The Indian Proplem. © .
~ Looking at the conflict bf races upon the Ameritatr continent during
the last four centuries, we find ample evidences that the natives of the
' goil are bound to be at no distant
day wholly dbliterated. The Indi“ans, however, do not all “read their
‘ doom in the setting sun.’ At any
rate such js not-the case with the
Rocky, Mountains. The Red.»Man
has quick perceptions; his. intuition
is remarkable. He sees the adyanc.
ing strides of the white race and the
receding steps of hisown. He takes
cognizance of our physical prowess in
consequence of arms and the many
other resources of civilization. Withscience, he sees the logic of events;
’ he understands the melancholy conclusion of it all.
superstition and ignorance, and,consequently, a man of faith. He isa
religious beingand lives closely to his
profession whatever that may be.
Within the last ten years a new religion has taken root among the Indians west of the Rocky Mountains.
It is not wholly new but it has those
new elements that give hope and en+
eouragement to the expiring tribes.
A great dreamer has appeared among
them who gives the source. of his
revelations, But what is inspiriting
to the Indians is the certain promise
‘that ‘the advancing tide of the
white race is to recéive. a) sudden
check; that ages of triumph over the .
a retribution: that shall restore the
autocthones to their ancient rights,
The earth is to open and swallow up
the whites, while the spirits of all
the Indians that ever dwelt in the
land are to come forth to inherit the
Rpoils of our annihilated race. Such
is the central and captivating idea of
the Smohaliow religion; that, startingin Oregon less than ten years
ago, has already indoctrinated most
of the tribes from the Rocky Mountains westward and. to the north .of
us. The faith of the Indiansin this
religion is strong. According to tha
dreamer, who is the propagator of it,
it was revealed to him in a way not
unlike that’ by which spiritualists reit land, A woman and a boy came
to him in a dream, who had somewoman and a boy. All took hold of
revelation in an unknown tongue
‘was made, but it was comprehended by the medium, This revelation
‘was communicated to the Indians
and immediately began to spread,
until it has reached numerous tribes
and is still spreading. It is asserted
that the various tribes have met in
convention on seyeral occasions by
representatives, aud exchanged views.
Faith in the truth of what is te come
issupreme. It influences the lives
of all indoctrinated with it,
In view of this fact, a confederacy
of the Indians on this Western coast,~
Tike that attempted in the time of
Tecumseh, is not without the range
_of possibility. Whenever a dreamer
events beforehand several times, or
shall acquire a reputation for having
dont'so, and confidence shall be established in his declarations, a call
to arms may be ‘answered by a
‘twhoop and yell and wild haloo”’
through all our mountains, and centuries of wrongs may be attenijited
to be redressed.
That the Indians have suffered,
and are still suffering grievous
wrongs from the white race, not one
can successfully deny, According to
the ethics of all Indian tribes, the
“Modoes did no wrong in killing Canby and Thomas, aud the execution of
Captain Jack and his asdociates was,
in their eyes, but murder, thus adding another to the wrongé ef the
white race to ke remembered. The
fathers of these very meu were deooyed by a flag ef trace by white
men, and massacred. Indian law

The Modocs know it. They know

Catholic Mission.
A mission, or what Protestants
would calla revival, is going on in
the Catholic church. in this city,
Like other denominations, some of
the members have got lukewarm and
cold in religious matters, derelict in
duty, absenting themselves from
church, ete., and the object of the
mission is to call back the wandering sheep. Accordingly massis held
every morning at6, 7, and 8 o’clock,
afterswhich a. sermon is preached.
and at 6 o’clock in thé evening vespers are had. We understand: that
quite an interest is manifested in
these meetings, and they are welt-attended. A number of young people
firmation, and last Sunday morning
nine were received into the church.
The mission is conducted by Bishop
O’Connell, and Fathers Buchard,
Beckett and Meagher.

About 10 o'clock on Tuesday night

A New Industry.
The certificate of incorporation of
the Pacific Needle Manufacturing
Company has been filed in.the office
of the Secretary of State. The object
of the corporation is to manufacture
all kinds of needles for sewing machines; also sewing machines and
sewing machine fixtures, and to purchase and sell mategjal for the same.
The company is to exist for fifty
years, and the principal place of business will be San Francisco. Capital Stock, $200,000, divided into
2,000 shares. The Directors are

The Three Pines,
Three Pines, the scene of. the
murderous opérations of Vasquez
and his band, has become’ rather a
dangerous locality for peaceable’ citi-!
zens toresidein: A shooting affray
took place there between a.couple of

a saddle; and Mr. Snyder-who kept
astore, became an object of such
hatred to the bandits that, believeing his life in danger, he closed out
and left the place.

Fall rain. storms.
dust,.so annoying to the traveling
public, is effectually laid,and in a few
daysafter the storm subsides the roads
will be in splendid condition. The
great benefit of the rain, however,
will be experienced in the agricultural portions of the State, by putting
starting the young grass on the
pluins for the recuperation of stock.
In the mountains, too, the storm will
be beneficial in softening the gravel
banks, rendering them more easily
worked, also in raising the springs
and supplying those mines with water that require bat a few inches.
In short it is a blessing to the entire
State, and everybody is glad to see it.
The Election.
’ The Judicial election will come off
October 15th, When there will be one
or two Justices of the Supreme Court
to be elected, as that Court may
hereafter determine. The Republican party has put up two candidates,
others only one, and for this conflict
of opinion the Supreme Court is it‘shall sueceed by chance in guessing . If to blame: ~Itshould -have~de-.

Will Close Up.
We understand that an arrangement is being ented into by the
merchants of this city, and on Monday of next week they will commence
closing at 8 o'clock in the, évening.
This will include from Monday to
“Friday evenings of each week during
the Winter. Saturday ‘nights the
stores will be kept open to a later
hour, so that people can lay in their
supplies for Sunday.

New Invention.
A Colorado sheep fence is canyas,
fastened, between two stakes, the
posts being ten feet apart. It is
about two feet wide, itis about ten
inches from the ground, can be rolled
up every morning, placed in the
herder’s wagon, and put down at
night again wherever the sheep may
be. It is the invention of A. S. Mo
