A JUST DECISION

A just decision has beer made by the At
torney General in the case Of the Crow Greek
Indian Reservation in Dakota. BE holds
that the order of President Arthur of Feb
rusry 81 is imperative. That order opened
up these lands TO settlement. The ground
upon which the Attorney General bases this
opinion is that the Sioux Indians hold titles
to the lands under the treaty of 1865. Tn.
der President Arthur's order white settl ers
had already taken up claims and were estab-
lished on these lands. The effct OF this de-
cision will be TO deprive them of any
such rights. This is as it should
be. There would be less Indian
troubles and uprisings were it not for
the determined efforts mado BY the whites
to dispossess them of their lands. which is
done by fair means or foul The Indian
reservations nearly always comprise the
choicest locations because they selected such
spots when they moved westward, crowded
thither by their avaricious Caucasian brother
But the Governments entered into contracts
guaranteeing the red man protection and a
clean title to his new home. We are glad to
know that the Attorney General proposes
that justice shall be meted out to the Sioux
regardless of that order of President Arthur.

The remarkable wearing Qualities OF the
celebrated HsZelton pianos are such that
efter ten or fifteen years OF use, they show
so title signs OF wear, and retain their first
full rich quality Of tone TO such a wonderful
extent, that they are readily mistaken for
new pianos.
This fact was fercibly illustrated the other
day IN this city. A gentleman wishing to
purchase a piano, and wanting none bat the
very best, went the rounds of the several
music stores. and. sfter a careful examine
ton of the leading makes, was convinced
that the Bszelton was the piano he wanted,
and, FOR the purpose Of making 8 selection,
entered PssTsou's music house. No. 70 North
PennSy lySDia ftTeet, where the sole agency
for the sale Of these beautiful instruments
is conducted.
But remembering that be had given his
promise 10 call sgsin before purchasing at
another music store, said 70 Mr. Pearson he
would make his word good By going and in
forming them of his decision before ordering
the Hazelton TO his house.
On reaching the music store and making
known his Intentions they laughed at him
and rIdiculed bis choice. and said: why,
here is HaZelton we have Just traded in
been used only nine months, that we will
sell you chesp." The gentleman examined
the piano carefully, and 1t showing no evil
dence of wear and the tone equal to a new
one, and being so much less in
price was convinced it was q bargain,
purchased the piano then and there much 10
the surprise of the dealers, who only gave a
much lees price than the piano was really
worth and derided the merits of the Hazel
ton in order to sell one OF the makes they
handled.
MIR. Pearson was informed by the gentle
man of bis purchase and was requested to
call st his house and examine the piano, and
when Mr. Pearson told him the piano was at
least mite years old instead of nine months
he would not believe it until a letter from
Hszleton Bros, factory established the fact
that the piano was manufactured in jan
usry, 1874. and shipped TO indianapolis in
March, l S74, which proves conclusively that
the Hszeton are the best and most durable
pianos in the world.

rived in this city Yesterday with a requisi-
ton for John @. Phillips, who was arrested
here On Thursday on the strength of letter
from the above town which said that he had

THE RUSSIAN MISSION.

The information is conflicting regarding
the status of General Lawton, recently ap-
pointed Minister to Russia. One report is
that the President has Withdrawn mis- name,
and another is that the nomination stands
without rejection or confirmation by the
Senate. The objection was raised by Senator
EdmuRds who held that the appointee's po-
htical disabilities had never been removed.
The Georgia Senators respondea that he had
received full pardon from President John.
son in 1867. Senator Edmunds insisted that
this did not remove the political disabilities.
Re quoted Section 3 OF the Fourteenth
Amendment. The portions which he held
to apply to this case are:
No person shall hold any Office under the
United STATES who. having previously taken an
the Constitution OF the United States, shall have
engaged in instruction or rebellion against the
same. or given aid and comfort TO the enemies
thereof: but Congress may. by vote OF two-thirds
of each house. remove such disability.
A dispatch to the Chicago News says the
Georgia Senators commended that General
Lawton had never taken an oath to support
the Constitution Of the United States; and
that the oath he took was mere oath OF
allegiance. But the Republicans seemed
determined TO defeat the confirmation, so
the nomination was Withdrawn. The Presi-
dent and Secretary of State will examine
the question Of law carefully before acting
further in the matter. The Secretary of State
is understood 70 hold that the pardon granted
by johnson removes the disability. II the
President agrees with him General Lawton
