The Indian Murderers Overtaken and
Punished.

By the last Humboldt mail we received letter
from Indian Agent Pratt, Of Hoopa Valley, an
nouncing the partial success of the party under
" Redwood Jim,'' sent out three weeks ago to
chastise the marauding band which has been
doing so much mischief Of late. About week
ago the wild Indians were, overtaken and at
tackled. Two bucks and one, squaw were killed
and seven women and Henry. rifle taken. The
Indians fought most of the day and until Jim's
party had exhausted their ammunition, when
they started for Three Cabins, on Mad river, the
others following them some distance. Two of
Jim's party dangerously wounded, and
while caring for them four of the squaws escaped.
One of the Indians killed had double-barrelled
shotgun, supposed to have been taken from
Smith & Middleton's man, murdered at Fort
Baker last spring Jim's party failed to get the
gun in the excitement attending the fight.
The party attacked consisted of nine bucks
and ten squaws, with several children. The at
tack was made in the mountains between Van
Deuzen and Larribee creeks, about eighty miles
from Fort CASTOR. The captive squaws say the
party killed the man at Fort Baker, and wounded
Sanburn at the "Corral " last month They
further say that the Henry rifle was taken from
the man murdered at Baker, as we'll as the shot
gun which Jim's party failed to get. Mr.. Pratt
writes that after short rest Jim will return with
a larger force and plenty of ammunition. This
is good beginning, and settles beyond doubt
the question as to whether the recent depreda-
tiOns were committed by reservation Indians or
not. We congratulate Redwood Jim," and
take this occasion to express the opinion that he
is 'good Indian" wishing him greater success
next time.
Indian affairs are reported comparatively quiet
in the valley. There are many bad Indians there,
and it requires close watching to prevent an out
break. 1t is believed that the Hosters and the
opposing reservation party will fight at the first
opportunity We have a notion that it would be
a God-send if they could steal all the howitzers
at Castor and use them until not single red
skin was left on the reservation. That is the
surest way to attain permanent relief from In
dian disturbances.

Seymour first ran for Governor of New York he
went so far behind his ticket, that though every
ether candidate thereon was elected, he was laid
out by Washington Hunt. In 1854 he was again
whipped by Myron II. Clark. In 1864 he was
whipped the third time by Reuben E. Fenton.
Accustomed to defeat he is the proper man to

1t is with no common satisfaction that we
announce the advent of this distinguished
Western soldier, orator and patriot. If there
were nothing else TO commend him to our peo-
pie, the fact that he is favorite object of Reb-
ell and Copperhead denunciation and abuse is
sufficient evidence of his standing as an ear
nest and efficient friend of the Republic The
path of Logan for the last six years has been
strown with the crushing and broken cohorts
of treason and rebellion. In the field and on
the stump his appearance has been the sigma
of the enemy's overthrow. The meeting to-
night will certainly rival in numbers and en-
husiasm the glorious ratification meeting on
the evening of the State Convention. 1t will
be seen that Gen. Logan will make some
what extended tour through the State. To
counterfeit tine effect of his eloquence it will
be of no avail to to our Democratic friends to
import cargoes of Perrins from New York to
appeal to the lowest and basest passions and
prejudices of our people.

INAUGURATING THE CAMPAIGN-The Demo-
Gratis OF this city inaugurated the present cam
paign Saturday evening, after waiting nearly
one month, by ratification meeting at CITY
Hall and raising flags from their headquarters
at Market Hall and at the Argus Office They
have thrown out beautiful flag from Market
Hall to the store of Mr. Chadwick. There
were two or three hundred persons present lis
tening to the beautiful music from Chambers
Portland Band Mr.. c. H. Haskell called the
audience to order and w. l.. Putnam, ESQ.
made few remarks. The flag was greeted
with cheers as it unfo,ded ITSELF
The Band then led the way to the Areus
Office, the crowd of men and boys following,
where, amid rockets and Roman candles. our
neighbors threw out handsome flag,-but,
alas! it bears the names of Seymour and Blair
1t is the same size as the one displayed from
the Press Office.
Col Adams, proprietor and editor OF the Ar
gus, undertook to make a speech, but he broke
down. The Colonels forte is not in speech
making, and he knows it. He said sixtv-five
years ago, when the Argus was established, it
supported Jefferson. Now it threw out the
flag for and supported Seymour, who would
prove second Jefferson. Here the Colonel
forgot the rest and wound up by calling fol-
three cheers for the flag, which were readily
given.
The ratification meeting at City Hall was a
warm affair-the mercury, as we should Judge
standing at 80 degrees. The hall was well
fill, and we noticed among the number many
Republicans, who were attracted thither by
curiosity. The ladies invaded the seats on the
floor, and made themselves as comfortable al
possible Mr.. G. H. Haskell called the meeting
to order, and, on his motion, Hon. Bion Brad.
