‘‘ Uncle Sam iu Eugene R egister.”
Fifty-oue yenrs ago this morning,
Mntcb 29, 1863, the writer with a
number o f other persons, mostly
yonng men like himself, and taking
the advice of the well known journ­
alist, Horace Greeley, to “ go west,
yonng man, go west," started from
EdwftrdsviHe, the comity seat o f
Madison county, Illinois, for O re­
gon. We did not lake our suits in
a nice, upholstered palace car, as
is done nowadays, counting to the
minute when we would arrive with
kind friends to greet us in four or
five days’ time.
Perhaps the rea­
son for this was plainer to us at
that time than it is to those who
come now. I am not sure that aDy
railroads were built at that lime
west of the Mississippi river, and
do not think there was any; but
know right well that none were in
existence west o f o f the Missouri
river for many years after that
date.
Persons going to Oregon or Cal
ifornia had their choice of three
routes lo cross the plains; with
leaving some point on the Mis.
souri river, say early iu May, and
arriving in Oregon in September,
October, or iu some instances
November.
The other routes
were
by sailing
vessels
via
Cape Horn, or by the Isthmus of
Panama- W e selected the former,
and like the great roajirity o f the
pioneers o f those days, our “ mo­
tive power" (not to mention our
neverfailiuu “ shanks' ponies") we
started with teams composed of ox-
eu, and sometimes a gentle cow
that never failed to give a supply
o f milk on the journey.
We started with a six months'
supply o f provisons, well knowing
that we should be that time in
reaching our destination. W e left
the Missouri river neat the present
site of Omahs, May 1, and here
hade adieu to civilization, entereng
at once upon the much heard of
bat little known western plains.
Near the bank o f the river was a
large building, an Indian agency,
ana this, exceptmg a very few di­
lapidated adobe buildings at Pori
Hall, and old Fort Boise, was all
the signs o f civilization that were
to be seen on this tedious journey
until Oregon was reached, five or
six six mouths Inter,
I
could tpll of the
timps
wp
had iu crossing many o f
the steamers made impassable by
the npriug storms, and how we con­
verted our wagon beds into ferry
boats; bow we endured the fierce
storms o f rain, hail, thunder and
and lightning while traveling tip
the Platte river and crossing (he
Rocky mountains. O f how, in or­
der to preserve our eyes, we bad
to wenr veils on aoconot o f the
sharp-cutting sand blowu by the
ever-preseut winds from the west;
o f the laborious tramp, tramp,
tramping all day beside the slow-
ploddiDg teams; and the pleasure (?)
o f standing guard a part of every
.night to prevent our teams being
stolen by Indians, or what was
worse, by renegade whites, who had
“ left their country for their coun­
try’s good,” and robbed and mur­
dered the emigrant adlibitum.
Wood to cook onr frugal meals,
also water for onr teams, was some­
times difficult to obtain, and in
some instances it was neeessury to
travel all day and night to obtain
these essentials of life. When we
reached the alkali region a number
o f onr cattle died, and we bad to
leave one o f our wagons.
I t will never be known how many
men, women and children who
started to this coast 50 or more
years ago, for the purpose o f mak­
ing this their home, have died,
some from disease and many by
tbe band of the ruthless savage.
Th eir name is legiou. Early in
October we reached the settlements
in Oregon, nil alive and some o f us
in better health than when wpstart-
from Illinois. One o f tbe disap­
pointments we all found was tbe
want of better mail facilities, but
which wns common in many new
countries. I am afraid to say for
fenr my character for the truth may
be questioned just bow long a time
was required to receive an answer
to a letter sent to fiieod s “ in tbe
states." bnt it was several wepks if
not months.

Honesty in Mining.
Washington, April 2.— Repre­
sentative Van Duser of Nevada to­
day introduced a resolution in the
house which is in the interest of all
legitimate mining ventures iu the
United States.
The recent speech made by Mr.
Van Duser in the bouse has brought
him thousands of letters asking
him to make a fight against the pro­
moters of wildcat schemes.
The
follow ing is his resolution:
“ Resolved, T in t the secretary
of commerce and labor be and is
hereby requested to investigate the
dishonest and fraudulent raining
companies conducting their opera­
tions and sale of stock by advertis­
ing and sending circulars through
the United States mails, whereby
thousands of investors have been
defrauded through misrepresenta­
tion in circulars and printed matter
containing exaggerated and false
statements, and to investigate tbe
organization, capitalization, profits
and sources from which dividends
are paid; also the conduct, manage­
ment, promotion and methods of
the mining companies and mining
corporations in general who con­
duct their sale of stock by means of
advertising
and
circularizing
through the use o f tbe United
States mails, and to make an early
report o f the findings according to
the law to this house.”
