THE REPUBLICAN newspapers do
not welcome the election of Austin
F. Pike as United States Senator
from New Hampshire with that
degree of enthusiasm which might
be expected, considering the long
contest and the probability Of the
present Legislature failing to make
choice. Pike served in the Forty
third Congress, but though nomin-
ated for the Forty-fourth was de-
feated. The papers represent him
as "goodish sort of man, but he
lacks force of character and is not
noted for the possession of extraor-
binary ability. He will prove a
poor stick indeed if he retires with a
worse showing than his predecessor
has made. Rollins was put into the
Senate as the guardian and attorney
for the Union Pacific railway, and
he was so Inefficient as a Legislator
that he could not even serve his
masters to any purpose. 1t is prob |
able that Senator Pike is not a |
Conkling, nor an Edmunds. but if |
he cannot hold his own with Lap |
ham and a dozen or more Senators
who might be mentioned, he must
be pretty snide kind of Senator.

different policy in the treatment of
the Indians, better results may be
looked for. First, let the Indian
understand that he is a human
being, capable of evolution and de-
velopmenU; then make him a re-
sponsible person, applauding and
encouraging him for his good actions
and furnishing him for his mis-
deeds; and as soon as it can be done
throw him upon his own resources
for maintenance, government
standing between him and unprin-
cipled sharpers who will take
advantage of the Eed man
to rob and cheat him.
In order to Institute this policy it
might first be necessary to execute
a number of agents and contractors
whose chief aim or purpose seems
to be to keep the Indians in their
present degraded and dependent
condition, SO as the easier to incite
them to the Preparation Of outrages
against the whites. There is money
for some people both in feeding and
fighting the Indians. These are the
people that the government must
work against when it institutes its
new policy.

Early Notions of Nature

In all religions there are two great
omnipreSent relations-of man To
nature, to God, and of man to man,
One IS the worship side, the other
the moral side. Combining ourselves
to the relation of man to nature.
what has the study Of early Aryan
myths shown to be mans first CON
ceptl0n Of the nature around him ?
The HindOos have probably wan
dered less over the face of the earth.
and suffered less, than ary other
Aryan people. Their early religious
records are consequently the clear.
est and the best preserved. From
Ghese 1t appears that the
earliest religion was what
IS now called animisn This is.
as you choose, the soul, ghost, or
spirit theory of nature; and is sun
posed to have had its source in
dreams, the impalpabIe nature of
whose visions suggested the pres

OF soul could explain dreams ii

plain such things in himself as man

by the idea of q soul in every man.
From this it is but short step 10

others; and go on through all
nature. Wherever there is some
thing inexplainable, there IS a mys-
FERROUS spirit.
This is the earliest and simplest
anlmism. Soon, however, UNEQUAL
forces of nature suggest UNEQUAL
spirits behind and IN them, and
gradually great and small spirits

Besides the spirits In living bodies
and In nature, are the souls released
by death, but imagined still to wan

have some influence on living men,
especially in controlling the fate of
their bodily descendants. From
this conception arose ancestral wor-

might thus be kindly disposed to-

THE LIEN LAW.

At the coming session of the
Legislature the mechanics and labor.
ers should make it their business to
secure, if possible, the passage of a
good lien Law. There is a lien law
at present in the books, but it does
not afford all the protection that is
needed to either the contractor or
the laborer. We have a case in mind
where there is a question as to the
application Of the law for the benefit
of the workman. a company pur-
chased mining property, and imme-
diately put men at work developing
the same, erecting furnaces, putting
up machinery, etc. The company
failed, and the contractors and
laborers were not paid. AS amatter
of course, all who worked for it ex-
pected the property would be held
for their just claims; but it trans
pires that the failing corporation
did not own the mine and works
absolutely, having defaulted in the
payments for the same. The agree
ment between the original sellers
and the company was that
the latter failing to pay for the
property as stipulated, the same
should revert to the first Wners
together with all improvements
that had been made by the COM
pany, the original sellers to be held
exempt from all debts and charges
incurred by the failing purchasers.
II this agreement shall be carried
out the unpaid contractors and
lab0rerS must suffer to the extent
of many thousands of dollars. 1t is
true, that should the terms of the
sale not be carried into effect and !
the property return to the first own
ers with the debts and obligations
upon them, the sellers
would be put to expense that they |
did not incur and for which they
might claim they received no ade-
quate value. But if the property
cannot be held for the wages of the
worknen where are they to look for |
pay? The best that can be said is
that the company has been guilty of
a fraud; and the question arises,
Who should be made to suffer for it
The laborers could not have known
the peculiar terms of the pretended
purchase and sale of the mine; and
if they had been advised of the
facts would they not have gone
ahead in the confident belief that
their labor was worth its price and
hat the property would be held
responsible for the pay ? The present
len law seeks the protection of the
Mechanic and laborer, and it NAV
5e deemed sufficient by the courts,
cut 1t Is just as well to have sta
ute that csnnot give rise to doubt

noted. Workmen are not presumed

CHARLES E. Stage, one Of the
striking telegraph operators at
Elmira, N. Y, went back to work
last week. He said he stood by the
boys as long as he could without
drawing upon the resources invested
in the little home that sheltered his
wife and children, and that was a
sacrifice he could not make upon
the uncertainty of being out of
employment. 1t is the financial
question that will break the strike,
the poor operators having less
than the Western Union.
and therefore being unable to hold
out as long as the company.

The Banner State.

 It is generally conceded by the
 thousands ot visitors who pass and repass through this department that Arkansas is the Banner State' in many particulars. Tie space allot- sd 10 Arkansas is in the north side of the building. and Is 190 feet long
 and twenty feet wide. The floral department and newspaper exchange occupy the cast end of the space.
 Here selection of the flowers from the ladies of Arkansas are placed. Newspapers from most every connty in the state are for free distribution. Specially prepared articles are pub lished in each paper, at the sugges. tion of Messrs Hamilton < Hays, of the Arkansas press department. 1 These articles bring out the natural
 resources of it's county of fruits, cot ton gram minerals, water and by this means the state in general and every county in particular are thor oughly advertised which will doubt less induce large immigration to the state. Thls plan of circulating free literature is unique and con- plete. Much credit is due to these gentlemen for their enterprise. The selection of fruits, berries, vegeta- bles and many articles of growth is largely due to Mir Wallace, of Ozark. His long experlnee Tn showing of the virtues of his state has per fected that gentleman in his knowl- edge of every resource of Arkansas. His genial manner and his eloquence are equal to the songs of the sirens.
 Major Downle stands at the .oun- tain of Eureka water, ready to dis pense to suffering humanity the ''all- cure of the west. Ladies need not fear to approach him, for he only looks grave. The timber display shows the great variety of the build- ing material that young state pos. sesses. Prof. Conrad, from the Ar kansas Industrial university at Fay ettevill, has complete cabinet Of geological specimens, silver, copper, zinc, manganese and iron in almost every shape. The famous Hot Springs whetstones deserve special notice. Fire brick clay and marble from Polk county are constantly ad- mired. In this department are found perfect fern in the carboniieraceous and sub carbonife:aceous age, to- getller with a full line of exhibits belonging to the prehistoric.
