The Indian situation in Eastern Or egon looks serious, and an outbreak is expected at any time. We most earn estly caution our Eastern Oregon set tlers to be strictly vigilant and oa the alert. They should make tho most thorough and complete organisation, and should look to it that every man who can carry an arm is supplied. They can't afford to be run awsy from their hemes and leave their property to be destroyed as was the case last year, and as the threatened emerceacy a rain promises. "We are glad to notice that Oea. Turner of Pendleton, is doing his best to organize militia companiee in his Brigade section, and with an active co-operation ou the part of his subor dinate officers we tope to see an ef fective organization of the citizens of that quarter before next spring.

And now we wish our friends and patrons, one and all as we have annu ally done through these columns for the past thirteen years a "Happy New Year V May the incoming year bring to them all the fullest fruition of all their hopes, desires and expectations, and may their proserity be only com mensurate with their gratitude t the "Giver of all good and perfect. gifts." Selah. wives' raePEBTT m obecos. Among the bills passed by the late Legislature of Oregon, and which has since become a law, is an act relating to property of married women, which provides that property owned by a woman at the time of marriage, or ac quired thereafter by gift, devise or in heritance, shall not be subject to debts or .contracts of the husband, and the wife may manage, sell, convey, and de vise the same as the husband can his property. The property of either hus band or wife shall not be liable for debts or contracts of the other. Ac tion may be maintained by husband or wife against the other fjr tho re;jvry of property for which the other has ob tained possession; thesameasif they were unmarried. Forcivilinjuries committed by the wife, damages can be recovered of her alone, except in cases where she is jointly responsible. Conveyances of liens from one to the other shall be valid. One may constitute the other his or her attorney, to act for mutual benefit or attorney in fact. The wife may recover the wages ef ber personal labor in her own name. Neither is lia ble for the debts of the other incurred before marriage. Expenses of family and education of children shall be chargeable on property of bth basband and wife, or of either of them. rEX AJfB SCISSORS. uzji AiUTLER claims tkat bis own soft money "bricks'' knocked his brains out.
