GEN. FRANK ARMSTRONG, assistant
commissioner of Indian affairs, who has
lived for years among the Indians, is
widely at variance with some of his
predecessors in Office regarding the best
way to deal with the red man. He says:
'Some people, earnest and sincere, but
without practical ideas, think that all
you have to do is TO put a pair of shoes
on an Indians feet in place OF moccas-
ms, teach him to say by rote which is
tho longest river in the world and to
sing a hymn, and you have him civilized.
An Indian, like a white man, wants to
know where he m in; what he is
going to get out of it. Let him see that
by working he can get money and buy
things as the white man does, and he
will soon ~civilize himself in the right
direction. A United States govern
ment school was built on a reservation
lately, and in furnishing the school
they put in acquisitions for two en-
cyclopedias. Two hoes would have
cost less and been more USE
full. They also wanted maps Of Asia
and Africa. These things were for the
teaching of children nine years old. Tho
only way to educate an Indian is to
teach him to make an honest living-to
earn his W support"
But Gen. Armstrong takes issue, on
the other hand, with the utilitarians
who say, make farmers Of the In
diane" The Sioux, he says, never will
make farmers. They are stockraisers.
The Naya1oes are sheep raisers and
weavers of blankets. The Zunis and
Pueblos are natural potters. Other
tribes are fishermen, and 80 on. He
would have the government help them
along the line Of natural inclination,
educate their children on the reserva-
tions instead Of at outside schools and
train them in the way OF their fathers.

A MANUFACTURER of bicycles writes
to THE INDEPENDENT, in alarm, that
assessors in Massachusetts and else
where are Listing bicycles for taxation
on the ground that they are luxuries,
and wants to know what we think
about it. We think it is wrong. The
bicycle should be the poor mans car
riage and the tax gatherer should leave
it alone. Perhaps il our friend, the
manufacturer, would cut profits and
prices to a more reasonable figure and
put his machines in reach of the poor
the assessor would not regard them as
luxuries for the rich. Anyhow, they
shouldn't be taxed.

THE present financial shake-up is
rightly called "a rich mans panic"
The failures are confined almost wholly
to spectators, banks that have over
strained their credit and people who
have long been shaky. The general
business Of the country is good. All
the conditions are at hand for a pros
porous year to come. There is a prom
Using prospect Of bountiful crops and
corresponding scarcity abroad, which
means big prices for our farm products.
Merchants are dong a fair and safe
business; collections are kept we'll up
and, when the influx OF visitors to the
fair ceases and normal conditions are
restored, We shall see increased activity
along all lines.

THE POINT.

In the way of good business blocks,
fine residences and school buildings,
electric railway and water service and
good hotels, the people OF Helena have
done a great deal for their town. We
now have here nearly all the conditions
to make it an attractive city. But other
things must be done to make it grow
rapidly. We need enterprises that in
their scope and nature will draw the at
tention of the outside world to US. The
location of the great military post has
done something in that direction, but
the best undertaking of all would be the
construction Of one or more new rail-
roads. When the people of a oommu-
nifty begin railroad building, they dem
onstrate t o,the world their confidence
in the future of their W town. They
draw population and business, almost
with the laying Of the first tie. Every
body knows about the town that is
building a new railroad. The fact is
advertised on all the circulars sent out
by banking houses in financial centers.
Capitalists begin to inquire about prop
erty investments in a town that is SUR
to grow. Business men on the alert for
trade turn their eyes toward the place
that they know will become a trade cen
ter. Manufacturers, seeking a location
for plants, distinctive go to the city that
offers increased transportation facilities.
There is not a city IN the west to-day
that has not seen its period of greatest
growth and development begin on the
day it started to build new railroads.
This is the history especially of Kan
sas City, Denver and Omaha. And the
people of those cities only had a small
share of the railroad building to do for
themselves. One or two lines inaugur-
eted by home capital and enterprise
quickly brought competing lines, built
at the cost Of outside capitalists. So it
would be with Helena. A railroad built
into the Castle country to conness with
the Burlington system, or a connecting
link southwark to meet the Union Pa
cifc would at once force other systems
speedily to extend their lines to the
coming railroad center. If we get the
Burlington or Union Pacific into Hell
ena we shall have the Northwestern,
the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul, and
perhaps a new and direct line from Den
yer quickly following them.
Why doesn't Helena start the ball? It
is frequently objected that this is an I'M
favorable time, that capitalists are shy,
that money is scarce, and the like. OPP
portunities are never ready.made, for
individuals or communities. The peo.
pie who get ahead in the world make
opportunities. Helena can start a rail
road enterprise as we'll one time Us an
other. Difficulties will be encountered
at any time but we have the men and
money in this town to overcome them.
There is nothing to hinder the begin
ming of one new railroad, at least, in the
summer of 1893. All that is required is
q little more nerve on the part of our
citizens,
