AT,BAXY, OREGON', MARCH 30, 1877.
The Montana Legislature has chang
er) the name of the Little Big Horn
river to Custer river, in memory of the
brave cavalry leader who met bis death
on its banks.
During the coming four years there
will be no cipher telegraphic correspon
dence conducted between the White
House and any other portion of the
country, near or remote.
Oold doesn't behave aa it it thought
1 fayes accession to the Presidency was
going to harm the country. Our re
ppcct for that usetul metal liaa been
much increased by its late performan
ces. It is deporting itself in a highly
patriotic and commendable manner.
The President, it is announced, be
lieves that neither Packard or Nicholls
-were legally elected Governor of Loui
siana, and will probably insist on a new
-election. .
On the evening of the 27th, in a
shooting affray at Topeka, Kansas, be
tween J. Clarke Swayue, editor ot the
Blade, and John Wureson, formerly of
the Topeka Times, Sway no was shot
-dead.
I The Salt Lake Tribune states that a
''lot ot idiots are building up a settle
ment in Southern Utah called Order
ville. They dress in gunny sacks and
are driven around -like so many cattle
by a Bishop of the Mormon church."
Geneva (Switzerland) papers some
times contain authentic and delicious
bits of American information like this,
culled from an Alpine sheet : "It is no
longer denied that President Lincoln
was murdered by General Grant,"
John D. Lee, the great Mormon El
der and principal actor in the Moun
tain Meadow massacre, suffered the
penalty of his crimes on Friday last,
near the scene of the massacre. He
died as he has lived, a fanatic. He has
written a confession, so it is reported
and given it to the District Attorney,
with the request to have it published
' after his death.
Orders have been given for all the
cavalry at Fort Shaw, and other posts,
fto immediately join Gen. Brisbin, at
Fort Ellis, and that Gen Brisbin, with
the cavalry aud all the transportation
at his disposal, are ordered and are
making rapid preparations to report to
Gen. Mile6, at his camp on Tongue riv
er. . The belief is current that this indi
ates a forward movement against the
Indians, and that preparations are made
to strike a telling blow.
POLITICAL PORKERS.
Pelton This-little pig went to mar

home.
Cronin This little pig had a roast
beef.
Grover This little pig had none.
Patrick This little pig cries " Wee,
wee, I can't find my way home."

The confession of Eph Holland rela
tive to the Democratic frauds in Cin
cinnati accounts directly for over 500
fraudulent votes, enough to oust Ban
ning and nearly every Democrat in of
fice in the county. He testifies that he
was engaged as a matter of business by
Banning, Wallace and ether Democrat,
ic leaders to get votes by whatever
means necessary, and he got them.
Thousands ot dollars were furnished
him, and he disbursed the money among
repeaters from New York, Chicago and
Pittsburg. His confession has made a
startling sensation in Cincinnati. There
is much disappointment expressed be
cause Holland refuses to give the names
of the Democrats in the East who fur
nished the money.
It is thought possible that England
want of decision may bring on a terri
ble war in the East, when, it she had
acted promptly and as reason and hu
manity dictated, the matter would have
been settled without bloodshed. The
London Times says that the English
Government has done nothing, promise,
nothing, and exhibits only distrust and
condemnation ot Russia. This being
the case the two countries have gradu.
ally assumed such a petition of tnug.'
onism that they are regarded on the
continent as two rivals in a great con
troversy, which may develop into a
great conflict. If Russia has
ent reasons of her own lor not wishing
s war, there will probably be no war
but ministers and ambassadors are at
the "end of their row." It there is a
war them will be a great war, and it
may not stop until one or more of the
present Government! are entirely des
' troyed from the earth

THE YAKIMA RESERVATION.
The Bee says the treaty with the Inr
dians by which fortj townships ot splen
did farming land in the Yakima valley,
"W Ti are set off to the said Indians,
will expire in 1879 in two years
and as there are probably not two hun
dred Indians at present making use of
this splendid reservation, it is hoped it
will eitbsr be thrown open or greatly
reduced in size. The valley would ac
commodate a large number of farmers
with prolific taims. Forty townships
is equal to a tract ten miles wide and
sixty miles long, and contain 921,600
acres of land; which would provide
eighty-acre tracts for 11,520 settlers.
The Indians who now occupy, or rather
prevent others from occupying, these
lands could be easily removed to other
reservations, and the valley which is
now so desolate would soon become a
garden of farms.
RUSSIA BUYS PLOWS.
Ore ot the most noticeable ot recent
occurrences is the purchase of ten thous
and American plows by the Russian
Government to be distributed among
the farmers of Russia. Southern Rus
sia has hitherto supplied what is called
the Black Sea trade, with wheat, being
much nearer the market than we are,
which gave them the advantage. I But
American wheat has displaced the Rus
sian wheat to a great extent in the En-
glish market, so much so that the Rus
sian farmer has to exert himself to hold
even a portion of the trade. This has
stirred the Russian Government up to
use more diligence, and the plows have
been secured hoping they will enable
the Russian farmers to produce wheat
more cheaply than Jieretofore, and thus
compete with American producers.
Says a Columbus, Ohio, biographer
of President Hayes : "He is large, ro
bust and muscular, quick, but not nerv
ous of movement or speech. His voice
is a deep, strong, musical bass. His
eyes are large, blue and kindlv ot ex
prestiion. He wears his sandy beard
full and carefullv trimmed, here and
there in it you notice a gray hair, as
you do also in his full suit of closely cut
brown hair. His form is full, but not
corpulent ; hia teeth are white as ivory,
and h:s features strong and wtll lo
fined. Ilis life has been so pure and re-
proacn:ess mat all goou men and wo
men resnect him. He never hsps tnhnrv.
co or intoxicating liquors. He never
uses proianu language, lie is candid,
open, affable, and has no secret j noth
ing to explain, nothing to refute, i His
character is above suspicion, even after
6ix bitter political campaigns m Ohio."
AGREED AS TO BIS GUILT.
General Nesmith says he does not
doubt Senator Grover's guilt tor one
moment, but he doubts whether the
necessary proof will be brought forward
to convict him.
W. H. Smit, Esq., of Harrisburg,
has asserted time and again of late, in
the most public manner, that he is able
to prove to the satisfaction of any com
mittee that Grover bought his way into
the Senate.
There seems to be no disagreement
among Democrats or Republicans as to
the guilt ot Grover. All believe him
guilty, but not a few are fearful that
the testimony will be insufficient to con
vict. We shall see what we shall see.
Wait.
The Queen apple woman of the
streets of New York is dead. She left
a little estate ot nearly $3,000, and pro
vided in her will for a nice "wake,"
and a funeral as fine as the heart could
desire, with a hearse drawn by four
gray horses and a long line of carriages
for mourners. All of which provisions
have been fulfilled.
French Revenge. A man has just
buried his wife. Six years aero be de
tected her committing a sin. He never
pardoned ber, but condemned her to
live with him, and since then he has
ever worn clothes of tho same material
and cut as those worn by her paramour.
In this costume he took his walks
abroad with his wife. The unfortunate
woman died of a broken heart, and her
husband followed the hearse clad in a
yellow costume.
Mr. Cate, of Wisconsin, is the man
who called the anti-filibusters in the
House cowards. And this is what the
Milwaukee Sentinel says about him :
Cate talks a great deal, but he isn't to
blame ; it's a habit he acquired when he
was a barber."

the properties of which are stimulating andi
healing, and especially adapted to the
wants of tlie system in case of Lung dis
ease and Rheumatism.
The high estimate which the Spanish"
placed upon it on account of its medicinal
qualities is manifest Irom tho name they
gave to it, many ye-rs ago Yerbasanta,.
or "Herb of the Saint." The natives ot
Snutlern Oregon and Northern California
have used it immemorial! as a Rheumatic
remedy. Tlie white population in the re
gion where it grow hive used and prlzedt
it as a throat and lung medicine. Kor a
time they called it Lung Weed; bot give
valuable testimonials as-to its virtues Uv
enring Rheumatism.
When von open one of our packages,,
keep it excluded Irotu tlie air aa much na1
possible.
I have wk1 it in my family for fonr oir
five years, and regard it as one ot the best?
family medicines we ever used. A tlner
nre is manufactured from it in Cincinnati,
ami sold at 75 cents per ounce. A single-

tincture, which U worth $5. The 8hrub
from which this Tahiable medicine is gath
ered, is only found in a narrow belt of
country in Southern Oregon, and along the
Sierra Xevada Mountains, anil is supposed
to have been gathered from Mount OHeatl
thousands ot years .-go, and the gum ex
