The Afchans are Jews.

Many travellers who have been in Al ghanistan have said they thought the Afghanistans are descendants of the lost tribes of Israel. The strong resem
 biance of the Afghans Co t-e Jews strtLgthens this belIef. It has recently teen discovered that the Ameor ot Al ghanistan published in 1882 a proclaim
 atiOn to his people, in which be claimed that the Afghans are of Hebrew origin. In this proclamation l.e reviewed the history Of the lost tribe after BabylOnish captivity until, after wandering m the hills of GhOUr, they settled in Afghan istan. There IS probably but little, If any, reason to doubt the relationship between the Jews and the AfghaCs. Ar ghanistan lies directly to the east of the ancient Kingdom of Babylon, and there ls nothing unlikely in the story that the lOst tribes wandered eastward and fin ally settled in what IS now known as Afghanlstan. So little communication was there at that time between distant countries, that 1t need not be considered strange that the tribes that went east ward from Babylon were looked upon as lost by those which returned to Pales- tine. The belief that the Afghans are the lost ten tribes of Israel would add greatly to the interest with which Bib lcal students will watch the course Of events ID Central Asia -Ex.

INDIAN RESPONSIBILITY.

The New York Tribune of the 2jth, ID
 commenting upon the prospect of n Wal with the Cheyennes, takes the occasion to throw very much of the blame for the Indian troubles upon the whites. Ii says: "It Is ot record that the abuses committed upon the most advanced and peaceful tribes by their white neighbors been as frequent and as outrageous as those which acquire a certain apology from the savagery of the redskins upon whom they are perpetrated. It Is no secret that the cowboys and men Of their class look with scorn upon all pro- iects for civilizirg Indians. Their say Ing is tha. 1s only good Indian is a dead one, G1L ,Ley certainly act as if they beliey ! -i- implicitly. The tales of cruelty which tine Indians could re- late against thei- white neighbors would in many cases more than offset the blood curdhng stores about the ferocity of the Indians eh have been so long current"
 Fhls disp 80 much ignorance of the Indian 4-astion that one Is con strained to ovs-l ok the harsh gccusa- tons which are made aRanst the whites Ii Is an outgrow h Of that erroneous con- ception of the Indian character and the true relations which exist between the Indian tribes and the government of the United States, which is SO prevalent ID the east. The eastern view of this sub- lect is colored by the idea thar every man in Colorado. New Mexico and An- zons Is an intruder, and that the Indians are defrauded of their rights by the white occupation of the country. It is the old romantic notion that the Indian tribes are independent nations, and that without their consent DO white man can obtain a residence in this western coun- try.
 A few minutes calm consideration of the subject will show any reasonable | man thst this understanding of it Is founded n error. In the earlier history | of the Republic there was west of the | Missouri river a vast, ill-defned region | known as the Indian country" This has ceased to exist. Over all this west ern part of the United States there are now organized state and territorial gov srnments. Over these the constitution ot the United States and the acts of Con- gress are the supreme law. This law, In us ultimate authority, rests upon the Indian tribes as completely as in does upon white men. Whatever may have been the justice O. the injustice of the ofieihai conquest of the country by Eu- ropeans, the fact exists today that the Indian tribes are completely subject to

SCHOOL TRUSTEES.

So much distorted bosh have been ex- pressed regarding the existing school aw, (which is, by the way, the careful lnd joint production of ex-Superin:end- mt W. B. Hurton and the present SUD- .rintendent, R. L. Long, and is based lpUn the school laws of other states) that We give the sections bearing upon he authority aud ppwers of the trustees
 Sec. jO. An election for school trus- tees must be held in each district, on he last Saturday ID June in each year. Second. They shall be elected 70 hold office for one year from the first Saturday ID July succeeding their election.
 See,ion 5S. The power and duty of he board of trustees are as follows: FIrst-It shall be the duty of the trus- tees Co meet as soon as practI- cable after the commencement of their erm of office, at such place in the dis fri-t as may be the most convenient, and To nrgEniza hy appointing one of theII umber clerk Of the board.

the authority of the United States gov ernment. Indians are as much under obligations to obey the laws ss white men are. The well-meaning people of the east lose sight of this fact, and so they are led sstray in all their con- alterations of thIs important subject.
 For the better government of the h. dians Congress has deemed 1t wise to place them upon reservations. Bound aries are set to these reservations, with ID which no white man can acquire any fixed property rights. The Indians are protected in the enjoyment of their reservations, and the whites have no disposition to disturb them there. What tine whites demand, and what every sensible man must see they have right to demand, IS that they shall be protect cd Tn the enjoyment of their rights of of the reservations. They insist upon 6 recognition of the plain truth that the IUdians are not privileged characters, exempt from all obligations to obey ihe laws; but that, on the contrary, they are as much bound to obdience as white men are.
 It Is not true that the whites Infiict as many abuses upon civilized and peace ful Indians as they do upon the savage tribes. The relations whIch now exist, aDd which for years have existed, be- tween the whites and such trii es as the Cherokees, Creeks and Choctsws ln the Indian Territory, and the PueblOs and Navajos in New Mexico, prove the con- tary to be true.
 It is not true that Western men look with scoru upon all projects for civiliz- ing Indians. On the contrary, Western men believe that Indians can be civil
 zed. But they deny that they are sd- vanced in civilization by being encour- aged in lawlessness. It must not be for gotten that,;with the average Indian, im- munity from punishment IS encourage ment to commit crime. Western men demand that the Indians shall be made amenable to the laws and that to the extent to which they are capable of citi- zenship they shall be held responsible as citizens. When they come of of their reservation and steal and murder, they should be punished ss white men wolld be. They should be sent to the peniten- tisry for theft, and for murder they should be hanged. The trouble is that, IS a rule. the Indians are not punished at all. They are allowed to return from thelr murderous raids to lives of ease and security upon their reservstions.-I Denver Emancipation.

THE people of the eastern states who have been subjected to all sorts of impO. sition from adulterated articles of food, seem to have drawn the line of their ps tience at bogus eotter, and have organ ized and are waging a concerted warfare against the foul and dangerous prepara- tion officially known as oleomargsriDe It is commonly manufactured from fats of the vilest description, almost too OfIen- sive for use as soap grease, and, by a course of chemical combination, 1t IS disguised in the form of butter. Not TithstandIDg the fact that a stringent law exists in thIs terrItory requiring such limitations to bear & legible label indicating its true character, q large proportion of the butter imported and sold here is oi this dishonest species. The law is b good one and it ought to be rigidly enforced. Bad and sdulter- ated food are productive of disease. and the law should also make it a criminal offense for dealer to sell unwholesome and adulterated food for the pure and genuine article.

"PrOspeetOr, Unknown"
(Phenix Heraldl


 Ia the list of those killed by Apaches during the present raid, published by an exchange, there occurs the two words which head this column In one of the lonely gOrges of the mountains of southwestern New Mexico, scout ing party discovered the unknown dead, horribly mutllsted by hls savage mur- dereTs. A shallow grave was hastily dug, and, unshrouded and uucofiined, the body WAS laid away in "the window less place of rest" Who was the vie tim of savage cruelty no one knew. A rude board was placed at the head of hIs lonely grave, and on It roughly carved. "PrOspector, Unknown Of hls history or antecedents there was nothing to tell tho tale; Ot his relatives or friends not trace could be found. The Apache bullet which SO treacher- OUsly cut the golden cord. destroyed at the same time every hnk that bound hIm to home and friends. He hGs gone to meet the thousands of victims of savage atrOcIty who have gone be- fore; joined that dauntless host of piOn eers whose blood has mOistened the mountains and plains oi Arizona and New Mexico.
 The poor "ProspectOr' has at last found the bonanza winch brings peace and rest, and cure for all the trials aud troubles that beset the weary trav- eler down the rugged road of life. AL er this titful fever Tn quest of wealth's hvetIng phantom, he sleeps well. But, doubtless, far away III some Eastern home, loving hearts are anxIuusly waiting for word from the wanderer n the distant west; eagerly looking for some news Of the wayward by they have not heard from for SO long.

Loving friends shall mourn for the lost one whom they never more shall see. In that lonely New Mexican canon he has found a resting place, and although no tender hands were there to deck it, yet the grass grows greer. the flowers are in bloom and the winds chant an eternal requiem above the "Prospector's" grave

IL IS the only word We know of that expresses the idea.

IT is a pleasant thing to contemplate that in the advanced ideas of christian. fly, hell has been completely ami. Inflated. Every person ot good mora ideas and training has always felt certain that this would be the inevitable ulti- mate result. At the first quarter post il dropped back to hades, and at the sec. ond quarter 1t was simple sheol. The three-quarter post will probably find Il dIstsnced and the home stretch will be walk over. Now solemnly there is not as much leviiy ss horse sense in this picture. By each revision of the scrip. tures the terrOrs of the burning lake ar, sottened, and ns even the wind is tenn. pered to the shorn lamb, so do we think that the consequences of our existence and inherited depravity will meet with as fair treatment as a mutton chop.

 THE retiring board of school trustees, upon thelr last official meeting, capped the climax of Absurdity in attempting
 contract with teachers for the ensuing ear By law, their labors end upon the closing of the school year. on June 3Oih. The trustees for the ensuing year are trustees de facto, from July 1st, notwith- standing they are not required to official ly organize until the following Saturday. For tho sake of argument suppose that by technicality the expiring board are authorized to perform the chief duties of the new board, We ask if It displays that courtesy due from one set of officials to their sue cessors? Does 1t not look like an at tempt to usurp the natural and lawful perogatIves Of those to whom the people have confided the management of the school affairs? We will not impugn the motives of the board m this action, for we think they have been honestly misled in the spirit and letter of their authority. Their action will probably be absolutely ignored by the new trustees and that will be the end of it..
