Literary Notes.

The editor of The Review of Re-
views, in his record of "The Progress
of the World" for the July number,
comments on many matters Of ma
tional and international moment
the recent cabinet changes following
Secretary Gresham's death, the pecu-
liar prominence of Mr.. Carlisle in the
leadership of his party, the present
status of the silver question in poll
tics, the duty of the United States to-
ward Spain and Cuba, the progress Of
American universities, Russia S rela-
tions with China and Japan, the pros
poets of Pacific cable construction,
the opening of the Kiel canal, the pro-
gress of amateur sports in England
and elsewhere, the recent italian elect
ions, the fall of Count Kalnoky, anti
Semitism in Vienna, British politics,
the future of Chitral, the Armenian
question and various other timely
topics. This department of The Re-
view is illustrated by a score or more
of portraits of the men and women of
the day. together with maps and
views.
The July Midland (Des Moines) is
out. It's pictures delight the eye and
its contents please. If it's "Types of

the most tragic event in the early his
tory of the Northwest, is wildly de-
scrlbed by Ex-Governor Carpenter.
Abbie Gardner Sharp, sole survivor
of that tragedy, tells thrilling tale of
her experiences while d captive among
the Indians. Frank Russell, natural

northern British America. Senator
Allison's estimate of James E. Will

LET US BE JUST.
THE MURDERED INDIANS.

Out in Idaho and Wyoming it is the
popular opinion that the only good
Indian is the dead Indian. There is
small regard for the lives of red
men, and only the incomprehensible
prejudice in the eastern states
against the filing of Indians without
some show of reason has prevented
the wholesale slaughter of the ma
tion's wards in that section. When
ever it is possible to find an excuse.
the red men are ruthlessly shot down.
Not much of an excuse is considered
necessary, as will be discovered in the
reports from the vicinity of Jackson's
Hole.
1t is not important that man
shall be fanatic on the subject of
wrongs against the Indians in order
to feel very great Indignation over
the unprovoked massacre OF Bannocks
reported to have occurred on July 81.
If the reports are trustworthy, the
Anne rican people have occasion to be
deeply ashamed of white men in the
far west, and to unite in an appeal to
the federal government for the arrest
of the men who killed sixteen In
dians, leaving alive but one papoose of
the entire party of Indians arrested
The seventeen Indians men, women
and children were arrested by band
Of thirty white men for shooting elk
and other game out Of season. 1t is
alleged that on the way to Jackson's
Hole the Indians made an attempt to
escape, whereupOn all but one little
child was shot dead.
II this report is accurate. the thirty
white men were guilty of deliberate
and unprovoked wholesale murder
and deserve to receive the highest
legal penalty, which, in Idaho, is
death.
1t is safe to say that the Indians did
not attempt to escape. That is the
well-worn lie by which blood thirsty
white men have always sought to
justify murder in these circum-
stances. Nobody will believe that
thirty armed white men could not
prevent the escape of seventeen In
dians, part of them women and chill
dren, without killing them. There is
a pref udice in some parts of the west
against carrying Indian prisoners to
military station and preference for
killing them.
If the Bannocks and Shoshones
should GO on the warpath against the
whites of Idaho and Wyoming in con-
sequence of this ruthless slaughter,
who could blame them? Unless the
government at Washington uses the
army to arrest the murdererS, the In
dians have ample warrant to dig up
the Ratchet, because if this wholesale
slaughter goes UNPUBLISHED the future
OF the Indians is hopeless. Every
white man with gun and a dislike
fo.r the red men will be tempted to
kill buck or squaw or papoose.
If these are the facts and the feder-
al government uses the army to corral
the Indians without taking steps to
punish the thirty white murde rers.
then American citizens will do we Ii to
be silent concerning the Turkish out
RACES in Armenia.-N. Y. World.

neapolis. This feature will be quite as
prominent this year, as usual. The lee

in Institute Hall, on the grounds and ar
engagements have been made for an un-
limited number of tents for those who
desire to camp on the grounds during
the week of the fair, or from Sept 9th
to 14th inclusive. These tents will ac-
commodate six persons, and may be had
without cost by application to DR.. J. C.

kGREAT STATE FAIR.

The annual fair under the auspices Of
the Minnesota State Agricultural So
ciety will be held this year on the
grounds at Hamline, midway between
St. Paul and Minneapolis, Sept. 9th to
14th inclusive. The big crop which has
been harvested in Minnesota this year is
likely to contribute most to making the
fair the biggest and best in the history Of
the society More interest has already
been shown in the forthcoming exposi
than in any previous year, and more in
quiries are being made about the affair.
The society offers $4,000 in premiums
and prizes, of which $4,000 is to be given
to the raisers of cattle, and like amount
to the breeders of horses. There are lib
e1al premiums also for the poultry fan
ciers. The big crop which Minnesota has
secured is known all over the country
and the prospects are that the stock
raisers from all over the country will
send their herds and studs to the fair,
and make the exhibit a notable one.
Premium list will be sent on application
to E. w. Randall, secretary. Hamline,

GETTING READY FOR ANOTHER
RAKE.OFF

Washington, Aug. 13.-The treasury
yesterday lost s1,650.O0O in gold for ex-
port to Europe, leaving the reserve only
about 81, 300, 900 above the hundred million
point. The telegram which announced
the withdrawal reached department
just as it was closing at o'clock, and
gave no intimation as to the name Of the
exporter, or the exact designation Of the
shipment.
Mr.. Curtis, the acting secretary, said he
had nothing to say in regard to the mat
ter. He had no specific information. and
could not say whether the syndicate
would allow the 500, 900, 900 to be en-
croached upon or not. None of the other
officials would talk in the absence of Sec
rotary Carlisle. This heavy withdrawal
has given rise to a report that another
bond issue is impending, but there Is now
no one in Washington who can speak on
the subject, or who has information not
shared by the public The best public
opinion is that the syndicate will not al
low the reserve to be encroached upon
until after Oct. /, when, as generally un-
derstood, their obligation ceases. But
even in event of still further withdraw
ais, it is believed that both Mr.. Cleveland
and Mr.. Carlisle would see the reserve
reach q point below any that it has vet
touched before they would take any steps
to recoup it by another sale Of bonds, or
purchase Of gold. is argued that the
meeting Of congress is now only IA weeks
off and that without any reasonable
doubt the treasury. with an available
cash balance of nearly S1S4, 900, 900. and
the revenues slightly on the increase, can
meet it's obligations and have comforta-
BILE balance remaining at the close Of the
calendar year. The best judgment OBJ
tainabe here is that there will be no bond

in the event Of continued heavy with
drawals, which are not looked for.

that the corruption which prevails in

fastened upon US, are having a de-
moralizing influence upon the lives of

There is radical need of a vocabulary Of
definition which may be used in the dis
cussion of social problems. l suggest a
few:
1. A Tramp.-One who will not work
and earn an honest living. Sometimes he
sleeps in the police station and sometimes
he lodges in Paris hotel.
2. A Pauper.-One who is supported
by the public. He may be supported In
a poor house, and he may draw his rations
from the public crib through an office
or a contract.
g. A Thief.-One who steals Perhaps
he picks your pocket while your back Is
turned to him; perhaps he robs the pub
lie from it's treasury while you are busy
at the store or shop.
4. A Rascal.-One who cheats or de-
frauds. He is sometimes gambler who
cheats at cards or dice; but possibly he is

the cards or loads the dice which deal him
full pocket of fat contracts, or turn him
three aces of extras
