The WhccIbarrow Bill.

The bill designating half dozen
towns in the stute us places for holding
terms of the United States court is liza
bic to die in the conference committee.
1t was at best a questionable measure,
and Judge Dundy undoubtedly was cor
rect in objecting to the U. 5.
court being put on wheels and
trundled around from town TO
town. The recent limit placed upon
the jurisdiction OF United States courts
by which all cases involving less than
$1,000 are barred out, would practically
make II farce out OF sessions in the in
terror towns. The court would convene
and nine times out Of ten would have to
adjourn for want of business. The
truth of the matter is that this scheme
has been gotten up by congr essmen
solely for political capital. 1t would be
much more appropriate to hold state
supreme court sessions in each of the
twenty judicial districts of the state
than to have the federal court con-
stantly on wheelbarrow.

un,uii,inn Indians.

II is evident from what has thus far
transpired that it is going to be most
laborious and difficult task TO induce the
necessary thrcc-fourths Of the Sioux In
dian5 to accept the treaty for opening
their reservation. The council of nearly
five thousand braves held at Fort Yates
the day before the arrival OF the COM
mission was almost unanimous in APP
proving the attitude of opposition tothe
treaty taken by all the chiefs but one
who addressed them, and was especially
enthusiastic in endorsing the
sentiments expressed by the princi-
pal orator, Chief Gall. The
argument of this chief, who is
described as the finest living Indian
orator and of great influence, was that
the Sioux had been so many times de-
ceived by the promises OF the white
man that it would be unwise for them
TO accept any new assurances. He pre-
scnted in vigorous terms the hardships
to which the Indians had been brought
in the past by the betrayal of their conf
dence, and declared that they could not
accept land apart-thati is, in severalty-
as provided for in the act. Other chiefs
spoke in a similar strain, and all such
evidently touched n chord OF feeling
that permeated the entire assemblage.
1t is true this council comprised but a
fraction OF the Sioux nation, perhaps
not more than one-slxth OF the whole
number, but there is good reason to be-
lieve that it expressed a sentiment
which is very general throughout the
nation.
II was evidently a mistake to have de-
layed so long in appointing the commits
sion. 1t gave Sitting Bull and other
chiefs who were known to be hostile to
opening the reservation all the oppor-
tunity they required to work up senti-
ment against the project, and it is plain
that they have taken full advantage of
the opportunity. Could the commission
provided for have gone to work
promptly after the passage of the bill a
vast amount of prejudice against
that measure that will now have
to be overcome would not have been en-
countercd, and what there was would
have been more easily removed. But
the chiefs, aided by whites who are in
| tercsted in having the reservation re-
| main as it is, have had ample time in
which to plant widely and deeply the
sentiment of hostility to the proposed
arrangement, and the result of their
labors will not be easily overcome if it
| shall be found possible to do 80 at all.
The proposed treaty is entirely just in
its terms, and its acceptance would un-
| questionably be to the ultimate advan-
tage of the Indians, but it is manife,tly
| going to be no easy task to convince
| them of this.
Omaha daily bee., 1888-07-26

THE mortuary stat istics of Chicagofor
the past year show that the ratio of
deaths to population was about twenty
one in one thousand, which is, per-
haps,n says the Herald of that city,
clover than any other city in the coun-
try" The healthfulness of city can
not be correctly determined from the
vital statistics of single year, but Chi
cago may be very we'll satisfied with the
showing for the past year. The record, E,
however, is doubtless surpassed by many
other cities, and among them Omaha,
whose ratio of deaths to population last
year was only about twelve in one
thousand. We do not hesitate to say,
without the qualifying adverb, per
haps," that there is not more health
full city in the country than Omaha, and
it is improving in this respect as in all
others.
