Tacoma Globe: "Ths attempt to secure the

In the first instance. II the law OF the state IL

sheriff of King county ought to have been able
TO suppress any threatened outbreak and pro-
tect life and property, without shifting the re-
sponsibility upon the National Guard. 1t does
not speak very well for our boasted civilization
that the sheriff OF one OF the largest counties in
the state feels compelled to turn his duty of en-
forcing the law over to the military such reports
are not the best kind of advertising Washington
can receive in the East Let the guard be re-
called and the outbreak, If any occurs, be met
by the sheriff, a. it should have been in the FIRST

Olympia Tribune: ''If half dozen blast fur

STURGEON.

Sturgeon, the famous English Baptist
preacher and philanthropist, is reported
to be on his deathbed. His death will
remove one of the remarkable men of the
time.
He came of preacher stock, his father
and grandfather having been pastors OF
Independent churches. As early as 1861,
when but q years old, Sturgeon preached
to regular congregation of $500
persons. Some of his sermons,
homely in style and pungent in matter,
attained circulation of $50, 900 copies. In
connection with his church he founded
and maintained missions, educational,
missionary and philanthropic agencies,
including pastors college, an orphanage
which supports 500 children, besides aims
houses and day schools. Sturgeon of
late years has preached to not less
than 10000 persons every Sunday. His
success, like that of our own evangelist,
Moody, has been due to his intense earn
estness and sincerity, assisted by his SIM
pie, idiomatic language and his impressive
delivery. Mr. Sturgeon has been great
and useful worker for righteousness, of
exceptional genius both for preaching and
for organization.

,utwntted or cheated, he has had to

outwltted or cheated, he has had to
"travel."
This is the argument Of the moral
casuits who defend the s'blood and iron
policy" by which civilization has re-
deemed this country from Maine to WASH
ington from the occupation Of the Indian.
The defense is not only plausible, but
It is sound TO this degree that
it is not possible for the state to carry out
in all its relations literally the precepts Of
Christ. Even the late Bishop Magee of
the English church admitted that q state
which attempted this could not exist for
week, and il IL were possible TO do this the
result would be perfectly intolerable
tyranny. The bishop might have gone
further and said that man could not con-
duct successfully any business of conse-
quence in this world on the platform of
the Sermon on the Mount; the Golden
Rule and all the other famous precepts OF
Christ; If he did attempt 1t he would
surely go to heaven by way Of the court OF
insolvency.
Granting that the "blood and iron" policy
enforced against the Indian was originally
necessary TO the rapid and certain re-
placement Of barbarism by civilization,
nevertheless this concession viii not
justify or at all excuse the application of
the same policy today by our completely
triumphant and secure civilization against
the remnants of the Indian tribes we
have conquered, dispossessed and well
nigh exterminated in the process. As the
wards of the government, the Indians de-
serve to be decently protected in their
treaty rights against all intruders.
This is the least we can do for
race that has long since ceased to seriously
oppose or interfere with our national prog
ress. In spite of missionaries, government
rations, agency schools and Quaker ladies,
the Indian is doing little beyond beating
funeral marches to the grave. That is the
not remote destination of all his race and in
equity we are bound not to make his de-
scent wantonly rapid and painful by allow
ing white marauders to illegally harass
him by stealing his lands and marrying his
focks and herds. The Indian has at least
the right in all humanity to Ego on with
his dying" without any illegal Interrupt
ton on the part of white savages.

Work FOE THE COUNCIL.

There seems, on the part of the city
council, failure to understand that the
city charter il not complete in itself, that
1t requires . considerable body Of ordi-
nances to put many of its wisess provisions
into effect. Upon the organization of the
city government under the charter there
wss . situation precisely parallel with the
situation of the state government when it
came into existence under the enabling
oct. II was the duty of the council,
~ IL was Of the FIRST legislature, to complete
and give effect to the basic law by supple
mentary legislation. This the council has
ntterly failed to do; and more uncertain,
conflicting and inadequate system of city
laws than the present ordinances of the
city Of Seattle could not be conceived. 1t
Il, in fact. confused tumble, wholly
deficient for the practical uses of city gov
srnment.
What Is needed il for the council to set
Itself TO the task of completing by enact
ment the work Of the charter-makers. The
situation presents no problems; all that is
Necessary is . few weeks of industry de-
voted to painstaking constructive legisla-
ton. Suggestions for all that is required
may be found in the charter itself.
