The Dalles Mountaineer. June 12th.
Tlie story that the Oregon Steam
Navigation company was about to
sell out to the company lepresent
ed by Jay Gould, appears to be
true. AVe can't see that this
change is going to be of any benc-
lit to the citizens of Tim Dalles.
J ii fact, we shall be sorry to see
the change take place. If we are
destined not to have competition
on tlie Columbia river by steam
boat or railroad, then we would
much prefer tlie old company to
remain in possession. The Oregon
Steam Navigation company is a!
monopoly; but, as such, it is the!
lies! one on tlie Pacific coast, and
we "would rather bear the ills -we
now have, than

t.he Indian situation in which he
took the ground favoring the In

breaking up of several of the reser
vations. The reverend gentleman
is gradually changing his original
ground upon this qnescion, and is
a clear reasoner from the facts and
events that have developed them
selves within the two years last
past. lie is not so wedded to the
old Indian ring theory that he will
not, like some others, relinquish it
when convinced of its failure to
benefit either the Indian or the
white man.
