RAPIDEB.

Wilts the First, Last and Only Choice of theParish,

ATuXANPDUIA, Sept. 28, 1879.To the E!litor of the Demoot at:

I have for some time contemplated writinga few lines irom this section of the countryfor your valuable paper, knowing that youwould be pleased to hoar from old Itapides,once the banner parish of the State. No onein this stctlon is green enough to oven thinkthat Lient. Gov. Wilts will be defeated for the Inominatidn of Governor at the Batomn ougeconvention. He is certainly the choice of Ita-pldes, and had the Ogdenltes (few In number Iand some of them awfully solf-opinlonate) 1thought that they were in a majority at themeeooting on last Saturday, they would haveunhesitatingly moved that the delegates be iinstructed to vote for Mr. Ogden. I am morethan oe"taln that some of his henchmen wereeven on the move of trying to break up our iharmonious meeting, and would have givenit a trial but for the large opposition that Ithey saw facing them. They knew that the cmajority of the assemblage favored Louis A, I

WltsN, and they were also aware of the fact ithat he must receive the support of Rphides.

Our people hold in the highest regard andesteem Pred. N. Ogden, but do not think thathis election at this time would give satisfac-tion. We want no Conservative. Our choicemust and shall be a true and tried Democrat.

Your valuable Jiurnal is gaining strength tdaily, and the New Orleans Times, whichseems to have taken the place of the defunctRlepublican, s1 an enemy not only to theDemnocratlc party buht the whole white race.

Rapider' choice Is Wilts first, last and al-ways. PINAro3Lt.

TILE INDIANS.

Further Particulars of the RecentIndian Outbreak at Milk River.

The Cause of the Trouble-The IndiansBurn the iorests--They are Sup-

plied With Whisky and

Arms by the Agents.

WAeHINnTON, )ot. 8..--8ome additional in-formation regarding the recent Indian out-break was obtained at the Indian Bureau to-day. it appears that In July last Gov. Pltkintelegraphed the Seetetary of the Interiorthat the Indians were burning tit iber, andstated that if they were not immediatelystopped by the government the citisens ofColorado would undertake to stop them.Secretary Schurs immediately dispatchedAgent Meeker to call on the Indians engagedin this work to desist, and if necessary tosecure military aseeistance. The idea of theIndians in burning the timer, it is said,was to concentrate the game in order that itmight be killed with less difloulty, AgentMeeker, however, succeeded only temporarilyIn stopping the destruction of the woodland,antd esbsequontly, in the same month, a partyof Utes destroyed, in the vicinity of MiddlePark, together with a tract of timber on someproperty belonging to one J. B. Thompson.For the purpose of arresting the indians en-gaged in the destruction of Thompson'sproperty, Gov. Pitkin dispatched the sheriffwith a posse to White river agency. ChiefDounlass, of the Wnlte rivet UtJe, protestedagainst their entering the agency, which wasr.'ported to the Indian Bureau, Agent Meekerwas then instructed to cause the arrest of theguilty parties, and, in attempting to carryout this order, he incurredl the ill-will of tileIndians engaged in the firing of Thumpson'sI property.

It is said at the Indiah Department thatthe country north of the Colorado reservationIe very desirable for farnming and grazingpur pooses and is thickly settled; that theindians for three and feor years past havebeen in the habit of leaving their reservation,which caused conasderable annoyance to seot-tiers, particularly on Snake and Bear rivers.'T'here are many lawless persons In that vicin-ity who for years have carried on a brisktrade with the Indiana, supplying them withwhleky and ammunition, which has been thecause of constant complaints to the Indianoffll,. Deoredations have also been commit-ted by the Inldiana along the valleys of therivers referred to.

In the fall of 1877 Agent Danforth visltedthat country in connectlon with Lt. Parker, ofthe Ninth Cavalry, with a view to the adop-tion of measures to protect the settlers andbreak up the unlawful traffic. They reportedin Heptember, 1877, that it was necessary toestabitih a military post there; that this Iwould keep the Indians on their reservation, Ihe sure to protect the oettleor and break upthe unlawful trade referred to. On the nine*teenth of that month oopies of their reportswere received by the Interior Departmentfwith the recommendation that the War De- 1

partment he requested to take action in thematter. The Interior Department concurred IIn this reconmmendation and referred the mat-ter to the War Department, by whiab thisrecommendation we roejeted. Since then abitter t•eilrw manifested by the settlersagainst the lndians has been intenslfled. Ctol-llelons have taken Diace and teie trade Inwhisky and ammunition has Inoreased, andwithin the past few months has boen verybrisk,TI1E LATEST FROM TnHOtNDUROH'5 COMMAND.
