The Indians.

The fact cannot be denied that the
policy Of the Government in dealing
with the Indian question has been,
as Il general thing, highly unsatstac-
tory to that class of people most
directly Interested, those living on
the frontiers, whose safety has been
continually Imperilied by the saw
agery Of the tribes who were sup
ported by he Government This
policy has been Of the tcmporizing
sort, shaped rather to meet the emer-
gcncies Of the hour than to settle the
underlying questions for all time.
President Hayes, who views every
thing from high moral, and it is
feared sometimes from an altogether
impracticable standpoint, now APP
pears 10 have strong faith in the civ
llizrng processes and agencies en-.
pIoy ed at IL few points among these
'sons of the Forest There are be-
tween 250,000 and 100000 Indians
within the limits OF the United
States, exclusive of those in Alaska.
Of these less than one in ten is pay
ing amy attention to civilized pur-
suits, while all the others are to all
lntents and purposes rs savage ana
more degraded than were their an
cestors when the Mayfower first
touched Pilgrims rock. And OF
those who are in the schools pro.
vided for them, one in ten will per.
haps remain among the whites after
their school years are complete and
become Il sort of hanger-on of civil
cation, while the other nine will 90
back to their people and in some de.
gree relapse into the habits and Gus
toms Of their people. This may be
called the uncharitable view, but it
is fortified by the history of the
country. The future of the Indians
us indicated by their past, is to
gradually fade away before the ad-
vancing light of civilization and TO
be ultimately eXtinguished instead of
becoming II partaker of enlightened
citizenship. After three or four
generations OF them had been kept
under subsection and trained in
schools, the result might be more
encouraging, but the Indians OF this
country are too few to last through
the civilizing process which it would
require to bring them up to level
with our own people. Some years
ago Il Western speaker, discussing
the two problems Of Mormonism and
the Indian question, said: 81 wish
every (adjective) Mormon would
shoot Il (adjective) Indian, and get
hung for it. That's the best prac-
tical solution | can find This solu-
ton, however, is too heroic for the
present condition of the public mind
ard the men with good hearts like
President Hayes, are trying to find q
milder way OF converting the Nor
mons and civilizng the Indians. Can
they find il? 1t is difficult to tell
how.

The German Language seems to IL
treated IA Ia mothor-in-lar by the Board
of Public Schools in Denver. The
CoiOroi0 Jou9idi writo the following
in relation thereto: We Ill give our
readers to-day little ap:anation how
the German language is taught and
treated, or rather malreated, in onr
public schools. In tie Third Ward
school there teaches young school
marin who, for an incrsae of her salary
of 50 per annum. teaches also German
to the intinit pleasure of the little Ger
man fellows who visit that school. The
young lady does not inow anything
about the German Language herself, bat
she takes occasional lessons in
that language, and whatever
knowledge she acquires by them
she attempts to instill into the crani-
ums of her pupils on thu following day.
That she makes mistakes and very ride
ulous ones at that, every one will at once
perceive. For instance, breakfast she
translates with "Frssticl' (Fruhstueckl ,
pork" stands for "sMneiieiss, and
beef" for "reindfleiss. That the little
German urchins who lave to witness
these attempts at jaw breaking grow ex-
tremely hilarious is naural; and that
the American scholars take it in as cor
rect and all right is also natural, but
very much to he regretted. This system
of teaching German should at once be
abolished. Nothing will sooner destroy
the respect of the pupils OF public
schools than a teacher becoming the
laughing stock of the scholars.

expressly for melting the iron, and seven

A Child, Drowned.

This morning several children were
playing near the river above the Reduc-
ton Works. They missed one of their
number, the two-year-old boy of Adam
Adrian, who works for George Berrott,
but could not find him. Mentime a
Chinaman saw the child floating down
the river, buoyed up by it's clothing,
and ran to the City Brewery, short
distance below the mill, and gave the
alarm. The brewer, John Flnmer.
jumped into the river, but had all he
could do to keep himself aaoat, and
Charley Leush, who is an expert swim
mer, went in and brought out the life

was called to the scene, bnt his efforts
to resusitate the boy proved unavailing.

A Good Thing.

German Syrup is the special prescrip-

German physician, and is acknowledged
to be one Of the most fortunate discov-
cries in. medicine. 1t quickly cures
coughs, colds, and all lung troubles of
the severest nature, removing, as it
does, the cause Of the Affection and
leaving the parts in strong and
healthy condition. It is not all. expert
mental medicine, but has stood the test
of years, giving satisfaction in every
case, which its rapidly increasing sale
every season confirms Two million
bottles sold annually. Beware of med
icines of similar names, lately intro
duced. BoscHEE's GERMAN SYRUP was
introduced in the United States in
1868, and is now sold in every town
and village in the civilized world.
Three doses will relieve any ordinary
cough. Price, IS cents. Sample bot
