A PIOMEER ADVETI BE.
Ed. Cliainlirt'itti, aet li brated Indian
cout In the pioneer day of tlreguo,
Is publl-ihlllg hh jvoolleelioua Iu the
Arrow. This incident U IntereotlB.
It huj-pened ut Vani.'ouver, Washing
ton, during the lntr ufter the
Whitman ma-sacre. Afier n-'uint'
the women who had been mad pris
oners ut the sljiihier und delivering
them to friends at Oregon City, Cham
breau was prevailed on to continue
in the employ of the Hudson Ray
Company and r-m:ilu at Vancouver.
Tha incident he tells thus:
At tills lime, all available men ?nul
formed into companies and started
lor the wat ol war, leaving the coun
try around Vauin.ivi r and settle
ments of Oregon almost unprotected
It ulo luipeiiis that a great manv
cases of the mettles occurred among
the Indians, some of them tiTiiilimt
ing fatally, and e-iet'ially as th
news o Hie killing ol so
many of the l!o-.tons al Walla Walla
had reacheil the vteit side of Ihe Cas
cades, many Indians congregabsl
around Vancouver in the ex
pectation of hearing of the de
feat of the whiti's ill the
upper county. Special precaution
was then taken, ami the fort put ou a
wnr footing. An extra bastion mou'ii
ed with two heavy guns was erected
iu front of the stockade facing the
river, la-sides the one already placed
on each corner. The stockade (forti
fications, was built out of logs, stand
ing criK t, say thirty feet high, about
eight to ten inches in diameter, and
each log sharpened to a point on the
end. Two large gates, one in the
south and the other iu Ihe north,
were wvurely fastened to the bul
wark; In each of these largo gat in a
smaller one was placed, just largt
enough to admit one person at n
time. Tho gates were closed at all
times ; it sentry was stationed on the
in.-iili-, aid only persons possessing
the password would be allowed to
enter. Old Kruce or MacShall usual
ly occupied the sentry box.
The writer was then especially de
tailed to w atch the movements of.
and happenings among the Indians,
and soon found that two of them
were the main agitators, trying to
incite hostile feelings towards thej
whiles, (iambling ran high, and
war dances were held nightly. The
two Indians referred to above wen
one Lo Coi, a Illackfoot, raised by
the whiti-s, aud a meilicitie-man,
named With llet. ltoth were anient
gamblers, ami the writer in sonic
way incurred their displeasure.
Once, overhearing a conversation ol
the two, be ciime to the conclusion
that his life was conspired Hgainst.
On that day Mi-ssrs. Douglas and
Ogden summoned me to ithem, and
said that something would have to
lie done to allay the excitement
among the Indians. They thought,
if I lie two above-mentioned ngitator
were out of the way, much blood
shed would be averted In the future.
They then infiiinii-il me that I should
sis-to it that Le Coi and Wall Itet
were made harmless; Hll I misled for
this purpose was placed ut my dis
posal, and n permit issued for me to
leave ami enter the fort at my pleas
ure. I low I should execute the or
der of Mesrs. )oiiglas and Ogden
win left to my own discretion. It
may here Is- stated that the agitators,
although leaders, had many enemies
among their own race, as they had
outraged many women and killed
many men of their own race, but
feared on account of their superior
strength. I then laid low for annul
Iht of days, until I had laid my
plans how to accomplish my purpose.
Knowing the Indians well I knew
heir weak points especially.
After passing in aud out of the fort
for a week by night and by day and
watching the movements of the agi
tators, I selected a very dark night
and vi-itcd the various Indian
camps. It istneedless t." iay that I
was prepared for any emergency. I
had provided myself with n txitt l of
Hudson Hay Company' rum, safely
coni-caled under my blanket, ms-es-sary
weapons and ammunition.
From previousexploits I knew where
my game could be found, all I misl
ed to do was to hunt up a gambling
lodge, or w here a w ar daneo was in
progress; these places were tpiickly
reisigniwsl by the noise attending
them. Nearing one of thse gam
bling houses, I pee piil through H
crack and saw about ,'to Indians with
in and watching the game E'-luck-Emu.
This is their favorite game
and played by eight K-rsons, Among
Ihe itTtators I espied Le Coi; the
fire In the center of the lodge plainly
lighting up his f ire. I then entered
tho hut and safely crept up to I
Coi. After a w hile I placed the neck
of my Imttle of rum so it would draw
his attention; his looks betrayed his
longing fur the liquor, sin t, iking up
hi entire attention. I motioned to
the Isittle whether he wanted some,
he assenting with a nod; I again mo
tional fur him to fillow me. He
w as not long in doing this. We took
a little path Ii-udiug through brush
ml cottonwiiod tns-s to the bank of
tht river. When near a awluded
pa) 1 1 tnded him the txtttle. WhlU
In the act of drinking, I .struck him
a heavy blow in the luck u;' Ihe head
with a s-ling shut, felling hiyi t the
ground. He gave jj-t one gr..an,
after which I dealt him s.m.. more
blows and pulled his ., y uut'iif the
trail. After an hour's search I found
the other agitator, and 1 priM-ecdcd
Injust the same manner but not quite
so sui'ci ssiully. The tir-t blow dealt
hlui was a glancing one, and only
partially stunned him. He gut bold
of my left leg, and came very near
throwing me on my back; bad he
sutveeded he certainly would have
killed me, for be drew a "dag," an
instrument very much like an arrow
head, but much luijer. However,
before he bad a i h.,ni-.- to plunge the
weapon into in -, I had dealt him
some more blow s an, I he released his
hold. After linishing his earlidv
existence I scalped him, w hich I had
also done with l.e Coi in true I ndi.ui
fashion, to make il appear that both
had been killed bv enemies of their
own n l iiseeu by anyone I
reached the stock.ul" at midnight.

the democrats l;ts and the populi-ls
twenty-eight. That Is to say, this
eminent democratic seer says thai in
the congress w hich comes into evis.
loniv on March Ith next, the repub
licans in thi hull-' will have a plu
rality of "c over Ihe democrats and a
majority of 'JI over democrats ami
populists. The republicans w ill have
a majority of the congressional dele
gation in twenty-two states, Ihe
democrats in twelve, all In the South
...1 .1 I! a. 1.. , , I .l.
populists in two, i oiorano
ami Nevada, and in eight delegal huh
no party will have a majority.
Of course all the importance that
Ibis prediction has lies in the cir
cunisinnivs that it tallies ou general
lilies with all oilier prophecies which
have I'l-cn made on this point by
democrats as well as by republican-.
The only difference bctwi-cn demo
cratic and republican forecasts i- thai
the democrats put the republican
majority a little Miiallt-r than Ihe re
publicans. The tlstnocrats are just
as contldenl as the republicans that
there will be a republican majority,
but they are not placing it at such
high figures. One of the New York
democratic papers recently made an
estimate on the basis of the changes
shown In the elections of the past
four months from th tlgures of the
canvass of Is'ij that the republican
lead iu (lie next house of representa
tives would be in Ihe neighborhood
of eighty. Republicans are disposed
to place I heir probable lead ut tin or
Hit), or about the same us the demo
cratic margin iu the present house.
However, a lead of eighty, or even
f forty, would do until it could bo
increased in ls',10.
When Colonel Duncan's figures by
-talcs Mre examined bis forecast
-fins conservative. Missouri, for
example, is given four republicans In
the next house and eleven democrats,
l hls w ill be u gain of two for tho
republicans from the present repre
sentation, ami it is altogether reason
able tosiiiipo-e that .they w ill "pull
ip" lo (his extent. Plinois, accord
ng lo this calculation, will elect
fourteen republicans this year, which
is only three more than she chose iu
ihe democratic tidal-wave year of
I !' J. Kansas is given four republi
cans, thru' pi pulisls and one demo
crat. Mont persons will think that
this estimate I too favorable lo both
deiiiocruls and populist-. No demo
crats in that stale look for Ihe elec
tion of any congressman by their
parly in Kansas this year, ami very
few populists iu the state exioct that
three ol their side will bo chosen.
After looking over tho colonel's
ligurist by states the average intelli
gent person would lie ntrongly dis-posi-d
to put the republican liiul In
the country as a whole higher than
this democratic prophet places lt.-
