1t is pretty well known, we believe,
that we are not an adrnirer Of General
Howard, more especially his plan Of ex.
terminating savages, as practiccd in bis
campaigns Of the past two years. We
don't carry our opposition to the gen.
eral SO far, however, as to preclude
giving his friends hearing in these
columns whenever anything just or
meritorious can be said on the subject.
lnthat spirit we give place 10 some
sensible observations embodied in let
ter to us, aud not intended for publica.
ton. The writer says
"One thing must be said in the ex.
tenuation of General Howard's conduct
of two campaigns in connection with the
evils of divided authority in the cont
troll Of Indian affairs. Tho fact tina.
the sentimentalists of the Indian bureau
are authorized by both law and custom
to dictate to the war department the

rather the object to be accomplished 10

General Howard had determined, after
his experience of two campaigns, to
accept a more common sense pn'icy with
the Umatllas and Indians 10 the vicin

rested chiefs and demanded murderers
and his conduct met with severe rebuke

SCOUNDRELISM AT EMERALD BAY.

of scoundreism that was perpetrated at EN-

Sailor Jack, of Emerald Bay, whom every
| body knows that has ever visited the shores
of Lake Tahoe, had occasion to 90 to Tahoe
City, and on his way back he stopped at Me
kinney's. While tarrying there he saw a large
Canadian Frenchman, who formerly worked
fort Capt. Pray at Glenorook, with his clothes on
He questioned the fellow as to how he became
possessed of his (Jack's) clothes, and the
Frenchman stated that he was at Emerald
Bay the day before, and while there he OBJ
served the villa burning, and he rushed into
the house, but the only things he was enabled
to save were the clothes he then wore. Sailor
Jack suspected foul play and bounced upon
the Frenchman, whom he soon tied hand and
foot. Leaving him securely tied at McKn-
ney s, Jack rowed over to Emerald Bay where
he found the villa, its contents and all the
boats destroyed by fire. Everything showed |
the act of an inceHdiary. Jack then returned |
to Mckinney's and carried his prisoner to |
Justice of the Peace Swain, who held him to
appear before the Grand Jury of Ell Dorado
County. If Sailor Jack had had his wav
about it, the scoundrel would never have gone
to trial There is no other reason assigned
Tor the act of burning that property than
