House of the Legislatu4re had a proposition before it to abolish the office of public printer, and establish a board of public printing, consisting of the Secretary of State, Auditor and Treasurer, who shall award the print- ing to the lowest bidder.

The <Republican's> St. Joseph special says: "Advices from the plains and mountains report the great body of the Indians moving southward. Old Indian fighters say this means war—that the Indians have a knowledge of the troops which are being sent out, and so they are moving southward to open the war in that less protected region, but when the troops are sent after them, they will give them the slip, dash North again and spread murder and devastation upon the region thus uncovered."
