sufferers are widely scattered and looking lor individuals
is like seeking the proverbial needle in a haystack. An
individual citizen would simply be lost. Necessarily he
could receive no consideration,, for; the military authori
ties who are in charge are looking after the mass of in
dividuals involved in the great 1 calamity and can give
no time to private concerns. " -.. ', - :..::.i--..-,:
At Mr. Calvin says, keep away and keep forward

complicated no more than it is and the authorities will

THE WORK OF RELIEF.
THE SITUATION at San Francisco is beginning
v I-- to be relieved already, and the relief worfcwill
..'.-1.' .; go on rapidly.-effectlvely, and -after 'a little sys-
tematically. Those hundreds of thousands of destitute
people must be fed and otherwise provided for, and the
millions of American people will see that it is done.
Dependable men and womeri will " be in" immediate
charge, and supplies and money may safely be intrusted
to them. Doubtless there-will be some loss and-some
misuse, but this will be only incidental and such as in a
case like this is unavoidable. - Among such a mass of
people as those comprising a city of the size of San
Francisco there are always vicious and dishonorable
elements, people who will steal and plunder, taking
advantage of the excitement and panic to do so; and
there are others also who will accept charity that they
do not deserVe or need, and just at first fine discrimina-
" lions cannot be made; but in a Tittle while these unde
serving or Criminal elements will be pretty well sifted
out and eliminated. There should be and will be no
diminution of the relief afforded because some small
fra4ki-f -it-may be diverted into wrong channels.
The whole country is responding nobly, yet only as a
matter of course to the demand for help, and Oregon
is . doing its share and will continue to do so, we are
sure. Oregon is rich in all kinds of supplies and re
sources and ought to make a record for itself in this
case though of course this should be only a secondary
and incidental consideration. t
Everybody ought to help to some extent and the
mayor's suggestion that each one give a day's income
is a good one. - You :won't miss- it a year hence or
perhaps a week hence, and it will do good not only to
destitute people -who-have suffered a "great - calamity,
but will do yourselves good too.- A little more sacrifice
and less selfishness is to be, desired , among humanity
-in general. ' - :'. '. ;. '
'. ? THE POOR HELP THE POOR. '
IT IS AN OLD SAYING that it Is the poor that
help the poor; that those in great and dire need
generally obtain help and relief from those only a
little better off than themselves, and this is doubtless
being demonstrated anew, in the case of the California
sufferers. Rich people are doing well, nobly, and but for,
, them the needed relief could not be obtained; yet thou
sands of poorer people will give more in proportion to
their means than the rich. All sorts and conditions of
men, and of women in particular, will help to swell
the millions that will pour into California to succor the
distressed, and this -is a gratifying thing to- note and
remember. ' Mankind in case of emergency or when oc
casion brings out its real nature and exposes its heart,
is perhaps better than we are wont to consider it The

number of women who are in comparative if not abso
lute poverty and whose names will never be known to
domer even better. And this is tne ruie;
HE OPINION has been expressed by many that
a lack of confidence in the stability of
San Francisco's foundation the city would not be
again important and great, but we
opinion that this is a mistaken view.
or are not greatly influenced by such
they are inclined or by the prospect of
gain easily induced to take large risks. The recollection
of what has occurred in San Francisco will become dim
or vague and lose its force and people will take another
chance there, as tney or otners nave aone aunng xne past
half a century. The situation of San Franciscan's unique
and on no -other spot in that part of the coast can a
great cky be built up. The desire for gain,"1, the, com
mercial impulse, will we think rebuild San Francisco and
make it greater than ever, in spite of the constant peril of
earthquake." This calamity will be forgotten after a little,
unless there are recurring shocks soon, or will be remem
bered and dwelt on but slightly. What "at the moment
seems an irreparable loss is often found and seen later
not to have been so; There were probably many people
in Chicago in 1871 who in the smoke and glare of the
great conflagration there supposed and said that the
city would and could not be rebuilt in half a century,
and yet in a very few yearSjjn a very brief space of time,
goes, Ctucago-was-far-greater than-
fore. So it has been in Boston in Baltimore, in Seattle
and Spokane. Where a city properly and in a sense nec
essarily should be, there it will arise, and if destroyed will
rearise, and always better and greater than before.
It may be aid that this does not apply to San Fran
cisco because of the constant danger of earthquake which
presumably did not exist in other cases, yet as we have
paid we do not think this danger will deter money-seeking;
enterprising and venturesome men from rehabilitat
ing San Francisco, because it is exactly on its site where
a city should and if possible must be. And after alt,
is it much more likely that San Francisco will 'Suffer
from another earthquake in hundreds of years to come
than that one should occur in New York, Boston,
Seattle or Los Angeles? Why should there have been
an earthquake in Charleston rathcr"than Ifl any of these
or any one of scores of other coast cities?, And did
the people of Charleston forsake it?
No, after the horror of Ihe time' lias passed, and as
to the mass it will pass quickly, the work of rebuild
ing wjll be --begun' and carried on, and in a few years
we shall probably see an even greater San Francisco
than that which has so largely and tragically disap
peared. This will only be prevented by a recurrence
of violent seismic disturbances, which we may guess,
are not likely to happen. -
'ZXi LIGHT VOTE AT THE PRIMARIES. .
T IS' REGRETTABLE that a greater proportion of
the voters of Oregon . did not participate in the
primaries : vesterdavr-the results at hand showing
that very, many, did not take enough interest in the
choice of candidates to vote. The California calamity
cause pf a light vote, everybody be
ing intensely interested in that event and so caring
less about the election that they otherwise would.
Then everybody, both in cities and in country, is busy.
The farmers are in the thick of their Spring work, the
mills are all crowded with orders,, the merchants are
selling great quantifies of goods, and so a large pro
portion of busy people of all kinds do not care to
spend the time or take the trouble even to go to the
polls. Many a voter thinks: "Well, I have no especial
interest in any candidate; one is .probably about as
good as another; my vote would not change the result
will let the rest make the choice."
It is yet too soon to comment on the results as to the
choice of candidates, or what their probable chances are
for election. They will be severally sized up by the
voters between now and the first Monday in June, when
we hope for and may, expect a larger vote, and it is
that what may be called the inde
it will be large. -

LEWIS AND CLARK,
At the mouth ef the Dee Chutes river.
April 21. The remaining two canoes
were dispatched early In the morning.
with all the baggage that eould not be
carried on horseback. Ws had Intended
setting out at the eame time, but one
of our horses broks loose during the
night and we were under the necessity
of sending several men In search of him.
In the meantime the Indians, who were
always on the alert-stole a tomahawk,
hlch we -eould not recover, though
several of them were searched. Another
fellow was detected In carrying off a
piece of Iron, and kicked out of camp.
Captain Lewis, then addressing the In
dians, declared that he wae not afraid
to fight them; for if he chose, he might
easily put them to death and burn their
village; that he did not wish to treat
them 111 If they did not a teal; and that
though, if he knew who had the toma
hawk, he would take away the horaee
ot the thieves, yet he would rather lose
the property altogether than take the
horse of an Innocent man. The chiefs
who were present at thia harangue hung
thetr heads and made no reply.
At 19 o clock the men returned with
the horse, and soon sfter an Indian, who
had promised to go with us aa far as
ths Chopunnlah, eame with two horaee,
one of which he politely offered to carry
our baggage. We therefore loaded nine
horses, and giving the tenth to Bratton.
who was still too sick to walk, about 10
o'clock left the village of these dis
agreeable people.- At 1 o'clock we ar
rived at the village ot the Eneeehurs,
where we found Captain Clark, who had
been completely unauccesaful tn his at
tempt to purchase horaee, tha Eneehure
being quite as unfriendly as ths 8kil
loots. Fortunately, however, ths fellow
who had sold a horse and afterward lost
blm at gambling belonged to this vll
Isge, and we Inaited on taking the kettle
and the knife which had been given him
for the horse If he did not replace it
with one of equal value. He' preferred
the latter alternative snd brought Us a
yr good horse. Being her Jvlne bg
the canoes and baggage serosa the port
age, .we halted half a mile above tn
town and took dinner on some doga
after which we proceeded on about four
miles and camped at a village ox Knee-
anura, eonaiatlng or nine mat nuia, i
little below the mouth of the Towah
nahlooka. We obtained from theae peo
ple a couple of dogs snd a email quan
tlty of fuel, for which we were obliged
to give a higher pries than usual. We
alao bought a boras with hla back so
much Injured that ho could scarcely bo
of much service to us; but the price
wss some trifling article which In the
United-States would cost about 11.25.
The dreaa, manners and languags Of the
Eneeahurs differ In no respect . from

A Plea for Garden Walla.
From the Atlantic Monthly. . . y
There are two waye of getting out
door privacy at home.. If your house Is
placed on a nniaiae you may euiid a
retaining wall, and so provide yourself
with a terrace which lifts you above the
surrounding country, but such roofless
outdoor - rooms will be few compered
with those- obtained by -building a wall
or planting a hedge on the level ground.
The mere mention et a wall disturbs
ths equilibrium of many Americans; one
or two actual walls hsve stimulated the
pen to action, and fears of the "revival
of feudalism", have appeared to warn ua
that auch treatment of our grounds
would place ua In a most precarious
condition; but there Is ths hedge, and If
the difference between mineral and veg
etable matter will produce such a calam
ity as "rsudsusm," let us ny an means
keep to the vegetable and have - the
hedge. - - ' --',.-
If your hedge IS properly .plaMed, with
the trees not more than one, foot apart
your boundary will. In time, be almost
ss protecting aa a wall. The evergreen
le preferable, for then you may have,
winter garden. Nothing can exceed In
beauty tha deep green hemlock. -
The desire for a garden Is too old,
even though comparatively new In ogr
country, to be called a' fad. You can
leave a part of your grounds open to
ths public gsxe, snd there Indulge in a
lawn and auch. flowers as will give edu
cation aad pleasure, but If you went a
garden to live In and enjoy, and not to
show to the world aa a rare exotlo, the
first thing to do Is to sncloae your. specs.
The gsrden should be quite ae personal
an affair ae the houae. -
