TIE PROSPECTIVE SACK OF LIMA.

1t appears almost certain that in, a short
time we shall be able to lay before our
readers graphic accounts of the capture
and sack of Lima. The Chilean army
is slowly but steadily advancing on the
doomed capital of Peru, and the announce.
ment has already been made that as soon
as it is taken the city will be delivered
over to the troops for pillage. What this
means we suppose every body understands.
It means that rape and murder, robbery
and arson, outrages and cruelties of every
description that a savage and intoxicated
soldiery can invent, will be committed !;
that neither sex nor age will be spared !;
that all the devilish and brutal passions Of
the conquerors will be given free scope; that
there will be neither pity nor help for the
victims and that when the sack is over
Lima viii probably be committed to the
flames, together with the remains OF her
butchered inhabitants. This is what the
sack of city has always involved, and as
the Chileans are little better than savages,
and are moreover deeply exasperated
against their enemies, IL must be expected

Sacramento daily record-union. [volume] (Sacramento [Calif.]) 1875-1891, 1880-12-27

Under the circumstances we regard 1t as
very fortunate that the President has APP
pointed special Commission of exper-
fenced army officers and business men, to
make separate investigation of the case,
and we are convinced that this Commits
sion will find it necessary to look very
closely into the representations of the Ponca
Chiefs. 1t appears that out of the sum of
$4,000 which the Government proposes
to expend in various ways upon the tribe,
a certain amount OF $4,000 is to be dis
tributed in cash to the heads of families.
It is animated that this money would
naturally come into the possession of the
Chiefs, and there are some people SO un-
charitable as to believe that these latter
may have been induced to favor the Gov
eminent proposition through their desire
to get hold of this money. Certainly the
position they now take is not rational one.
Why should they be willing to give up
property valued at 5000, 900 for Sl40, 600?
Why, indeed, should the Government try
to cozen them out of their heritage by
making them an offer so disproportionate
to their equities? Is it thus that the
United States ought to proceed when the
question before it is as to the redress of
notorious wrongs committed by its own
agents Does Secretary Schurz believe
that his administration is likely to be ex-
allied by obtaining such a victory in
finesse over handful of poor Indians
The Poncas have suffered wrong enough at
the hands of the Government. Surely it
is neither necessary nor seemly that
they should be subjected to an additional
wrong in the form of chicanery? 1t is
possible that the Ponca chiefs are accessi-
bic to bribery, and that the expectation OF
obtaining few thousand dollars may
have induced them to abandon their
claims. But assuredly the Govern
ment of a great nation ought not
to be concerned in any such sharp prac-
tice, and if the special Commission dis.
covers that the real wishes of the tribe
have not been truthfully stated, it will be
its duty to report against the proposed
compromise. In fact, in any case, the,
Poncas ought to be allowed to make the
best they can out of their claims. Even
if they are content to remain where they
are they are entitled to the full value of
the lands from which they were unlawfully
ousted. The Indian Bureau should not be
permitted to hoodwink and cheat them
under any pretext, and we trust that the
Commission will protect their rights to the
utmost, no matter who may wish to force
this iniquitous bargain to consummation.

SETTLE TIT.

No patriotic man desires to see any such dispute over the presidential election this year as arose in 1876. But if the Republicans win there is no doubt that the desperate Democrats will avail themselves of any pre- text for defeating the will of the people. This is indicated by the work now in progress in Indiana designed to manufacture excuses for overturning the Republican plurality of nearly 5000 and for contesting the seats of the eight Republican Congressmen. The Democrats will control both branches of Congress until the 4th of next March, and they will hesitate at nothing short of revolu- the government.
 The way to avoid trouble of this kind is to make General Garfeld's title to the presiden- cy so clear that there can be no excuse for questioning it, and every intelligent, patriot ic citizen should labor for Republican ma iority that will be decisive. As the Hartford Coura7t puts it: 'In working to secure a tect the national credit, the national curren- cy and the business interests of the whole country. Every man who belongs to Re- publican organization, every man who be- lieves that Republican success means the continuation of the present season of pros perity, should make himself special com mittee to secure doubtful voters, and to bring out to the last man every Republican vote; so that the voice of the northern people may be so loud and clear that the party of op- precision, tissue ballots and forgery, viii slink away in shame and disgrace 3

FACTS FOR FREE TRADERS

If protective tariff is such a bad thing for the country the free traders say it is it is strange that the protectionists have been able to so effectually conceal the evil results of their policy. The history of the country shows that under protection we have been most prosperous. A fair illustration of the benefits of protection is furnished by the ef- feet of the protective duties of the acts of 1924 and 1928, against which the southerners fought, just they are fighting against pro- lection today. See these comparisons:
 Price of government securities in 1921, 75 cents

FOR JUDGE OF PROBATE.

Our candidate for Judge of Probate, Earl 1iss P Arvine, is well fitted to perform the duties of the office for which he has been nominated. He is a graduate of the aca- demic department of Yale college, class of 1869, and also of the Yale Law School, class of 1871, and is a successful lawyer. His integrity is undisputed. He took the nom- ination for the sake of the party rather than his own, and should therefore receive the hearty support of the party. Give him the full Republican vote

 Allowing one able-bodied man to five of population in 1920, under the revenue tariff, and every twenty-six men had pauper to support. Under the protective tariff in 1880 only every sixty y-nine men had pauper on their hands.
 And the diminution of pauperism only tells half the story, because the men who were saved from pauperism became respectable and seh-supporting citizens, and, instead of remaining burden, became contributors to the expenses of carrying on the government of the town, State and nation
 Is there anything in these comparisons to encourage anybody to vote for free trade?

The funniest man in all the town He thought himself, did Mir. Brown. While at the club one night he saw A new silk tile upon the floor And winking to the crowd so slick He gave the hat gentle kick; And then another, just to show That wit from empty heads can flow. All caught the humor of the fun To kick that hat they vied each one There ne'er was such jolly crowd, And MT. Brown felt very proud, And when leave-takings came, broad smiles All wore while putting on their tiles Save MT. Brown, whose mirth was flown The hat, so crushed, was all his own.
