at home on this subject and has made him

golden friDges, and when they were finished
despatched one to Johnston, another To Beau

latter afterwards dashing cavalry leader,

ViDdlcatlDg the Administration,

Senator Dawes, through the columns OF
the New York Tribune, amply justifes the
president, his secretary of the interior and
the attorney general, in the stand they have
taken against the cattlemen's claims to
enjoy the territory of the government upon
which it has placed the Indians. They are
there as wards of the nation with no power
to lease their lands nor to divert them
from the purposes for which they are given
to them. Rapacious ranchmen, taking ad
vantage of the shiftlessness of the average
red man and his desire to get little
ready money, have leased their lands at
rates which affords them enormous profits.
The government and Indians are not only
cheated out of their own, but the demoral-
izing results of the policy are widespread
AS Senator Dawes points out
Take for instance the Cheyennes and Ara
pahoes, now the terror OF innocent settlers ON
the border. There has been distributed
among these Indians, OF this rental, ever
since the leases have been in force, about
$4,000 year. This has been enough to en-
able every male Indian to purchase Win
chester rifle and ammunition in Kansas.
They have for many months commanded the
reservation and its agent, compelling him on
more occasions than one, with rifle levelled
at his head, to execute their orders
Their conflicts with the cowboys brought
on TO their reservations under these leases,
are filling the land with terror. Yet five
years ago these Indians were as peaceable as
any In the land. The agency itself then
owned herd quietly and securely grazing
ON the reservation, which with proper care,
with its increase, would now number several
thousand cattle. The scholars i'm the agency
school, saving from the government rations
and investing i'm cattle, had also little
herd OF their own, numbering at that
time sixty-fve Two of the pupils were
married in the month of August of that
year and took their share of the school herd
and went out TO set up a ranch of their own.
In that month travelled nine days through
that reservation unguarded and slept secure
ly In tents ON the open prairie How is it
nowY The agency herd has been eaten up,
the school herd has been sold. Those who

Army Vacancies.

The refusal of the president 70 fill the
vacancies in the army by appointment from
civil life will commend itself to the coun-
try as a sensible conclusion. There are
something like dozen vacancies in second
lieutenancies which will, in this way, he
saved for the next class at West Point
which will be large. These young men
can therefore be provided for at once.
There is no special necessity for filling the
vacancies at this time when it is impossi-
BILE to give all our soldiers work, and until
a system has been devised by which
some assurance shall be given that appli-
cants for civil life for places in the army
are well qualified for their places, it is
much better that the West Point academy
should furnish us with our soldiers. 1t j:
evident that the day has passed wher
presidential, cabinet and congressional
favorites can be pushed upon the army.
