Omaha daily bee., 1889-01-23
THE RILL SIGNED

Yesterday the president signed the
bill providing a government building
for Omaha. 1t had been supposed by
some that Mr.. Cleveland would either
neglect or refuse to do this. But he
could not have d]isapproved the measure
without showing a prejudice against
this state and city, Us other bills of a
similar nature had already received his
signature. Nevertheless Omaha will
appreciate this graciou act of Mr..
Cleveland's. There had been so much
talk and so much delay that the general
patience was becoming exhausted.
A very liberal slice of the %appropria-
ton is for the purchase Of the site. If
the selection shall not be hampered by
any sharkish efforts to unload real es-
tate, the sum is ample forthe purchase of
eligible ground and plenty of it. Hap
PLY the selection is beyond the reach
of ordinary schemers. 1t will be made
by impartial representatives Of the gov
ernment and the choice must be sane
toned by officials who have no possible
local interests. AS a matter of course
the ''best site in Omaha" will be as
abundant as b~lackberries.
Nebraska's forces at Washington
merit congratulations for the action they
have taken in relation to this measure
from the first. Senators Henderson and
Paddock and Congressman McShane
worked in unison to secure the appro-
priation. There was no partisan flavor
in the efforts o. any of them. In the
beginning they worked against many
difficulties, and rs they progressed
battled with opposition from more than
one source. They made a sturdy fight,
and won.
Omaha daily bee., 1889-01-23

extreme OF paterualism in dealing with
the Indians, has proven the greatest
obstacle in the way OF the settlement Of
the vexed question. For a great many
years their theories have been
kept in practice, but the results
are far short OF what they
promised. Certain Indians have in
deed made progress, but much the
larger number still remain without i'm
provement-an idle, immoral, ignorant,
unambitious, and altogether worthless
mass of humanity, surrounded by the
grandest and most aspiring civilization
in the world.
The unquestionable failure Of the
policy of the past to achieve all that
was expected of it, aud the obvious fact
that national progress demands a
change, appear to nave had an effect
upon the eastern philanthropists. They
are coming to see their mistake, and
the addresses delivered at the last
meeting of the board show a notable ad-
vance in the sentiments of these people
in the direction of more practical and
stalwart methods for civilizing the In
dian. They virtually confess the hope
lessuess of waiting for the red man to
develop n sclf-respect that would lead
him to push forward in the race of civil
%izatlon, and have accepted the conclu-
sion which experience compcls, that
whatever is lone to improve the con
dition Of the Indians and subject them
to the laws and usages of civilization
must be done without waiting for their
consent. Having reached this change
of attitude, it is understood that any
fair and just litigation which
congress may adopt for the In
dians will have the approval of these
eastern influences. They are prepared
to conccde that this great government,
with the interests of sixty million peo-
pie to care for, may properly determine
what policy it shall pursue with respect
to n few thousand Indians.
Everybody desires hat the Indian
shall be treated justly. The belief that
has prevailed in the east that the peo-
pie of the west would justify the harsh
est and most unfair policy toward the
Indians has been wholly unwarranted.
DuJ blcy utNC lttTUcu lEOH dDuiuilb
experience what was necessary to be
done In order to improve and elevate
the Indian, and therefore could not
sympathize with the theories of the
eastern se~ntimentallsts. They know
the Indian nature and disposition as
these are exhibited in daily life, rather
thar as they are portrayed in romance,
and they fall far short of being admira-
able. Now that the eyes of the eastern
influences are opening to the facts,
and opinion there is coming into unison
with that Of the west regarding IN In-
dian policy, the prospect for the settle
ment of the perpleXing question and it's
final removal from the field of coutro-
versy has very greatly improved. The
fact will be heartily welcomed by the
people Of the west.

NEBRASKA At PARIS.

The determination of the Omaha
board of trade to refer the proposition
of erecting a triumphal arch in Ne
braska grain at the Paris exposition to
the state board of agriculture was per-
haps the proper course to follow. The
enterprise is to be the work Of the state
of Nebraska and not OF any one locality.
For hat reason it might excite the
jealousy of some cities and districts if
any one city should undertake the pro-
ject. There a therefore be no obiec-
tions raised to placing the whole matter
in the hands of the state board of agri-
culture which made SO great a success
Of the Nebraska exhibit at New Orleans.
IL the state board looks favorable upon
the proposition no time should be lost
in bringing the scheme Immediately
before the boards of trade, the
agricultural societies and other bodies
Interested in the movement through
the state who will corporate with the
state board OF agriculture in raising the
necessary funds. AS the exposition
opens in May, immediate action is
necessary. The board should make in
quiries as to the estimated cost Of erect
ing the structure and the expenses con-
nected with its proper maintenance.
The permission Of the exposition
authorities at Paris should be obtained
for the novel exhibit Of Nebraska's
products, and steps should be taken to
raise the necessary funds. The enter
prise, If carried out properly, will UNI
doubleday excite curiosity, as well as
comment favorable to u state. Every
newspaper in America and in Europe
will speak OF the novel exhibit made by
Nebraska. The millions OF visitors at
tracted to the exposition will give more
than a passing glance to the arc de
triomphe built of corn. And as an adj
vertisement to Nebraka the enterprise
will be of incalculable value and cannot
fail to benefit our state in more ways
than one.
