ANOTHER Indian war is looming up
in the Western horizon. This time
trouble is anticipated with the Utes
when the attempt is made TO remove
them according to the provisions of the
recent treaty. The weather is warm
and game plenty enough for them to
live without government rations, and
they will no doubt embrace the first op.
oortuni;y which presents itself to test
the new rifles, ammunition and horses
furnished by the Department on the
troops and white settlers who may be
found in their vicinity. General PoPK
is placing the troops in the most availa-
bile positions in case OF an emergency
and periecting the telegraph communi-
cation with the Ute country, and it is
to be hoped that arrangements will he
completed in time to promptly suppress
any outbreak which may occur before
the lives of innocent men. women and
children shall be sacrificed.

A WASHINGTON special to the New

CoSSLISG's purpose in rendering his res

sudden pique, nor is be sulking. On
the contrary the step was taken after
mature elaboration in full view of all

The theory which runs through free-trade
books and is the plaintive cry OF free-trade
speakers, namely, that protective duty upon
any article increases it's cost to the consumer
to the full extent OF the duty, has received
hard knock IN the experience OF the American
people WITH quinine. In 1879 the duty was TAX
en- off and the manufacture of the highest
grade OF quinlne was strangled In this coun-
try About 100000 ounces are consumed
each year, and the selling price here at whole
sale was $3.50 per ounce. Now we are sup
piled by European makers, and the wholesale
price Is 81 80 per ounce. Our free-traders
have crushed an industry which employed capi-
.sl, science and labor, and the people have to
use an article not so reliable as that manutac
tured at home, and pay higher price for it.
All this has come about through the vhms and
caprices of foolish theorists and visionary poll
ticans. Let the American market be insured
for q series OF years. and American capital,
labor, and enterprise have shown that on al
most every product, from steel rails TO sewing
silb, the prices are brought down by home COM
petition below what foreigners would supply
tho same article for. Destroy the market for
the products OF our own industry, and multi
titudes must stand idle, while consumers have
to pay just what foreigners Misunderstanding

At tue unwilling Of the bronze statue OF
Admiral Farragut, at Washington, on Monday

"FEI Low CITIZENS: 1t is a singular province
OF art to break down the limitations which sep
arate generations Of men from each other, and
TO allow those OF past generations to be COM
rades and associates Of those now living. This
capital Is silently being filed up with heroes OF
other tmes. Men of three wars have taken
their places in silent eloquence as guardians
and guards OF the nation they loved so well,
and as the years pass on, these squares ana
pubic places will be rendered more and more
popuous; more and more eloquent by the
presence Of dead heroes OF other days. From
all quarters OF the country, from ali genera
tons OF its life, from all portions OF it's ser
vice, these heroes come by the ministry and
mystery Of art to take their places and stand
as permanent guardians OF our nations glory.
To-day We come to hail this hero, who
comes from the sea-down from the shrouds
OF his flag ship, wreathed with the smoke and
glory Of vctory-bnnging sixty years Of ma
tionsl life and honor, to take his place as an
honored compatrlot and perpetual guardian Of
his nations glory. In the name Of the nation,
L accept this noble statue, and his country will
guard it as he guarded his country" Tap
