Indian grievances have too often Deeh
neglected, doubtless because the Cahauiah
politicians were occupied with more pressing
business nearer home. In the second place inc
couse of the Metis has been made their own by

Lower Canada. The control of this frehch
popnlation is increasingly difficult, parity
because it preserves its own racial lines OF

civilized world. The connection between tne
Anglo Saxon and the Latin races In Canada
has for some time been strained because OF thesc
Influences, and the Government cannot venture
to disregard the least loyal and most trouble
some elements in the body polite.
But there is clearly an avenue OF escape Ill

the equally dangerous alternatives OF offending

question as to Rers mental condition affords
the basis of a compromise which seems per-
fectly safe and free from objection. The

In a caustic letter printed on ano'ner page ~
this impression, Senator Dawes reviews inc
history of the Indian leases which underiie 'he
trouble now existing in Indian Territory anu
along its borders. The case is stated clearly
Az soon as the csttlemen found that the De-
nartment of the Interior would permit their
leases with the tribes. and although not ap-
proving them, would allow no one 10 interiors

MED territory at few cents an acre. Inc STU

this system could have been tolerated uhue'

But one thing is certain; the order OF the rres',
dent TO the cattlemen to leave their iiiesa'
possessions within a certain time is eminen'iy
proper, and no great amount of sympathy need
be wasted on the lessees even II they lose son'e
money thereby. 1t will be noted tha' tne
remedy proposed by Senator Dawes for all the
Indian troubles is practically the one adVo-
Gated by THE TRIBUNE; namely, to give each
member of the tribe in severalty such LANDS as
he can cultivate; all surplus territory 10 DC

pROSPECLS IS To SILVER.

Just now some journals are paying much
attention to an analysis OF the vote on sr.
Randalls motion during the last session OF
Congress. But that motion was IL most Impu-
dent one to make, and many Republicans who
were earnestly opposed to silver coinage voted
against it, IL was a motion TO intrnst Demo
cratic President with Discretionary power
which the Democrats at the same time refused
to give to a Republican President then in oiiic',
and which Democratic votes had denied To
Republican Presidents before. The maniicst
object was to give the new Administration
power to extort favor and political support
from bankers and Others who were anxious to
save the country from financial disaster. The
only proper course was to suspend the coinage,
without discretionary power. Yet Republicans
were asked to support this motion, in the most
improper and offensive form, because Demo-
Gratis would not support it in any form.
But we are told that the influence Of the
Administration is going TO be exerted most
earnestly to bring about suspension of coin
age. Events thus far, it must be con fcsscd, do
not encourage that hope. Here we have, "a
the first fruits of Democratic success, what
may be called ten-cent resumption, aud a
sham reduction of the public debt. The small
change policy has one merit, and only one 1t
enables the Administration to evadc response
bility Cor time, and to escape direct collision
with majority of the Democratic party. Yet
we are asked to believe that the same Admins
tration which resorts to this measure will use
its power so vigorously and so wisely as to
overcome Democratic opposition.
1t is safe to predict that the Republicans will
vote for no half measures. They will not vote
to give the Administration the credit for
maintaining gold payments, when it really
does nothing of the sort, but throws all the risk
and all the burden on others. They will not
vote for any tricky scheme like Mr.. Warmers,

THE CONVICTION And SENTENCE or

The tIial of Riel was marked by few sensa-
tional incidents His counsel concluded that the
plea of insanity was the only one likely TO be
of any service, and they rested Oh it entirely.
The prisoner himself indignantly refused to
shelter himself behind the plea of mental IRE.
sponsbility, but the address which he delivered
was such as to show either that he really is
insane or that he was adopting cunning
method of imprcssing the jury with that belief.
The evidence brought forward by the Govern
ment was, in the absence of rebutting testi-
mony overwhelming, and the duty Of the jury
was clear. A verdict OF guilty az charged IN
the indictment was returned after a brief con-
sultatiOn, but the emotion manifested by the
foreman in announcing the verdict appears to
indicate the existence of doubt as TO the
prisoners complete sanity, and this doubt took
the form of strong recommendation to mercy.
The Court, after saying that the recommended
ton of the jury would receive consideration,
promptly sentenced Riel to be hanged, and
curiously added that there was no reason to
anticipate any mitigation of the sentence.
As matter of course the French Canadians
have received the news of Riel's conviction and
sentence with much dissatisfaction, while the
people of Upper Canada are prOportiOnately
pleased with the conclusion of the trial. Riers
execution II fixed on the 18th Of September.
