The NooHsAcK IEDIANs.-A Whatcom
wv. to correspondent of the Portland Ore
gonian says:
Several parties implicated in the at
tempted hanging of an Indian boy at
Nooksack crossing in Whatcom county.
are having hearing and are being bound
over for trial at the next term of the Dis
trlct Court by Justice of the Peace HYATT
The defendants claim that they took the
boy at night from his home into the woods
and placed the rope on his neck and over
the limb of a tree for the laudable purpose
OF extracting information concerning a
case of horse-stealing. An Indian from
the British side, who was believed had
murdered settler there, was lynched by a
crowd of white men in the same neiehbor-
hood about year ago. Naturally these
events have produced feeling of uneasi-
ness and soreness against certain class of
whites among the Indians of the neighbour
hood. These Indians at Nooksack have
been for over twenty years residing on their
own land, having renowned their tribal
relations. They have long had good we'll
attended school and church facilities of
their own, and by the old residents of the
county have general reputation of being
honest industrious and law-abiding.

1t has been stated a thousand times
that God is not recognized in the Con.
stitution of the United States. This
statement does injustice to the trainers
Of that instrument. In Article VII. are
the following words:
1.-The ratification Of the conventions
of nine States shall be sufficient for the
establishment of this Constitution be-
tween the States so ratifying the same"
And these are followed by the words
we shall next quote:
Done in convention by the unani-
nous consent of the States present the
18th day Of September, IN the year Of
Our Lord 1871, and of the indepen-
dence of the United States Of America
the twelfth. In witness whereof we
have hereunto subscribed our names. "
Then follows the name Of GEORGE
WASHINGTON, president of the con-
vention. The names Of the deputies
from all the States represented are
subscribed after his.
1t will be seen that the fathers went
so far as to recognize the Christian re-
ligion. The phrase Our Lord" can
have no other meaning. And the Chris
tan recognizes sour Lord as God.

A Growing Suspicion

The alleged conspiracy to defeat Sena-
tor SHERMAN of reelection to the
United States Senate has drawn from
the Philadelphia Erening Telegraph
Republican, this biting piece of irony {:
I" 1t is well known that Mr.. Sherman
only proposes to take another term in
the United States Senate to oblige the
truly good people of Ohio, and conse-
quently there is particular outrage
BUSINESS in the mere suggestion that GER
tain wicked Democrats have conceived
the idea of buying up enough alleged
Republicans to retire the Hon. John to
the shades Of private life and to send
some fellow to succeed him in the Sem
ate who will-from the very circum-
stances Of the case, as it were-inevita-
bly, be other than the truly good man
that the Hon. John Sherman happens
TO be-
But that is not the unkindest cut.
Our Philadelphia contemporary seems
10 think that the Republican party and
JOIN are well met. 1t continues
But the shockingness Of this story
is rot SO much owing to the revelation
which it makes Of conspiracy against
Mr.. Sherman as because Of the sugges-
ton which it embodies to the effect
that a canker-worm of depravity has
eaten its way to the very heart of the
Republican party Of moral ideas in
Ohio. The idea that it has been posi-
bic for any men base enough to accept
money to vote against the reelection Of
the Hon. John Sherman to the United
States Senate to get themselves re
turned to the Ohio Legislature by Re-
publican votes is shocking one.'
And again:
1.-THE exposure Of the foul plot of
the Democrats against the Hon. John
Sherman has probably been made in
good time to procure its Illustration.
Mr.. Sherman'S good friends are not
going to see the men in the Legislature
who ought to vote for him falter in
their allegiance for the lack of little
ready cash.
Really it would seem that the sus-
picion is growing that the Republican
party is not as immaculate as it
might be.

Prohibition in Atlanta.
constitutional

With the closing of the count Of yes
ierday'S ballots Atlanta entered upon
the most tremendous experiment tried
by any city of more than So 900 people
within the past twenty years.
No man can say what the outcome Of
this experiment will be. The most de-
yout ProhibltioniSt can not deny, even
to hms If, that there are doubts in its
solution. The wisest man cannot fore
see clearly its ultimate results. With
this uncertainty staring her in the face,
Atlanta has staked her all on the ex-
pertinent and volunteered to blaze the
way in this new departure for cities,
whether it leads to disaster or pros
perity.
These reflections should impress es-
pecially every man who voted for pro-
hibition with the new responsibilities
that rest upon them this morning. In
stead Of exultirg over victory that Is
not yet half won. they should address
themselves with energy and earnestness
to repairing what temporary troubles
may result from their votes, and pre-
vent them from settling into permanent
disaster. These words are written in
no spirit Of foreboding, but in kindness
and sincerity. Upon the shoulders Of
the Prohibitionists OF Atlanta rests not
only in large measure the responsibility
for Atlanta's future, but also the re-
sponsibility for the future Of prohibi-
ton in cities.
Every citizen Of Atlanta, no matter
how he may have voted in yesterdays
contest, will feel that this morning
brings to him added duties as 4 citizen.
lie will feel that Atlanta needs his un-
renting labor and love nov as she
never did before. If it shall be proved
that this experiment was unwise he
should have the consciousness that,
whether responsible for it or not, he has
earnestly striven to lessen the injury it
may wreak.
If it proves successful he will feel
that he has borne his part in bright
ening her glory and furthering her pros
perty.
Atlanta is our home. Whether it is
wet or dry, it is our Atlanta. Oar faith
is pinned to the old red hills on which
she sits. and our interests are centred
here. Many Of us-most of US, we may
say-intend that what we gather here
shall be left as an inheritance to our
children. 1t behooyes every man,
therefore, accepting the situation as
best he can, to discard all passion and
give, as he has always given, his best
energies to the upbuilding OF Atlanta
and the maintenance Of her prosperity.
1t is said by the Prohibitionists that
every city owes it to her citizens to
protect them from temptation. IL is
certainly true that every city owes every
honest citizen within its limits an hon.
est days work when he wants it or
needs it. This truth. which has not
been voted by majority. aud is
not to be enforced by law, is
quite as binding and quite as sacred
Us the other can possibly be. A
thousand men living in enforced idle
ness while their families suffer, if not
as bad AS a thousand men living in
casual or habitual drunkenness, make
pitiablc sight, and one that should
nerve The arm and make tireless the
energies Of every good citizen.

State for one dollars Ifyou say that you
did not then hold any such offset, does
il not look, by your own standard OF
honesty, next to shameful that just
before your taxes to the State are due
that you should rush to some broker
TO "borrow or buy coupons at about
fifty cents in the dollar, and pass such
coupons at their face value on the State
for taxes you justly owed in money!
If this is consistency, or if 1t is OF
high standard OF honesty, then it is to
be hoped that not many honest, fair
minded, patriotic men will see it in that
light. For q citizen to abuse his own
State for not paying all her creditors
claimed was due by about one third,
and then turn right around and settle
his own debt to the very same State by
making fifty cents Tor about that pay a
Just debt Of one hundred cents in the
dollar, does not sound as consistent or
extra honest. How could q State
ever pay her creditors in full ii
her own taxpayers, because they
thought they had the power, could set
tie their debts to the State in full
by simply paying about one half what
they owed the State? Mark you, if
you please. you owe the State, and not
the holders of coupons, for your taxes.
II as a taxpayer you want to act per-
fectly square, then it is your clear duty
to pay your taxes in money, because it
is money you owe to the State and not
coupons. BY doing that you will act
consistently and honestly, and you will
also throw on the State the bur-
then Of acting squarely towards
her creditors. To my mind it is
clear that your duty is first to the
State, and that as citizen you should
realize that it is the duty of the State
to settle with her creditors and not
yours. If the State fails in the per-
Torrance of her duty it would be no sort
of excuse why you should fail to per-
form yours by not paying just debt
Of 900 with sl00 in money, no mat
ter whether You ever voted or not. Be-
sides, as a lover of your kind, is it fair
OF Christian-like that you should want
others TO furnish the money to run the
government. keep up our asylums,
free schools, &C., without your
paying one cent for such purposes?
Certain it is that if the cause Of law and
humanity is to be kept by more patrI-
otto people from dying out in Virginia,
those people will demand of her repre-
sentatiyes such action as will bring about
something more like justice than that
part only Of her people shall contribute
towards the common good. Virginia
will find some way to reach those who
show so much money-loying selfshne,s.

Rules OF the IIOnse Of Representa-
tiycs of the United States.

To the Editor OF the Dispatch:
am gratifed to find in the Dispatch
of the 22d instant that it has taken
mp this very important subject" and |
propose, in connection with it, to afford
you some facts which | think will
strike the country-facts taken from
the Record and personally known to
your correspondent-and which the
country should know, but few, very
few, of the people do know:
lst. The Journals Of the houses show
that out of 325 members of the House
and &C OF the Senate the average of daily
absentees is one hundred; that in the
two sessions-a whole Congress-after
deducting Sundays, holidays, recesses,
and adiournments over from Fridays
to Mondays, the sessions do not average
two hundred days, for which the peo-
ple pay in salaries about $3.50, 900 ::
that to the one hundred absentees daily,
when the houses are in session, : ,000,-
600 is paid to those not present to rem
Ger any services that for every day
the houses are in session every member
receives $50.
In consideration OF these liberal sa'a-
lies the people have a right to expect
that their business will be attended to.
Now. the Journals show that about
$1,000 bills are introduced and referred
every Congress. This is the work Of
half minute; and yet, exclusive of pen
sion bills, not POO are acted on
Every year the number is lessened; and,
strange as il may seem, as the number
OF members is increased the business
transacted is decreased. The respOn-
sibility Of neglect Of each member is
lcssened and when a member is called
on to know the cause Of this state of
things, he points to the rules" which
are made by themselves, and, as you
very properly say, "are made not to
facilitate legislation, but to prevent it,"
The Congress Of the United States, as
conducted, is a nuisance, a fraud,
cheat, and an imposition on the people
and the time has come for a change.
Patience and forbearance have been
exhausted.
1t is notorious that bill Of doubtful
merit. or no merit. stands much
better chance of being taken up and
passed than a Just one. The reason is
obvious. \ party having just claim
cannot afford to give one half or more
to be divided up" but one having no
Just claim can.
1t is well known, and cannot be de-
MED or contradicted, that thousands of
persons annually attend Congress who
are the confidential friends of members
of Congress, and many Of the members
are under obligations to them. These
men can and DO have their business
attended to. At present, | will for
bear to say more-much more-which
could be said from personal observa-
ton and known facts. If the press of
the country will take up and fully VEN
tilate the subject, shall have some
hopes of a change, not otherwise.
In February last, it may be recol-
lected, delegation Of members of Con-
gress of Virginia waited on President
Cleveland in New York, and he said to
them: "Gentlemen, why don't you
change the rules of your House, so
that the legislation of the country can
he carried on" | repeat, why not;

had TO rely upon distractions to legis-
latiOn-in other words, filibustering-
to protect the southern States from in
justice and oppression. For forty-eight
hours, on one occasion, Mr.. RANDALL
and his supporters did without adjourn
ing hold up the obstructive rules of the
House between the southern people
and the force bill-a bill which. if il
bad become law, would in all proba-
bility have converted the United States
Government into military despotism.

bardships The foreman and two others
of the deserted men made their way in

was there chartered, and went to Rou-
cador with supplies. Three cargoes Of
guano were then successfully taken
away, when the master Of the enterprise
was laid up with rheumatism, and after
three months delay a request was
made, and Immediately complied with,
that naval vessel be sent to bring
away the labOrers.
