T,rE coon TINE COMING.

1t is the opinion Of the staunch old Dem
ocratic Albany Argus that the unreal and
phenomenal issues which agitate and IN
settle the political system this year will
work themselves out during this year and
next, so that in 1880, the classifying pro-
cess will be nearly completed, and then,
in the great campaign of that year, the
Democratic party will come out as the ex-
ponent of the actual and lasting principles
Of politics and policies Of government.
The stable elements will rally round it by
instinct and logic. The discontinued ele-
ments will resort to it, under the wise
monitions experience will have admin
istered. There will be no party opposed to
it. Instead of a party a congeries of isms,
led by a lot of unfumigatel Christian
statesmen, will be the opposition to the
National organization. The canvass will
be exciting but not serious. Exciting the
same as the chase of q June rabbit across
a hundred-acre cornfield by a regiment is
exciting. Not serious, because it doesn't
matter whether the rabbit is caught or not,
he being good for a foot race but worthless
for game. In 1880 the fun of the Demo-
Gratis will be great, but of actual contest
against them there will be nothing.

THE ALBION ASSESSMENT.
THE MARTIN WHITE DECISION.
Fixing She Day for Sprague's Exc
cuti0n.

SAN FRANcIsco, October IT.
The Albion Minimizing Company have
levied an assessment Of rs cents per share,
delinquent November 10Th.
The Martin White Mining Company have
Just received notice that the Supreme
Court of Nevada has decided in the Com
pany's favor the suit brought against it by
Mr.. Gleason. This settles the long-pend-
ing controversy between the Martin White
Company and the Ward Consolidated Min
ing Company, the successors Of Gleason,
relative to obtaining a patent for the Pay
master mine, now being worked by the
Martin White Company, q part Of which
had been claimed by Gleason and the Ward
Consolidated Mining Company. This de-
cision. it is represented, relieves the Martin
White Company of al opposition to their
claims.
SAN B~UENAvENTuRA, October II.
In the case of F. o. Sprague, convicted
Of the murder Of I. Wallace More, and
whose case was appealed to the Supreme
Court, District Judge Fawcett refuses to
settle the bill of exceptions, and orders it
stricken from the files of the court. He
says il contains redundancy and verbiage
Of over 200 pages of testimony, etc., hav-
ing been filed as part of the bill. AS tile
leading attorneys for the defense are not
here, it is not known what course will be
taken in the matter, either amended bill
will be filed which will be acceptable. The
Conrt will fix a new day for Sprague's ex.
~ecution. the original day having passed.
SACRAMENTO, October II.
Last evening while a number of the
members Of the Convention were gathered
in the Assembly Chamber, the Conven-
ton having adjourned, a drunken man
named Hale strolled in. ~Sergeant-at-
Arms Sherwood was leading him ont,
when Hale made some rude remark.
which Edward Barry, Democratic Joint
Delegate from Siskiyou, Trinity and
Modoc, who was passing by. took to him
self. Drawing a pocket-knife he rushed on
Hale and cut him three times in the neck.
Sherwood and Delegates Tinnin and Far
rell seized him, when lie cut the former
severely in the hand and cleared himself.
He then paraded up and down the Cham
Der, gesticulating and talking wildly. Of
ficefs soon arrived and arrested him..
Barry's friends say be has previously been
in the insane asylum from the effects Of
drink, but lately appeared to have re-
formed, and being a man Of ability, became
the choice of the people of his section. His
present action is supposed to be the result
of a return Of his old malady from recent
indulgence in liquor. His scat will be
declared vacant and an attempt made to
commit him to the asylum. His wife and
family ara in Oregon.

GENERAL sHEAMAN ON THE IN
DIANS.

General Sherman is reported as declar-
ing that he sees but little prospect OF civ
ilizing the Indians, and that such a result,
if ever attained, must be through their
own efforts that some few of them may
get to scratching the ground a little, but
that the warriors, who compose a majority,
will starve rather than work. There is an
adverse comment on this opinion, in the
fact that 100, 600 full-blooded Indians are
already civilized, and that not less than
10000 former warriors" clad as white
men dress, and supporting themselves by
hard work, as white men do, voted at the
last Presidential election. The history OF
the Winnebagoes and other great nations
proves that the Indian is, generally, clvllIz-
able. Even assuming that General sherman
is correct, it is no justification of our past
Indian policy, or Of that which the war
Department is anxious to inaugurate. Ii
the savages will support themselves by
work, it would be cheaper to gather them
together and board them at hotels In from
tier cities at one dollar a day apiece, than
to try to continue the wretched treaty sys-
tenn that breeds wars on the one hand and
thieves on the other. Whether Indians
will work or not, the tribal system ought
to be abolished, treaties annulled, annui-
ties withheld, arms and ammunition kept
away from all except the settled farmers,
and all ought to be compelled to obey the
laws, and to be entitled to the protection
of the laws. If they cannot or will not
work, let them be supported like other
paupers. The tribal treaty fraud is a total
faiIura

MIR. DAGGETT'S OPINION OF THE
HUMBOLDT WORKyNGMEN.
(winnemucca Silver State,

Referring to the workingmen who were
indicted by the United States Grand jury
for alleged violation of the Burlingame
treaty at UnionviIle in 1869, Mr.. r. NJ.
Daggett, then, as now, editor of the En-
terprise, says in a recent issue Of that
paper:
s.And Of those in Humboldt who still
hold q grudge against him for his acts, it
is safe to wager hat not three out Of the
whole party have ever paid SO much as a
poll-tax, and that those who remember
them longest cannot remember one day Of
their lives when the world would not have
been just as well off if they had never
lived"
OF the men here referred to many are
yet residents of this county, and W. could
name a score of them whose names appear
ON the tax roll now. as they have for several
years past. A half a dozen Of them nave
been elected to responsible positions, and,
although their dislike for Chinese is per-
haps as intense now as it was then, they are
among the most reputable inc respectable
citizens Of Humboldt. Many of them are
Republicans. and some OF them have been
elected to Office on the Republican ticket
in this county, because of their avowed
opposition to the B~urlingame treaty and
unrestricted Chinese immigration. Will
these men stuttl1y themselves anu KISS iiie
hand that smites them by supporting Mr..
Daggett for Congress? Will they, at this
day, when the whole country, East, West.
North and South, is beginning to realize
the magnitude Of the evils resulting from
the Burlingame treaty, which accords to
the barbarous hordes Of Asia all the rights
n privileges Of subjects of the most IA
vored nations, go back on their record and
pledges, and support, for Representative to
Congress, a man who, through the col
umns Of his journal, denounced them as
the ~s'offscourings Of creatures" and eulo-
gized the Chinese as their supcriors So
cially, morally and intellectually? This
was years ago, when Mr.. Daggett, as Clerk
of the United States Court and editor Of
the Enterprise, endeavored to prejudice
the public mind in favor Of the Chinese
and against the white working men Of the
State. Now he attempts to renew the feel
ing by asserting what is false-that not
three OF the white men indicted by the
United States Grand Jury in 1869 for al
legged violation OF the Bnrlingame treaty
ever paid even a poll tax.

THE POLITICS OF THE FIGHT.

Member Of Congress and the legislative
ticket constitute the political aspect of the
pending canvass in Nevada. Other of
icers are, of course, important in a parti-
san sense, but none nave a direct bearing
on National politics save that portion of
the ticket we have mentioned. There is a
remote contingency that Mr.. Deal, for in
stance, by his vote might be able to decide
whether the next President shall be a Dem
ocrat or q Republican. 1t is fresh in the
minds Of all that any one State in the
Union would have changed the result of
the last Presidential election. There are
now three political organizations in the
United States. Should the Greenbackers
develop sufficient strength, which is posi-
bic II not probable, to carry a single State
the contest for the Presidency in 1880
might, in that case, be transferred to the
House. Once there, the partisan majority
from . State casts the whole vote of the
State. That is to say, Mr.. Deal, compris-
ing the entire delegation from this State,
would cast Nevada's three electoral votes
for the Democratic candidate for the Pres
idency. 1t is, therefore. shown that a vote
for Mr.. Deal is the next thing to a vote for
President, and no Democrat should any
more think Of scratching one than the
other.
In like manner our legislative ticket is
politically important. A United States
Senator is to be appointed by the Legisla-
ture at the coming session, to succeed SEN
ator Jones. If the Legislature be Demo-
cratic, a Democrat will be selected.
Hence, a vote for a candidate for the Leg
i~slature, in either branch Of that body, is
Q vote for q Senator OF the United States,
an Office Of the first Importance as reflect
ing and shaping national politics. 1t fol-
lows necessarily that our party strength
should be thrown solid for our legislative
nominees. No matter whether all of the
are entirely acceptable or not,
they should be su ported in a body. Po-
aitically speaking, they are but the instru-
through which the will of the SOW
ereign people is executed. Let it not be
said that we elect the Democratic State
ticket and deliberately throw away the
high political offices within our reach.
Too often has this been the case with the
Democracy Of Nevada. Let it not be re-
peated in the present canvass. Rather let
Democrats throughout the State make a
grand rally for their legislative candidates,
and see il We cannot wrest the national as
well as the State Offices from the control of
the opposition.

The revival Of foreign immigration to
vthis country begins to be very noticeable.
During last month the arrivals Of i'm
at New York we're S,955, against
l6,673 for the same month last year; during
the last three months they were rs, 1868,
against 90, 100 in the sane time last year.
Causes are now at work that will still
further add to this increase. The Socialists
in Germany have avowcd their intention Of
eemigrating to the United States by whole
sale to avoid persecution at home. There
are something like 900, 900 Socialist voters
in Germany; should they all take it into
their heads to come hither with their farr-
lilies. they would form a handsome addi-
tiou to our population. The threatened in
crease Of hard times in Great Britain will
also have the effect OF accelerating and en-
iarging the emigration movement. 1t will
not be surprising if, ere long, we shall see
the tide Of emigration rolling in upon us in
- great = volume as ever.

Good government depends mainly on the
character of men selected to administer it.
II is therefore incumbent upon every good
citizen to qualify himself to participate in
the selection of those who are to hold the
reins Of government for the ensuing term.
To be prepared to do this, registration
must not be neglected. Let every citizen,

THOSE CIPHER DISPATCHES.

The following from the New York Sun
cannot fail to meet the approval of good
citizens everywhere. The SENTINEL most
heartily subscribes to the sentiments of
the Sun
We do not mean to question the good
faith of our contemporary, the New York
Tribune, in the publication of its cipher
dispatches, when we say that it has left the
public, thus far, without evidence which is
conclusive or sufficient of the genuineness
of the dispatches-of the correctness of the
translation.
And while. if the kilograms are what the
Tribune supposes them to be, Mr.. Manton
Marble may be thereby reduced to marble
dust, a very cheap commodity in this mar
ket, yet Mr.. Tilden may not be smirched
in the least. There might nave been a
good deal Of tar about without his touch
ing it, or its touching him. Mr.. Abram s.
Hewitt has already declared his own inno-
cence, emphatically. He is a man without
guile, and he was Mr.. Tildcn's nearest
friend.
For ourselves, we have but one creed
for all men, for all parties, for all times.
We do not believe in buying votes We
| do not believe even in s'hiring public Off
GERS to do right" We would not nave the
Constitution violated once, by the estab-
lishment of an Electoral Commission, if il
would make certain a Democratic success
sion for a thousand years.
Men can do without office men can do
without almost everything but the conn
try can not do without the Constitution,
and men, either ind, vidually or collective
ly. can not do without honesty.

The Murder of % Umatilla Indian.
WASHINGTON, October II.
General o. o. Howard telegraphs from
Fort Vancouver that a Umatilla Indian
was murdered on the Goth ult. by white
men, and that the Umatillas have, within
three weeks, lost 500 horses, taken by
whites. He asks: Cannot the United
States District Attorney be instructed by
the Attorney General to attend to this and
other cold-bloodcd murders of Indians by
white men. A few examples of such JUS
tice would do more for peace than a whole
summers campaign. The foregoing was
Endorsed by General Sherman as follows:
1.-THE Umatilla Indians should be protected
in their lives and property as far as pos
sible by civil agents, as also by the mill
tary, but after a crime is committed the
civil court shall try the case and adjudge
the measure of punishment" A dispatch
thus Endorsed was sent by Secretary Nc
Crazy to the Indian Bureau to-day, and
Acting COMMISSIONS Leeds has referred it
to Secretary Schurz, with o recommends
ton that measures be promptly taken to
bring guilty parties to punishment.
