HARRISBURG, Aug. 25.
My Dear Sir: Iwould be greatly pleased if
Tuesday morning next, the day before the
convention, and would be glad if you would
call upon me as soon as convenient after your
arrival. feel confident that will be able to
convince you that the present contest to be de-
termined by the State convention is not one of
my seeking, that it has been precipitated upon
me and my administration because I refused
to break my pledged word in regard to the APP
portionment OF the State, aud furthermore be-
cause l declined to withdraw my support
from Colonel Gtlkeson for reelection to
the craftsmanship of the State Commit
leaders of the State were for him, and have
not changed my attitude. / am strongly of the
opinion that the best interests of the party will
be served by Colonel Gilkeson's reelection to
the Craftsmanship of the State Committee.
His services to the party in the last two CAM
paigns are the best proof of his ability as
leader. With the kindest regards, ] am, very
truly, yours, DANIEL II. HASTINGS.

BURNS, o., Aug. 25.-A courier from
Diamond Valley reports the killing of tif-
teen Bannocks by cattlemen under the

reason was revenge for the murder of his

and throughout the county. Troop A is
ready to march on short notice and is
awaiting orders from the County Sheriff
for authority to act While particulars
are difficult to OBJ tain it is learned that the
matter has no bearing on the Jacksons
Hole troubles. Ever since Smiths father
was killed in 1878 by warriors of the Ban
mock tribe he has been on their trail and
not few have met death at his hands.
It seems that party OF Indians were on
a summer hunt near Diamond Valley and
killed number of cattle belonging to the
stockmen whose herds pasture in that vi
cinity. A party of cattlemen were organ
lied to punish the marauders and Smith
readily undertook to lead them.
The pursuers located the Indians about
an hour before shutdown at their camp near
the western edge of the valley and without
warning opened fire on them. The Indian
bucks were thrown into panic and fed
for the hills, the squaws following suit.
The stockmen pursued them and fired
volley at the fugitives, dropping several
of them, including one or two squaws.
The nursr1it was not continued the cattle
men believing sufficient punishment had
been inflicted.
The courier reports fifteen dead Indians
after this one-sided battle.
