The heart of the great Sioux resorve lies immediatoly be- yond the line and extends from the Missonri river to a point | within thirty miles of the Wyoming boundary.

Nearly every ac) of available government land is in th hands of settlers, In his speech in the senate in f ze the infantr; the service, Senator Manderson referred in the following language to the relation of the great Sioux reserve to northwest- ern Nebrask Upon the northern boundary of the fair state that [ have the honor in part to repre- sent upon this floor are nearly 25,00 of the savage Sioux nation, the stalwart and sinewy braves, armed to a man with the deadly Win- chester. Within a short time I visited them at a few places on the 34,000 square miles d coted to their abuse rather than use, T re- d to see some evidences of advancing ation, and have hope for their future; l!l|| as I heard them, in the council room by day and in the wild dance at night, recount- ing their deeds of war, boast of the murd ous part taken atgthe Custer and other massa- cres, saw the envious admiration gleaming from the faces of the listening young bucks, and the evidences of jealousy and desire for leadership on the part of contending chiefs, I feared for the safety of the white men and women who are so rapidly building charm- ing villages and making thrifty farm-homes throughout all that wonderfully beautiful new west. Iam notone of those who feel hatred for the Indian. With the vast major- ity of my fellow citizens of Nebraska I would accord to him more than Lis rights; would protect him from all evils, including himself as the greatest of all; would educate, civilize, Christianize him mto capable citizenship; but it will take years, If not generations, to change the Indian nature, and while it exists these periodical outbreaks, with their atten- dant ind ble horror of homes desolated, children captured and brained, men tortured and killed, and mothers and wives worse than murdered, will occur. It is the clear duty of the government to meet them by reaching the highest point of efliciency for the small army that must stand between the {rontier citizen and the disaster to be, feared above all others, This is the argument which the settlers of Nebraska are urging for increased military protection on that frontier. That the Sioux are quiet to-day isno promise for the future. A change in agents, a deerease in the reservation limits, any onc of a hundred trifling ex- cuses, would be a suflicient spark to start the flame of outbreak.

A question which was early raised in the state of Kansas during the agitation which resulted in prohibition, and which s also been forcibly put in Towa since the passage of the prohibition law that of the liability of the state for damages done to brewers and distillers by the enforced closing of their manufactur- ing establishments under the law. It claimed that whatever right the state might have to prohibit the sale of beer and liquors, it had no nght or power to destroy the plant of manufacturers without compensation for the damages incurred. This question has finally been put to the test of the courts in Kansas where John Wolruft, a Lawrence brewer, brought sult in the United States court to remove an injunction agmnst tho run- ning of his establishment. The opinion rendered by Judge Brewer last Thursday is in brief as follows: “The facts upon which the foundation ques- tion in this case iests are few and shuple. Between 1870 and 1874 the detendant con- structed a brewery in Lawrence, Kan. The building, machinery and fixtures were de- signed and adapted for the making of beer and nothing else, for which purpose they are worth $50,000; for any other purpose not more than $5,000. At the time of the crection of the building and up to 1830 the making of beer was as legal and as free from tax, H- cense or other restrictions as the milling of flour in that year. A constitutional amend- ment was adopted prohibiting the manu- facture of beer exeept for medical, seientific and mechanieal purposes. In 1581 and 1885 Jaws were enacted to earry this prohibition into effect. Under these laws a permit was ntlal for the manufacture for the ac- The per- mit was refused and an injunction issued resiramning defendant absolutely from the wifaetire of beer. Thus the defendant is prolivited from using his property for the parposes of which it is alone useful and val- “fu view of what has hitherto fallen from my pen in other cases it may be tnnecossary to add anything furth Yet to guard against any possible misappreliensions, as well as to indicate that my views,as expressed upon other questions, have not changed, let me say that I do not in the least question the power of the state to absolutely prohibit the | manufacture of beer, or doubt that such pro- hitation is potential as against any one pro- posing in the future to engage in siel manu- facture, Auny one thus engaging does so at his own peril, and cannot invoke the protec- tion of the fourteenth amenduent or dewand the consideration and judgument of fed- eral courts, Allthat I hold is that property within the meaning of that amendi cludes both the title and right 1o us | when the right to use in a given way is vesied in a citizen it cannot be taken from him for | the public good without compensation, Be yona any doubt the state can prokibit the de- fendant from continuing his business of | brewing, but befose it can do so 1€ wuust pay | the value of the propeity destroyed.” and im | to | 'Lhia is & highly interosting | porfant docision, It wiirms 994,000, 420,000, rendered useless. It goes further and demarnids such payment before the consti- tutional prohibition can become effective. Under Judge Brewer's ruling every brewery and distillery in Kansas can at | once begin operations unmoiested, unless the case is appealed to the supreme court. The decision will be of great in- terest to the people of Towa, where the same conditions exist. It is probable that an appeal will be taken, but if the opinion of Judge Brewer is sustained in Washington, several of our states which ve gone into the prohibition move ment blindfold will find that it is, to say the least, an expensive experiment. —_—— atism, It 1s not surprising that Senator V Wyck'sbill to prevent the demonetiza tion of the silver dollar, by forbidding contracts providing that payment on notes, &c., shall be made in gold, has caused a howl of indignaticn from the organs of the eapitalists throughout the country. The measure is denounced as useless, ns dangerous, and as unconstitu- tional. The wide attention which it has attracted shows that it is uscless, chiefly the gold Dbugs, dangerous to the schemes of the men who are working for a demonctization of the silver dollarand | unconstitutional, only in the cyes of capitalists, who hope to make usurious contracts, whose validity would be im- paired by the operation of the measure, Senator Van Wyek's bill prohibits the making of contracts whose performance would require paymentin gold coin alone to the exclusion of silver. It makes such contracts entered into after the passage of the law, null and void, It doesnotim- pair the validity of any contract already entered into but declares the tutare mak- ing of such contracts illegal because the certain result of their performance will be to dishonor the silver dollar, decrease its relative value, and hastenthe day of a single standard. For months past heavy capitalists east have been entering into such engagements. Thousands of leases of property in New York city have been made with o clause providing for the pay- ment of rent “ingold coin.” The records of the courts show large quantities of mortgages recorded with similar clauses inserted in the notes. No one can deny the tendency of such contracts is to st a cloud upon our silver curren- cy which by law is as much the standard of value as gold coin. Every exclusion of silver from the channels of trademakes it more difficult for the government to maintain ative value asa circulating medium, The objeetion that Senator Van W, bill is “fiatism” is ridiculous. The silver dollar to-day circulates side by side with the gold dollar. So far the concerted attempts of largo capitalists and of the Wall street clique to demonetize the metal haye failed. In the tace of demon- ctization by England and Germany the United States is sustaining a bi-metallic currency without injury to its busin interests and to the gen- eral satisfaction of its citizenship. The value of the silver dollar as a coin is equal to that of the gold dollar. Secnator Van Wyck’s bill so far from being in the interests of ‘‘fiatism” so ealled is directly opposed to an irredeemable currency of inferior value. 1ts aim is to maintain the value, intrinsic and relative, of the metal dollar by preventing the operation of schemes for depreciating its usefulness as n medium of exchange. It is a meas- ure for the maintenance of bi-metalism, not for the destruction of a staple coin age. It neitherinflates nor decreases the volumee of the currency, makes no dan- gerous innovation in financiering and changes none of the existing conditions. It does not impair the obligation of con- tracts but prohibits the making of con- tracts which congress declares shall be illegal because opposed to the public in- Senator Van Wyck's measure is a proper and a practical one. It is proper because it is aimed at an actual evil and one which if permitted to continue will materially hasten demonctization by widening the gap between the two metals. [t is practical because if earried into effect it will prevent the concerted attempt which is being made n the east to dishonorsilver as o circulating medi- um and to increase the value of the gold dollar for the benefit of the creditor class. THE present year promises to be one of more than nsual prosperity in Nebraska. The tide of immigration which during the past twelve months has been diverted from Dakota, Kansas and the southwest mto our state shows no evidence of abatement. With the opening of spring the inrush of new settlers to our rapidly extending frontier will once more begin. New railroads and extension of railronds already in operation will open up large tracts of lands now unoccupied. The impending repeal of the pre-emption law which last year attracted thousands o farmers to the government lands in the state, will again greatly stimulate settle- ment. All the causes which have com- bined to double the population of Nebraska within five years will still be in operation. The heavy railrond construetion will put in circulation large amounts of money to be exvended in grading, ironing and sup- plies. Omaha has always shared in the prosperity of the state, and there is no reason to doubt that the present year will be an exception to the usual rule.
