GENERAL SHERMAN AND TIE INDIANS -
General Sherman made speech to the In
dams in the council on the North Platte
last week. He told them the Pacific Rail-
road must be built, and that they could
not be permitted to interfere with it He
added 1t the Indians are damaged, they
will receive compensation. He supposed
they had agreed on the Powder River road
in the Laramie treaty last spring While
the Indians continue to wage war, the
road will not be given up, but if the IN
dians' right is found good, twill be given
up, or compensation paid, if they keep the
peace. Powder and lead would not be civ
en- them until definite treaty was made
A railroad train had been attacked and
men were killed who had no guns, but
were bringing goods. some of which were
to feed the Indians. A proposition was then
submitted for the Indians to accept homes
on the new reservations, and they were
given until the first of November to answer
at the council to be held at North Platte;
at the same time they could hunt on the
Republican. The General also represented,
that we were building costly roads, and
they could not be stopped any more than
the sun and moon in the east. You hardly
think, he said, what you call war here is,
but ifyou make up your minds it will come
to the Plains thick, where there are the
largest herds Of bufaloes, and kill you all.
He also told the Indians that if they want
ed to go east and see for themselves, they
would be "dead-headed'' through. The
chef responded that they only asked for
ammunition, which the Commission finally
concluded to give. The Commission re-
turned to Omaha.

Christmas Again.

EDITOR STATESMAN Il suspect that
when you peuned your editorial on Christ.
mas you little thought what fruitful subject
you was broaching. If all parties will keep
good natured and charitable, 1 do not see
that any harm can come, aud perhaps good
may come from following it, out still fur
thcr. With your permission, 1 will add to
what said respecting its origin, thought
or two respecting its observance. .
1 assent to the apostolic principle that
zone man esteemeth one day above another
another esteemeth every day alike. Let eV'
cry nan be fully persuaded in his own mind"
"He that regardeth the day regardeth it
unto the Lord, and he that regardeth not
the day to the Lord be doth. not regard it."
Or in other words, any one has . right to
observe any day or as many days as one
pleases as religious days but no one can make
the observance of such days binding upon
any one else But while admit this do
not admit that any one has 4 right to OBJ
serve such days j6 an y manner they please
We may observe the day>or not observe it,
but if we observe it at all, We are bound to
observe it in accordance with its design
in harmony with its associations with pro-
priety, appropriately. No body has right
To grossly pervert any such day or custom.
Christmas-if we accept it for what its name
imports-is purely and most sacredly . reli-
giuus occasion, and it regarded at all, should
only be regarded and observed in . most saS
cred aud religious manner If We do not
choose to so observe it, we ought not 70 OBJ
serve it at all. To select such . day for
purely worldly amusements-ballS, parties,
and still worse dissipations-is not only .
pal pablo incongruity, a violation Of ell pro,
priety. 1t borders on sacrilige since, II the
day be not sacred in itself or IN its origin, it
is sacred in its present associations IN the
minds Of many Christians.
The same might be said Of Thanksgiving
day In its origin and ip ih design i Is

right to observe such days as TO render oar.

Savior to some in his day. "Ye seek me

If the world will have seasons Of purely
worldly auiusemenh and dissipAtions, they
are bound by every principle Of propFiety,

FROM THE KoorENGI COUNTRY.-SeveS
al parties have come in from the KoOtanai
country during the last week They report
that mining operations had been suspended
for the winter The work on tue big shaft, "
from which so much has been expected, had
stopped, owing to the water,Wheel, freezing
fast. Tho winter 10 the Kootenai country had
been unusually mild, and miners are calcula.
ting upon an early spring. Provisions we're in
rather short supply, and as a consequence
prices are ruling high. Flour was quoted at
$50 per hundred; Bacon at 81 per fb., and
other articles in proportion. About five hun.
dred persons would winter IN the mines;
three 6fths of these are Cinnamon. The gers
tleman from whom we derive the above ex,
presses the opinion that during the last sea,
son Kootenai yielded at least one>third more
gold than in any former year. He is sanguine
that the coming season will show a still
larger yield. From their position these mines
must necessarily draw the main part Of their
supplies from this Valley, and hence we are
directly interested in their development.

Senators at Washington have at last agreed
on the Dalles as the proper point for the To-

the part of Senator Williams to recognize
the Dalles as the proper point for this insti'

villainy, and have obtained an infamy as
immortal as the cause they have betrayed
and tee States they have dishonored The
Radicals of the North have committed ey-
cry enormity known On the record books
of hell. They have ruthlessly trampled
upon every sacred principle enthroned in
the hearts Of the people and enshrined in
the sanctuary of the Constitution. They
have waged upon the people of the South
the most atrocious and brutal war that ey-
er stained earth or shocked high heaven. :"
And yet the crimes and enormities which
they have committed are insignfcan in
comparison with the gigantic crime against
God and nature, civilization and christian
i;y, which the Southern Radicals propose
to perpetrate on the white people of the
South by reducing them into subsection to
their former slaves. Should they succeed
in fastening the yoke of negro suffrage
Ii Oh US, We will be consigned to a condi-
ton Of helpless degradation, from which
we can only be rescued by Northern inter
ven ton, or by appealing once more to the
"God of battles" The mind shrinks from
contemplating tho sad consequences Of ne
gro supremacy in the South Immigration
would at once cease and emigration would
commence, so that in a short time the
white population would disappear from the
South, and the negro, left without the di-
rection and control of the whites, would
soon lose all knowledge of civilization and
christianity and swiftly relapse into his
normal condition Of barbarism and heath
enism. No man who has the intellectual
capacity required by law to cast vote,
can fail to see the dark and portentous
cloud now lowering in our horizon, and no
one who is not utterly insensible to the OBJ
legations of patriotism and to the welfare
of himself and family, will fail to use eve
ny effort to avert the storm. Surely mo-
tives Of selfshness should make Jealous
those whom the higher considerations of
patriotism cannot influence, in the effort
to turn the tide of fanaticism which threa-
tens to destroy everything worthy Of pre-
servation among civilized people. The
people of the South have perhaps made
more sacrifices in the cause of rational lib
erty than were ever made by any other
people in any age or country since the
world began It cannot be that a people
who are capable Of such sacrifices and of
such immortal deeds Of heroism as were
performed in the late war, can ever be
brought to bear the ignominy and degra-
dation of negro domination? W. W. B.
