WILLAMETTE VABMEB: PORTLAND, OREGON, NOVEMBER 24, 1882.
Oet Thee a Ranch In the Mountains.
Upcn the completion of the transcoDtinea
Ul railway next year the tide of immigration
will tend Oregonward. Thousands will avail
themslrea oi the opportunity to icek the
golden land of the Occident wheie the grand
Pacific laves the shores of as favored a land
as the Creator ever fashioned. Here they will
find a climate which has fitly betn oalled the
"Ialy of America," where a prolifio soil yields
bounteous supplies of the fruits of husbandry.
In addition to our' fruitful soil, our valuable
herds, ami acres of fine forests, and manufac
turing facilities, we have hatbora into which
ail the tall ships of the Id world to carry
away over the briny deep such of our market
able produce as they desire. In the Eastern
States all the government land has beta
claimed, aud the ambitious poor man, young
and old, must turn thiir facet westward for
the opportunities which in the East are now
passed the acquisition of land by the home
stead and pre-emption laws. In Oregon, es
pecially in the Wilhmette Valley, the greater
put of the prairie land has been taken up, but
there yet remains many thousands of acres of
timber land to be occupied by men who are
ot afraid to roll up their sleeves and face
honest toll with the detern iuation to make a
home on a tract which a generous government
gives to each applicant. It may look like
elf denial to plunge into the woods and at
sent oneself from society in order to fulfill
the intentions of the law which requires a
residence upon the tract so taken, but the man
of pluck wdl reason that he is getting a heri
tage of his own, and that he will not always
be dependent upon the charity of others. In
a few years of assiduous toil he can look about
him with the proud consciousness that he
has won the fight and retains all the trophies
. He will be surprishd to see what an easy and
cheerful task he has accomplished. It hat
beon a beast that anybody can make a living
in Oregon without much labor, but that time
Is passing away, A densely populated coun
try, at Oregon will be in a few years, will dis
sipate all chances of earning bread and butter
with but trifling labor. Those who cannot
see far enough into the future to provide
themselves with laud which can now be had
for the asking, will be crowded out by new
comers who are not afraid to work, and who
will gladly take advantages of the opportuni
ties which so many of our young men at the
present scorn. Labor degrades no man. Ex
penenca in this world hould teach all the
necessity of exertion. Times change. Pro
gress never halts to await the pleasure of tar
dinees of man. The old maxim, "never put
off till to-morrow what you can do to-day," is
pertinent at this time, and is an a 1 vice which
daily proves itself in the affairs of men. That
great agent of civilization, the railroad, is in
our midst, and its developing hand will open
up avenues of business in our land, of which
we Oregonians, in our slow and easy-going,
plodding way never dreamed. To the present
generation of Oregon s young men we will say,
now is your opportunity. Engage in some
permanent business. If you have a trade stick
to it; if you have no trade "get thee a ranch
in the mountains," improve it, prove up on it
and stay with it. Silcerton Appeal.
about twelve acres sowed in Alfalfa which,
although pastured very closely, looked very
well. It has been sown about two years and
has been pastured ever since. Mr. Ward
sayi it can be pastured the first car, if I m's
take not. He saya he 'could have cut a good
crop of hty from his ground the second year
had he not pastured it. It is now eaten close
to the ground, but looks thrifty and is grow
ing. He says its value as green feed, even if
it cannot be cut for hay, is almost beyond es
timation. He thinks of sowing more seed
next spring. Mr. Golden, also of this neigh
borhood, has a small patch on bill land that
is said, to doing well. Thii plant is one
anihng the best of forage plants, and there is
not more than one obstacle, if any, in the way
of making its production a success in this
country, and is our land is such that the sub
soil may be too hard for its roots to penetrate
at deep into the toil ct they should. As for
rain there is plenty of that to make its growth
a certainty, it being adapted to very dry ell
mates. If the practical farmers of Eastern
Oregon want a grass that will grow without
cultivation and befog sown every year, I think
alfalfa or Chilian clover will come as near
filling the bill as any. If it cannot be cut for
hay, it makes splendid pasturage for horses,
cattle, hogs, and, in fact, for all kinds of
stock. I believe if it is sown in the spring on
ground that is in good condition, where the
subsoil is not too hard, that in a year or so
the returns will be large.
Prosperity of the Northwest.
Pacific Coast Forests.
bulletins have been issued from the census
bureaus giving the statistics of forestry of the
State of Oregon and California and of Wash
ington Territory.
The principal trees of California are, red fir,
red wood, tide-water spruce, chestnut and oak
u the coast range; and sugar pine, yellow
pine and red fir on the Sierra Nevada. Any
estimate of the actual amount of lumber
standing in that State, except redwood, is
not possible with the existing knowledge of
the country. The principal lumber industry
it confined to the redwood belt, on the line of
the Central Pacific Railroad, on both alopet
of the Sierra Nevada, to points in Butte, Te
hama and Mono counties, and in the San
Bernardino Mountains. The total produot
of the State for the census year was 334,795,
000 feet of lumber, 242,400,000 feet of laths,
138,718,000 shingles, 2,062,000 staves, and
1,203,000 sets of barrel headings.
In Oregon, the most valuable trees are in
the order as set down: Red-fir, tide water
spruce, red cedar, hemlock, Port Orford cedar,
white oak, sugar pine, chestnut, oak laroh
and scrub pine. The principal lumber indus
try centers Bear Portland, Astoria and Empire
City. The product of the coast region for the
census year was 151,443,000 feet of lumber,
17,950,000 lathi and 2,745,000 shingles. The
product ot the State east of the Cascade
Range was 25.798,000 feet of lumber, 295,000
laths and 2,295,000 shingles.
Washington Territory is covered, west of
the Cascade Mountains, by the heaviest
growth of timber in the United States. The
most atuable trees of this region are yellow
fir covering about seven-tenths of the forest
growth), red cedar, hemlock and tide-water
spruce. Katt of the Cascade Mountains are
red fir, yellow and white pine, larch, hemlock
and red cedar. The principal lumber region
is confined to Puget Sound. The product of
this region for the census year was 144,387,000
feet lumber, 6,850,000 feet of laths, 710,000
hjnglea, and 2,366,000 staves. The product
f the coast, outside of Puget Sound region,
wat 9,609,000 feet of lumber and 200,000
shingles; and of the Territory east of the Cat
LS?' 190.000 feet of lumber and
2,700.080 thiufllee. Atorian.
Those of us who have been in Oregon for
the past quarter of a century can realize the
progress the Northwest has made within the
past two years. Twent-five years ago we had
a population not to exceed 40,000, which was
scattered throngh the Willamette south as far
as Rogue River valley. East of the Moun
tains, which is now attracting so much atten
tion, was scarcely known to even the residents
of the valley. Our only communication with
the outside world wat by steamship from here
to San Francisco about every three or four
weeks in tubs, which it took from five toj
eight days to make the trip. The first relief
we had in mail facilities was the establish
ment of the overland stages, when we re
ceived a daily mail, which was secured to us
through the energy of the late Lansing Stout,
who represented the State in the Lower
House at the time. The travel up the Wil
lamette Valley, in the main, was done on
horsebick, and it took tliree or four days to
go to Eugeie City. The boatsjran irregularly
between this city and Oorvallis once a week
alout seven months each year, and took two
or.three days to get there. Let the reader
contrast the present with that of twenty-fi e
years ago. We were then deprived of all lux
uries and even many necessities. We have
them all now. Look at
our inland transportation and traveling facili
ties as compared with those twenty-five years
ago. Look at the magnificent cities, and look
at the different towns in the valley. Then
take a view of the vast territory East of the
Mountains. See the great wealth that has
been created there within the past ten years.
Look at our commerce and the rapidlyincreas-
ing exports. To the old citizen, who does not
occasionally reflect on the subject, the change
can hardly be realized. For the new-comer,
it is impossible to realize what the State or
this Northwest was a quarter of a century
ago. This progress has not been perceptible
until within the last few years. What has
done it? The rich fertile country and an un
surpassed climate is at the back of this pro
gress, and the improvements are only keeping
pace wiin tne aeveiopment ot tne agricultural
and other reiourcet. Ortgon Colonist,

Alfred Anderson and llertha Nelson In the
Illy Jail.
Chief of Police Lippcus returned last night
on the Queen ot the Pacific, having in charge
Alfrtd Anderson, who is charged with the
murder of his brother Charles, at
Swan Island. The account of the
murder, and the flight and subsc
Juent arrest of Alfred has. already been
published in the Standard, and there is not
much more te record, except that the prison
ers gave the chief no trouble whatever on the
steamer. They talked to him rather freely,
and Anderson made tome contra
dictory statements concerning the trag
edy, and especially about the money. He said
that he hod only $250 when he left Portland
lor the sound. But the fact was developed
that he got into a gambling game with one
of his countrymen named Schow, Harry El
more and Sherwin. Schow roped him in,
Elmore put up the cards and Shot
win did the betting. In one hand
he lost alout $400. The white handled pistol
that Bertha identified as Charles' was found
on Alfred, 'lhe woman is a quiet looking
person and' the probabdities are that 'the
knew nothing of the affair, or Has
afraid to say anything. Anderson looks
very much dejected and makes some
ccnUicting statements now to the re
porters, which is quite natural under the
d'cumstances. The matter will in all proba
bility be referred to the grand jury at one.
He stoutly asserts his innocence, and though
mere is a p if simnty m his l.ivor the circum
stances are against him. The trunk belong
ing to Charles has not been recovered yet.
THE BlIOOTI.NU OF HOXIE.
The facts about the killing of Ezra Hox-
l.hrst, or as he was called, Ed. Hnxie, at The
Dalles on Tuesday, the 14th, by C. P. Jones,
a special police officer, appear to be about as
follow s: Deputy Shei iff Hayden, armed w ith
a warrant, went to arrest a Mrs. Ida M. Hil
dreth, at the instance of her husband, who
lues at White Salmon, and finding her at a
house of bad repute, as resisted by Hoxie in
a threatening manner. Hayden then called
Jones to his assistanco, and togtther they
started to make tl e arrest. City Recorder
Hudson and Justice of the Peace Calhoun
went with the officers. Jones went in the
lead to the door, when Hoxie again appeared
and resisted the officers. He was warned
that it was foolish and dangerous to resist a
warrant, and thai the woman must bo given
up. Hoxie then drew aud cocked h's revol
ver, but Jones was too nuick for him. and

man, and was wanted in court to testify
against a man named Dennis, who ran her
away from her husband. She was found Be
c'reted in the house where the tragedy was
enacted. The report is a mistake that Ed.
Hoxie killed two men or served in the peni
tentiary. His brother Nels was convicted of
manslaughter and served one term. Ed. lived
many years in alem, and was a waiter in
Emerson's restaurant. ,

A COLOBED COLONY FOB
WASHINGTON.
Next Monday, T. J. Addison, who hat
lived in Walla Walla since 1865, will start on
a journey to the Eastern States, with the ob
ject of forming and bringing hither a colony
of colored people. He will visit New York,
Baltimore and Ohio cities for this purpose.
He is very much impressed with the belief
that his people will find this climate prefer
able to that in the east, and that the outlook
hero promises a rich reward for honest toll.
Mr. Addison has made himself thoroughly
conversant with the material facts relating to
this section, and will be able to make a fair
presentation or them to those with whom he
comes in contact. He may be acclimated
himself, but he will find that if he is successful
in securing any considerable numbir of South
ern men and in bringing them out, he or
Eastern Washington will have an elephant on
hand, for, if there is one thing a Southern
colored man does not like, it is cold weather
at any season of the J ear.
SUM IDE AT COQULLE CITY.
On Friday last, in the afternoon at about 2
o'clock, Wm. Mallagh, a respected citizen of
Uoquille City, hanged himself until he wss
dead. He and his wife have lived a disagree
able life for the past year, having, during this
time, separated on two occasions, the last of
which resulted in this horrible tragedy. He
bad threatened to do so before unless his wife
would return, which s! e did and lived with
him up to a day or two prior to his death.
He had been seen dow n town several times
during the day and seemed in his usual mood.

ANOTHER LBADYIUB.
A Rich Mineral Belt that can b traced from
Ruth District, in Idaho, to the Mouth of
Burnt River, in Baker County, Oregon. .
For some time past there has been quito an
excitement in Western Idaho, over the dis
covery of rich ledges of gold and silver ores,
in Washington District, Washinston countv.
Idaho,, hut it was not until last week that any
defiuite information could be received In this
section concerning it It .seems that these
rich deposits of ores are traceable from Ruth
District, in Idaho, to the mouth of Burnt
river, in this county, about 65 miles southeast
of thfs city. The deposits are to be found
principally on Danite creek and the heads of
Ness and Man's creek. The ores consist of
carbonate and chlorides, and conscqucntv are
smelting ores. There have been several men
in the section from I.eadvillo and various
parts of Colorado, and the reports they re
ceived from ores sent back to those points
have been very satisfactory, and men are
Hocking in from that section. The ore is dif
ferent from any over before found in this part
of the couutry, but is vory near liko that of
Leidville. It contains large quantities of sil
ver and copper. Alex. Tartar, an old settler
of this county, was in town last Saturday with
some specimens of the ore. and seems highly
elated over some ledges r-cently found by
himself and partner, Mr. Hobbs. When 1 e
left, there were over 135 ledges recorded in
that district. From what we can gleam frcm
various sources, it seems that there is to be
another Leadville in the new district. Bed

It has been generally known for some time
that a towntite company has been organized in
Cheney and Spokan Falls, to build up an in
terior town at Cottonwood Springs. This sec
tiou of the country has long been known as
the best f aiming area of Spokan county. 1 he
Rockford and Farmingtou countries are, per
haps, no better. At present a large immi
gration is pouring into the country adjacent
to the springs, and it is fast becoming the

which has been a camping spot for travelers
and stock men ever since the country has
been known to white men. Far and near on
all sides extends the open, rolling'country, at
present covered with a rank growth of bunch
grass. Where now is one vast rolling prairie
with here and there farm houses scattered,
will before two years be vast fields of golden
grain waving in the summer breeze.
The lands are not hilly, as in the famous
Paloute region, but the soil is equal to any in
that locality. Water can easily be obtained
in' wells and streams, and at easy distances
wood for fuel and fencing if found on the hill
side sloping toward the Spokan river and
other streams.
Fort Spokan lift at no great distance away,
and the place it centrally located northwest
of Sprague, Cheney and Spokan Falls. It is
but a question of a short time urtil the vast
farming area of which this particular section
it only a large portion, will be opened up by
a railroad running from the line of the North
era Pacific to its farthest extremity. Indeed,
two lines are already proposed that will tap
u"re country, we now of no more
promising land than that of which Davenport
it the center, and it can hardly be otherwise
but that Davenport will toon rank at one of
of our bett townt. The factor of adjacent fine
grain and general farming lands, well supplied
with water and timber, it tare to build a town.
Thit Davenport has, ia an eminent degree.

Some time since Rufus Thompson, who
lives atross the river from Albany, in Benton
county, employed a young man to do farm
work. About the first of the week a man by
the name of Peter McManui, supposed to be
an ex-convict, applied to Mr. Thompson for
work, who gave him a job of chopping wood.
At night he was put in the same bed to sleep
wiui me young larm nana. AlCManus. it

into a personal qnairel with the young man,
calling him hard names, and finally struck at
him, but the young man warded off the blow
by throwing up his arm. At this stage of the
proceeding Mr. 'I hompsou entered and put
an end to the row. It was found after the
melee was over that the young mau had re

Since the fire which came so near destroy
ing the Opera House block, says the town
lalk, the owners have commenced on new
plans to rebuild in a style which will make
the hotel first-class, and materially change the
portion known at the opera house. The hote
pjrt will be divided in such a way as to give
large, well lighted and well ventilated suites
of rooms, with modern arrangement of r.ffW
daucing rooms, etc. The furniture will be of
tho latest styles, all new and elegant. The
hotel will be finished un and readv to onen
about the first of, January next, and will be

antimonial silver ore from the Silver King
mine, the recent strike by Kelly, Duffy and
others, near Sawtooth has been received at
the Hailey Sampling Works. It is probably
the nicest lot of ore received from any mine
in that section this year, as it will average at
least $500 per ton. A chunk as big as a large
man's fist was broken of a niwa .ll.i
about 600 pounds, and attayed, and found to

Tho coroner was immediately summoued and
held au inquest, and from evidence elicited,
the jury decided that deceased came to his
death by strangulation at his own hands. On
a cl air near by was found some writing mate
rial aud a book about a three-quire blotter,
on one page of which was written, length
ways of the book, the following in substance,
seemingly addressed tohis wife: "Thisis caused
by out marriage. If you would forgive I
would." Mr. M. was an honest, hard work
man since he came to Coquille; was a mem
ber of the Seventh Day Adventist church;
was agreeable and kind, and to all appoir
antei temperate. He hailed from Walla Walla

Mail Link Needed. There is nothing
which Eastern Oregon more greatly needs
than a mail line from Lakcview to Harney
valley. In point of w ealth and importance
this section, says the Lakeview Examiner, is
second to none in the State, and it U being
seiea rapiuiy. lhe lack ot mail communi
cation is a serious drawback to the dovelon
ment of the country, settlers having to go
from thirty to one hundred and sixty miles
ior meir man. mow that the Malheur reser
vation has been thrown open for settlement
the population of this section will increase at
a very rapid, rate, and the necessity for mail
service will grow proportionately greater.
That Lakeview should be tho rjoint from
which the route should start there is little
question, for the land office be-'ng located here
the interest ot that whole section of country
demands direct mail communication with this
lace.
Railroad Meeting. At a meeting of the
trustees of tho Palouse and Columbia river
railroad company held in Walla Walla on the
14th, resolutions were adopted increasing the
capital stock from SI. 000.000 to S3.700.000.
The object of this company is to build a rail
road from the Sl-mile post on the Northern
Pacific easterly to Moscow, with a branch to
Farmington. Several miles of grading have
been completed ami a lanre force of men is
at work grading. The trustees elected C. H.

The Bad and Worthiest
are never imitated or counterfeited. This it
especially true of a family medicine, and it it
positive proof that the remedy imitated is of
nie mgnest value. As soon as It had been
tested and proved bv the whole world that
Hop Bitters was the purest, best and most
iuauip mmiiy medicine on eann, many imi
tations spring up and began to steal the no
tices in which the press and people of the
c-iuntry had expressed the merits of H. B.,
and in every way trying to induce suffering
invalids to Use their stuli instead, expecting to
make money on the credit and good name of
II. B. Many others started nostrums put up
in similar stylo to H. B., with variously de
vised names in which the word "Hop" or
"Hop" were used in a way to induce people
to believe they were the same as Hop Bitters.
All such pretended remedies or cures, no mat
ter what their style or name is, and (-specially
those with the word "Hop" or "Hops" in
their name or in anvwav connected with them
or their name, are imitations or counterfeits
Beware of them. Touch nonn of them. Use
nothing but genuine Hop Bitters, with a
bunch or cluster of green Hops on the white
label. Trust nothing else. Drucuists and
dealers are 'warned against dealing in imita
tions or counterfeits.
Walla Walla Statesman : We learn that
tho Assotin country is looming up. and that
settlers are fast pouring in to what will prove
to bo one of the best pot tions of our Torritory.
As a grain and fruit-producing region that
section of Uarneld county is second to none.
Assotin City, on Snake river, ia the principal
landing, and being at the head of navigation,
will soon become a place of importance. A
good ferry is established there to oonnect
with the Idaho side, and Captain Lnwis hat
built a boat 100 feet long and 25 feet boam,
for the purpose of bringing lime and wood to
Lewiston and lai ding below. It is the inten
tion to placo a steam engine in the boat at
the earliest opportunity, but in ths meantime
horses and sails will be used.

Salmon Rivkk Mines In the Salmon
rirrr country the legation of the year naa
been the magnificent ttiike in tho Chirk
Dickens, on Yankee Fork, which it
reported at being in a winze 700 feet from
the mouth of the working tunnel. The
new ore body it taid to be 21 mchet wide, as
saying from 8000 to 12,000 ounces, carrying
both silver and gold, with bits ot almost pure
metal one-third gold and two-thirds silver,
one of which weighed 22 ouno-t. The mine
wat Known before to be one of the greatest
properties in the worlJ, but thit new ttrike
teemt almost fabulous, aud if taid about any
other mine would be received with a distrust
which would not be justified in thit caae, for
almost anything may be believed of thit mine.
