It is intcrcstlnir to talk with civilized Indians and learn from them what they may know of the present and past conditions or their race, says tne Niiem Statesman. Shaking of the preval enca of consumption among tne In dians on the Klamath agency and reminded that a few more years would find those Indians nearly all in their graves, Henry Jackson, or iuaniaui, assigned a very plausible reason for their decline, lie says their food now is diltlerent from that of tho wild Indian and their habits of life are very much changed. Formerly they roam ed at will, clad scantily with rough skins or naked, just as funcy suited them. Xow they are clothed and housed and often removed to different climes and the changes of temperature at once make themselves felt and at tack the lungs. Mr. Jackson talked freely of the old Indian chiefs. "Scon chin," tho last chief of the Modoes, and one of the leaders ill the Modoc war, is still living. He is weak and Btone blind and must be considerably over a hundred years of age. "Choc taw," the last commander of the Snakes, surrendered his life and passed on to the happy hunting ground only three weeks ugo. He also was blind and was a hundred or more years of age. "Allen Duvld," who used to 1 a great chief among the Klumatha, is still living, although at an advanced age. The light has also gone out of his eves and he has to depend on his people for food and care. The tribe relations are all broken up, and from Mr. Jackson's words it is seen that very soon the last of the original chiefs will have passed to that bourne whence no traveller returns. Although not disop pearing with the bufliilo, as it was years ago said they would do, the American Indian will not be far behind the beast of the prairie in passing from view. Hop Growers.

A Party of Eugene People Ascend the Mountain -An Interesting Ac count of tbe Adventure. In the first days of August a parly of Eu gene people ronsislins of Prof. Collier, E. McCltire, Charles McClure, Mis Me 7. I oilier, M is Jennie McClure aud J. Martin, Kft her with tbe iutenll-n of mat ing tbe aceut of Diamond Peak, a anew mountain situated in the extreme southeast corner of Lane county. The ladie stopped at Kiison a Borings, frof Collier and Mr, Martin at the summit of the range while the ascent wai made by the McClure brothers, The following report will be of interest to our readers: Camp upon the summit of the range was esUbliabed about s mile west of bummit Lake on tbe evening of Aug 11. At 5 a. m en tbe lollowing day we struck directly north through the timber for the peak. Af ter traveliug about a mile we struck the old emigraut road which was used by the pio neers in reactiing the Willamette valley at an early day. As we tramped over this road long ago oust aside for another belter local ed. now Into a gully, now up a steep in cline, recollection of tbe hardships en dured by ihe settlers of this valley csiue to our minds aud seemed to render the soil as we took one stop slter another, almost creu. Alter lollowing tbe road lor some distance it led us into open country over wbich a wngon could be driven to tbe fool of the peak, tud from this poiut bones ojuhl be taken well up tbe mountain. This emigrant road crosses the preseut wagon road about a mile aud a half byond Sum mit Lake aud fiirnihhes the best way for a party of pleasure seeker who wish to as cend the peak to reach the mountntn. Years have pnsxed since the road was used, but little work would render il passable. Here and there a small tree obstructs tbe way but '.his can be easily removed or driven around aud no difficulty would be exiter ienoed iu reaching the foot of the peak with a wagon. After studying tbe mountain carefully from camp, we selected for tbe purpose of ascent one 01 tne snort ritlge ahlcb extend to tbe southwest. Tbe result showed the wisdom of the choice. The ridge selected is oouioo-ed of lava somewhat broken to pieces but tbe boulders are mostly solid so inai goon tooling la given for evory step, ana no duuger ol rolling rock is Incurred, lue aseeut although somewhat steep in ula ces is not difficult for mountain climbms In returning we descended one of the short ridges to the south east and found the foot lug much less solid tban in going up. This ridge near the top is oomposed of fine rock which continually gives war under the fe t. There is no danger of Urge rock from above rolling down upon one, but the con tinual slipping makes bard work of climb. ing np. This loose gravel, however, was rather an advantage than t detriment in coming down. I be soil upon the summit of the rang ia composed of a light volcanio ash with here and tbere small pieces of pumice. The most common tree is tbe jack pine which grows to a beignt of forty or fifty feet, Grass grows plentifully around tbe edges 01 tne numerous lakes where vegetable mould sufficient to sustain it has been col lected. Tbe peak itself, it ia scarcely necessary to say, is volcanio in character, i be nioun tain is composed ol two peaks, the main mountain aud highest peak is on the south and is tbe only one seen by a person looking from the south or west, ibe north peak is connected with tbe main peak by t narrow ridge, is distant between a quarter and a half mile from it and forms one side of an ancient crater. Tbe main peak is composed of three hummocks which ocon- py the relative positions of tbe three angles of a triangle. From the south hummock a long ridiie extends to tbe southwest. This hummock is oonnected to the middle hum mock by a narrow ridge which is about four or six feet across tbe lop aud which slopes rapidly off on tbe east aud west. This ridge extends probably a quarter ol a mile north to Ihe maiu peak. Another similar ridge extends from the main peak a lit tle east of north to the north peak, rrom Ibis peak a lung rough ridge extend to the southeast. Small patches of snow were found npon the south and west sides of tbe peak. In tbe canyon 00 the east considerable snow was found, tbe suow extending within twelve or fifteen feet of summit w hich is en- entirely bsre. On tbe northwest is a small glacier which we did not have time to ex amine, but which is probably two and a bait milts long and one and a half mile wide. Whether or not there be snow on Ihe north side of the north peik, we could not tell siuce we could not see on that slope. Upon the summit of the range aud on tbe slope of the mountains towards the V illamettb are found evidence of ancient glacis! actiou. Boulders are planed ofl and moraines are often seen. In a cylindrical metal box similar to but larger than a pocket match box we found a recordplaceduponthesunimit by a patty in charge of Lieut T. W. Symons in September, INiS. mis party was en ronte irom Lamp Bulwell, California, to lh Columbia river aud ascended the pent- foi lh purpose of establishing a tristiulatinn station. No station was established on account of cloudy aud hazy weather. This parly ereoted a stone mound about four feet high npon tbe very summit and placed Ihe box ooutainiDg their record near tbe base and on tbe south sideoftbe mound. After examining tbe record entering t note ol our own visit we carefully returned the box to its former position. it la the mi-fortune not only 01 tne state which yearly sustains large losses of timber, but also of mountain climbers, that forest fires annually sweep through our mountains. From the forests of Eastern Oregon could be aeen an immense body of smoke rising heavenward. To Ibe westward we looked down the canyon ot tb Willamette from wbich w had climbed tb dy before. In tbe distance tbe view was bounded by t bank of white cumulus clouds. Mountains npon mountains, canron alter canyon meet the 1 ye as tbe gaze was turned Irom point to point. To the north could be aeen boary headed Hood, Mt. Jefferson, Ml. Cope aud Bachelor of Ihe Three Sisters. Mt. Condon, being immediately behind Mt. Cope could not be seen. To ibe south in tbe uear distance stood Mt. Tbielson and beyond barely visible through tbe smoke Mt. Piti could bs discerned. On the north east anj south of us 00 the range we could s-e Davis lake, Crescent lake, Summit lake and smaller sheets of water. Io places the wagon road could be aeen curving here and there, finally losing itself in the timber beyond Crescent lake. Taken iu Its entire ty, mountains, canyons, snow peaks and lake, tbe scene was one of great beauty. About 11 o'clock, while on tbe peak, we were surprised to see a multitude of batter flies fitting here and there aa if entirely at borne. A perfect Indian arrow head mad from obsidian waa found upon the summit of Ihe peak. We left camp on the road at 6 a. m,, and reached tbe summit of tbe peak at 920 a. m., thus traveling tolbe peak and climb ing it in four hour and twenty minute, w remained on the peak nntil noon, leav ina thtre at 1220, and reached camp at 3:15. We immediately packed np post baste and drove down the mountain about eight miles to escape tbe carewea of some of tb most voracious mosquitoes it has ever been our lot to encounter. A rkested. I,putyKheriff Cochran hurt evening arretted the man O. M. lturtlett, forth stealing of articles from tiie hooe of Mr. Iw, In Lout Valley, near that plaee.

Whatever can lie done before the winter acnxoti sets in will be proceeded with, but owing to time wasted it is not probable Unit any considerable amount of Jetty wok proper can be done before- winter. However, everything will b in readi ness to ptiHh the work next spring. Lieut. Lvell is a ideasaut gentleman and, we believe, will use the approprla tlo.i in a manner to mvnnmliNh the best results.

Three large ooutrauts for future delivery of bops bsve just been completed I here. This ia probably ibe anakenlng from the lethargy which has surrounded buyers aud growers throughout the summer, r or two mouths when contracting lor bops should have been very lively, nothing baa been done. The market haa been dull throughout the couutry, and in New York especially. In Oregon Ibe prevalence of lie and uncertainty as to tbe damage wbich they might do has in a great meas ure restrained farmers from selling. Ibe contracts are: One for 10,000 pounds at 16 cents per pound, and two for 0000 pounds each, for IS cents per pound. They are to be delivered in October. The contracts were made through on of Ibe largest dealers, who, ot course, will not di vulge the names of tbe parlies. Tb first lot i to be supplied by one grower, snd the two others by a second. There have not been many contracts made this aon wbich are larger tban these. Chance for llargaln.
