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

The steamer Corwin punished a tribe of

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.

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

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

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

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,

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.

recommend a large reduction in internal
revenue, and that his recommendation will
be indorsed by Secretary Folger and Presi

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.

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.
