son, when they are best and cheap
est, constitute the open secret Of this
strange cheapness Of canned foods.
Twenty years ago canned goods
were found only in few principal
stores in the larger cities; now, no
cross road grocer's stock is coEsid-
cred complete without them. This
revolution is mainly due to the great
grocery house of Thurber SEQ, of
this city, who own many canning
factories, and do business stated in
a recent publication to exceed that
of any four houses of that line in the
world. Realizing that confidence
must lie at the base of trade in
sealed packages, they placed a guar
antee on their goods, and authorized
retailers to refund the price when.
ever the purchaser of their goods
had cause for dissatisfaction. Deal
ers and consumers were quick to see
their interests just here, and this
doubtless accounts largely for the
popularity of canned goods bearing
the name Thurber.
We must not overlook the labelling
of these packet goods, which has be,
come great industry, and employs
some of the finest talent in this
country. A constant Improvement
goes on here, too, and Mary's ''ltte
lamb" and a host of other labels
recently designed by the Forbes
Lithographic Company, of Boston,
are positively meritorious chromos.

"Squaw men,"
These words are obviously applied to
white men living with Indian women. The
manner Of using these words creates an up-
just prejudice against a large lumber of
very worthy men.
A few days since We had occasion to men,
tion the names ola few of these persons to
a high official. With a sheer he turned bis
head away With a slow waggiog motion as
he Significantly shut his eyes: II have
seen some squaw men, and they were a bad
lot. They are all alike. They ought to be
removed from among the Indians. want
nothing to do with any of them"
This kind Of talk was different from what
We heard from another high official. In
speaking of squaw men, he said There
are some noble fellows among III. m. They
have q right TO marry Indian women il they
prefer them to other women. This gov. rn-
ment owes them at least protection in all
their rights"
1t would no: be fair to Judge officials by
the. bad ones. nor is it fair to Judge any
class of men by the worst representa-.
tives.
The subject comes up on account Of the
so.called "squaw men" living among the
Sioux Indians, asking simple justice at the
hands Of the government. But for them the
famous treaty Of 1868 at Laramie would not
have been made. 1t is q fact beyond dis
pute that the commissioners failed to obtain
the consent of the Sioux to leave the valley
of the Platte until the equaw men were
called into council. Many OF these men
had farms and homes. The commissioners
promised that they should be indemni6ed
for all sacrifice they made. With this un-
derstandiug the white men living with the
Sioux took the lead, and the Indians follow.

been paid for their sacrifices. The com.
