LEAvENwoTH CITY, May 20, 1905.
EDITOR HERALD:
Dear Ssr-Haying a little news,
thought I would let you have it.
An express arrived from Fort Scott for
more troops to be sent down there.
The Border Rufians have commenced
their outrages upon the Free State men in
that vicinity. On the 23d alt. they stole
Mr.. Joseph Oakley's horses and fired upon
him. They same scoundrels take refuge in
the Fort and ask for more troops to protect
them; which they get very readily. Some
started from here few days ago for that
purpose. They can shoot down Free State
men when they please-that's all right;
steal their horses, DC, and then take refuge
in the Fort; but if Free State man at
tempts to retaliate, the U. s. troops are
after him.
Just so these h-lhounds have been
protected. They shot Denton; Hendricks
they shot while waiting on his sick wife;
he fell across her bed, and died without ut
tering word. They next picked out Da-
Wis, but did not succeed in killing him.
Harbin was their next man, whom they
shot in bis own bed; and now Oakley
But Lane has promised to attend to them,
so think I shall have good news to write
before long, unless they escape to Wash
ington and claim the reward of murderers
and scoundrels, as Henderson, McLane,
Calhoun, DC, have done before them. They
certainly have great claims on James Bu-
chanan for their perseverance and sue
cess in robbing and numbering Free State
men.
The remainder of the Utah expedition is
ready to start, but the officers generally
do not expect to leave. They expect the
Peace Commissioners will settle the matter
with Brigham.
must call your attention to one of the
many ways practiced by the ADMINISTERS
tion of robbing the treasury. The Secre-
tary of War gives out the contract to fur
nish horses for the army to some particu-
lar pet. The one at the Fort here has a
contract for 1000 head, at $159 each. He
comes to the Fort, and his highest paying
pnce Is sl20. The proper officers here in
spect the horses, and if they suit, he buys
them as cheap as he cantor sl2o, or less
thus compelling them 10 take inferior
horses or 60 without, as good horse read
lily brings $3.50 here; stocking the army
with second and third rate horses, when
the money they cost the Government
would buy first class. Thus, you see, a
pet of the administration is allowed to
pocket $4,000 or 100000 of the Govern
ment money, and stock the army with an
inferior lot of horses. The mules, oxen
and everything else bought here, is done in
the same way.
Yours, Truly, B. +. A.
