SEVEN million bales of cotton repre-
sent an immense amount of wealth. A
region capable of producing it has the
means of the greatest prosperity, and
there is something wonderful in the in
crease of this production over what it
was before the war The largest amount
raised in any ons year during chat era
was three aud half million of bales,
and then it was thought that cotton was
king. 1t was also believed that the in
stitution of slavery was essential TO its
successful production. A crop raised
by free labor twice as large as the lar
gest ever raised in the slave times,
shows what an amazing change has ta-
ken place. Cotton is Lot king in the
sense IL which it was once claimed to be.
but its power in a commercial sense is
twice as great as it was at any time be-
fore slavery went out of existence.

Secretary of the Commonwealth, was

The Reputatton of a STANDARD Arttnl


The Reputation of a Standard Article
Is seldom injured by surreptitious rivalry.
lmtators of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
have not only lost money by attempting un-
derhand competition with it, but have actu-
ally contributed to enhance the estimation
In which the genuine medicine is held. The
public at large has for many years been ac-
quainted with the ear marks that distinguish
the real from the spurious, and cannot be
persuaded that other articles sold in a some
what similar guise are equally good. Fever
and aguer constipation, dyspepsia and live
complaint are not durable, by cbeap local
bitters, eye openers and tonics, but the fact
Is too well proven and too generally known
to admit Of conscientious dispute, that for
these and other maladies the great household
medicine is safe and thorough remedy
Not only in the United States, but in Mexi.

merits are widely recognized and its reputa-

Hon. John I'll. Oberly Gives His Views of
the Present System and the Policy of the
Future.
LAKE MoHoNE, N. Y, Oct 10.-John
II. Oberly, Superintendent of Indian
Schools, under Secretary Lamar, delivered
an impromptu address yesterday before tho
Indian Civilization Conference here. 1t re.
lated principally to the management
of Indian educational affairs under
the present Administration. He sail
that when he entered upon his duties
he found no system prevailed, and
many OF the teachers were not suitable per-
sons. He declared his intention of grad
ually wedding out the incompetent ones
and filling their places with good Demo-
Gratis. He condemned the present system
of teaching. The list of textbooks to be
found in Indian schools is a quarter of a
mile long, and embraces the works of every
Republican school-book publisher in the
country. He did not think much
of this pretended textbook educa-
ton. He would teach the Indian not only
the simple rudiments, but what might be
called pOlltics-the structure of the Gov
eminent; his rights of property and person;
the wrong system Of his fathers, and how
to work and earn a living. He did not
think much of teaching boys trades which
they could not utilize. After edu-
eating the boys he suggested
teaching them cattle-raising, allowing
them to contract with white men to take
herds on their reservations and return
them when called for, all the work on the
reservations to be done by Indians. He
also favored assisting them to raise cattle
for themselves. Mr.. Oberly said in conclu-
sion: :" hope to make some radical
changes, for | believe that only through
the school-house can the Indian be led into
the light of civilization" The conference
adopted a series of resolutions as plat
