GOV. HOYT TO THE REsCUE,
Ms Urgent Appeal 10 Gen. Sheridan for
Protection Of the Nails"

Gov. Hoyt having received no tele-
graphic communication from Gen. Sher-
idan, in relation to the war-department
telegram, published Friday morning,
sent the following dispatch to the
acknowledgement yesterday:
TERRITORY or wYoMNG,
- EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT,
Cheyenne, Wyo., Sept. ID, 1873.
P. H. SHERIDAN,
Lieutenant General,
Chicago:
In answe to my request of Sept. 10,
for military aid in protecting the Init
ed States mails in Wyoming from the
frequent attacks Of strong bands of
de~speradoes, especially on the Union
Pacific railroad, and on the Cheyenne
s. Black Hills Stage route, I have the
following from the war department:
"Your telegram will be sent to Gen.
Sheridan with Instructions to give such
protection to the mails as means at his
disposal VII pc NIT"
Threatened depredations are immi-
nent, points Of attack uncertain. The
laws Of Wyoming do not fully meet
the exigency, and the end to be gained
is clearly and properly within the du-
ties and powers Of the federal govern
ment. NAG
1t Is believed that you will feel
authorized in detailing a sufficient body
OF troops to cooperate effectually with
the United States marshal and terrific
rial officers in any manner found neces-
sary for the protection Of the nails"
whether by resistance to attacks made,
or by pursuit and capture or d~estruc-
tion Of all bands formed for their viola
tion. Please answer.
JOHN w. HoYT,
Governor.
From the foregoing our readers will
be convinced that our chief executive
is fully alive to the situation; he is do
ing what lies within his power to avert
the threatened danger, to save the
property Of the United States, the mails
and the lives and property of our citi-
zens. In this course Gov. Hoyt has
the hearty and unanimous support Of
u PEOPLE, who realize that extraordi-
nary measures should be taken to break
up the bands Of criminals that now in
fest our territory, and who are waging
a war against civilization and human
ity.
We receive daily reports of their dep
relations; they rob the United States
mails Of everything valuable; they
abuse women and children who pass
from here to the Black Hills; they steal
horses and other property from stage
companies, ranchmen and freighters.
Only yesterday they stole two horses,
belonging to the government, at Rock
Creek station. At the present time
the railroad officials are an~ticipatinr
an attack from these desperadoes upon
the great national highway. the Union
Pacific railroad. which event IL It
should come to pass. would endanQer
the lives of hundreds of people. and
cause the loss Of an immense amount
of property.
II there Ia law enouoh in this land
and we claim the laws are adsouate-
BY all means let the government take
measures to aid our people in this X
tremity.

"BEATEN AND DISGRACED' is the head
ing of a Leading editorial in that great
Democratic exponent, the Y. Y. Sun, "
from which We extract this language: lit
is not beaten, alone, chat the Democrats
are, OH the whole. in the recent elect OnS-
they are disgracetl also. They had Two
positions, natural for them to take, which
were impregnable. One was the Observ-
ance of the constitutional provisions for
the election Of president and vice presi-
dent; the other was the sound doctrine of
Il gold basis tor currency. They aband-
oned both. They surrendered all princi-
pie, and withal were gnomniolISly beat
en, rs they ought TO have been, We do
not say the Republicans merited success;
but Democrats certainly deserved the de-
feat they have sustained. Independent
patriots will best manifest their attach
ment to tile constitution by voting against
the Democratic party. 1t will be bad for
the PARTY, hut it will be good for the
country. When any party deliberately
abandons all principle, it should in turn
be abandoned by the people. The Demo
I attic party, at the recent state convcn-
tion, silently turned its back to the con-
stitutiou. Let voters at the polls silently
turn their backs npon the Democratic
party. Those who have timidly and basely
lowered the flag should ask in vain for
victory to perch upon it. Unworthy of
leadership. let them be overwhelmed.
