HOW INDIANS FARE.

DR. PARKHURST WOULD RATHER SE
A MALAY.

 

Hon. '1‘. J. M'crgnn, Pix-Commissioner 0!
Indian Affairs, Tells How Much \Vnrs‘o
Ofi‘the Doctor Woum Be If He Wm: in
Yellow Subject of Spain.

Dr. Parkhurst of New York recent-

ly preached a sermon in which he said: i

“I would rather be a Malay subject
to Spain than be an American Indian
subject to the Indian Bureau. So
long as it is an understdod thing that
office is spoils we may well pray to
be delivered from the responsibility
of governing dependencies.”

Hon. T. J. Morgan wrote the Tribune
in defense of the Government‘s care
of the Indians as follows: ,
By “Malay” I' suppose is meant any
inhabitant of the Philippine Islands;
and I assume that Dr. Pill‘k'h'lll'st
means by his statement to institute a
comparison between Spain’s treatment
of the Philippines and our treatment
of the Indians. I do not raise the
question, Would Dr. Parkhurst rather
be a “Malay” or an “Indian”? as I do
not» suppose that is involved. Let us
glance then for a moment at what
seems to me a fair statement as to the
difir'erence in the Spanish method of
dealing with the Philippines and our

- method of dealing with the Indians.

First—Spain has derived from the
Philippine Islands 3. large revenue by
a. system of taxation which has borne
very heavily upon the inhabitants.
She has sought to force from them the
largest possible amount of money, and
has spent upon them for their own
benefit a mere pittance.

We have never regarded the Indians

as subjects of taxation or sources of ,

revenue. 0n the'other hand, we have
treated them as; wards and have be-

stowed upon them as gratuities large

sums of money. When we have taken
their land it has been by agreement,
and we have paid them for it large
sums of money in the aggregate. A
large part of the present expense of
the Indian Bureau is incurred in the
payment to them of stated annual
sums in fulfilment of treaty stipula-
tions.

Let me give one single illustration:
The Osage Indians, now living in In-
dian Territory, a remnant now of
about fifteen hundred people, hold in
common a large reservation on which
they live, where they have for the
most part comfortable homes, exten-
sive farms, stocked with cattle and
horses and supplied with a fair
amount of agricultural Implements.
From this land alone it would be pos—
sible for them to obtain an abundant
subsistence; with proper industry no
Indian would suffer want. But in ad-
dition to this land-ed estate—in the use
of which they are protected by the
Government —there is to their credit
in the Treasury of the United States

53,000,050, on which the Government.

pays them in cash every three months

the sum of $100,000. Besides this, the ,

Government maintains for them large.
well-equipped boarding schools. A
good many white men have thought
it well to go among these Osagcs.
marry rtheir daughters and identify
themselves with the tribe in order to
share in their wealth. If an instance
similar to this can be pointed out by

Dr. Parkhurst in Spain’s treatment of ‘
the Malays, I should be exceedingly _

interested in reading it.

Second—The five so-callcd civilized:

tribes—Cherokees, Creeks,
Chickasaws and Seminoles—in the In-
dian Territory have for many years
maintained their position as nations,
each tribe having its own autonomy,
Its landed estate, its system of legisla-
tion, administration, courts
schools under the‘protectorate of the
United States. The Government is
seeking through the Dawes Commis-
sion to prevail upon these people to
surrender their autonomy and identify
themselves with the people of the
United States as citizens. I do not
know of any similar instance of «abso-
lute self-government among the Ma-
lays under Spanish protection. If
there is such will Dr. Parkhurst kind-
ly indicate it?

Third—Amy and every Indian has
the privilege of separating from the
tribe, assuming civilized habits, ac-
cepting allotment-s of land and becom-
ing a citizen of the United States, with
the Ifull enjoyment of all ordinary
privileges of citizenship and with
some“ special safeguards and exemp—
tions which his white fellow-citizens
do not enjoy.

Fourth—The United States, through
the Indian Bureau, is maintaining
among the Indians of this country a
:.',2uil~'!.tn of public boarding-schools at
e. com of about $3,000,000 annually, in
' there are now enrolled no less
.the sweaty-four thousand Indian pu-
p ’5 tvho are fed, clothed, instructed
i. 'i- ..ursed when sick at the expense
.;' United Slates. From the best

mat-ion that I havebeen able to
our Spain has adopted no such
.2 of education for the Malays
.ill'i“ her control, and I had supposed
that me outlook for the Indian boy
and girl who can receive free of cost
the advantages ofi’ered in these great
Government schools, where they re-
ceive not only a common English edu-
cation but an industrial training, and
where there is open to them on leav-
ing school the choice of occupation
and of residence anywhere in the
United States, was possibly superior
to that of the Malay under Spanish
rule. Will Dr. I’arkhurst kindly cor—
rect me if I am mistaken?

Fifth—4t is commonly understood,
and I had supposed it was correct,
that the inhabitants of the Philippine
islands have been plundered and op-
pressed by the so-called religious or-
ders to a very extreme degree. and
that there Is practically no such thing

li'ans any form]. of religion, but gives
:hem the utmost freedom of action in
:eligious matters. and offers every fa-
cility to any and all religious denom~
Enations for the prosecution among
them of missionary work.

For these and for other reasons
which I might mention I confess that
for myself 'I should rather be. .an In-
iian under the Indian Bureau than a
' \Ialay subject to Spain. '

 

THE SOUTH’S COTTON PROBLEM.

; Ah’ew I‘hcory to Account for the Falling
Price and Increasing Acreage.

Along with the question of the iden-
tity of the man who assaulted Will-
iam Patterson, with the controversy
over the relative merits of city and
:ountry life and the discussion wheth-
n- married men live on the average
:on-ger than single men or only imagine
that it is longer, is another familiar
subject of dispute not yet settled—why
the cotton acreage of the South keeps
constantly increasing and why the
agriculturists of that region do not
vary their products. The cotton acre-
: age in the South has steadily been in-
creasing for a good many years; the
selling value of cotton has been stead-
lly going down. As the acreage has
been enlarged the selling price of col-
:ton has decreased, with the result
that though the gross value of the
American cotton crop does nob vary
radically from year to year, the ratio
of the expenses involved in its pro-
duction, the cost of labor, machinery.
[and and interest, is steadily on the in—
crease. Now there comes forward a
man with a new theory to exp-lain
the matter. He hails from the heart
of the cotton district of Georgia, the
chief cotton-producing State till Texas
‘bore away the palm of eminence. His
theory is that the reason why the
price of cotton is going down and the
cotton acreage is increasing is that
each year that a larger number of

 

 

white men are engaged as principals
in cotton culture. He avers that in
all the southern states negroes are buy-
lng farm lands and they are producing
cotton at a cost below that at which
ithe white man can produce it. Their
[rapid strides forward in cotton cul-
lture have done more than anything
’else to double the cotton output and
. reduce the price in the last few years.
They have driven the price down. '
I Under the direction of the Depart-
ment of Agriculture there were made
last year some inquiries into the die
tary of colored inhabitants of the cot-
ton belt. The investigation was con-
ducted in cooperation with the Agriu
cultural College of Alabama.
shown by them that the average
daily diet of a negro laborer in the
cotton fields amounted to three-quan
ters of a pound of bacon, less than
half a pound of flour, half a pound of
molasses, and one pound of cornmeal
and that as a result of their modes of
sustenance and their ways of life. the
labor of colored men in the cotton
belt was of such small material value
as seriously to emba-rass and threaten
the work of the white farmers—when-
ever lIhe colored men have control of
the land. The matter was «brought up
for discussion at a recent convention
at Macon. Ga" and considerable sup
port was given to this view of the
case.

FOR VISITORS IN MEXICO.

A Few Points Worthy of Note to the:

Traveler.

Don’t attend bullfights on Sunday
and the; find fault with the morals
of the native populace.

Don’t buy a rubber plantation of a
man on the street. He also has gold
bricks that come cheaper. '

Don’t sit in Mexican draughts.
Don’t cash American drafts. Both
are dangerous south of the Rio
Grande. '

Don’t expect your meals to be put
on the table all at once or twice or
three times. Each thing you order
will be served as a Separate course.

Don’t forget to shake hands with
your Mexican friend, both at meeting
and parting, no matter how often you
meet or how brief the interview may
be.

Don’t try to convince the Mexicans
that they don’t know how to make

coflfee. They have been burning it_

for several centuries. and the present
generation prefers it black. ‘

Don’t think the newsboys‘ are crazy .

when they offer you “to-morrow

-Inorning’s paper” at 4 o’clock in the

afternoon; It isn’t their fault. The
afternoon papers are dated a day
ahead.

Don’t try to convince an Indian
street pedler that if a dozen bananas
sell for 12 cents, two dozen ought to
amount to 24 cents. You can’t do it.
He knows that one real is 12 ‘cents,
but two reals are 25 cents, and eight
make a dollar.

Don’t expect an appointment to be
kept on the minute or the hour. Ii
your Mexican friend should rush past
half a dozen friends on the street
without stopping to Shake hands and
pass the compliments of the day, they
would think he had lost his mind and
his manners; so you must wait.—Mod-
ern Mexico. ‘

 

“IT WON’T HURT.”

A Vast Difl’erence Mien the Old Doctor
Was at the other End of the Knife.
The old doctor was very irritable if

a patient made an outcry or bother

over the lancing of a felon. “Put your

finger down there,” indicating the
edge of the table, “and keep still!"
he commanded; and truth to tell, pa
tients, as a rule, make little fuss.
Time passed on, and in the muta-
tions of life Dr. S. had a felon on his
left forefinger, and it was a bad one.

He poulticed it and fussed with it

for about a week, and walked the

floor with pain at night. At last it
became unendurable, and he went to

his assistant surgeon and said, ner-

vously:

“I say, doctor, will you take a look
at my finger?”

The assistant surgeon
remarked gravely. “That
have been lanced before.”

“Possibly—but———” said Dr. S.; and
then. with a long breath, “Perhaps
you’d better lance it now.”

“Certainly,” said the assistant sur-
geon. “Put your finger on the table.”

Doctor S. complied, and with a face
as white as paper watched the
knife. “Be gentle,” he cautioned;
“that’s an awful sore finger!”

“It won’t hurt," remarked the as
sistant surgeon, and the sharp sled
descended.

There was a bowl of agony from
Doctor 8., and with his finger in his
other hand he danced about the roont
crying. “Oh! oh! 011!”

“Why.” remarked the assistant sur-
geon, “I have heard you tell patient:
hundreds of times that it didn’t hurt
to lance a felon.”

“No doubt, no doubt you have?
groan-ed Doctor S. “But that depends
on which end of the knife a man is

kind before, be filled the palm of his:

hand with it and carelessly smeared
. it over his countenance. There was no
E mirror in his very primitive dressing
! room, andRil-ey was beautifying him-
; self on the other side of the stage.

I The “liquid white” dries out some-
Ewhat like whitewash, and when Nye
'appeared before the audience he was
a sight to behold. His head looked
Ilike a frosted top piece on a wedding
:cake; his face, white as the driven
Esnow, was expressionless and blank.
'The audience shrieke'd, and when he
i came all from his first selection..they
' demanded his reappearance. He
obliged them to hov'vls of laughter;
again he made‘his exit, and again was
redemanded by the uproarious audi-
ence.

Believing he had made 'a hit, he was
. about returning to the stage, when he
sins caught by the arm by Mrs, Nye,
who exclaimed: “William Edgar Nye,
what have. you got on your face?”

I “Nothing but its usual expression,
my dear.”

“Expression—fiddlestlcks! You’re a
fright!” cried his wife, and leading
him to where there was a piece of
broken looking-glass, showed Ihim how
he looked.

I Nye was mortified, and catching
' sight of Riley, just about going on the
stage, he Would have undoubtedly fol-
lowed him on and been revenged, but
for the intervention of Mrs. Nye.

. His head was scraped, combed and
washed, and his next selection was
read without a “hand". from the audi-
ence. Moreover, the story is a fact.
and not a press agent’s concoction.

“Do you call this angel cake, Katie
urine?” -

“Yes; isn’t it good?”

“Of course, dear; but I didn’t know
there were any iron-jawed angels."-‘

CLEAN TOWEL SUPPLY COMPANIES.

lthey Originated in Chicago and Are Now
Located in all Large Cities.

The clean towel supply business,
which originated in Chicago. was in-
It has
thrived here. and there are now
about twenty-five concerns engaa'rd
in the business in this city, with
thousands of customers, whose num-
ber are constantly increasing. There
are a great many towel users who
never dreamed of taking towels from
towel supply concerns when the busi~
ness was first started who now
Wouldn’t think of getting them in any
other way.

Cabinets are supplied with a place
to keep the towels in, and they are
also provided with a comb and brush.
a Whisk broom, a soapdish and soap.
The cabinets are made in a variety
of styles and sizes, each having a
mirror in the front. Either hand or
roller towels are provided, or both.
The minimum supply furnished is
four clean hand towels a week, and
once a week the used towels are
taken up and replaced with clean
ones, the soap renewed if it is out,
and the other articles of the equip-
ment looked after.

Towels are supplied to banks.
stores, offices and pretty much all
sorts of business places, in many of
which a large number are used, the
supply being renewed as often as may
be required. There is one concern
that supplies towels with the custom-
er’s in‘itials on them, using a double
set for each customer and supplying
each with the same towels always.
There are now supplied bootblacking
outfits, with polishing brush, dauber
and blacking, the blacking supply be-
ing constantly renewed, all for so
much a month. The towel supply
business has now spread all over the
countrv and it :is established in all
the large cities—New York Sun.

 

Frederick as a Flutist.

Frederick the Great made generous
presents to all musicians except flute
players. He played the flute remarka-
bly well himself, and his proficiency
sometimes led to acts that caused dis-
appointment to his brother artists. A
famous flutist once visited Potsdam,
and asked permission to play to the
king, hoping that Frederick would
show his appreciation of his skill by
some valuable gift. Frederick received
him graciously and listened attentive-
ly while he played a difficult piece.
“You play very well,” he said, “and I
am very glad to have heard of such
ability. I will give you a proof of my
satisfaction.” So saying he left the
room. The musician waited, guessing
at the probable nature of the “proof."
Presently the king returned with his
own flute and. played the same piece
which had just been executed for him.
Then he bade his visitor “Go-0d day,“
saying: “I have had the pleasure of
hearing you and it was only fair thal
you should hear me.”—Pittsburg Dis-
patch.

 

 

No Blood Relation.

Not long ago some young people out
in the country who were to give a ball
thought they would be badly disap-
pointed becau-se the old man who had
fiddled for all their balls as far back
as they could remember suddenly
lost his wife.

She died the very day the dance was
to come off, and her funeral was to
take place the day after, so, of course.
they gave him up and tried to make
the best of things without him.

Imagine, then, their amazement
when the time for the ball came to
see-him come marching in just as us-
ual, fiddle andall, and take his seat
in the old acoustomed place. They
were delighted, and yet a little shock-
ed, to-o, and one of the young men
went up to ask him the explanation.

“Wall, ye see,” drawlcd the old man.
as he twanged his fiddle into tun-e, “ye
see I didn’t like t’ miss th’ dance, an’
then it ain’t so much, ’cau-se arter all
the ol’ lady warn’t no blood relation.

PLYMOUTH BRETHREN.
Dismissed from Beecher-’5 Church, Mrs.
‘ Tllton Joined this Society.

The strength of that peculiar sect,
the Plymouth Brethren, cannot be
satisfactorily estimated, since it has
no formal organization. It has no
connection with the Plymouth
Church of Brooklyn, N. Y.,'where the
mighty intellect of Beecher swayed
the most enlightened congregation
that ever honored a preacher with
hard listening and high thinking, yet.
by some strange perversity of fate,
it became the harbor of refuge for

‘ the tortured soul of the woman who

wrecked her home, destroy-ed herself
and weakened the influence of the
great Congregationalist.

The Plymouth Brethren are wise in
one way—they have no official minis-
try, recognize no order of ministers,
condemning pulpit calls as the cause
of sectarian divisions. They utterly
reject confirmation. They receive in-
ET’communrion all who confess Christ
and acknowledge the Holy Ghost as
His vicar. They exclude persons
known to have been guilty of gross
sins from participation in the Lord’s
Supper until proof is afforded of re-
pentance. They administer the sacra-
ment to one another at the Sunday
meetings. Among their tenets are
original sin and predestination, and
the baptism of adults without regard
to previous infant baptism. As to
the earthly future—why, every man
Jack of them is a red-hot millennial-
ist. As to that other future in the
Great Beyond, they believe solemnly
in the. efiicacy of Christ’s sacrifice
and the power of His intercession.

The charges against Henry Ward
Beecher ended, as we all remember,

”In the Scotch verdict—“not proven.”

Social ostracism Mrs. Tilton could
survive, but to be banished by her
church, to be sent into spiritual,
pietistic exile, was too much for her
thin, wavering, dependent soul.- Her
hysterical temperament made it pos-
Itively necessary that she should
either die or have the shadow of an
Imaginary substance to cling to. She
learned of the Plymouth Brethren,
she studied their tenets, she inquired
of their quality of Christianity, and
finally after yearsshe went to them
and confessed her sin. Satisfied of
her repentance they took her‘ in, and
she died in April, 1897, a member of
their'order. Some men maintain that
her confession is to be found in Mat-
thew v.. 28, but others are less char-
Waldo—New York Press.

 

POLITICS WORSE THAN WAR.

Why an Old 'Woman “’orrled About One of
the Soldiers.

“A month ago,” remarked the drum-
mer who sells saddlcry and harness
goods. “I was out in that part of West
Virginia where Grover Cleveland and
Joe Miller used to go fishing, and in
the course of a side trip I. was making
in a buckboard, in order to take in
some of my customers along the edge
of civilization, I stopped one day at a
hillside tavern presided over by Aunt
Susan Mullins, who is as wise a phil-
osopher as she is superior in the art
of preparing a fine mountain dinner.
I was talking to Aunt Susan on the
war.

“Were any of your folks at the
front. Aunt Susan?” «I inquired.

“None uv my own kinfolks, but
Sarey Jackson’s boy was, and Sarey
is almost a sister to me.’

“ ‘I supose you were worried a good
deal about him during the fighting be-
fore Santiago, weren’t you? I know
how I felt about a brother I had with
the Rough Riders. It is a terrible
strain on people at home to have to
sit still and wait. every minute ex-
pecting to hear that they are killed, or
badly hurt.

“ ‘Yes.’ she replied, rather hesitat-
ingly; ‘that‘s mighty bad and oncom-
fortable,‘ but ’twan’t that what wor-
ried me so much about Sarey’s boy as
his comin’ home after the war's over.‘

“How do you mean?” I asked, puz-
zled past understanding, for the home
coming seemed to be the most joyous
part of it.
