The Indian Problem.

Minneapolis TT bune.
There lie no doubt that the disarma-
ment of the Indians-or at least taking
away from then all their more deadly
and warl' ke weapons aud the puni-h-
M Mt of the miscreant white men VINO
cheat them and sell them whisky, is
he key note To the paci6cation of the
Indian country. The breaking up OF
the reservations and the allotment to
the Indian families OF land in several
ty should follow, but as such action de-
ponds upon congressional legislation il
will be slow in coming, aud there is
danger that pol tics will interf re to
prevent it. The present system of
conducting the Ind an r. servatiops
gives too many fat political pickiugs 20
be willingly dispensed with by the
erage congressman.
IL Is essential to the interests of
Northern Minue ota that peace with
the Indians be SPEEDILY concluded and
ma ntaiued; but peace should be ef-
fected upon permanent and not upon
a temporary basis. It is 10 be feared
that the extremely mild terms offered
by Indian Com missioner Jones will en-
5olden the Indians and We them the
idea that they can res st the govern
ment with impunity whenever it suits
them to do so. He virtually offers
pardon 10 the murderers of our SOL
diers II the men named In
the original warrants are su-rends red.
Tn Sc men are wanted ss w theses 10
cases involving the violation of the
liquor laws, and the terms offered by
MIR. JON are calculated to give the
Indians the idea that it is more
heinouS offepse to buy whisky than IT,
is TO make war on the United States
and shoot down our sold era. L. SO ms
TO us that puni-hment should be melted
out to the leaders among the In1ians
who melted the shooting. The mur-
der OF Maj. Wilkinson and his brave
comrades should be avenged.
IL it is not, we fear that The
peace cpr cluded now will not b.
OF long duration. Th.re will be plenty

and when they see how lightly such

pretext. The settlement Props d by
Jones will ba taken by
the bad" Indians as an Indication of
weakness on the part Of the govern
ment, and although IL may SUCCEED in
effectirg a truce now, it W II Inevitably
pave the way to future outbreaks.

CHICAGO is having q great time with
its peace jubilee. But it seems little
queer to have q peace jubilee just now.
IL is sort of between seasons. 1t would
have been all right IL it had come neal
the date of the signing of the protocol
but now IL looks as If it would be bet
ter for the different gr at cities of the
country to wait until the peace CON-
mission completes its .lsbors and the
'reaty has been exchanged. 1t is by
no means sure that peace, founded
on the protocol, is lasting. Even il 1,
Is, we shall now have to have another
jubilee when peace is finally con.
cluded.
