The instructions given to the command
ing officer OF the Department Of Dakota to
send troop OF the First Cavalry to the
Tongue River agency will probably pre-
vent any conflict between the Northern
Cheyonnes and the white settlers. The
First, Third, Sixth, Ninth and a half OF the
Fourth and the Tenth regiments respect
lively are the cavalry forces retained for
home duty, and the entire First Regiment Is
in Nebraska, the Dakotas and Montana.
Tho Northern Cheyennes have played q
prominent part In our Indian wars, and the
Tongue River region has been the scene Of
many raids and much bloodshed. But OF
late the troops have been quite as much
needed to protect the red men as the white.
For long time there has been trouble
over tho fact that white herders have
been on the pasture lands Of the Tongue
River reservation. Some OF these are
squatters. and have no rights; few hold
valid patents from the Government, hav-
ing taken up lands there and made i'm
provements before the reservation was set
apart for the Indians. Out OF this fact has
undoubtedly risen the present trouble.
1t has been proposed to settle the diff
Guilty by moving the Indians, but the
friends OF the latter urge that the more
just plan is to move the whites. The
squatters, it is urged. should be driven out
summarily, whilo to the whites there law.
fully other lands as good should be given,
with remuneration for improvements. Of
course II the squatters were driven out
the problem would be simplfied.
At all events, the presence OF the troops
will be a guarantee Of peace and order
since the Indians no less than the whites
are accustomed to rely on them.

MIR, Austin's --latest.

Mr.. ALFRED AUSTIN takes his Poet Lau-
rcateship hard. He will not spare him
self or his distinguished victims. He
has fatal industry and the Queen must
view it with alarm. He calls his thirteen
verses OF fvo lines each on her eightleth
birthday IAN Indian Summer" which Is
good American title II not highly novel.
Mr.. AUSTIN seems to consider the abundant
use Of capital letters to be the main charac-
teristic of poetry. They are scattered
through his thirteen verses, the regular
initial splcndors Of capitalization not being
enough for him:
80 that when glowed your Summer Ser the Land.
You with your People round You. could forecast
Rich-fruiting Future planted in tho Past.
Expanding promise OF Rule rightly planned
or Freedom round your shores aud on the sea COM
mand.'
"Shores" and sea" should have had cap
ital initials. The Austinian system Is sim
pie and should be consistent
Mr.. AUSTIN does not vex the imperial
ears with any uncomfortably new asser-
tons. He declares without fear Of contra
diction that there comes time when
Summers wano"; there Is beauty in au-
tumnal bough"; the cuckoo doesn't call
all the year; blue smoke rises from hamlet
roofs. Widowed evening weeps behind
her veil" probably she has been made lach-
rymose by Mr.. AUsTIN's verses. There are
buds and springtime and seedtime and fur
rows, and the Queen Is praised for having
known in April that there was time
" when mellow fruit is stored and stacked
in rlpened wheat" Inevitably the golden
girded sheaves and the vain are brought
in. What Is autumn poetry without n
vain And 1.-The rlngdove's mate, as
fades the leaf and falls, Reiterates its note
OF love that never pals" Mr.. AUSTIN seems
not to have learned the art Of the ring
doves mate. The lark is aloft, there's an
orchard croft, "a something in the air &C.
lestially soft"
Mr.. AUSTIN has nothing to say, and he
patches his commonplace with bits Of POM
pousness that seem almost ludicrous, as
when he tells the Queen OF the reposeful
radiance Of your gaze, A golden sunset seen
through AutumAs silvery haze If Mr..
AUsTIN's Indian Summer verses are fair
specimen Of "the Harvest Hymns begun "
OF which he speaks, the Queen has new
reasons for regret. Wains full Of Austin
ian harvest hymns will creak horribly.

China.

What In world politics is commonly known
a. destiny, tho march Of the heavier bat
taions among the nations into tho camps
OF the weaker, was on Thursday outlined as
to China by the Hon. JOHN BARRETT. lately
our Minister to Siam, with provision
founded upon peculiar study and under
standing OF the situation. Addressing the
New York Chamber Of Commerce, Mr.. BAR
RErr began with the proposition, "Expan-
sion Is synonym for commerce ana COM
mcrce is tho lifeblood OF nations and
summed up his scheme for the Eastern
policy OF tho United States:
"our policy in China to-day should. therefore,
look frst, to the integrity Of the empire or no
further alienation Of territory followed by reform
OF the Government: second. the open door Of free
dom Of trade for all China, as outlined In the old
treaties; or third in tho unavoidable delimitation
OF spheres OF influence. such delimitation as Will
ever loavo the markets open to our exporters with
out discrimination in favor Of others"
Failing entirely in this programme. 1t
would remain for the United States to OBJ
tain "by purchase or treaty" port in
northern China to maintain and protect our
interests"
That Is the advice OF an observant
American who has been upon the spot. 1t
must, and will be, in wisdom, the policy OF
the United States.

NEW LIFE-S1TTNG APPLIANCES
Buoy Made of Reindeer Hide-Serpentins
Boat to BE Tested on Jamaica Bay.

WASHINGTON. June 2.-Ths board annually
appointed by the Treasury Department to ex-
anime new methods OF marine life saving has
made report to the department on its inves-
legations in 1890. At n series OF meetings re-
Gently held in Boston the board examined
models and descriptions of forty five new life
saving appliances AS is usually the case.
only few Of these Troved to be worthy OF seri-
GUS consideration. Nearly every year one or
moro designs for an improved lifepoat are
submitted for inspection. but it 10 a remark
able fact that he lifeboat now used on all our
coasts is modified only very slightly from the
boat invented BY an Englshman century or
more ago. This year the hoard examined
several designs for improving the lifeboat. but
mono OF them seemed worthy.
The board was very favorably impressed
with n new kind o! life saving buoy. manufac-
tured from the hide OF the reindeer and a test
OF the buoy is ordered to be made on Lake
Huron. This material Is said to he equally
buoyant whether wet or dry. and it Is more
durable than cork. It may come into general
use in the manufacture Of life preseryers.
ne to the boS 0 hs was esT ppeTeny
at first sight. n crank invention. but upon ex;
animation it was decided to, order an official
tes'. This is 4 serpentine boat. so called BY
its inventor who lives in Jamaica. \. Y. I he
inventor describes his device as moyinG
we'll rs forward. He claims that this boat can
be driven swiftly over the surface of the ocean
to reach a wreck and that it can be used with
equal facility on the beach. An official test
will be made in Jamaica Bay. where the in
ventor says he has used the machin" success
fully.
The board decided to adopt q rome. throwing
device rs part Of the regulation life-savn9
paruphernalia. This consists Of gun for
throwing a rome over q wreck. and Is So Light
that it can be adjusted for use from n ifeboat.
An oil distributing device wns submitted
~ one inventor but the board decided ad-
vcrsely. Officers Of the Life Saving Service
assert that while oil Is very useful as a means
OF sitting the waters in a storm. II has no ef-
feet or shallow water near the shore or on
breakers. which are such a dar gerous factor
IN the case OF most shipurscks.

Yellow Journalism and the Clark Baby

Public interest in the case OF the lost
child, and the joy OF everybody over its re-
covery and restoration to the distracted
parents, are alike credtable to human ma
ture.
Sympathy Of this sort Is easily awakened
in the great metropolis and 1t Is very con-
tagiOus.
Millions OF people were happier yester-
day because they knew that this morsel OF
humanity was safe in its mothers arms
again.
We observe that various yellow journals
are discussing the question as to which of
them Is due the credit for the recovery Of
Mr.. CLARK's baby.
By a singular coincidence, here and there
in the streets and cars and ferryboats yes
terday you might hear people discussing
the question as to which Of the yellow jour
nails probably stole the baby.
Unjust, We hope, but a curious revelation
of tho repute in which a certain kind Of
journalistic enterprise Ia held in this COM
munity.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SUN-.Sir: The fol-

In Danville. Ill last week Col Bryan lectured on
Taxation" to a meeting Of farmers He said that
the farmers are overtaXed. while 1.-The mcueyed

The farmers belong to the moneyed class" them

An old Newburg lawyer who has been in
Minnesota many years was visiting his old
home here few days ago He talked freely OF
the conditions Of the West at the present time
and said that although he had loaned there
scores Of thousands OF Eastern money he was
now obliged to send it back. The Western
farmer doesn't want it. His land has in many
cases made him rich and in others he has
