VORSYTHE'S CASE DISCUSSED-—CAPT. CAPRON'®. PART AT WOUNDED KNEE—THE PAPOOSE CHRIST- ENED FOR MES. NAILOR NOT AN ORPHAN. ‘Staff Correspondence of The Evening Star. Prive River, 8. D., January 15. If a vote were taken at Pine Ridge today on the question of military versus civilian Indian agents and the right of suffrage was restricted to the Indians it would reveal an overwhelw- | ing sentiment favorable to military contro! of the red man’s reservations. Capt. Pierce has been here but two days, yet things are assum- ing a much brighter appearance so far as the welfare of the Indian is concerned. The duties of an Indian agent, when properly performed, are extremely onerous, so the assignment of a captain in the army to such a position cannot be regarded asa desirable change if the feel- ings of the captain enter into the calculation. But few of the officers here, and they only the | most vigorously industrious, would care to leave their companies for the seclusion of a reservation. Gen. Miles continues to insist | that military agents are the only persons who | can keep the copper-colored savage in that | state of existence which ix healthy for both the aboriginal ward of the nation and the settler who hax to skirmish for him- self. The change of Indian sentiment, now favorable to military domination or pa- ternalism or whatever else you care to call it, is quite recent, but it bids to lust for nome A small minority still feel that the rule of the army officer ix too strict, but the great maas of popular and copper-tinted opinion is to the effect that no military agent d be more unsatisfactory than some of the civilian author- ities have been. Inan abstract manner the Indian_ hates a soldier, but by this time certain amount of respect. Cupt. Pier: most successful as an agent at San C where hostile Apaches frequently stir up, and these Indians are going to give hima fair trial before they render an opinion as to his ability and even handed dealing. GEN. MILES’ IDEA OF IT. While Gen. Miles refuses to discuss the ques- tion at this time still it is generally known that he is striving with the powers that be to | have the number of military agents increased. | He has called attention officially to the fact that | nearly all of the Indian tribes in the United | States have at one time or another been subju- gated by the army and it is indisputably true that many of those same tribes afterward took advantage of civil administration to secure a | fresh supply of arms and a wealth of horsetlesh, which, with the previous experience of the warriors, made the situation more dangerous than ever before. Gen. Miles is evidently not of the opinion that the growth of railways and of settlements, combined with the departure of the buffalo, has compelled a cessation of In- dian war, for he remarked to a group of officers the other evening that while the west has been growing with marvelous rapidity durin, the past sixteen years the aimy hac been called upon to do active service in nine separate and distinct Indian campaigns within that period. ‘The Indians had discovered that good beef, of which there was an immense sup: ply, was more easily procured than buffalo, even when the hills and valleys were black with the wild food. It was also very plain, and the keen intellect of the savage grisped the situation, that first-class borsetlesh was to be rase-growing corner of the northwest: a civilized condition of affairs that their own horses were tired out. Asa matter of fact the Indians of North America were never #0 thoroughly e for fight as they fret this time.” With these facts ‘before his eves and evident to every clear-sighted man on the frontier it is but little wonder that Gen. Miles insists on the appointment of military agents; of men who, know- ing that they and their comrades must do the most of what fighting may be necessary, will do everything reasonable to remove ali causes of discontent and to prevent outbreak of any deseription. There is undoubtedly a great deal of dissatisfaction among the Indians of the northwest, due almost entirely to go ernmental failure of some kind, and if the g' ernment will not make good its promises to its wards Gen. Miles thinks it only fair to white settlers that the Indians be compelled to starve under a form of supervision which would pre- vent the sacrifice of any other lives than those of the Indians themselves. So far as Gen. Miles is concerned, whether there be more or less of military rule on the reservations, that portion of the army known as the division of the Missouri will be kept in the highest possible state of efficiency, every component part of it ready to take the field at a moment's notice. DICUSSING THE FORSYTHE MATTE. Waiting for somethin to happen is a condi- tion which develops conversational inclinations even among those who are not ordinarily loquacious. For days the hostiles have been within easy reach of the troops and. a fight has been continuously imminent, but the military mind does not seem to suffer any strain while beneath the shadow of a great struggle. Ofti- cers and men have talked more than a little of the probabilities and possibilities of one con- clusive battle, and this they do openly, but when they are sitting around a red-hot stove in their tents they whixper a good deal about the Forsythe matter. The amount of interest felt | and quietly expressed in this one-sided contro- | versy is not surprising. for Gen. Forsythe has agreat number of fricnds and sympathizers. ie controversy hus undoubtedly been one- sided (that sounds like an Irishism), for up to the present time none of those acquainted with the facts have been able to publicly de- clare themselves on the subject. Two officers— Maj. Kent, division inspector general, and Capt. Baldwin—have, under the direction of Gen. Miles, been investigating the matter, and it was therefore impossible for any of the soldiers who were at Wounded Kuee to open their mouths until the board and Gen. Milesand Secretary Proctor and President Harrison have each done their respective parts toward set- thing a much-vexed question. There are two widely ted lines of opinion in camp just now. The officers who are of one mind with. Gen. Miles insist that he acted with consider- able leniency toward Gen. Forsythe, in that he did not order a court-martial. Such « court might have concluded the case within twenty- four hours. This would seem to imply that Gen. Forsythe was guilty of disobedience. On the other side it is claimed that the charge of disobedience of orders, never more than covertly made, cannot hold for a moment. FORSYTHE ACTED AS A CAVALRYMAN. Gen. Forsythe was ordered to disarm Big Foot's band and proceeded to fulfil bis mission in the manner which his long experience as a soldier told him was proper. He showed the | Indians his strength for peaceful purposes; he wanted them to know that any attempt ut fight- ing could only result disastrously so far as they were concerned. It is possible that the ge eral believed strife improbabie, but his friends here claim that every proper precaution was taken. Some of those who cehsure him have that it would have been better had be dug riffe pits and stationed a sufficient foree therein to nip any treacherous movement in the bud, but that argumentative suggestion would hardly receive serious consideration in ‘the mind of any practical tactician. Gen. Forsythe commanded a force of cavalry, and had ‘he. ride-pitted his men there can be no doubt that he would have been the butt of | who was in Washington on December 29. and join with them in | elai of the fight at Wounded Knee, and they must be if the conviction is seated | in ting of civilization was done by the seventh ca Now the seventh undoub did gallan' work the Hotchkiss which did the portion of the - The business of the soldier is to kill, and he who kills the most is the greatest saldier; therefore, it is only right that the deeds of all concerned should’ receive equitable treatment at the bands of those who wnite daily history. There were four of these Hotchkiss guns at Wounded Knee. — They yore jmanned by men of light battery E, first artillery, and the battery was commanded Captain Allyn Capron. Attuched to the battery was Second Lieut. Hawthorne of the second artillery. It has been asserted and reasserted in nearly every pe of prominence in the country that the tery fired into the involuntarily mixed up aggregation of soldiers, bucks, squaws an children as soon as the Indians made their un- expected attack. Nobody seems to know why such a vicious charge should be made against civilized and humane men, but it has been made and cireulated with inuch pernicious nc- tivity. As a matter of fact not a shot was fired from any gun in the battery until there was sufticient aud clearly detined space separatin the whites and the reds, this by Capt. Capron express order. Not a soldier was hit by a Hotchkiss missile, while on the other hand but very few Indians succeeded in getting away from the terrible projectiles. In the New York World of the 8th instant is a paragraph to the effect that Lieut. Garlington of the seventh cavalry commanded a Hotehl severcly wounded. Licut. Gazlington,as.a matter of fact, made a very plucky fight in his capacity aga cavalry officer, but he had no more to do with any of the Hotchkiss guns than anybody ieut. Hawthorne did work one of the guns—served it with deadly effect—until he was severely wounded, and then he gave way to Corp. Paul H, Weinert, who had charge of the gun until | the fight was over. ‘The corporal has been aud | is being highly complimented for his tidelity and ability. ‘Those who know anything of the Wounded Knee fight are unanimously of the opinion that the first artillery, Capt. Capron, Lieut. Hawthorne and the men of light battery wid all been purposely slighted in the pub- lished stories of tho affairs ‘The foregoing statement is a chunk of truth. THAT INDIAN PAPPOOSE. Let Allison Nailor rejoice and be glad! Neither he nor Mrs. Nailor will be called upon to attend to the little Indian girl who was named for Mrs. Nailor. Ihave seen the infant and this morning stumbled across the fact that the child is not as much of an orphan as Maj. Jobn M. Burke supposed she was when he sug- gested that she be christened Maggie C. Nailor. Little Maggie is a chubby, black-eyed, long- haired full-biood of about four years of age. With her mother she was a part of Big Foot’s band, and on the morning of the fight at Wounded Knee she was temporarily placed in the care of another sqnaw because Maggie's mother anticipated trouble and wanted her hands free to do a little shooting on her own account. At five minutes past nine the first shot was fired by a crazy Indian and then fol- | lowed @ hail of death. ‘The squaw who bad | charge of Mcggie was killed and the little eop- per-colored mite rolled into a gully, where it | ed observation on that awful’ Mond hen came a snow storm, a blizzard of th most searching deseription,continuing for fort; cight uours.

Alongside of the child, on the battlefield, was the corpse of a squaw. and as there were no other dead women in that vieinity it was a very natural inference that it was the little one mother.

Suicide of a Baltimore Woman. Mrs. Anna C. Strong, aged fifty, went to the business office of her husband, Ralph Strong, on Hanover street, in Baltimore, on Saturday afternoon. She had a pistol in one hand. In the other sbe carried a pistol and her marriage certificate wrapped in a handkerchief. She planted herself in the doorway and, looking squarely at her husband, shot herself dead. The police believe that the woman intended to first shoot her husband and then to kill herself, but forgot her intention in her excitement and only destroyed herself. She was made mad, it seems, by the fear that her husband was about to abandon her on the ground that he had mar- ried beneath his station se Eas The Harlem Ship Canal ‘The publication of the beginning of a suit aguinst the New York Central railroad by D.

Gov. has appointed a com- missioner to go to Washington to lay the matter before Secretary Noble, and formally demand that 35,000 non-citizens now in the Choctaw Nation be expelled, and if the Secretary does not act promptly, the matter will be laid before Congress. —+0o— ‘The Westinghouse Creditors. The creditors of the Westinghouse Electric Company met Saturday at Pittsburg. It was stated that $175,000 are due Pittsburg ercditors and $300,000 to outside creditors. Vice Presi- dent Bannister told the committee that the company was doing well. The average daily business of the company for three months past was $15,000, and with proper management the company will pay $600,000 a year. A repre- sentative of Mr. Wostinghouse said the ex- penses had been reduced $600,000 per year. A proposition was offered the directors ‘to sign, saying they would aceept preferred stock at par, provided the company can well 600 at $50 (par).

He says: PANDERING TO THE TRIBE and its socialisms, as most of our government and mission plans do, is the principal reason why the Indians have not advanced more and are not now advancing as rapidly as they ought. We easily inculeate principles of American citizensh{p and self-eupport into the individual in the schools located where such exumples and principles pre ‘The misfortune is that the only fatnre h stich youth are invited is that of the reservation, where their new prin- ciples are not only most unpopular, but in many cases interdicted.

IMPORTUNATE RELATIVES AND FRIENDS. Their relations and friends come upon them with demands for a share of their earnings, and often before they receive their pay it is all promised in «mall sums to such relations and friends, who do not and will not work. In but few of ‘the tribes have allotments been made and markets are remote. There is, therefore, on the agricultural line at the agencies very lit= tle encouragement to the individual. No manu- factories of any kind nor commercial interests, except the few Indign traderships, are allowed upon the reservations, and there ix no oppor- tunity, outside the very limited agency needs, for them to obtain employment.

In my judgment it should be the duty of every Indian school, whether governmental or mission, agency or remote from the agency, as well as the duty of the Indian agent and other Indian service employes, to forward Indian youth and worthy Indians of any age into civilized communities und the honorable ea- ployments of civilized life and to constantly direct the atiention of all Indians that wa It has been urged against industrial training of this and oth ols that the trades taught are of no practical value to them on thei turn to their agencies. ‘This presupposes that the Indians are to always remain as they are in an ij int tribal condition.

By far the largest number of Indians who in this generation will be self-supporting will be reason of their knowledge of fr: tions but by their ability to doa good day's work in the office or field or at the bench. ON THE RESERVATIONS. Very few of those who have returned to the reservations after three or more years with us |ut are able to support themselves by labor in any civilized community. If they do not do so on the reservations it is the fault of the condi- tions existing there. My inquiries show that our pupils returned to the reservations average quite as many successes as the pupils of any other school. But this ix not an encouraging fact as bearing upon the progress of the tribes toward citizenship, for the reason that, even though all were successful, we reinforce the tribal plan by remanding them to the reserva- tionsand so build up a separate claus and race of people more out of harmony with the gov- ernment and genercl interests of the country because of the strength gained by education. No duty rests upon cithe? the government or charitable people to create so-called nations like the Cherokees, Creeks and others, where the freedom and rights of the individual are chained to socialism and ernshed by oligarchy. A special school system for each tribe, whether arranged after our state public school oralong church and mission school lines, or both, wil! segregute and weld the tribes into separate and petty nations as surely in the future us it has done in the past. On the con- trary, if the youth of the tribes are sent into our already organized public school systems and from these encouraged to associate und to join in their interests with the nation at large | tribal socialists, with all their perplexing clogs and expense to the government, will soon merge into and disappear in the body politie of the country. individually feei able to When the government TO BUILD INDIANS IX. will be learned only by experi- rly as well expect to get the spirit of “American citizenship into the negroes in mass in Africa as to try to get_it into the In- dians in mass on the “reservations under the uce of tribal surroundings.

History will record that the drivin back and reservating course pursued toward the red race fur exceeded the other in gross inhumanity. “The argument used by some self-consti- tuted friends of the Indians, which has been so potent in recalling Indian yough from the many opportunities of busy civilized sur- roundings to their homes and the tribes so bar- | ren of opportunities, that we are separating and breaking up families,is, in the light of con- jons in America, most weak and absurd.
