THE INDIAN QUESTION. Hamlin Garland, Indian author- topics, has created a sensation in "We say to the Indian: 'Be like us or we will kill you.' For my part I do not want to live in a world where the people all drink ice cream soda and wear the same kind of clothes." made a rash bid for fameet audi ,1 v/r the Coroett-McCoy tight at Mad- ity and prolific writer on western cure for his empire an exit into ice free waters as Jefferson, Madison or Monroe had to force their Way through Chicago by his defens e, in a lec-j the French and Spanish barriers that ture, of the Indian and is ways. Mr. Garland said white men do not now understand and never had understood the Indian and he shocked his audience by de claring that Anglo-Saxon civil ization was not the only civiliz ation,arid that Christianity as not the bnly religion. Continuing he said: "The history of the 'civilizing march' of the white man from the Atlantic to the Pacific has never been written from the red man's point of view. When it is written, most of the 'mas sacres' will appear as fair, pitched battles, and the 'out rages' will be found never to have happened at all. Reports of nine-tenths of all the Indian outrages in the southwest were absolutely without foundation. What Mr. Garland says of the. "civilizing march" is true enoug h, for has not the vhite man been many times injust in his con demnation of Indian tactics in their wars of defense against the en roachrnent of the whites? If the white men won a battle, no matter under what conditions, it was called a victory, but if the Indians were victors and many were killed it was invariably put down as a massacre. Take the Custer "massacre" for example. A massacre is always a stain upon the nation by whom it is practiced, as it cannot be affected without a violent breach of confidence, and a direct act of treachery. How, then, an the Indians be said the have mas sacred Custer and his brave fol- lower s? Was there a brea ch of *t]}e promise or an act of treachery BEAR HOLDS MANCHURIA. Russia's Latest Move Settles th Question. St. Petersburg, Aug. 16.In offlr circles here much satisfaction is ex pressed at the separation of Russia fv Eastern domains from the immo^i administrative control of St. Petersburg by the appointment of Vice Admiral Alexieff as viceroy of the Amur district and the Kwang Tung province. The appointment is one I the results of the recent conference i of Russian naval and military anthori i ties at Port Arthur. The change will i facilitate the government's purpose to secure for Russia a permanent outlet in the Gulf of Pechili. No alternation will be made in 'he technical status of Manchuria by the appointment of I a viceroy, but the presence of such an official will be an intimation that Rus sia does not intend to permit the province to pass back into Chinese possession. Russian officials maintsm that the czar has as much right to ''e- once barred America's way to the Gulf of Mexico. MISS JEFFRIES A SLUGGER. Chicago Girl Knocks Out an Offensive Young Man. Boston, Aug. 16.Miss Maud Jeff ries of Chicago yesterday afternoon proved herself a boxer of no mean ability in the public gardens, when she knocked out an offensive young man who attempted to hug her. To an of ficer who came up after the affair was all over Miss Jeffries said that the young fellow had made himself par ticularly offensive tc- herself and two feminine companions as they sat upon one of the benches. When he at tempted to hug her, her ire arose and she delivered a blow on his jaw that knocked him down. Then the three be labored him with their parasols. "As soon as he could regain his feet he fled from the angry damsels, amid the jeers of a crowd that had quickly col lected. Beyond giving her name and place of residence, Miss Jeffries de clined to give any information, saying that the affair had been settled and that she wanted no more notoriety. TURKEY BOWS TO RUSSIA.
