No Excuse for Anarchists.

There is no excuse for anarchists in
this country. We have no tyrant
rulers our people are not Cypress
ed. We have no titled aristocracy.
The wealth possessed by few in
divlduals will be scattered at their
death. We all have an equal OPP
portunity to strive for it. 1t is the
blatant demagogues who preach an-
archy in a country like this and
they deserve to be summarily sup
pressed.

Boiled Shirts.
Gilhooly's Etchings. !


We would like to know what sort of an
idiot the man was who conceived the idea
Of the boiled shirt. We would like to
speak to him calmly and coolly and
point out to him where he was wrong.
The flannel shirt is sensible, useful, warm
and comfortable, but the boiled shirt is a
whi,ed sepulchre, and starched ex-
pensive ornament, of no use whatever
II is vanity, and taken in connection with
the modern collar, a vexation.
To begin with, the boiled shirt has no
shape or style about it /; there was some
tone about the rufiled shirts of our ances-
tors, but the shirt Of the present day looks
like FELLOWSHIP with drawing string at
one end Of it, and the bottom cut out of
the other end. Then there is an absurd
tab at the lower end Of the breast with
button hole in it. We have often
wondered what that meant. We don't
know whether i, was intended as an APP
propriate place for the owner to inscribe
his name, so that il anything should
happen to him suddenly the coroner
could tear it of and identity the man, or
whether il was merely ornamental, how
ever, in consequence Of the button-hole,
as the most careful research has failed to
find button to ill it. Then, look what
world Of contingencies have arisen be-
cause Of the creation Of the modern boiled
shirt. In our grandfather's days the
collar and cuffs were tackled on, and the
sleeves were made Of a length approx
mating to the length Of the arms Of the
wearer. Now we have to buy separate
collars and cuffs, and sleeve-buttons. and
gum elastic bands to hold our sleeves
up, (as they are generally about six
inches too long), and we have Chinese
laundryinen to pay. and all together il
looks like working for a dead horse to
wear boiled shirt. We do not want it
to be understood that we desire the
civilized word to retrograde and practice
barbaric customs, but our society days
are over; we care not what the world
may say, and we believe il would be
relief to several millions Of gentlemen in
this country If the boiled shirt was barred,
(some Of the aannel shirts are already
barredl. and the plain, go-as-you-please
unhleached muslin shirt Of our fore
fathers, with collars and cuffs attached,

The Indian Tribal Relation.
Boston Transcrp,

From the unpublished work of Mrs.
Hopkins upon :" Indian Life" now in the
press, we gather view Of the importance
Of their tribal relation which it is well to
consider. The present opinion of GEN
eral Sheridan is that the sooner it is
broken up, the sooner the Indians will
become civilized. But the nature of the
tribal relation is not we'll understood.
The chief Of the tribe is the father of it,
not the yrant. His will is not arbitrary.
il is advisory. 1t is sanctifed, as one
may say, by long usage, and points back
to the patriarchal relation. With the In
dams, the chief is the poorest man in the
tribe. His tent, which is also the coun-
Gil tent, is the resort Of the tribe in all
emergencies His hospitality is un-
bounded. In his present poverty he
often goes without food himself because
his guests, whether Of the tribe or stran-
gers, must be serv~d first. Would il not
be best to try n. ~.sect of Justice and
mercy, 50 long withheld by our govern
ment and by society from the hunted and
outraged Indian, before breaking up that
family relation which is the strongest in
fluence over them? Mrs. Hopkins thinks
they could hold their lands in severai,v
on the same reservation, and, while en-
loying all the immunity from the neigh
oorhood and encroachment Of the whites,
which is the thing they dread THAT is. If
the nights OF citizenship go with that dis
tribution Of landl ther social life can con-
tinue the same, with all It's pleasures and
advantages The Indian is the most So
cable Of human beings in his own home,
though stern and reserved to the white
men Who are his natural enemies and not
his brothers, as the good old chief
Tuebec called them.
Lei US Try justice and mercy, and let US
take counsel with the Indian, and not
rule him like tyrant as we have done.
The Piute, at least, is competent to Judge
Of his own Affairs. His whole life IS one
OF mutual counsel with his fellows, and
this has been the education that has pre-
served his individuality and many rare
virtues. Do not any longer cali him a
barbarian Wherever he is 50 il is his
white brothers who have made him
so. He has never been guilty of any
cruelty or asrocity that has not been prac-
ticed by the professors Of Christianity. as
In the Dutch wars and Other mutual per-
secutions OF Christian sects. He is an
exceptionally noble being, instead of a
degraded one. No native can be degraded
that has preserved the virtues Of truth
and chastity. We may well veil our faces
before him, and it IS cheering in the
midst OF our corruption to turn to a race
that has preserved its integrity through
all trials. We shah be all the better for
taking It into the ranks Of citizenship.

THIS suit grows out OF the fact that since 1856 the

created riparian land, and whether purchaser
IN 1856 held his title to land up to the line OF the

by the recession OF the ocean. The dispute cul-
minated IN the great ejectment suit between the
