road wagon. Last sum-
mer machine was exhibited which ran
from Oshkosh to Madison, after many mis-
haps, but II was so imperfect that the pro-
.iector did not get the money. The present
House has given him $1,000, nevertheless,
and the senate IS likely to agree. The Mil
waukcc Sentinel is sure that the Oshkosh
machine no more complies with the provls-
ions OF the law, than does the present Leg
islaturc act according TO the wishes of the
people.

THE STATE LUNAtIC ASYLUM.

A bill has been introduced in the AS
sembly to provide for taking care of
the insane of the State of Nevada. The
Governor, State Controller and Sur
veyor General are constituted Board
of Commissioners to carry out its pro-
visions. The Board shall have power,
and are directed to purchase land and
buildings, or land not exceeding two
hundred acres, and erect buildings
thereon for an asylum of sufficient ca
pacity for 100 patients, said building to
be completed within eighteen months
after the passage of the Act. The
Board of Commissioners are to have
full and exclusive control of the grounds,
buildings. property and inmates of the
Asylum, aud all persons committed for
insanity after the passage of the Act are
to be sent to the Asy lum of this State,
and at the expiration of the contract
with Drs. Langdon IL Clarke of Stock.
ton. all Insane persons from this State
under their care are to be removed to
the Asylum of this State
1t is toierably certain that this bill or
one of similar import will be passed by
the present Legislature. AS the public

THE SHERIDAN AND sCHURZ
WAR.

The Secretary of the Interior. 10 his
reply to General Sheridsn's charges
against the Indian Bureau. endeavors
to create the impression that under the
present Administration all the Indian
agents are honest. aud give the Indians
all the Government appropriates them
1t is we'll known fact, however, thar
the Indians at the Milheur Agency
were subsisting exclusively on fish
caught by themselves in the Malheur
river last summer, when the Btnnocks,
who had taken to the war path, arrived
at the Agency mounted on good horses
and armed with good guns, which they
had stolen. and provided with sugar,
coffee and other luxuries. which they
had taken from freight wagons which
they robbed on the Keltou aud Boise
roads. AT that time tbs Government
was paying for the support OF the NAL
heur Indians. and 1t is generally be
lieved that if they had then been re-
ceivlng the ration, which Congress b i'd
provided they should have. that none
OF them would have j 'iued the Ban
nocks. Sheridan accused the Indian
Bureau of mismanagement and its
agents of robbiug the Government and
cheating the Indians; Schurz. whose
knowledge of the manner In which
affairs are conducted st Iudlan Agencies
Is derived from the reports of the
agents, who are Interested. denies this
but the settlers on the frontier know
that Sheridan Is right and that Schnrz
Is mistaken. The people of frontier
States and Territories are unanimous
in favor OF transferring the care of the
Indians to the War Department.; but
the Indian Bureau is uoi, and by Great
ing false sentiment in the east, where
the people are made to believe that the
Indians are being civilized and Chris
tlanized, 1t Is not probable that Con
gress will make the transfer, aud the
result will be Indian outbreaks and the
murder of settlers by the infuriated
savages. as heretofore. The military
are yearly assigned the task of whip
ping the Indians, " 10 knowing that they
are being wropged by the agents, seek
redress by Devastating the frontier. and
to the military should be assigned the
duty of caring for them when they are
temporarily subdued.

FREE HIGH SCHOOLS.

There ought to be several Free High
Schools in this county. Boys and girls
are sent away to school every year
who might be educated at home if the
proper steps were taken. There are
pupils from Kenosha county now at
tending the schools at Oshkosh, White
water, Platteyille, Madison, Racine.
Evanston, Geneva, Woodstock. Bur
lington, Rochester, and probably other
places. There are others who would
like to go, and who ought to 60, but
their parents are not able to send them.
There are others whose parents are
afraid to send them away to school.
Said a man to me the other day,-"I
would send my boy to to school.
but | do not know what he would do
when he got there. He is bright an d
smart, but easily led; and I am afraid
to send him to a city while he is so
young" He was only echoing the SEN
timents of many a father. IF we had
high school in each town, the boys
and girls could be educated at home.
The money would be kept at home.
The common schools would be left TO
the primary pupils. The cost, after
the school-houses are built, would not
be much, if any more than it is now.
Pleasant Prairie and somers, being
near Kenosha, probably will never
start any; but it would be better if
they did. Each of the other towns need
one at least. Salem ought to have two.
-one at Wilmot, and one at Salem
Station. The law is simple and straight.
All it needs is some one to move in the
