the United States during the civil war and 10
now suffering from wounds or disease having an
origin in the service and the line of duty. Two
of three necessary facts, viz muster and disa-
biity, are usually susceptible of easy proof; but
the third, origin in the service, is often difficult
and in many deserving cases imp ssible to estab-
Ish. That very many of those who endured the
hardships OF our most bloody and arduous
campaigns are now disabled from
diseases that had a real, not traceable origin in
service, we do not doubt; besides, there is an
served on enlistment of the three full years and
OF re-enlisted veterans, who added a fourth year
OF serylce, who escaped the casualties of battles
ready for any detail, who were in every battle
line OF their command, and We're mustered out
in sound health, and have, since the close OF the
and Independent spirit, the contests OF
civil life, been overcome by disease or
casualty. am not unaware that the
nual expenditure, neither am deferred by that
TACT from recommending that congress grant a
pension to such honorably discharged soldiers
and sailors OF the civil war as having
RENDERED SUBSTANTIAL SERVICE
during the war, are now dependent upon their
own labor for a maintenance, and by disease or
casualty are mcapactated from earning it.
Many Of the men who would be included in this
form OF relief are now dependent upon public
aid, and it does not, in my Judgment, consist
with the national honor that they shall con
criminately to paupers, instead OF Upon the
special and generous provision Of the
nation they served 50 calamity and
sure, very generally approve such legislation
and am equally sure that the survivors OF the
Union army and navy will feel a grateful sense of
relief when this worthy and suffering class of
their comrades is fairly cared for There is some
manifest inequalities in the existing law that
should be remedied To some of these the secre-
tary of the interior has called attention. 1t is
gratifying to be able to state the adoption
OF new and better methods in the war depart
ment; the calls of the pension Office for ilaforma-
tlon as to the military and hospital records OF
pension claimants are now promptly answered,
and the Injurious and veNactious delays that
have heretofore occurred are entirely avoided.
This Will greatly facilitate the adjustment OF all
pending claims.

Average, Length of Life.

HUMAN life is estimated to have
heightened twenty-five per cent. dur
ing the past half-eentury. 1.-The av-
erage human; life in Rome, under
Caesar, was eighteen years" says Dr.
Todd of Georgia, nov it is forty. The
average in France fifty years ago was
twenty eight, and the mean duration
in 1887 was 45K years. In Geneva
during the thirteenth century, gen
Grafton played it's part upon the
stage and disappeared in fourteen
years; now the drama requires forty
years before the curtain falls. During
the golden reign OF good Queen Bess,
in London and all the large cities OF
merry old England, fifty out ofevery
10000 paid the last debt to nature
yearly, which means, instead ofthree
score and ten, they averaged but one
score: Now, in the city of London,
the average is forty-seven years"

INDIAN LANDS.
Recent Acquisition by the Government of
Large Reservations.

Large Reservations.
The report of the secretary OF the interior ex-
hibits the transactions of the government with
the Indian tribes. Substantial progress. has
been made in the education Of the children of
school age and in the allotment of lands to
adult Indians. 1t is to- be regretted that the
policy of breaking up the tribal relation and of
dealing with the Indian as an individual did not
appear earlier in our legislation. Large reserva-
tions held in common and the maintenance OF
the authority OF the chiefs and head men have
deprived the individual of every incentive to the
exercise of thrift, and the annuity has contrib
state OF confirmed pauperism. Dun treaty stip-
ulations should be observed with. fidelity and
our legislature should be highly considerate OF the
best interests of an ignorant and helpless peo-.
pie. The reservations are now generally sur
rounded by white settlements. We can no,
longer push the Indian into the wilderness. and
push him upward into the state of self-sup-
porting and responsible citizen. For the adult
the first step is to locate him upon q
him in school school attendance should be
promoted by every moral agency, and those
failing should be compelled. The national
and should be multiplied and as far as possible
should be SO organized and conducted as to fa-
ciitate the transfer of the schools to the states
or territories in which they are located, when
citizenship and have become otherwise fitted for
such q transfer. This condition of things will
be attained slowly but it will be hastened by
keeping it in mind, and in the meantime that
cooperation between the government and the
mission schools, which has wrought much good.
should be cordially and impartialy sustained.
The last congress enacted two distinct laws re-
lating to negotiations with
THE SIOUX INDIANS OF DAKOTA
for arelinq uishment of a portion of their lands
to the United States and fori dividing the re-
mainder into separate reservations. Both were

MolaSses their Favorite Bev-

From Harper's Monthly

The country Republic Of olumbia)
from Cucuta to- Bogotais Uhickly set
tied with Important towns; trade is
very active;. provisions, principally
wheat and maize, bread, pork and
beef, potatoes. iuca and many excel
lent grains, are abundant. The ia
vorite beverage in the hot valleys is
a sour-sweet liquor made from mo-
lasses mixed with water, which re-
freshes, without being injurious to
health. On the table-lands thel lower
classes literally degrade themselves
to the level of the brute by the use of
a distasteful beverage called china,
made from Indian corn and the mo-
lasses first extracted from the sugar
cane. This beverage not only pro-
duces, by it's long continued orexces-
sive use, a stupefaction of the facul-
ties, but also gives rise in time to the
disease in Italy as pelambria.

CANADIAN INTERESTS,
Mention of the Fisheries Question and
New Extradition Treaty.

Mention of the Fisheries Question and
New Extradition Treaty.
The questions which have arisen during the
past few years between Great Britain and the
United States are in allegiance or in course Of
adjustment. On the part of the government of
the Dominion of Canada an effort has been APP
parent during the season just ended to admins
ter the laws and regulations applicable to the
fisheries with as little occasion for friction as
was possible, and the temperate represen tations
of this government in respect of cases of undue
hardship or of harsh interpretations have been
i'll most cases met with measures of transit
tory relief. 1t is trusted that the attainment
OF our just rights under existing tire aties and in
virtue OF the concurrent legislation Of the two
contiguous countries will not be long deferred
and that all existing causes of difference may be
equitably adjusted. l recommend that provis-
ion be made by an international agreement for
vertically marking theiwater boundary between
the United States and Canada in the narrow
tional line therein traced by the north
western boundary survey years ago
in not in all cases readily ascertainable
for the settlement OF jurisdictional questions
A just and acceptable enlargement Of the list Of
offenses for which extradition may be claimed
and granted is most desirable between this
country and Great Britain. The territory of
neither should become a secure harbor for the
evil-doers of the other through any avoidable
shortening i'll this regard. new treaty on
this subject between the two powers has been
recently negotiated, and will soon be laid before

Result of the Conference Recently Held

Result of the Conference Recently Held
in Berlin.
The present state Of affairs in respect to the
Samoan Islands is encouraging. The conference
which was held i'll this city in the summer OF
1887 between the representatives OF the United
States, Germany and Great Britain has been adj
journed because of the persistent divergence OF
views which was developed in it's deliberations
The subsequent course OF events in the islands
gave rise to questions of a serious character
On the 18th OF February last the German minis
ter at this capital, in behalf OF his gov.
eminent, proposed resumption of
the conference at Berlin. This PROPOSE
ton was accepted. as congress in February
last was informed. Pursuant to the under
standing thus reached, commissioners were APP
pointed by me, by and with the advice and CON
sent OF the senate, who proceeded to Berlin,
where the conference was renewed. The deliber-
lions extended through several weeks and re-
suited in the conclusion Of treaty which will
be submitted the senate for it's approval. I
trust that the efforts which have been made to
effect an adjustment OF this question will be pro-
ductlve OF the permanent establishment of law

-FOUR NEW STATES.
An Interesting Event Occurring During
the Present Administration.

An Interesting Event Occurring During
the Present Administration.
The advent offour new states-South Dakata,
North Dakota, Montana and Washington-into
the union under the constitution in the same
month and the admission of their duly chosen
representatives to our national congress at the
same session is an event as unexampled as it is
interesting. The ratification of the votes cast
and OF the constitutions adopted in
required by the eighth section of the act of Feb.
", 1889, by the governors OF said territories
respectively. Having, after a careful eXamina-
ton, found that the several constitutions and
governments were republican in form and not
repugnant to the constitution of the United
States; that all the provisions of the act of con-
gress had been complied with, and that major
1ty OF votes cast i'll each of said proposed states
were in favorng of adopting the constitution
submitted therein, didSO declare, byaSeparate
proclamation as 80 each, to North Dakota
and South Dakota on Saturday, Nov. g as to
Montana on Friday, Nov. s, and as to Wash
lngton on Monday, Nov. II. Each OF these
states has within it resources the development
OF which will employ the energies Of and yield
comfortable subsistence to a great population.
The smallest of these new Arlington
stands twelfth, and the Observation-Disclosures
third among the AZ in area. The people of these
states are already well trained, intelligent and
patriotic American citizens having commonnter-
ests and sympathies with those of the older
states, and common purpose to defend the in
tegrity OF and uphold the honor OF the nation
