while he would like to see
the change made for some reasons,
is opposed to It for others. It would
deprive the Indians of much of the

they most need, such as the house

1t is feared that if the children
are allowed to 20 to their homes each
night they will never get out of the
Indian habits Of life. There are now
$50 children at the Fort Simcoe

the ways Of the white man, and to
make such a change as proposed ~

suit disastrously for the Indians.

The Trouble With Hayti.

When the Brigadier-Generals OF an
army, gaudiiy IL not completely uni-
formed, solicit the smallest gratuities
from a stranger, and their soldiers do
chores about the capital to exc out pit
tance of fifty cents week, something Is
rotten in the State.
When wharves decay and sink into the
sea; when telephone wires sag and the
poles fall down; when street lamps are
unlit at night and travel ia by the North
Star: when public parks return to nature
and land crabs rustic through the cactus;
when refuse cumberB cutters, while
fetid odors taint the air and the harbor
swirns in filth-something Is radically
wrong in the State.
Such is Port au Prince, as General
ANTOINE SIMON, elevated by his bayo-
nets, enters upon the Presidency Of
Hayti and promises law and order,
protection TO aliens, public works, con-
cessions and progress, and the uplift
Of his people. There is a new admin
istration, but will there Be q new order,
compelling a moral awakening and
