promulgated in the platform adopted
by the late Territorial Republican con
yention that met at Rawlins on the 14tl
instant;
That we accept the nomination of w
w. Corlett as candidate for Delegate
in Congress as the most fit that could
have been made; and we, his neighbors
who have known him for many years
most unreservedly recommend him tc
the people of this Territory as man oi
marked ability, of sterling integrity
and great honesty;
That we are in favor of economy and
retrenchment in the management oi
our county affairs, and that in future
we shall hold all county officers to Q
strict accountability in the performance
of their official duties;
That we most earnestly recommend
and urge the Board of County Commits
sioners of Laramie county to take sucl
action as may be necessary to locate ant
open good wagon roads on the mos
feasible and direct lines between Chey
enne, in Laramie county, and Custe

united support in all judicious meas
ures they may adopt to carry out sucf

United States Senate.

The Senate of the United States con-
sists of seventy-six members, including
Colorado. or these twenty nine are
Democrats, and thirty-eight are Repub-
licans. Eight are counted as Independ-
ent. Two Of them, Alcorn, of Missis-
sippi, and Hamilton, of Texas, are Dem
ocrats virtually, or, at least, will be sue
ceeded in March next by out-and-out
Democrats, making the strength of that
party thirty-one. The Republican In
dependents are Cameron, of Wisconsin;
Christiancy, of Michigan; Paddock, of
Nebraska; Booth of California, and
Mcmillan of Minnesota. These six are
cordial supporters of Hayes and Wheel
er, making the strength of the Republi-
can party in the Senate forty-four. In
this calculation only one Sena or is
given to Louisiana.
The 4th of March the Democrats are
sure to gain one Senator from Arkan-
sas. The total number of Senator's
whose terms expire at that time is
twenty-three. OF these the Democrats
will keep seven, without any doubt,
namely, one in Alabama, Delaware,
Georgia, Kentucky, Mississippi, Ten
nessee, Texas. The States of Louisiana
New jersey, North Carolina, Oregon
and South Carolina are uncertain. The

sure Republican States, which are ~
States, as they might be called, are Hi
nois, Iowa, Kansas, Maine, Massachu-
setts, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska,
New Hampshire and Rhode Island
Three of the five doubtful States now
have Republican Senators.
1t will be seen from this analysis that
the United States Senate is sure to be
Republican until March 4, 1879. In
no event can the Democrats gain control
of the Upper House of Congress during
the first half of the next Presidential
term. This much may be set down as
an established fact. II furnishes the
basis of some important considerations
in regard to the Presidency and the
House of Representatives.
Every good citizen who recalls the
history of the country since the Re-
publican party came into existence,
must feel an infinite relief in the assur-
ance that, at the worst, the Democracy
will not have clean sweep. In the
positive enactment of pernicious laws,
the solid South can not give loose rein
to treason. 1t is no exaggeration, if a
paradox, to say that the worst cannot
be the worst A check is sure to be
maintained upon the rebel element.

The President and Cabinet have ta-
ken final action with regard to the dis
position of Tweed, whose arrival on the
steamer Franklin, at New York is
hourly expected. Acting Secretary of
State Cadwallader presented at the last
cabinet session letter from Gov. Til
den, asking that Tweed, upon his arri-
val be delivered to the sheriff of New
York, and that no unofficial commune
cation be permitted with the vessel, un-
til after Tweed had been surrendered
to Sheriff Conner. The President and
Cabinet decided this request should be
promptly complied with, and accord
ingly the Secretary of the Navy has is
sued orders to that effect.

Wyoming Republican Platform.

RESOLVED. That upon all questions of
national concern, we cordially endorse
and adopt the platform of principles
recited by the National Republican
Convention held at Cincinnati, and we
earnestly desire the election of the nom-
inees of that convention to the offices
of President and Vice. President of the
United States, respectively, believing
that such result would in the present
aspect of affairs be the only safe guar
anty Of the permanency of the American
Union and the prosperity of every Sec
tion of our common country.
Resolved, That we favor home-rule
and self-government in the Territories,
and in the filling Of all Offices therein,
including the important office of Dele
gate in Congress, with honest and COM
petent citizens, selected from actual and
bona fde residents of the Territory;
Resolved, That the introduction OF
Chinese labor into this country is
fraught with serious and dangerous
consequences to that system of free Ia
bor to which the Republican party has
ever been committed and that we
condemn every system and policy in
the Government which deprives Ia
bor of its dignity; and that the i'm
portation of Cinnamon to this coun-
try has driven out OF employment
a large class of native and foreign-born
citizens; and that it retards the progress
and development of the territories; and
that we highly commend the action OF
the National Republican Convention
in calling upon Congress to investigate
the effect of Chinese immigration upon
the laboring classes of this country,
and that the prompt action of Congress
in the matter meets our hearty appro-
val.
Resolved, That we utterly and un.
quali'edly condemn the whole Indian
policy OF the United States-so far as
relates TO the practice of making
treaties with these savage and barbarous
tribes-as inconsistent with the sover-
eighty of the government and as being
puerile in policy and failure in results
We therefore ask for such changes
in the policy of the government
respecting Indian affairs, as will sub
ject these savages at all times to- the
efficient and absolute control Of the ma.
tion, and will at the same time destroy
the Indian ring, its aiders and abet-
tors
Resolved, That we return thanks to
President Grants administration fol

Rifle Clubs in South Carolina.

Dispatches received at Washington
from South Carolina show that a But.
Ter Rifle Club had arranged to kill Gov
Chamberlain at the meeting at Edge
field Court House. Squads of men en-
tered the trains at various stations
shouting in the most insulting manner
"Where is Chamberlain!'' The Repub
licans were only protected by the unex
pected arrival of q. S. troops; but thu
rifle clubs practically broke up the meet
ing by their bowling.

the important steps taken to rid the
northern part of this Territory of our
old enemies, the Sioux, and that we
cordially approve of its Indian policy as
now being carried out by General
Crook and the brave officers and soldiers
of his command;
Resolved, That it is the duty of the
government to open to exploration and
settlement every acre of the public
domain, and that settlers upon the
public lands of the United States shoHld
have full protection and every en-
couragement, wherever they may be.
We, therefore, believe it to be the duty
of the United States to fully protect
such settlers from Indian depredations
and hostilities, and to indemnify such
citizens for all losses sustained in con-
sequence of failure to afford such
protection. We also demand that all
settlers upon the Shoshone Indian
reservation, in this Territory, shall
be fully compensated for their
improvements, made in good faith
thereon, before being compelled to va
cate the same; and to encourage and
promote the permanent occupation and
settlement of our Territory, we ask
that sufficient appropriations be made
by the general government to secure
the survey of all public lands within
our limits where occupation and settle
ment is practicable, and especially that
all such lands recently eliminated from
the Shoshone Indian reservation may
be surveyed without delay;
Resolved, That the establishment OF
military posts in the Wind River coun-
try and the extension of settlements
taking place In said country demand
that the Government should at once
construct from some point on the Union
Pacific wagon road through such
country to the Yellowstone National
park.
