1t seems that there is n number of colorej
politicians, colorcd ofllce-holdcrsand colored
aspirants for Office In this city who have
formed what they call an Equal Rights
League" the ayowed object of which is to
nominate and support black men for office.
The purpose OF this party, It's organization
and Intentions will be found In other columns
this morning. The names Of those who figure
in 1t are familiar to the people of this
city. In one shape or another We have
known them for ycars-now throwing thom-
selvcs In opposition to the city authorities;
again a. followers Of the Liberal Republican
party In the last campaign; rs the agitators
for mixed schools, and as the supporters and
advocates Of every measure calculated to stir
up bitterness and strife between the two
races, and throw the colored people back
ward In tho struggle which they are making
for advancement, morally and politically
With few exceptions these men are the
curse Of this community. During the
last few years they have introduced
more turbulence, more disorder, and engcn-

The action of the President and of the Sec
rotary of War, approving the sentence OF the
Modoc murdercrs, will be commended by the
great majority OF the people Of the country.
We are aware that there Is certain humanl-
tartan class who, under mistaken notion OF
the duty Of the Government to the Indians,
are using every means to induce the ex-
crcise of the Executive clemency In regard to
the condemned; but carcfal consideration
Of the whole case Ought to convince every
body that every motive Of policy and Of
craftsmanship prompts the immediate pun
lshment of the guilty.
The crime which Captain Jack and his
hloodthlrsty associates have committed tran
seconds In cnormity almost all other crimes
that the Indians have perpctratcd, and should
he punished accordingly. The Government
should show that, while 1t adopts u
merciful and humane policy towards
the Indians, there are nevertheless crime.
which cannot be pardoncd and offences which
cannot be cOndoncd. The murder of so true
and brave and loyal q soldier rs Gen. Candy
comes within this category. Mercy to Cap
tain Jack would be the grosscst cruelty, not
only to the Indians, but to the white
settlers on the frontier. To allow these
Modoc nurdercrs, whose hands are red
with the blood of so many Of our troops,
to 60 quiet and free among their brethren
would be little short of crime, and
would, In the end, only necesstate a still
greater number Of executions than those
which, II Is to hoped, will take place in a
short time at Fort klamath. Hanging Is the
greatest indlgnlty which, in the estimation Of
his tribe, can be visited upon an Indian, and
for that reason, II for no other, the decaplta-
ton Of Captain Jack will, We are confident,
be followed by the most beneficial results. II
Is to be hoped that no argument will induce
the President to change his mind on the sub
ject and allow these vagabonds their liberty
