Making Soldiers of Red Men

Order is said to be /" the first law O
| heaven, cleanliness is akin to god
liness," and industry is the mother
of virtue"
Acting on these maxims, in 1890, a
practical Republican Secretary OF
War conceived the idea that the true
way to make an Indian into a good
citizen is to first make soldier OF
him, thus teaching him to be clean.
orderly and Industrious.
To do ordinary work, to obey or
binary laws and regulations, to an
Indian seems degradation worthy
only a squaw. But he is by instinct
and habit a soldier, and the work of
soldiers, he thinks, manly. Taught
to care for his horse, his arms, his
uniform, his quarters, to be prompt,
orderly, and obedient as a soldier
who can doubt that the Indian has
made long stride toward citizen
snip? Many companies of the red
men have been enlisted and are doing
good service, and the work is still
progressing.

Maple Sugar Bounty.
WORK BEING DONE BY CONGRESSMAN
POWERS.

WORK BEING DONE BY CONGRESSMAN
POWERS.
WASHINGTON, March 2.-The boun-
ty to be paid on maple sugar will
represent less than fifth of the pro-
duction. The total production of
the United States is estimated at
more than 100000 and the ap-
Plications for bounty call for only
about 100000 pounds. 1t is
possible that the payments will fall
below the amount estimated by the
producers, as in the case of cane
sugar.
One of the great sources of profit
IN regard to maple sugar is getting
1T early upon the market, and this
profit is lost by the delays involved
an official tests and certificates. The
difference in price is fully equal to the
bounty, and it will not be surpris-
ing If some even of those producers
who have applied for the bounty de-
eide to let it go for the sake ofgettine
their product promptly on the market.
Inc bounty system is not proving
snch benefit to maple sugar pro
dHcers as Morrill, and Edmunds ex-
peeted. If Plumb we're alive he
would probably call attention to this.
The result is that where 81 900, 900
might have been distributed among
the farmers if they had cared for it,
hardly more than one-tenth of the
amount will be actually paid out of
the treasury.
Representative Powers, who repre-
sents the sugar growing district of
Vermont, has attempted to provide
a more substantial benefit to the
maple sugar men by proposing a
duty of four cents per pound upon
foreign maple sugar imported into
the United States, and 20 cents a
gallon on maple syrup.
He proposed this in lieu of the
bounty, and believed that it would be
much more effective in benefiting the
sugar producer, because it would en-
able him to sell his sugar two or
three cents higher than he can do
now.
Powers believes that a duty might
fairly be imposed upon maple sugar.
Of the bounty system were adhered
to in regard to the ordinary sugar of
commerce. Maple sugar he consid-
ers luxury, fairly subject to high
taxation, and an American product
justly entitled to protection while the
present tariff system has been wiped |
OH the statute books. and mamie |
sugar would be safer with a duty as
we'll as more profitable to its produc-
erS, than under the present cumher- |
some system of bounties.
