TIME FOR ACTION.

Again THE HERALD calls the attention
OF the Commercial club to the advantages
to be derived from taking active and i'm
mediate steps looking towards the open
ing Of the Yakima Indian reservation.
Congress is on the eve OF session, and
il the attention and energies Of our rep
resentatives and senators are enlisted in
this movement and the reasons and data
In favor Of such action are properly
brought before the committee on Indian
affairs there is a strong probability that
another wheel TO carry us nearer this de-
sired fruiticn may be set in motion. Al
it now stands, eight hundred thousand
acres Of the finest land In the northwest
are tied up and remain practically bar
rem waste, through the fancy of q few
that some wrong may be done to the ma
tons wards.
There are not over 1900 Indians who
are entitled to the rights and privileges
Of the Yakima reservation, and that the
allotments OF lands in severslty and The
sale OF the balance to settlers latter fail
treaty stipulations such as have been
carried out with respect to the opening Of
the Nez Perez reserve) will prove salts
factory to the Yakima Indians is shown
by the fact that over seventeen hundred
OF them have already made thei
selections and are ready to abide by the
action of the government. II the 800, 0O(
acres comprising this reservation were
EQUALLY divided among these Indian,
every man, woman and child would have
400 acres, greater amount OF land thar
they could use or desire. Under tn,
terms of allotment made by Major Ran
kin, something over year ago. the In
dams would receive about 1875, 900 acres
Of their choice of the reservation lands
The balance would be sold to aetna
settlers and the money received for th,
same devoted TO the Indians. Between
one and two millions of dollars woule
thus be realized which properly invested
would make the Yakimas independent
bring to them the comforts OF life and il
every way improve their condition. A
the same time to Yakima county it woult
mean prosperity for the merchant ane
thrift and progress on all hands. The
Commercial club must not let grass grow
under its feet before making q determin
ed effort to bring about this desired end

she Lord Was n xaak They Quit
Fighting.

Gov. Matthew Of Indiana tells q good
story he heard in the south recently. In
Q valley in the northern part of Georgia,
between two mountains which shut out
all communication with the outside
world, there lived an old planter who,
while an ardent adherent OF the southern
cause, was too badly crippled by infirmi-
ties to shoulder q musket and march
barefooted. But he had son whom he
sent and after the boy had disappeared
down the road tie old man waited for
the news of the strife. Occasionally
rumors OF southern victories would float
over the mountains, and the old man
Uncle S. he was called-would rejoice
and take an unusually large dose OF mint
julep. At other times when reverse
news came and 1t was reported that the
gray had been turned back, the old man
would bitterly lament an d use the same
remedy for sorrow that he use to quiet
his joy. Through it all he had abundant
faith in the ultimate victory OF the Con-
federate Army, and any doubt expressed
would meet with stern rebuke.
The years wore on and news failed to
arrive. The valley was deserted and
there was no one to learn the course oil
events. The old man smoked his pipe
and waited impatiently for news. One
morning as he sat on the front porch
with his pipe, far down the road appear
ed the form of u solitary pedestrian
Gradually he approached and the feeble
vision Of the aged planter recognized his
long absent son. The puffs from the
pipe came thick and fast, but this was
the only sign OF esgerness and nervous
ness displayed. The gate swung open
and the soldier walked up and sat down
on the steps.
"Mornin' Jim," said the old man.
"Mornin' pap" was the quiet response
"Shot?"
Mop"
"Sick ?"
Mop"
The old man reached behind him TOR a
stout club, which he used as cane.
"Jim," he said ne'vously, "Jim, ye didn'i
desart 2"
mop, we're whipped"
WHAT"
eyes, we're whipped. Lee has sur
rendered with his army and we uns all
laid down our guns"
The old man iabbed with his cane al
fly for minute and then looking up
with troubled expression, asked:
How'd it happen?'
"Well, pap, We uns all fl our best. an
We CIV 'em hell as long as it was an even
shake; but we uns all found ont at the
Lord was Yank an it wus no use
We uns all laid down our guns an cum

A COPPER DEAL.
A Scheme to Form Combine Between
the Mines of the World.

The Chicago Times says: An in
ternational deal in copper is likely to
be perfected soon. Ever since the
smash-up Of the great corner in cop
per, which was created by a French
English syndicate three years ago,
spectators have been figuring how to
put through such a scheme. This
time it is a combination Of English
capital which is engineering the deal.
Representatives of the combine from
England have been in Chicago for
several days and were joined by John
Dempter, of Glasgow, and Arthur
Turnbull, of New York, who is inter-
ested in the English end of the deal.
The party left for the west. Their
mission, it is said, is to confer with
the owners of the Montana and Ari-
iona properties.

DISGRACEFUL ACTIONS.

n Public Dinner at Boston.
Boston, Dec. 26.-Those who attended
the annual public dinner at Faneuil hall
yesterday witnessed scene of disorder
widely different from the usual Christmas
festivities in that historic cdifice. The
yearly dinner at Faneuil hall Is given by
George w. Parker, n wealthy temperance
advocate. After tho hundreds of poor
people had been fed speech-making by
Mr.. Parker, Rev. DIR. II. l.. Hastings and
others began. The former referred 20 the
sin Of drunkenness and advised his hearers
TO reform.
After DIR. Hastings had finished, James
r. Campion, "A socialist, was granted per-
mission TO speak. He began lengthy
TRADE against monopolists and capital,
and finally advised his hearers to show
their equality TO those who have spoken
here, calling you drurkards." Mr.. Parker
at once interfercd with the speaker, but
he refused to give way.
Another young man stepped TO the front
of the platform and denied n statement
made by Campion that those assembled
had been called "drunkards and vaga.
bonds" The audience broke into an up.
roar, and demanded that Mr. Campion bo
allowed TO go on. So great was the
tumult that ensued that no one could be
heard. When order had been partially re-
stored, Mr.. Parker accused Campion of
being after cheap advertising"
Campion grew red in the face at this,
and branded Parkers statement as "a lie
and an insult" After further interrup.
tions the police cleared the hall.
