The Sioux Indian commission IS
nleeting with extraordinary success in
treating with the bands that occupy
the great reservation west of the Mis-
souri,, and if their efforts are promptly
seconded by the executive and Econ-
gress, at least 100000 acres will be
added to the public domain early next
season. They have already treated
with three Southern agencies, and with
the Indians at Standing Rock. Only
three more agencies have to be seen.
They found an uniform willingness
among the Indians to make the con-
cessions asked, and singular eager
ness existing among the tribes lately
wild, to profit by the advantages OF
of schools and to learn the arts of civ
ilization. If the recommendations of
the commissioners in the directions OF
aiding the Sioux to become farmers
and castle raisers are followed, long
step will have been taken towards rem
deriDg these troublesome wards of the
government self-supporting and cut
ting off the supplies of the Indian ring.

BY placing sugar on the free list, the
internal revenue commissioner estI-
mates that the people of the United
States would realize an aggregate saw
ing Of about $&5, 100000 per annum.
That is a good recommendation. All
the necessaries of life, and all articles
that enter into the daily use of the peo-
pie, except those that are legltimately
classed as luxuries, ought to be made
as cheap as possible to the consum er.
That is the rule which ought to guide
congress in the revision of the tariff
laws. 1t is founded on common Sc nse
and sonnd principles of political econ
omy.

SOME of the papers continue to
speak of Senator David Davis as ''Vice
President" He is no more vice presi-
dent than is any other senator. He is
president pro tenn. of the senate, ap-
pointed to that place by his brother
senators. The vice president of the
United States is elected by the people
ofthe states, and David Davis has not
been so elected, and there is not word
in the constitution or the laws which
recognizes the president pro tenn. of the
senate as the vice president under any
circumstances or contingency what
ever.
