ing the wretched condition Of

that ere its close the Banner

exception. Even he, savage,
pitiless and cruel as he is, is
entitled to humane treatment,
should he submit and keep
faith with his compact. But
other Indians generally, bad

like him. The Modocs, for in

best quality, have a right to
complain of the treatment they
have received, and we believe
that every life heretofore lost,
and that may. be sacrificed
hereafter in the effort to end
the troubles with them, may
be traced directly to the
wrongs they have suffered al
the hands of grasping white
men, who desire their lands

This from the Sparta Rural
Times, edited by Judge James
R. Head, President of the Bour-
bon Democratic Convention of
June last:
TAX REsIsTANCE.-As special
dispatch to the Shreveport
Times, from New Orleans of
the 7th says:
"McEnery government main
tainS their position with the
people, and will organize
resistance to Kellogg in every
manner except by force. A
central committee has been
formed, with branches in every
parish, to resist and delay the
collection of taxes; they de-
clare their purpose to withhold
all support from the usurpatiOn
forced upon the people by the
military power of the general
government"
1t seems to us this is prose
cutting the struggle into d
hopeless extremity. An appeal
has been made by the peoples
Legislature, and the peoples
Governor, to the Supreme
court of the State, the Presi.
dent and Senate of the United
States, and finally a resort tC
arms has been had, all of which
have resulted adversely to Oul
claims; and it is folly to pursue
the fruitless conflict any furthel
for the present. The time vii
| surely come, when the down
trodden tax ridden people o
Louisiana, will be liberated
from the present and past reigl
ofusurpation, oppression ignor
, ance and venality; but at thi
juncture the odds are hopeless
