Congress, and Bisbee should, as a
matter of pure justice, be in his
place.
Il must not be supposed that We
expected anything else. The South-
ern uureconstructed editor-who,
by the way, we venture to assert,
never smelled gunpOwder in the
late, or any other war-Was exactly
right when he exclaimed, 8" Yes,
thank God, we have captured the
Capitol" The seat of government
is undoubtedly in the hands of the
same men who a few years since,
with muskets in their hands, were
attempting to capture it.
1t must be expected that when
ever a Republican is by any one, no
matter how depraved a scoundrel
he may be, IN any way maligned
and a seeming cloud thrown over his
title, that he will be expelled from
his seat among the Representatives
of the people or to speak more ae,
curately, the Representatives, of the
Rebel States, for they control the
Legislation of the country. In this
there is one consolation, however.
In 1880 the people will have had
enough of them, and cry "out with

This will pay the interest on the
State debt, current expenses, and
leave handsome sum besides. And
with rigid economy, such as has
already been inaugurated by the
Legislature, the current expenses
will fall below what we have given
above. All .this can be done with a
forty cents tax, which is lower than
is paid by majority of the States
in the Union. The rate in Viz
ginia last year was fifty cents; in
Mississippi, sixty-fye cents in
Alabama, seventy cents lin Florida,
ninety cents; in Arkansas 81, and
in Louisiana one dollar and twenty
five cents. We love to boast Of our
great natural resources, and GERS
tainly we. can afford to pay a tax as
high as our sister States. To place
the matter beyond any doubt, the
rate of taxation might be fixed at
fifty cents, as in Virginia, but we
insist that forty cents, faithfully
collected and applied, will be sufi-
cient. The talk about inability to.
pay is all bosh. ss

The plea Of inability Oh the part
of Tennessee to pay her just obi
cations may ease the conscience of
that class of persons whose brain
capacity is 50 weak that they are
not accountable for their acts, but
none others. According to the
recent report Of Comptroller Gaines
the assessed value Of taxable prop
erty for the year 1878 was little
more than 100000. Our in
debtedness, in round numbers,
amounts to S24,0O0,OO0 We can
compromise this at sixty cents on
the dollar which would be $14, AGO.
900. We might be able to compro-
mise it at fifty cents-We believe we
could-but for present purposes We
will consider the highest, the sixty
per cent. proposition. The bond
holders have also modified their
original. proposition so as to pro-
vide for four instead Of six per
cent. interest. Then the annual
interest on $14,40O,O00 at four
per cent. would be $4,000. The
current expenses of the State for
the year 1878, including interest
on school fund, was in round mum
bers $729,0O0 The amount neces-
sary to he raised then would be
S1,314,000. We say it can be
raised with tax not exceeding
forty cents, as follows :

PoRTRATr.-Th Graphic Of September
18th, gives US a portrait OF Judge j. Z.
Sharpstein, the brother of Hon B. L. Sharp
stein OF this place, and says:
Judge Sharpstein was chosen at tie recent
election in California as one of the associate
judges Of that state, and was born May >, 1928
in Ontario county, " y. At the age of twelve
years his parents removed to Michigan, where
he received his education, studied law, and
was admitted to the bar in the early part of the
year 1871. Immediately thereafter he Went to
Wisconsin, and while there held various public
offices. At one time he was United States
district attorney, and prior thereto he was a
member of both branches of the legislature.
In the spring of 1864 he went to California,
where he has since resided and practiced law.
For two Years he was judge of the Twelfth
district court of San Francisco. Last year he
was a candidate for delegate to the constitu-
tlonal convention, and received majority of
the entire vote cast in the city, althoug gh there
were four tickets in the field. He il now iden-
titied with the Workinsmens party, and was
se"Ir nominee for associate judge of the s1-
preme courL, - also the nominee Of tie demo-
cratic party to which office be has been elected.
He Is intellectual AMI popular, is literal
minded and generous hearted, a man Of large
benevolence, much ability and personal attrec-
tion."

STEPHEN PHAKAoM is dead. Stephen
was chief of the Montauk Indians at
Long Island, and is said to have been the
only one of the tribe that had pure blood
in his veins. If we had an onion We
could weep for Stephen. bnt still it is
better that he is gone. We wish all the
pure -blooded ones would follow Stephen
for then there might be more hope of a
solution of the Indian question. 1t is
such fellows as this per-colored man
with the Egyptian surname that make
trouble and keep the Indian lands from
passing into the possession Of the repub-
lican party.

wants the $780, 600 that will be appropriated
for the Improvement of Snake river to be ap-
piled to the deepening of the "harbor" of
Portland As Portland is not likely to ever

test against such wholesale, downright
robbery. The improvement of Snake river
will he benefit to the constantly increasing
thousands Of this country, and must no long

The wholesale selfshness displayed by the
writer OF the article is on par with the con-
duct of the citizens of Portland generally
towards us up here. They grasp all they

MARK LANE REroET. "A London dispatch
dated Oct 9TH says: The Mark Lane Er-
press says that bad weather has continued
with hut brief intervals OF sunshine. In the
middle counties, the rainfall has been exces-
sive and harvesting carried on in very de-
sultory manner. Much of the corn in other
parts OF the kingdom remains unstacked.
The greater part Of the wheat and barley re-.
Gently cut is in such damp state that sprout-
ing or heating in the stack vii, inevitably
ensue. The cutting and carrying proceed
very slow in the north, and the want of dry
weather is much felt.

For WAsHINGToN.-Our delegate, accom-
panied by Mrs. Brents, will leave their home
for Washington on Sunday next. We hope
ere his return Mr. Brents will he ahle to give
a good account of himself. There is bill
before congress that asks for compensation
to the citizens who took part in the last two
Indian wars. They did the work and saved
the expense of soldiers, and We are sure if
the delegates made a persistent effort they
could easily accomplish such trifilng thing
Excuses OF being unable to accomplish any
thing arc too common amongst our delegates,
and We have all had more than enough of
them. 1t is poor sign.

THE BLOODY SHIRT YAwP-" Hatred of
the south, abuse of the south, and falsehoods
about the south, says the World, make up
the warp and woof Of republican speeches,
platforms and editorials these days. They
could not be more violent if the federal gov
ernment medtated or had actually declared
war of determination against the white
people in that section OF 'OUr common coun-
try" Every misdeed or outrage" con-
tinues the World, (which occurs in the
southern states no matter what its nature
may be, every act of murder or arson or
burglary or counterfeiting or mail robbery,
every illicit distillation of whisky and every
illicit declaration of love, every evasion of
the custom laws, every forgery, every case
of cruelty to men OF animals. every bank
ruptcy, every display of shotgun is caught
up labelled as a specimen of tine true nature
of the solid south, and trumpeted through
ou. the length and breadth of the land as a
crime against the nation and as against the
beginning of hellish contrivance to trans
form the Union into a 'leaguen Because
the negroes are illiterate and poor and pay
no taxes the south is denounced. Because
the whites own land and want rent for it
women in New York who have baDishcd the
negro from their own households as being
neither so honest nor so pretty to look at as
white servants, jnin in the hue and cry
against the south. because in that part of the
conntry the African has not yet succeeded
in changing the skin which they themselves
impute to him as scandal when he comes
IN their way at the north. The legislatures
of powerful northern states literally vie with
one onother in enactiug arbitrary and re-
pressive laws against tramps. The north
ern press applauds the northern farmer who
arms himself and his family and makes his
own laws against the idle warrants OF the
north. But the north will tolerate no at
tempt of self-protection by the southern
planters and his Nhite family against the
African tramp who infests southern high
ways and terriiieS southern homes. The
theories of government and of individual
conduct prescribed by northern stalwarts for
southern application would practically place
everybody who is industrious and well be-
haved at the south at the mercy of every
body who is idle and vicious"

Tuv TRY orrapy.K-Another unneces-

THE UTE OUTBREAK unneces-
sary crime has been committed by the interior
depa.tment, and the blood of citizens and
soldiers again cry to heaven TOR vengeance
against the sentimentalists there who hold
that the Indian can do no wrong. NO soon
er are blunders rectitied by military aid in
one portion of the United States than they
are again called upon to repeat their humane
performance in another Why this apPar-
emily blood-thirsty incubus Of the interior
department should be so long allowed to
suck the life blood from the heart OF the
frontier is one of those problems that Is only
to be accounted for by radical nlisrule, con-
sequent on the loss of political influence that
party would lose if they rendered their as
sistance in transferring the control OF the In
dians from they who now hold it to the mill
tary. For years they have fattened upon
the appropriations allowed by congress- for
the Indians support. Treaties have been
made for no other purpose, apparently, than
to s.get the bulge" OH the red man that
accomplished, they hold HIM to lis bargain.
and treat his prayers for proper treatment
with a high handed contempt and Indiffer-
ence. Weeks previous to the recent terri
bic outbreak in Colorado, Gen. Sheridan was
ordered to place these Indians on or near the
Navajo reservation, at the Junction OF Col
orado with the territories of Utah, Arizona
and New Mexico. He answered back that
if a war was wanted he would comply with
the command, and reminded the department
that it would entail war with nation OF
-, 900 souls. This, allowing the average of
one warrior to seven persons, would place
nearly 5000 fighting men on the war path.
His advice was of course unheeded, and IN
consequence the country has been Mortified
with the usual terrible details of Indian
atrocities As is always the case, Secretary
Schurtz has been busy telegraphing and lay
ing the blame everywhere except to where
it rightly belongs, i. e., on his own shoul-
ders. Already we know of 100 lives being
sacrificed, and the probabilities are that
hundreds more of our own race will be offered
up as sacrifice before righteous indigna-
ton will compel the transfer Of the manage
ment of Indians to that arm of the service to
which it belongs by all the rights of human
ity. But the bloodsuckers have such hold
on the appropr ations that We doubt if any
thing So desirable will happen in our time
