NO INDIAN WARS IN CANADA.
She Is Too Poor to Seek Glory and Too
Proud to DO Her Proteges Wrong.

Proud to DO Her Proteges Wrong.
The great fact stands boldly forth
that Canada has never fought the In
dams. and she will not begin to do so
now, declares the Westminster Review.
Never has Canada had an Indian war;
an Indian massacre is unknown in the
annals of her history. She is too poor
to seek glory by slaughtering the ma
tlves born of her soil. and too proud to
dcfame her character or stain her es-
cutcheOn. Contrast with this the policy
of the United States, that is nearly al
ways fighting its red men. Indian wars
arc very expensive matters to deal with.
The small episode of last year. begin
ming with the messiah craze and ending
with the tragedy at Pine Ridge agency,
covering but few weeks, cost the Unit
ed States government $1,000 900. be-
sides the lives lost, and. In addition. I'M
settled the natives throughout the coun-
try. 1t is to the credit OF the Canadian
Indians that, although sorely tempted
the messiah craze had no charms for
them. There was in Canada, it is true.
Riels first rebellion, that cost Canada
SIOOO,OOO and the lives of some of her
MODEST citizens. But that was not an
indian uprising. Nevertheless it taught
both the white men and the red men
iesson' 1t taught Canada that it would
be cheaper to ration all the Indian
tribes than to have another rebellion.
and 1t taught the Indians the prowess
OF the authorities, and this was empha-
sized by the trips given the Indian
chiefs to Ontario, where they beheld
tokens of the power wealth and pIorv
OF the white men.
