POLITICAL REFLECTIONS, 1% is a bard t2sk for a leading dems- cratle editor to impart consolation to democrats whoara in nomood to be con- soled. It is a hard task to admister soothing balm to sngry oplrits; a hard task to Inculoate viows which he, himself, detents; it |s hard also for democra!s to re. csive the inculeation of such views, with that splrit of christian resignation which should ba the predominaiing charactsrin— tle of the party brought into power under the lead of the saintly Beccher, Mugwump Curtls and traflicking 8t.

FEELINGS OF A WORKING DEMOURAT, One of the most prominent and ener- getlo oves in the state, to whom I read a short editorlal tonching this subject, and asking him how he liked i, eatd, *‘to shoel (uslng the Kivg James version) with such etaff The democratle party went lnto lset yoar's election to over- throw the republican party throughout the country, because we believe it was corrupt, and to put In {ts place throughout the whole country, the democratic party. We did not proposs to boe satisfied with electing Grover Cleve- land, and secarlng changes of afew h: of departments, but we intended changes generally, almost unlversslly. What 1s to be gained by changlng the head of the goverument, if theagenta of the govern- ment are not changed! Are republicans better instramentalities for inangurating and carrylng out democratic policies than domocrate! Cleveland has secured his positlon, and a few chosen ones have se- cared thelrs, and he now turns hls back upon the mass of the party who did the work to elect him., I waat no office, have no favors to ask, but It thls Is the kind of a democratic administration we are to have, then I have done with poli- LAND IN SEVERALTY, The Communinl System Urged as the Only Sucoesstul Oneo for Indians, To the Editor of the Bre, ¢ 1 seo In a recont lssuo of the Bee that your distinguished corre- spondent at Grand Island, the Hon.

Thayer, in refercsing to the Indians and the meana that should be employed to civlliza them, stated that one of the steps for the accomplishment of such purpose would be to glve them thelr lands In tevoralty, With all due respect for tho honorable gentlemsn and his oplnion, I beg leave t o differ from him as to the of such a measure, Some yesrs ago Herbert Spencer upon the eve of his departare from this country after a somewbat extonded tour thereln, etated, In an after dioner speech, at an ontertalnment glven his honor by & num- ber of distinguieshed gentlemen of New York, that while he was profoundly im tices.” Isald, ‘'are there many more domocrats who think and feel as you do ! ‘‘Yes, the greater part of the democratic party of this state feel as I do on thls matter, judging by the expresalons that have come from all with whom I have conversed, and {f Cleveland were to bs voted for to-morrow, nine out of every ten democrats in Nebraska would vote sgalnat him. We feel that we have been fooled, betrayed, aud we propose to ex- press our condemnation of such betrayal Cleveland 1s now pursuing the policy that John Tyler, Miilard Fillmore, and Andrew Johnson, pursued, and he will land just where they landed, without a party, and without a polltical future.” I remarked to him, “You express yourself very decidedly aud freely. What resalt do you antlot- pate in Chlo and New York this fall?” He rep ied, ““I believe the republicans will sweep those atates by anywhere from thirty to fifty thousand majority. Gen- eral spathy will have command of the democracy.” ““What do you think of the appoint- ments thos far made?” “*Ah, there it is again; some of them are good oues, but many of them were not fit to be made. Take thls men, Gardner, just msde surveyor-general; it 1s o1 insuit to the democracy ot No braska to appoint such & man. Ho never has boen a democrat, nothing bnt a political guerilla, true to nobody. 1f euch men are to receive the honors of the democratic administration, thea 1 have done my lost polit'cal work for that it 13 said that ex-Seuator Tipton sutor Van Wyck uro ln pacs re- ible for tho appointment of Gar- dner,” remarked the writer. “Yes, I havo noticed that,” he re- eponded; “but 1 shonld like to know what VanWyck hastodo with appoint- ments under Clevelana! And as for Tipton, what is he but a renegade repub- lican, who turned over to the democracy when he saw he had nothing more to hope for from the republicans; and he has been sppointed to a good paying office, (ceglater of the land office at Blooming- ton) while demo:r.ts who have, duricg their whole lives fought the battles cf the democracy, are utterly fgaored. The piesident has, at times, teemed to take eatisfaction In over-riding the recommen- dations of the leading working demo- crats of a state, district or county, and appointing somebody who had no ground for recognition and who had never been thought of for the position. I frankly confess that, rather than be compelled to witners these things, I prefer to see the republicans in power. What fs the object in changing the head of the gov- erument if we cannot have a change throughout? Dr. Miller may counsel subm'ssion to such wrongs and insults, but I, for one, will not tamely submit. While I am not now ready to have my name published as having glven utterance to theso sentiments, for the time has not yet come to muke the fight openly, the perlod s not far off, when I will, wih thousands upon thousands of other good democrats in this and other states make the fight agsipst a preeident who will fuflict such treatment, and such wrongs, upon the party which elected hiw., “There,” said he, *‘I have exprested my real feelfngs, and it 1s somewbat of a ro- lief o me.” Tho writer thanked him for such a candfd expresslon of his views, and avowed his entire concurrence with them, Toe rentimeuts and feeilngs thus de- clared by this staunch democrat are, in the writer’s judgment,the sentiments and feelings of uine-tenths of the democracy to-dsy, and the futuro will dovelop the fact, " Ho ventures the prediction that the esiimato of the democrat given above will be more thau realized.

Pineapples, i a strict botanical sente, are not fruit, but clueters of leaves which undergo wonderful changes just before ripening The lcaves greatly enlarge, inclosing the central siem, bracts, calyx, corolla and ovary, much llke & common mulberry, though without seeds. Pineapples are of elow growth, but ara quick to ripen.

And we may to- day, with the same proprioty, affiem, as wo think, the superior wisdom of the savago in Tregard to the possesslon and use of land. A few years ago the Hon. Cml Schurz, then sccretary of the inte- rlor, In a report submitted to congress, recommended, as o ealutary measure, that the Indians be granted thelr lande in severalty. He thought such a policy would go far towards solving the prob lems connected with the management gnd clvilization of the Indlan tribes. The loarned and astute Teutonic Amerlean, however, was taken aback somewhat by an open letter addressed to him by Bushy- head, the able and edaocated chief of the Cherokes Indians, In that letter a com. parlson was made between the polley governing the dlspotition and use of land prevailing among the Indian tribes and that In vogne amopg the whitee. He showed, substantial'y, that by the Indian pollcy—tte treatment of their lands as the common property of the tribe—all the Indians had an equal 1i3ht to the nse of the land, and that emong the clvillzed Indlans, who used Jand for every purpoce for which it can be used, there existed a very happy and prosperous condition of soc'ety. Farther, it was suzgested to the etates- man by tho barbarlan that “‘wero the linds of the Indisus granted to them in eeveralty very ehortly their condition would be as deplorable es that of the white people of tho states. Soon the mont shrewd, energetic and capable, to- gether with the grasping, selfish and on ecrupulous Indlans would bave the msjor part of the land while the ordinarlly en- dowed end coneclentlous would have no land, poverty and destitution would ensue, equalor and splendor, penury and weslth, together with all that awful train of evils incident to modern civllizad soct- ety would prevall, and where now in gen- eral comfort and equality there would be found dlscomfort and inequslity.” No apswer to theee points was mads by Mr. Schurz nor have we a'nce heard anything fur her from him reepecting the glving of land In severalty to .he Indians. Again: Senator Ingalls, of Kanasas, has just returned from a visit to the [ndisn verritory. He states that he was greatly and agreeably surprised at what he saw and hesrd In thet country. Mr. Ingalls found a ccmmunity of 7,000 people with all the appliznces and advantsges of cly- ilizatlon, po:sessing farms, stores, manu- focturies, newspapers, churches, schoole, and colleger, and in thort all the con- comitants and accessories of an enlight- cned and refined people. He found In this community not a slngle idle person who was able and willing to work; not a single pauper, and buv one Insane per- ron. What community of ¢qual num- bers, In the states, can make such a sbowing 1 Now, Mr. Ingolls further found that land i3 held in common by the people. KEach famlly or adult person haviog what they can mee. Sach holdings belng sub- ject to suitable rules and regulatione. Senator Ingalls thinks he has dlecov- ered in the policy of these Indian psople s remedy for many of the eoclal and po- litical evils that row ¢filict us, And it would not bo sorprieing in the near futurs to hear of his advocattog princt- ples as radicel ns those eotertained by Henty George, The doctrine of the natarallzstlon of land s galvisg ground in Great Britain, The radical party leaders In England have recently enthu- slsstically celebrated the expiration of term of imprisonment of Michsel Davitt, This is & significant fact as showing the drift of public oplnion there. The time is fa:t approaching, doubtless, when the question of land tenure will become one of pract'cal importance In the Ubited States, The civilized Indlans of the Indian territory oppose the settiing of whites among them mainly through fear of the introdauction of theiz idess concernlng land, und perhaps they act wisely in so dolng. At all events, In the light of the foregoing facts, the suggestion of Mr. Thayer, before Indicated, is nota wise one. A policy respecting land which it is easy toshow results In the enrichment of the few and the lmpoverlehment of the mauy In every countryin which it prevails is certainly not one to be recom- mended to the India or, {ndeed, to any people, savage or clvilized, w.

Uilstory ought to record that fact amongthe marks of a sterling integrity of character that distingulshed them; for to be ecalled a “‘whig” at that time was to be noted as a citizen thet did not hold opinions as the price of oftice, those being for him things unattainable, but as the conclu- siona of an Instracted and honest judg- ment, Honesty, slncerlty, conecientlonsness, {lluminated by a clear parception of the right relation of things, and a personal character that united natural dignity and simplicity ina remarkablo degree were characteristics of Judge Dickey.

The merchant replicd: I attribute the cx- cellent buelness I do every summer to jost two things: First, I advertlee bar- kaing, and keep my store before the piub- lic; eecond, when the public calls, sutisfy it by keeping my advertiseé promises. It cost me §06,000 to learn this lesson, and {t has paid me at least $25,000. Durlrg three successive summers during the hard years that ffollowed 1873, [ ran behind in this storse on an aver- age $2,000 every year. 1 made up my mind that there was buslness to do ond that I would do it, In the miZdle of the worst ana the dullest yerr that we had, when clerks were absent on their vacations and half of the forca In the storn waa idle, [ sterled in and spent $1,200 In advertlsing mideummer bar- gains, remoants, old stock and so on. Within a week my storo was so fall of buslvess that I bad to send for every olerk who was away and add two extra clerks. That year, instead of a loss of $2,000in the summer, I made $2,500 be- sides what I paid for advertising. I have kept it up ever sloce. That was the most expenslve lesson I ever learned, but it was the most Instractive and remunera- tive, If I had to start in bueiness again s poor as when I started, 1 would make rule to epend least one-half of what my rent cost in advertlsing in home papers. I would not wsste it in cheap methods, but would spend it judiciously and in tho best aud high-priced depart- ment and the best and largest papers, POOL PRIVILEGE FOR SALE.
