Proctor Knott ana John Yerkes were
discussing the claims OF Sampson and
Schley to the credit of smashing Ger

the ground that all the honor OF that
memorable conflict belonged to Ad-
miral Sampson. and was inclined to
entirely ignore Commodore Schley's
part in the affair. The governor lis

Forty-two years ago the late beloved
Henry B. Whipple was consecrated
bishop Of Minnesota. 1t soop became
simpler to call him bishop to the In
dams. More than fifty times did he
make the long journey from the north
west to Warrington to tell the story
of the Indians wrongs and many times
he encountered pitiful failure be-
cause he could find no one person in
authority. Authority was vested in
boards and bureaus and hedged about
with investigations. A notable excep-
ton was his first interview with Pres
ident Cleveland. He explained how
the grasping white Spectator had
moved on to Indian lands. damned the
rivers and let the waters overflow the
Indians grain fields. President Cleve-
land exclaimed that 1t was burning
shame. He sent for the secretary Of
me interior. asked him to take the
statement from the bishops own
mouth, indorsed it, and sent it with an
urgent message to congress. Within a
week the long-sufrering Indians were
reimbursed for their great loss.
