GENERAL CROOK.
What He Says Of the Indians and Their
warfare--Bow to Manage Them.

Judging from the way in which the
winter campaign against the Indians
has been begun,i it is to be supposed that
it will be vigorously pushed forward ac-
cording to General Crook'searly designs.
AS is well known he has formed a Wig
orous campaign for the winter. His
ideas upon this and other subjects con-
nected with Indian fighting are well
brought out in the following statement
made by him 500 after the conclusion
of the summer campaign:
"Our next objective point is Crazy
Horse. He should be followed up and
struck as soon as possible. There should
be no stopping for this OF that thing.
The Indians cannot stand a continuous
campaign. ! cannot tell whether we can
90 on yet. That depends OF u getting
the things we want. The best time to
strike the Indians is in the winter. They
cannot remain together in large bodies
at that season. The necessities Of subsis-
tence compel them to seperate, and then
is the time to throw o large force on each
band and crush them all in detail. II
you strike one band now, it is never sc
far from others but these can concen-
trate on the attacking force if it is a
small one, or they can communicate
with each other and scatter If they want
to run from a large one"
In reference to the hardships Of the
past campaign, General Crook said they
were not likely to occur again. "How
could anyone anticipate such a season
| of rain when we had been living idle all

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 a result would in the present
aspect of affairs be the only safe guar
ahty of the permanency Of the American
Union and the prosperity of every sec
ton 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 tide 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
Dor to which the Republican party has
ever been committed and that we
condemn every system and policy in
the Government which deprives Ia
Dor Of its dignity; and that the inn
~portation of Cinnamon to this
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-
q~ualifedly 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 over
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 for
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;
Resolred, 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 should
have full protection and every en-.
couragement, wherever they may be,
We, therefore, believe it to be the duty
IF the United States to fully protect
such settlers from Indian d~epredationi
and hostilities, and to indemnify sucf

The Cheyenne daily leader. [volume] (Cheyenne, Wyo.) 1870-1884, 1876-10-31

The New York Times of Sunday has
the following telegram from Philadel-
phia: The police last night captured a
paper for issuing $4,000 bogus tax re-
ceipts in this city in the hands Of two
prominent members of the Democratic
party. 1t seems that a few days ago
Hon. Christian Kneass, chairman Of
the Republican City Committee, to
whom. credit for unearthing this great
fraud is due, was informed that the
Democrats intended to flood the city
with bogus tax receipts, but had great
trouble to procure paper with the water
marks. Of personal tax of 1876, on it.
At last paper was obtained and tonight
while the rank and file of the party were
giving Gen. Mcclellan, of moth pow
der fame, a reception a wagon came
out of Griswold's alley near Sixth and
cambridge streets, in the 4th ward.
This was followed by detective Harry
Weyler. A carriage was driven to
headquarters of the Democratic State
Central Committee, No. 1904 Walnut
street. Here Henry Marcus, ex-member
of the city council from the 4th ward
alighted. Soon Samuel Josephs a leader
of the Democrats and candidate for leg
islature in the 28th district appeared
and in a short time Marcus and Josephs
appeared coming from headquarters,
each carrying a large bundle. The bun
dies were placed in the carriage and
Marcus got in, Josephs went up Walnut
street, detective Wayle and two officers
followed in another carriage and ON
Locust street below 10th overhauled
the carriage containing the bogus re-
ceipts. The party were driven to police
headquarters where it was found that
it was a great capture, the receipts hav-
ing the required water mark and could
not be detected from the genuine. Mar
u was given a hearing and held in
$1,000 bail for violating election laws.
A warrant was issued for Josephs and he
will be arrested before morning. The
driver of the carriage said the receipts
wereto be taken to the printing house of
Gillen & Nagle, in 9Th street below Wal
nut. This capture prevents the consum-
nation of the greatest fraud which had.
ever been attempted here and shows
where the party Of reform intended to
get their votes.

COL. LANNON'S

We de not know what may be the
desire of voters in the Western por-
ton of the State as to who shall oc-
cupy the gubernational chair for the
ensuing term, but if the men of both
parties are to be believed in the three
counties constituting the eastern
panhandle, Mr.. Mathews will have
to look elsewhere for support. 1t is
a fact beyond cavil that the mass of
voters including the rank and file of
both parties openly ,avow their inten-
ton of voting for Ward II. Lamon
for Governor-should he be a candi-
date. Whilst there can be no doubt
of his republicanism, still, he is ex-
ceedingly popular with democrats,
for many personal favors and
kind acts rendered, when he
was in command in this section
and while he was Lincoln's Marshal
in Washington. Every person seems
to like him for his genial qualities,
general kindness and manly bearing.
Should he run, even Democratic JEFF
son will probably honor him with a
majority, whilst his native county of
Berkeley would, with Morgan, pile
up votes by the hundreds in his fa-
vor. This is from an independent
rather than a partizan standpoint,
and is based upon the open express
sion of men of all parties in this Sec
ton. If the Republicans should NOM
mate him, his personal popularity
will prove a tower of strength.

Dull Times

M%artinsburg is oppressively dull at
the present time and a dog fight has
not taken place within a fortnight.
To exert ones self is too much Of an
effort during this excessively hot
weather. No one will fall from a
building and kill himself just so
that he a circumvent the reporter
from procuring a local for the edifi-
cation of his readers. Matters can
not remain much longer so-a change
must come, and that quickly, if we
desire to witness once more the
chronic orr %loafer, filing his posi-
ton with all the energy of former
days, when, with cigar in mouth
and pants in boots, he stood SO no.
bly, and faithfully ON guard. But
he, even is gone, his broad fists
damned into his pockets, and what
vas at one time condemned in DAYS
of prosperity during these dull times
we would be pleased to see in all his
former prestige. But it's of no use
repining. The corner was too dull
for him, and he has ''gone where the
wsodbine twineth." The peanut
man is overcome with heat, and ST.
lently mods as sleep steals DER him.
Not a breeze rufleS the streets, and
people can scarcely be heard above a
whisper III their conversations. Bus
mess men go in and out of their
stores with spy glasses in hand
looking for customers, but their eff
forts are all in vain, and their only
ralinf It tn hnp6 1nuyn frayo H.
per shelf the old ledger filled with &C
counts which were never settled and
what is still worse never will be and
look over it and recall to memory
the days when a dollar was a dollar
and not a delusion and a snare. The
book-keeper scratches his pate makes
a dash for a blue fly and looking over
his chirography family shakes his
head, smiles a Sickly smile, as he be-
holds the names of his old customers
who were so emulous of having their
names placed upon the book of time.
Poor souls they never thought that
by doing so they would be able to
perpetuate their memories with the
merchant, if not with the people.
Midsummer apparently is here and
we might just as well prepare our
selves by taking adult doses and look
the matter straight in the face and
take the weather and the time just
as they come, and not seize the lever
and attempt to change it's course.
We are well aware that there are
prophets in u midst and those
who can perform miracles, but for
once let them be passed by and let
the ennu which is stealing over us
have full range. You know the dark
est cloud has a silver lining.

Night Air.

Why should people be so terrified
at the admission of night air into
any of their sleeping apartments !?
1t is natures ever-iowing current,
and never carries the destroying an
gel with it. See how soundly the lit
tie wren and tender robin sleep I'M
der its full and immediate influence,
and how, fresh, vigorous, and joyous
they rise amid the surrounding dew
drops of the morning. Although
exposed all night long to the air of
heaven, their lungs are never out of
order /; and this we know by the
daily repetition of their song.

Day on.

Who does not needi it ? When the
burden of work grows heavier, the
brain dull and sluggish and the whole
man takes on a weary, respondent
look, a don't-care sort of feeling, it
is time to throw business to the
wind, put books and papers out of
sight, lock the door and set face to-
ward green fields and running
streams. Man needs rest as well as
the rest of Gods creation, and no
better time for taking a day off can
be had than the present. The warm
weather has had its effect on us all,
and more or less each of us feels SEN
sibly the need of ~recuperation to re-
store III exhausted energies. The
wise man will take the rest his phys
ical nature requires, bnt he who
pays little attention to hygiene and
exhausted nature will soon pay the
price of his folly.

Highly Credifahle.

We were glad to notice that the
Democratic ratification meeting on
Fridaynight was conducted through
out in the most orderly manner. No
act was done, and no word said, to
our knowledge, calculated to offend
or insult their political opponents
This is as it should be. The object
of both political parties is to make
votes. Abuse and v~illifcation of op-
ponents is not likely to have the eff
feet of bringing them over Argu-
ment and facts is what convince men
of even ordinary intelligence. We
are glad the campaignin this county
has been started on this line. Now
let the Republicans emulate their
Democratic opponents in this res
pect.

Well Said.

The Warrington Capital has
some excellent remarks on the SUBJ
ject of the South and the Ham,
burg riot" which is the proper
word, and the one which would
be applied to such an affair up
North, instead of that of ''massa-
cre," as political partisanship die
tates for everything of the sort in
the South. The Capital is justly
afraid that the leading members
of the Southern press will depre-
cate this transaction in vain, or a
Lamar spend his graceful periods
fruitlessly on the floor of the
House, if the citizens with one
voice do not call upon the State
authorities to vindicate law and
order and administer justice with
swiftness and sternness. 1t would
not recommend the example of
the New Jersey tanners, who
drove the three brothers, MUIR
derers of the same type as those of
Hamburg, into the river and
stoned them to death, but would,
as we do, urge a solemn support
of legal supremacy.

The ". r Camp Meeting at Oakyilie.

A block of handsome tents are be-
ing erected on the Cumberland Val
ley camp ground, near Oakville.
The new well in the encampment
furnishes an abundance of cold, pure
water. A large tank is being put up,
to accommodate the people.
Edward Long, of York, who had
charge Of the boarding tents last
year, has leased them for the APP
preaching meeting.
Camp will begin on the LIST Of Au-
gust and close on the 18th. 1t prom
Uses to be very large.
The Daily Camp Journal viii be
published by d. X. 81. G. Wagner,
as q morning paper.
The camp book store and postof-
flee will be in charge of Messrs. Fry
singer u Shiffer, of the Methodist
book store in Harrisburg.
An efficient police force will be
present every day and night, during
the camp meeting. The law passed
last winter gives camp police full au-
thority to arrest and imprison Of
tenders.
The presence of Bishop Bowman
and Chaplain M'Cabe will add much
to the interest of the meetings.
Baggage and camp equipage will
be carried free of charge to and
from Camp station, by the railroad
company.
All passenger trains will stop at
the camp ground. Excursion tickets
will be sold at all points on the line
of the Cumberland.Valley railroad.
Tent holders who board them
selves can buy provisions of all kinds
on the grounds. Straw and wood
will also be supplied to those who de-
sire them.
