himself to be the athletic marvel OF
the century by easily defeating J.

from Is to SO miles. Although Michael

Indian, though the desert swarms with
coyotes and other animals.
There is no doubt that Indians do
steal both cattle and horses; but there
are others on the desert who are in the
same line of forbidden industry. But
the Indian is charged with these crimes
until they are proven on some paleface.
This furnishes an excuse for killing an
Indian whenever a desperate wishes to
make a record as a killer. The Indians
have no lands, and. being mere vaga-
bends of the desert, they seek to live
on the pale face who hasdespoiled them.
Some Of them are industrious and work

said the People Were Deprived OF
Their Rights by a Trick.
Recently a beautiful tribute was rem
dered by the people of Chicago to the
memory of Gen, Logan through the ded-
ication of a statue of the gallant sol
der. It is proper that while Gen. Lo-
gan's qualities as a soldier and states
man are thus recalled to our minds that
something should be said as to his firm
stand as a champion Of the peoples
cause when silver was struck down
in 1873 and rehabilitated to a limited
extent in 1870. In a speech delivered
in the United States senate in June,
1879, John A. Logan said:
"But by a trick-I use the word be-
cause it is E proper one in this instance
by a trick of legislation in 1873 the
people of this country were deprived of
the right of paying their debts in sil-
yer dollars. The words gold dollar
were used in an act passed in 1873, ar
ranging for the mintsge OF subsidiary
coin, and the words silver dollar were
left out, and by that character Of leg
islation the silver dollar was demon
etized in this country. From the begin
ming of the government up TO 1878 any
debt. bond or note was payable in silver
dollars. Your bonds. issued by the gov
eminent, were payable in silver dollars
until 1873"
He further said that the reason for
the refusal Of reconciliation Of silver
was mot because they do not think
it is right; not because they do not
demand it; not because it is not right
but because a minority, a few men in
this country, demand nothing but gold
so that they may enrich themselves
upon the distress ard poverty Of the
people Of this county"
What was true then is true now.
