them, she described certain matches

Immediately identified the articles,

explained that, during the early part

forces were advancing on War-enton,
he gathered up his children and what
little furniture he could, and moved
off toward the Blue Ridge Mountains.
Some ume afterward he returned to
his home and found that these gar

Late news from Idaho, the scene Of
the recent Indian massacre, states
that there were more white settlers
killed than were named in the recent
DISPATCHES. A letter says: The In
.dians have killed every man on Sal
mon river, but let women and chill
s.dreu live. The reservation
at Lapwai has been abandoned. A
Washington dispatch says that secre-
tary of War, McCrary, thinks that
one cause of the Indian outbreak in
Idaho was the small number of troops
in that region. The Indians estimate
the power of the Government by the
number Of soldiers they see in the
country they inhabit, and, believ-
ing they can muster three or four war
riors to the United States one, they
are emboldened to begin hostilities. IL
is estimated that ii " i'll require 500 sol
iiers to put down the hostiles.

The new civil service reform rules,
which the Administration is prepar-
ing for the instruction and restriction
of the Government officers and EN-
pioyes are not yet ready. The Presi-
dent seems tn have given good deal
of attention to the subject, and is very
much opposed to having Federal Of
tice-hoiders take an active part in the
active machinery of current political
movements, and in this direction the
new rules will be definite and strong.
The President thinks principal is at
stake, and that either the office-hoid-
ers should give up their political ma
nipulations or resign their positions.
This may be all well enough, but We
cannot see why Federal office-hold-
er, or any one who is otherwise in
Government employ, should not enjoy
equally with other citizens, the rights
and privilege Of active participation
in politics. There is such thing a.
running civil service reform into
an absGrdity.
