chair by the aid of Southern Oregon votes, will be

you to vote for him as chief officer of the State.
Yet there are some who are resolved to vote for
this dishonest, vainglorious man, attempted to be
f dated upon the people by Ben. Holladay ; and
that they may be strengthened in their resolution,
they are requested to turn to the first page of this
paper, and read the petition from the Legislature
of 1856, to President Pierce, for the removal from
office of Joel Palmer, then Superintendent of In
dian affairs. The reasons given in the petition
why he should be removed were "incompetency ard
dishonesty.” Among the list of signers to that
petition, will be found the names of such Repub

be attributed to the acts of our own people, I can
not but feel that it is our duty to adopt such meas
ures as will tend to secure the lives of the Indians

been forced upon these Indians against their will,
and that, too, by a set <>f reckless vagabonds, for
pecuniary and political objects, and sanctioned by a

the United States a legitimate subject of plunder.
The Indians in this district have been driven to
desperation by acts of cruelty against their peope ;
treaties have been violated and acts of barbarity
committed by th >se claiming to be citizens, that
would disgrace the most barbarous nations of the

acts were to be affected by this war, we might, look
