ILLEGAL VOTING AT NEEAH Bay
The papers up Sound are noticingthe fact
that lot of Indians at Neeah Bay were
allowed to vote at the late election.
Transcript and STANDARD of course are
down on the affair, but the Age seems to
apologize for it. Now We wish at this
time, as friends Of Mr.. Garfclde, and as
Republicans, to enter our solemn protest
against any such illegal acts, no matter
which party is guilty Of them. Indians
are not citizens; and have no right to vote,
and the Necah Bay people who conceived
the idea, and the judges Of election who
suffered such an outrage, are alike deserv.
ing of the contempt of every honest and
right minded man, and we call upon the
Republican press Of the Territory to en-.
dorse us in this expression of our views,
for VIC look upon that Indian vote as a
disgrace and an insult to the Republican
party. Thank God, Mr.. Garieide does
not need any such low down tricks. and
although the parties who were engaged in
this matter claim to be Republicans aud
friends of Mr.. Garfeldc, yet all true Re.
publicans and true friends of his utterly
ignore and despisc such business.
Would the Message, from which the
above is copied, have been as mealy.

mode of sinking the rcsposibility-by de-
clarins it joke. But then his patron,
the COL, suggested that.
