GOT AN OFFIcE.-We have been very
dIlatory IN announcing the fact that our
esteemed contemporary, General John
Miller Murphy, has been appointed
School Superintendent for Thurston
county. This recognition of merit is
not only encouraging TO editors in gen

MoDoo WAR.-The General Govern

MoDoC WAR.-The General Govern
ment having ordered suspension ol
hostllities against the Modoc Indians,
and appointed Peace Commission to
treat with the hostile Indians with the
view of complying with their demand
for cession of lands of their own Sc
lection in the State of Oregon, as re-
servation for their own exclusive use,
under Government subsidy and protec-
ton, which would necessitate the re-
moyal of white settlers, citizens of the
State, and secure TO the murderers and
robbers of many white citizens of the
State amnesty for their manifold crimes,
Governor Grover has issued a firm and
well-considered proclamation against
this Federal invasion of State authority
and superceding of State laws relating
solely to the protection of life and prop
erty OF citizens of the State against do
nestle violence. In this position the
Governor is not only vindicating the
unquestionable rights ofthe State against
Federal usurpation, bnt is interposing,
to tEe.extent of his power. the only pro-
lection to the exposed settlers OF their
homes and repetitions of Indian ont
RACES from which that portion OF the
State has SO often suffered. The heart
less folly of conceding belligerent rights
to nomadic bands of thieves and mur-
derers of defenoeless citizens, is bad
enough when exercised upon territory
exclusively under Federal jurisdiction;
but the attempt to establish penal col
ony within the bounds of an independ-
ent State, in violation of law and con-
tempt of State authority, is simply ont
rageous, and if it leads to deadly conflict
as it inevitably will the blame must
rest upon the arbitrary assumptions of
Federal authority.
The grand jury of jackson county
has preserted true bills of indictment
against number of these Indian out
laws for mur er. The whole power of
the State is compelled to aid in their
arrest; and if lawfully tried and found
guilty, what legal authority has the
President, or any one holding office un-
der him, to arrest the Judgment of the
Court? 1t is time that State laws were
vindicated IN the case of Indian crimes,
and Governor Grover will have the SYM
pathy and support of all law-abiding
citizens in the stand he has taken.

OLD FOLKS CoNcEKT.--Noeve which
has happened in Seattle within our re-
collection caused such unbounded de-
light and such superlatiye terms of
praise as the ''Old Folks Concert, by
Olympia amateurs, on Wednesday even

Church, in this city. There were 33
persons from Olympia who took part in
the concert. all dressed in ancient cos
tune. We would gladly give list of

to this object, but the copy which was
brought to the Office was taken away

EDITOR DISPATCH: Noticing in youi
paper yesterday the allegation, tha,
every British Indian in the city could
be lawfully and righ.fnl!y imprisoned, y
am led to ask still further: whether
every white person who EMPLOYS. o,
harbors Northern Indian for any pur-
pose whatever, is not liable to prosecu.
ton under the law?
The writer of this we'll remembers.
that shortly after the murder of Col.
Ebey, law was passed, making it a
penal offence for any one in the Terri
tory to employ Northern Indian, and,
ne has reason to believe that the law
has never been repealed. 1t may have
been dead letter so far, but if still on
the Statute book, it can be revived.
We might thus strike in both direc-
tons, the Indians who have no right
here, and the parties who have no right
TO employ them. A PIONEER.

The scalp, by its uss, becomes white

and dandruE, and, by its tonic prop
critics, prevents the hair from falling
out. as il stimulates and nourishes
the hair-glands. BY its use, the hair
grows thicker ard stronger. In
Badness, it restores the capillary
glands to their normal vigor, and
will create new growth, except In
extreme old age. Il is the most eco

as it requires fewer applications,
and gives the hair splendid, glossy
appearance. A. A. Hayes, MD,

The Keeue Sentinel correspondent
says that they have citizen in Walpole
who describes minutely incidents that
occurred while be was at school in 1903,
and the family Bible record shows that
the same citizen was himself born in
1901. Where is the equal of this, for
strong and stirring memory

striking upon his face, which, with one
shoulder, was badly bruised.
