SENATOR THURMAN AND "SELF
RESPECT"

Can Thurman preserve his self-respect
and take the stump in favor of the DEM
oCratic ticket and platforln-7OLed0 Blade.
If, living in country infested by a
band of thieves that threatened to over
throw the government, would it not be a
disgraceful sight to see the patriots of the
country quarreling and fighting among
themselves as to what policy they would
pursue, when they had driven out the
thieves and secured the safety of their
country? We are living in such coun-
try. The government has been plunder-
ed, the safety of our institutions threat
ened, and it is the duty of all good and
true men to unite for the purpose of re-
storing an honest government and secur-
ing the safety of our institutions. 1t is
not necessary that we should now agree
upon all questions of policy. The time
will come, when patriotism has conquer
ed and we have the power, that these
differences can be settled. The fact that
Senator Thurman will take part in the
campaign, troubles our Republican
friends. They hoped to see him, like the
Grecian leader; sulk in his tent, but Sem
ator Thurman has too much love of coun-
try for that. He can not only preserve
his self-respect. and take the stump in
favor of the Democratic ticket" and so
much of the platform as does not refer
to the currency question, but he will

would especially call your attention
to the evidence of fraud in beef cattle as
presented in the accompanying state
ment. This subject | investigated with
great care, as beefis almost the principal
article of food ofthe Sioux Indians. and
the frauds observed have caused great
suffering among them, ss well as great
pecuniary loss to the Government,
The statement have prepared is sup
ported in all its essential parts by the
testimony of officers of the army who
were with me in my expeditions at the
Red Cloud Agency, Among those otti-
GERS are several personally known toyou,
and all are gentlemen of high character.
Should any part of my statement be Sc
riously questioned, trust you will allow
these gentlemen to be heard. If the
commanding officers of all posts near the
Indian agencies or other trustworthy
and disinterested observers there could
likewise testify, | think it would be
found that have but family indicated
the corruption pervading Indian affairs.
l have purposely ly confined myself in this
statement to single agency, and mainly
t the time of my visit, without reference e
to much other testimony which has come
to me incidentally in the prosecution of
my inquiries showing frauds of equal
magnitude at other points. This corrup-
ton, which is q, constant source Of discon-.
tent and hostility among the Indians
themselves, is in myjudgment a natural
result of the present loose and irrespon'
sible system Of furnishing Indians with
goods and supplies, a system that tends
directly to invite frauds. / do not be-
lieve that anything but a radical change
in this respect willprevent the continued
demoraliEation of the Indian service.
You alone have the will and the power
to destroy that combination of bad men
known as the NIndian Ring" who are
debasing this service and thwarting tile
efforts of all who endeavor to bring to a.
full contamination your, noble policy of
peace. Very respectfully,
NgG WCYour obedient servant,
