the office thus made vacant, and he

Mr.. Hamilton has discharged
the duties of the office in faithful and
satisfactory manner, but having de-
cided to enter regularly upon the min

AS Judge Herrick will enter upon the

1t was deemed advisable that the
change should be made under Repub-

for the Democratic brethren, of course.
We suppose, however, the new judge
will shed no tears, seeing we have a
good man for auditor and that he
holds his office by Republican votes,

THE INDIAN PROBLEM

The president seems to nave fallen
in with General Sheridan's views of
dealing with the Indians, and indeed
the Generals plan seems 10 meet with
popular favor.
General Sheridan does not write on
this Indian question either as a novice
or an autOcrat. In common with
nearly all our other distinguished SOL
diers the state nent of his views j.
marked by singular directness and
clearncs- and force, 50 that his posi-
ton on this question can not be mis-
understood. lie comes TO consider
alton OF the subject with an experience
and observation as long and thorough
as his service has been in the army.
He had first MS early life on
the frontier as q young soldier:
then FOR years he was in
command of the military division of
the Missouri, in whose several depart
ments there was about threc-fourths
of ali the Indians in the United States.
1t need scarcely be added that the
opinions of General Sherman on the
Indian question would at once be list
ened TO with close attention and re-
ceise earnest consideration on all
sides were even these ia is wanting.
The accommodations of his annual
report for 1885 contained among other
points that OF giving each Indian fam
lily 320 acr2s of land, locating them
upon that land, and that then the gov
ernment could condemn the re-
mqinder on each reservation and
buy it at $1-25 an acre, and
with the proceeds purchase govern
ment bonds 10 be held in trust by the
interior department. This in a nut
shell is the idea and suggestion made
by General Sheridan in hi annual re-
port and just reiterated and elabor-
ated. The friends of the Indian, out
side of the army, will now be listened
to on this subject with deep interest.
Some of them already affirm that the
position taken by General Sheridan
meets their views. They ana
lyze it briefly about like this: 1t
is one way, and very effective
way apparently, of solving the prob
lem of how to destroy the tribal
relation. The Indians would no
longer be dealt with as tribes but as
families and individuals. They would
no longer be roaming at certain sea-
sons over reservations as extensive as
some of the states, but they would be
compelled TO drop their nomadic hab-
its, settle on some designated spot,
and then the government would be
able TO deal with each family fairly
This tribal relation question and the
holding OF their lands in seyeralty are
two most important matters, which
these recommendations contemplate
disposin2 OF permanently.

Tine WABASH Alumni at Chicago.

Wabash College has good many alumni and
friends in Chicago, and last Friday evening they
gave first annual dinner. The object of the
alumni association in Chicago is to help the
college and each other, and right we'll was the
work begun at this banquet Such organizations
should be formed in other places, and especially
should Indianapolis contain one, for the alumni
and representatives of Wabash College there are
probably more numerous than in any other city.
The banquet at Chicago was an exceedingly ele-
CANT affair being served at Kinsley's, which, to
the Chicagoan. is what Delmonicos is to New
York. Flowers. music. and an elaborate pro-
gramme, both for the physical and intellectual
man, were provided. As the menu would only
ageravate those who had no share in it, 1t need
not be specially mentioned. 1t is sufficient to FAY
that all the wants of the inner man were attended
10, and then, with Judge Gresham as toast-master,
the post-prandial programme was begun. It is
not necessary to give the burden OF the re-
sponses, for the subjects are suggestive enough.
Post-prandial speeches are hard to make, and
are either dull or bright, but when good humor
and good-fellowship prevail they are always IN
terestine and the mildest wit is enthusiastically
received. The literary programme that which
was set off against blue points, green turtle and
iacksnipe, was as follows:
