Will the World be Better?

Suppose the dream Of Russian amhi-
ton in the East should be gratiied and
Persia, Afghanistan, and British India
fall under her power, the next step
would be the conquest Of China. The
Gar would then rule over half the hui
man race. The child isliying VINO will
probably witness this vast extension of
Russian power. The Britishare detest-
ed by the Hindoos, who will welcome
any change, not indeed SO much that
they have been badly governed as on
account Of the humiliations to which
they have been subjected by the British
authorities. Natives are allowed to fill
but few. and those the minor offices Of
trust OF honorin Hindostan. The prin-
cipal ones are all filed by importations
from the United Kingdom. Hence
there is no opening for the ambitious
youth Of the great Asiatic peninsula.
And hence the desire is universal to
throw Off the British yoke. The ap-
pearance Of a Russian army would be
the signal for d general rising, and the
comparatively small British army
would soon be overwhelmed. 1t is not
at all likely that the change would bet
ter the condition Of the Hindoos, for it
would probably be merely a transfer
from King Stork to King Log. Still it
must be confessed that Russia has
proved to be a great civilizing power in
Central Asia Law and order has been
introduced in a vastregion Of the earth's
surface heretofore given over to turbu-
lence and semi-barbarism. The Cars
government judged by Western ideals
is not up to the most advanced stand
ards, but is admirably suited to bring
ing under control the wild tribes that
have heretofore placed Central Asia
outside Of all ciyilivirg influences.
Any government is better than no gov
eminent. But the situation Of affairs
is such that for many long years to
come the news from thatQuarter of the
world will be eagerly scanned by Amer
leans. There is a strong bond Between
Russians and Americans. It is beliey-
ed somehow that they are. eventually
to divide the world between them.
Both are growing powers-increasing
in number and in extent Of territory at
a sWifter rate than any OTHER Of the ma
lions. Some time in the not distant flu
ture we shall be supreme in this cont
nent.-Dcmorest's Monthly.

The following statement OF the con-
dition Of affairs on the reservation,
taken from the Inter Ocean, is Il true
picture as it exists at the present time:
The cast of the settlers Oh the lands
on the Winnebago reservation is n Of
peculiar hardship. The went on the
lands not in the face Of the protest Of
the authorities, but after the proclama-
ton Of the president opening the lands
to settlement had been issued. They
went into the reservation as home
makers, feeling secure in their titles.
Their homes have been taken from
them with a stroke of a pen. President
Cleveland's proclamation not only re-
verses the action of President Arthur,
but it drives thousands Of good citizens
from hCmcSteadS taken under the form
of law. 1t is absurd to claim that Il re-
publican administration was less care
full Of the rights of the Indians than a
democratic administration will be. The
question of right Or wrong to the Indi-
ans is practically not under discussion.
The issue is one Of Interpretation of a
technical point, a point in regard to
which the legal advisers Of the two adj
minlstrations differ.
Admitting that there is ground for
this difference of opinion, there is still
no good reason why the settlers should
bear all the losses incident to Il change
Of administration. They have kept
faith with the government. and the
government should in some way keep
faith with them.
Were the Indians to be removed from
the reservation measures would be talk
en- to compensate them. Now that the
white settlers who located on the lands
when they were opened to settlement
by proclamation areto be removed, Why
should the government rot act as fairly
towards them as it would towards the
Indians under similar circumstances?
The government has made amistake.
That is clear. But the president hav-
ing declared the purpose Of the govern
ment, armed resistance to the executive
order is not to BE thought of. 1t would
be foreign to the character of Dakotai-
ans to put themselves in the attitude
OF resisting the government, and he is
a bad adviser who encourages such a
policy. They cannot yield without an
attempt to secure their rights, but this
attempt must lie made through the
proper channels, and net by appeal to
arms.

The act of the Pierre mob in hanging
the alleged murderer, Bell, will not be
generally commended by the people Of
Dakota, who are already under the ban
of a reputation for lawlessness in easts
ern political and social circles. The
acts Of a few reflect on the whole. The
crime charged against Bell was one in
volving particularly aggravating cir
cumstances. 1t was coldblooded, delib.
crate and cowardly, if the statements
presented are true. The charge against
Bell was based upon the confession Of
his accomplish, Bennett, coupled with
the fact that there was bad feeling be-
tween the alleged murderer and the
murdered man. When the body was
eXhumed it was found, if reports are
correct, to be wrapped in Bells over
coat. This is paraded as evidence
against him, when a calm and unbiased
view OF the circumstances would sug-
gest that no murderer in his right
mind, would ever leave behind him
such palpable evidence of bloody deed.
This feature of the case would tend to
establish the suspicion that an attempt
WAS made to fasten upon him a crime
for which he was not responsible, and
such suspicion is not weakened by the
confession Of Bennett, made after he
was in the clutches of the law and his
own life in peril because it was suppos-
ed he was the murderer. But Bell is
dead and his story never will be known.
Only a few days before he was hung he
saidto a reporter that hecould establish
his innocence-that he could prove.
| when the time arrived. that on the day
and at the very hour when it is said the
murder was committed he was far away
from the scene of crime. When asked
if he was ready for trial he replied that
he was and that he was anxious to set
tie the mystery connected with the
murder, and that all he wanted was Il
chance for his life. In the face of these
declarations he was hanged by a mob
without the opportunity to make good
his assertions in court. There is a
chance that the enraged citizens of
Hughes county have wreaked their VEN
geance upon an innocent man.-Preas
and DakOtaian.
