The Sacred Fire of the Pueblos.
St. Louis Globe-Democrat

The Pueblos claim that their MONTE
yuma was born through the immacu-
late conception of an Indian maiden of
their own tribe in the village of Pecos,
about thirty-6ve miles distant from
this city. While youth he did not
exhibit any extraordinary qualities, but
upon reaching manhood's estate show
ed himself to be great hunter and
possessed of supernatural powers At
ter dwelling with the tribe for a long
period and performing many miracu-
lous deeds, he departed, going south
ward. On the eve of his Journey he is
reported to have lighted sacred fire,
which he told his people to keep burn
ing until his return. Although this
was long centuries ago, it is said that
the Indians have scrupulously obeyed
the injunction and have never allowed
the fire to die out. They have contin-
uously. through successive generations,
kept the slumbering embers aglow. At
least this is their story, and it is largely
believed, especially by those who have
seen tie fire glimmering in their old
adobe temple.
In 1887 the pueblo, or town, of Pecos
was sold. It was on a. Spanish grant,
and at that period the Indians removed
the sacred fire with great care to Taos,
where it is still burning and viewed with
reyerential awe. Some of the Indians
of the present day have so much conf
dence in the return of Montezuma that
they get out upon their house tops
every morning with the rising of the
sun and look anxiously into the far dis
tance Of his coming. Even though
many of the Pueblo Indians have out
wardly embraced the Christian reli-
gion, yet they maintain their faith in
Montezuma, whom they regard as their
saviour or sove, eign. They are do
cile and industrious people, who live a
pastoral life. AS communities they
are far more prosperous and live far
better than the majority of their pa-
tives

cretion. You will make known to the
committee that this cargo of provisions

wants of the suffering people in Ireland,
whose condition has aroused extra

Congress, in obedience to this sympa-

Constellation for that purpose. ] am
sure it will be more agreeable duty to
you to take her without her guns, upon

than to command her upon a warlike
expedition. Your visit will ena-
BILE the people of Ireland to
realize that peace hath her victories no
less renowned than war and that in
this age these victories do more to
create amicable relations between
people of different nationalities and to
draw them closer together than the

to you, you will return to New York

ment. Very Respectfully,

False Professions.

The Radical press appears quite
confident that the party will nomis
nate to the Presidency Gan earnest
and faithful defender of hard mon
ey principles" The indications now
are that the Republicans will nomi-
nate Ulysses S. Grant whose finan
cial principles are not determined
by his own knowledge or convic-
tions, but by what his trusty adj
visers tell him. That the party as
party is "earnest and faithful" in its
devotion to the doctrine that green
backs must be retired, cannot be
conceded, since it is not the fact; and
inasmuch as that doctrine is the
hinge on which fidelity to 'shard
money principles at present turns,
it follows that the confidence - the
Radicals is far from being we'll
founded. The Republicans in the
United States Senate have given
signal proof of their own misgiy-
ings as to the policy of assuming
that the party is unanimous in its
adhesion to hard money views.
A majority of the Republican
members of the Finance Committee
voted against Mr.. Bayard's resolu.
tion withdrawing the legal tender
quality of greenbacks, and when the
resolution came up for debate, the
boosted champions of an honest
currency entered into a cowardly
compact to abstain from participant
ing in the discussion.
Certainly this was not the action
to be expected from men who claim
to be ''earnest and faithful in the
cause of hard money. On the con.
trary, it proves that they cared
nothing at all about it, and were
only solicitous to avoid giving Of
Tense to the inffationists, who con.
stitute numerous and powerful ele-
ment of the Republican party.
Ever since soft money asinvad-
ed our politics Republicans have
been as conspicuous in advocating
them as Democrats. 1t is prepos-
ferrous, in view of this familiar fact,
for partisan oracles to contend that
the virus of the so-called heresy has
attacked the members of any politi-
cal organization exclusively.
If there is special merit in up.
holding the faith that the Federal
Government has no Constitutional
power to make paper representatives
OF a debt of legal tender, that merit
belongs to the Democratic party,
and when Republicans appropriate
this doctrine and seek to use il for
their own purposes, they are simply
stealing Democratic thunder.
