THE MAINE MIDDLE.

There is little new to record il the Maine
situation this morning. Both the legal and
the rump legislatures were in session for a
short time, but in neither was any business
transacted. The Republicans have adjourned
till Saturday to await the opinion of the su-
preme judicial court as to the legality of
their existence as legislative body. They
no doubt feel secure in the position they
have assumed, as the court has already dem
orstrated its capacity for rendering just
such opinions as may be required to suit any
partisan emergency. We take it that there
is but little doubt of the direction the court
will take. The Republicans will be sustained
in whatever assumption they may make.
The opinion of the court, however, will
not settle the controversy. There is q
power superior to that tribunal. The peo-
pie, backed by the constitution and the
laws, will insist that the legislature organic
ed in conformity to law shall be recognized
and any action it may take in opposition to
the bribers and revolutionists will be sus-
tanned at any cost. The party of political
morality represented by the fusionists must
show no faltering, but stand boldly forth,
asserting the rights of the people as against
the rebels who would suhvert the govern
ment, and maintaining those rights at all
hazards.

THE Old FLAG,

Members of Congress from Chicago have
sport for the entire country. Carter Hsrri-
son, with his eagle and the marine band,
kept Congress and the country on broad
grin for years; Barney Caulfeld's assump-
tions of especial dignity by reason of his
origin in ''the Blue Grass regions of Kahn
lucky, sah,' provoked smile that was fire.
quently audible across the continent, while
the pugnacity of Lorenz Brentano, evid enced
bv his efforts to bulldoze the House, made
him the prime butt of ridicule. II seems
that the sceptre is not to be allowed to de-
part from Chicago. At the last election one
Hiram Barber, Jr., was chosen as the Repre-
sentative of the northern third part of the
city. He is gentleman of fine education
and good legal ability, may be called good
looking, is tall, with slouchy gait, and hair
that bsbltually stands on end. He is not
much of wag, and whatever pleasantries he
may indulge in are purely unconscious-the
result, we suppose, of mental absorption.

the world for Congressman to follow-has
Incorporated it in bill which he introduced
in the House on Wednesday with becoming
gravity. In the Congressional report it is
mentioned as ga bill to prevent the use of
the United States flag for advertising pur-

1t is very evident that there is more SEN
timent than sense in Mr.. Barber's mental
composition. He has, no doubt, felt his
reverence for the stars and stripes frequently
outraged, upon picking up diminutive edi-
ton of that article to find emblazoned upon
its sacred folds an emblem advising him to
Drink only Rottem's Sour Mash," or to
"Take Mi1um's Cathartic," or an Injunction
to "Wear Blowhard's Liver Pad"
Or, it is possible that his soul
was particularly narrowed during
the progress of the last campaign at seeing
numerous flags around the polls enjoining
voters to support Lambert Tree for Con-
gress. 1t is also possible that the flag has
been degraded BY being printed on the backs

THE UTE FIaSCO.

A special dispatch to Chicago paper an
nounces change of programme on the part
of the interior department concerning the
treatment of the Ute Indians. The dis
patches from Commissioners Hatch and
Adams and the assurances from the depart
ment at Washington have created the i'm
preston in tie public mind that Chief Ouray
was able to surrender the murderers of
Agent Meeker and others, and that the sur
render would be made in due time. 1t is
now announced, however, that Ouray never
had that power, and furthermore that he
never made such promises. The Indians
guilty of that atrocity will not give them
selves up, but will prefer death on the battle
field to death on the scaffold,
The department, it is announced, has de-
termined to turn the matter of the punish
ment of these miscreants over to Ouray. Of
course that chief is ready with promises and
expedients, and declares his intention of
dealing with them under the tribal laws of
his nation, which permits the hunting down
of Indians guilty of murder, and their
slaughter on sight. The department seems
to have overlooked the fact that in Indian
law the killing of whites is not regarded
az murder, but rather as an indication of the
proves and bravery of the perpetrators of
the offense. Ouray will therefore be unable
TO keep the pledges he is now making 80
glibly.
1t is evident to even the most obtuse that
the policy of the department in dealing with
the Utes has been miserable failure. The
murderers of Agent Meeker and the per-
petrators of the nameless outrages upon the
female prisoners captured at the agency
will never be surrendered to the
authorities, and will therefore 60 un-
punished. The boosted peace policy
has besn fraud, as the GLOBE predicted it
would be, and the wrongs committed will

women held in bondage worse than death,
would have been to wage relentless warfare
against the savages. By such means salu-
tary lesson might have been taught the Utes
and all other tribes. But the opportune mo-
ment has passed away, and whatever action
may be taken, there can be but Indifferent
results. The great fact will stand forth with
prominence that the government was impo-
tent in an emergency that required the most
energetic action, and the news will be her
aided from one end of savagedom to the
other that any atrocity, no matter how great,
| will be condoned rather than run the risk of
| a conflict with the Indian tribes. The re-
suit of the long continued negotiations has
been to inspire every savage in the land
and good many civilized persons as we'll
| with q profound contempt for the govern
ment that permits its authority to be thus
spit upon. AS a controller of the Indians
MIR. Schurz has proved himself a contempti-
bic failure, and the wisest thing he could do
under the circumstances would be to send in
his resignation.

of those implements of the devil known as
playing cards, and thus given over to igno-
BILE purposes.
That the rest of the American people
have not been as deeply shocked as MIR.
Barber at these manifest indignities heaped
upon the national flag is proof of that gen.
tleman's superior aesthetic nature. The
Americans as rule have very little rover
ence. When they achieve a degree of pa
triotsm calling for unusual demonstrations,
they usually shout for the old flag and al
appropriation, but Mr.. Barber has done bet
ter by starting "boom'' for the old flag
without an advertisement. Mr.. Barber is
well-meaning young man, but we are sure
he cannot be aware how many other hearts
will ache if his bill becomes a law. The
men who peddle stomach bitters, liver
pills, kidney panaceas and all sorts of lotions
and drink will find one of their most eff
Gent aids in the sale of their goods disbarred
from serving them. The old flag will no
longer be the symbol of remedy for the
pains of dyspepsia or the terrors of the govt.
1t will be, to the majority of mankind, SIM
ply a meaningless piece of bunting-the
stars symbolizing nothing in particular and
the stripes the agonies of some disease that
has remained gnawing at the vitals for want
otthe potency of some nostrum, the merits
of which are now proclaimed by its means.
We trust that when Mr.. Barber dies he will
be encofined with the American Aag-sans
advertisement wrapped about dis inani-
mate form, and thus, perhaps, he may rest
in peace.

Apv1oEs from the South represent that
large numbers of the negroes who emigrated
to Kansas last Summer, are returning dis
gusted with their experiment. They state
that there is little encouragement for those
who wish to earn a living in that State, as
nearly all occupations are closed to them. A
large proportion of those who remain in
Kansas are either wholly or partly dependent
upon charity for subsistence, and would
gladly return to their southern homes if they
had the means of transportation. 1t is very
apparent that Kansas is not a land flowing
with milk and honey.

A Neat Little Speculation for Bank

NEW YORK, Jan. 13.-The Eyening Post says
on inquiry we find the metropolitan Nation
al bank of this city which had on deposit in
Washington 80, 450, 900 of United States per
cent. bonds to secure 81, 2O5. 900 of note circu-
lation, has taken up the bonds and for time
given up its note circulation. The operation
is merely a business one as the bank clears a
profit by it of over $4,000. The hank has a
capital of 100000. President Sevey gives it
as his opinion that if congress would reduce
the tax on note circulation one-half, it now he
ing one per cent, the banks generally would
freely take bonds bearing 3-65 per cent, and
would largely increase their circulation. and
that all restrictions removed the Metropolitan
alone would take q, GOO, 900 Of such bonds.

refrain from entering into the discussion
of our relations with the grand lodge of Dako-

the committee as indicated, who will advise

grand lodge disclaims any intention to in any
way encroach upon the jurisdiction of the
grand lodge of Dakota. Just in that degree that
we should resist encroachments upon our own
rights and dignity, SO would we refrain from
tresspassing upon those of others. The claim
that we have violated this principle is in my
judgment assumption merely, and not war
ranted by the facts. Yet, if it be not conceded
that there Is a difference of opinion involved
which will admit of dissention, an adjustment
may not be reached. This must be conceded then
with the true spirit of fraternity to guide US,
desire to reach conclusions, consistent with
