A letter dated Nov. 23 received by Mr. Jas. Marks ttiU week tells of the safe ar rival of Rev. and Mrs. Cavender at their missionary field of labor at Lakawn, Laos, Asia. The trip was the longest any missionary lias to tnaae to reach their field of labor. They were much pleased with the looks of the country, but especially the mountains. They look more like home than anything else. The trees and flowers and fruits, everything. in fact, is different. The houses are not quite Americanized, the river is very large, or rather wide, but the farther up the shallower it had gotten until they caa stopped on the sana-uars six or a dozen times the last day. Sometimes they would stop and take a walk on the bank, sometimes with their shoes and stockings off, wade out, and end up trio evening by a bath in the river, tsome of the tut sets are beautiful, hart'lv describ- able. The wild flowers offer nothing to beat America. They anticipated ban anas and pinv apples, but only cared for on Einuot oranges. Among their na row escapes was trom the explosion of bottle cf amonia, the striking of a rock that nearly upset the boat. At Lakawn they have a lovely house, much better than they would have thought of bavins t home. They were to take an elephant nue to ctung Mm. a tour weeks trip. going as the guests of Mrs. Dr. McKean. i. bey baa cone the rounds and found every one lively, add were surprised to hna every thing so nice. Mr. Dalrymplc Spcaks. C. II. Dalrymple was in Salem ye?ter- day and wa9 interviewed by the States man. He said : 'It is my opinion that il is contrary to the interests ot the populist party to prevent the possibility of organizing the Loose. I believe thev are putting them selves in an attitude that will be dirhcnlt to explain to the people in the future, and are sacrificing the party in order t.i demonstrate the pnwer they happen to have because of division in the republi can ranks. I believe every member of the legislature, regardless cf party, is elected upon his promises to attempt to secure some reform, or pass lelorm measures, and X do not believe any mem ber would have been elected had he stated prior to his election that be would hold out and prevent or oppose an or ganization of the bouse. 1 believe it to be the duty of every member to take his seat and pot binuelf on record The excuse of some oi the popolist I have talked with that they are justified in akin? the positioa they have becanse they wid prevent extravagant legislation by so doing, is erroneous, i.cir hrst duty is to assist in the organization and give anv member of the house an oppor tunity to fulfill bis promisee to the peo ple. Then if the republican! pass outers contrary to tboe measures, the populists Lave done their duly, and are cot le sponsible for what they caunot he'p and for the legislation they cannot control "I have labored several years to or ganize and advance the interests of the popuust party. The fact of my wcrk may be seen by reference to the vote ia mv own county, which gave Vanderbnrg a majority over Tongue of over 1000, making it the banner county of Oregon ; and I iew with alarm the position that is no r taken by populist members of the legislature, which, it seems to me. endangers the very life of the party.

At a meeting of the Indian War Vet erans held in camp, at Albany, Oregon, on the 20th day of January, 1897, in formation was received of the death of our esteemed comrade and veteran, Col. John Kelsay, who served his country in Rogue Uiver Indian War in 1835 and 1856, and who died at his home in the city of Corvallis, on the ll'tli of this month. Whereupon a committee of three was appointed to draft a pi earn ble and reso lutions appropriate to bis memory. Whkrkas, in the death of Col. Kelsay, the Indian War Veterans of Oregon have lost a beloved companion, an upright and honorable citizen, one whose valor never failed him, and who when he saw the right did not fear to maintain it, one of the pioneers of the state who did great service for his home and his country in redeeming these lair lands we now oc cupy from the British Crown and the savage foe; one who perhaps did as mui li as any other singla individual in establishing our magniiiceut system of 6tate government, in building up her in stitutions ana making her a peer in the sisterhood ot states. uoi. Kelsay was live all brave men broaa in his views and nnseLish in his principles and has spent much lime and money to promote the interests of those who gave their service in de'ense of the homes or the pioneers against the ene mies that surround them, and the ad vanced stage of legislation by the general government in favor of and recognizing the value of service uf the Indian War Veterans is in a great measure due to bis enorts. In the death of Col. Kelsay the Indian vt er eterans have lost one oi their best men. one who was to have been presen, at inn ro-union anu auures inn as semblage upon the history and achieve men's and necessary legislation to prop erly recognize the services of those w ho in the infancy of our country gave it .heir bervices and facd a relentless foe without assurance of any reward. Therefore be it Resolved : That ir the death of Ool. Kelsay the pioneers have lott one oi their best mem bers, the Veterans a brave otlicer and the state a good ind honorable citizen. itesolved, That liasCauipextend to his idow and childreu our hearttelt sym pathy and condolence in this their sad beieavemeou Kesolvd, That a copy of this preamble ana resolution bespread upon the records of this Encampment, a copy be furnUhed ine press lor publication.

An Old Matter. Last evening's Salem Journal contains a sensational article, purporting to be a dispatch, and reading: Pobt Towkskso, Jan. 21. "By the steamer Alki the news comes that a great number of people in Alaska are highly exorcised ovi-r an announce ment recently mad to a favored few to the effect that ex-United States Marshal OrvilltsT. Porter of the District ot Alaska is net to l prosecuted on a charge of em bezzlement under which be was indicted several yeais sgo by a United Stales Grand Jury. Several ineffectual attempts have been made in Alaska to bring Por ter to trial, but excuses on account of sickness have thus far saved him. Now the information comes that United States Attorney Bennett has been instructed by the special agent at Washington to dis miss all proceeding against Porter. It is rumored that this action is a result of the efforts of United S ates Senator John II. Mitchell, ot Oregon, on whote recom mendation Porter received bis appoint ment during the regirce of ex-President uarrison. The tone of the above indicates that it ts gotten up in connection with the sena torial tight. If so, regardless of politics, it is an unfair proceeding. Albany peo ple are familiar with the fact that' it was a deputy who did the embenxling and that he went to San Quentiaasa result. Our people have supposed that tbe whole matter was settled some time ago entire ly to Mr. Porters credit. Tbe article undoubtedly does bun an -injustice.

Col. Joseph Mnrray of Fort Collins, CoL, special agent of tbe treasury de partment, was sent to Alaska in May, 1335, to attend ccirt daring the trial of my chief deputy and to note bow justice was administered to scoundrels and re port his findings to the government.

Tbe following poem is dedicated to the worthy members of our legislature wbo will not consent that the rights of the minority of the peoples representatives shall be ignored in framing the laws and shaping tbe destiny of oar noble state: Well done, well done, ye noble band, Who stand for law and troth and right, Who meet the spoilers band to band, .Nor fear their frowns, nor fear ;heir might. Who say ye never will consent. To have tbe people bought and sold, But will their wishes represent, Who have a higher price than gold. Your spirit brings to mind again, The men who made this coantry free, Who broke off every galling chain. And staked their lives for liberty. Go noble patriots, forward go. And lift your banner to tbe sky. Quail not before poor country's foe. Your names untarnished will not die. And when the battle's fongbt and won, And yon return with honest heart, With pride we aU will look upon, Tbe brave who took their country's part. J. H. CoKjrwAtx. Sodaville, Or.
