Indian Feeling.

We are told tia, since the return OF
the men who were out with Howard,
expressions have been made by Indians
living on the reservation to some OF
these returned veterans who were known
by the Indians, Indicative 1T their III
temper and hostility because they went
in pursui. Of Joseph and his band, and
indicative Of their sympathy with the
hcstiles and disappointment at their i'll
success. How extensive this feeling
may be among the remnant OF I've
tribe we know not, and probably will
not know TIL another occasion arises on
which they can exhibit their real sent'-
ments towards the whites with safety to
themselves. and with some prospect Of
it's meeting with success. 1t has been
abundantly demonstrated that many Of
those now upon the reservation we're in
full sympathy with the hostiles during
the whole struggle, while with some
there was demonstrated an unqualified
sympathy with the success Of the whites
in putting down the rebellion, and pun
ishng the rebels. This sympathy with
the hostiles was natural, for the reason
that branches Of families who remained
a|oot from open hostllitles, were with
the hostiles. This fact Of itself was
enough to apprise those mana tng the
war to trust with great caution the
statements and counsel Of the relatives
who remained. It is convincing
proof of the sympathy o! the kamia In
dams with the hostiles. that while Look

OLYMPIA, Nov. 7, 1877.


The house held al evening session last
night and passed council bill 81. providing
for holding a constitutional convention a,
Wa'la Walla, commencing April 9th. 1878,
TO frame a state constitution 10 he submit
ted 10 the people for ratification or reiec-
ton, such convention 10 consist Of thirty
members. based npon the apporjioomen,
OF The present house OF representatives,.
In an editorial Of the same number If

AS appointing the 9th of April for the
election of delegates to the convention,
and the I'd day OF June as time Of
meeting Of the convention, and Maven.
Der 1878 as the time for submitting the
constitution to the people for adoption
1t further says that the period three
weeks is the limits Of the session of tina,
body and the per diem of members
fixed at S. per day and that the
northern counties Of Idaho are to be in
vited I'd send delegate to that conveu-
ton with the view to being included 10
the boundaries Of the new state. In
another column we publish the remarks
of the Seattle Tribune upon the state
government, published before the bill
was introduced and passed. The fol
lowing is what the Tribune says since
the reporting Of the bill
The state organization bill meets with
onr heartiest approval. II we can annex
Northern Idaho to Washington aud be ad-
mitted as state by the next Congress /,
will suit to dot, but will be at least Two
years sooner than we had anticipated such
procedure This bill is most happy in its
provisions, aud is a credit to its author.
These steps taken by the people of
Washington in their vote for conven-
ton, and By the Legislature in respond
ing so promptly to the vote of the peo-
pie in making provision for the conven-
ton, have ring of the true metal and
would indicate earnes.ness. and the
provision being made to have North
Idaho, represented in that convention
with the view of becoming part of the
new state, is full and complete recog,
milton Of the aim and wish of the people
Of North Idaho expressed on many oc-
casions to become part and parcel Of
Washington, as subscribing their inter
ests more than any other alliance that
could be formed. No other proposed
plan gives promise of relief to the pent
up and vassal condition Of North Idaho
The theory ola new territory, including
Eastern Washington a part of Eastern
Oregon and North idaho, is a myth,
and will be SO so long as Western Ore
gou holds the bulk Of the voting popu.
latiou to oppose the division of the State
boundaries Of Oregon. On tho other
hand the Legislature Of Oregon and
many of its leading men have for years
been making efforts to seize in their
grasp, in addition to their eastern terri.
tory the two most populous and wealthy
counties OF Eastern Washington, Walla
Walla and Columbia, and that too with.
out vote Of the people of the counties
to be so transferred. The. Seattle 7ri.
Dunes remarks before the passage of
the bill, are generous and to the point
and the consideration the legislature is
giving to the people Of North Idaho we
trust will b promptly and. geuer.

Hon. F. S. White was unavoidably
detained at home for several days, after

Jackson and taken his seat in the Legis
lature. Perhaps no member of the
House acquitted himself with more dis

Sentence Of a Mnrdarhr.

HuSriS9DoS, Pa, July G.-Thc
trial of G. A. Reese, for the murder
Of DR., !. 4. Shade, was closed or
Saturday last, tho jury rendering &
verdict OF murder in the second do.
gree. the trial occupied twelv,
days. This afternoon Judge Dean
pronounced sentence on Reese, h,
TO pay $500, cost of prosecution and
be imprisoned at separate and soil
tary confinement in the western
penitentiary for poriod of ten
years.
Reese was married about eight
years ago and about five years af-
forward the wife secured divorce
the result, the husband claimed, o
her farther's Intervention. They
wero reunited the next year and
lived together until November, 1876
when MIR. and Mes Reese left for
the residence of their respective pa
rents on visit, after having made
an agreement TO return in few
days. On reaching home he found
her absent, but discovered her al
the residence Of q friend OF her IA
TIERS. To his astonishment sho re-
fused 10 hold an interview with him
which strange conduct he again at.
tributod to tho influence oxerted
over her by her father. The next
day he visited DR.. Shades resi-
dence, at Shade Gap. this county
about six miles distant, and enter-
ing the drug store he soon became
involved in an alteration, which
culminaled in Reese shooting his
father in-law, four bullets lodging in
his body. The murderer drew his
revolver in the presence of his wife
and she did all in her power TO re.
strain him from carrying his design
into execution. When Dr. Shade
diverted Reese's intentions lie NOV
cd ont OF the store, and his son-iu.
law followed him and fred five shots
at him. The last shot was dis.
charged while tho bleeding victim
lay on tho ground, tho assassin de.
liberately aiming aud firing at his
head, and killing him. The trial
was the longest ever had in Huns
tingdon county. lasting twelve days:
One hundred and sixty-four witness
es were examined and great efforts
were made by the defense to prove
that the killing was done in self de
Tense and that the prisoner was in
sane. The jury returned n verdict
of murder in tho second degree two
hours after the case was submitted
10 them.

IT is now reported that the Molly
Maguires have moved their base Of
operations from Schuylkill, to tho
northern part of Luzerne county.
Reports Of murderers and outrages
in that section are terrible, and, if
true, bring warning TO tho legal au-
thoritios to prepare for prompt rc-
taliatory measures, to the end that
property and life in tho anthracite
region may not become utterly
yalucless. The murderers arc as
open and cold blooded rs those de-
tailed by NJ Parlan, aud tho death
notices 10 the marked men are en-
blazoned with tho coffin and other
murderous insignia Of the Mollies.
John Timlin, nm ex'alderman of
Scranton, was shot in tho street. At
Nanticoke q party of miners were
attacked, Martin MIntyre being
stabbed to death and George w.
Parrine shot and thrown into the
river. No cause for tho murders arc
assigned, except that tho victims
were obnoxious to the Mollies. The
Columbia and Northumberland conn
ty Mollies are again showing them
selves, and a secret conclaye on Sun
day promises some new and terrible
villainy, The mine superintendeuts Is
and bosses are providing strongly
armed guards for the protection Of
the collieries and the miners. The
outlook is not pleasant, when des-
peradoes can set at defiance the laws
power and deiantly perpetrate thoii
outrages, But we are not without
hope that tho Mollies will find the
law too strong in tho end, and, il
q atot the law, the Vigilant Commit
