He that would wear the palm
must bear the dust of the race.
Nature has decreed it. “There
is no excellence without labor,” no
development, moral, intellectual
or physical, without exercise.
Nature has in all the grand economy
of her arrangements made no pro
vision for idlers. She does not
take the student by the hand and
lift hina to eminence and renown.
She does not of grace crown the
merchant with wealth, nor place
the chaplet on the hero’s brow.—
Hercules, when applied to for help
by the wagoner whose wheels had
stuck fast in the mud, withheld the
desired aid until the wagoner had
put his own shoulder to the wheel.
Every man has within himself evi
dence that all his powers, physical
as well as mental, were designed
for active, energetic use. That
«uch was the original design and
not a mere consequence of the trans
gression of Adam —though doubt
less that event imposed additional
labors—is attested by the language
of scripture. “And the Loid God
took the man and put him in the
garden of Eden to dress it and to
keep it.” We look about us and
perceive that the same laws which
made it necessary to restrain the
profusion of Nature in Eden, are
in force to-day. These laws are
fixed and immutable. In garden and
lawn, in field and forest there are
countless illustrations of this
truth. . The gracious showers and
the glad sunshine, that favor the
development of corn and other
food plants, promote also the growth
of grass and weed. If these be
•permitted to take up the elements
'Of food from the soil, our corn
will pale and wilt and die. Moth
er Earth is partial to plants that
spring spontanously from her bos
om, yielding her nourishment io
'them rather than to those planted
by the hand of man. Man, if he
tvould live, must plant and trim and
’dress and cultivate. The fiat of Je
hovah: “In the sweat of thy face,
■ehalt thou eat bread till thou re
turn into the ground” is written in
letters of iron on the face of nature.
Labor is a law of man’s nature. —

CHEYENNE ~ TROCITIES.
Agent Dyer’s Explanation of the
Outbreak.
Washington, June 24.—The out
break of Cheyenne Indians which
was threatened Saturday last has
been brewing for a year or longer.
Army officials here attribute it to
dissatisfaction on the part of the
Indians at the leasing of their res
ervation to cattlemen. An in
stance is cited of of a Cheyenne
chief being made drunk, and while
in this condition his signature to
an agreement to lease certain lands
was obtained.
LEASES NOT THE REAL CAUSE.
Reports on file at the office of
the Commissioner of Indian Affairs
indicate that the leasing of the
lands was not the original cause of
the trouble among the Indians,
These reports are from agent Dyer
on the Cheyenne reservation, who
ranks as one of the best agents in
the Indian seavice.
DYER LAUGHED AT.
Dyer, on assuming the duties of
the agency, endeavored to control
the Indians He reported to the
Commissioner of Indian
Affairs that they laughed at
his attempts and boasted that the
government could do noting with
them. In August of last year a
man named Horton attempted to
pass through the reservation with
400 ponies. An Indian sub-chief
saw him and shot into the herd,
killing two or moie of the animals.
He then attempted to shoot the
owners of the ponies, when Horton
drew his pistol and shot the Indian.
Friends of the latter demanded
vengeance, and threatened to take
the life of Horton.
TOOK 200 PONIES.
Afterwards they asked for the
400 ponies and finally compromised
by taking half of the number.
Dyer reports that a company of
soldiers came to the reservation at
the time of the dispute over killing
of the Indian, but were apparently
afraid to show their authority. Since
this incident, the agent says, the
Indians have grown more trouble
some and more insolent. The
lives of white men have been
threatened, and only a few weeks
ago an attempt was made to kill
Rev. S. S. Haury, a missionary
among the Indians, “just because
they wanted to kill somebody.”
dyer’s plea for cavalryman.
Agent Dyer was in Washington
some weeks ago, and he urged that
3,000 cavalrymen be sent to the
reservation as soon as possible to
“scare the Indians/” and show
them that the government had a
sufficient force to punish them if
necessary. He thought that if
this method of influencing them
was adopted they could be con
trolled without bloodshed on either
side. He said that the Cheyennes
were as warlike as the Apaches,
that they were well armed and
could put from 1,000 to 1,500 war
riors on the warpath at any time.
THE UTE TROUBLE ENDED.
A. dispatch was' received at the
War Department to-day from Col.
Bradley, at Fort Lewis, stating
that the trouble between the Ute
Indians and cowboys is that locali
ty has ended.
FIGHTING IN MEXICO
Guaymas, Mex., June 24.
Two engagements with Gaqni Indi
anstook place on June 20 and 22.
Two hundred Gaquis and six Mex
icans were killed, A grand attack
was to be made by all the Mexican
forces under command of Gen,
Camona. Three Americans are
reported killed near Saimariza by
Apaches, who were part of Geron
imo’s band. No names are
given.
“Right Peart.’’
“1 was right peart till the rheu- i
matiz sot in,” said a suffering old
man who lives near the swamp.
Fact is, wherever you live you
can t be ’’right peart” if you are a
victim of this troublesome disease.
Captain C. W. Ilotsenpiller, Sring
field, 0., says, “I found great relief
from inflammatory rheumatism by
using Brown.s Iron Bitters ” Thous
ands of other people have found
similar relief.
The Ruins of San Xavier.
For the Carroll County Times.
Phe stage had just been an
nounced to leave in twenty minutes
for the noted, interesting aid his
toric place, known as the old San
Xavier mission. The place is o
cated only ten miles from the old
capital of the territory of Arizona
—Tucson. We boarded the stage
for the place of interest and edifi
cation. The section of countiy
around Tucson will be found to
be a desert, will/ weird, dry, arid
and sandy region. There are a
few mesquite brush that now and
then attempt a break in the tire
some monotony. The cactus plant
and the piercing thistles, names
yet unknown, bleed the traveler
as he staggers on his weary way.
After an hour’s drive we arrived at
the place. The gloomy aspect pre
sented can never be forgotten by
the obserzer. The long, thick
walls around the premises, and the
solemn appearing ascending dome
that has been standing for ages
holds the seeker of the interesting
in history either sacred or profane.
In times of ancient wars, these
walls were barriers against the in
vaders. The melancholy and
down trodden tribes of the “Pap
pagoes,” mechanically march daily
to this church of worship and do
penance for their sins and short
comings, For several miles around
this sacred spot they live on their
little ranches and raise corn, a few
sheep, red pepper (chili) and pump
kins. Their manufacture of eai th
en vessels of all kinds for domestic
uses employs much of their time.
The “olla” an, earthen pot for wa
ter is used much by the Americans
in Arizona during the summer
months. Beside these we have a
few Mexicans of low breed, no
better than the fast fading trjbp of
the degraded “Pappagoes.” Their
general appearance it that of a la
zy worthies “gingerbread*’ colored
darkey. The hair is black and
straight. When the chimes peal
forth the commands of that Cath
olic creed to a priest-ridden
people, they heed at once, and
WMtlvout question or cavil. At six
o’clock a. in. they enter this large,
tiresome looking pile of “adobes”
and confess their many sins with
tearful eyes on bended knees; but,
bless your soul, they keep on steal,
ing and lying. The holy place of
sacriflce and worship is turned
into a place of mockery and shame
The priest gathers in daily the
“dinero,” and sums the income
from the financial investment in
huge walls and most wonderful
gall. He keeps his flock in igno
rance, and teaches them to hate the
Americans. lie rolls in the fat of
the land, drinks h’s choice wines
and the family circle of bis reiig;
ions followers is not safe from his
lecherous invasions. These are
statements hard possibly for some
to believe; but true nevertheless. —
A condition exists in and around
the mission that would not be tol
erated for an instant anywhere
else. The church building is one
of the oldest in the United States,
It is a very large structure and a
costly one. The walls are over
five reef thick, made of adobes
throughout with ,a roof. The
iijsj.de of the church we see Hie ex
penditure of silver and gold, to our
eye, wreckless. The apostles, and
all biblical characters of importance
are placed in solid silver, in tl e
niches in the walK Our Saviour,
Christ,and his sainted mother. Marv
are in a most prominent place over
the niil pit. All of the-e are veiled
and kept sx?. only on special occa
sions. We are surpiisedal finding
not»a seat of any kind in the
church. This is the case in all Cath
olic churches in New Mexico, Ari
zona and Ohl Mexico. The floor
is made of plaster and has a hard
finish. The worshippers come in
promptly and are seated on the
fioor, which positicn is maintained
through th# service except during
kneeling for prayer. The reverence
and faith these ignorant Indians
and half breed Mexicans have in
this the religion of their choice,
puts to shame the progressiye in
telligence of revised editions, and
excusing versions. Their manners
customs, and modes of worship are
crude, ignorant and hideous to this
age of improvement and new in
vention. While they may be igno
rant and low bred, while their
priests may keep them so and abuse
this advantage in every regard, yve
have yet to see in any of them im-
I politeness, vulgarity or disrespect '
for their priest or for themselves. —
iWe never saw any of die young
men talking, whisptring and gig
gling during the services We nev
er saw them chewing tobacco and
| spitting all over the flow, for the
ladies to drag their dresses through.
We never saw them like curs,hang
i ing around the front steps to wait
j and see the girls come out and
break their necks trying to get a
I glimpse of a foot or ankle.
In fine we have not seen anywhere
I a class of people more
polite to their friends, more respect
j fid to their seniors, that have more
respect for themselves, than these
people at church, going to and
coming from church. A lesson
can be learned from them, if we
have the inclination to improve it
and the to retain and
practice it. For generations and
generations, these people of the
Aztec period have here so existed.
We dare not judge their religion
and the convictions of their con
sciences, for their beliefs appear
to be as well grounded into them
with faith as anv Brotestant reli->
gion among the rm<e intelligent
people of the earth. It can not be
said that they will be lost, we do
not believe it, for they have their
bibles and doctrines of religion in
which they believe, which they sus
tain and practice. Faith in, and
good works in that faith toward a
Supreme Being appear to be the
ground work of all religions. And
we believe in nine cases out of ten
the poor “Pappago” in his ignor
ance and unflinching belief in his
religion, will have a better life
hereafter than the rich pew hold
ers of Beecher —Talmage admirers.
So when the final trump is sounded
and all the nations are paraded for
the grand inspection, these poor,
ignorant beings will be
there under jheli un
derstandings and beliefs of their
Creator and hjs desires, and we
shall not criticise nor say one word
in malice. A. C. L.
