THE INDIAN QUESTION.
Secretary Sc7ss&rx's Scheme.

secretary SCha&T<'S Scheme.
Secretary Schurz expresses the greatest
concern as TO the movements which will
undoubtedly be made in Congress the COM
ing session in relation to the Indian cues.
ton. Heis convinced that strong oombina-
tions will be formed to break the treaties
which exist between the government and
several of the Indian tribes, with the avowed
intent of opening to settlement large tracts
of habitable mimi, and agricultural lands
Secretary Schurz has expressed the fear that
the government will not be strong enough
to resist the march of empire, ans he will
recommend to Congress, as he has already
advised the Indians. the passage of laws
dividing the Indian lands in severalty among
them and securing individual titles. Sec
rotary Schurz, since his trip to the Indian
country, is more than ever convinced of the
danger and unwisdom of the pastoral sys-
tenn, under which no individual could ever
acquire title to homestead or be protected
in individual rights. Secretary Schurz fears
that in the future the Indians will suffer
great loss and injustice, unless they divide
their lands equltably among themselves and
secure an impregnable title. It appears that
one reason why the chiefs, who are more
intelligent and better informed of the prog. .
ress of civilization, object to the plan for
dividing the lands in severalty, is that such
q movement would result in the overthrow
of the tribal system, and would deprive the
chiefs themselves of their great influence
and prestige. Secretary Schurz will recon-
mend to Congress the passage of general
law which with enable every head of an In
dian family in the Indian Territory to locate
16O or 800 acres of land upon his reserva-
ton, to be secured to him or to his children
by patent after q continuous residence
there of twenty-five years, during which
period it will not be lawful to mortgage or
sell the land. Mr.. Schurz believes that
such measure will preserve the present
pastoral system and afford sufficient time for
the Indians, under wise administration, to
learn the ways of civilization and become
fully able to maintain and defend them
selves, and that such plan will also prove
an eitectUal obstacle to the encroachments
OF the whites in violation of treaty rights,
lnasmuch as the Indian would have valid
title, and he would be sustained by the
courts and protected by all the power of the
government.
Secretary Schurz also proposes to sell the
surplus lands of the Indians, and to invest
the proceeds for the benefit of the respective
tribes, but he does not contemplate opening
the Territory to white settlements. MIR.
Schurz proposes not to open the Indian
Territory to immigration, but to enable the
Indians to prepare for immigration, when in
the course of events it will certainly come.

A New Military Post Proposed.

The commanding general of this department,
Dakota, has in contemplation the establish
ment of a new military post, or fort, at Wolf
Point, on the Missouri river. To this end
Gen. Terry has recommended the location of
the fort, and the same has been urged upon
the war departmen by Gen. Sheridan. It is
believed that if the new post is established it
will put an end to all future raids from Sitting
Bulls Canadian Indians, as it will occupy a
point near the Poplar Greek or Yanktonnais
Indian agency for the purpose of observing
those semi-hostiles and preventing intercourse
with Sitting Bulls band; and ia at favorite
Indian crossing of the river. Besides, with
Fort Assinniboine, the new post will complete
the Gordon of forts along, or near, the British
frontier, in supporting distance, The neces-
sity of the new post, from strategic stand
point, will be fully represented to the war de-
partment. In case the Washington authori-
ties adopt the suggestion of Generals Terry
ard Sheridan, work on the new post will be
undertaken next summer, or, rather, early in
the spring, with Gen. j. W. Davidson, colonel
of the Second cavalry, likely in command.

UNION SERVICE.
An Address by Rev. NJ. ID. Edwards.

The second service of the revival series, last
night, showed an improved attendance. The
singing was excellent, and the selections ap
propriate. The meeting was opened by chap
lain Rev. Smith. reading from Luke XXI "
Rev. MIR. Edwards preached from XIV. Luke
Is, 16: Sand it came to pass that while they
communed together and reasoned, Jesus him.
self drew near and went with them but theil
eyes were holden that they should not know
him." It will be noticed, said the speaker,
:, First-That in times of greatest need, ia the
time of Christ's appearing. His disciples were
discouraged and disheartened, by the death of
CHRIST, and in the moment of despair aud
dependency he appeared to them, he appeared
thus to the woman of Tyre and Sidon, and to
the women of Samaria, also to Simon Peter
after the trial of this disciple.
To-day as then human extremity is Ohrist's
Opportunity. The sinfulness of man is the op-
portunity of the Gospel. We may not always
DC aware OF the nearness of the Savior until
trial or trouble awakes US to the fact. MANY
object to religious meetings at this season be.
sick postpone the visit of his physician until
he be we'll enough to entertain him.
Now is the time for religious meetings, be-
cause the need for them is so apparent. We
feel as If we must look to God for help, for
the help of man is so feeble. If there is a
pressing In store Tor US 1t must come from
God.
Second thought-Christ comes when least ex-
pected, Christ came to Lazarus when hope
was given up, and yet he was raised from the
dead to the Joy of his friends.
Christians should not judge by appearances,
but live in faith and hope. Oftentimes in
times Of greatest spiritual apathy the most
wonderful outpourings of the spirit appear.
Again, we are not always aware of Christ's
presence with us for our eyes are holden; he
may be with us in a special manner and yet we
know it MOTTO the speakers knowledge sew
eral even at this early day are looking for and
have found their savior. What we need is an
anticipatory faith and earnest prayer. The
desert of Sahara is not dry because of Absence
OF moisture above, but for other physical
causes. So the blessings Of free salvation are
always above us, but our souls are not watered
because for want of faith
Mr.. Breed made the closing prayer, after
which he announced that Major Whittle would
be in the city and hold the services this even
ing at the House Of Hope, commencing at 7:sO
nahan. The party will stop at the Windsor
hotel, where they can be seen.

inning was as long as one of Sec.
retary Evarts's sentences, and the
marker was nearly exhausted from
overwork before the game was half
ended. Grant led off by making

turning handspring over the ban
