TRUSTING THE INDIANS

It is not new plan that General
Sheridan proposes for keeping the
Cheyennes under control but it Is neg
as applied to that tribe. II Is to enlist
in the United States military service a
certain number of Cheyenne warriors.
10 be commanded by an officer of expe-
rience, who has knowledge of the In
dian character and tact il dealing with
the race. These Indians should be put
ON an equal footing with regular sold
iers as regards pay privileges and dis
cipline, and their duties would be OF a
police nature on the reservations in
quiet times, or of active military ser
vice in case of serious rebellion on the
part of the Indians.
1t will be remembered how few
years ago General Crook tried the ex
pertinent of enisting a company Of
Apache scouts 70 pursue or capture
their rebelHous tribe For a time the
experiment was watched with q good
deal of interest; more than once t was
reported that the scouts had proven
treitors, and were aiding the Apaches
but these tales were libes, The Indians
retaining faithful to the government,
and fighting well whea occasion re-
quired. never hesitating to obey the
commands of their officers. In
Wyoming and Dakota Sioux have long
performed police duty, and been faith
full and efficient, being vigorous and
determined in bringing their rebellIous
kindred into subsection. So far as we
know, in no instance have the Indians
employed and trusted by The govern
m0nt proven treaeherous or unfaithful,
their sense of honor being stronger than
their attachment to the tribes. The
Cheyennes are considered more tricky
chan either the Sioux or the Apaches.
but the scheme that General Sheridan
proposes is one that the govern
ment can well afford to try; its success
would accomplish much in the way of
saving money and avoiding trouble,
while its failure would leave matters in
no worse condition than they are now.
One chief evil in the policy of dealing
with the Indians is that the latter have
been treated as subjects Of conquering
power, and unworthy Of trust and con-
fidence. Persons familiar with the In
dian chara ter say that the red man
appreciates a responsibility imposed on
him, and is faithful to a trust when the
other party to the compact does not
deceive him.

"a commander of the army, i'll time
OF peace, cannot be ordered out of the
United States unless he consent | do
not consent"
That ended the interview.
a little while afterward General Grant
was suddenly ordered on special seryi e
to California, and, OF course, had to go.
At the same time very impulsive and,
on occasions, desperate officer, was OIL
dered from the West to Washington.
To him, as each was travelling toward
the other, Grant telegraphed:
Arrange to meet me for day at
indispensable"
They met, Grant disclosed the entire
plan; the other officer came ON to
Washington, he took the same grounds
Grant had taken and the plan fell
through.
There are times when cocl-headed.
sturdy, stubborn man like Grant who
dares to assert himself in defiance al
most of law, is necessary for ayerting
great troubles. Had General Grant
acted with President Johnson
on either occasion above noted,
the consequences would certainly have
been disastrous; but to refuse to act
was semi7revolutionary and rebellious.
1t was Grants known patriotism that
quieted the fears of the people when he
defied authority, and acted as Cesar
would have done. A century hence,
when the history of the years from 1864
to rs shall be written some will wonder
why Grant did not make himself an
emperor. and will remark upon the mar
row escape that the republic had; but
those who lived during those years felt
no fear, or at least, had
felt less fear than future gen.
erations will say they should have
manifested. Grants, Bonapartes,
Washingtons, Cromwells and Caesars
are necessary to the worlds well-being,
and seemingly they come and go at the
right time. Were they to appear at
other times they would be disastrous.

to ascertain what the government has
to pay for boarding the prisoners in
the Penitentiary? 1t costs the city
forty-fve cents a day to provide pri-
soner three full meals OF clean, we'll

fifteen cents a meal compare with the
price that government paysfor what is
served to the inmates of the Peniten-

THE FOLLOWING is a copy ola tele-
gram from the Capital which appeared
in eastern papers of the 18th of July:
WASHINGTON, July 27.-Agent David
son. OF the Mormon church of Utah,
passed through here to-day. en- route to
Jackson and DeKalb Counties. Ala
bama. where he expects to purchase
sufficient territory for the settlement of
300 Europeans who have Joined the
church and are soon to arrive in the
United States. Mr.. Davidson, it is said,
is provided with funds sufficient to ac-
complish his undertaking without de-
lay.
The fact that there is absolutely
nothing in the above statement. as its
author knew, does not prevent the
hungry editor from seeing in it cause
for alarm that the Mormons will soon
be n'control of the country south OF
the Mason and Dixon line. 1t is some
what strange that nobody has ever sus-
pected the Mormons of having designs
on the North Pole.

he were half as old as he is. Punctually
every morning at 8 o'clock his tall figure

just as punctually at 4:30 in the afternoon
he leaves. A watch can almost be regu-

A Rich Find.
[Detr1it Free Press.l

A broad tract of land in Lisbon, Me-.
known for years as the "Pine Woods, " is
now one of the most highly valued lots
of land in that state. Two years ago it
could have been bought for s. an acre,
and today $25, 900 an acre is its estimated
value. 1t is owned by E. N. Chamber
lain, who leased it a few months ago to
p. II. Taylor, of Columbus, Ohio. Mr..
chamberlain is to receive a royalty on the
product of a paint mine that it contains.
The value of the earth comprised in this
tract of land was discovered through OBJ
servation of the fact that the mud cling
ing to the wheels of vehicles driving
through it dried on like paint and was
removed with difficulty. The earth is
yellow, and has been pronounced by
Professor Stanley, of Bates college, to be
a variety of sienna.
