Tho Indian Sign Language.

Although there are 73 different language
and about 500 dialects spoken by the Alncri-
can Indians, the sign language is equally
understood by all the tribes Chief Natchez,
of the Piute tribe, is an adept in the sign
language In Washington city some years
ago he held consultation by signs with the
best experts In which he gave an account Of
the troubles existing at that timo with some
bands of renegade Indians up near the Ore
gon line, describing a trip he made to the
camp of the hostilss. Natchez enjoys the al
most solitary honor of having had his talk
published in the government reports Oh these
matters, with full explanation of every sign
he used in conveying tho intelligence sought
from him. He was highly spoken of by gov
eminent experts tor his great knowledge of
and readiness in the Indian sign language

And For The Democracy.
The Sun believes that the campaign for
the election of Democratic Congress in
1890 and Democratic President in 1892
should begin on or about the fourth of next
March. The San will be OH hand at the be-
ginning and until the end of the most inter
esting and important political conflict since
the war, doing its honest utmost, as ever, to
secure the triumph of the Democratic party
and the permanent supremacy of the princi-
pies held Ivy Jefferson, jackson, and Tilden.
The great fact of the year is the return to
absolute power of the common enemy of all
good Dcmocrats-thc political organization
for whose overthrow the SIN fought tor tif
teen years, the memorable years of Grant
and the Fraud Hayes, and Garfield and Ar
thur.
1t is the same old enemy that Democrats
now confront, and he will be intrcnchcd in
the same strong position, II has been CARR

itary and civic parade which followed
was OF mons,ious proportions, the
end OF winch passed the inaugural
stand jus, as the shades OF night were
ihickening. In the evening the custom
AIRY inaugural ball concluded the cere-
monies, and II alone has never before
