and dreadful situation in the Indian
country. Let the Indians be paid
the money that is due them;
let the badly needed supplies
be sent out to them at once, as pledg-
ed; and let land be melted out in sew
crafty. Let fraud and incompetence
give place to integrity and ability;
let corrupt and dishonest agents
be supplanted by honest and reliable
ones; do away with the present odious
system of paying political debts at
the expense of the Indians. Quit
robbing the Indians, and then send
ing troops to kill men, women and
children because the poor creatures
will not endure their wrongs in ST.
lence. 1t is not enough that good
honest and competent men and wo-
men be sent out to take charge of the
agencies, schools, ect but they should
be kept there during good behavior
and removed only for proper cause.
1t is difficult for the Indian to make
much progress so long as those who
have worked among them are dismiss
ed to make place for new set of Off
cials every four years, however
honest and worthy, and hence we
believe that civil service rules should
apply to the appointment of all Off
Gals and teachers among the Indians.
Congress should grant the proper ap-
preparations for Indian education
and for purchasing seeds and farm
ing implements for the Indians on
the reservations so as to give them
start towards being self-supporting.
When these things are done, an era
of prosperity, progress, content and
peace will settle upon the Indians.
The people all over the country
should petition Congress and the
President to inaugurate, as speedy
as possible, these greatly needed re-
forms.

A CONTRAST.

Is there any hope that this great
nation will ever deal honestly and
reasonably with the Indian question?
We know of no more ignoble or hui
initiating contrast than that of last
Wednesday. While the five heroic
Indian policemen, who gave up their
lives for the nation in the attempt to
arrest Sitting Bull and restore order
on the frontier, were being buried
with military honors from Fort Yates,
the bill appropriating money for the
Just claims of the Sisseton and Wah-
peton indians was laid over at Wash
ington in order to give member OPP
posed to it full time to prepare for
the expression of his ideas. No clear
er case than that of the these Indians
ever came before the government.
They have failed to receive the sums
due and promised to them until they
have been reduced to absolute desti-
tuition. If they had been hostiles they
would have received ample rations
and the coddling that they could de-
sire. But it is their misfortune, which
our system seems to hold a crime, to
have been faithful to the govern
ment. They have never betrayed it.
They have refused to join in any
movement against it. They have
stood Loyalty as the friends of the
white man. And for that sin they
are left to starve.
There is no question of fact in the
matter. The chief of these Indians
has sent to the authorities the pathet-
ic message, "My people are starv-
ing" Is it true? They are starving,
not because they are idle and disso-
lutte, but because they have contided
in the solemn promise of the nation
to provide for them, and the promise
is unfulflled. The Sisseton agent
has confirmed their statement in
every particular, and asked, in the
name of justice and humanity, for
immediate relief; not gratuity, but |
the mere payment of moneys over
due. The Indian commissioner at
affirms and ratities every |
There is no difference of
opinion and no question as to facts |
But the appropriation
thinks that present dis
tress should be removed only.at the
price of refusing to pay to these In
dians their back annuities, and the
bill must lie over until there is time
to ventilate that question in debate.
1t is of piece with our whole outra-
geous dealing with the Indian.
The Pioneer Press will not be ac-
cused of sentimentality in discuss

ing our Indian relations. 1t has been
Disguised enough, Heaven knows,
with the weak and silly paltering
that honors cruel brutes like Sitting
Bull until they can do mischief that
costs the country thousands of dol
lars and the lives of many brave men,
-, red and white. And yet even this is
less Infamous than the deliberate
| breaking of pledges that leaves to
the friendly Indian no choice but
starvation or revolt. IF the Sissetons
and Wahpetons were to rise Just now
in order that they might get food for
themselves and their families, we
should presently NOW them down
with Gatlings, and bury, with all the
honors Of war, those of their leaders
who remained faithful to the United
States and turned Their arms against
their destitute and dying kinsmen.
But when they ask Of us the means
of life, pledged by us and denied to
them, when they need not royal hon.
ors in death but the wherewith to
sustain their miserable lives, we are
too busy to attend to it. They can
wait. 1t is so much easier for them
to die Of starvation than for a Con-
gresham to miss the chance of an
objection or the glory of speech.
The honest men Of the country are
weary and sick at heart with this .
whole Indian scandal, of which our
treatment of these friendly and loyal
people is a most infamous item. 1t |
would be better for the Indian, it
would be more creditable to us, to |
order the military now in the field to
march to the Sisseton agency and
there quietly murder every Indian
waiting for food denied and money
due them, than to keep up this ghast-
ly farce. From beginning to end it
has been the greatest Of misfortunes
to the Indian to keep honorably his
obligations with this government.
Fidelity has been the signal for neg
lect, for justice, for the decree of
starvation; just as cruelty and treach-
cry have won the consideration that
an AFFECT nature yields to qualities
like these. In the light of the hero
ic devotion of these Indians who
have helped to remove the most dan
gerous of their race, laying down
their own lives with single-hearted
and ready devotion, the further de-
lay Of the Sisseton and Wahpeton
bill will be an indelible disgrace and
the fOulest of crimes.

The Census OF Canad, Was Not an Easy
Thing to Take.

AnO ~cAADuS OL was MOI an EASY
Thing to Take.
According to the census bulletin pre-
sented to the dominion parliament there
was good deal of hard work about
taking the Canadian census, says tho
Chicago Herald. 1.-THE work of taking
the census of Canada has difficulties PC
culiar to the country which, apart from
the system adopted, cause delay in OBJ
tanning the returns from cnulncrators.
In dcnscly populated countries, under
tho de facto system, tho distribution
and collection of the schedules is ac-
complishcd in n few days. In England
10000 cnumcrators obtain the house
holders schedules in day or two,
each having to collect IN average of TOO
schedules. The vast population of
British India, 2S4, 750, 900 people, was
taken by nearly 100000 cnumerators
In twenty-five days.
I'm Canada the staff of cnumerators
numbers 4,3oo persons. These had to
traverse the immense area of Canada
by every imaginable method of locomo-
ton. A steamer with cuuul orators on
board travcrscd the deep indcats of the
Pacific coast line as far rs Alaska,
enumcratc the people. Pack horses
were required in the mountain region
of the same province to carry the Gnu
merators and their portfolios through
the valleys which run along tha hills of
the rockies. Dog trains were neces-
sity in Saskatchewan.

Ontario and Quebec canoe expedition
started from the hcadwGt2rs of the
Licrve river to go by lake and river and
portagcs to Albany river ut James bay.
Camping outfits and canoes were need
ed to enable the cuumcrators to take
the population in the Nipissing district,
Just beyond the height of land The
enumcrators in Mlnatoba had now to
foot it, now to 60 by blackboard, and
now by boat, and in one instance the

own life by staying and eating his

to be taken by slow and toiIsomc pedcs-
trianism.
For the north shore of the Gulf Of
