led tomorrow at 8 o'clock. Warehahni is a
son of Geo. Wareham, of Flat creek. Cot
tie was a prominent stock-grower, ands' has
resided for several years where he was
killed. Indians are supposedto be the MUIR
derers.
The following additional news of the
murder Is obtained from q letter from Geo.
Warner, Benton road, to Sheriff Walker:
Gus. Cottle and John Wareham left Char
lie Carey's ranch, on South Fork of Sun
River, on,Tuesday, I'd inst, to go to Cot
ties ranch, on the North Fork of@the Dear
born, at the foot of the mountains. To.
day, 9th inst.a,) Carey went to Cottle's cab
in, found it broken open and robbed of bed
ding, provisions and blankets and one pair
of new harness lines also n bride. In
front of the door was found several pools of
blood, on which q Feather pillow was cut
open and emptied. A stallion, dark bay or
brown, no brands, is missing; also, fifteen

last week there were seventeen Indians,
suppose to be Nez Perce;,- and three white
men, who crossed the North Fork'@ot Sun

The Salt Lake Tribune Is terribly in
earnest in its warfare againt the polyga-
mou practices Of the Mormons; 30
much 20 indeed that IL does not uish
any person to speak OF anything con-
nected With the subject in any other
then the most serious manner. The fact
is. that the anta2onism between the
Normons and Gentiles in Utah has ar
rived at such a pitch OF bitterness that
il is impossible for either party to do
the other justice. In this state Of af-
fairs the position Of tho Governor OF the
Territory ia q particularly trying one.
The present Governor. Emery. has not
been more successful in his attempt to
solve the problem than his predeces-
sors, as il seems that be Is now in bad
repute with both Mornons AMI Gem
tiles. Affairs being in this condition in
Utah the decision OF the United States
Supreme Court in the Reynolds case Is
most ~anaiously looked for, and although
the strict letter Of the Constitution Of
the United States would protect the
practice of polygamy as being a part Of
the Mormon religion. which it uudoubt-
eddy is, yet the spirit of that instrument
as OF every other legal enactment, must
be for the prevention of crime. The
question for the Court to decide then is
whether or not nOlyunmy Ia a cr;r. al
on that question there is very little
doubt as to what the decision will be.
Then With the decision Of the highest
tribunal in the land that ~poIygamy is a
crime and should be punished ~ other
crimes are punished, it only remains
for Congress to provide for the the Be-
lection Of jnries in such a way that one
polygamist shall not be tried by another
in order to stop the further perpetru-
ton of the CRIME.

The people of Truckee. after having
used persuasion and threats in the vain
attempt to induce the Chinese to rebuild
their houses in a new location, have at
last arisen in a body and torn down the
new houses that were being built, taking
care in doing so, to iniure the material
as little as possible. The Chinese, See
ing tho determination evinccd by the
citizens, offered no resistance. The
Truckee Republican Of November Goth,
in speaking of the affair says:
aside from the cheering and the
somewhat disorderly crash of falling
Buildings. everything was lone quietly,
and without any riotous words. Few Of
tho Chinamen came close to the work
ers, and the few who came were uuusu-
ally polite. Wnh Lee found his house
in the act Of violently tuubling over,
and struck a bargain with the citizens
on tho very scene Of action. For two
hundred md fifty dollars he agreed 10
remove his house. and let tie Safety
Committee have his lot. Nowhere did
the citizens meet with violence or oppo-
sition from the Chinese. There has not
been the slightest effort to rebuild. and
many Of tho Chinese ara getting ready
to leave. BY Saturday none will be left
in Truckee unless it DO Pong Ice. who

The MonSolIan Question
Truckee.
The

A short time ago the Chinese quarter
Of the town of Truckee wac destroyed
by fire. where upon the citizens of that
place fearing that il the Chi nose rebuilt
their houses in the same place,i /. would
greatly increase the danger from FIRE to
the rest OF the town. purchased q loca-
ton near by. but disconnected from the
town and told the Chinese that they
must rebuild their houses there, ana Mt
The same time proposed to buy their
lots on which their houses had been
burned at u fair valuation. But the
Chinese encouraged. as it is said, by n
few white persons refuse to regard the
wishes Of the people OF Truckee in this
matter and have commenced to rebuild
their houses in the old location. They
have procured an ample supply of arms
and are prepared TO resist to the last e1-
tremity any interfereucs on part OF the
whites. In this situation of affairs il
seems that there is iminent danger of
a commencement OF hostilities. In
speaking Of this the Truckes Republican
OF n recent date says:
THE issue must come. The easiest
mode Of settling this trouble will b. to
take the white Cinnamon and give them
a coat Of tar and feathers. The China.
men then will soon change their opin-
ion and move. There are other means,
dangerous to Cinnamon, which might
DO successfully adopted, bu. i. would
be hard to hold them responsible for
the acts Of white copfederates."
