THE BEE PUBLISHING CO.. PROPS’ 0. ROSEWATER,]Editor. A. H. Fitch, Manager Daily,Circulation, P 0. Box, 488 Omaha, Neb, itances shom.d be ATIA. Tir democrats are not troubling them. selves about Cleveland’s boots. 1t is the booty that they are after. 1¥ there is any virtue In advertising, the New Orleans world's exposition ought to prove the greatest success ever known, Tue woman suffragists have entered a formal protest against the admisslon of Dakota as a state on a constitution ex- clusively for men, That settles the fate of Dakota, Tur Bee is anxious to have the legis- lature sit down on Brad. Slaughter, standing candidato for chief clerk of the House, —Hastings Gazette.Journal, Yes, and sit bown on him hard. Hehas been living off the legislature long enough, but there are other leeches that ought to be shelved along with him. Ir s sald that lightning does not strike twice in the same place. This is not trae, however, with regard to the office of sheriff of Krie county, New York. Po- Htical lightning bas struck that place several times of late years. Cleveland got hls start there, and his successor, John B. Weber, has been elected to con- gress. Sexator Vax Wryck's resolution to have commercial treaties dlscussed in open sesaion is just to the point. The public and the press ought to know something abbut these agreements with other na- tlonalities especially on business matters, before they are signed, eealed and de- livered. LiNcoLy has organized an exposition association, with a capital stock of $30,- 000. The principal object of the organi- zation is to secure the Nebraska state falr for the next five years, and 1t looks very much as if Lincoln would succeed, as Omaha is doing nothing in the matter. 1t is high time for Omaha to wake up and make some effort to capture thls prize. Tue authorities of the clty of Lima, in Peru, evidently do not appreclate hum- bug’ They belleve that advertisers should fulfill their promises, and hence they heavily fined a company of bull- fighters who furnished sport that was in- ferior to what the citizens had been led to expect from the highly éxciting adver- tisements, AccoRDING to the testimony of a wit- ness in the investigation of the alleged {rregularities in the first comptroller’s of- fice In Washington, Mr. Barker is a universal and mastodonical llar—the grandest liar of the age. Thus is the laurel wreath rudely snatched from the brow of “‘Gath,” who up to this time was universally conceded to be the father of fabrications. SERGEANT BarEs, who distingulshed himself by tramping through the south and waving the stars and stripes along his pathway, is not only sick but so fi- nancially embarrassed that he has been obliged to part with his trusty sabre, which a constable captured and sold for debt. If Sergeant Bates is ot already drawing a pension, he ought to be put on the pension lis has written a long letter to the prosecut- ing attorney of Nodaway county in that state, urging vigorous measures for the arrest and trlal of the lynchers of *‘Oma- ha” Charley. Considering the governor's alllance with the Ford boys for the pur- pose of extirpating Jesse James, his last communication does not seem to possess the jewe[ of consistency. Tuk Pullman car company has always malntained that it is not responsible for the goeds and chattels of its passengers, but an Iodianapolis court has just de- cided In the case of the robbery of a passenger that it is responsible, This virtoally places the sleeping oar com- panles in the same pesition as hotel keepers, who are compelled to provide a place of safe deposit for the money and valuables of thelr guests. —_—— THE railroad commissioners of Iowahave been at last aroused to action concerning the oppression of the farmers by the rallroads whose exorbitant charges for freight transportation are causing such widespread distress, and are moving toward an investigation of the abuse. However deesrous the lowa commis- sioners may be to correct abuses, all their efforts in that direction will amount to nothing, they have no power to enforce their recommendations, They may lnvestigate uatil doomsday, and the only result will be the collection of facts and figures, and their jurlsdiction ends there. The only remedy for exlsting railway evils 1s legisiative regulation, and the people of the weatern states will especially demand of their legislatures mmediate remedial measures. EDUCATING THE INDIANS, The government is doing a good work in sffording a certain number of the In. dians an opportunity to obtain an edu- oation In schools specially designed for them. These schools have, to & certain extent, proved very successful, and dem- orstrated the fact that the Indian is not only an Intelligent being but that he is very quick to learn, The oldest school of this kind, we believe, is that at Car. lisle, Penneylvania. There are several others that have been established for sev- eral years, and within the last year or two several new schools have been started, among the num- ber belpg that at Gemoa, Nebraska. “ | So far the majority of these schools have been located at great dlstances trom the Indlan reservations, but it is now pro- posed to improve upon the old plan by establishing schools among the Indians or In their immediate neighborhood. This is not to be done at present by the gov- ernment, but by the American Mission. ary Association. It will Jbegin with an industrial school near the Sloux reserva- tlon and it is to be located at Pierre Bot- tom, a very favorable spot near Pierre, the present terminus of the Chleago & Northwestern railway, on the Missouri riverin Dakota, Thereisalready a mirsion station there, which has done good work in tralning the Indians In the ways of the white people. The object of the proposed Industrial school is not only to educate the Indian youths mentally, but to train them In the varlous mechanical and | industrial pursuits, so that they can become self-eupporting and independent. Both sexes are to be taught—the girls in the ordinary home industries, and the boya in the pursuits adapted to men, and particularly in agri- culture and stock-raising. This philan- throple work is in the hands of Rev. T. L. Riggs, son of the veteran misslonary, and he is now engaged in raising the necessary funds for the enterprise, to erect the necessary bulldings and de- fray other expenses in connection with such an institution. That the Indians appreciate the efforts that are being made to educate them is shown by the large number of their chil- dren which they gladly send to the gov- ernment achools. Not only do they send their children, but quite a large number of the adults below the age of forty take advantage of the educational opportuni- ties thus oftered them. But whether ed- ugation alone will solve the Indian prob- lem remains to be seen. The Indlans cannot all be educated at these govern- ment schools, and It seems to us that the government would act wisely in estab- lishing some general common school sys- tem among the Indiuns upon their re- servations. OI course there are schools at nearly every agency, but the accom- modations are altogether too limited. The trouble now is that the Indian who returns to his tribe an educated and en- lightened person feels himself somewhat at & loss how to apply or use the knowl- edge that he has acquired, as the great majority of his people still remain in an uncivilized condition. It strikes us, that in addition to being gtven the opportu- nity of an education, the Tndians should be made full citizens of the United States, that their lands should be allotted In severalty, and thab thoy should be as- sisted in every possible way to become agriculturiste, stock-ralsers, mechanics, and even politicians, Make them inde- pendendent, self-supporting people, and they will make peaceable, industrious and intelligent citizens, That is the true solution of the Indian problem, and it can be accomplished wish the same amount of money that is ex- pended upon them under the present systemm of keeping them herded on the reservations, They are now, as a rule, only encouraged to remain idle and shifcless, and they will continue to do so as long as the govern- ment feeds and clothes them, and keepa an army of agents and contractors to thrive off the ‘‘pickings and stealings.” Although the house committes has de cided to report adversely the joint reso- lution providing for Inidan sitizenship, we believe that that privilege, will event- ually and at no distant day e confenred upon them, but it will no$ be done un. til it can be bestowed in coanectlon with a plan to allot Indian lands in severalty and otherwise provide for their imstruc tion and maintenance uatil they become self-supporting. Then, and =mot till then, shall we solve the Tndian problem. I strikes us that the controversy that has arisen over the chief reliz of the lost cause is simply much ado about nothing. Nobody now cares anything about the lotters written by Jeff. Davis during the war of the rebellion, and It makes no dif- ference what he intended to do in cer- tain emergencies, but his warm friend and admirer Dr. Miller cannot resist the temptation to defend the old reprobate whom he calls a brave azd pure man, and *‘the fallen chief of & great cause.” The question of color is bound te fre- quently haunt the halls of congress, es- pecially as long as the democrats are in power. During the consideration of the Reagan Interstate commerce bill, O'Hara, the colored congressman from North Car- olina, succeeded in having adopted an amendment to the effect that no discrim- ination should be exercised by any rail- road ageinst any passenger on account of color, The next day a substitute amend- ment was offered by Congressman Orisp that the railroads shall have the right to provide separate accommoda- tions for passengers as they may deem best for their public comfort and safety. Oongressman Breckinridge offered an smendment to Crisp's smendment pro- viding for the ‘‘assortment’ of passen- gers from a standpoint of public con- venlence and eafety, Orisp's amend. ment, thus tinkersd by Breckinridge, was adopted. This will give tho rail roads the right to “‘sort”’ their passengers a8 they may seo fit, and It s safo to say that the southern railroad companies will continue to run thelr *‘colored” cars and sort the blacks from the whites. In other words diecrimination will be per- mitted under the name of ‘‘assortment,"” and under the plea that it is done for the public comfort and satety. Tur Sage of Grammercy has been ro- invigorated sufliciently by the recent democratic breeze to send out word from Cipher Alley that he proposes to haye a word or two to say in the formation of Grover OCleveland’s cabinet as well as to have a hand in the general distribation of the lesser prizee. In other words, Samuel J, Tilden proposes to see that somoe of his friends of 1876 are properly provided for, and it is Intimated that Mr. Cleveland intends to humor the old man. This is very comforting to Dr. Jeorge L. Miller, who, In an sartivle on “The Herald and its Influence,” vefers to Tilden as ‘‘the illustrious stateaman and leader of New York, whose mantle is now worn with his approval by Grover Cleveland.” The insinuation is that the the democracy has a double-header for president. Mr. €leveland, who ls ea- dowad with great physical power, is to act as the flgure-head, while Uncle Sam, who is a physical wreck, is to supply tho brain work, This Is a very happy com- bination. Tue IHerald opposes any movement to compel the Union Pacific to pay its debts at maturity, as this would force the road foto bankruptey, which would be ‘‘an in- jaetice to the widows and orphans who have inveated their little all in thet great property.” The Herald in roferring to the orphans means the sons of Mr. Ames, who are milllonaires, and the term “widows” probably includes such poor porsons as the Widow Butler. Axoxa the various delicacles we have oleomargine, butterine, lardine, and a dozen other such compounds, and now comes lagerine. This article is manufact- ured prinoipelly from hops by the brewers of Iowa, who call it a patent medicine. In Nebraska, however,it is known sa lager beer. It tastes just the same,na matter what you call it. ‘Wall Street Must Divide, Chicago Teibune. ‘Wall street owns and manages the highways of the west. It is one of the anomalies of our rapid and intricate civilization that 10,000,000 of western.people should be cat off from the world by fences.and toll-gates in the | possession- of a few cliques of almost | alien finanolal adwventurers, but that is the position of the farmers of the Missis- sippi valley to-day. One of the results of the sadden and wholesale way the wilderness has been turned into a garden has been thav while the inhabitants were breaking the ground and tillingit the entrepreneurs ot Wull street were taking possession of the gates and the ways in and out and enabling themselves to say as they donow: Ry us toll at our terms or keep ppurselves at home and let your sorn and’ wheat and oats rot in the ground. Our railroads are-managed forthe most part by men selectad:by Wall street, who operate the road with. both eyes on the flactuarlons of Wall street instead of on the welfare of the 'ms, and whose aim is to wring out of the passers-by at their toll-gate the tribate which shall clothe their masters 1n Fifth avenue in purple and finelinen. In theirhands the rall- roads ave not a pact of the country sym- pathetie to the. influences which deter- mine the genera’mverage of prices, and rising or falling in prosperity with all other institutions, Theyarea seperate, independent, ard supprior interest. Like thelordly lane-owners 0 Great Britain and Imland, they,must have tl}elt rent. whether the earth has pyoduced 1t or not. The misforturss-of the peasantry are nothing to them. Whatever else goes down, dividends shall not decline, Everything in the west Is declining in price except rrilroad yates, but these in the view of Wall strees are a sacred and prior lien. Rvery quarter of a.cent decline in the price of wheat meanc.a loss in the market 'able value of the wheat crop of the country of 1,000,080, and within a few.} days the money valune of the wheat crop decreased vali on to $20,000,000.
