taling upon The people TO resist the Wig
lance Committee.
Judge Perry had issued a writ Of ha.
beas corpus, demanding the prisoners in
the hands of the committee, but tho writ
was resisted.
On the Sd the Governor issued procla.
ton declaring the country in state Of iD-
surrection, and authorizing the MAJOR Gen.
eral Of the Second Division of State Mali
Tia to raise an army TO preserve law and
order.
The action did not alarm the committee.
They have 5000 men fully equipped and
ready for instant action, being thoroughly
arranged and in constant drill for two
weeks under competent officers. Men,
money, and munitions Of war, from. all
parts OF the State are at their. command,
aud il is confidently believed that the
Governors effort will amount to nothing.
The volunteer military companies IN
San Francisco and Sacramento have dis.
banded, il order to avord being called out
by the Governor. tits reported, however,
that 1900 men are enrolled under the gov
eminent authorities. No collision is an-
ticipated.
A petition, numerously signed, was in
circulation, asking the Governor TO call
all extra SESSION of the Legislature.
The Vigilance Committee deny having
anything to do with this petition
| The San Francisco Herald Is the only
journal which opposes the committee; it
puts different coloring upon the state Of
affairs; says that the Governors proclama-
ton islargely responded to; that citizens
are largely pressed forward TO enrol them.
selves under the authorities; that on the
4th Of June 1900 were enrolled, and that
by Saturday 10000 would be in arms on
the side Of the law. Ii also says that three
divisions of the milts have been ordered
out, and that many new companies Of vol
unteers are forming.

attempted the life of the servant alluded
to, and in the presence of large assem-

ieved that Lesch is now, or was few

Fort Nsqually on Sunday last. 1t ap'
pears he was in very destitute condition

ed of having had q very hard time Of it on
the other side Of the mountains, as there
was but little large game there, and the
salmon did not run up in the streams there
in the fall of the year. As the Indians
there would not feed or shelter him only on

1t is reported that Charley's band Of the

with the boundaries of the reservation re-
Gently surveyed and set apart for them, and
refuse to go on it unless the entire Ms

that further Indian troubles are still in

the end will be, or what number Of Indians
our settlements will have to oppose, no one

FRIEND Wiley
The last mail brought us few copies
Of the Pioneer and Democrat. Your friends
in this city are very much grati6ed to learn
that you are again able to issue your Valu-
able paper. May the time be far distant,
when you will be again compelled to sus-
pend its publication. Since the Territory
was first organized, there never was so
much necessity for newspaper, as at the
present time. ....
The citizens of Washington Territory
ought to kn0t0 and feel, that it is absolutely
necessary, that they should have some chan
mel through which they can make known
their wants, not only to the general gov
ernment, but to those who legislate for the
public good.
The notices Of numerous public meetings
which have been held, and the noble man.
ner in which the citizens have come for
ward and sustained Gov. Stevens, has given
general satisfaction to the friends of the
Territory-in and out of Congress-and
shown conclusively, the necessity which
compelled the governor to resort to such
extreme measures. These facts came in n
o very opportune moment, for with them,
and the influence of your delegate The
president has decided mot TO remors vony

CURED in the proyt cUtion of the late Indian in
OREGON and Washington, including pay of volunteers,
will 20 out by this mail. Hon. l.. +. GROVER, will
te one of the Board, and have been promised that
Capt. INGALLS, and Capt SMITH, of the Army, will be
the other two.
The political horizon is frightening. Pennsylvania,
New jersey, Indiana, Illinois and California, you may
set down as certain for Buchanan. Every Southern
State will 60 for Buchanan. This will be enough and
10 spare.
The Black Republicans injured their prospects very
much by their revolutionary conduct In the House. In
their efforts to defeat the passage Of the bill for the
slIuport of the Army. Your friend
JOSEPH LANE.
Although in common with our fellow
citizens, we most heartily rejoice that Con
grcss has recognized our volunteer war in
debtedness, in such q manner that it virtu-
ally amounts to an assumption; ; and despite
the opposition and traduction Of Gen.
Wool, and satellites, that q Commission
has been appointed to adjust and audit the
same yet in the appointment of that Com
mission, whilst member Of the board has
been selected from Oregon, we cannot un-
derstand why this territory was not consid-
cred as entitled to a member We cannot
understand why, after Gen. LANE had sue
ccedcd in procuring the appointment of Mr..
GROVER, of Oregon, he should desire 70
hare promised to him, that Capt. INGALLS,
and Capt. SMITH, Of The Army, should also
be appointed, to the exclusion Of a men,
Der from this Territory. We could have
no objection that one of those Army Off
GERS should he placed upon the board, but
we claim, at the same time, that this Ter
ritory is as deeply interested in the adjudi-
cation of the war debt as is Oregon, and
that our citizens are as equally and justly
entitled to a representative on the Commis-
sion. AS it appears that Gen. LANE has
only been promised that the officers Of the
Army, above mentioned, should be appoint.
ed as members of the Board, we trust it may
yet transpire that thai promise has been ar
rested ere it has been fulfilled, by our dele
gate, Col. ]. PATTON ANDERSON, by seeing
to it that this Territory be placed upon
something like terms of equality with Ore
gon in the appointment of a Commission tc
examine and report upon the war indebted
ness of the two Territories.
