COMING TOWARD II.-There is hope.
An Old Democrat. writing for our
sprightly contemporary, The Elko INDIE

history of the Country where it has be-

nine years ago; and when he gets that
through we may look for an advance all

THE INCOME TAX.

A RuMoR has appeared in several papers that
the Hon. William d. Kelley is in favor of the
renewal of the income tax. We have
distinct and emphatic denial of this under
Judge Kelleys own signature, and state
ment that not only has he opposed the re-
newal of the tax in the committee, but that
he has notified the committee of his purpose
to oppose it in the House when it comes up
for discussion. 1t is singular, in view of the
decided expressions of public opinion on this
subject, that any member of Congress who
hopes for election should have the temerity
to propose renewal of this odious and in
quisitorial tax, and it is satisfactory
to know that Judge Kelley and
other of the live members of Congress
will use their best efforts to have it done
amount taken out of a mans pocket by the
income tax that is objected to, so much as
the peculiarly unpleasant incidents attending
its collection, and there are few taxpayers
who would not prefer to be assessed in larger
sums in some less Objectionable manner.
The income tax was war measure, and it
was only submitted to in silence by the peo-
pie on account of the urgency of the occasion,
and because it was distinctly understood that it
was to expire by limitation at a certain aud
early date. That date has now passed, aud to
re-enact the tax would be piece of tyranny
on the part of Congress that would certainly
try the patience of the people more than
almost anything that could be perpetrated in
the way of legislation. 1t is we'll that Con-
gressmen should understand that there is a
disposition to make this test question, and
that those who vote for the continuation of
the tax will be held responsible when they
present themselves for reelection.

policy, if we expect 10 do anything in the
way of civilizing the savsges or to give
security TO the settlers upon the plains of the
far West. The Indian Bureau is and has been
for years completely under the oontrol of q
''ring" whose only objectisplunder. Ithas been
maintained by Congress, through the political
influence of those who compose it, in spite of
the manifold exposures of its corruptions that
have been made, and in defiance of the wishes
of the decent people of the land. Not only
has tho Indian Bureau done no good what
ever, but it has been che main cause of most
of the bloodshed and outrages perpetrated by
the savages, and it has used all its influence
to defeat the efforts of those who from mo-
tives of real philanthropy desire to ameliorate
the condition of the Indians, and, if possible
to Christianize and civilize them. What has
been done, however, in this direction by the
noble band of men of which Mr. Welsh is q
representative, is an encouragement to even
greater exertions. and through their just and
enlightened policy it has been shown that it
is possible to civilize at least some of the In
dams, and to educate them into useful citi-
zens. 1t rests with Congress to say whether
this good work shall be pushed to its legtti-
mate conclusion, or whether the thieves and
robbers who compose the Indian ''ring' shall
be allowed to perpetuate the present dis
graceful state of affairs, and keep up con-
tinual warfare between the savages and the
settlers upon the frontier.

THE INDIANS.

Nh. WILLIAM WELSH, whose devotion to tn
cause of the Indians is well known, has
written letter to the Indian Commission
which meets in New York to-day for the pur-
pose of considering the proper policy to be
adopted towards civilizing the savages and
towards putting stop to the murders and
rapine that now desolate the frontier Mr.
Welsh's esrnestness makes him somewhat of
q partisan, and be is inclined to take rather
more favorable view of the Indian character
than most persons, but, with this exception
perhaps, his letter contains nothing that will
not receive the approval of all right-minded
men. His severe denunciation of the Indian
''ring" is especially well deserved, and it ought
to arouse the people of the country and the
members of Congress to the necessity OF
thoroughly reorganizing our whole Indian

THE Episcopal Diocesan Convention yes
terday adopted resolution, rather ambigu-
ously worded, it is true, but which may be
considered as an indication that the Episcopal
Church will give its support to our common
school system, and will refrain from introduc-
ing any disorganizing sectarian element. In
deed all that the friends of our school sys-
tenn need ask of the different sects is that
they will refrain from all interference with
the schools, and if the other Protestant
determinations will follow the example thus
set by the Episcopalians the.sefforts of oer-
tain zealots to divert the school fund from its
legitimate objects for the maintenance of
sectarian establishments will be frustrated.
The Catholic Church is the only one that has
set itself in direct opposition to
the common schools, and from objecting to
the reading of the Bible it has advanced to
the point of boldly demanding that the COM
mon schools shall be done away with alto
gether, and that the money shall be divided
between the different religious bodies, or at
least that it shall receive it's quota, whether
the other scots concur in the arrangement or
not. 1t is manifestly the duty of the friends
of the public school system to oppose any
such division of the school fund, and the
various religious denominations can aid ma
terially in maintaining the integrity of our
educational system by declining to enter the
field of controversy with regard to it, and by
giving it their cordial and hearty support.

TRANSP PORTATION OF IMPORTED
GOODS OVERLAND

WE are glad to notice that Mr.. Casserly of
California has introduced in the Senate bill
providing for the transportation by railroad
of goods arriving from foreign ports at San
Francisco to any interior collection district,
Immediately after they are landed. A similar
system is even more necessary on the Atlantic
coast, and its adoption would do more to in
crease the foreign commerce of Philadelphia
than any measure that has been suggested.
1t is a matter of profound astonishment that
the serious consideration of a project in
which nearly every important American city
except New York has so deep an interest is
postponedfrom year to year, and that Congress
thus tacitly approves the unnatural and un-
necessary concentration of business at the
New York Custom House, which is at once
the cause of innumerable frauds upon the
revenue and of gross injustice to Philadel-
phia, Pittsburg, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Chi
cago, Louisville, st, Louis, and many ether
hourshing cities. Now that the Pacific
coast is beginning to realize the inconveni-
ence of the old system, We hope that the day
of reform is near at hand, and that resolute
movement in the interest of the whole people,
as we'll as of the communities subjected to

no less sacred and moro touching one OF
children that should have kept her pure and
at home, we find her away from her husband,
perambulating distant States to obtain by
stealth and semi-fraud o divorce she could
not get at home, and then returning to the
companionship of that man whose influence
over her had destroyed her home, divided
her children, and distracted her poor loving
husband. In what, oh gentle Cady, did her
slavery consist ? She had left home and
friends, children and husband, in pursuance of
the advice of her disinterested female friends;
she had travelled unmolested over distant
States; she had broken the bonds that legally
held her to the man she had sworn to 'love,
honor, and obey" Yet, most logical Cady,
you say she was slave! She was only unfor-
tunate, in her own and doubtless in Mrs.
Stanton's estimation, in the fact that she was
not permitted, in open day and in the pre-
sence of Christian people, to live with the
man for whom she had cast off husband,
children, and honor. If it be slavery to re-
main contented, virtuous, and happy, it is
most devoutly to be hoped that American
woman may long Iemain in state of the
the most abiect slavery, and if freedom sig
nifies all Mrs. Cady Stanton would have us
infer it does, may kind Providence protect
American wives and daughters from its bale
full shadows Thank Heaven! the Anthonys,
Stantons, Blakes, and Blackwells, with all
their gatherings, resolutions weak-tea
chickering's and rawlings, do not represent, in
the most in6nitesimal degree, the virtue,
dignity, or thought of American womanhood.

The willard Murder Trial

HARTFORD, CT, Oct. e.-At the opening Of the su-
perior Court to-day the counsel OF James Wilson, on
trial for the murder OF Warden Willard, OF the Con-
nectcut state Prison, retired from the case as the
prisoner desired TO conduct his own defense They
will simply advise the prisoner legal points. The
evidence for the prosecution then commenced, aud
DR.. jackson testified to the character OF Wilards
wounds, and Deputy Warden Martin testified to the
fact of the killing, and also that prior to the killing
Wilson had been confinedfor forty-eight hours in
dark cell for attempting to escape. The witness
sharply crossexamined by Wilson to the length of
time he (Wilson) was confined in the dark cell, but
could only testify as to the time recorded in the
punishment book. The prisoner then asked If he
(Wllson) had not shown witness offensive meat
which had been furnished for rations? The prose.
cuton objected to testimony Of that character and
the Court ruled 1t out At this stage OF the trial as
It did not tend to show that the killing self
defense, though IL might be admitted at later
stage on some other question. Wilson said IL this
testimony was refused he had no further defense
put should leave the prosecution to go on as
they saw ft. The Court asked the prisoner If he
would allow his counsel to go and he replied that
they would have nothing further to do; that it
would expense to the State to let the prosecu
tion proceed alone. To a question OF the Court
counsel replied they had nothing to say. Wilson
then turned his back to the Court and during the
animation of the next Witness who was the Chap
lain OF the Prison sat moody and obstinate till the
Court adjourned, for a recess.

had acquitted himself with credit without having re-
