the .scandal. Tho only public answer that
was ever made to the story was the an
nouncement th.it Ida Wilcox was coming
home to be married, lier future husband

A fascinating young married woman of
my acquaintance tells a quaint littlo experi
ence ot hers while sojourning as a brand
new bride in a new Colorado town. She had
in her uossesion a pair of black kid
lovo, which turned out to be the only pair
in camp. Besides settling the question of
her social standing Tight from the start, this
fact caused her to be the recipient of many
fluttering little attentions from tho matron's
of the camp, who did not know how soon
they might need tbc loan of thco emblems
of mortality.
Society in the camp was mixed and some
what unconventional. On her Hint appear
ance on Sunday before the eyes of the shared
and shining camp, the black kids made their
appearance out of due respect for the day.
On Tttcsdav she had a feminine caller, whb.
after introducing herself, and beating about
the bush a little, asked 4,if she could lend
her the loan of the gloves." alleging as a
reason that her husband had been stabbed
in the hack that morning. The gloves were
loaned, aim returned with zealous care at
the close of the obsequies.
Thatlirst 3'onr m camp was a hard one on
deputy bhenfTs, and five several times did
the lorn relicts of these officers come to her
entreating the loan of those black kid gloves
to war at their husbands' funerals. And
each time they came back a trifle more
stretched and more frayed out than before,
until filially she left oil wearing them at-all
herself and devoted thcai entirely to camp
burying'.

Are the Indians, as sonic scy. diminifih:ng
yoar by year? And'v.'Ut the time' speedily
come when the whole land will l as free or
them as Massachusetts is to-day?
Ttso years ago the writer made this answer
to similar inquiries: "It is pleasant Tor their
friend'; and the I nends of humauity to dis
cover by actual conn Li that they are not
ttiminwbing."
True, like certain Danish and Celtic clans
that once migrated from pUco to place on
Uritish soil, and then vanished from history,
many Indian tribes have disappeared; oth
ers, like Anglo-American households, have
diminished till hut few scattered mimes re
main to mart tho strange wjys of a s,trango
people.
Cochise, tho Apaehe rhiefj shortly before
his death, said: " The whites bean. n war
cverv lndfan kill?.r hut l iv Veon'e Vow
Fvery inaian muwj, out m peop.c g.on
vith me rears ago. I have slain ten lor
iesand lea,;. jw,nt neace." A few such
"warlike tribes, as above intimated Jiavc been
altogether or nevly exterminated, bitt other
large, tribes hive incrcafted; some greatly
and same bat little.
Yith few oxccsrio'. tho Iudians of the
United states have been-gathered upon por

called Indian reservations, dot the United

kept outride. 3Ianv white people who live
neighbors to the Indians regard the land of
tun- TmlimiR xrith n vro diffirnnt f.mlii.o.
from -pimt they would if white men owned
Each reservation has an agent, a white
man appointed by the president. This agent
is virtually a Xing of a small kingdom. He
has white emplojes, such ns the farmer,
teacher, blacksmith and doctor; they consti
tute his counselors of state, fcomctimes he
adds to" bis governing force three Indian
judges aud tcu or twelve Indian 'policemen.
Thu-i we r-cc that with to many white men
among them, it is easier than formerly for
us to number the Indians. Hot many years
ao theeouutmg was done by army officers
add other government officials: they simply
eslimated the number of tribes and individ
nals; it was when the uations were more
nomadic than at pre-ent;-ihen tribes were
ever changing their habitation ; when they
had to move great distances to supply their
wants; when the buffalo, a thousand or
more in a herd, roamed over our vast prai
nes.
Writers Tor papers or magazines of thnt
time guessed at the population or referred
to the incomplete ostiinatesr In our time a
correct census has been taken and the re
sults put down. From a careful study of
llu-3ercports.it is evident thnt now Ibefln.-dians-,
as a whole, like -xhe negroes of the
bouth, are increasing.
Thirty years ago there were several causes
which earned oil the Indians; among these
Were contagious diffuses, which the white
people unintentionally broughtamong them.
Sad indeed were the ravages-of the smallpox
and the measles.
That dreadful "Whitman massacre, not far
from Walla "Walla, where a band of mls
.sionaries were savagely murdered, doubt
less resulted from the simultaneous incomo
ot missions and measles, .the mejslcs was
then a inv disease. The Indians imputed

The medicine men did not know what to
prescribe. Thetitdden cold bath after the
neat of a wcat house was followed by
death. Herbs and extracts, hitherto effica
cious in aikness, gave no relief. So, like
white-people under yellow lever and cholera,
being unable tc stay the hand of the de
stroyer, multitudes of the race miserably
perished. Who, onder fcuch harrowing dis
tress, wonders at their superstitious folly
and horrid resentment?
But now Indians have more knowledge.
There are good reservation doctors or army
surgeons near at hand. Contagion and epi
demic are luct at the threshold and frustrat
ed. There Ls no sweeping of men, women
and children, from these causes, into un
timely graves.
Another desolating scourge has ceased.
There are no longer Indian wars. Those
fierce tribal conflicts, merciless and long-continuing,
having passed away. Once the Chip
pewa w.i taught to hate the Dakota, and
the Dakota Ure turn the feeling with inter
est. The Niz Perce detested the Snake,
and the Snake gave the hunters of the Nez
Perce no rest. Thus, like France and
England in olden times, each nation had il3
hereditary enemy. Tribes combined to
fight other tribes and often fought lo cslcr
mination. People who hold to the "vanishing."'
theory declare that Indians do not thrive
on the white man's food, and great losses
arc claimed from this fruitful source. The
contrary is nearer the truth. Assooreasr
they catch the white man's regularity of
supply, of preparation and. eating, taking as
we do two or three meals every day, they
are healthier than when they weiit two or
three days without food, and then, like gour
mands, gorged themselves; healthier than
when they seizei upon animals that had
died, and to satisfy the cravings of false ap
petites, consumed'tbc poisonous flesh.

It will be observed" that Colonel McKec's
horse aud his other property are mentioned
bel'orc-his own. valuable life, so that the
value of tho horse and the other property
must urst uc arrivtu at nelore tlie value set
on the colonel can be ascertained. As the
colonel was a Kentucky colonel, it is fair to
presume that the hore' was :u Kentucky
horse aud that Mrs, McKee was a KeutucEy
woman. Kentucky women urc known to
set a high value on horses of the blue grass
cou.itry, but this is tho tirst known case
where one of them has placed a horse and
a husband 111 such juxtaposition- as to indi
cate her estimate of their relative value.
She seems to have first thought of claiming
indemnity for the loss of the horse and then
to have thrown in the colonel as an after
thought, with a view, possibly, to securing
the odd ?200. This was the Kentucky view
of the mailer before the winning of the Ken
tucky derby by Spokane had caused a de
preciation in the value of Kentucky h discs.

muu!i:ailr.u is found in tho importance of its sub
jec, wktoh directly and intimately cmcerns the
well beincol the great majority of the people of
the new stato of Washington.
Let me f,t enumerate certain facts'.

The qnejtlon of. theproper mode of r.dndntster
iug tlclnud grants referred to isnotberenudcr
review. It limy bepresuiacd Ihal there Is a unan
imous coiivletion of the importance of properly
guaniing the interests of the people in the inan
agmcut cf this mcgnitleeut enuowineur.
foraa din'creuee of opinion, however, mararlse
as to thu i-ropor dUpos.il of the revenue accruing
from thee lands. On gronmlsof public policy,
it Is my com ietionth.it the proceeds of both these
grants should be employed ni provide a system of
lechuci.il- instruction for thac cuAged In iudUE
trinl pu.-sults.
Tl-e Agriculture college grrtnt was undoubtedly
raade with this Intention. The language of the
r.ct is quite uncqnivccRl. "The leading-object
thail lw .. ..to teach n:eh branches of lcariung
as aro related to agriculture and the jncclianlc
arts in order to promots the liberal and prac
tical education of tho industrial classes."
IIrs not tlie grant ot one hundred thousand acres
"for the I'ltabllshmeni and nraluteiianeeota sci
entific schoni" Wen niirde with, a like- iuteution?
If on Institution of higher learn ng claims, state
support It ousht to justify that claim by proving
tha' It performs public functions and produces
puM.c bertefit. To train the citizen to utilize the
nauiral n-soureesor the state is a most import
ant public function and it results in a great pub
lic benefit. Hut to provide scientific Instruction
at state expense lo Isolated f ndh iduals whose
sole claim is that their tastes lie in the direction
of scientific f-tudy is not thus justified.
A scientific school, established and maintained
at the expense of tho government, uoeds uo apol
osy for it existence when it fonas au integral
vortlou of a stale system of tcccnlc-l instruction.
'or that atlnr at training men iu tae application

tier.1 in- their ultimate aim, coniiderr.tions of
economy cud efficicncr show the rropilotv of
hariug the revenues aecmtiu; from them ad
miuisered, nor by a dual,buT-hy a single control.
A school i agKeulture and the mechanic arts Is
to all intents and purposes a scientific school.
The latter, tho grea'er. maudea the firmer, the
lers.
There is a radical difference In the trnxlo of
training pursued hi a school of nelcncs from that
followed in other educational institutions.
"In the case of all physical sciences, sound and
thorough knowledge is only to ha obtained by
practical work In the laboratorv." This is the
dictum cf Prof. Huxley, whose judgment on tuch
a point will be g' nerally accepted as final. But
the efficient equipment of laboratories is a costly
ofnilr, their costhncas indeed forming a strong
r.rgumcnt for the ntato Intervening to provids
them. Further, it should be borne in mind that
phyricnl Icboratoric, chemical laboratories and
blolog Cftl Icboratoritsonco equipped can be made
equally ftrviceable to the student cf aimcultnre,
of mining, or of engineering, and the state Bhonld
not be pkco to duplicate nistliuticas unneces
sarily. So obvious au argument needs no elabora
tion. I venture to offer two practical suggestions:
1. Tlie appointment of tnrcc corirabidoners of
teebuical Instruction, who shall have full control
of h"1 machinery devised to meet the needs ol
the state in that matter.
i. Ihe cstabllsh-jieiit cf a Stte Normal School

ltght-plant; a tea year franchise having been
grunted at the- last meeting 6f the city
council in the Ea Grande l-Muon Elcclrie
Company. The terms of tho franchise
stipulate that work shall be commenced
within thirty days, and the plant completed
and ready for opuration within six
months. Thu company is incor
poraticd aud the stock is principally he-Id
by parties outside of Li Grande. The sys
tem will employ all of the latest Edison
patents, aj;d tue company has the exclusive
' right to .use all of Edison's patents within
the city uf La Grande. The cost of the sys
tem completed in operation will be ?15,jy,
'and will be provided with S03 lights on the
stare Steam engines of Jifty-horse power
will bJ used for generating the electric cur
rent. Mr-Kerr, manager of-the comp'any,
state3 that tue work will be rushed to nn
early completion, and it 13 expected that the
system will be ready for opcr-riion inside or
fourmontlisT aiui-cousiderc it very probahle
that the capacity wilihave to be doubled in
iide ol two years.
The city conneil made another move in
the line of progress at its last nieotiiig in
voting; bcnds-10. the amount ol ?2u,000- bear
ingO net cent. mterestr payable semi-annually,
for tlm construction of water works.
The urgent need of a betterxsupply has. long
been felt in La Grande, and the members of
the council hava shown a progressive spirit
in taking the matter in hand in a way-that
must soon leoult in having thi3 great need
supplied.
The pre-cnt water system has not a sufti- r
cient supply to property turiiisn tno town.
The president of the present system, which
ra put in a couple of years ago, is expected
from Culitoruia in a few day.-, with the nec
essary apparatus for boring an artesian well.
If he is successful in this experiment, it is
expected that the present supply, which
comes from mountain springs, will be suffi
ciently reinforced to fu'rni-h all the water
that is needed. A t any rate, the water ques
tion, which ha" been one of vital importance
to the town, is destined to become f uily
settled inside of a few months.
The La Grande postmaster registers a kick
over the tardiness with which supplies arc
furnished him. Ilisrcgularreqnisilion up to
this year has been for 20,000 tw o-ccnt stamps
per quarter, but during the past few mouths
.he has been eomoelled to-increase his order.
During the first twenty days of this mouth
his stamp sales amounted to ?1S0, and he is
now out of that necessary article. The in
dications are that the receipts of the office
during the current year wiil iarjjciy exceed
the amount of last year, during which time
the La Grande postofiice showed a greater
proportional increase of business than any
of the ten other presidential offices in .the
state. """
The annual meeting and election of the
Li Grande Building and Loan Association,
was held ttiis week. The election resulted
in thc-re-instalementof theold boardVof offi
cers. Tlie association is now two years: old;
it has GJ0 shares subscribed and has queued
the fifth series. It has mortgage ioans
amounting to .?I.T,000, and the value "of
shines in the first series is estimated at $30.
ihe association has been very successfully
managed, and has been the means of aiding
a large number of people lo secure homes of
their own. The Li Grande association-is
based on the s-ame method of operation as
the Franklin Building and Loan Assop.'ation
of Portland.
Tbc assessment roll of Union, county for

The North Pacific elevator has been ship
ping large quantities of grain during the
past few days. Last week the clevaior was
filled to its utmost capacity something over
00.000 bushels.
The railroad' company received six more
new engines this week, designed for use in
tho passenger service op the mountain di
vision. They will be overhauled and made
ready for useat the La Grande siiopa. It is
apparent that tho agreement by the Oregon
Short Line that the O. it. & N.'s motive
power should be increased, is being faithful
ly complied with.
At tha last meeting of the council the
grading- and improving; orone of the resi
dence streets was ordered- to be completed
Within ninety days.. The cost of the pro
pcicd. improvement jvill reacn shout ?R,OQ0.
A subscription was started this week foe
subscriptions, of stock" in an agricultural
society' to the amount of $15,000. The-pro-ject
is nieetiug with flattering encourage
ment among the farmers. Union county
certainly has a sufficient population and va
riety of resources, to maintain an interest
in: and profitable agricultural society.
The vastly increased freightbusincss ut La
Grande has made it necessary to put on a
night yard engine and an additional crew.
The last meeting, of tho board of trade was
unanimous on the proposition of raising
53000. to put with an equal amount to be fur
nished by the Methodist Episcopal confer
ence, for the completion'of the university
building and the establishment of a school
therein. The proposition from the confer
ence stipulates that the amount shall be
available by the 1st or next May.

It is a common saying among the people
that "the Snake river carries water enough
lo irrigate ail the land in the yaltcy." The
reaultofthe small amount of work which
the survey has been able to accomplish this
summer proves this statement to be far
from correct. During the-nionth of August,
the volume of water passing Eagle rock in
the Snake river averages less than 3000 cubic
feet per second, which allowing four acres
-to the miners-'incli (the usual allowance Is-
said to be one or two acres, though actually
itisr muck more), this amount of water wilt
suffice for the- trrigRtion - of only GOO.0C0
acres; The exact amount of land in the
Snake river valloy: susceptible of being irri
gated with water from Suake river cannot
be ascertained till next year, but enough is
known of the area to warrant the statement
that it will be several millions of acre?.
Tho work of tho survey this year has been
to ascertain what facilities existed for tho
storage of water to irrigate the are.t unpro
vided for by the natural ilow of the river,
and also to see how much land could be irri
gated. It has been found during the examinations
this summer that remarkable facilities exist
for the cheap storage of water on the upper
tributaric-3 ot Snake nver. So that it is con
sidered perfectly safe to say that a sufflctency
of water can be stored to irrigate the several
millions of ccrc3 a; a cost which is not pro
hibitory. Afavorab'c reservoir site requires, abso
lutely certain conditions.
First A country d ruining into it of suffi
cient area to Insure the Cihng of the reser
voir every year.
Second It must not be so largeini.ro
portion to capacity as to have the evapora
tion become a large factor of the waste.
Third The dam.must be of reasonable di
mensions, and the matena's for its con
struction wi'.nin convenient reach.
Fourth. The location must he such that
a solid rock foundation can he oblaiiied for
a Waste weir.
Just hi ppooorticn as Ih'ese conditions are
not fulfilled, .ue expense increases. Wnat
has been suiu here shows tho importance
and value of the great work undertaken by
the government.
