"How often do we cast aside
The cups Of promised bliss.
And gladly turn us to the East,
So fraught v.,h happiness.
The Brave OregOnians,

There was a great deal said, during
the Modoc war. about what tremendous
things the frontier volunteers would do
if they were only brought into the field.
In fact, several companies of Oregon
ians were ordered ont by the Governor
of their State. They did not show any
desire to 90 into the laya-beds and whip
the redskins, but after the United
States forces had beaten the foe the
Oregon chaps determined to show their
valor.
They fell on a squad of captured
''Iot Creeks" " who had not been en-
gagged in the murders, killed four men
and badly wounded a woman. Mrs.
Swisshelm herself ought to be satisfied
with this feat of valor. OF course the
murderers will escape without punish
ment and it will not be strange if the
massacre bears bloody fruit hereafter.
It is precisely here that the great diff
Guilty arises about treating the Indians
according to the rules of the civil law,
to which we have frequently alluded.
The settlers will do what they please to
the Indians and white juries will never
convict. We do not believe there will
be any stable peace between the two
races until both settlers and Indians,
so far as their dealings with each other
are concerned, are put under the control
of the United States military authori.
