Miss ALICE NJ. FLETCHER, of the
United States Interior Department
and the Peabody Museum, Cam
bridge, will contribute to The
Century in 1892 the results of her
studies of the American Indian in
series of illustratedpapers. They
will give an intimate account of
how the Indian actually lives and
thinks, his music, home life, war
fare, hunting customs, etc., and it
is the opinion of Professor Putnam,
of Harvard that they will undoubt-
edly be the most important papers
that have ever been published on
the subject, and that they will
give an entirely different idea Of
the Indian from that now COM
monty prevailing. The series will
be called "The Indians Side"

LABOR MOVEMENTS

Whatever may be the outcome
of the farmers movemont-wh wheth-
er it 90 to pieces or not-there is
one fact that will stand the test of
time, that is that the principles it
enunciates are indisputably right.
The political pressure from with
out and within its ranks may be so
great as to destroy its organization
for time but the great underly ing
principles that brought it into be-
ing will live when every one of its
enemies, as well as its advocates,
sleep in their graves. Equal
rights to all; special privileges to
none" is the embodiment of all
that is fair and right. Again, "In
things essential, unity; in all things
charity" is the quintessence of
justice between man and man.
Though the present movements
become 10 entangled with partisan
politics as to effectually bar its
usefulness for a time, it viii surely
rise again with renewed vigor.
Designing politicians have, in our
opinion, well-nigh captured the
movement throughout the states.
1t is utterly impossible to keep
them out of the order, and when
they get in it is like the leaven
hid in the meal, it leaveneth the
whole.
The history of all labor move.
ments in this country and in other
countries show that they have al
ways had within their ranks a
great many extremists. The NAL
contents of all organizations, both
sacred and secular, crowd them
selves into the labor movements
and thus thwart the ends for which
they were organized. The great
army of "cranks" that infest both
city and country naturally DRIFT
into the labor movement. The
Farmers Alliance has in its ranks
some Of the best blood as we'll as
some of the best talent of the
country, but it does not predomi-
nate and it has to cope with all the
anarchical and socialistic preju-
dices of class of men that make
nihilism study. Their fathers
before them for a generation have
taught them that the rich were OPP
pressing the poor and grinding
their very life out, which is tar
from being true. But TO return to
the subject Men who are real
reformers will one day be able to
control the discontented element
in their ranks. but their forte" is
not political action. Relief is not
to be had through politics alone.
II is more necessary TO teach men
how 10 farm in the most approved
manner than to teach them how to
vote and conduct a political cam
palgn. Good farmers, as a rule,
know how to vote. Also, the sue
cessful farmer does not need to be
told which is the best candidate.
Then why not try TO bring all up
TO a standard Of intelligence that
would insure an intelligent elec-
ton? No, the wrongs we complain
Of are not all political wrongs.
They are largely social wrongs
that must be corrected in the
homes. Boys should be taught
that labor is 'elevaiing aud highly
honorable, and that there is posi-
lively mo excellence without
