wife rented some rooms to the Philldpses.
Baker went to 1nyo county on mining bust

became indebted to his wife to the extent
of S92 for room rent. Baker asked for the
money, SO he claims, but Il was not forth
coming. Finally he closed the doors OF the
house against the Phillipses and refused
to allow them to enter or to remove their
goods until they paid him. Mr.. and Mrs.
Phillips became angry and started toward
the door with the apparent intention OF
breaking 1t down, or at least of securing
entrance. Baker says he showed them
both away whereupon they hied them
selves to the deputy district attorney and
each ssecured q complaint against him for

THE PILLAGfR INDIANS
ARE ANXIOUS TO SURRENDER TO
BACON
The Generals Prompt Action Brought
the Indians to Their Senses
Quicker Than Usual

Mimi, special TO the Dispatch says:
Indian Commissioner Jones and John
Bassett, an interpreter, left today on the
Flora for Black Duck Point to bring in the
Indians who promised to surrender. They
expected to get back to the agency about
noon and to hold peace council there at
2 o'clock. Invitations were sent in writ
ing last night to General Bacon, Commits
sioners Jones and the newspaper cores
pondents to be present at this council. In
the letter to General Bacon it was stated
that the chiefs and head men of the Pilla-
ger band of Chippewas desired to express
their gratitude for his forbearance toward
them in their time of trouble. The mes
sages were read at gathering of army Off
GERS and correspondents.
Commissioner Jones made short speech
in which he said that he wanted to an
nounce publicly that it was due to General
Bacon, in the battle, and his subsequent
luton. of the trouble with the Indians was
brought about promptly and without the
delay usual IN former Indian disturbances.
In his opinion, he said, the General had
prevented bloody war in this State.
General Bacon sent word by John Bassett,
the interpreter, that he would attend the
Peace Council
The correspondents also accepted the in
vitation.
Father Wright says that vote will be
taken at White Earth this weeMf for a sue
cessor to his father, White Cloud, as chief
OF the Chippewas He is not willing to be-
come the chief and thinks his brother will be
chosen.

tions, but our ship builders have no super.

Watson have shown that our sailors are

"The United States can defend its inter.
ests on the high seas wherever these inter.
ests may be. It may cost money, but there
is no need of a foreign alliance.
mo thoughtful man can deny there are
dangers ahead Of us, but they lie in another
direction. We have passed the parting OF
the ways. Alaska is colony No. !, Hawaii
is colony No. !? Porto RICO is No; 8, Cuba
ony No. 4; The Philippines may come in
and be colony No. s, or they may be di-
yided up so that one OF Their; may be colony
No. 25. No one can say that these countries
today are capable of being part of this ma
tion.
Their people are incapable of self-gov-
ernment sI1!n now. When will they be capable!
Take the answer from the history Of the
Danish West Indies, the French West In
dies, the Dutch or British West Indies. Ex.
periments. have been tried there for 200
years and they have not been successful.
The cardinal and insuperable objection to
the colonization of tropical countries is that
they are already inhabited by an inferior
population. No. Anglo Saxon has been able
to change Jamaica and other West Indian
islands.
.I believe our navy ought to be increased
whether we have more colonies or not, but
II we increase our colonies we must build
navy equal to that of any nation afloat."
Mr.. Herbert said if we could take in our
kith and kin across our northern border It
would be well and good, but if Canadians
did not care to join us we should stand as
we are and preserve the Union without in.
viting disasters by experiments not in &C.
