STANFORD, Dec. Is, 1867.
EiiiOr Interior Journal
A number of excellent gentlemen have
been suggested to represent Lincoln in the
next Legislature, and it is an encouraging
sign Of the times that so much interest in
this important matter il being developed
among the people. Why not send Judge
w. o. Hansford backl He would doubt
less be willing to serve. The county has
no worthier son, nor has the democratic
party any more faithful or more efficient
member. Our interest and our reputation
were represented with signal fidelity and
ability by him in the last Legislature.
Scarcely any member Of that body stood
higher or deserved TO stand higher than he.
In addition to that fitness for the position
which caused his selection before, such as
his practical ssgacity, his safe and conserv-
alive temper and his accurate acquaintance
with the needs Of our people and with the
laws of the State, he ia still better and fur
ther qualified TO discharge this trust by rea-
son Of his former service and his familiar
knowledge Of the very important unfinished
legislation Of last session. He grew up with
that legislation, was indeed the originator
Of much Of il and is Of necessity better fit
ted than any new man could be to assist in
wise and proper disposition Of il. Be.
sides, il is time-hOnOred custom Of the
democratic party to pay faithful servant
the compliment Of an endorsement. and We
know Of no party servant who is better en-
titled to this sort Of recognition than Judge
Hansiord. At all events there is a very
considerable feeling to this effect in this vi
cinity. Respectfully. A pEMooRAT.

We observe that bill has been in
troduced to change the time Of hold
ing our courts in Lamoille County to
March and September. So far as ed
itors are concerned we believe they
seldom get together enough of this
worlds goods, so that if some one
should take the whole, the addamnuna
wouldn't be large enough to take it
out of the jurisdiction of justice of
the peace. We don't know of any
one whom we could SANDER 5000
worth, Sc we need not have much
anxiety about the time Of holding
County Court on our own account /;
but, speaking for the public, and more
especially for the bar, we think we
can say that the change is not one
which our Senator and Representative
need take especial pains to favor.
After a custom has prevailed so long
that our people become used to re-
garding April or May and December
as the best and most convenient time I,
il requires some argument to make
them understand why these changes
should be made.

Crooks Indian Policy.

SAN CARLOS, Arizona, Nov. s.
General Crook made an address, to-
day, to 1900 warriors. He told
them that the time had now come for
them to make their living and govern
themselves. In the future the troops
would not serve as a guard while the
Apaches were being robbed and OPP
pressed, but the Indians must them
selves, so far as possible. defend their
own rights. Permission would be
given them to select some lands on
the reservation for cultivation. The
chiefs would be assisted by enlisting
as soldiers some of their tribe. The
would not be employed except
in cases where the Apaches failed to
govern themselves. The Indians were
evidently greatly impressed.
