Mr.. Meeker and the Utes.
Special Correspondence of the WORLD
MEEKER, CoLo., June %, 1893

MEEKER, COLO., June %, 1898.
In 1879 N. G. Meeker was acting as
government Indian agent for the north
ern Utes at the White River agency
near what is now the town of Meeker in
Rio Blanco county, Colorado.
An Indian agent is an individual sent
out by the Interior department for the
purpose of disbursing certain goods,
supplies etc, to the Indians in fulfllment
of some previous contract with the var
ious Indian nations.
For this trouble and expense the gov
ernment has invariably received a valu-
able consideration.
The ethics of the last several centuries
has acknowledged that either discovery,
priority of settlement or purchase con-
stituted valid title to land.
Under priority of settlement the
Indians had most undisputed and un-
deniably strong title to the land where
he had hunted, fought and reared his
offspring for so many generations.
It may be remarked that the govern
ment has ever been actuated in its
treatment of Indians by a spirit of policy
rather than Justice. The strong and
warlike tribes have by bloodshed and
robbery forced the government to terms
and now live in comparative ease and
luxury while the weaker tribes whose
actual title to their lands was equally as
good as those of the stronger ones are
left to rely entirely on their own re-
sources and being, in many cases, un-
able to accommodate themselves to the
new conditions imposed upon them by
the nineteenth century civilization, pre-
sent a plight pitiable in the extreme.
What the government has dealt out to
the northern Utes, tribe remarkably
strongly developed and one that has pro-
duced chiefs, that in civilized life would
have distinguished themselves as diplo-
mats and generals. 1t has not been an
act of charity any more than was the
bounty paid to Germany by France, two
decades ago, an act of charity. AS a
matter of business it was cheaper to buy
the Indian claims to land than to spend
ten times that amount and thousands OF
lives in trying to acquire thereby, con-
quest.
Meeker was sent out to disburse the
consideration the Indians were to re-
ceive for the REIMBURSEMENT OF certain
rights. Here his power and authority

The Wa-Keeney. WORLD, while not
so reckless as to discard its use without
the prospect of having company, does
some loud inveighing against the edito-
rial "we." The WORLD falls down at
the point where it assumes that the use
of ''we" is not tolerated in the gram
mars. 1t is. At the same time the
grammars are considerate. They do
not prohibit the use of ''I. ."-Os6oyme
Farmer.
To the Osborne Farmer we would
say that when we went to school the
grammar we studied 1--WE have forgotten
the name of it) gave the personal pro-
noun ''I" as singular and ''We" as plural.
We do not think any change has been
made. According to the ynles of gram
mar "We' is plural as we said "We"
was. According to established usage, as
We admitted, the editorial "We" even
where its antecedent is in the singular
number is tolerated. We will reiterate !:
"Our leading journals such as the New
York Tribune, Topeka Capital, WESTERN
KANSAS WORLD" and even the Farmer,
use the editorial ''We." There is no
room for an argument, Colonel, as to the
difference 'twixt tweedle dunn and
tweedle dee."

The best crops they saw while absent
were in eastern Kansas. In speaking of
the Worlds fair Mr.. Saum says it is not
possible for language to do justice to the

grand beyond all expression. He says
also that prices for all kinds of accom-
modations are not exhorbitant but very
reasonable.

A few of the would be leaders of the
democratic party have already COM
menced the whipping in process. That
is to say they are endeavoring to deliver
their democratic brethren to the popu-

them all without any trouble. If the
democrats of Trego county are like cat
tie they may do it, otherwise not. We
know they can't deliver them all.

The ''farm hands" of Kansas are or
ganizing and the scheme will not be an
annex to the peoples party either. We
have often wondered why the farm la
borers did not havea union or some kind
of brotherhood for their protection.
Almost all other laborers have them,
while the farm hand, who works from
II to Is hours every day, usually for low
wages, has submitted without MUIR
mur. The populists have made great
showing of trying to look after the in
terests of the laboring man generally,
but have entirely ignored the farm hand.
They are in favor of eight hours day
for all kinds of labor except for the farm
hand whom they work, very often nearly
twice that number of hours every day
The populists of Kansas should be COM
PEELED to take little of their own medi-
cine occasionally, and then they will
probably not be so anxious to admins
ter to others.

"Wednesday, June IA, A. E. Freder-
ick, W. G. Wallace, George King and
Joseph ellison as spectator, endeavored
to cause rain by bombarding the clouds.
The party procured several pounds of
powder, an anvil with its attachments
and several small arms. The army was
divided into three divisions, Frederick
commanding in the left, King the right
and Wallace the center. The army
moved with much caution and after a
great deal of maneuvering and skirmish-
ing succeeded in capturing Buffalo Hill
which is situated about 8 miles south
east of Hill City. After the surrender
of the place furious bombardment was
commenced against the elements to de-
liver up part of their moisture to the
surface of the parched earth. Round
after round of the large guns and per-
feet fusilade of the small arms were fired
broadside into the enemy but with nc
material effect. After hard days work

good order, disgusted but wiser.-Hill

In the Kansas building at the
Worlds fair, among other Trego county
exhibits by the Woman's Columbian
Club, is photograph of J. N. Kulp's
old sod house and his new stone dwell
ing 1t was designed to show the i'm
provement of our Kansas farmers and
with that object in view placards were
furnished for these buildings which read /:
"In 1885," "In 1885," thus calling
attention to the transition from the sod
to the more aristocratic stone residence.
By the side of these buildings is also a
photograph of our fine depot. By a
blunder of somebody not cognizant of
the facts "In 1885" was placed under the
Kulp building and ''In 1892 was placed
under the depot building. Under all
was inscribed ''Depot Building of the U.
P Railway Co. at Wa-Keeney, Kansas" !"
thus making it appear that the photo
graphs were designed to show the i'm
provement of the railway company in
the matter of depot building since 1885.
