Braymnn's Message.

In Gov. Brayman's message to the
idaho Legislature occurs the following
in relation to the Indian war of 1877
aud 1874 true picture:
The Nez Perces war of 1877 and the
Bannock war Of the last season furnish
proof Of the danger hero complained of
and justify in our people urgent de
mands for such change Of policy as will
avert such calamities as they have sur.
fered. The Bannock war aba,ed from
i'll success, exhaustion and the approach
of winter. There has been no new
treaty, no truce, no declaration of peace,
no punishment, no restitution. The
savages arc quiet to day, safely enjoy

FRIEND L.:-Yours of the 18th inst.
came to hand by last p. NJ. accompanied
by copy Of constitution of soon to be
State Of Washington. Many thanks.
We are having warm times here at the
State house this session OF the Legis-
lature. There has never been for years
such set Of narrow gagged men gotten
together in body to represent the peo.
pie of Massachusetts in her general
court as the prese sitting senators aud
members of the House. Every one
expected cut down, but no one
thought tle knife would be driven to
the hilt and turned round as it has
been. 1t has stirred up a feeling which
will make itself manifest next Autumn.
Ben Butler scared the Republican
party Of Massach usetts almost to death.
At the rate they are going on he will
finish it easily the next election, and
the thick headed, blue blooded money
bags at the head of the Republican
machine cannot foresee the folly of the
course they are pursuing. Ex-Gov.

Massachusetts ever had, or ever will
have, who reduced the State debt by
millions annually while 10 office, three
years and never made any blowing

stamp don't hesitate to say the Repub-
lican party in Massachusetts is panic
stricken without > cause, and is surely
cutting its own throat and strengthen
ing the cnemy's herds every day they
pursue their present course. They
have cut the compensation of the ser.
geant.at-arms, clerks of The two houses,
secretary and auditor of the State and
Of all the small fry officers down to

forty per cent, while the real extrava.

! FRIEND LELAND:-In the lower

last Tuesday, at the morning session, on
the one hundred and third balloting.
Mr.. Birdseye. Of Lemhi county, was
chosen permanent speaker. Then the
agony was over, and we proceeded to
perfect tho organization by electing

Judge Clark administered the oath, and
a vote of thanks was rendered to him
for the service. A committee of three
was appointed to wait upon Gov. Bray

legislative assembly was duly organized
and ready to receive whatever ne had
to communicate to them. His message
by the way, appeared in the Audlanche

passed ready for approval. One to

IT is VERY customary for people 10
say that had the vote in 1876 been gwen
to Tilden that was given to Hayes, Til
den could by no possibility have been
made President. That the masses that
backed Hayes would never have allowed
such a result. And this is frequently
thrown in the teeth of Democrats by
Republicans. They have said: "When
you elected your man you feared to in.
augurate him. Grant stood in The
way; and your leaders dared not con
front his drawn sword" Alas, it is true
And our regret is that such Republicans
do not appreciate the patriotism there
was in that submission-in that givins
away Of triumph with all the emolu
ments of Office, to preserve the peace
and secure the prosperity of all the peo
pie. There was more honor anC
righteousness in that submission than il
the possession of the Presidency. Never
was the sentiment so fittingly illustrated

The laws In Maine were made BY the

they were 30 manipulated as to forever

GEN. GRANT seems to have arrived
at the conclusion that some of his Phila-
delphia friends were disposed to give him
little too much diversion. Hence his
remark yesterday as quoted below:
sis II necessary that 1 shou I'd remain at
Independence Hall for three hours?"
"Oh; no; not unless you desire It," spoke
Mr.. Childs.
General, we do not" said the Mayor.
'expect you to tire yourself at anything /;
when you desire to leave the Hall. you
can do so'
There is only one more question that
desire to ask you" said Grant, as he was
putting on his ovrecoat. being assisted by
member of the committee. "and that Is,
must stay and see the PinaJore perform
ance through ?"
ibid you ever see Pinqfore, General ?"
asked General Hancock, ami the latter,
before he gave Grant time to reply, con-
tinued by remarking, Nv hat, neverw
Grant laughed, and turning TO Mr.
Childs, said, "Gentlemen, wish / had
the man by the back oil the neck who
suggested that / should see PinaIete.
Weil-he ought to be hanged"
Mayor Stokley, but the Mayor would moi
confess the crime. The party broke up
with laugh.
Whether it was polite in the recant
or not we will not discuss. But certain
ly any gentleman OF intelligence nigh
arrive at the conclusion that it was ask
ing rather too much of man of Grant,
age who had seen 30 much of the world
to spend a whole afternoon witnessing
so light and trifing production a
Pinafore. No doubt Grant was deepl,
wounded at the display they were max
ing of him-no doubt he began to fee
that he was being used as big advel
tisement, and perhaps he took the onl
way that he could to show his dissent
1t is quite cute in those present to get th
photographer to make up a joke of tn
matter. But they may tell that to th
marines. If Gen. Grant actually calle
the play "Pinafote," the people coul
more easily overlook his slip of Il
tongue, and attribute it to want of a
tention to theatricals, than to pardon Il
want of taste in selecting such a pie,
and conducting an ex-General and {
ex-President to playhouse to witne
its performance.
