For BRISTow.-The San Francisco
Chronicle, which probably has the
strongest Republican bearnings.oi any
professedly independent journal on
the Coast, thinks that the only saliva
ton of the party rests in the nominal
ton of Bristow at Cincinnati, and in IN
article upon the subject says: at is be.
coming more and more apparent as
the time for the meeting of the Nation
al Republican Convention approaches,
that the potential voice of the honest,
independent, unofficial masses of the
party demands the nomination of Sec
r rotary Bristow for the first place OH
the ticket. There can be nothing gained
by efforts to cloak or conceal sins
that are as conspicuous as the noon
day sun. The Republican party might
as well 60 into voluntary bankruptcy
as to attempt to retain public conf
dence and a continual lease OF official
power by denying or attem pting TO
p%alliate the corruptions that have lately
been brought to light. When a men,
Der of the Cabinet is forced to confess
his crime and step out, and the private
secretary of the President is found to
be IN close relations with the most cor
rupt of corrupt rings, all the other
members of which are sent to the PEN
itentiary, the impression cannot be
warded off that a majority oil the
official heads of the Government are
affected with the plague"

PREsIDENTIAL.-The HerGld's Wash
ington special reports President Grant
quite i'll and under the care of a physi-
clan. The nature Of his illness is not
specified. The same ingenious CORES
ponuent re iterates the statement that
Grant has declared his preference for
Conkling as his successor. The Her
AIDS wish is, we imagine, father to the
thought. That journal is all for New
York, and il Tilden and Conkling, res
rectively, be not nominated, we may
expect to see it appear printed On sack
cloth. 1t has sung this little lay in
support of the Adonis statesman until
we all know it by heart. II, however
we understand the temper of the Re
publican party, Grants Endorsement
will not carry much weight in these
days of reform. The Cincinnati Con
vention will be of the mind of Falstaff's
tailor. He said, "You should procure
him better assurance than Bardolph;
he would not take his bond and yours;
he liked not the security"

THE SIOUX TREATY.

SPoT1 ED TAIL AGENCY, Sept. %.
The treaty with the Indians of
this agency was concluded this ev-
ening after three hours council.
Spotted Tail made another lengthy
speech in which he insisted upon
going down to the Indian Territory.
first to look at the country, then to
go to Washington to talk with the
Great Father. At the same time he
also wished a delay in signing the
treaty until the present war was sat
isfactorily and peacefully settled.
Hesaid: [ wish to have two men to
help me. One is the chief minister
(pointing to Bishop Whipple) and
the other the Rev. Mr.. Hinman, to
settle the matter. You have the
words of the Great Spirit and you
try to live according to his will.
You know this war trouble does not
please the Great Spirit, and l want
you to help me to rub it out. An
Episcopalian minister has come
here to teach us, but l don't think
it is done properly. I would like to
have some female ministers, dressed
in black clothes, to receive the girls
in house and teach them, ard to
have white male ministers in black
hats and coats to take the lsoys III
another place and teach them prop
erly. These ministers | want to
take the name of things sent to US
and when they come, to see that
they are all there.
Blue Tech, ST o.ted Tia IS father
in-law, wanted to know who was the
one thai was TO carry their words to
the Great Father, and upon Solici-
tor Gen. Gaylord being pointed out
handed him handsomely decorated
pipe and tobacco pouch, which he
said the Great Spirit had given him.
He told Gaylord to present it to
the Great Father at Washing On as
from man who spoke at the coun-
Gil, and ask the Great Father to be
merciful to the Indians, and pity
them and help them, and let them
remain in their own country.
Speeches were made by several
other Indians and by Judge Gaylord
Col. Boone and Bishop Whipple,
But the Indians were undecided.

claring that there is not within the

edge, any coal or other valuable
mineral deposit, and that said land
is essentially non-mineral land.

TERRITORIAL.
From the Nalla Walla Union !


Under date of September 10Th,
Joe keeney writes from La Grande
to friend in this city as follows:
Il am doing very well, 1 think; had
my leg newly bandaged to-day and
1t feels much better. Every one that
has seen it says it is well set. 1t
was broke about six inches above
the pastern joint, on right leg. and
bone cut out through the flesh. I
was driving Warnick's Bellfounder
tilley, and expected to start with her
to Walla Walla on the next morn
ing. Delevan was on the track with
me with another horse. We were
coming down the home-stretch, he
about one length ahead, but as /
was coming on him his horse broke
and SHE'D across the track in front
OF me, and before I could stop or
swing out, we came together, up
setting both. sulkies. My foot, by
some mea rs was caught in the
wheel and | was carried over it once
some say twice, but I think not.
Besides the breaking of my leg I
was otherwise badly jammed up and
bruised, but am getting better
Not long ago William n. Smith,
Wells, Fargo & Co.'S agent at Waits
burg, received package from Bad
ger a Co., San Francisco, &c. O.
d. for c. r. Hanaford, a we'll
known merchant at the Burg. -
With the package came a letter to
Mr.. Hanaford from Badger Il Co.,
stating that they had sent a package
of their goods purchased for him by
a Mr.. Williams. A day or two af-
terw ards a letter was received by
Mr.. Hanaford, from Davidson & Co.
of San Francisco, Informing him
that they had sent him lot of jew
elry in the package fol warded by
Badger X Co, also ordered by Mr..
Williams. So far it is plain sailing.
But the affair takes another aspect
when it is known that Mr.. Hanaford
does not know any one by the name
of Williams in San Francisco, and
never gave him or any one else Or
ders to buy goods for him of the
two San Francisco firms. As Mr..
Hanaford is too well known to have
his word questioned in the matter,
it is evident that some graceless
scoundrel has been playing conf
dence game in the Bay City, and
using Mr.. Hanaford's name.

To the Voters Of King County.

GENTLEMEN:-It is we'll known
that I am again a Candidate for your
suffrage at the ensuing election, for
the responsible position of auditor and
Recorder of your county. Two years
ago, you elected me to this 1,osition
by your own free choice, for which
favor have ever since felt grateful.
Having served you nearly two years,
it is for you to say whether or not I
merit the position another term. If
I lave attended to the business Of
the county and the duties of the
office promptly, JaHhfully, mpm'
italy and honestly, then I feel that
am entitled to your support again,
otherwise / do not ask II. The pres
ent duties of the office prevent my
making an extensive canvass among
yott--were it in accordance with nv
feelings and ideas of propriety to
do Science this card. Those de-
string my reelection will protect NE
against false reports and political
bichery. I have no fears of the
truth, be it what it may.
Very respectfully
Your obedient servant.

among Spotted Tails people for
the last 81 years, told him if he did
not sign the treaty Red Cloud would
get ahead of him and derive all the
advantage to be had from the treaty
Raymond then went to Red Cloud
and Red Dog, of Red Cloud agency,
who were outside the council room,
and told them to go in and urge
Spotted Tail and his people to sign.
They did SO, and made short but
effective speeches and then with
drew. Therenpon Two Strike said
the reason We are afraid to touch
the pen and are setting before you
is because we have been deceived so
many times before, If we knew the
words you told were true, we would
be willing to sign every day. Then
Spotted Tail addressed his people,
saying. eff our friends up above" "
referring to Red Cloud agency, chad
not signed the treaty I would help
them in holding out; but as our
friends up there have signed, ask
all good men who are true to come
up and sign it." Half an hour later
the necessary signatures were at
tached and the treaty was made.
The Indians here all want the mill
tary agent removed aud Howard re-
instated.

Boss Tweed Gagged.

Woo, Spain, Sept. 26.--The U.
S. steamer Franklin arrived here
this morning. Tweed was much
depressed when told that the Frank
lin was to take him to the United
States. He hoped on arriving at
Cuba to be got off through the as
sistance and influence of his friends
and avoid being surrendered to the
American authorities. He expressed
great disappointment at the aspect.
On the arrival of the Franklin Mr..
Odel, acting Minister of the United
States in the absence OF Gen. Cush-
ing, went on board to confer with
her commander regarding the pro-
posed transfer of Tweed and Hunt
to the steamer. The intention is to
remove the prisoners from their
present quarters to the steamer this
evening. During their confinement
Tweed and Hunt were kept in sepa-
rate rooms, closely guarded and not
allowed to communicate with each
other. Capt. Graly issued strict or
ders that none should be allowed to
speak to them. Mr.. Odel has been
warned that Tweed might make
away with himself rather than re-
turn to New York; the commander
of the Franklin has therefore been
instructed to keep him strictly con-
fined, and to leave him no opportu-
nifty to jump overheard.

COTTON.

The market this morning was rather
quiet, with prices weak and a shade
lower; holders offered freely, with little
inquiry, but buyers were not disposed to.
concede to holders prices, hence trans
actions were limited. Estimated sales
for the dsy, 800 bales; sales yesterday
we're $50 bales principally for export.
