Chicago, Dec. 1.—This afternoon a
number of dealers in butter had a con
ference with the purpose of protecting
the trade against adulterated butter aud
cheese, which are at present flooding the
country. The recent exposures of the
villainous character of the compounds
which are manufactured and sold as but
ter has greatly damaged the business
and rendered some action necessary.
The only feasible plan suggested was
that dealers in the bogus article be
compelled to label it under its appro
priate name. The last legislature
passed a law requiring this to be done,
but no steps have been taken to enforce
it, and it is practically a dead letter.
Resolutions were adopted requesting
the produce exchange to take action
towards enforcing obedience to the law
and promising lirartv co-operation.
Some $400 was raised on the spot to
further the object of the meeting, and
an active war will be made on the des
picable traffic.

INDIAN MANAGEMENT.
Tlio Iikan uf llio He«r«tury or the Interior
on the Subject.
The following is from the annual re
port of Secretary Schurz:
During the present administration the
agricultural labor of the Indians has
been more than doubled in quality and
value. Figures show that the civilized
and uncivilized together cultivated this
year 482,738 acres of land, or about one
and three-quartars acres of land to each
man, woman and child, upon an estimate
that the total population is 25,000.
Secretary Schurz express the firm be
lief that the agricultural industry of the
Indians would be greatly stimulated if
assurances were given them that they
will be secure in the possession of their
lands.
The secretary, in a subsequent part of
the report calls especial attention to the
bill already submitted by lum to congress
which provides for the division of larm
tracts among the Indians in severalty on
their respective reservations, the issu
ance of patents to them individually,
and their investment with lee simple
titles to their farms, and hopes it will re
ceive the early consideration of congress.
The secretary continues:
I desire also to call attention once more
to the bill repeatedly introduced into
congress extending over Indian reserva
tions the jurisdiction of the courts of the
stales an.l territories in which reserva
tions are located, giving the Indians
standing in such courts and securing to
them the full benefit of the laws. I ven
ture to express the hope that congress
may not adjourn again without having
taken acton upon these important meas
ures, so essential to the progress and se
curity of our Indian wards.
Continuing his account of the civiliz
ing agencies employed under the present
administration, the secretary says:
Last year's experiment of employing
Indians as freiguters with their own
horses has proved to be one ol the most
benilieeut innovations ever made in In
dian management. Nearly two hundred
freight wagons have been in use by the
Indians this year, with the result of sav
ing considerable money to the govern
ment compared with ninouuts iornieiiy
paid for the same transportation oi sup
pjies, etc., to tne ugenuies, beanies lur
nishing a civilizing aud welcome em
ployment to a large number ol otherwise
restless Indians.
The number of Indian youth learning
trades in workshops at the agencies lias
iucaeased from 185 last autum to 358 this
year. The policy of employing Indians
as workmen, and even as foremen and
mechanics at the agencies, has been con
tinued and extenas with great sno-ess.
Brick making has been iegun aud houses
lor the Indians are now almost- exclu
sively built by the Indians themselves.
The aptitude shown by the Indians tor
mechanical work has in many cases been
surprising and is considered deserving ot
every possible encouragement.
The expressions of anxious desire on
the part of Indians belonging to the
so-called wild tribes to have their chil
dren instructed in the ways of civilized
life have, it is stated, grown so numer
ous and urgent that the inadequacy of
the means at the disposal of the depart
ment for this purposa lias become par
ticularly painful. The desire and pur
pose of the department is to largely
increase the present small number of
industrial boarding schools for the
Indian youth, as day schools at the
agencies do not withdraw the pupils
from the influence of home surroundings
sufficiently to facilitate the change in
their habits of daily life.
The report next mentions as another
important civilizing agency, largely in
troduced under the present administra
tion, the organization of a police iorce,
consisting of Indians, which has been
out in operation at forty agencies. The
orce now consists of 162 officers and 053
privates. Its benefits, both as a means
of maintaining good order and as a
moral influence upon the ludian tribes
among whom it has been established are
set forth as worthy of special notice.
The secretary remarks that experience
has strengthened his conviction which,
as this is his last report, ho now feels at
greater liberty to express, that the man
agemdnt of Indian affairs should contin
ue to be epti usted to the civil and not to
the military branch of the public ser
vice. His argument on this topic has
been fully foreshadowed in his former
annual leports.
He again quotes with emphasis, in con
clusion, the report of the peace commis
sion of 1878, signed by Gens. Sherman,
Ilarvcy, Terry and Auger, in which those
distinguished' officers of the army said,
among things of the same uurpoit: If
we intend to have war witli them, the
Indians of the United States, the Indian
bureau should go to the secretany of war.
If we intend to have peace, it should be
in the ciyil department.
The secretary does not make a recom
mendation of importance in regard to
land grants to railroads, but recapitulates
their last annual report, aud states as the
result of the investigation made by the
government that their property is found
to be iu good condition, the earnings
largely increased, aud although the rates
of both freight and passengers have been
reduced, it is believed there will be, with
the tilling up of the country west of the
Missouri, remunerative business enough
for each one of them.
