Oct. 9th, 1873, , REPUBLICAN TICKET. For Judges of Supreme Court, 8. H, DWINELLBE....0f San Francisco, ANSON BRONSOV..... of Los Angeles, ~-Elgction Wednesday, Oct. 15, 1873, TY hen sensnemeeesnene 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 according to the red man’s con. . tribe that they were in error?. Are other Indians convinced? * Every-’ But he is a man of . . [have presented themselves for. con~ the-land-in-order for “plowing, “and Sascuinnislshiinebeaieesaaie oinescenetaneeerceeat ing of Captain Jack convinced his body says the Modocs déserve no greater punishuient” than -Ben, Wright and his men. The crinfé%n bboth cases~-was the same.. Ben, Wright escaped punishment and was complimented for his act of perfidy. The Modocs know it. They know that our religion and laws do not sanction massacres in violation of a flag of truce, and'so much. greater professions to commit an act of perfidy; the Modoes live by theirs when they bring retaliation for the perfid. ious act. Judged by theif standard they have done no wrong, and Capt. Jack is a martyr whose blood is “to be atoned for. “All. the Indians who profess the Smohallow religion so believe. All are as one in aiitagonisi to the inimical race. -Tt goes forth to the world particularly the Indian world, thatthe Modocs suffered to teach the Indians the sacredness of a flag of trace. But we will take care not to tell them we Violated the white flag first. That fact will be learned from Indian mouths and spoil the effect we desired to produce by the execution o the Modocs., be ' 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 rain commenced falling, ‘and has continued with scarcely any intermission up to this writing, It is a mild rain, and devoid of the strong oliz.culpability, We violate our own . ° ee 4 The ceisué of shows that there was then growh.in the United 5 ternal revenue taxes derived from tostates that the price ranged thas: iis Connecticut brought an average price of 25 cents per wound,.in Massachusetts 20 cents, Ohio 9 cents,and Kentucky’ 7 cents per pound. A .g00d quality to be used as fine cut, will bring in the Eastern States 25 to 30 cents per pound. And in this connection we may .state that the Gilroy Advocate, in whose vicinity there are several fine tobacco plantar tions, claims that with good tillage ran acre will yield 2,000 pounds, or $200 per acre at fen cents per pound. Against this there is the cost of production, say land and fencing $100 pat ten per cent.,$10; cultivation, drying;etc.,$50; total,'$60, This would shall] cyt pounds, or one-third, and that will leave a profit of $73 50.per 4cre—and that is plenty, and. much more than tobacco raisers will average bere or elsewhete: “* 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 Milton Andros, Benjamin, Smith, J, 2. Boyd, H. G. Rolling and G. W. Chapman. adits 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 { desperadoes, about the-ownership 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. wind that usually accompanies our 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-. cided this question long ago. 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 Williams, of Colusa county, California. 4 Very m1, : _The San Mateo Gazette says Alvinza Hayward is suffering from a relapse.
