The Outlook.
Tho present outlook for our fnrm
Cvb to reap n golden harvest, is not as
favornblo as wo could wish. The war
ploud which in the cnrlior part of tho
season thrcatoijcd our ovcr-thp
Atlantic neighbors in contondin
ptrifo, has passed quictlv over, leav
ing their political horizon almost clear
Nothing now, save thp rumbling of
dissatisfaction is heard of tho war,
which is not enough tp create any
better tone in the foreign markets for
our broad-stuffs. Tho price for grain
now is very low, with little if any
prospect of its improving.
Tho war policy of nations abroad
jnay not bo a good one, but tho fann
ers of this country always look upon
it with smiling countenances, and rub
together their brawny hands whenever
such cheering news, to them, is her
alded across the waters. War in tho
old country means dollars to the till
ers of our soil, and always brings a
fair remuneration they so justly dc
gcrvo, But as jt is not tho policy of
foreign nations to go to war merely
because H will benefit tho , American
farmer by furnishing' him . a good
market for his wheat, and as the homo
demand is not sullicicnt to uso tho
surplus, he must content himself with
the market as it eomos to him. Mis
lamor for a better prjco will have no
,uoro effect to obtain it, than chaff
thrown to the wind. Tho farmer can
IWiiso the grain, but ho cannot find a
inarkct when nono exists. Tho only
ivny out of tho trouble is, in tho fu
ture ho must slop raising so much
grain, and dovoto.it part of his lnnd to
other productions, and by so doing,
reduce tho yearly surplus to such on
extent that fair prices will be realized
l'or all,
Many of our farmers aro badly in
debt, and hoped to realize sullicicnt
from this year's prices to enable
them to meet their obligations and
place themselves on a more desirable
basis with which to begin another
year. This, many of them will not
bo able to do,' and should their credi
tors swoop down upon them and do
tiiand their pay, many would be driv
en to the wall by tho stress of tho
times.
Fortunately for tho farmors of this
rounty, wo believe that by another
Year, tho home demand will bo so
largely increased that it will not mat
ter so much whether wheat is in
demand abroad or not," as wo have
every reason to believe that wo will
iac an incrcssoof population within
tho no t twelve months, of from i.'0,
000 to Sfi.COO. Willi the vast mining
enterprises that will bo carried on
next Minimcr within our county, wo
dinll expect a good timo for all.
Anoiiii.is council of tho Umatilla
Indians lias been arranged to try,
If posiblo, to induco the Indians to
(,dve up their reservation, as yropossd
by tho Slater bill. Tlioro was a cotin
v 11 somo months ago, hut scheming
white men, who wore so thoroughly
Imbued with their own solllsh interests
that they used every effort possible to
Influence tho Indians to not accept
niiy such proposition as was coalaiuod
ju tho Slater bill. Tlicso men, pro
truding to bo the friends of tho Indians,
succeeded in their designs, Tho In
dians if left nlono would lmvo nceop
tcd tho proposition, Tho government
has been thoroughly informed how I ho
matter stands, and stops will bo takon
to prevent it repetition of such inllu
pnee again beingusod by theso damna
ble eeltMi hounds, who, for tho sako
pta little self agrandizomont, would
f,U so every avenue of public wolfaro,
pud even steal tho lousy blnnkots from
the very Indians whoso ouusos thoy
have e pousod with so glorious niag
jmmnlty.f!') Tho reservation con
tains about 880,000 aoros, most of
V'hich is Misooptlblo of tho highest eul
jUation, and ought to bo (brown
pcu to tho suttlomout.
As (he slugging fovor has now
Mnin; this Stato, wo may expect to
poo tho columns of our newspapers
full of tho thrilling sconos consequent
upon tho introduction of tho mnuly(?)
art. Already, from t wo ,to three col
umns of eomo of our exchanges aro
devoted to tho llielly and Campbell
light, to tho exclusion of mora valuable-
matter, It must bo vory onter
taiiilug for those who spend their
(into and money to witness twobrutish
men walk out and endeavor to pound
each other into miuco moat. One of
our exchanges dovotes two and u half
columns to stato that Molly got badly
beaten by Cnmpboll. Thoso slugging
matches 'may Inlereot a eompnrativu
few, but wo opino tho majority of
thoso who nay for a uowepapor, would
rather have it Idled with more whole
some food.
Tnrnv. 1 n desire on tho part of soma
of our t'oiigronsnieu to create sevoml
now OM-ctiUvo departments, whurebv
n few mru hungry olllc-tMikii's may
