The great newspapers of the east,
owned and controlled by railroad-wreck-
ers and money sharks, sneer. leer and
moke merry over the Ignorance" Of
the C~oloradoans and frontiersmen who
are excited OF the Indian massacres
Because men engaged in rough manual
labor in the mountains and on the wild
frontiers Of civilization, 1t does not nee
essarily follow that they are ignorant.
They have generally received a first
class education In that greatest of all
schools, the world That much cannot
be truthfullye said of those who SO
harshly criticize them. The humble
Nanrene, who was a carpenter, was
thrust aside as an ignorant fellow by
just such men. We remember that he
was once a witness before some LAWYERS
who considered him very unorthodox,
but be told them some truths that have
since been ringing down the ages. He
met with very poor success in his day,
but he told the people the solid gospel
truth. tSr
The Indian is lazy and thriftless and
viii not work. But we insist that he shall
not prevent white men from working,
developing the OF the state,
and hewing and digging out u fortune
for themselves and posterity. The
progress of the American people must
not be checked and stayed by a handful
of murderous savages. White men
must work, in the mountains, In the
mines and in the valleys of this coun-
try, and if the Indian sets up his toma-
hawk and scalping knife against 1t,
Indian and tomahawk and bloody scalp
ing knife must be obliterated. White
men and women must he fed and cloth
ed and housed. Sometimes we add to
these conditions the inalienable right
to the pursuit of happlness;b unless a
man can earn enough to supply those
three cardinal necessities, misery and
unhappines will surely overtake him.
He knows this and pushes out to our
mountains and perils his health and
lifsin the attempt to better his condi-
ton and that Of his family. Because
he has done this, the naughty whipper-
snappers ofthe eastern press sneer at
him and denounce him as Ignorant
He is deserving Of ten times more re-
spect and sympathy than the millions
who remain in the crowded east, anx-
ious for work but unable to obtain it;
suffering for the common ne-cessaries of
life, in the midst of abundance; stand
ing idle, in a world full Of resources
waiting for the hand of labor to draw
them out; unhappy aud miserable, In a
land called the abode of happiness and
plenty.
No; Coloradoans are not ignorant.
In this Ute difficulty they see a STUN
biing-block and barrier to their pro-
gress in civilization and all that makes
lie desirable, and they demand their
removal -Dneer Repablican.

4 NEW lining LAW.

We publish below II copy Of a mining
act which Judge Bedford has prepared
and which he expects to- offer at an
early day after the meeting Of congress.
Under the act OF 1872 no valid loca-
ton be made untn after the discovery
Of the the vein " lode withirg the
limits of the claim located.
By this act it is provided that a party
in search of miner al deposits may make
a valid location without first striking
mineral; that he shall have ninety
days after making his location to ex-
pose the mineral, and that during that
time his possession shall be valid
against all intruders. To avoid the
possibility Of one party taking up an
entire mountain he allows him to take
up but one claim. He makes the
claim six hundred feet wide and does
not allow the party to follow the min
eral beyond the exterior lines Of the
claim.
We publish this bill TO afford the
miners and lawyers an opportunity to
criticize 1t, IL they find anything objec-
| tionable I'm IL or To suouests amend
ments.

GEORGE PECK, of the Milwaukee Sun,
has originated theory for the extir-
patton of the shot gun policy So prevail
ent in some of the southern states, as
fellows: THAT the Indians on the
plains be colonized in the South, in
South Carolina, Louisiana and Missis-
sippl. Give them the right to vote,
issue Winchester rifles to them, and
have an election about every ten days.
Make Sitting Bull and Red Dog and
Moses the bosses, and fence in those
States, ard see how long it would be
before the Southern shot gun chivalry
would be crawling over the fence, and
begging the government to call off its
dog The Indian is the only thing to
settle the shot gun policy of the
South" In great emergencies Peck
generally has recourse TO the mule, but
in this matter he gives Indians the
preference.

CONGRESS met in extra session on the
18th of March ostensibly for the pur-
pose of passing the appropriation bills
which had been previously prepared.
Two or three days was ample time
within which to have effected an or
ganlzation and dene this work, but
five weeks have elapsed and nothing
has been accomplished. Both branch
es of Congress are Democratic and that
party had the power to at once pass
these bills and adjourn, and from
Democratic promises of reform when
they should be given power to work
reformation, the people had a right to
expect that they would make quick
work of these bills and adjourn, thus
doing away with continued heavy ex-
penses incident to Congressional ses-
sion and relieving the country from
the constant anxiety with which it re-
CARDS Congress while in session. 1t
appears that Democratic promises of
reform were made only to be broken
and have proven wholly unreliable.

THE Stevens Point Pinery Says:
ssThere have been no rains-the little
snow that fell during the winter has
disappeared; and left the swamps en-
tirely dry; no water in the small
streams to bring out the logs, and less
in the Wisconsin to run out RATS. An
stead of water, there is fearful APP
prehension of fires in the woods.

Some unregenerate newspaper writer
has suggested that Tilden is to con-
tribute to the Republican campaign
fund of Ohio and otherwise aid that
party in the Buckeye State in 1879, as
the most effectual means of getting
Thurman out of the way in 1880. Let
the 1ilden Democrats in Ohio vote the
Republican ticket next fall and Thur
man VIII be laid by without any con-
tribution to the Republican campaign
fund from Tilden.

So great was the demand for four
per cent. bonds when Secretary Sher-
man three weeks ago completed the
refunding of the fve-twenties that he
at once called two hundred millions of
the ten-ferties and the entire sum has
already been replaced by the four per
cents. As no bonds now outstanding
are subject to call until 1881 the four
per cents have necessarily been with
drawn from market by the Secretary
of the Treasury, and Notwithstanding
the low rate of interest which they
bear they already command a premi-
um of two and one-half per cent. in
the London money market, and the
Republican party Las, by its steadfast
adherence to the principles of honor
in dealing with the creditors of the
nation, placed the credit of the United
States in position second to that of
no other government now in existence,
in spite of the determined efforts of
Greenbackers and Democrats to plunge
the financial affairs OF the country in
to utter and irretrievable ruin. This
fact is well worthy the careful and
candid consideration of the people,
whose interests are best subserved by
stability in government finances.

BLACKBURN, of Kentcuky, who is a
fair representative of the senti-
ment of the ex-Confederate element
of the South, in speech upon the
floor Of the House of Representatives
recently made use of the following
significant language: ''We do not in
tend to stop until ne hare stricken the
last vestige Of your a0ar measures from
the statute book" While we have no
desire to faunt the 'bloody shirt, So
called, it seems proper to quote the
above expression from the lips of a
man who was the choice of the South
ern Democratic members Of the House
| of Representa- yes for Speaker and
| therefore an exponent of their ideas
and purposes, for the deliberate con-
sideration of our readers. Those
words are very expressive and imply a
great deal; ponder them well.

RIVER FALLS WISCONSIN, THURSDAY. April, "a. 1879.

| The mania for emigration does not
seem to be confined to foreigners seek
ing homes in the New World and the
blacks who are fleeing from the South
to escape from the oppression which
they suffer there. Many others are
changing their habitations from one
locality to another in the hope of bet
tering their condition, and Pierce
county see.ns to have possessed a very
liberal percentage of those whose rest
i've desire for a change as we'll as the
expectation of more rapidly acquiring
wealth elsewhere has prompted them
to seek new homes. While a few of
those who have emigrated from with
in our borders can we'll be spared
there are many others, good citizens,
whom we regret to see leaving the
county, and we counsel those who are
reasonably we'll situated here to weigh
carefully all considerations against a
change as well as those for. The
climate, soil, timber, water, natural.
social and educational advantages of
this county, taken as a whole. are not
surpassed by those of any other State
or Territory. The climate here is
salubrious and healty; the soil deep
and fertile; timber excellent; water
pure and water-power great and well
distributed; society as good as can be
found any where; churches numerous;
while our common schools are far in
advance of those in many Of the older
States. Crops are never an utter fail
ure here, and the ravages of the fes-
tive grasshopper, drouths, floods, de-
structive hurricanes and other draw
backs of like nature so charac-
teristic of other localities which sweep
everything before them are unknown
here. These questions should ali be
considered and one should ponder
them well before mourning the newt
able risks incident to a change of loca-
ton. In short, the adage ''let well
enough alone" as rule may be adj
vantageously considered.

WHILE it is all we'll enough for Re-
publicans to regret the fact that there
are so many rebel Brigadiers in our
National Congress in which there is a
conspicuously small number of Union
soldiers they should bear in mind that
the ex-Confederates are not response
bic for this state of affairs, as applied
to the Union Generals, as the election
of Republican members of that body
is generally the work of Republicans.
and if civilians or politicians instead
of Union soldiers are chosen it is no
part of the work of the Confederate
BrIgadiers or their constituents. Wis
consin has two Union Generals in the
House of Representatives-Bragg and
Bouck-but by their votes they could
not be distinguished from the most
ultra of rebels, and the fewer of that
class of Union Generals in Congress
the better it is for the country.
