ed in suppressing the Indian outbreak
OF 1857, letters from company CON-
manders descriptive OF battles, and
original letters and copies of letters
that passed between Governor Stevens

Among the most interesting OF the
documents is an autograph letter from
Jefferson Davis, then secretary of war,
to Governor Stevens, expressing the ap-
probation of the war department for
his services in exploring feasible routes
for northern railway.
The letter calls to mind that the
completion of the Northern Pacific rail

discovered the Marias pass and the
Mulan pas, which are now utilized by
the Great Northern and Nrothern Pa.

AN URGENT APPEAL FOR AID.
Acting Gov. Northcott Of Illinois
Asks the People OF His state
to Aid the Flood Sufferers.

Springfield. ILL.,, July 1.-Acting
Gov. W. A. Northcott has issued
proclamation calling upon the people
of the state to render aid to the flood
sufferers along the Mississippi river.
State Treasurer Fred A. Busse is
named to receive all contributions,
which will be distributed by the ad-
iutant general of the state. Gov.
Northcott says: :
The recent foods Of the Missouri
river and it's tributaries have caused
great suffering among our people,
and especially among the farmers an
the counties of Madison, st. Clair,
Monroe, Randolph. Jackson, Union
and Alexander. the crops Of hay, oats
and wheat, which were just ready for
the harvest, being entirely destroyed
in many localities along the river.
Relief has been given in many cases
in the cities and towns, but the farm
ers are still in want. and are in much
need of money to buy seed for re-
planting, such as millet and turnips
and other crops that can mature this
year. Money will also be needed to
| purchase wheat for the fall seeding.
aid, and reliable information shows
great suffering among the farmers at
this time, and a certainty that this
suffering will be much greater in the
| fall and winter. 1t is time for our
people to generously aid their fellow
| citizens.
l. therefore, issue this proclama-
ton, calling upon the people of Hi
nois to forward such aid as their
generosity and charity will dictate
in money to Hon. Fred A. Busse, state
treasurer, at Springfield, ILL.,, and all
moneys received by him will be dis
tributed through the adjutant gen
eral of the state. Seeds for replant-
ing, and clothing and food will be
purchased and distributed to the
needy. 1t is my sincere hope that
our people will generously respond
to this call, and relieve the suffering
humanity at our own doors anc
amongst our own people.
