Collins, with. Lieutenant Pitches left
on the samen day. The facts. as we
learn, are that some 150 Bannocks,
men, women.and children with their
tents and-bsegage,. with pc mits from
the agent at Fort Hall, while on their
way to Eastern Oregon, killed. few
cattle-and otherwise trssspsssed upon
the property OF citizens, behaving a.

out committing violence upon persons.
They do not appear to have been
generally armed. aud the fact that they
travel with thei. families and property.
forbids the idea tba: they intended q
hostile demonstration. The cattle
owners were. however, exaggerated and
the inhabitants alarmed, and a slicht
indiscretion might have produced
deplorable consequences. But The

practice of Indian agents permitting

Ths Mystery yet Unsolved and An-
oshsr OemPtaiss Entsred. :
The Times-Review Of Tuesday says
tha Pollard case still hangs fire. JUS
lice Stafford Of Falcon. City, who was
expected in Tuscarora on Monday to
hold the examination, for. some reason
did not put in an appearances. and the
case has been again. postponed to some
indefinite period in the dim mists of
futurity, beyond the limits of judicial
vision or reportorial conjecture. We
could procure no reliable information
yesterday in regard.to the time when
the examination would be held, further
than Justice Abbot informed us that
the case would probably have to be
taken to Falcon City for trial. Most of
our citizens have abandoned the hope
of its coming off during their life times
and have reconciled themselves to the
belief that the solution of the great
problem will be left as heritage to tbs
succeeding generation. Seriously, the
case has already been postponed, too
long. and steps should be taken for
bringing it to q head at once, or it
should be abandoned altogether. Yes
terday the District Attorney filed an
other complaint against Pollard. sworn
to by j. @. Howerton, the uncle of
Marancy. This complaint alleges that

day of September. 1877, Sarah M. Pol.

Doe, whose real name is unknown, un-

ly did represent and personate another,
being then enc there not male person
competent to enter into marriage con-
tract under the laws OF the State OF Ne.
vada, by applying to the County Clerk
for marriage license; that sad de-
fendaut Pollard. swore that he was then
more than % years OF age; that to the
best of his knowledge and belief Ma
rancy Hughes was more than Is years
of age. and that said defendant Pollard
knew of no legal objection to the mag
rage OF said defendant with laid Ma
rancy Hughes. The complaint further
alleges that 10 compli1 noe with the
special request of said defendant, the
said Maraucy Hughes consented to en-
ter into a marriage contract with de-
PENDANT, aud that marriage ceremony
was performed aad said persons de-
clared married, Notwithstanding the
said defendant was at the date of the
pretended marriage, aud still is, fe-
male. and not of the male sex. The
original charge of perjury agaiost Pol
lard has not yet been dismissed.
Commenting .on this the Times Re-
view says-the thing has become mo-
notonous, and it is due to the defend
| ant, the public and all concerned. that
there should be no more postpone
ments or unnecessary delay in bringing
the matter to focus.

efforts to rob me of my good name,

him merited chastisement; but which,
by the aid Of others, he was able to re-
