Onlv thirteen Radical voto

Only thirteen Radical votes
could be obtained in the House
of Representatives on Monday
for a resolution in favor of a
general amnesty; but the coun-
ter'proposition, a bill imposing
penalties upon all who may ven
ture to advise OF influence ne
groes or other Radicals to vote
an opposition ticket, at any poll
was rushed through the same
body without debate, under the
previous question. Many Re-
publicans have professed to be.
lieve-and some, we suppose,
have actually cherished the ex.
pectations-that the adoption
of the Fifteenth Amendment
would be made the occasion
for a sweeping removal of po-
litical disabilities, and the en-
franchisement Of the white peo-
pie of South. There was an
expectation widely entertained,
if not a direct promise, that the
proclamation of the negro
amendment would be followed
at once by a message from the
President urging upon Congress
the immediate passage of an
amnesty act. Every consider
alton of sound policy and en-
lightened craftsmanship GER
talnly demands such an act; but
the infatuated crew of malig.
nants who rule Congress for
the moment are little affected
the hopes or desires of the
great mass of the people, or by
ideas OF craftsmanship or pat
riotism. They can conceive of
no higher rule of action than
one which promises partisan
success, and an extension of
that hold upon power which
has afforded them opportunities
for plunder. To enfranchise
theSouthern whites, they know,
would be to insure the speedy
overthrow Of the carpet-bag
thieves and scalawag hen-roost
robbers who now control that
region; and the downfall of
these would be a sure premo.
milton of defeat for the whole
Radical party. Hence no hope
of a liberal policy from that
party can be reasonably enter
tertained. If peace and the
reign Of law is ever to be re-
stored inSthis distracted land,
it is evident that the people
must begin the work of resto-
ration by driving out the mon
ey-changers and other scoun-
drels who have made of the
National Capital a den of
thieves.

The Democratic newspapers
of Indiana print the names Of
upward Of three thousand men
who have been active and eff
cient workers for the Radical
party, who announce that they
have left the party on account
of the fifteenth amendment and
other negroisms which the
Radical leaders are seeking to
fasten upon the country. In a
few short months more there
will be nobody left in the Rad
ical party but negroes and
soon-to-be decapitated Office
holders.

SCHoOI. MONEY.-We have not the space
in this issue, nor the inclination if we had, to
waste time in replying to all the SANDERS and
inuendoes contained in late issues of the Radi-
cal papers published in this Territory in regard
to the action of our Democratic Legislature,
and more particularly those articles referring
to school matters in Boise county We will
only say that the school children in Boise coun-
ty need no championship through the medium
OF Radical press, nor in fact from any quar-
ter. So far as regards the surplus money on
hand in the school fund of Boise county, which
now amounts to about $4,000, it cannot be ap-
Piled for any purpose. other than that for
which it was collected, without being done by
special act of the Legislature, and we con.
slider it rather premature to engage in the dis
cussion of any such measures ut this time.
The fact that the money raised for school pur-
poses is now more than sufficient to defray all
the expenses of our public schools, and sur
plus constantly accommodating in the treasury
which can be put to no use and laying idle in
the treasury vaults, drawing no interest, is q
sufficient argument with us that the assessment
or levy for school purposes should be lowered,
and if no other use can be made of the money,
it had better be loaned to some other fund and
used in paying off some of our interest-bearing
debt. We shall refer to this matter again
should it be necessary, but our contemporary of
the Statesman need entertain no fears of the
children of Boise county being deprived of
school facilities
