A comparison of the condition of the
hostiles with those who were at the
reservation was not favorable to the
latter, and chiefs Oaitz and Eagle Eye
were for taking the war path. Chief
Egan, who was the last Indian to
leave the reservation, counseled peace
and ordered the hostiles to leave the
country. Instead of obeying his
orders, they took him prisoner and
forced him to take up arms against
the whites. Though this Indian
talked for peace until he was hoarse,
and intended to escape at the first
opportunity and hide with his un-
armed followers in Stein Mountain
until Jerry returned from McDermit
to his assistance, price is now upon
his head, sufferer by the war named
Ruby having offered $1,000 for his
scalp. Should he hear of this gen.
erous offer, and learn how his actions
have been misconstrued, it is not
likely that the Bannacks will have
much trouble in holding him a pris-
oner or in compelling him to fight
the whites.
This Indian war which has cost
many settlers their lives, and a great
many more the property which it has
taken years to accumulate; which
has laid waste an extent of territory
larger than three or four New
England States; which caused women
and children to leave their homes
from the Central Pacific north to the
Salmon river, aud from Fort Hall
west to the klamath Lakes; and
which will cost the Government the
lives of many of its bravest soldiers,
and millions of dollars, could have
been prevented by feeding the Indians
at reservations according to agree
ment, or letting them live on the re-
sources of the country and the wages
of their labor, as the Piutes do here.
To prevent the yearly occurrence of
these wars, the Indians should be
turned over to the War Department
and provision made for supplying
the aged and decrepit with food, at
least during the winter months, and
military posts established on the
frontier, to intimidate bad Indians
and give the tribes what the Govern
ment appropriates for their support.
wRETCHES WHO DESERVE HANGING.
from the Idaho Ayalanche.l
Among the Snakes and Bannacks
of Idaho there is an element meaner
and more cussed and dangerous than
Indians. We refer to the class of
white men called "squaw-men." In
the Snake river country in Idaho,
extending west to the Columbia in
Oregon and Washington, there are
certain white men, either outlaws or
shiftless lazy wretches, who have
joined the Indian tribes. They CO.
habit with squaws, and it is to these
men half-breeds owe their existence.
They are usually thieves and cut
threats, and it is on them that the
Indians rely for supplies of arms and
ammunition when at war with the
whites. Sometimes it happens that
squaw man arrives at place of
authority in the tribe, and as such, in
case of war, leads the redskins against
his own people. 1t is to be hoped
that if the troops or citizen-soldiery
capture any squaw-men among the
Bannacks they will give them short
shift and long rope. The wretches
are not deserving of mercy. Hang
ing speedily and without judge or
jury, should be the fate of the white
man arrested in company with Sarah
Winnemucca.

puL1-posgD BY THEIR ENEMIES
Conflict Between state and Federal Judi.
ciaI Authorities I'm virginia.

RtcuxoSp, Nov. 3O.-The interference Of
Judge Rives, OF the United States Circuit
Court, with the Circuit Court Of Patrick
county, Va, in taking possession Of two Of
the latter courts prisoners, has caused
great indignation, and will, no doubt, be
the subject OF executive protest and legis-
latiye investigation. Burwell and Lee
Reynolds, colored, were charged with
murder, and one had been sentenced to
the penitentiary. The exclusion OF men
Of their own color from the jury caused
them to appeal to Judge Rives, who issued
writ OF habeas corpus cum causa. Dep
uty Marshal Wooton thereupon went
to Patrick Court House and Sc
cured the prisoners, who were Ia
ken by him to Chatham, one hun
bred miles distant, and lodged in Jail
there. The Sheriff OF Patrick was not at
the Court House when the prisoners
were removed. He says that had he
been he would have protested against the
removal OF the one under sentence, but
would not have made forcible resistance.
II Judge Treadway (the Virginia Circuit
Judge) had been at the Court House, he
would have directed the Sheriff to refuse
the Marshal the keys OF the Jail. 1t is the
opinion OF Judge Treadway, that 1t Is now
the duty Of the Governor to act, as he re-
CARDS the action of Judge Riyes and his
Deputy Marshal, as fragrant violation Of
the Constitution.

New England cigar Makers.

SPRINGFIELD, November 30-The depar-
ture OF several cigar makers from this city
and Westfeld to California, where they
are promised steady work with greatly in:
creased pay, is occasioning a good deal OF
talk among the craft. In the present some
what depressed condition Of trade here.
about, more are thinking OF following.
Those who have already gone started upon
the promise OF their California brethren to
see that they have constant work and OF
pay, for the same cigars that they get 50
to S. thousand for making here, at the
rate OF 81 to SIG thousand. The Cali
fornians have TO employ Cinnamon in cigar
making, "white" workmen are not numer-
Gus enough to supply the demand, but
they write to the men in the East that
the general feeling against Chinese labor
is so intense there that it is almost i'm.
possible to sell cigars made in shops where
Cinnamon work. They therefore urge oil
the cigar makers in the East, who are out
OF employment to come to their state, re-
ceive steady employment, good wages, and
show the Chinese that they must CO."
The great drawback to o general exodus OF
the trade from this section is the cost OF
the journey, which for railroad fare alone,
and second.class at that, is $65 to so. In
some, cases cigar makers have dubbed to-
gether to help one Of their number of,
and in that way indirectly benefited them
selves. A dance is soon to be held by the
craft in this city to raise funds for that
purpose.

The Coming Iisht THAT is to supersede


New York, November S0.-The foreign
mails show thatthere is no abatement in
the interest excited in regard to electrical
illumination. This is conspicuously shown
by the number and Importance Of the
company who assembled In the machine
room OF the London Times to witness the
success achieved by NJ. RapleR in lighting
il up by his new system. N. Raplef Is u
Russian engineer who until lately held an
official position in the dockyard ut Odessa.
The proprietors Of The Times had faith in
the engineer and his invention, and fitted
up for him and his assistants a workshop
and laboratory in their own establishment.
The large machine-room holds eight
Walton machines, and Is lighted by six OF
NJ. Raplef's lamps, yielding a brilliant,
white, steady light. The aeddinkss OF the
light is a striking feature, the Pickering
andjumping so usual in some systems be
ing entirely absent in this. 1t is very EVIL
dent that the light answers the expecta-
tons of the proprietors OF The Times, for
arrangements are being made TO extend
this system to the composing-room and
other parts OF the establishment. The
machine used is a Gramme dynamo-elec-
trio machine, producing alternate currents,
but n single-current machine is said to an
swer well for the system.
One-horse power is, 1t is estimated, sutti-
Gent to produce light equal to one hun
dred ges Jets OF twelve candles each. Eight
inches of the carbon points are consumed
per hour for each light, the cost Of the
points being at present twenty cents per
ward, but It is expected they viii be made
cheaper shortly. Among the company
who were invited to see the lightin opera
ton were Mr.. Ruddal, engineered the Lon
don. Chatham and Dover railway; the
manager OF the Great Western railway, the
chief electrician from the postotice and
many members Of parliament.

Iron and Nails.

General Powell, OF the Bellville Mil, who
has been in Wheeling for day or two,
saws that his mill is getting s. 25 delivered
m ST. Louis. The dealers there assort
from his mill, and hence his better price.
He still holds on 10 old rails.
The rates OF freight on iron from Pitts
buryh TO the East are now as follows: To
Baltimore, lsc;to Philadelphia, Ice; to New
York. 2lc; to Boston and Providence, &c.
As will be seen by the foregoing state
ment, these rates apply to iron only, and
reduce the figures to the same charges as
those which existed for some time past
previous to the recent advance.
The New York Bulletin Of Saturday
speaks hopefully Of the iron market, and
says that evidences of improvement in
general tone to values Of American pig are
more prominent, and one instance at least

now demanded by the Thomas Iron Co.
giving confirmation OF the apparent change
Tor the better. Demand is fair, but not
particularly encouraging for this period,
there yet being belief among some OF the
larger buyers that all cheap parcels have
not been taken up. @
The Pittsburgh Gaaste Of Saturday,
speaking of the Nail Market, says that
"While business here is almost at q stand
still, tits not for want otbuyers, but because
our manufacturers are refusing to sell at
current rates; il they were willing to &C
cept ruling prices, they could soon fill
their books with ORDERS but in view Of the
fact that an advance is anticipated about
the first OF the year or soon thereafter and
the figures ruling for some time past, do
not cover cost OF production, 1t Is not
strange that our manufacturers are out OF
the market. We continue TO quote at
81 90a2 %, go days, with two per cent of
for cash." ~ BIS
A recent Chattanooga letter says OF the
Nail market down that way that it is de-
monlfzed. We quote: "The Western
Associated Mills are quoting them to GUS
toners throughout the South at from 81 so |
TO 8 90 rates at the mill. Memphis and
all the towns and cities along the Lower
Ohio and Mississippi are full OF Pittsburgh
and Wheeling nails, which are freely
offered at prices that win not net the max
ers as much as they ought to get for bar
iron. This sort Of ,jayhawking will prob
ably go on as long as several receiyers in
charge Of Western Associated mills can
keep ahoat. But there can be but one end
Il tits persisted in. The mills here have
been retrenching in every way possible,
and still manage to remain in the market
without actual loss. We quote at s. %
