INJUSTICE 10 TIE RED MAN.

Indisn Commissioner Adkins Oetrays his
ignorance OF human nature and HE lack OF ex-
Derenee by stating that he does not believe there
Will be any trouble diffieulty in removing the
more THAI 3,ICO settlers on the Crow Creek and
winnebago lands. Mr.. Adkins evidently believes
that Door and hard working settlers who earn by
honest toll whstey er they may have, like nothing
better than being the khuttecocks OF Nations
laundering battledore, knocked aiInlessly from
place to place. II the ettlers liz those lands are
trouble or forcible remoDstrance, they are not
made OF the stun, which. according TO popular
theory, forms the framework OF our hardy
pioneers.-Minneapolis Tribune.
"Betrays his ignorance OF human nature
indeed That is Just what Commissioner
Adkins does not do. On the contrary, he
fully understands human nature so well as
to know that those white SELLERS" are
band of squatters who have undertaken to
absorb the Crow Greek and Winnebaeo lands
Ia Oklahoma boomer style, without any
right or title. There are plenty of frst-class
lands belonging to Uncle Sam to which
poor and hardworklng settlers" who are
prompted by just and honest motives can
acquire legitimate claims under the home
stead, presumption and other laws.
The 5000 settlers who have entered
upon Indian reservations, which were prop
erly ceded to them bv our Government years
ago by just and proper treaty, have no
rights whatever to those lands.
The simple truth of the matter is that an
immense pressure was brought TO bear upon
President Arthur to open up these lands to
settlement. Those importuning him to do
this were determined to take these fine
reservations from the red man, right or
wrong, and were ready en- masse to rush in,
crowd out the Indians, and take possession
of their homes, their improvements, their
everything, which they did exactly
do as soon as the excuse was given them by
g careless and indifferent Republican Presi-
dent and his land-grabbing Secretary Teller.
The Government made no mistake when
by treaty it promised to protect the Indian
IN The enjoyment of his own. 1t is the red
men who have been the shuttlecocks of a
Nations laundering bsttledore, knocked
simlessly from place to place."
| President Clevelands administration will
sift to the bottom this whole matter of the Sc
| questrstion OF Indian reservations, which has
been going on almost sd libitum for years.
| All the wrongs and abuses inflicted upon the
| aborigines will be shown up in their horrible
reality, and it will reveal a fearful showing
| of mans inhumsnity to man."

HERE is another specimen of Republican
tactics in the Chicago election. One sat
worked on the church element and another
on the saloons Mr.. Harrison said in an in
terview the day after the election: There is
another thing to which the large vote for the
Republican ticket may with equal justice be
attributed. A rumor Of ii reached me some
time ago, but it has only leaked out to-day.
1t is that many Of the salcon-keepers were
approached by Republican workers and were
given TO understand that If they wovld vote
for Smith, and the Republican ticket could
win, they would be willing to pass law al
Springfield reducing the liquor license This
was believed by great many saloon keepers

TIE TELEPHoNB vILLAINY.

The Indiana State Senate Chamber and
the hotels where Senators are stopping have
for two days received the visits of capitalists
selected from the lists OF directors and stock
holders OF the Western Union Telegraph and
Americana Bell Telephone Companies. two
gigantic monopolies with blended interest in
defeating the bill which proposes to reduce
the outrageous extortion imposed by the
telephone owners upon the people. There
never was drawn q more clearly defined
issue between an aggressive monopoly and
the interests of the people. No honest
man will assert, after invesigstion, that the
profits of the telephone organization is not
frightful imposition upon the people. Here
is an institution of chiefly foreign owner
ship enjoying rights OF way in Indiana and
immunity from taxation demanding the
right to extort tolls for the use of the instru-
ments they are thus permitted 10 use, which
are simply infamous. Paying absolutely
nothing for the privilege Of doing business in
the State, it sets its poles on the streets and
alongside the public highways; runs its
wires upon housetops, often to the in
convenience of citizens, and, though de-
handing from the people from 133 TO 200 per
cent. per annum upon its instrument, yet
expects the State Senate and Democratic
Senate at that, to refuse to pass bill reduc.
ing its extortionste collections from the peo-
pie.
The House Of Representatives came
squsrely up to the line of its duty by pass
ing, with practically unanimous vote, the
bill to reduce the grasping rentals OF the
telephone monopolists 1t Is difficult to
believe there is danger of the Senate
not supplementing the action OF the
House. We can hardly credit the
report that one or more Democratic Senators
are opposing and will speak in opposition to
this reduction bill. What claim has the tel
ephone monopoly upon the State or upon
the Democracy calling for Democratic Ssna-
tors to rise on the floor of the Senate and
champion its interests, which are surely
opposed to the interests of the people2 II it
has no such claim upon the State or the
party, what is the influence sctusting Dem
ocTstic Senators to champion this monopoly?
The Sentinel asks these questions for the
people; let the Senators answer
The Indianapolis sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis, Ind.) 1880-1904, 1885-04-10

THE sction of the Indiana Senate to-day
upon the Telephone bill is unquestionsbly
locked TO with greater interest than has any
measure before the Legislature during the
session. There is no mistaking or lodging
an issue so sharply and distinctly defined, in
plain truth as clear as day light. 1t is a strug-
gle OF two forces-on one side wicked al
lance CT two of the most avaricions and
grinding monopolies that ever cursed any
people; on the other side the intsrestsloi the
bust ness men Of Indianapolis. In the latter
ar INCLUDED the commercial and profession
al men, whose influence Was potential in
sending TO the Senate the gentlemen who
are TO vote on this measure TO day.

IT looks as if the Republican gangs OF Chi
csgo did most of the swindling at the cleo
tion for Mayor the other day. The Chicago
Times fires the shot into them in this fash
ion: The eabble OF lot of irrational polit-
ical dudes and disappointed party organs
about frauds in the city election is viciously
absurd. No stronger presumptive proof of
the general fairness OF the election, so far as
The victorious party is concerned, csn be de-
sired than is furnished by the fact that in
the wards where the Democrats are most
largely in the majority the falling of in the
pa1ty's vote is the greatest. II fraud was
contemplated anywhere these wards would
naturally have been chosen for the scene OF
operations. Yet in half dozen instances
the Democratic wards show q much larger re.
duetion of the Democratic than of the Re
publican vote, as compared with the Novem.
Der election. Take the Fifth Ward for ex
ample. Hsrrison's vote there is over 1000
short Of his figures in November, while
Smith has but 500 votes less than Oglesby's
score. The Sixth shows a similar result
Harrison losing about 600 votes, while the
decline OF the Republican vote in that ward
is less than $50. The Seventh goes the same
way. Harrison losing about 700 votes and
SmiIhl50. In the Eighth Harrison fell off near
500 votes, while the Republican candidate
came within about 200 of the vote 0glesbJ
received in November. In some Republican
wards, where the Democrats were less con
fdent, they exerted themselves more vigor
ously. and their proportional losses were

In the same style the poetical works Of such

Our RuREAu OF NEWS.

Good as has been the news service by the
Western Associated Press, recent arrange.
ment will further secure the papers con-
nected with it the news OF our own country
and of the world at large, as no papers not
belonging to the Association can be sup
piled. This new arrangement consists OF
consolidation with the New York Associated
Press for better obtaining foreign advices
and by the leasing of special wires, which
makes the Association independent of
locsl telegraph offices. These special wires
are operated in Indianapolis aud in ten
other cities, including the largest in The
United States. Ia this city the Sentinel and
the Journal get the full service
of the new arrangement, which
is shared also by the News, the afternoon
paper. Thus advantageously situated, the
three papers named continue to lead any
other papers in Indiana In furnishing tel
egrsphic information OF events at home and
abroad. With special day and night OPP
eratives for the special wires the very latest
occurrences up to time of going to press will
be given to readers OF the Sentinel, the Jour
nal and the News. The service may be trust
ed as reliable, and it will be much fuller
than that of any other news supplying 1850
citation can be.
