TIE AMERICAN INDIAN.

There are few instances Of full blood
ed Indians entering the learned profes-

The skin Of the Indian is thinner than
that Of either the white or the negro
and more easily torn.
Disease, misfortune and death were
generally, according to Indian theology,
attributed to the influence of evil spir-

Coronado, in 1910, found the pueblos
Of New Mexico densely populated, and
other explorers noted the presence Of
the cliff jewellers in Colorado and else
where.
Like all other savage peoples, the In
dams had very little idea of laying up
for the future. They lived from hand to
mouth, rarely making adequate provi-
sion, even for the winter.
It is singular fact that most Of the
American tribes retain traditions Of their
coming to America from some other
country. Most of their traditions point
ed toward the northwest as the place
whence they migrated.
The great temple in the City of Mex

Conflicting Testimony.

The Mineral Point Democrat last
week said
"The Pullman Palace Car company
has advanced the wages OF the ems
ployes ut the Pullman shops 10 per
cent, the advance affecting about
1000 people,
In that other answering organ OF
democracy, the Milwaukee Journal,
issued on the day preceding, We find
the following conflicting statement:
"Workmen in the Pullman car
shops are emphatic In their declara-
ton that their wages have not been
recently increased 10 per cent. The
employees are greatly stirred up over
recent publications horalding the adj
vent Of prosperous times in Pullman.
Prosperous times are yet long way
Off Ia the palace car town.
"Thefe has been no increase In the
wages Of the men. There has been
an increase In the business of the
company and the working hours of
its employees. The force Of men EN-
ployed at present numbers nearly
300 mechanics, about 200 of whom
are even working overtime, but the
old scale Of wages remains.
"None better than the workingmen
know that the company's business
has greatly increased Of late, and
the poor prices which they say they
are being paid for their toll rankles
in their hearts as deeply n did the
injustices which brought about the
great strike, and they claim that un-
less their condition is improved there
viii soon be another outbreak"
Every true report Of increased
wages Tor labor and improvement in
business is hailed with joy, but mis-
representations for partisan effect
merit condemnation. On the whole
there is apparent Improvement over
the condition existing in industrial
centers in 1881, but in comparison
with the general prosperity of lS92---
Immediately preceding democratic
victory~-the condition of labor and
business Is far from felicitou~ As
the time when democratic policies
will have ceased to be operative
grows nearer, greater betteinnent
may be- confidently anticipated.

OUR prophesy that Marshall would
be appointed supreme court judge
proves to have been erroneous. Judge
g. M. Webb, Of Wood county, has
been named for the place. Judge
Webb and Governor Upham. resi-
dents of the same county, have not
AFFILIATED, in political matters or 9TH
erwise. The Judge disapproyed Up
hams candidacy for the governor
ship, and at least sympathized with
an effort to secure a delegation from
their county to the state convention
adverse to Upham's ambition. In
view Of these facts, Webb did not
ask or expect any favors from the
governor, and must have been SUR
prised on receiving tender OF the
judgeship. lie has not yet accepted,
and whether he will do so or not Is
uncertain. a suspicion prevails that
the offer Of the appointment to Webb
has "a string to it, which is designed
to be pulled for the operation Of some
undeveloped scheme Of the admins
tration. If Judge Webb decides to-
accept he will honor and strengthen
the supreme bench.
