The prospect for a severe Indian war
in Colorado next season is excellent,
unless the government backs down
from its demands and allows the ties
to have their own way, without pun
ishment for the agency murders. The
labors of the peace commission have
been without result, other than DEM
Onstrating that the ties will not sur
render the murderers, and held COM
municatioE with the commissioners
only to gain time for the coming con-
test. Another bloody war, costing
many valuable lives and million, of
dollars Will once more demonstrate the
absurd folly of leaving the manage
mcnt of the Indians in the hands of
eastern civilians, who know no more
of their present needs and nature than
can he acquired from reading century
old history of King Philips war, or
the inspiring tale of the last of the
Mohicans. The time i, not far dis

The state of affairs in Maine may be
denominated as critical, the excite
mcnt being very great in all quarters.
Indignation meetings are being held
all over the state by the republicans,
who continue to insist that the demo-
Gratis have been guilty of the grosscst
frauds, while the latter say they have
proceeded only according to the strict
letter of the law. The republicans are
anxious to have the disputes settled
by the courts, but the opposition re-
fuse to do this, and persist in counting
out the republican majority claimed
elected to the Legislature. This affair
is regarded by many as the opening of
the presidential campaign, and an in
dication that the opposition are fully
determined to elect their candidate by
any and all means they can bring to
bear upon the contest.

SimcOe Reservation.

We learn from the agent, Father
Wilbur, that there were about s.
600 Indians before Moses was sep
Grated from them, and including
about 2)O Palouses and the Piutes
aud Bannacks, on the Simcoe Res
crvation. In former years, they
were numbered at 5000. OF these
about 500 arc considered rovers, who
roam around over the country. Last
year report showed that there were
5000 acres under cultivation, and
$1,000 or moro acres under the
fence. The Indians nave substantial
dwellings,, aud have long adopted the
customs of civilization. The day
school has an average attendance of
20 scholars, under the tuition of Miss
LOWE Whitcomb. There is an aver
age attendance on church service Of
800. A new church ediiice has been
lately erected on the reservation
Hspable of comfortably seating $50,
three-fourths of the expense of which
was born by the Indians themselves.
Father Wilbur presented tho church
with new bell. At the Sabbath
school there is an average atterd-
abce of 200, under the supe,intend-
ence Of Mr. Kuykendall, and at the
station, somc distance FROM the
Agency there is another Sunday
school. The new steam saw mill
and machinery cost SIS 900, and not
one dollar was received from the
government. Its capacity is II.
600 feet of lumber in 10 hours. All
the work around the mill, cutting,
etc, is done by Indians, with the
exception of two white overseers.
The lumber is all used on the reser-
vation in building fences, erect
ing buildings, improvements, etc.
These Indians are spoken of as very
apt workmen around the saw mill.
The noise of the machinery is such
that orders have to be given by signs,
and the least sign is quickly under
stood and obeyed by these Indian
boys. The harness shop, the shoe
shop and blacksmith shop at the
agency are all carried on by Indians.
1t is astonishing how Father Wilbur
has got his Indians under the dis
cipline he has, and it speaks well
for the mind anil heart of the agent.
His object is to teach them habits of
industry teach them the advantage e
Of substantial dwellings,, and thus
root them to the soil from which
they gain their sustenance, and then
kAey will le..ve of their wild rowing
habits. .-Ddlles Times.

" A Free Press"

The beautiful idea of getting
something for nothing is nowhere
more readily traceable than in a
newspaper Office.
So much has been spoken, written
and sung about ." free press" that
people have come to accept the term
in a>sense altogether too literal.
If man has scheme of any kind
terminating he just steps into the
editorial room and details it, with
the remark: elm not quite ready
to advertise yet, but few words,
will help me along" He gets the
few words, but never gets ready to
advertise.

put in a piece save me q dozen pa

with, as though he had bestowed u

gaze on such marvel of intricacy.

The lawyer with strong prejudices
against advertising, IS fond of seeing
his cases reportedin full in the news
papers, with an occasional reference
to his exceedingly able manner of
conducting the same. 1t is cheaper
that advertising. d
In fact everybody, who has an ak
to grind, asks the newspaper to turn
the crank, and forget to even say
thank you, but will kindly take
free copy of the paper as part pay
for furnishing the news.
The pre- IS being" free" all hands
seem bound to get aboard and ride
it to death. That is why newspapers
are so rich that they can afford to
pay double the price for white paper,
and never esa Congress to aid them
by removing the duty on wood pulp.
