Hon. n. B. Strait.

This gentleman, having been the
congressional representative for
three years, is again the republican
candidate. Ordinarily, men who
have been so long in public life have
made some mistakes which their
political enemies have at hand to
charge against them when they come
up for reelection; but Mr.. Strait is
singularly clear of any record that
can be used to his detriment.
In the absence of anything to say
against him, his enemies have resort
ed to abusing him because he has
not made record with which they
could find fault. This is all there
is about the charge that he has done
nothing. He has really done, we'll
and promptly. whatever there was
for HIM to do for the promotion of
the interests of his constituents; and
we cannot see how anybody else
could have done more.
Since the canvass opened we have
asked his opponents to allege
against him something positive, but
the only replies have been general de-
traction and abuse. They have con-
tented themselves with this and we
have had nothing to reply to-. IfMajor
Strait has been guilty of wrong, the
people should be told of it plainly, for
he is a public officer and his acts are
proper subjects of criticism.
In the absence Of any material fault
being found with him, is it not some
what impertinent for republicans to be
asked now to throw him overheard
And for what? Why, either that
Judge Wilder may be honored, or that
Mr.. Thacher's failure to obtain the
nomination may be avenged! This il
all there is to it. We would delight tc
do honor to Judge Wilder, and were he
the republican candidate, he would re-
ceive our earnest support, but it is Ger.
tainly not right for republicans to sci
aside an unobjectionable gentleman,
nominated by their own party, in orde,
to aid in electing the candidate of the
opposing party.
And as for avenging the indignity
put upon Mr.. Thacher, we don't know
that he suffered any, for the convention
had right to nominate whom it pleased
The assertion that Mr.. Straits nomina
tion was procured by the federal Office
holders of the district, in sheer non
sense, for the reason that these Office
holders are too few to accomplish tina
result, unless the people were willing
that it should be accomplished. To 90,
that the few oh6ce-holders in this dis
trict can control the republican conven
tions is simply to insult the masses o
the republican party.

Those opponents Of Major Strait
who hold him responsible for all the
abusive articles against Judge Wilder
that have been published and all the
tricks which they claim have been resor-
ted to by his friends, would hardly
deem it fair for us to hold Judge Wilder
responsible for the printing of spurious
republican tickets, with his name SUBJ
stituted for that Of Major Straits ?
Well, we do not believe that Major
Strait is u party to or even cognizant Of
any unfairness practiced by his parti-
zans; nor can we, suspect that of Judge
Wilder would countenance the use of
unfair means to secure his election.

In our opinion, Gov. Hayes is not
only very worthy and estimable gen.
tleman, but one eminently fitted to fill
the high position for which he is nomin-
ated. He will certainly pursue the line
of conduct which is indicated in his
letter Of acceptance and no influence
will induce him to swerve therefrom.
He will be truly the President of all the
States, and be entirely just and impair
tial in administering the government.

These are the amendments to the

II of Article /.
"If any bill presented to the govern
or contain several items of appropria-
tion of money, he may object TO one or
more Of such items, while approving of
the other portion IT the Lii. In such
case he shall append 70 the bill ut the
time of signing it, Il statement of the
items to which he objects: and the ap-
propriation 80 objected to shall not take
effect. If the legislature be in session,
he shall transmit TO tn. house in which
the bill originated a copy Of such state
ment, and the items objected to shall
be separately reconsidered. If, on
reconsideration, one or more of such
items be approved by two-thirls of the
members elected to each house, the
same shall he Il part Of the law, not
withstanding the objections of the gov.
ernor. All the provisions Of this sec
tion, in relation to bills not approved by
the governor, shall apply to cases in
which he shall withhold his approval
from any item or items contained in a
bill appropriating money!
We shall vote for this. Amendment
to section 3 Of Article l.
"That there be added ut the end If
section 3, article 6, the following words,
viz: Whenever all or a majority of the
Judges of the supreme court shall from
any cause be disqualified from sitting
in any case in said court, the governor,
or, if he shall be interested in the re-
suit of such case, then the lieutenant
governor, shall ass ign judges of the dis
trict court of the State. who shall sit in
such case, in place of such disqualified
judges, with all the powers and duties
Of judges of the supreme court
This, also, shall have our vote.
Amendment to section three of article
ten.
That section of article 10, of the
constitution be amended so as to read
as follows:
"Section 3. Each stockaolder in any
corporation shall he liable only for all
unpaid installments on stock owned by
him, or transferred for the purpose OF
defrauding creditors
This has our approval, likewise, fol
in our opinion it expresses precisely
what was intended by the original
clause in the constitution prior to its
first bungling amending.

the band, and previous to its destruc-
tian by General Crooks soldiers, was
u book full of curious drawings, which
appear to be the military record, ex-
pressed in picture form, Of some one
of the young warriors belonging to the
Indian band. We have seen the book,
which contains many sketches re-
markaDle for bold dellncation aud
truthfulness of nature, bearing in
mind, of course, that the same is the
work of an untutored Indian artist.
The pictures represent attacks on
American wagon-trains, parties fray-
cling along the highway. Ina few ins
stances female figures occur. The vie
Tins are pictured as being seal ped shot
with rifles and arrows, and stabbed
with lances. In some of the pictures
the parties attacked are Indians or
other tribes, Crows and Pawnees be-
ing especially noticeable. Nearly all
the scenes are painted in bright colors;
the blue uniforms of the murdered SOL
dlers and the red trappings of the
Sioux braves are especially vivid. 1t
is quite certain that every scene 80
pictured was an actual occurrence.

longed has very sanguinary record,

pears to have been an account book
that was stolen from some post-trader.
