FRIDAY. OCTOBER I, 1898.
The Indian Uprising.

The unreasonable people in the
Northwest who complain Of the slow
ness and inefficiency Of the War De
partment merely show the effect OF
panic. They are threatened with hor-
rible death at the hands Of sayages,
and instead Of submitting TO their fate
like sensible beings they call on an
overworked War Department for help.
and are bitterly critical because of the
delay in sending it. They should know
that the WEAKNESS following the enOr-
NOUS purchases and contracts made by
the department is so great as TO make
their demands impracticable. Besides,
the abIe-bodied survivors OF the war in
that office are engaged in preparing
statements for Secretary Alger's
Relief Commission. The settlers
in the Northwest are no better
than our soldiers in Cuba, and
the latter had TO pay the price of
having a War Secretary who was over
burdened.
Besides, the Secretary Of War is him
eelf a strategist. He allows nobody,
not even General Miles, to plan cam
paigns When Tinker, the Indian
hgent, wired to the Washington office
that he must have ''re-enforcements
immediately" as "our force is annihi-
lated" he was usurping power that be-
longs here. After considering the mes
sage for an hour. the War Department
replied: What's the matter? Wire par
Iculars." A man who has just escaped
from Indians and has succeeded in
reaching a telegraph station in
Greathless state. and who hears the
Rhoop Of the buck in the contiguous
goods. is hardly in a condition 10 write
mt the details of an affair about which
the newspapers have received all pos
sible information. But before doing
anything the War Department wants
map Of the region and a detailed state
ment Of the situation in order TO plan
A. campaign against the hostiles. If the
settlers cannot elude the redskins until
that is achieved their loss is simply AN
unavoidable result of our unprepared-
ness" War is not picnic, and deaths
are to be expected.
The situation is indeed serious, and
there is an urgent need Of prompt ac-
fion to save life II should be infor-
Hnation enough for the moment that our
soldiers are facing a foe that outnum-
bers them and that the lives of the
%hites are threatened throughout a
large section. There is well grounded
fear that all the Indians in the North
west may take TO the warpath. and if
they are restrained il will be only

yeady in the field are desperate, and

knowing the danger and disguised with
Che languid course of the War De
sartment, have sent an urgent message
10 the President. Not less than six or
eight hundred soldiers should be at
Leech Lake at the earliest possible mo-
fnent, they say. This alone can pre-
vent general uprising.

Carefully Selected Witnesses.

II may be accidental A few days
ago. before the Alger Relief Com
mission was guilty Of making
an erroneous statement as to
4ts reason for excluding the
newspaper men. we should have as
sumed it to be accidental Now We
are in doubt. The witnesses invited to
testify up TO this time were known TO
be men who would be favorable to the
War Department. Some weeks ago,
General Wheeler made a public state
ment that proved he was opposed to all
criticism of the administration of the
war. General Boynton, who is respon-
sible for the selection of Chickamauga
as a camping ground, had already made
a report which was subsequently dis
credited and condemned by two inves-
tigating bodies-a commission of regu-
lar army officers of high rank and a
commission OF surgeon majors. General
Lee has been out of ii all; he has seen
nothing of the business that is so scan
dalous, but has been in a camp where
his own administration has been good.
How is il that only persons known to
be strongly opposed to criticisms of the
War Department or else known to be
ignorant of the facts have been exam
aned 10y this Commission? The framing

TAN AND WEALTH.

For a long time the question has been
considered in New York whether money
received by will in payment for services
rendered should be exempt from the tax
on inheritances imposed by the State. The
Brooklyn Eagle has this interesting edi-
torial comment on the subject:
The Court of Appeals has decided that
George ]. Gould must pay the inheritance
tax on S5,G90003 which his father gave 10
him for services rendered at the time of
the death of the elder Gould. The court
also holds that the appraisal of $iS,6l9,-
431-GS of the estate of the late Jay Gould,
which was based on the market value of
the securities held. was not in excess of
the actual value at the time. The effect
of the first decision is to force the pay
ment by George ]. Gould of S132. Al, the
tax fixed by law on the Inheritance OF So
0O0.G The effect of the second decision
is to establish the principle that the mar
ket value of stocks and bonds is the tax
able value when the inheritance tax is TO
be levied. The law under which these de-
cisions were made is an especial favorite
of David B. Hill. The Republicans are in
sympathy with it. for Comptroller Roberts
has suggested notifications which he be-
lieves would make il yield larger revenue
Mr.. Hill when he heard of the court 5 de-
ClSlOn, remarked tnat II was one OF great
Importance, as, if the contention of Mr..
Gould had been sustained. the State would
have lost a large amount of revenue to
which it was justly entitled.
mo one will disagree with Mr.. Hill.
The decision is indeed important. One OF
the results of the law on which it was
based was the removal of &c orge j.
Gould from this city to Lakewood. y. j.
A result of its enforcement in other cases
has been the removal from this city 10

pay on the sum that his father gave TO
him for services rendered There are few
investments which would pay better than
such change of residence for old men. We
may say that it is deliberate evasion
of taxation. but that remark does not
change the disposition of men to escape
the burden. The inheritance tax and the
corporation tax law of New York State
have driven into other States the wealthy
families and the big corporations. The

suggestion as 10 their future use.
"One of the most gratifying incidents
of the Spanish war has been the enthu-
siasm that the colored regiments OF the
regular army have aroused throughout
the entire country. Their fighting at San
tiaso was magnificent. The negro SOL
diers showed excellent discipline the

very superior physical endurance. unfail-

"Roosevelt's Rough Riders have come
back singing the praises OF the colored
troops. There is not a dissenting voice
in the chorus OF praise. 1t has been re-
marked with frequency and with justice
has been the final effacing of all lingering
sectional prejudices between the North
and the South. Gen. Wheeler. of Confed-
crate fame, comes out of the Cuban cam
paign one of the most popular national
heroes The South is as proud OF RoOSe-
welt as the North IS proud of Hobson. 1t
is further to be remarked, however. that
the laurels won by the colored troops
must have a profound effect in helping
TO solve the race question. Men who can

ROOSEVELT AND sHAFTER-

The cry for Col RooseveIt's report
having brought out the information that
it is never to be published. the New York
Times sees no way of learning exactly
what it wants to know about his opin-
ions. 1t says:
I'VE note with interest that Gen Shat
ter expresses n good opinion of Col
Roosevelt and approves his candidacy.
The public would be much more interest
ed however, in Col Roosevelt's opinion
of Gen Shafter and his generaIship.
1T is now pretty generally understood
that on June 80. Gen. Shafter was in
grave doubt about his ability to hold the
position he then occupied before Santa
go. We have been informed that he sent
a dispatch TO the War Department say
ing that he might be compelled to retire
to more secure position few miles in
the rear IL is understood also that the
other generals strenuously opposed a re-
treat, which would have destroyed the
glory of our brilliant record of carrying
on a war in which we never fell back
We have no doubt that Col Roosevelt. IL
his advice had been asked by Gen. Shat
ter would have spoken at once and with
great emphasis for a continued advance
LAS soon as we knew the desperate sit
uation of Toral and his men in Santiago
everybody wondered why Gen. Shafter
should have even for a moment enter
tanned any doubt of his ability to hold
his position. Ii was part of his duty to
know the condition OF the enemy. Had
he known 1t he would never have hesi-
tated. Fortunately he decided to stick
to his line, and the destruction of Cerve-
ras fleet on July 3 removed all occasion
for doubt.
I'VE presume the Presidents war in
vestiEation committee will ask some
questions about the state of Gen. Shaf-
ter's mind on June 30 and July I. But
will it get at the factS?''

of the questions was obviously in the
interest of Secretary Alger. In connec-
ton with the exclusion of the newspa-
per men and the appearance only of
witnesses known in advance to be
either unwilling or unable to testify
against the War Department, there
seems to be warrant for the
opinion expressed by many per-
sons that the Commissioners have
wash the department. 1t will be appar-
ent very soon whether this opinion is
sound If mere accident has made all
the witnesses so far for the defense
We shall soon have others who are
known to be in possession of the most
damning facts.
AS far as the testimony up to date
goes, there is no way to account for the
defects noted in the reports Of the over
worked surgeons at Santiago-defects
that led TO the death of nearly hun
dred men who were wounded and un-
able to find the rear and the migratory
hospitals, because there were no litter
bearers and no hospital force of enlist
ed men. Even the admission of Secre-
tary Alger that the soldiers were with
out provisions because supplies could
not be landed-a fact that is supported
by the testimony of hundreds of suf-
ferers-is almost denied by General
Wheeler, who was stone blind to things
that happened under his own nose at
