II is remarkable that even with the aid OF

tact and nerve are no longer strong enough TO
hold the Indians il will be because they are
not amenablc to processes Of reason. lie has
done the best that any man could do. He
knows his business, and the President has left
him TO pursue his OWE methods. lie has made
no mistakes. The Indians are completely sur
rounded and if they bring on a general conflict
il cannot be long one. Comparatively speak
ing they have 10 power for harm. That is TO
say they could be utterly beaten at any mo-
ment They derive their only advantage from
their very weakness. The policy Of delay and
Cancellation, wise and proper though it may be,
gives individual bands Of h0stiles an opp0r-
| tunity TO commit seriously offensive acts with
something like impunity for so long aS there
is prospect Of preventing a general outbreak
occasional acts Of depreciation will not be ade-
oIately punished. What the effect Of this pol
lev will be. whether it will encourage the In
dianS to assume a generally hostile attitude or
incline them 20 peace, is to be decided only by
the experiment.
The fight at Wounded Knee, deplorabe Us it

Sioux Nation They proceeded with all pos

was taken, and it is an omnWis indication OF
the temper Of the Indians that, surrounded as
they were by a command lar outnumberng
their little band. they should have entered upon
a resistance that they must have known to he
futile and suicidal. This is the most serious
aspect Of the situation, for if it is "A far cx-

peace that we can give them.
1t is noteworthy that since the Indians have
been actually engaging in hostile enterprises

Outside of the Treasury and all the National
banks the official reports prove that the cllcu-
ation was $40 IL per capita, while Just three
hundred millions, or about ~ so per capita,
was in the banks What room is there for dis
puting any of these figures? From the day the
silver coinage began, in 1873, the amount OF
standard dollars coined and OF certificates issued
against them and the amount OF such coins
and certificates held in the Treasury, have
been publicly stated every week and month,
and there has been no possibility of deception
about il. The amount of legal tender notes

peared grim defiance has taken its place, and
the Indians are contending not for supeHti-
ton, but for their integrity as tribe, their
system and their rights under the Black HlilS
Treaty This seems to prove what THE 1RlB-
UNE has frequently alleged, that so far as the
principa war-chiefs are concerned the Messiah
business was only means to an end. Their
object was to arouse their people. to get them
keyed up to revolt. They took the quickest
and easiest method-by operating upon their
emotions and SupcrStftiOnS first, and then on
their prcudiccS. 1t was a wcll-conSldercd plan
and if General Miles can discover way to undo
the work that the savage faction has done
without fearful sacrifice of life he Will be
entitled to the highest praise.
