CIRCUMSTANCES THAT ARE WORKING FOR
GREELEY AND BROWN.
To the Edflor Of The Tribune.
SIR: Let me give you candid exposition
of the political situation" in Kansas No State has, In
the past, been thoroughly allied TO the Republican
pary than this historic State but several causes con-
spre TO render extremely doubtful in the minds OF
impartial and DISTINGUISHED observers for whom 1t WILL
In November, cast its electoral vote. l. Horace Greeley
has by his earnest efforts in behalf OF
free Kansas, greatly endoared himself TO us.
a. The mbecie and dishonest Indian policy OF
the present Administration, by means Of which sundry
contractors agents. hangerson, et ID one genus have
waxed roh and insolen while our border population
has in constant Of raids and consequence.

QUAKER policy" Is as hollow humbug as any OF the
many other humbugs OF his Administration
We know how 1t is here. from actual obserya-
ton and experience. You can only know about IL
through mendaoious letors dictated by interested par
ties s. Samuel c. Pomeroy is known to all as the most
corrupt political adventurer who disgracod an in
teligent constituency. He Is odlous TO every man In
Kansas who does not hold want an Office by his grace
Now the election OF Grant will DO the reelection OF
Pomeroy to the Senate and possibly his transfer to the
Interior Department The knowledge OF these inevitable
facts will Grant thousands OF votes in Kansas con-
seauenty the best of the Grant party are trying to
dssocae Pomeroy from Grant in this State But they
can't do 1t. Pomeroy has control OF the Federal
patronage and he does propose lose the prestige
thereof lie going to keep alive the political partner
slip OF Grant and Pomeroy even II it sinks the former
as it probably will. The wretched plumbers and In
excusabe oppression OF tho Administration toward our
pioneers upon Indian reserves will lose Grant whole
sections OF the State. Tho Kaw, Usage, Miami,
and Cherokee neutral lands are peOped by
brave and self-sacrhclDg people, and they nave
been treated by the Administration OF Gen. Grant
as II they gophers or prairie-dogs
Indeed Grant and his unes consider them OF about as
much consequence those "Yarmlnts." But ne WIN
find In November next that they have votes, ana my
power In those reserves, and that their going almost
solid for Greeley they surely WILL Will probably carry
the State for that usrious man. Many or the very
best men in State are for Greeley: the Hon e. A.
REYNOLDS OF our city, who resigned his Sem
mole Indian Agency rather than rob those un-
fortunates to divide with Pomeroy ana CarKe;
the Hon c. A. Crawford the veteran editor or south
Kansas; the Hon Charles Robinson our nrst Tree oato
Governor; the Hon. Henry c. Whitney, our state sen

the Administration and POmerOy cohorS are pane
stricken, while the Greeley men are perfectly cohhueht
and sanguine. As cool and calm Observer, honestly
think that we shall entirely overwhelm and annnlate
the majority and bury Grant, POmerOy anu cor

10000. That is the outlook at this tme ana morning can
