PROFFERING VOTES.
The Secretary Gives the
Knights to Quay
FOR THE USE OF REPUBLICANS
A Remarkable letter Received by
the Chairman Of the National
Republican Committee.

WASHINGTON, August Ex-senator
Quay, chairman OF the Republican Ma
tional committee, furnishes for publica
ton long letter from Charles L. Litch-
man, of Philadelphia, secretary of the
Knights of Labor, in which he says that
whenever votes may be shown for
separate political parties, the fact re-
main that the candidate for either the
Republican or Democratic party will be
the next President. Therefore, to him
who has got the welfare OF This country
and of her people at heart, the ueces-
slty exists TO choose 10 WHICH OF these
two party organizations
SHALL BE GIVEN AID,
either directly or indirectly, by voice or
vote. While it may be that neither
party offers all that the labor organi-
zations desire, believe that the Re-
pQblicans, IN adopting and advocating
the system of the encouragement OF
protection to the labor and wages OF our
land are nearer to the deGlara ions
and desires of organized labor than it,

party. The theory OF protection, ad-
vocated BY the Repu Ollcan party, is
the same as the underlying principle
upon which labor organizations are
founded. A friend to organized labor
that believes in the organization as a
means to enhance and maintain
wages, cannot consistently oppose the
party that supplies to all iaoor

Calm at Last.

DENVER, August 3O.-The committee
on resolutions of the Deep Water Con-
yention was in session nearly all last
night and all morning until 1870, when
Governor Thayer called the convention

manded the establishment of a deep
water harbor On the northwest coast Of
tie Gulf OF Mexico, and that all the
Senators. Representatives, and Dele

the minority report, which, in sub.
stance, urges Congress TO appoint a
board of engineers to locate harbor at
the most suitable point. and the adopt
| ton of all the necessary means to Sc
cure the appropriation to complete the
work.
Ths report endorsed the efforts of
private enterprise to secure & deep
water harbor on the Texas coast, and
pledges its influence in inducing the
| Government to reimburse the persons
engaged in the enterprise. ltfurther ap.
proves the idea of securing deep-water
at Arkansas Pass by private capital and
asks Congress for protection in the pro-
secution of the work and to reimburse
the citizens engaged in il.
Ex-Governor Gibbs. of Texas, intro.
duced a resolution which was propo ed

cast OF the Gulf, and asks Congress to

preparations for their speedy compile

Major Anderson Addresses the Abort
ginese for the Great Father.


ST. PAUL, August 30.-A Crow Creek
agency special says: The council to-
day was called 20 order at II 80.
After prayer, MAJOR Anderson
thanked the Indians for the cordis
manner in which they have rec lived

Father. He reviewed the entire
history of the Crow Creek and Whine.
bago reservations. He stated that the
| Indians on this reservation had always
expressed o desire to be separated
from the rest of the Sioux nation and
the present bill afforded them an OPP
portunity to do so. He charged, IN
| forcibIe terms, that certain ones who
| were opposed to the bill were doing so
FROM selfish motives, that thew were
opposing the best interests of the In
| dians and should not be listened to.
| This created sensation and was heart
lily endorsed by many.
| Judge Wright then addressed the
| Indians. He cited the fact that the Great
| Father had spent double the amount
| on the Sioux since 1868 that was
paid for the immense tract lying be-
tween the Mississippi River and the Pa
cific Ocean and between Canada and
Gulf of Mexico, which was purchased
from France many years ago; that
the government had at all times cared
for the Indians and should now be
needed. The Indians will unmuzzle
their orators tomorrow, and the lndi
cations are decidedly bright for an in
teresting meeting, as speeches Will De
made by both factions. The Indians
