A BOA11D OF INDIAN INSPECTORS.
The bill recently Introduced in the Senate by
Mr. Wilson "to promote the civilization of
Indians, and to prepare them for the rights
and duties of citizenship," is apparently de
signed to systematize the work which the
President entrusted, some months ago, to a
commission composed of gentlemen of the
highest standing. The efficiency of their
labors was much weakened by the confliot of
Authority arising from diverse laws and the
want of a clear understanding in regard to
the extent of their powers. The new bill, if
passed, will obviate, to a groat extent, these
difficulties. It will entrust to the proposed
board (of which the Secretary of the Interior
and the Commissioner of Indian Affairs, for
the time being, are members) the supervision
of all expenditures for the benefit of "Indians
in amity with the United States,"
and with the general management of
the friendly tribes, while the hostile Indians
will be left to the control of the War Depart
ment. The experience of the country has
demonstrated that the first essential step in
civilizing the Indian is a thorough flogging.
Nearly every formidable tribe has in turn un
dergone this process, and there can be no en
during peace on the frontiers until those tribes
whioh are still vaiu and foolish enough to
imagine that they can defy the Government
and massacre white men with impunity are
overwhelmingly defeated and humbled by
American soldiers. The great defect in our
eyatem arises from the inadequacy of the
means hitherto provided for the management
of the Indians after they have been com
pelled to sue for peace. The praotioal
working of the machinery of the Indian
Bureau has been to the last degree disgraceful
and dofioient. An expenditure of millions of
dollars per annum has been so badly mis
managed that it has done, on the whole, in
finitely more harm than good. It has tended
rather to foment new wars than to maintain
peace. It has done more 'to brutalize the
Indian than to elevate him. It has served to
enrich a horde of white rascals, from the heads
of bureaus and pretentious superintendents
down to cheating agents, while it has con
taminated the Indian with all the curses, and
endowed him with none of the blessings, of
civilization. White tax-payers and the nomi
nal red recipients of the liberal appropria
tions which are continually made by Congress
have been alike victimized, without any sub
stantial and permanent good being accom
plished, or any other positive result being
clearly perceptible than the perpetual reitera
tion of the old story that Indian agents,
superintendents, and contractors amass
wealth, while the Indians under their ohargo
grow poor, and in some cases literally starve
to death.
If this system oannet be improved it had
better be abolished in toto. It would be quite
as honest and creditable for the nation to ab
rogate all the old treaties by a sweeping law,
as to continue to permit swindling agents to
rob the Indians of the benefits we have only
pretended to confer. The new bill, however,
embodies -a reform whioh may do much
eood. and can in no event make
bad worse. It will prove a diffioalt task,
under the most favorable ciroumstances, "to
civilize, Christianize, and mtke productive
citizens of the Indians." The experiment
has been tried over and over again on Ameri
can soil. The labors of the Moravians, the
Jesuits, the Quakers, and other sects have
not unfrequently been attended with partial
success, but they have rarely been able to
fender any considerable body of Indians proof
against the contaminating vices of civiliza
tion. Judicious labors oonduoted among
tribes which saw no white men save the few
who exercised a positively good influence
have nearly always proved fruitful, but such
isolation has been, as a rule, a prime
requisite of success, and it is ex
tremely difficult to guard the friendly
tribes from contaminating associations. In
a few instances even this difficulty has been
partially overcome, however, and it may still
be possible, by a vigorous and combined
effort of the Government and the religious
bodies of the country, to save and elevate a
considerable proportion of the aborigines.
If Senator Wilson's bill becomes a law, this
question will probably be thoroughly tested.
The nation has demonstrated its ability to
safely incorporate in ene body politio not
only all the diverse races of Europe but the
sable African, and it is opening up a plaoe for
John Chinaman. So let ns not settle down
into the conviction that extermination affords
the only permanent solution of the Indian
problem until the new Board of Inspection
has bad a fair chance to try its hand at civi
lizing the natives.
t " PUBLIC EXECUTIONS. '
Is spite of the law providing that criminals
sentenced to death shall be privately executed,
means were devised at Huntingdon on Wed
nesday last to enable thousands of persona to
witness the execution of Bohner and Boden
berg. Thronging crowds are as eager now as
in the days of our ancestors to witness "a
hanging match;" and while the injunctions of
the law are fulfilled with the utmost fidelity
in Philadelphia and a few of the more popu
lous interior counties of the State, they are
practically a dead letter in many localities.
When other devices fail, deputy sheriffs
by the hundred are' sworn lnf
laid the spirit of the existing
staluto is filiMTKifully disregarded. This evil,
coupled with the analogous one of imperfect
arrangements made by bungling sheriffs,
clearly indicates the necessity of now legwla
tion on the subjeot. In Franoe, we believe,
ono man superintends all the executions in
every pBit of, the empire, and if we must
continue to hang mon, there can be but little
doubt that this nnploasant duty would be
more skilfully and humanely performed if it
was entrusted to an offloial who was fully im
pressed with the necessity of a striot com
plianoe with the law requiring privaoy, and
at the same time competent to avoid the
painful scenes of legal butohery whioh are
from time to time reported in this and other
States.
OUR CENTENNIAL ANNIVERSARY.
1m the National House of Representatives
yesterday, lion. D. J. MorreU, of Pennsyl
vania, Introduced a bill to provide for the
proper celebration of the centennial annu
versary of the signing of the Declaration of
Independence, to take place at Philadelphia
in the year 1876. The bill, whioh was re
ferred to the Committee on Manufactures, is
an excellent preliminary step in the direction
of a definite arrangement for the grand
national event, and it ought to receive the
candid consideration of Congress. It pro
vides for the creation of a commission, to
censist of not more than three delegates from
eaoh State, whose duty it shall be to prepare
a plan for holding a great international exhi
bition, after conference with the authorities of
the city of Philadelphia, and to select a suitable
site for the erection of the necessary build
ings within the corporate limits of the said
city. The commissioners are to be appointed
within one year after the passage of the aot,
by the President of the United States, by
and with the advioe and consent of the
Senate, and in addition to these, throe alter
nate commissioners for eaoh State are to be
appointed, who shall assume the plaoe and
perform the duties of the original commis
sioners when they shall be unable from any
cause to attend the meetings of the commis
sion. The commission is to report to Con
gress at its next session a complete plan for
the reception and classification of articles in
tended for exhibition; a suitable date for
opening and for closing; a sohedule
of appropriate ceremonies for open
ing or dedicating the exhibition; a
plan or plans for proper build
ings; a plan for conducting the finances and
guaranteeing the expenses that may be in
curred; the requisite custom house regula
tions fer the introduction into this country
of articles from foreign countries intondod
for exhibition, and all other neoeasary dotails.
The commissioners are not to receive any com
pensation, and their travelling expenses aro
not to exceed the mileage of members of Con
gress, and the commission is not authorized
to incur any expense, except for a competent
clerk, unless authorized according to law.
Whenever the President of the United
States shall be informed by the Governor of
the State of Pennsylvania that provision has
been made for the exclusive oontrol by the
United States of the proposed exhibition, the
President is to make, by the Department of
State, a proclamation of the same, setting
forth the year in whioh the exhibition will
take place, and the city in which it is to be
held, and he is to communicate to the diplo
matio representatives of all nations copies of
the same for publication in their respective
countries.
Independently of every other considera
tion, there is an historical propriety in cele
brating the centennial anniversary of the
signing of the Declaration of Independence
in Philadelphia that cannot be disputed, but
in addition to this there is no other city on
the continent that presents so many advan
tages for the proper holding of a groat in
ternational exhibition. New York some yoars
ago attempted to rival the first great exhibi
tion in London in 1851, and made a dead fail
ure of it, which ought to be sufficient to prevent
Congress from attempting anything of the
kind in that locality again. Here we have
ample space in our Park for all the necessary
buildings, and we have ample accommoda
tions for the comfortable lodging of all the
strangers who may come to rejoice with us in
the celebration of the one-hundredth anniver
sary of our national existence. There are
certainly a sufficient number of disinterested
men in Congress to acknowledge the proper
claims of Philadelphia in this matter, and we
do not doubt that all the essential features of
Mr. Morrell's bill will receive the votes of a
large majority of both houses.
Tnx bill for the payment of the State His
torian and his clerical force for the last year
was passed by the State Senate yesterday,
with an amendment reducing the clork hire
from $5800 to $3200. It would be a matter
of great gratification to us if we could dis
cover what benefits are derived from the
labors of the State Historian by anybody but
himself. If in the matter of clork hire alone
he contrives to run up a bill of $5800, what
must his own expenses be? The faot is that
the State Historianship is a job for the espe
cial purpose of taking as much money as pos
sible out of the State Treasury for the benefit
of certain individuals, and it would not be
continued for a day if the Legislature were
composed of honest men who had the inte
rests of the publio at heart. It is not as
great a swindle, perhaps, as some others per
petrated under legislative auspices, but it is a
swindle of sufficient magnitude to demand
emphatio condemnation.

Central Railroad of Iowa
At 95, Free from Tax.
This rsilroml rnns 'm miles nortu sad simth
through the finest arid most thickly settled portion
of the magnificent State of Iowa, and is the only link
wanting to connect the railway centres at St. Louis
and St. Pan! by an nnbroken line, 147 miles shortc
ut an any existing route, a his road offers many ad
vantages. The building of the railroad north from
St, Paul to Duluth. at the head or Lake Superior,
where five railroads will soon centre llio construc
tion of tho Northern Paclilc Railroad, already bKna
and the rapid development of a new and produc
tive country In Minnesota and the Northwest, mu.it
furnish a largo Southern tranic. As the Upper
Mississippi U frozen over during the winter, and it
navigation Is often uncertain during the summer,
from low water, this road must havoalall times a
largo amount of transportation, ana a monopoly of
the business at some seasons of the year. Its con
nections with other lines interested by mutual own
ership or running arrangements; will give It almost
the entire north and south travel between its termi
nal points and their vicinity.
This road will have a great advantage over any
other Western line in carrying the best quality of
coal from where it is abundnnt in Southern Iowa to
Northern Iowa and Minnesota, where none Is to be
found, and in securing return freights of lumber, for
which the demand is very great.
Forty-slx miles of the line a.e Just completed, ami
eighty-eight miles more are graded. An abundant
supply or iron, ties, and other materials has been
contracted fur. The Company have a large and
dully Increasing surplus of money on hand, and the
stock subscriptions and the sales of the bonds, give
them ample means to push the work forward, so
that, with favorable weather, it is expected that tho
whole line will be completed this season.
SECURITY OF THE INVESTMENT.
fro far as we can learn, every completed railroad
la the Northwest Is not only earning the interest on
its bonds, but a dividend on its stock, and we be
lieve the CENTRAL OF IOWA must occupy aa
equally strong financial position.
The amount of Bonds to be issued is bat 16,M
per mile, or Itss than four millions in all,
Of which over One Million have al
ready been told.
WE BELIEVE TIIERE WILL BS NO MORE PA
VORABLE TIME TO SELL GOVERNMENTS, ANO
BUT REALLY riKST-CLASS RAILROAD BEOW
BIT1ES SUCH AS THESE THAN THE PRE
SENT. Pamphlets, w ith map, may be obtained, and sub
scriptions will be received at the COM PANT'S
OFFICES, No. 82 PINE Street, New York, and by IU
advertised agents.

Agency for the sale of the above First Mortgage
Bonos, and desire to recommend them to our eas
terners AS A THOROUGHLY SAFE AS WBbL AS
PROFITABLE INVESTMENT. We have no hesita
tion In saying that in our opinion the CENTRAL
RAILBOAD OF IOWA will be one of the most Im
portant and valuable roads In the West.
