II would be hard to suggest many better uses
for half million dollars than to put II ih'o
schools for the Indians. 1t is cheaper not TO
say moro Christian. to educate an Indian than
1t is to fight him. The responsibility Tor these
iliterates rests directly upon the National Gov
ernment, which can hardly be said with strict
truth of the illiterates Of the South-the biacks'
The question of education is q serious one In
both cases. But In the case Of the Indian the
Government has already promised them educa-
ton, and Congress should SEQ to it that this
promise is kept The Indians want schools as
well as need them. Their children crowd into
the schools. Yet at Rosebud Agency. among
the Sioux, with 5000 Indians, there are no
schools whatever. The entire sum due these
tribes could, IL appropriated. be used for manual
labor schools, farm implements, etc. The re-
quest of the Secretary Of the Interior was GER
tainly modest enough as beginning Ihe
Government does not owe the Indian a living
perhaps, but it owes him the chance to make
one. And it ought to pay all its debts-even to
Indians.

DFBT 10 BE PAID.

The Indian Appropriation bill as reported to
the House Is $4,000 below the bill of last
year. and SO, 1876, 900 less than the estimates of
the Secretary of the Interior. Evidently the
committee is not disposed, as the Indian Rights
Association of Philadelphia reminds us, to heed
the Secretary's suggestion that the Government
pay some of the debts it owes to the Indians. One
appropriation alluded TO by him in his annual
report would be of great service to the cause of
Indian education, and yet would simply be the
beginning of the discharge of obligations "as
sacred as the public debt" as the Secretary
truly SAYS. Congress Ia full of statesmen who
are ready at any time to vote away millions for
public buildings. and contains some who are
really hoarse with bowling for general scatter
ing of the surplus. 1t would be interesting to
see how these gentlemen would vote upon q
proposition to pay part of plain debt.
The Government owes more than three and q
half millions of dollars to the Apaches, Kiowas,
Comanches of the Indian Territory, Bannocls,
Cheyennes, Arapahoes, Crows, ShOsh0nes,
Sioux and Utes, and yet these tribes are as far
from getting the money or its equivalent as II
the United States was like Mississippi-a re-
pudiating Government. These tribes, in
treaties made about sixteen years ago, ceding
certain valuable lands, were promised by the
Government school-house and teacher for
every thirty children, for terms varying from
ten to thirty years These provisions have
never been properly carried into effect
Secretary Teller, in making up his annual re-
port, cast up the accounts, and found that the
Government ought to have expended under this
provision 50, 75O, 900 more than it had DONE In
other words, it was quite as clearly in debt to
them for this amount as to one of its bond
holders for the amount of his bonds. He pro-
posed, as beginning toward the payment of
this debt, that Congress should appropriate half
a million dollars for building the school houses
and supplying one years schooling.

THE noe IT'S RITTER REPORT

The State Senate Committee on Public
Health has made report upon the bogus but
ter business which strongly reinfOrces the COM
mittee's bill providing for the prohibition of
the manufacture of this article 1t is shown
that butterine, oleOmargerine and all the vari-
Ous compounds made to initiate butter are made
of oils and fats of all degrees and conditions OF
nastiness. and that the stuff Is invariably sold
for butter. The main defence OF the manufac-
turers has been the free purchase of the bogus
butter by boarding houses, hotels and restau-
rants but it is evident this only shows that a
great many people who purvey food for the
public are willing to defraud their customers in
the same way that the venders of the sham but
ter do. A challenge to produce single family
that consumed bogus butter knowingly was de-
clined and this is significant. The so-called
artificial butter has now had fair trial, and it
is condemned on every count of the indictment.
It has been proved that it Is made of materials
which, if not positively unwholesome, are re-
pulsive. have never been used as food and may
easily be poisonous. 1t has also been shown
that chemicals are used in the process which
are certainly poisonous, and cases have been
cited in which persons engaged in the manufac-
ture suffered seriously in their health from con-
slant contact with the alleged innOcuOus mate
rias employed.
The testimony taken altogether establishes
the fact that the genuine butter produce Of the
State is being driven out Of this market by this
cheap and nasty substitute. The committee
puts the annual loss to the State at between
So, ,OOO, 900 and $10,000,000. These figures
NAV be excessive, but there can be no doubt
that the injury inflicted upon the dairy interest
Is considerable, and it is equally clear that the
manufacture of the sham butter Is distinctly
demoralizing, not only to the makers and vend-
ers, but to great number of the consumers of
the article. AS the law providing that all arti-
fetal butter should be sold on its own merits
and without disguise has been dead letter
from the first and as the temptation to take ad-
vantage Of the cheapness of the stuff is plainly
too strong for the morals of most interested
parties, prohibition is the only means of protect
ing the public.

POLITICAL OHANOES IN ENGLAND.

PULTITUdL
The English Conservatives have gained two
seats In consequence of the dissatisfaction
caused by the Governments policy in the Sou
dan. Mr.. Marriott, one of the four Liberals who
voted for the resolution of censure, resigned his
seat and appealed to his constituency to re-elect
him as a Conservative member. The result of the
contest was his return by majority of 1,457
This indicated that at least 100 Liberals had
voted for him in order to express their condem-
nation of the Governments dealings with Egypt
That was the verdict of an English borough.
The Judgment is now affirmed by an English
shire. Cambrdgeshire which in 1880 elected a
Liberal, Sir Henry Brand, replaces him with
Conservative, the majority being 9O3. This

A bill in regard to retaliation upon nations
which unreasonably exclude any OF the pro-
ducts of this country has already been reported
IN the Senate; and the House Committee on
Commerce has similar measure nearly COM
pleted. Both give the President discretionary
mower in the matter; but the Senate bill pro-
yides also for the official inspection OF our hog
products before they leave the country, so that
their wholesomeness may be attested. Ihese
measures will give both houses OF Congress
chance for careful reflection. If foreign coun-
tries keep out our products, not because tne

ize water company for the protection of their

reason why they should not be allowed to carry

1t is only natural that some of the members

their personal difficulties without violence or

fight duel with an angry fellow-member is to
be commended for replying that he would refer

he will probably be less free with his fiery pro-

The last two or three sessions Of the Senate
Committee on Cities have been specially inter-
bsting as showing what merciless and thor
pugh system of levying political contributions
the Democratic leaders of this city have been
sble to establish in the municipal departments
which they control. and especially in the De-
partment of Public Works. Even the street.
sprinklers are taxed, and If they do not pay
their permits are promptly taken away fom
them on some slight plea; or If they only pay
IN part they are allowed to retain only pro-
portionate part Of their route. In each instance

Oats as food for horses have greater
favor than any other grain because they
give good heart to the animal and are not
so heating to the blood as corn, but they
are almost universally fed in an ungrouud
state. The reason of this is probably
owing to the fact that but little trouble is
required to feed them so. and yet every
horseman knows that the grain is less nu-
tricious in that condition as the whole OF
the food is not masticated and digested.
The unmasticated. OF course, does no good
to the animal but is an absolute harm,
absorbing instead of yielding nutriment,
1t may safely be calculated, especially
with old horses, that at least one-third
less in weight of grain will keep an
animal in good condition when fed ground
than whole. is well-known fact that
the mixing of saliva with food is of the
utmost Importance in effecting easy diges-
ton. When unmasticated it is not affected
by the secretions of the glands, and the
glands, and the secretion is made at the
expense of the animals condition. If a
working horse gets but twelve quarts of
oats per day, it would consume one hun
dred and thirty bushels in a year !;
estimated at one-third less when ground,
the saving would be about forty-six
bushels of grain.

Hungarian seed which was peppered with
it. The consequence is the stuff is Just

ripen its seed, which being in the hay will
get into the manure, and so be distributed
over the farm. Cutting it Just before the
seeds harden sufficient to grow again is
one way to kill it out. We were served
somewhat like our contemporary, but we
got charlock with oats we bought of a
Boston scotsman. Our method of getting
rid of it was that of hand picking. Like
