of the sort Of production which year

INDIAN TROUBLES.
Suggestions Made TO Pass a Law ProhIb.
iting the Furnishing ofMunition
TO the Indians.
WASHINGTON. Oct. 27.

WASHINGTON. Oct. %.
Hiram Price, commander of Indian affairs
has made his annual report TO the Secretary
of the Interior He notes the increase in the
number of Indians living by cultivation of
the soil, and Of children at industrial and
other schools. The commander thinks that in
the near future, with the aid of schools now
carried on, the Indian will be able to care for
himself and will become a help to the gov
ernment. The cost of clothing and feeding
the Indians is stated to be 81 per capita a
year, while the government expends $1,000
per annum for each soldier, whose chief busi-
ness is to preserve peace on the frontier,
More liberal appropriations are recommended
for the pay of Indian police. Additional to
farmers and court officers: referring to the
reported sutferings from want of food among
Indians at the extreme northern agencies,
Price says, the trouble was one entirely due
to Congress. First, by delay in making ap-
proprations; second, by appropriating made
quate sums. Owing to the absence of game,
and their inability to support themselves by
agriculture, the Piegsns and Blackfeet will
be dependent upon the government for food
for several years to come. The commander
suggests the passage of a law forbidding the
sale of arms and ammunition to Indians, and
advises that the penalty for violation of the
law, and regulating the sale of liquor to
them be increased.

enthusiastic demonstration with which the
people honored me on the occasian of my
visit to Rochester"
At Hornellsville there was a very large and
enthusiastic crowd. Blaine discussed at some
length the relations of the Southern question
to the tariff.
AT Canestoe, Addison and Corning brief
stops were made and at each place Blaine
| spoke very briefly
II was about o'clock when the train
reached Elmira Before reaching the depot
be left the train and drove TO the house OF
NJ. J. F. D. Slee. whose guest he is in
Elmira. After supper he came down 10 the
stand facing the public park. The park and
adjacent streets were crowded, indeed the
whole city seemed TO be so. When Blaine ap
peared he was received with tumultous cheer
ing. He had come TO the stand to review the
torchlight procession, but the people demand
ed speech and in response he again spoke
of the relations between the solid South and
the tariff question.
In the course of his remarks he said the
approaching election in the South will ex-
hibit most extraordinary spectacle for the
republic to witness. The colored voters of
the Southern States number almost a million.
They are a very large element in every one
of the eleven States of the late conteder-
acy, and in four of them-South Carolina.
Alabama. Wisconsin aud LOuisiana-they
constitute the absolute majority of the peo-
pie. They are with practical unanimity the
supporters of the republican party, yet so
utterly is their freedom of suffrage destroyed
that no one expects these States or any of
them to be carried by the republican party
and this, despite the fact thst the colored
majority is sustained by not an inconsidera-
bile Of tho yrh hita n aanb nf
the States named. it is not to be forgotten in
this connection that by the last census the
Southern States acquired 81 electoral
votes for president and vice president by
reason of their colored population and | sub
init that II Is rather calling TO the northern
feeling and pride that these 81 votes were
apportioned to the south by reason of col
ored population, should be. absolutely con-
trolled by the white people and the negro,
notwithstanding his vast numerical strength,
be left unrepresented in the electoral college.
proposition of the democratic party of the
nation is to have New York join this alliance
and taking advantage of this wholesale crime
against free suffrage in the south 10 seize the
government of the United States by viola
tion of the plainest rights of citi-
zenship. Crime against suffrage is
crime against the Republic. Cheers ]
never can believe that the voice of New
York will be pronounced in favor of so gross
peryersion of constitutional guarantees; so
gross violation of personal rights as the
Southern elections have come to be. The ac-
complishment of the scheme OF the democratic
party would be the most paIpable and often
sive installation of the minority over the ma
jority ever attempted and it can be achieved
| only by crime in which l believe New York
can never DE made to participate. [Cheers !

FROM CHINA.
Chinese Soldiers Destroy French Priests
hOmes-EngIish Missions Attacked.


SAN Francisco, Oct 81.
Steamer Arabic which arrived here yester-
day, brought Hong Kong advices to Oct. lst.
The Swatow correspondent of the Annoy Ga
zette, under date of September 22nd, writes
that the rumor that the Catholic priests under
French protection, were, last week. ordered
TO leave by Chinese authorities. When those
at Chro Ehou Flu about twenty miles north of
Swatow had left the place, the Chinese sol
diers went to their houses and DESTROYED
everything they could find. 1t is said that
the soldiers criminally assaulted a number of
female converts. At Kite Yung the mob de-
stroyed not only the Roman Catholic places
of worship, but also those belonging to the
English Presbyterian and other missions.
The Wesleyan chapel at Chan Tsung, large
trading mart, few hours journey from Can
ton, was DESTROYED by the mob on September
lith.
Yokhama advices state that there is no
truth in the report that the japanese govern
ment has been negotiating with China
for securing the possession of Loo Choo Is.
