GENUINE TNDT4N REFORM.

The possibility of an Indian uprising has
brought out the usual amount OF nonsense con-
corning the alleged brutality of the Govern
ment i'm dealing with the Indians. The oft
told story of how we are starving them. aban-
doning them to hunger and cold. and leaving
them naked and shelterless, is repeated with
pitiful variations. All this is ridiculOusy false
and harmful. The proper charge to bring
against the Government is neglect of very
different kind. So far from failing to provide
for their material welfare. we have stuffed them
with beef and Overburdened them with blankets.
We havo spent hundreds OF thousands of dol
lars building cottages for them. only to see them
pitch their tepees conveniently by and burn
down our costly cottages for camp fires. At
no time has the Government been properly
chargeable with failure to furnish food, cloth
ing and shelter for its Indian wards. The
trouble is that having done that it has con-
sidered its duty discharged, and has left them
idle on vast reservations to pursue their semi
savage habits. IL has put premium on
vagrancy Ii has removed every motive for
self -exertion, every opportunity for employ
ment IL has cOrralled a lot of creatures. ig-
nOrant and more or less savage, the greater
part OF whom still worship rocks and cotton
wood trees, whose social system rests on the
belief that all labor is degrading and that a
man should be warrior in a vast empty
wilderness, where they arc taught that the
land is theirs in common, but no foot OF il
Obtainable as personal property, and that they
have 10 need to spend their time procuring the
necessaries of life, since the Government will
give them for nothing all that they need of
| food. clothing and shelter.
This. until recently, has been the policy of
| the Government, and, indeed, il is still largely
pursued. The accusation that we have neg
lected the Indians is, therefore, particularly

HORSE SHOW AND RACECOURSE.

The new Madison Square Garden was crowd
ed last week with great throngs of admirers OF
fine horsefesh, who heartily expressed their
admiration of the animals there on exhibition.
New York's "lesurc class" was present in
force. and If the roll OF the -Four Hundred had
been called, few gaps in the ranks would have
been found. Not only were the wealthy idlers
there in troops. but the busy rich. the g Little
Brothers OF the Rich" and tens Of thousands
of people Of moderate means as well, visited
the Garden at various times in the week all
in sympathy in one thing at least, the pleas
ure and satisfaction which they felt in gazing
upon handsome horses whether in repose or in
action. 1t was fashionable festival in its
way, and popular passion, too, for the time.
The impressive success OF the Horse Show
proves that New Workers and visitors to New
York are as fond of horses as at any time in the
past. Why. then, is it that Fashion has 50
largely deserted the racetrack?
