Hon. J. R. Luttrell, member of Congress
from California, has visited the scenes of the
late Modoc war and investigated the causes of
the difficulties that resulted so disasterously to
the good name of the Anglo Saxon race. He is
clearly of the opinion that it was caused by
wrongful acts of bad white men. This is the
opinion that we have entertained generally of
the difficulties with the Indians. l
We do not wish to be misunderstood in this
matter of the extension of the city limits We
are seeking light upon the subject. We do not
believe that we should be doing justice to the
city, the county, the suburbans or ourselves if
we resisted extension blindly, giving no better
reason therefor than that we were opposed to
having the county lose any of her territory.
The question demands an intelligent discussion.
Out of the considerable number of Japa-
nese students that have been sent to Annapolis
and West Point to be educated for sailors and
soldiers, but one has failed to pass his requisite
examination and keep up with his class. One

cheney as to be unable to keep up with any
class and will have to be dropped. Perhaps
Americans do not show better general aver
age than that evinced by the mild-eyed Japa-
nese.

A NEW THROUGH RAILROAD RoUTE.-The COM
pletion of the tunnel through Baltimore, to
connect the Northern Central and the new
road built by the Pennsylvania Railroad, from
Baltimore to Washington, (the Baltimore and
Potomac,) will now enable the Pennsylvania
Railroad to run through trains from New York
City to Washington over their oa0n roads, by way
of Philadelphia, Lancaster, York and Balti-
more The struggle to get through Baltimore
has been long and holly contested one. The
Baltimore and Ohio road refused to allow con-
nection, by which the cars of the Pennsylva-
MIA and Northern Central could be run over
that road to Washington. This refusal made
the buildingRf the Baltimore and Potomac a
-,,-.s7as.'s.-r 73sity, and the brains of the men
who manage Che Peansylvania Railroad con-
ceived the project and with their boundless en-
ergy and abundant means, undertook and ex-
ecuted the work, and to them, the people ofthe
East, the North and the West, who, in passing to
the Capitol of our Nation, owe this deliverance
from all annoyances. This is an achievement
by the Pennsylvania Railroad in which the
whole people can have a just pride.
But very few years ago, to have gone to
Washington from New York over this same
route, a passenger would have to change cars
at least five times. Now he seats himself in
his pullman Parlor car" chair at Jersey city,
and in nine hours he is landed in Washington
city, in the same car and in the same chair.

Although there seemed to be sort of belief
among certain Greeley men last year that the Re-
publican party had completed the purpose for
which its organization came into existence, vet
the vast majority of the people Of the country de-
clded otherwise. And we think they decided right
y Republicanism has been the most successfulre.
former that has figured in any age Of the world.
Bold, aggressive vigorous. determined and un-
firing it has cut down the most gigantic institu-
ton of tyranny and oppression that the world
has ever seen. 1t has destroyed, as far as law can
do it, every vestige of that institution. It has
preserved the existence and given new lease of
life to the greatest nation on the globe and the
best government that has ever been devised BY
man. 1t has paid off large portion of the debt
contracted in perpetuating the American Union
and transmitting the blessings of American liber-
ty to future generations, Illuminating the nations
of the world along the pathway of freedom in its
broadest, most comprehensive sense. 1t has ex-
cited the wonder of patriots everywhere. 1t has
called forth the admiration of philanthropists in
every quarter of civilization. 1t has excited the
anguish, the hatred and the respectful fear and
dread of every mail-clad monarch in Christendom.
Its benign influences have been felt and feared by
potentates and hailed with exultant Joy by the
millions of those struggling to gain purer in
spration of liberty to elevate their fellows in the
scale of human advancement.
The American name was never so widely or
favorably known as now. The "Stars and
Stripes" are hailed with prouder satisfaction and
profounder joy throughout the world to-day than
at any former period. The development of every
latent resource that slumbers in the national realm
has been contemplated and many of them placed
far on the road that makes them useful and brings
immortality to those who conceived and executed
them. The national muscle is stouter, the nation
al heart purer, the national pulse stronger
since the Republican party has controlled the
destiny of our people.
Just what the Republican party has done for the
elevation of the Republic we want her to do for
the advancement of "My Maryland" Then let
every man whose hand and heart has been given
to the promotion of the Republican cause in the
State take deeper inspiration and urge with new
vigor and warmer ardor the cause that has the
welfare of all men for its object the dispensation
of equal justice for its grand purpose and the ele-
walton of the human race in the scale Of its being
for its motive
Rally again, neutrality-suspicious., and let the
impotent power of Greeleyism feel that new and
stouter vigor animates your hearts and hands.

in causing his death. They were accordingly
