Under the above title the Boise Statesman
claims to give the knowledge AMI op inions
of Father Mespie in relation to the presen t
outbreak among the Indians, aud it's pros.
able strength and duration. We would
much prefer that the Father had given his
views in his own language over his own
signature than to take them through the
medium OF the Statesman, which seems to
be unduly filed with forebodings of evil.
Things are bad enough without exaggera-
ton. The statements Of the strength and
purpose ofthe Indians given in the States.
man are widely different from those which
have come from any other source, and the
number Of warriors that can be mustered
in all the bands named, is four-fold their
real strength as known here. Beyond that
not one-third of the warriors have guns
and ammunition if Joseph is successful in
a few fights it is apparent that be will have
large accessions to his force by young rest
less spirits from several of the other tribes.
But those best informed of the Indians in
this section do not believe that any tribe
as body will 90 over to Joseph. We
should take no false alarm, be prepared to
repel andcheck promptly any force, and
determined to suffer no delay in nipping
this war in the bud, and so Gripping every
Indian, whether professedly friendly or
otherwise of his means for warfare. Thew
must not be suffered to possess the snews
of war at a time like this.

EIOLDYOUR GROUND.

/
/ The alarm consequent upon tae Indian
Eoutbreak affects different dispositions and
temperaments in a widely different manner.
Some have their mag inations and torebod-
ings of evil terribly infamed rendering
them wholly obtuse to calm consideration
4 Of the facts developed in the situation.
Their excitability is contagi ous even among
the more cool-headed by reason Of sympa~
thetic EN- otion.f The old settlers of the
country are generally more cool though
some of them have evinced much emotion
| by reason of the sudden attack upon and
murder of the settlers. The fact of the
known treachery Of the Indian character
renders those the longest and best acquaint-
ed with Indians, doubtful as to the extent
Of the hostile intentions Of those bands
who imm ed lately surround them, while the
new coniers arc mostly disposed to view al
Indians in time like the present, as con-
shutting a part Of the hostiles. Hence it
seems impossible to allay fears and uncer-
posed families and property. In view of
all the facts surrounding our settlers it be-
hooves them to use all dne caution in plac-
ing their families where their defences
against injury from sudden outbreaks are
comparatively safe. When this work is
done, all able-noded men should see to it
that their houses, grain fields and other
property are not lett in an abandoned
state as a temptation 20 plumber and de-
struction by renegade Indians who happen
to ind them abandoned. All weak ness on
the part Of the settlers only fans the war
and marauding spirit Of the Indians, even
among those who nj ght otherwise be peace
ably disposed. We can see no reason why
any portion of the country around US should
be left unprotected by the absence Of the
settlers who have commenced to make
them homes there. Hold fast every inch Of
your ground. 1t may require nerve and
courage to do this under all circumstances,
but it is the srrest method of restoring
perfect peace and quiet, and the means Of 4
the settlers will be preserved with which
they CAN soon recover what eS have lost
by reason of the excitement While the
settlers do this much, the troops that are
in the field are expected tc be prompt ag
sressors upon the openly hostile bands and
pl nish them as they deserve.
