Further investigation into the unfavorable
reports affecting the Indian office, which
were outlined in yesterdays dispatches, goes
20 silbstnntiate the probability that convinc-
ing proof of mismanagement cannot much
longer be kept from the public. 1t may be
already said to be almost certain that the hu-
rcau will be transferred to the war depart
ment. Feeling against the bure,u among
western senators and representatives., who
have given the subject attention, is univer
sal. Commissioner Havt, hey say, has de
anything to do with Indian affairs, and they
say also that his management by system Of
espionage ia utterly repugnant 10 American
ideas of fair play and necessarily tending to
corruption. He has appointed Interpreters
and other minor officials whose appoint
ment the law expressly gives to others. He
has in several instances ordered payments to
be made that were not warranted by law,
and has several times violated plain treaty
etipulations. All unite in saying that his
ignorance of the laws and treaties pertaining
to the Indians is uncommonly dense and
that things have got into such fix that the
quickest and best way to straighten them out
is to send the whole bag and baggage to the
war department..
The most satisfactory solution Of the
pending Indian troubles will be the course
outlined in the foregoing extract. Give to
the army absolute control of Indian matters,
clean out all'speculating investigators, depose
the inefficient commissioners relegate Ham
mond to the sweet rest of oblivion and every
thing will be lovely.

The Detroit Free Press of the 18th inst.
contains two column article in the shape
correspondence from Yankton, upon the
subject of Hammond's Indian seizures,
which is liable to startle the eastern world.
1t seems to have been either written or in
stigated by Gen. Hammond himself. as 1t is
laudatory account of his doings and q
deprecatory account of the wickedness OF
those he is doing it to. The distinguishing
paragraph in the correspondents, is this:
"But the ring has received blow in the
person of the recently appointed United
States Indian Inspector. Gen. j. H. Ham.
mond. who was chief of staff to Gen. Sher-
man during the rebellion, which latter gen.
tleman he very much resembles in appear
ance and manners"
1t is remarkable coincidence that Gen.
5 Hammond should resemble Gen. Sherman
In appearance and manners, and that he
should have been his chief of staff during
the rebellion. This circumstance. perhaps,
might be written down as the secret of Gen.
Sherman's wonderful snccess as military
man. Yet Sherman doesn't know it. He
doesn't even know that he resembles Gen.
Hammond or that Gen. Hammond was his
chiefof staff during the rebellion. Neither
does anybody else know it, except the party
who wrote the Free Press letter. History
has failed to record these important facts
and men who were with Sherman during
the war don't remember anything about
them. But We call to mind, suddenly,
that the Free Press is humorous paper,
given to broad sarcasms and whole columns
ofirony. There's no use saying any more.
This is the explanation ofthe entire article.

OUR REGISTERED VOTERS.

At the present writing the number of reg
istered voters i'll this precinct is about go,
which number will probably be increased to
1000. This is, taking it in round figures,
about $50 less than was on the Great Resister
of this precinct two years ago 1t is estimated
that our vote at the coming election will fall
short at least 400 votes of what it was in 1876,
Probably out of 100 votes fifty voters whose
names are now registered have left Carson
lately. OF the other $50, the number repre-
senting the decrease on our Great Register
from 1876 to the present time, some are
scattered throughout the State, while a ma
jority of this number have probably gone to
Bodie. where, OF course, their votes will be
lost to Nevada.
LArER-At the close of the registering last
evening at 9o'clock the total nunher OF voters
registered in this precinct was 99O.

door, and seemed to have some urgent bust
ness with man around the corner. Whether
he was playing the stage villain, the fellow
who carries away the young heir and gives it
to the gypsies, or was taking that basket with
its live contents to put it carefully away in the
hind boot, will probably always remain an I'M
