IF the newspapers of Texas will
agree never to print another account OF
a bloody deed, public taste will be i'm
proved and public morals and the fame
of the State will be infinitely less hor-
rible. Let courts and juries do their
duty and the press, IS a vehicle OF
bloody sensationalism, be silenced and
popular predictions for the horrible
and revolving in literature and popular
habits and youthful tastes will be
speedily corrected.

SUPPOSE they make Wash Jones
Speaker. The Greenbsckers clam the

as suggested, and bastrop be thus
honored in the House at Washington
as in the Senate at Austin, the Green

to death and Democracy will be be-
deviled with it no more forever.

elections affecting them, and further,

troubles eliminate in fight which
results in bloodshed and death.
1t does seem as if this ought to
be avoided. 1t may not be possible
always, but generally. we believe it
might, and when the ministers from
their pulpits pray for the blessings
of God upon our country, they
ought to at the same time, pray that
the hearts of the people may be
inclined to wisdom, humanity and
the cardinal principles of Chris
tianity, and that such principles
should pravail in the administration
Of our Indian affairs.

THE "HEATHEN CHS EE%

The Senate was engaged yester-
day in discussing the momentous
Chinese question. Some people
have a mortal fear that this country
is to be overrun with heather Chi
nese, and that their cheap labor is
to ruin cur working classes. Not
outstanding the statistics show that
more Chinese left this country last
year than came, the whole American
nation is frightened at John China
man, and Congress us appealed to
to protect US.
We may be obtusc, but all this
looks to US like "much ado about
nothing" We have boosted for years
and years past that Free America fur
nished an asylum for the oppressed
of every nation and now because
few thousand Cinnamon have
come, we are in great alarm. Those
who oppose such immigration say
that the Chinaman is a sneak thief
and the women prostitutes, and that
his presence here will corrupt our
morals. This may be true, but we
have a way in this country of pun
ishing sneak thieves sometimes, and
our laws will protect us against
Chinese thieves as well as other
thieves. We confess that we do not
''hanker" after Chinese immigration
bit. They are not the character
of immigrants We want, but there
are immigrants from other countries
that are not valuable, and unless
we shut our doors against all immi-
grafton, we see no sound reason for
so much ado about John Chinaman.

TO FRIENDS OF IMMIGRATION

The efforts of the CHRONICLE in
behalf of immigration began years
ago, and have been kept up with
out intermission. The result is, we
have always had large number OF
subscribers in the Northern States.
Our paper is read in every State
north of the Ohio river, and we re-
ceiye very frequently letters from
persons in the North, making in
quiries as to the price of land, the
character of the soil, school and
church facilities, &C., in particular
localities. 1t is impossible for US to
answer all these letters in any sat-
isfactory manner, and we ask the
friends of immigration to help US in
this matter. We would be glad to
receive the names of persons in
every county in the State, relia-
bic, intelligent men, who would
be willing to correspond with per-
sons in other sections who desire to
immigrate to our State. We will
publish these names in our DAILY
and WEEKLY paper, in order that
our readers elsewhere may be af-
forded facilities for obtaining such
information as they desire. We
would like to get these names at as
early day as possible, and call
upon our friends and the friends Of
immigration to assist Us. Do not
wait for your neighbor to send
names, but send right along, the
names of such gentlemen in your
county as will be willing to enter
into the character of correspond
ence mentioned.

OUR RELATIONS TO THE IN
DIANS.

To day, as on every other Sab
bath, the prayer goes up from q
hundred thousand pulpits in the
United States, "God bless oul
country" We do not speak Of
this to find fault, because the peo>
pie of this country have a great
many reasons to be thankful for
natures choicest blessings. But
we have good reason to believe that
prayers for blessings of temporal
character will be answered? In
our treatment of the Indians, do
we manifest always, a spirit con,
sistent with that of religion OF
Christianity? We appreciate fully
all the difficulties which environ the
Indian question. We know and re-
eognize the peculiar obstacles in the
way of their proper government.
They are our troublesome wards,
and their wild, savage nature rem
der8 the task of providing for them
as humanity demands, and govern
ing them and restraining them, a
task at once delicate and arduous, re-
curing the exercise Of caution and
forbearance. The recent massacre
of Cheyennes near Fort Robinson
was a wretched piece of business,
which, under our system, was una
voidable. 1t became necessary to
remove them to their reservation.
They we're unwilling to go, and
force had to be used. This was I'M
dertaken in the dead of winter,
when they were poorly provided
with blankets and food. They look
ed upon it as a restraint upon their
freedom, which would be almost
certain death. They refused to go
and were arrested and confined in
the barracks-men, women and
children. They stubbornly, and
with fortitude common to the In
dian character, refused food and
vowed that they would die. They
managed to make their escape and
were pursued. They resisted with
savage ferocity, and a large num-
Der, including both sexes, we're
killed.
The soldiers were not to blame.
They did what they were ordered to.
In fact we do not lay the blame
with the army or with the Depart
ment of the Interior. 1t is more
the result of an erroneous policy
than the fault of any individual or
department of the government. A
remedy has been sought by humane
men and women in every section of
the country, but nothing adequate
seems to have been suggested.
The Indians continue to be the
victims of swindling agents and
unprincipled adventures,
They have suffered outrage after
outrage, often of the most atrocious
character, and the perpetrators too
often escape UNPUBLISHED. The ig-
norant red man, makes up his esti-
mate of the "pale face" from the
specimens he sees around him, not
knowing that large number of
those with whom he comes in con-
tact are the escaped muir
derers, thieves, burglars and
libertines who have fed
from the States to escape
the punishment their crimes deserve.
IF one eff these vile outlaws kills an
Indian, or robs him, or violates the
person of his wife or daughter or
commits some other Villainous out
rage and the Indian retaliates, it is
heralded over the country through
the newspapers as a fresh outbreak,
and a whole tribe is held response
BILE. They are goaded into desper-
alton, put on their war paint, and

THE
KNOXVILLE CHRONICLE FOR 1879.
Subscrfb Tor q Good, Reliable News
paper.

0uDScTfO l0r g G000, R91aDI6 NEWS
paper.
IL DAILY CHRONICLE, and
WEEKLY WING AND CHRONICLE,
will be kept up during the year
1879 to their usual high standard.
BY enterprise, accurateness, and
close attention to the wants OF our
readers, we hope to merit contln-
uation of the liberal patronage
heretofore extended these journals.
Nearly nine years ago, when
there was not Republican daily in
the State, and only two or three in
the South, we commenced the pub
LEGATION of the CHRONICLE. In all
these years we have battled for Re
publican principles, and see no
reason to change our course now.
Hence we shall continue to publish
a truthful, reliable Republican
journal, not the organ of any man
or clique, but the outspoken and
fearless advocate of principles,
measures and men, best calculated
to promote the welfare of the
country and the Republican party.
We will endeavor to make our
agricultural columns worth more to
farmers than our subscription price.
AS a newspaper our publications
shall not be excelled in the State.
In addition to our Geographic dis
patches from all parts of the world,
our readers shall have the benefit of
correspondence and every other
means through which reliable infor~
nation is obtained,
Each number of the paper will
contain selections made with special
reference to the home circle. We
will continue to avoid everything
calculated to contaminate, and will
publish paper that may be taken
without question within the sacred
precints of the family circle.
Our market reports shall have
close attention, and be made entire
ly correct and reliable.
We call upon all persons inter
ested in the publication of our in
dependent, fearless, reliable Repub-
lican journal to come to our aid and
assist in extending the circulation
Of the DAILY CHRONICLE and
WEEKLY WIG AND CHRONICLE.
In view of the financial pressure
upon the country and the general
reduction of values, we have decided
to reduce the price of the WEEKLQ
WING AND CHRONICLE to suit the
times. In the future we will send
our weekly paper to subscribers on
the following.
