To THE Ep1roR THE TINES:
After the delay .will try to fulfill
my promise.
Our journey from HALEY to Ellens-
burg wa. by way of Portland and
from there on the N. P. r. r. through
the Puget Sound country and across,
or rather through, the Cascades to the
beautiful valley Of Kitti,as. By the
way, the Northern Pacific railroad
through these mountains is q marvel
of modern civil engineering. 1t was
a master. brain that planned. All
this region of country seems to throb
and pulsats with life and energy;
plenty and prosperity on every hand.
In the flash of the recent great ma
tional victory the people of this Ter
ritory are alive to their opportunity
and active measures are being taken
to give us the boon of Statehood at
the earliest hour. A convention with
Representatives from each county is
already called to meet in Ellensburg
on the 3rd of January to provide for
a Constitutional Convention and other
matters pertaining to the question Of
admission. The citizens OF this city
feel quite sanguine that Ellensburg
will be the future seat of our State
government. l. has many points in
its favor, being situated quite pear
the geographical center of the Terri.
tory and in one of the richest and
most beautiful valleys in the Great
Northwest. Possessing soil unsur-
passed in fertility, surrounded by
mountains that are covered with a
fine growth OF timber, the valleys
threaded with an abundance OF streams
suitable for all purposes, vast mount
aims of iron ore, extensive fields Of
coal, and rich mines of gold and sill
!, yer, all within a radius of 40 miles Of
Ellensburg, with no possible riva
within 40 mile. Of this place, makes
it an important point.
The business men here seem t.
have much Of the same push, public
spirit and energy that has Away
characterized the business men o
HALEY. When the N. P. r. r. frs
reached the Eittitas valley, a littl
more than two years ago, this was
s little burgh of less than 500 inhabi'
, ants. To-day it has more than 800
and is steadily growing. The busi

erection are first class and either brio

q a fine three.story brick hotel. 1t ha

tenement houses to supply the d.
mand. Rents are high and the pric
of real estate seems almost fabulous
o to me. For example,: The Trustee

THE WAR DANCE AND EMERY.
4 Deer Greek Group Which Is Making
. Wonderful Showing.

From all accounts the War Dance and
Emery group, situated near the head of
beer Creek, is making splendid show
Ing. Three distinct ore-chutes are ex-
posed, and the indications point to the
existence Of one or two more in the
ground. In the War Dance there is in
sight chute 800 feet long, and carrying
from one to seven feet of solid galcna.
and which is shown to extend in depth
for at least 20 feet. In the Emery there
are two chutes Of ore about Is feet in
length, each, and which seem likely to
extend to great depth. A deep tunnel
is being driven to develop the group.
This tunnel is expected to cut the vein
in April or May, and when the lateral
branches to be run are connected the
group will, II the ofc-chutes extend to
that depth, give employment to a large
number of men. Even at present the
owners could, if they wished, keep 40 or
80 men steadily at work on ore for an
indefinite period.
The owners are Messrs. Burns, of
HALEY, and Flannery, of Deer Creek.

ELECTION METHODS.

They Should BE Above Suspicion
and Every Elector Permitted to
Cast Free Ballot and Have 1t
Counted.
Our civil compact is government by
majOritieS, and the law loses its sane
ton and the magistrate our respect
when this compact is broken. The
evil results of election frauds do not eX-
pend themselves upon the voters who
are robbed of their rightful influence in
public affairs. The Individual or COM
munity or party that practices or con-
niveS at election frauds has suffered lr-
reparable injury, and will sooner or
later realize that to exchange the Amer
lean system of majority rule for minor
ity control is not only unlawful and un-
patriotic, but very unsafe for those who
promote it. The diSfranchisement OF a
single legal elector by fraud or intimida-
ton is crime too grave to be regarded
lightly. The right of every qualified
elector to
CAST ONE FREE BALLOT
and to have it honestly counted must
not be questioned. Every constitutional
power should be used to make this
right secure and to punish frauds upon
the ballot. Our colOred people do not
ask special legislation in their interest,
but only to be made secure in the COM
mon rights of American citizenship.
They will, however, naturally mistrust
the sincerity of those party leaders who
appeal to their race for support only in
those localities where the suffrage is
free and election results doubtful, and
compass their disfranchisement where
their votes would be controlling and
their choice cannot be cOerced.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Sept. 1.-THE
following is Gen. Harrison's letter of
acceptance addressed to Hon. NJ. NJ.
Estee and others, committee:
Gentlemen: When your committee
visited me on the 4th of July last and
presented the official announcement of
my nomination for the presidency of
the United States by the Republican
convention, l promised as soon as
practicable to communicate to you a
more formal acceptance of the nOmina-
ton. Since that time the work of re-
celving and addressing almost daily
large delegations of my fellow citizens
has not only occupied all of my time,
but has in some measure rendered it
unnecessary for me to use this letter as
a medium of communicating to the
public my views upon the questions in
volved in the campaign. l appreciate
very highly the confidence and respect
manifested by the convention, and ac-
cept the nomination with a feeling of
gratitude, and a full sense of the re-
sponsibilities which accompany it.

Fort Smelling, and will be posted on the
high ground to the westward of
the fair grounds. When the en-
gagement begins this army Will
debouch from the woods in that
direction. The engagement will open
by sharp contest between the cavalry
vldettes OF the army under Gen. Mar
shall and the mounted skirmishers
thrown out from Gen. MaS0n's force.
The infantry, both in skIrmiSh order
and in line of battle, supported by artil-
lery from Gen. MarshalI's force, will
attack the position held by Gen. Mason's
army. This attack will be fiercely re-
pulsed. The army of the Blue will re-
tire, closely pressed by the OPP
posing force. The cavalry will

OF both armies. During truce which
will intervene about this time the
wounded will be gathered from the field
and cared for in a temporary field hos
pitak When hostiIities are renewed

engagement attempts will be made by
the opposing forces to dislOdge its
enemy. The engagement will close
by the respective army commanders
agreeing upon an armiStice for one
year, and the bands on both sides will

tails for this engagement will exhibit
