THE stage is not wanting in defenders
against all who presume to find fault with the
numerous scandals that have involved "pop-
ular" actresses, and it is possible that there
may be some one who will come to the de-
Tense of miss" Violet Cameron, who coolly
casts off her husband TO accept the attentions
of a married lord, who has made fool of
himself on more than one occasion because of
his apparent infatuation for this lady. As it
is, the majority of the actresses who come to
this country from abroad come here with their
skirts reeking with the leprosy of social
scandal; yet they are petted and patronized,
and return home with literally hundreds of
thousands of dollars, the price Of their impu-
dence, contributed by gullible American
public. It is to be hoped that this pair, now
about to start on tour of the country, will
meet the rebuke their conduct deserves The
husband of this woman, becaused he dared
complain Of the treatment he was receiving,
was thrown into Jail, while she and her
noble" lover are permitted to continue to do
as they please, and to arrange for the harvest
of money they have reason to believe they
will reap

Mr.. HERBERT WELSH, secretary of the
Indian Rights Association, says it is not the
intention of that bodyto bring formal charges
against Commissioner Atkins, of the Indian
Bureau, but that they desire. merely to call
public attention to the manner in which the
affairs Of the red men are managed by the
officials now in charge. Mr.. Welsh is not
pleased with the policy which seems to ami
mate the department in control Of the Indians,
and says political partisanship enters 80 large
The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1886-10-05

~ into the making Of appointments that the
question Of fitness for the position Is almost
entirely ignored. There is q total diregard,
he says for the civil-service rules. Mr.. Welsh
adds: ut is this against which We protest.
We simply want the civil-service rules to
be extended to the Indian service. We
have repeatedly called the attention Of
the administration to the matter, but
without practical correction Of the evil. !"
The Indian Rights Association can go on
calling the Presidents attention until they
are hoarse, and they will have no practical
response from him. He may, if sharply
prodded, write them letter promising great
reforms and making stern threats against all
who violate his orders. The President is an
adept at this sort of thing; but he will never
put any of his theories into practice by dis
missing any of the incompetent partisans who
have got into Office during his term. At least
if he does, in answer to the appeals of the In
dians' friends he will take very different
course from that which he has pursued in re-
gard to complaints of the inefficiency Of the
postal service. Mr.. Cleveland prefers the
easy occupation of posing as reformer to the
hard work Of accomplishing actual reforms.
