Robbery. About three o'clock
OH Thursday morning, some party
or parties bioke a pane of glass in
the show-window of John Schmeer's
grocery 6tore, on corner of Ells
worth and First streets, and ab
stracted from said window a num
ber ot bottles of bitters. The Mar
bal followed a trail made by two
persons, which led toward the In
dian rancherie, and suvceded in
finding a broken bottle and, soon
after, an Indian, who was very
drunk, whom he arrested. He also
arrested au Irishman who was un
der the "influence." There are a
large number of Indians prowling
about the city, who are of no earthly
use here, and who should be placed
on the reservations. We have
called the attention of the proper
authorities to the matter from week
to week, but thus far no attention,
has bees paid to the matter. The
agents seem to feel it to be their
duty to draw their pay and rations
and let the Indians look after them
selves. Snob agents are of no more
value than the lazy Si washes, and
should be kicked out ot office at
once.
Thb
Big Warkhousf.. The
splendid warehouse- now in course j
of completion by Messrs. Morris fc
Parker in this city, will attract the
attention of producers for the rea
sons that the internal arrangements
of the building will be so complete
that the grain can be handled easily
and in so short a time ; the great
capacity, holding as it will, two
hundred thousand bushels ; its great
solidity and strength, insuring it
against any mishaps from overload
ing, and its thorough and complete
arrangements for rapidly cleaning
and preparing grain for market.
The gentlemanly proprietors are
well known in this community, and
would be well patr nized even did
not their warehouse ofier so many
advantages to the farming eommu
nity. See their advertisement else,

question of deep plowing has found
many advocates among agricultur-
ists ot late years, and yet probably
as a rule shallow plowing has been
the practice of a great majority of
the firming community. Many
newspaper columns have been
written to prove that both theories
wwe correct nnd toV t,,ere 8
doubtless as many believers in one
,, , . r
ttieorj as the other. However, it
I was not our intention when we sit
dawu to jien this article, to offer
arguments in proof of oirt'' theory.

office 01) Tuaadav. bv one of our

The Canal will probably averago

runs, for three-quarters ot a mile,
through his oat and wheat fields,

i several feet, where the soil is com-
posed of the clay thrown out of the
bottom of the Cial a distance of
at least four feet from the grass
roots, the wheat and oat stalks
like hazels-, some of them being an
inch and a half in circumference,
and iu highth tower away above
the balance of the crop that has not
had the benefit of this new soil.
The stalks are not only large and
. . ,
strong, but the heads are trorn
foot to eighteen inches in length,
and the grain much larger than any
to be fouud elsewhere iu the fields.
For such grain as this it is calcti -
lated thai a yield of one hundred
bushels per acre would be a small
crop.
Re Careful. Ab we have no
nightwatch at present, there is noth
ing to hinder any who may choose
to do so wandering through our
stieets and alleys during the still
hours of night Indians, large num
bers of whom infest the city, We am
told are to be found perambulating
the city at all hours of night, ou
the look out for something to get
away with. Our citizens should
be careful about leaving their
clothes-lines hanging full of ciotli
ing to tempt the cupidity of thus
children ot the forest; should see
that their kitchen doors and win
dows are properly secured, leaving
nothing in sight to tempt the na
tive American to do a wrong. A
great deal of the petty thieving
here and elsewhere is chargable to
the carelessness of people in leaving
articles laying around loose which
attract the attention and cupidity
of the keen eyed Siwashes.

Fikst Wheat. The first wheat
ot this season came from Judge
Thornton's late farm, now owned
by J. W. Shattuck, just across the
river in Benton county, consisting
of two loads, brought in on Wed
nesday and stored in Morris & Par-
ker's new warehouse.

Goon, Yield. - Mrs. Judge
Thayer, ot Benton county, has just
had harvested ninety acres of fall
wheat, ou her farm six or seven
mites from this city, which averages
about thirty bushels per acre.. She

though there are quite a number

an early market. Those who
, . re e r racKs ana stomge room
l M?. 'H not regret it. While
, Vl
satisfactory, the price may not prove
great maionty of our people to
people
expect and demand a much higher
price than dealers at present deem
safe to offer. One dollar per bushel
is a good round price foe wheat,
and many of our farmers declare
that they will not sell a pound for
less, and as many of them are able
to hold it, we believe they will do
so, unless prices shall advance to
the figure demanded by them.
Freights to Europe are ruling some
what lower than last year, and the
price for average Pacific coast
wheat in Liverpool is exactly the
same as it was a year ago. Prices
at Liverpool being the same and
charters being at least no higher
than then, the inquiry is pertinent
why can not dealers pay the
same price now as then ?
