THE INDIANS MUST GO.

FL Nnag. H" ~. 81
Very suddenly and perhaps unexpect-
edly, the White River Utes ''show eff"
their base nature, as was detailed in
the LEADER of yesterday. 1t is the
old trouble-an aversion to work on
the part of themselves or anybody else.
But that was not the worst of it: They
took to abusing the agent by cutting
him and pushing him out of his own
dwelling house. Such acts as this
place the Utes beyond the pale of sym
pathy. 1t is useless to argue that they
know no better, for they do. They
would not have attempted such an
outrage had a company Of soldiers been
present at the agency. The agent had
but a few employees and these seem TO
have possessed no terror for the lazy
redskins. In q manner plain to be
understood the contempt Of the Utes
for the government and its policy of
making agencies self sustaining as far
as practicable, was expressed. The
poor agent feels that contempt in his
bones. The unfinished fields wear an
evidence Of that contempt. 1t is a pity
that the miserable miscreants them
selves cannot be made to feel the effects
Of that contempt in hungry stomachs,
just like the pig that upset its tub Of
swill. But no; the act will be forgiven
and the government will continue to
purchase food of a good character at
high prices, while the idle vagabonds
ioll around In idleness that approaches
criminality.
There was another point in their
action Of the stopping of blowing, that
was not explained by Mr.. Meeker. The
Utes well know that II white men
started fields, red men would one day
be compelled to work them. Hence
they nlpped labor In the bud. They
well know that the government will
keep them at all events.
While we are at it we will say that
the Utes have for some time been too
saucy anyhow. They have the detesta-
BILE habit of roaming of their reserva-
tion and setting Gre TO forests and prai-
ries, and killing white hunters and
prospectors. In fact there is a big
record against them, and under a prop
er system of Indian government, they
would be made to feel the weight of
punishment that properly belongs to
them.
To conclude is easy: The Utes must
go. The Denver papers have sounded
the slogan and so have we. The best
interests Of the western people demand
it; the development Of Colorado, north
and south, demands it; all that goes
to make up civilization demands 1t. 1t
is the iron logic of events that the In
dams must go. As they retreat civil
cation advances. The desert is made
to bloom and blossom rs the rose; the
mountains are made to yield their I'M
told millions of treasure; the plains are
crowded with cattle and the valleys
dotted with homesteads; riches are de-
veloped from the resources of nature;
the wealth of the country is increased.
There is everything to argue in favor Of
their going, going, going, unless they
themselves take up the Implements of
toll and do Justice by the advantages
and resources of nature.

THE Rev. De La Matyr is a green
hacker of republican antecedents and
the country counts upon him as one as
between republican and democratic
principles. But he may get cranky and
stand on the fence waiting for some
thing big as the Chicago Journal
points out. 1t says: If the election of
the next president and vice-president of
the United States should, perchance,
be thrown into the house of representa-
tives, De La Matyr, tie priestly green
hacker of indianapolis in congress,
would really have q full and complete
command of the situation. The cleo
ton Of the republican candidates for
congress in California completes the
membership of the present house. II
the question of the presidency should
have to be decided by that house, the
vote would have to be taken by state
delegations. The state delegations
stand politically, nineteen republicans,
eighteen democrats, and one greenback
Indiana. De La Matyr, a green
hacker, has the deciding vote of the
Indiana delegation, which stands six
republicans, six democrats and one
de La Matyr) g~reenbacker. 1t is a
possibility, therefore, that the Stat" of
of the Methodist preacher-politician of
Indiana will decide the next presidency.
For any ordinary man, it would be a
terrible responsibility to face, but De
La Matyr is a bold, brave man, who
has self-suficiency enough, il need be,
to take a contract to govern the whole
universe. He is an awfully ''big In

THE people way down in Mainen
are greatly excited oven the discovery
Of good paying silver mines. In one
district good quartz is found, which is
pronounced by experts to be equal to
the best recently discovered in Colora-
do. The only reason Spectators and
miners do not rush In, is that they will
not believe In the stories of quartz
veins being found in such a state a:
Maine. They appear to retain theil
boyhood school day estimate of thu
state-good only for lumber and bat
for iaw-breaking names.

THE Austrians expected to have a
hard old time of it in entering a point
near Novi Bazaar where the people were

trouble they received a friendly recep-
