AS TO INDIAN AGENTS.

The Milwaukee Sentinel has, up to
very recent date, had nothing but
words of condemnation for William S.
Holman, of Indiana, for his cheese
pairing proclivitles. 1t has freely de-
nOunced him as factiouS objectOr, an
impeachment to legislation, one who
saved at the spigot only to waste at
the bunghole 1t denounced all his
economical schemes as prompted by
partisanship, and not by desire for the
proper administration of the affairs of
the government.
But the Sentinel has experienced
change of heart. Since Mr.. Holman has
undertaken to cut down the number of
ot1lcehOlderS, especially Indian agents,
under the present Democratic admins
tratiou, he has exalted himself immeas-
urably in the estimation of the narrow
gauge editor of the Cream City sheet.
The other OK is being gored, and that
makes all the difference in the world
When Judge Holman secured the con-
solldation of number of pension
agencies, and a consequent reduction
in the number of pension officers and in
the cost of the service, the Sentinel was
ferocious. 1t could scarcely find words
IL which to express its Indignation.
Judge Holman was then as far removed
from sanity estate as human being
could well be, and was destitute of
patriotism, common sense and business
sagacity. But change has come over
the spirit of the editors dreams. Since

MIR. DUNN's REPLY.

As matter of fair play the GLOBE
this morning gives considerable space
to portion of the reply made by Mr.
Dunn, of the Princeton Union. to State
Auditor Biermann's review of the recent
pine land decision.
While no one has questioned Mr..
Biermann's integrity in the matter. there
is no doubt that great public good will
result from the investigation and agita-
ton. in which Mr. Dunn has been in the
front rank.
He explains in his review the methods
by which the state has been syStemat-
ically robbed for years i'll the sales Of
pine lands. 1t has been the result of a
loose and slipshod system on the part
of the state. of which cunning and dis
honest men have taken advantage.
No state auditor has retired wealthy.
and there is no evidence that any of
them have been corrupt. but the Alad-
din-like accumulation of fortunes by
the lumbermen, or many of them. dem
onStrates that they have no scruples in
CeaIing with the state.
The agitation will undoubtedly be
worth all immense sum to the state,
even though it does not restore the mill
ions already lost.
There ought to be enough patriotism
and SelfiShneSs on the part of the tax
payers 10 unite, regardless of politics,
for the protection of themselves. The
whole matter is business rather than
political question, and saving the pine
lands for the state, or securing their
value when sold, is good deal more
important than whether Democrat or
Republican is state auditor.
