THE FUTURE Of THE INDIAB The eovernment pet, the sad-eyed red man, must learn to labor for his daily bread, even as his despised white bretheren are now compelled to do. The fiat has gone forth and nnless congress interferes with or upsets Secretary Teller's plans, the mnmnni Annual annronriation for VIIVi uvw A t a feeding and keeping the Indians in idleness will be largely reduced and will finally disappear from the list of appropiiations, so says an exchange- In accordance with orders from the Secretary, Commissioner Price has issued a circular to all Indian agents instructing them to announce to their several charges the fact that the sec retary will recommend to Congress a reduction of the appropriation for the Indians, and that they must regard thts as an indication that they shall speedily learn to support themselves in agricultural and other pursuits, with the understanding that the change ot policy will be continued until the Indians are self-supporting. ORIGIN Of FREE TRADE AGITATION. During the Presidential campaign of 1880, the claim that free trade was advocated in the interests of me chanics, artisans and factory hands was effectually exploded. The howl ins against the tariff is as vehement s ever; but, if the motive of the out cry be asked nowadays, one is told that the interests of the Western farmers are being trampled upon by the protectionists. The free traders, who were so full of compassion for the oppressed, working men of the East, have suddenly wrenched their vmnathiea awav from that class j i - since the said Eastern workingmen voted solidly for protection, and have transfered their compassion to the Western farmers, who are rather unpromising subjects for sympathy since they do not appear to realize their misery. According to the free trade theorists, a Western farmer ahould be a weary looking man in a chronic state ot discouragement, whereas, in fact, he is an energetic good oatured fellow with no idoa that he is being imposed upon. Now why this waste of pity? Why this excessive anxiety concerning an ap parently well satisfied class? The explanation is in the origin of the free tradedoctrine. The free tra ders of America are professional howlers. So says the Walla Walla Union. They are smart Alecks whose only way of attracting atten tion is advocacy of some new theory. They are by turns Greenbackers, Prohibitionists, High License Men, Civil Service Reformers and nothing long. Does it ever occur to these fellows that England has a free trade Dolicv. and yet, of the hundreds of thousands of workingmen who have come from that country to this, few have gone back? All through the Western states are colonies of Eng lish ' farmers. Farm laborers they were in England, farm owners they are here. They would not choose the United States for their home if they were not better off here. At a matter of fact, not one English work ingman in twenty ever returns to England to live, after a year's stay in America. Be is far more likely to go to England for a brief visit,, and bring back with him to the United States all his kith and kin. Since with the free trade policy, England is not - desirable a residence as this country with its protective legisla tion, what is the sense of immitating England in this matter? Let free trade break down home manufacturers, and foreign capital ists will not be slow to advance their margins. The substantial backing for ail the free Jade campaigns comes directly fromPtoreiun capital ist, Their allies in the United States arc not. nor have thev been, the friends of American industry. Ex, Thfl'commander of- the revenne cutter Corwin, haa written a letterf rom Ounalaska stating Msat he sailed far into the Arctic eeean, to (Point Harrow, .and found open water which extended as far as the eye cooid -reach.

Some wiseacre in physiology has discov ered that a person should always lie on the right side. But what are you going to do if yon are editing a democratic newspaper. "A man never realizes the littleness of his own abilities' so much r a when, after,black ing hia own boots, he is greeted by the first boy he meets with the customary "shine?" Baker City recently livied a tax to build a school houso. Out of seventeen votes against the tax only fire spelled the word correctly. "Tacks" was the way it was most frequently spelled. The body of a man was found recently near Freeport W. T., with eleven buck shot wounds in him, and was supposed to have been murdered for his money. Mr. Jasper Meierhan, of New Castle, came over from Sixes last week. He re ports that iron ore has been discovered in large ledges in the Sixes country. Coal and limestone are also found in large quantities in the above section. Miss Gertude Wolford was thrown from a buggy and killed, about four miles from Silverton, Marion county, recently. Mr. Chas. Hodge, of Portland, passed through Oakland recently on business con nected with the Cinnabar mines. At an annual reunion of teachers at Rose burg among other things they passed the following resolution. Resolved That we tender our thanks to Prof. McElroy for his zeal in the cause of education, and that we wish him abundant success in his labors in. improving the public school system of Oregon. Portland is promised a $500,000 hotel as soon the necessary groud is secured. Five men by the name of Win. H. Ken nedy claim to have been elected coroner of New York. There are 2,671 Yonng Men's Christian Associations in the world, 824 of which are in the United States. The suit of Samuel Wilkeson against Henry Ward Beecher, for breach of contract in not completing the "Life of Christ," after receiving $10,000 as an advance payment, is on trial in New York. The steamship Westphalia collided with an unknown steamer off the English coast On Monday night, and it is feared the latter was lost with all on board. The West phalia was badly damaged, but reached Portsmouth. The steamer Corwin punished a tribe of belligerent Alaska Indians recently by shell ing their village and destroying it. Several savages were killed. The severe lesson was needed because the Indians had been guilty of many acts of cruelty toward the whites. Frank .Tames is lionized at Independence, Mo. His cell is fitted up like a palace and he is royally fed, admiring and sympathiz ing citizens having subscribed funds for his benefit. When a person calls to see James, he must send his card to the prisoner. If he is a man of distinction, he is admitted; oth erwise he is informed that James is indis posed and cannot receive company. This coddling and pampering of a murderer and bandit can have nothing but a bad influence on the rising generation. The potato crop' having failed in the coun ties of Donegal, Clare and Roscommon, in Ireland, a famine is imminent, and the au thorities state that the prospect was never worse since the famine in 1846. The dead letter office is improperly named. It f anything but dead. It is the great sea into which J8 poured every imagin able thing which people ever handle and is a regular- curiosity shop. Money received here from stray letters ranges .from $75,000 to $100,000 per year. Nearly half the amount is never returned to owners because, for various causes, they cannot be found. Some idea of the articles accumulated Uiay be gained when it is stated that the list, (including wearing apparel of all kinds), embraces 2,219 miscellaneous articles. 1,375 pieces of jewelry, some very valuable 1,375 books, treating on almost every sub ject, 269 chromos, 217 pieces of sheet music, and 102 stereoscopic views. TELEC-RHMS. New York, Nov. 19. The electric storm yesterday extended frem Beaton as far west as Ogden and yesterday its influence was still felt in certain localities so that tele graphic communication was considered in terrupted. Various experiments were tried by telegraphers during the prevalence of the storm to work the wires and dispose of the great accumulation of business, but with little success, until it was discovered that by taking two wires from the ground from between two given points and joining their ends a circuit was formed that could be opened. In this way eight wires between Buffalo and Chicago were made to do the service of four. Electricians seem to agree that the disturbance was unlike any here tofore experienced, as it appeared to act upon the wires in strong waves, causing constant changing ef polarity of currents. New York, Nov. 19. Governor Sheldon of New Mexico, in an interview, said he believed New Mexico to be the wealthiest as regards minerals of all the territories, and for fruits and vegetables it was unparalleled. Under the new order of thing's Sheldon said that immigrants were pouring in steadily, new towns were springing up, railroad com munication was being rapidly developed and people were growing prosperous and con tented. . Washington r Nov. 19. At the approach ing session of congress an effort is to be made to secure the passage of the bill mak ing bonds, of the district of Colombia re ceivable as security for national bank cir culation. Several members of the finance committee are in favor of this object Prom inent bankers who are supporting the meas ure say that these non taxable bonds hav ing a long time to run, and the principal and interest being secured by a .pledge of the government, art as desirable as govern. 1 xessni sssssssl Since Nov. 1. There have been received at tho treasury department $l,S96,20O of 3 J per cent bonds for conversion into 30. Previous to Nov. 1st there were received $259,332,500 of 3 J per cents for conversion. New York, Nov. 19. The freight market per clipper route remains very quiet and outwardly there is no appearance of future activity, although by some It is thought there will be some improvement by the close of the year. Tonnage is still very scarce and available vessels are held at full prices. California lines have all they can handle during the remainder of the year. Pittsburg, Nov. 20. Richard Hoffman a miraculously cured cripple, told the story of his restoration last night in the Pigeon Creek Presbyterian church near Bentley ville to as many people as the church could possibly hold. The inhabitants of that sec tion are greatly excited over the case and can scarcely think of anything else. They come for miles in every direction to have Hoffman recite his wonderful story. The church was surrounded by hundreds of ve hicles of all descriptions. The skeptics were few. Hoffman openod the services by asking the congregation to rise while he prayed. He thanked the Lord sor his grace in curing him of a disease which men of this world had vainly attempted to conquer. He was clad now he had suffered yeirs of misery because it enabled him to show the world tho power of the Lord. Many women of the congregation broke into violont tears before the prayer ended. After that Hoff man proceeded to tell in a sincere manner the story of his cure. There were none who were not impressed with the honesty of his belief that he had really been cured by a miracle. He intends, if his strength holds out, to preach throughout all western Pennsylvania. Toledo. 0., Nov. 20. O'Conner, the ex priest who was interferred with by a mob here last Sunday night, delivered his lecture in the opera house last evening to about 800 people on "Why I left the Catholic Church." In anticipation of further trouble 40 officers were at and in the hall and five companies of military were at their armories awaiting further orders. Public sentiment, however, was so strong in favor of protect ing him in the right to speak that there was little trouble in preserving order, and aside from a few slight interruptions no trouble occurred. Two or three men who inter rupted the speaker were promptly arrested. New York, Nov. 20. The irial of the suit of Wilkinson vs. Henry Ward Beecher, for damages for breach of contract in failine 'to complete the "Tifepf Christ," was resum ed yesterday. Beecher occupied the wit ness stand. At the conclusion of Beechers testimony ihe judge dismissed the case. Omaha, Nov. 20. Senator Grover, of Oregon, who passed through this city Fri day en route for Washington, told a reporter that the democrats on the Pacific coast are gratified over the succes of their party in the east and being able to supliment it with a democratic majority in California. While the wave came too late to reach Ore gon, democrats there are not discouraged. Politicians in California and Oregon already speak of nominating governor elect Cleve land, of New York, for president in 1884, if he should develop in his new field ad ministrative qualities like those which char actemed his administration of the city of Buffalo, which qualities constitute the pres sent need of the people. In the event o Cleveland's nomination Governor Stoneman, f 1.1. a oi iauiomia, wns oe tne lavonte tor vice president. Justice Fields, however, has many friends as a candidate for president. Washington, Nov. 20. Indian Commis sioner Price is informed by Judge Edmonds, chairman of the Sioux commission, that 8000 Yankton and Ogallala Sioux Indians at Pine river agency, Dakota, have agreed to sepa rate into reservations of limited proportions. The Indians at Rosebud agency had pre viously agreed to separate reservations, and aa the Indians at these two agencies com prise more than half of the Sioux nation, the work of the commission is practically accomplished. The object of the commis sion in having the Indians agree to select separate reservations is to concentrate all tho Indians in about one-half the present reservation in order that the other half may be thrown open to the public. Pittsburg, Nov. 21. An old and exten sive manufacturer who was intrviewed to day on the iron and steel outlook, and the decrease in the price of steel was perfectly legitimate and was caused'not by any one man or set of men, but by a natural sequence of events and the laws of supply and de mand. In 17 years' experience he never knew the steel business as dull as at present. Philadelphia, Nov. 21. Iron and steel men here do not believe the reports of the general depression in the rolling mill in dustry in the west. At the monthly meet ing of rolling mill proprietors here yester day rat -4 were reduced two-tenths of one percent, and nnder this scedule price of labor will be reduced 5 per cent, on Dec., 1, so that no loss will be sustained in the busi ness Harrisburg, Nov. 21. A fire is raging in the Lykens mine. John Ereely, fire boss, Geo. Bainbridgo and Oscar Cook narrowly escaped suffocation. All efforts to check the flames arc futtle. The fire has broken out eighty yards further down the slope, if the air should change and force the fiames which are now coming op, back into the mine there is danger of driving the fire to the Lykens valley 'mill. One thousand five hundred men and boys are thrown out of employment. New York, Nov. 21. Gilbert Partbrick, better dnown as Gilpatrick, the oldest liv ing jockey in America, who rode Lexington, Lecompte and many other famous races in this country, and Prioress, Starke, Umpire and others in England, for Ten Broeck, is dying of pneumonia at 433 Second avenue. He is sixtyyears old and with his wife is in very straightened circumstances. Washington, Nov. 21. In referring to the distribution of coin and paper currency, the comptroller of the currency says: From November 1, 1881, to November 1, 2862. the production of gold by the mines of the United is estimated at $42,359,021, and the amount of gold exported from the country j in excess ol the amount import:! ia $36,- 122.53S; difference, $7,236,485, increased during the year. The director of the, mint estimates that $2,700,000 of this amount has been used in the arts, leaving $4, 536, -485 as the increase in the stock of gold re maining in the country and available for circulation; total excess of exports of gold over imports from date of resumption tt November I, 1882, haa been $161,311,578, and the total gold products of the mints of the United States for the same period is estimated At $147,509,021. Washington, Nov. 21. The cabinet meeting to-day was quite brief and unim portant, being only a discussion relative to the contents of the annual reports, and the principal topic being with regard to internal revenue. It is asserted by persons in posi tion to know, that Commissioner Raum will recommend a large reduction in internal revenue, and that his recommendation will be indorsed by Secretary Folger and Presi dent Arthur. Montreal, Nov. 21. A claim for a million dollars will be preferred against the United States from this province for wrongfully charging. 20 per cent, duty on hay imported, when the proper duty was only 10 "per cent. Dublin, Nov. 21. The remaining four men charged with complicity in the murder of the Joyce family who had not yet been brought to trial to-day pleaded guilty and threw themselves on the clemency of the court. They were sentenced to death. Three of the men sentenced to be hanged fot the murder offithe Joyce family arrived in Galway this evening under a strong guard. They were hooted at by a large crowd. After the conclusion of the Joyce murder trial the juryman who had been one of the armed party which attacked the houses in county Clare, was sentenced to seven years penal servitude. Slaking Stsei Balls. Pittsburg, JNov. m A movement is on foot in Wheeling to utterly revolutionize the iron manufacturing business of that city and of the whole country. The plan of iron and nail manufacturers there is to do entirely aTraj- with puddling, puddlers and of course puddlers' stiikes. A syndicate formed in Wheeling during the recent troublesome strike have held a series of star chamber sessions, the result of which has been the sending of one of Wheeling's most promi nent mill managers, Frank J. Herendon, to this City to arrange preliminaries for putting in operation tho new plan. He said last night: "We calculate in Wheeling that we make above three sevenths of the nails made in the United States. Over five thousand puddlers are employed in pud aimgiron wnicn we cut into nails. 1 am placing conrracts where they may bo con eluded at any time most suitable to the Wheeling syndicate for all. Necessary equipments, to be found in a first class Bessemer works. The syndicate have an unlimited command of money and will break ground in January for the new works. They will have a capacity to start with of 5000 tons per year of low carbon steel. This out put the syndicate will divide-up into con signments according to the capacity of the different nail miib represented and each will cet its allotment of so many car loads of steel per day from the Bessemer mill. The principal mills in the Wheeling district are connected with the new enterprise. When we begin turning out ateel nails in Wheel mg all other nail mills in the country must follow suit or lose their trade, at least, that is the way it has been figured ont by the best nail experts in Wheeling. The move is the most important one made in years in the iron business and will revolutionize the trade of this country. If the movement is a success in five years puddled iron will not be in the market," Sugges tea Tariff Changes. Washington, Nov. 20. The argument of the Metropolitan Industrial League before the tariff commission, prepared by Chas. S. Hill, of the state department, has just been issued from the government printing office in a velume of 200 paces, supplied with diagrams showing the degree of infln ence that the several conditions affecting the results of the tariff have in the principal countries of the world. Mr. Hill recom mends a rational reduction and abolition of the duplex system in cotton goods, an in crease of rates in hemp, jute and flax, pro tection to American wines and brandies against foreign adulterations, material changes in rates in metals and minerals, and that a duty of $2 per ton be placed on iron ore; also slight modifications in bread stuffs, provisions and animals. The exist ing average rates of sugars are generally Indorsed- But abolition of the duplex rates is strongly urged. Silk culture and reeling is also recommended; the abolition of duty on lumber is likewise advised. In wool and woolen goods a simplification and consis tent revision contemplating a change from the duplex system to an ad valorem is rec ommended. A duty of ten per cent on qui nine is advised. To the free list is added 25 articles heretofore rated, among which are spirits ot turpentine, sponges, crude salt pet re, rosjn, asphaltum and nitrate of lead. A material change is recommended in the internal revenue tax involving the abolition pf the tax on most articles now specified. Referring to the revival of our merchant marine, Mr. Hill says: "In our industries at home aa well as in our credit abroad there is no source of personal em plooment and national pride so great as ship building. Congress properly should give subvention to our mail transports and the demand for American ships will imme diately prove the fallacy sad absurdity of the saying that 'Americans cannot build ships,' and the foolish assertion that a tariff of five per cent, on a ship's cost for crude material could affect the conditions of our shipping community. A tariff tribunal composed of the U. S. commissioner of cus toms, a representative selected from- the merchants or manufacturers, and a third abitrator selected by both, similar to the provision of the tariff law of France, is ear nestly recommended. According to a statement recently pub lished, the purchases of sSver for coinage by the mints of the United States during the year amounted to $23,627,229 ounces, at a cost of 24.136,942. The, profits on . this silver coinage to the Government ameunted to$3,444,S7. Chinese Murderer. Some Weeks ago Dewar, a tax-collector at Kamloops, British Columbia, was missed from his post and it Was suspicion ed that he had been murdered for his money. About two weeks ago suspicion pointed toward a Chinaman, nicknamed "Smart Aleck," who disappeared ooincidently with Dewar." A search of the Chinaman's cabin finally re vealed the murdered body of Dewar buried ten feet below tho surface. The murderer had run a drift from his cellar into the bank and carefully concealed the opening. Smart Aleck was heard from in the vicinity of Fort.Colville and a special constable went in search of him a few days ago. Death of Chief Wlnnemuoca. Hhis Royal Highness Winnemncca, Chief of the Piute Nation, is no more. He passed in his cheeks, gave up the ghost, died near Coppersmith's ranch in Surprise Valley, last Friday, and was buried with nil 'the pomp and ceremony usual npon the demise of Piute royalty. After the funeral was over, the women returned to camp and re lieved their troubled hearts by stoning te death the young wife of the dead chief and her three-year-old child, both of whom had been prisoners for two months, awaiting the death of the chief to receive this awful re ward. The whites were kept in ignorance of this frightful business until after the dreadful affair had been consummated On several occasions within the past two Weeks the unfortunate squaw, knowing the awful fate that awaited her, attempted to take her own life and that of her child, bnt was pre vented by the guard that was constantly kept over her. In this enlightened nine teenth century it seems impossible that an act so fiendish could be perpetrated even by savages. Reno Journal. LEGAL. Boy ton as a Lecturer. Capt. Paul Boyton is planning another venturesome undertaking, namely, to float down the Colorado river from its source to its mouth. In describing his project the other day he talked so well that a reporter asked him why he did not enter the lecture field. "No, sir," he answered "I've had enough of that. My last experience was at Helena, Arkansas. I was forced by the people there on my voyage down the Miss issippi to stop over for a lecture. I couldn't speak in my rubber suit. I hadn't my bag gago. The Mavor lent me his dress-coat and a white hankerchief, which he tied very artistically around my neck as a cravat. The doctor promised me the trousers. He was called by a patient and didn't turn up. The stage was a small one; the people were howling. The Mayor fixed up a table cov ered so with a red cloth that nothing below could be seen. I was forced on, I got to talking and was well received. When I came to tell about my encounter with a shark I became a little excited forgot about ray costume, stapped to one side of the table and well, when the audience yelled with laughter I made a bee-line for the ' green room, and I havent lectured Bince." Trampled to Death. Sunday evening about 6 o'clock as Mr. E. Wolford of Marion County, was returning home from Silverton, where he had been with his two daughters to attend the dedi cation services of the new M. E. chnrch, the horses became frightened and ran off a bridge about four miles from that place. The carriage was upset by the tall, and Gertude Wolford was thrown nnder the horses feet and she was tramped to death A little nine year old daughter of John Wol ford was also an occupant of the buggy, and sustained some injouri.es. The balance of the party escaped unhurt. The little girl and the remains of Miss Gerturde were carr ed to a farm house about two miles further on. The unfortunate lady was abont 21 years ef age. The funeral took place at Silverton yesterday. Standard. Another Kailroad Company Organized, It is stated that a number of prominent gentlemen met recently and signed articles of incorporation and organized the Grand Continental Railroad Company. The capi tal stock is $35,000,000. The object is to build a line of railroad from Quincy south east to Cincinnati, Ohio, and northwest to Bismarck, Dakota Territory, with a branch to the south line of British Columbia, thereby connecting Chesapeake Bay and Pu get sound, rue gentlemen present were leading men from different States and sec tions throughout which the line is to pass.
