Indians.
Look out for the "scalp litter"
The soldiers left Saturday for Fort
Cummings.
Il seems that the Indians scare il
some what abated.
Our friend, T. T. ChildeIs, was
in town Monday.
Friday there was trial in the
justices court.
The mountains all look smoky
from Indian fites.
The Indian signals could lie
seen from Hillsborough Wednesday
night.
The citizen Of Kingston we learn
on last Wednesday night could see
the government pets" plainly with
spy glass. There seem to be quite
number of them.
From what Wa could learn from
the soldiers who came in Friday
from Hermosa and Fairview, where
they had been scouting around,
they stated that two person had
only been killed.
Six men on the jury Friday, was
composed of three Mexicans and
three Americans. After hearing
the evidence they were locked up
when it was discovered that they
could not understand one another
without an Interpreter.
The citizens held meeting this
week for the purpose of organizing a
company to protect the town and
vicinity from the Indian raids. They
were determined TO give them warm
reception of dose of cold lead.
All the men who have been at
work on the Hermosa road, came to
town in hurry, when the alarm was
given that the Indians were on the
war path. The toys say they had
no extra scalps on hsno that they |
had no use for.

Items From The Placeirs.

There sre about fifty men at wori
in the Placeirs.
Water is at present getting scarce
row, near the mines, but enough il
found to pan with.
J NJ. Brooks, of the Placeir store,
recently dug a we'll on his premises,
ano has succeeded in securing an
abundance of good water.
On last Monday night the settle.
ment was aroused by the report that
he Anache were near at hand. cour-
iers were sent out in all directions
warning the parties Of the danger
There is lamentable scarcity OF

Percha. District, May 27.
Friend Farley The Indians have
raised the thunder up here. They
had fight in mile of here yester-
day and have broken up in small
bands and are hiding in the bushes
on she creeks and in the hills. The
miners have all congregatcd and are
staying together A lot of miners
are going into Kingston this morn.

Monday morning, while we were
busy at work, were surprised to see
our old friend, T. T. Childers, who
had been reported as being "good
Indian" came to our Office, looking
as natural as ever. We congratu-
lated him on being raised from the
dead, and not meeting with old
Geronimo, the "sclap taksr." He
still lives and breathes the pure
mountain cir of Sierra county.
While our Representative was at
Kingston during the Indian raid,
he asked party to subscribed for
his county paper. He said the rea-
son he did not take the paper was
because it was printed at Hillsboro.
When it was expected every mo-
ment the Indians would attacked
the town. and perhaps killed some
one of your family, YOU could come
toward and ask the citizens of Hills
boro to come to your assistance in
time of danger. We would say to
the gentleman; don't loves us in
time of danger it you have no
friendship in time of peace. 1t
looks too much like the monkey
who took the cats paws to rake the
nuts out of the fire.
The congratulatory kilograms
sent by G. H. Gildersleeve from
Albuquerque to Vincent Ia Scot
land, cost him $40 But Tom Cat
ron will give HIM moro money
when he wants it.

OF the Administration-cleyeland Will
Hew to the Democratic Line.
LOUISVILLE, KY, April S.-The Louis
vile Courier Journal has the follow
Ing from Washington: The question
tonight is: What will the President do
now that the Senate hos adjourned? Some
say that he is displeased oyer the action
OttAe Republican Senator's Yesterday, and
will show his displeasure by applying the
Democratic knife to the nccks Of q num-
Der Of Republican otlicerholdets. He
holds that BIZ paid of his obligation to the
Independent Republicans by appointing
Pearson, and that hereafter lie proposes to
hew close TO the Democratic line. The
authority orthis statement comes straight
from . high Treasury official. Others say
that the President is not the least annoyed
blythe action Of the Senate, but proposes
to continue the policy he instituted, I'D.
herring closely to civil service reform and
conducting the afairs Of the government
upon strict business principles.
Another important question Is under
going discussion tonight. The President
this evening asked prominent member
Of Congress his views upon the tenure OF
office act. Ttappeass that the act, which
waspasSed in.lS69, forthep purpose of giving
President Grant the power to remove all
theappointmentsof of ex.P President J Johnson,
Is somewhat confused and indefinite, and
not strictly in accord with the Constitu-
ton, which gives the President undisputed
aud absolute power to remove any civil
officer In the Government.
Under this law. RG constructed by the
Republican Senate, the President is strip.
ped o. some Of the rights guaranteed him
by the Constitution. For instance, be
can not make removal during the ses-
sion Of the Senate, without the advice and
consent ot hesenate. II he sends In the
name Of John Jones for an Office and the
Senate refuses TO confirm the said Jones.
The President must send in the name OF
some other man. in tho meantime the
occupant OF the office holds bis place and
enjoys the emoiuments Of the same.
Now, In the case Of the nominations not
Seted upon the President will be
compelled to suspend the present occu.
pants Of the place 10 allow his appointees
ttogst in, until the next session OF tho
Senate. They must be suspended for
cause and he must state the cause OF re-
moval to the Senate when it meets. This.
oticoure, applies TO removals only. There
no trouble about filling vacancies.
The President will ask Attorney Cen
gal Garland for an opinion in the matter
above related. 1t is not settled question
whether he is compelled toshow cauae for
removal or not.
