The judicial election in California yesterday
did not seem to excite much interest. The
election was for judge of the Supreme Court of
the 5. ate and three candidates were in the field.
The republicans nominated Judge Samuel A.
Dwinelle, democrat. but recently identified
with the municipal reform party; the demo-
Gratis Samuel Bell Mckee, and the independ-
ents or "people's party" Elisha W. McKinstry
Our dispatches from San Francisco to-day in
form us of the election of MeKinstry by large
majority.

1t is TO be hoped, for the sake of common
decency and honesty, that the state authorities
of New York will mete out stern justice to the
defsulting cashier of the state treasury, and
that they will not, under any circumstances,
aid in compromising a felony by compromising
with the thief. Let the man who steals $500 900
be punished at least equally with the poor devil
who steals loaf OF bread or a pair of shoes.

by the Partisan lCr ties of wearing the hair low
on the neck. II promises, however, to become
quite popular with the demi- monde, ON this side

EDWARD r. S. CANBY, Brigadier
General in the regular army. and
Brevet Major General, was a native
of Kentucky. He was appointed to
the Military Academy at West Point
from that State in the year 1885.
Graduating in 1889, he was commits
stoned second lieutenant in the I'd
infantry. On the 18th Of June,
1916, he was promoted to first Lieu
tenant, and in the following year he
was made brevet captain and assists
AIT adjutant general. During the
Mexican wal he won two further bre-
vets for gallant and meritorious con-
duct. In March, 1855, he was pro-
noted to major of the 10th infantry,
and upon the reorganization of the
regular army in the spring of 1861,
he became colonel of the 10Th in,
fantry.
His services during the war were
active and conspicuous, and advanced
him rapidly to the rank of major
general of volunteers. On the 2Sth
of July, 1866, he vas commissioned
brigadier general in the regular army,
which position he held at the time of
his death.

atrocities, including larceny, arson,
and murder, they are treated like SO

bassy is appointed to have a talk

plicit confidence is placed in their

coaxed to return and partake of the
fatted calf that the generous Great
Father has killed and prepared for

Portable situation compels these pam
pered criminals to accept the proffered
invitation, their crimes are white
washed with red and yellow ochre,
and their Infamous conduct rewarded
by liberal donations of costly trinkets.
Bloodthirsty savages, who had been

and whining, much smoking and a
heap of talk, they are permitted to
return to their kith and kin loaded
down with n~umberless presents. In
a short time they resume their bloody
work, and if, perchance, these chiefs
are captured, they readily explain
by excusing themselves under the
plea Of inability TO control their
young warriors. We have for some
time past treated the whole proceed.
ings with the handful of Modocs as a
costly farce. The farce has wound
up in a tragedy, and that tragedy is
to be followed by a drama, which we
hope will terminate in the extermi-
nation of the whole Modoc tribe.
The unexpected treachery that
eliminated in the deliberate butchery
Of the Modoc peace commissioners,
makes humanity shudder at the bru-
tai degradation of these wretches.
Like a spark dropped into a powder
magazine it explodes the theories and
speculations of philantropists of the
quaker stripe, and places the Indian
once more before the American peo>
pie in his true character. The whole
fabric, based upon the vagarie. of the
so-called peace policy men, must now
fall before these irresistible facts.
but if in the end the life blood of
General Candy and his massacred
companions shall serve as a sacrifice
to save the lives and property of
hundreds of other peaceable citizens,
we may yet have the consolation
that they have not died in vain.

\ TIMELY BUT COSTLY LESSON.

The cruel assassination of General
Candy and Messrs. Thomas and Mea-
cham, while acting in the capacity of
peace commissioners, by the cowardly
and p~erfdious Captain Jack and his
gang of red-skinned cut-throats, cam
not fail to teach the nation a timely,
but rather expensive lesson. 1t will
undoubtedly forcibly impress upon
President Grant and his cabinet the
criminal folly of pursuing the So
called Quaker policy in dealing with
bands of %marauders and murderers of
Indian extraction. 1t will arouse
the entire nation to a just under>
standing of the character of the
noble red man, whose chivalry and
manliness have so frequently beenex-
tolled and misrepresented by extrava-
CANT romanccs, from Fennimore Coop
er down to the present yellow-back
novelist.
An organized band of white thieves
or highway robbers is usually pur-
sued by sheriifs and militia. If cap
tured they are dealt with in accord
ance with criminal codes, aud
often in accordance with the
rules and regulations of a
vigilance committee. II, however,
a band of copper-colored savages or
g%anizes for rapine and plumber, de-
liberately commits all manner Of

The ~inexcusable folly of the Indian
peace policy received a very forcible
illustration at Washington yesterday.
While the whole nation was in con
vulsions of indignation and rage at
the peridy of the Modoc assassins,
III religious Commissioner of Indian
Affairs was delivering himself of a
sermon, which had for its text "The
only road to reform of the noble red
man lies in the path of salvation"
We apprehend the only road to In.
dian salvation lies in the path of the
cannon, rifle ball and sabre.
