Baltimore is to be complimented by the

present.
Hon. Joshua Vansant thinks that the "tri-
umph of the principles of the Democratc-Con-
sentative party will result in the restoration
of the lost rights of the States" This reminds
us of the Indian mode ofcuring their sick. The
old doctor goes through his incantatons and if
the Indian lives he cured him. The patient
takes it because he knows no better. Just so
with Josh. This statement may satisfy the in
telligent (?) Democrats and we have no doubt
it amuses Josh.

TIE LAST SLAUGHTER.-The Modoes have
played havoc with the forces in search of them.
There were sixty-nine men detailed under the
command of Capt. Evan Thomas to reconnoi.
ire for the ambushed Modocs and scour the
country for them. They formed line and
skirmishers advanced undisturbed until they
reached the foot of the bluff south of the lava
beds. They signaled the camp that no In
dams were to be seen. The Modocs shortly
after opened severe fire upon the advancing
soldiers when they were struck with conster-
nation. The Indians were well secreted be
hind rocks and bushes and poured merciless
fire upon the unprotected troops. The fire Of
the Indians was so dreadful and destructive
that forty-rine out of the sixty troops were
killed and wounded. Sixteen were killed and
thirty-three were wounded.
Much hard language is used against the In
dians and much absurd verbiage is slung
around on the subject. But we are inclined to
think that the Modocs were not properly treat
ed-they were imposed upon, and were not the
orginators of the troubles. Then the entire
Indian race must not be slaughtered if a few
Modoes did act in bad faith. And for this last
slaughter the Indians are not most to blame.
It could not have occurred without blunder-
ing of some sort

AN 0UTsPoKEN LANDLORD-An rate landlord,
who objects to being berated for refusing to
rent his houses to people who have children,
writes letter upon that and kindred subjects
to daily paper. In this letter he utters con-
siderable sound sense in a crude and crusty
shape. For instance, he says:
'People who cannot buy houses and cannot
control their children ought not to have them.
As it is, children are our masters, and every
day they grow more tyrannical The Metho-
dist minister was properly punished for his
large family. With his small prospects and
small salary he had no business to have so
large family. look upon poor man with
large family as no more deserving conside
ration than a drunkard, a glutton or gamb-
Ter. If people choose to load themselves down
with many children it is their own fault. In
the struggle for existence they will go down.
while the chaste, continent and provdent will
rise up and enjoy the good things of this life.
Men ought not to marry under thirty; by that
time they either will have accumulated saw
ings or got positions justifying them in mar
rying, or will have proved themselves failures,
when they have no business to marry"
While we cannot endorse the manner of the
epstle, we cannot wholly dissent from its mat
ter. There is much truth in it concerning the
vice and folly of people who can only hope to
live from hand to mouth getting married and
bringing into the world broods ofhelpless chill
dren, whose fate, excepting by accident or ex-
ceptional circumstance, can be of only the
gloomest character.

RAILROAD TIEs.-A recent lumbermans circu-
lar estimates the number of railroad ties in pres
ent use in the U. States at $50, 100000 A cut
of 200 ties to the acre is above rather than under
the average, and it therefore has required the
product of75O,OOO acres of wel-timbered land to
furnish the supply Roilroad ties last about FIVE
years; consequently 100000 900 ties are used an
nually for repairs, taking the timber from 1907
600 acres. The manufacture of rolling stock dis
poses of the entire yield of $780, 900 acres, and full
supply of nearly 500, 900 acres more every year.
1t appears, them that our railroads are stripping
the country at the rate of ,OOO 900 acres per an
mum and their demands are rapidly increasing.

unteer their opinions upon the peace policy of

| Candy at the hands of the Modocs. This is a
mistake. The policy wherever it has been
tried has proved successful. Wherever the
Indians have been placed under the care and
supervision of those entrusted with the eXecu-
ton of President Grants peace policy there has
been no disturbance. All has been harmony,
peace and prosperity among the Indians. They
| have gone to work, cultivated the land, built
houses and taken kindly to the habits of civiliz
| ed life. Wherever the Friends humane policy
| has been carried out by the administration
there has been no murders and no massacres.
But where the Indians have been placed un-
der the supervision and control of the War De-
partment, massacres have marked their man.
agement This was the case with the Modocs.
They were never under the Peace Commission
but the military. They had been removed
four different times against their wishes and
| had been sufferers to a considerable extent by
the operation. They had been exasperated,
when three men were despatched as a peace
commission to treat with them. While their
conduct may be somewhat reprehensible, they

The Ohio legislature has taken very
praiseworthy step. 1t has passed law COM
