their wares to the purchasing public. They have made
..the most of their chance and have,

large proportion of every dollar's, worth of goods thus
'old came out of the pockets of the Portland merchants.
All of these' men had contributed liberally to the fair
without hop "or expectation of return and purely for
t the good of the community and state. . When tbey.made
these contributions they knew that many goods 'were to
??be sold at' the fair; ihey .knew that they would experi
i'. ence? some losses in consequence, but they made no
objection whatever, lit was part of the fair and there

' Exhibits building is the riffraff stuff that could not be
fnoved under ordinary circumstances. It is now pro
'posed to unjoad this upon the trusting people of Port
V land, and to the great disadvantage of the local mer
chants who contributed so largely in money and other
jbe to the success of the great fair enterprise. There
Is no way in which such a step on the part of the fair
"managers can be justified. If the fair-had proven a
Ymancial failure Instead of a financial success and it was
) 'deemed necessary in this way tp even up' for losses
y sustained; there might be something "to Justify such a
proceeding-. But there ia none now. The Foreign Ex
hibits building should be dosed with the rest of them,
i and that promptly... '' ' "' " ' ' ". ' ' ".'''
' The Journal desires to call this matter tothe personal
attention of President Good' and. to say 'to him that
jin entering this protest it-is expressing the sentiments
-pf some of the most loyal friends the fair ever had. It
'would suggest to him that this movement is an outrage
itipon the merchants of the. city and should under no
circumstances be permitted. V '

have been aggressive for " bad government; for "ag-

JOURNEY OF LEWIS,
AND CLARK .
On th Columbia river. '
October JS. W were visited this
morning, by several canoe of. In
dians, , who Joined those already with
ua, and . aoon opened a . numerous
council.- W Informed - them,., as
we had dona all tha other Indian na
tions, of our friendship for them, and of
our desire for peac among all our red
children In th country. Thla was con
veyed by algna -through the mean of
our two chief, and aeemed to be perfectly
understood. W then gave to all the chief a
a atrlng of wampum. In remembrance of
what we bad aald. - During th confer
ence four men cam in a canoe from a
larg camp on an Island about sight
mile below, but after atari ng a few
minutes returned without saying a word
to ua We now procured from th prin
cipal chief and on of th Culmnapum
(Chlmnapum) nation a sketch of the
Columbia, and tha tribe of hi nation
living along Its banks and those of th
Tapteet (or Tap teal). They drew tt with
a plec of coal on a rob; and afterward
transferred to paper (being now . on
Clark H SI); It exhibited a valuable
specimen of Indian delineation.
Having completed th purpos of our
stay, we now began to lay In our a tores.
Fish being out of aeaaon, w purchased
40 dogs, for which w gave email ar
ticle,, auch aa bells, thimbles, knitting
needles, brasa wire, and a few beads.
an exchange with which all seemed per
fectly satisfied. ' These dogs, with six,
prairie cock, killed this morning,
formed a plentiful supply for th pres
ent W her left our guide and the
two young men who had accompanied
him. two of th three being unwilling
to go any farther, and th third being
of no ua. as he ws not acquainted
1th th river below. - W therefore
took no Indian but our two chief, and
reaumed our Journey In tb presence of
many of th Sokulka, who came to wit
ness our departure. Tha morning was
cool and fair, and th wind from th
southeast Boon after proceeding, we
passed th Island In th mouth of Lewis
(Snake) river, aad - at - eight ' mllee
reached a larger laland, which axtend
three mile In length. . On going down
by. this island there la another on. th
right which commence about th mid
dle of It and continues for three and a
half mllea Whil they-continue paral
lel to each other, -they oocaalon a rapid
near Jthe lower extremity of th f Irat
Island, opposite which on th second
Island ar nine lodge built of , mate.
Intended for the accommodation of fish
erman, ef whom w aaw great number,
and vaat quantities of dried fish on
their scaffolds. - ' 'v--
On reaching th lower point of the
laland w landedVto etamlne a bad
(Homly) rapid, and then undertook th
passage, which la very difficult aa. the
channel Ilea between two email lalanda,
with- two others still smaller near th
left aid of th river. Her were two
Indian houaea, th Inhabitant' of which
war a usual drying flah. We paased
th rapid without injury and lift
mllea from th mouth, of Lew la river
came to an laland near th right shore,
ffn which were two other house of In
diana, pursuing tha cuatomary occupa
tion. At IH miles beyond thl place
is th mouth of a small brook, under a
high hill on thJft It seems to run
during Its whole eoura through th
high country, which begins at this plac
and rises to th height of too feet form
ing oliffs of rugged black rocks which
project a considerable distance into th
river. . ' , ......
Here we observed a mountain to the
southwest the form of which 1 conical
and its top covered with enow. W fol
lowed the river a It entered the high
lands, and at th distance of two mile
reached three Islands, one on each side
of th river, and a third In the middle,
on which were two houaea wher th
Indiana were drying flah opposite a
small rapid. Near theaa a fourth laland
begins to th right shore, where were
nine lodge of Indiana, all employed
with their fish. As we paaaed they
called to ua to land, but aa night was
coming on and there waa no appearance
of. wood In. the neighborhood, we went
on about a mil farther, till, observing
a log that had drifted down the river,
w landed near It on th ten side, and
formed urcamp under a high, hut
having made 10 mllea today. Directly
opposite us were five house of Indiana
who were drying fish on the earns Island
wher w had passed the nine lodge,
and on the. other eid.f th river w
saw a number of horse feedlna-. Ann
after landing we were Informed by our
cniei mat me larger or tne nine houaea
belonged to the first chief, of all the
tribes In th quarter, and that he tA
called to requeat ua to land and paaa the
night with him, aa ha had plenty of
wood for ua. Thia Intelligence would
have'been very, acceptable If tt had h.
explained sooner for w were .obliged to
uae dried willows for fuel to cook with,
not being abl to burn th drlftlog which
nau lempiea u to land.' w now sent
th two oblef along th left aide ef th.
river to invite the great chief dawn
to apend th night with aa. Ha am. .t
a late "hour, accompanied by to men,
bringing 'a basket of mashed berries.
which he left aa a preeenj: for us, and
formed a camp at a ahort distance
from ua .
