An Appeal to Ainrrlauis.
Port Hurok, Mich., Sept. 11. To the
American People: We have to-night returned
from the burnt districts of Huron and Sanilac
counties. We have seen the burned, disfig
ured and writhing bodies of men, women and
children; the rouh board collins. containing
the dead followed to the grave by a few
blinded, despairing relatives; crowds of half
starved people at some of the stations asking
for bread for their families and neighbors.
We heard of more than a hundred victim
already buried; more charred and bio.ited
bodies are daily discovered; already more
than fifteen hundred families are found to be
utterly destitute and houseless. They huddle
in barns, in school houses, in their neighbors'
houses, scorched, blinded, helpless; some still
wander hall-crazed around the ruins of their
habitations, vainly seeking their dead; some
iu speechless agony wringing their hands and
refusing to be comforted. More than ten
thousand people, who only one week ago oc
cupied happy, comfortables homes, are to day
homeless ami houseless sufferers. They are
hungry and almost naked when found and in
such great numbers and so widely scatteied
that our best efforts and greatest resources
fail to supply their immediate wants. With
out speedy aid many will perish and many
more will suffer and become exiles. Our peo
ple will do their utmost for their relief, hut
all our resources would fail to meet their
necessities. We appeal to the charity and
generosity of the American people. Send help
without delay. Signed, K. C. Carlton. Mayor
of Port Huron and chairman of the relief com

MIi'C.I ADO ABOUT KOTUI.N'V.
Guiteau' Story or Ibe Shooting anil III
Horror of "Manler."
Washington. Sent. 1. Gniteau has told
ten different stories about his position when
Sergeant Mason fired into his ccll. At first
andwhen under excitement, he said he was
lying on the bed when he was fired at. Sub
sequently he said that he was standing at the
window, but it is believed his first statement
is true and that he concerted the second with
the kope that it could give him more noto
riety if he made it appear that he had a nar
row escape. This is not the first time Guiteau
has given reason since he was imprisoned to
believe that he does not always tell the truth.
His account of the shooting as now given to
Warden Crocker is as follows:
"It was a close call," aud walking to the
window he pointed to a hole iu the outer
glass and said :
"You see that! Well, I saw a wagon.
When they came out it was raining and I was
looking at the soldiers getting out. I hod my
arms in this position (putting one arm over
the other and near the elbow and resting them
on the first bar of the cell). My chin was
resting on them. I saw the flash riidit from
that corner (pointing to the south corner of
the west wing), and the next thing was a ball
crashing and passing over here (pointing over
his shoulder). See here. The ball came in
right hore (pointing to spot on the wall).. It
was a powerful snot, for after it glanced it
went rijjht through my coat which was hang
ing on this nail. See what it done. It spoiled
this pioture (nulling out one of the photo
graphs taken of him, in which the left breast
is completely torn). I had some other things,
a toothpick among them, which it did not
touch. I want toltcep the picture as a me
mento. Gen. Crocker said there was a good aim at
the heart of the picture.
"Yes," replied Guiteau, "but I would
rather have it there thsn in me; and," he
added, "I don't kuow who did it." A guard
remarked, "It looks like an accident." Gui
teau made no reply, but evidently did not
take any sto-k in the suggest! n.
Sergeant Mason is said by an officer of the
battery to be the best shot in the company.
He ) he hid observed that every evening
when the guard arrived Guiteau took the
same petition at the cell under the window,
'For weeks Mason noticed this and be mule up
bis mind that a bullet aimed at that spot just
after the guard arrived would hit Guiteau.
From one view he could see Guiteau from a
window openiug in a line with Guiteau' cell
window, but he could not fire a direct shot
from that position; he had to go round the
yard and get a position at another place, in
order to command a range at Guiteau' cell
window. Mason did not stop at his usual
place of observation to see if Guiteau was at
the window, but as he had never failed to be
there when the guard arrived, Mason took it
for granted that the prisoner was at the win
dow, so he hurried on to the point where he
could get a rangt of the window and fired,
without attempting to make it certain that
uuiieau uy in ranee,
iUt rTO im ut.it.uis ...
a falsehood in saying that he was at the win-
ri i .i:-..: il... n.,,1.,11 toll
dow is that from where the shot was firid he '
must have been hit bad he stood there. Gui
teau has been removed to another cell, and its
location in tho j ill is kept a profound secret.
Neither the military or officers other than
those who arc on duty in that particular
mauling know where it is About noon to,
day Guiteau took up his abode m his new
quarters, there will be no court-martial in
the case of Sergeant Mason. His offense is
one against civil, not military, law. It is not
thought at the War Department that there
will be any trial at all. The opinion that Ma
son was not in his right mini! when he did the
shooting is prevalent among the officers of the
War Department. The civil authorities may
move iu the matter and prosecute, but it is
not th night they will. The district attorney
has not begun any action, and says he lia had
no official notification of tho shooting.
Guiteau keeps his reckoning of time by
making a little notch in a piece of card. He
has one for eucli day that passes. This is how
he knew his birthday had arrived. The guards
say he is au unconscionable liar about the
most trivial matters. He was in great terror
lest ho should be murdetrd. Guards parsing
his cell frequently hear bin; praying during
the night. He is evidently an arrant rowan).

MplrMimUitlr Swindler.
San Fiiancimco. Sent. 13. Two swindlers.
Hcury Seaman and Charles Williams, were
locked up last evening on the charge of ob
tabling money under false pretenses. They
hired Piatt's Hall aoiLndverlised that Charles
Slade, the noted spiritualist, would hold a
spiritual revival, including an exhibition of
materialized spirits, table tipping, rapping,
spiritual music, writing tests, etc. A largo
crowd assembled, but the only performance
was that of a bell-bov of the International ho
tel, who read very badly an equally badly
written lecture. He was lnterrunted bv the
jeers of tho disgusted audience anil run oil' the
stage. The prime movers in the meantime
had vamoosed with the proceeds of the box
oflice, but were subsequently arrested. It is
not believed, however, that action can he made
to stick.
A Juke That I no Joke.
In the board of supervisors last evening
Stetson, of the 12th ward, explained that lie,
had entered into a contract with one Jonn
Thompson to unearth buried treasures from
the plaza. Ho read the contract, by which
Thompson agrees to give 23 per cent, of pro
ceeds to Stetson to be held in trust fur certain
benevolent associations in consideration of
permit to carry out his mining proposition.
Stetson explained that he had given pcrpiis
sijn as a joke, but citizens do not see where
tho joke of digging up tho public grounds
otnes in. Thompson has been at work and is
throwing up dirt like a steam paddy. Ho
claims to have information of a large amount
of treasure buried there in the days ui 41).
The board accepted Stetson's explanation as
given.
What Constitutes Settlement ?
In the case of Martha Marks araiust George
H. DeLany involving a tract of land in town
ship 13, range 43, near May View, the Kegis
to i' and Receiver at Walla Walla have decided
in favor of Miss Marks. As the case involv es
a nice point, we will give some of the facts.
Miss Marks bought the improvements on the
tract from one Victor, and made a filing when
the land was restored from the N. P. grant,
January Gth last. On (lie 10th of Match she
built a house on the land. About the 5th of
March DeLany also built a house on the tract
and the contest grew out of Miss Marks' offer
to prove up. The decision of tho Register and
Receiver is based upon a recent decision as to
what constitutes settlement of a settler under
the pre-emption laws. It wus decided that a
settler under the pre-emption act is one who,
in pursuance of intention to claim under the
law, docs some act connecting himself with
the tract claimed. Such act being equivalent
to an announcement of such intention from
which the public generally may have notiso of
his claim. Miss Marks bought the improve
ments and dug a w ell before DeLay built his
houc, and thus showed full intention, suffi
cient to form a notice. It was also decided
that it is immaterial whether a person pur
chases improvements upon the land, or makes
them himself. Should this decision be sus
tained, as there is little doubt it will be, the
question "What Constitutes Settlement?" will
be settled itself. Columbia Chronicle.
The shock which the country has received
in the attack on the President, has paved the
way for a more careful consideration of the
arguments in favor of civil service reform.
An association of which George William Curtis
is president, is engaged in the work of circu
lating documents giving information on the
subject. There can be no doubt that if ap
pointments were made inpursuance of a com
petitive examination, and positions retained
during good behavior, the civil service of the
government would be improved, and much of
the bitterness extracted from political cam
paigns. The hunger for place kept up the
sectional strife between the North and South
for fifteen years, and that same hunger for
place has now capped its bloody climax in an
attempt to assasinate the President. When
itit is remembered how lavish candidate! are
in their promises of giving office before elec
tion, and the incalculable number of breaches
of such pi onuses afterwards, the wonder is
muiderouB assaults on successful candidates
have not been more numerous. Guiteau had
mvle a speech which was used as a campaign
document. The conceited wretch no doubt
believed that his speech had more to do with
Garfield's election than those of Kmory Storrs,
Roscoe Conkling, or our own A. L. Morrison.
No doubt he was credited and complimented
for his effort by meu high in the councils of
the party. It may be that Garfield himself
made autographic acknowledgment of Guit-
ean's performance. He did as much for a
Chicago doggerel rhymer who sent him an
effusion during the campaign. Now the ques
tion is: Have campaign blowers and strikers
any light when successful candidate are
bjuud to respect! The President of the
United State should not lie embarrassed with
the distribution of small office orlie impor-
portunities of small vulgar men. To this mil
the subordinate position should be filled and
kept filled, so that a change of administration
hould cause no more commotion among the
petty office holder than a limitir chance
would cause in England. If a wholesale
change of puMic(ervnU were out of the
onntinn. there would be no uuadrennial. or

Wheat Growers' Me9tlnj.
Monday, September Gth, is the date fixed
for the reassembling of the adjourned Wheat
Growers' Convention. Tho committee ap
pointed at the meeting last Spring to prepare
a plan of organization will most likely be
ready with a report for the consideration of
the Convention. There are valid reasons why
grain growers generally should lie present.
Evidently if any considerable unanimity of ac
tion on the part of fanners is manifested,
quite an advance over the present ruling
price of wheat may be seemed. There aio
moro ships in port at present, coupled with
those soon to arrive, than at any other time
during the season, and if fanners can agree
upon the rate they will allow exacted from
them for tonnage, they can easily biing ship
pers to ternp. The present ruling rate for
tonnage is from 80 to 85 shillings. Sixty
shillings per ton to Liverpool or Cork is a
good round rate, and fully satisfactory to
ship owners. The difference paid between
60 and 80 shillings is the middleman's profits.
Why should farmers pay this enormous boun
ty to speculators? The ships in port and to
arrive must have cargoes. The ruling price
for good shipping wheat is about $1.70 per
cental. If freights were reduced to 60 sliil
lings wheat would be worth about $1.90 per
cental. This rate is just about what the
Liverpool market will bear, and allow 60 shil
lings for freight and contingent expenses.
This calculation, of course, cuts off the spec
ulator's profits.
If fanners generally will come together and
agree among themselves not to sell io. 1
shipping wheat for less than SI. 00 they can
just as well have it as $1,70. If grain should
be held back by farmers for a few weeks,
speculators who have chartered ships would
have to go the wall, in consequence of the ex
pensive demurrage which they are obliged to
pay if the vessels should not receive cargoes
within a given time, tn that case shipowners
would be at liberty to deal directly with"
farmers, when they would be willing and
anxious to take wheat to Liverpool at 60
shillings per ton, which is really more than
the average of them are now getting. Cannot
some agreement be made among farmers
which will bring about this desirable end ?
Certainly the gain is wortlUhe effort to attain
it. California Patron.

The stock range of one firm in the South
end of Grant county is fifty miles wide and
one hundred and twenty-five miles long. This
film by taking advantage of the nefarious
swamp land laws of Oregon now hold posses
sion of the watering places in this vast region,
and as effectually keep settlers out, as if they
had a patent for the whole region. There is
much valuable land in this region upon which
settlers would gladly locate, but for the spuri
ous claim of these cattle kings. , Six thousand

The poor man who wants 1G0 acres of this 4,
000,000 acres, upon which to make a home for
a family, soon finds that he is powerless to
contend for his rights and sadly moves on.
There is a condition of affairs in Southeastern
Oregon of which our law maker and court
are as ignorant as of the domestic affairs of the
inhabitants of the moon. An immigrant who
settle in that region is soon made to feel that
he must quit the country or be lawed out of
his little property. The result is that nobody
does settle upon one of these ranges. How

Marble Yard at Salem.
Mr. J. A. McDonald, of Salcin, has revo
lutionised the business of furnishing mural
tablets, monuments, etc., for burial grounds,
and of walling in cemetery lots, greatly in the
interest of the public, by taking contracts for
work at far more reasonable prices than have
hitherto prevailed, and doing the work in a
very superior manner. Our attention has
been called in this direction of late and we
are surprised at the great lowering of prices,
so that good work is now brought within the
means of many persons who aro desirous of
erecting some testimonial in commemoration
of departed friends. The beautiful Odd
Fellows cemetery, at Salcin, shows many
specimens of Mr. McDonalds work aud many
of the handsomest monuments, brought from
abroad, have been put up under his direction.
A very costly grey granite monument, brought
from Connecticut quarries, is lately erected
over the grave of Hon. David Logan, under
the superintendence of Mr. McDonald, and
he has done much excellent work there in
various directions, including somo walls built
around cemetery lots, that are very beautiful.
We feel no hesitation in commending Mr.
McDonald to all needing such work done and
in saying that his work will not only bo done
in the best manner but at reasonable charges.

Loss of a Valuable Horse.
Fox Tallev, Sept. 10, 1S81.
Editor Willamette Farmer:
Never turn out your horse with a halter on
and tho hitch-ropo lapped round the neck. A
fine gelding, belonging to a Potter, was thus
turned out one evening, and iu tho morning
he was found down, with both hind feet
through the rope that was round his neck.
Being newly shod, ho had kicked all the skin
and flesh from one side of his head from just
above the mouth up to tho car, leaving the
bones bare. The horse will die, if he is not
already dead. Mr. Potter refused $130 for
the horse a fuw days before the accident.
Don't leave a rope round your horso'a neck.
