This memorial relates to defraying the

w. T., of which the following is u copy, as
amended and passed by the Council.
"Your memorialists, the legislative as
scmbly of the territory Of Washington, re-
spcctfully represent: that previous to the
month Of October last, the Yakima tribe
of Indians residing east of the Cascade
mountains, by frequent acts OF hostility up
'en- A mpricah citizens, travelling through
the section Of country inhabited by that
tribe, provoked war, that the executive
of Washington territory, in consequence Of
these repeated outrages, proclaimed the ex-
istence of war, and made rcquisition upon
the territory for volunteers, which requsi-
ton was promptly met, and our citizens en-
rolled themselves into mpanies-that in
consequence Of the non-arrvu Of the arms,
to which the territory was entitled, the
scarcity of government ammunition, and
supplies Of all kinds, those companies were
forced to provide, in q great measure, their
Own munitions Of war, their means Of trans
portatlon, and other necessary supplies
that when tho regular troops, stationed
amongst lis Tor the defence oil the terrltory,
and the accepted volunteers, were drawn
of, by being marched into the Yakima
country, to prosecute said war, many oil the
Indians on the west side ol the mountains
rose IN hostility and made 1t necessary ior
tAe executive to call INTO requlsl'ioh all the
men capable OF bearing arms, to organize
volunteer corps for home deieAce, ana 10
build block houses for the safety oil families
that the means Of our citizens were inr-
ushed to garrison and protect these block
houses; while the frontier settlements, be-
ing abandoned, were subjected to the in
cnrSlons OF the savages, and much valuable
property destroyed-that our merchants
have furnished supplies, trusting that the
general government would assume the debt
our farmers have furnished their proper
ty, for the use of the service, aud all class
es Of our citizens, have contributed their
aid to the government, to carry on the war
with vigor and effect: that men of oil class
es have abandoned lucrative empIoyments,
to engage in the war. I,
These facts make it our duty to urge
upon your honorable bodies prompt and
speedy action upon the subjects referred to
in this memorial. The effects Of the exist
ing war are prostrating the energies of our
territory, and business Of all kinds, is there
by materially affected. The future settle
ment and growth of the territory, loudly
calls for action, at once, to secure conf
dence, enable us to punish the savage foe,
keep other tribes, now friendly, in subjec-
ton, and by vigorous prosecution Of the
war, early secure the blessings OF peace.
Your memorialists therefore earnestly
and respectfully urge upon your honorable
bodies, immediate relief, in the way Of ap-
preparations to meet the expenses hereto
fore incurred. by the causes hereinbefore
alluded to:
