the gain being little over 80 rcun Is
for the best. the lambs weighing about
~ pounds when purchased, the conclus-
ion is that only common lam bs were used.
The gain would be much more with we'll
bred lambs, as n Oxford lamb has been
known to weigh 100 pounds in 100 days
from birth, hence the gain Of 80 pounds
for the best is not large. 1t is in breeding
the lambs that the profit is made, as the
buying OF lamb TO be fatted for market
compels the farmer to accept any kind
OF lambs offered. because he may not be
able to procure any others for his pul-
pose. but with the lambs we'll bred and
raised by him his increase in weight will
not only be mere rapid. but he will
be able to put lambs on the market Of
superior quality. and thereby derive q
higher price per pound. The cost Of the
food will be the same, whether raised or
purchased, but the lambs will create .
home market for the food, which con-
sequently Lessons the cost Of transporta-
tion OF the bulky articles. Raising early
lambs should receive the attention OF
farmers. as sheep are paying il wool does
not, and the largest profits are from the
lambs.

Lyman I. Henry. who has been nomi-
mated by the Populis;s for District
Judge is row IS years OF age. He came
TO the San Juan 2l years ago. After
following the occupation OF freighter
and teamsier for. nearly four years, he
attended school in Illinois and in Colo
RADIO Springs. While reading law he
was employed as a writer and associate
editor OF The Silver World in Lake City.
He was admitted to the practice OF Law in
1884. After acting as principal OF the
Lake City schools for one term. he en-
gagged in the active practice OF Law. In
the latter Part OF 1856 he moved to Delta
county and there engaged in the practice
OF Law until 1890 when he came to Ouray
and has ever since reeided among Us.
In 1890 he vas appointed city attorney.
and re appointed in 1891 and 1892. and
elected by vote Of the people to that
Office in 1888. In 1896 he sssumed the
duties Of attorney, to which ofice he

sctive in his Practice and his clients
have been loyal friends TO him. He was
married in 1855 aud his little family Of
two children and his wife have been the
object OF his care and devotion.
The Herald has boen opposed to Mr..
Henry politically. and at this time there
is 4 candidate in the person OF Henry
W. Ross. who is upon the Silver Repub-
lican ticket, to which this paper in all
honor gives its allegience. This does
not prevent us from saying that Mr..
Henry in his private and professional
career has always been eaergctis, honor
able and liberal minded.
In polictics he has sought to justify
his cause by Arguments and has recog-
ni,ed the rights OF others to follox their
consciences without being abused or
maligned. Whatever may be said in
the heat OF the campaign it may be
Acknowledged that his political methods
are characterized by energy and cieanli-
ness. We say this much in simple just
ice without any pledge OF support to Mr..
Henry. He is studious and earnest in
his prnfession and zealous in any thing
he undertakes.-Oursy Herald.

Wearing Army Decorations.

According to a present army regulation
no army or naval officer car receive any
decoration or present from a foreign
power except by an act of congress. The
trainers of this regulation meant well
enough. but their democratic simplicity
in the opinion of many citizens and Off
GERS, went too far and there have been
occasions where injustice has been done
to deserving men. 1t can be set down as
a general rule admitting of but rare ex-
ceptions that when a foreign govern
ment desires to decorate an American
officer, that officer richly deserves the
honor.
There has been, and probably will con-
tinue to be, a strong feeling against this
law in army and navy circles. 1t Is seen
that the officers are able to secure all
the home decorations they desire or may
be offered them; and some officers are
profusely adorned; 30 why MOI receive
decorations from abroad, IL such are Of
fered, as well as at home? Perhaps with
the reorganization of the army and
navy this matter may be brought up
and at least SO modified that some sort
Of foreign recognition may be allowed
where 1t Is evident that the intended re-
cipient Is a deserving man.

The free traders will have another
kick coming over the Dingley tariff
law, in it's effect upon the tin plate in
dustry. One Of the largest tin plate
manufacturers in Wales, William Will
Jams, has sold his plant in Wales and
will build one of the largest concerns of
the kind in the world at Pittsburg. This
change is caused by the present tariff
making it impossible for foreign makers
of tin plate to compete with the Ameri-
can manufacturers, and is a complete
refutation of the claim made by the
Cobdenites that tin plate cannot be
made in the United States. Again, the
new Corners will have to be fed and the
market for American products will be
increased by the employment of many
persons in the Williams plant, and any
thing tina brings better prices to the
American farmers is regarded by the
free traders as an attempt to foster the
principles of protection.

General Lawton seems to have adopt
ed an entirely different method of deal
ing with the Cubans than was followed
during the days of the fighting before
Santiago, and the result of the change
has brought the Cubans out in a new
light. By treating the commanding Of
ticers of the insurgents forces as men
of affairs and judgment, interesting
them in the management of the people
and placing them in places of RESPONSE
bility, the conditions in the province of
Santiago de Cuba have been very much
bettered. the Cuban soldiers are return
ing to their homes, and poverty among
the masses Is disappearing. Often times

MISUNDERSTANDING arise, as they did at

The Indian Educational Crisis.

The workers in Indian missions and
schools the country over are taking
more heart thar ever over the future Of
the rising Indian generation and the
solving Of the problem which has veXed
this county for so man. years. This
problem would have been much easier
of solution. the government saved mill
ions of dollars and the country many
thousands of lives had the treatment of
the red man by the pale face been OF a
bier policies. The Indian has been cheat
ed, betrayed, lied to and made the bat
tledor and shuttlecock of constituencies
schemers and public officials until in
plains red with the blood of innocent
women and children, and devastated set
Element after settlement.
But of late years, especially since
Captain Armstrong and other public
spirited persons Of discerning minds
took an active part in the direction Of
Indian affairs. light has begun to come
out of darkness; and the means that
has proven so efficient finally in sim
plifying this problem has been the
education of Indian children away
from the scenes of the vagabond
life Of their ancestors, as we'll as a more
kindly line of policies pursued in the
public treatment of the red man. The
Indian school has come to stay, and is
apparently destined to be the most pow
erful agency in the civilization of the
noble red man. Santa Fe people will not
have far to go to realize that, for one OF
the best conducted Indian schools in the
country is located right within easy
reach. and there they can see for them
selves the beneficent effects of Indian
education.
1t has been learned from various re-
sponsible and public spirited citizens in
timately connected with Indian work
over the country that the opposition
hitherto 8 often offered by Indian par
ents to the education and civilization of
their children has largely disappeared,

- that 81 present there are but two
tribes of inferior Importance now that
remain in the ranks of the opposition,
and the indications are that resistance
from this quarter will shortly fade
away. In fact, the great majority of the
Indian tribes, especially the Navajos,
are only too anxious for the civilizing
and re%genration of their rising genera
ton, and the Indian schools are being
taxed to accommodate the increasing
to have the schools where their children
attend built IN the home reservation,
where they can see what is going on,
and this may be natural enough. In
not be desirable in some instances. The
mere sight of an American pubic school
house is a civiliZer of itself, and the WIS.,
its of Indian parents to the school room
education are in vogue would have a
decided effect for the better upon the
adult Indians themselves. They would
not fail to unconsciously catch and i'm
bibe many ideas likely to have a civil
Izing influence upon them.
1t is evident that the government will
be called upon to expend considerable
money in the line of Indian education
for a number of years; but 1t will be
money well invested, for it is sure to
ave future generations a great deal
Of trouble, bloodshed and loss of prop
erty from Indian depredations, and the
coming generations of the native Amer
lean will be quietly and effectually alb
sorbed into American civilization by the
same great amalgamating process that
is now welding the mixed n~ationalities
gathered between u east and west
coast lines into a distinctively new but
homogeneous mass. OF course, other
and valuable agencies, such as allotting
lands in severalty to the Indian and ad-
hitting him to citizenship, must not be
overlooked. and due credit should be
given them in the regenerative work.
But at the same time, the educational
work is. in the minds of many citizens
of experience in Indian work, the prin-
cipal feature, and its success ought to
be, and is cordially welcomed by every
right thinking citizen.
