London, Aug. 21. A dispatch to

( CALIFORNIA DEMOCRACY.
Government Control of Pacific Roads
a Vital tamo.
Ban Francisco, Aug. Ul. The city
Is swarming with politicians, here to
attend tbo Democratl Jntate couveul ion,
which convenes In ther Baldwin theatru
today. It is general predicted that
the convention wllC be sensational.
The politicians are.alat sea, not even
the knowing ones an predicting the
results with any decree of certainty.
For the gubernatorial lloniluation.tuere
are many candidates. 4 James Budd, of
Stockton is an avowejj aspirant. Bar
ney Murphy, of Han JOse, is also being
industriously bormedj
The question of refutidlng the Pacific
railroad's indebtednesses also a vital
Issue In California, a$dr is certain to
disturb the convention. An auti-rul!-road
platform is to bo 'presented to the
convention, and has, already been
drawn up by D. M. Ilclmas. Promi
nent Democrats who have seen the pro
plank, pronounce it a '(scorcher."
WHAT IS OOINQ ON.
Sa n Fbancisco, Aug. 21. The out
look previous to calling' the Ddmocratlo
state convention to order is that the
race for the gubernatorial nomination
is between James H. Budd, of Stock
ton, and "Barney Murphy" of Pan Jose
with Budd In the fend. At this .hour,
however, the success of no candidate
for any position is assured. The atti
tude of the convention Kb the railroad
question promises the liveliest kind of
convention. There is a strong deter
mination ot the majority of the dele
gates to adopt strong resolutions In op
position to refunding the Pacific rail
roads debts, and urging the govern
ment's control of the Pacific roiids.
An attempt will also be made to de
nounce tbe Democratic senators wLo
defeated tbo Wilson olll,'ktn the Eonate,
and will even be tried tomontion Gor
man, Brico and Smith by name. A
delegation of women are endeavoring
to secure the equal suffrage p'ank in
the platform. '"

THE STRIKE INQUIRY.
Chicago, Aug. 21. A. J. Carroll,

public industries would be beneficial,
and read a letter from a friend in New

Editor Jeurnal: As there has
been a number of statements made
through the press, concerning the laud
on the Bitot. Indian reservation, soon
to bo thrown open for settlement, will
you kindly give ono who has lived In
theyclnlty of tho reservation for tho
past 21 jears, FpaceIu your valuable
paper fir a brief description of this lo
cality, as we do not wish to mislead
any hotneeeeker, or boom the country
by misrepresentation, we shall endeavor
to describe the laud as they appear,
having lived on the reservation fr a
time and being well acquainted with a
large portion of tho reservation.
This oountry was formerly a part of
Tillamook county, but the act creating
Lincoln county, gave this laud to the
latter county. Within the boundaries
ot tbe reservation are about 232,000
acres of land, 48,000 of which has been
designated and allotted to the Indians
in severalty, the balance to be opened
for settlers under the homestead laws.
Tbe agricultural lands are mostly along
the Blletz and Salmon rivers and their
tributaries. Tbe Slletz heads lu or
near the summit of the coast range and
empties Its clear and sparkling waters
into the old Pacific, near tho center of
tho reservation north and south. This
stream Is very winding and crooked
and runs to every point of tho com
pass e're It reaches the ocean. Tbe
mouth of tho bay Is very narrow and
on either side Is rolling sand hills. Ex
tending up the stream on the left bank
for a distance of thrca'miles, are large
bodies of tidelands very high and only
overflowing in the winter or during
full moon tides in June. At this point
the mountain comes to tho water's
edge and on tho right bank Is another
large body of tldeland. From this
point on up the stream for a distance of
about 20 miles to the head of the tide
there are upon either side of tho river
largo tracts of bottom lands covered
with crabapples, alder and vino maple
and occasionally a small prairie of from
10 to 40 acres. Along the mountain
sides back of tho bottoms, with the ex
ception of about three miles that Is very
rooky and rough, can bo seen fine saw
timber, fir, larch, spruce and cedar,
touring up towards tho sky from one
to two hundred feet; a greeu nnd living
reminder of one of tho mauy Indus
tries that is Been to spring into existcuce
lu this favored locality, na soon as the
president's proclamation shall have
reached tbe ears of tho home Booker.
Six miles above the head ot tbo lido Is
what Is designated as the lower farm.
Durlug former years the reBorvo was
divided Into three farming districts.
The mlddlo farm, where is now located
all tho government bulldings.tbe upper
and lower farm, both of which had
white farmers, but for n number of
years past ono farmer located at the
agency has directed the Iudlans In
their farming pursuits; the lower farm
Is nearly abandoned. Here one may
travel over a fairly good road for u
distance of six or seven miles to the
ageucy farm, passing one lino belt of
land after another and Boeing nothing
but vacated houses and broken down
fences and the fields growing up to
weeds and thistles, many of the In
dians having either died or moved to
the coast, there to flsli or while uwuy
time according to their ancient cus
toms. At the agency aro somo well
kept farms Inoludlug the government
farm worked by the Indian school boys
under the direction of tiu Industrial
teachers, Ilete many of the Indians
are located. In fact moat of tho In
dians having adopted themselves to the
white custom of gathering around the
country stores and exchanging Ideas
aud talking politics, Continuing as It
Were on up tho valley of the Hllelz
through a fine farming country for
about eight miles we oomo to u point
where the mountains again seek the
river's edge, Hero for several miles the
country Is rough until you pass through
the gorge when the bottoms again open
out. Hero are good homes on the bot
toms nnd rolling beach lands,
The northwest comer of (he reserva
tion Is at the mouth, of Salmon river ou
the north hank, Baimou river Is seveu
miles nortu of the Bllr.U hay aud like
Its neighbor Is yry winding and
crooked, Along (his stream are also
tine tide sod bottom Isnds and the
Highest of all in Leavening Power. Latest U. S. Gov't Repord
ABSOLUTELY PURE
country between the two rivers along
tho coast Is excellent graz'ue land.
The Blletz river Is navigable for river
boati for a distance of twenty miles
arid, owing to the largo amountof fresh
water It altords, being fed by myriads
of Htnaller streams, It hta been said by
old aud experienced fishermen that
more salmon outer this bay, than the
Yaqulua and the Alsea combined.
Cann ry men are only awaiting au op
portunity to enter this the promised
laud to open up the fishing Industry.
In many places along tho coast range
the forest fires have consumed hun
dreds of thousands of dollars worth of
limber, but the hand of provldenco has
protected this belt of country and It
stauds today as nature has left It, green
and Inhaling Its own fragrance, touring
and waving on a thousand hills only
awaiting the hand of capital and man's
Ingenuity to place It upon tho market
of the world.
While at the present time the nearest
point to a railroad, from this valley 1b
Toledo, a distance ot seven miles, over
a wagon road. There Is a possibility
that as soon as these lauds aro open for
settlement thatthe Southern Pacific,
will continue its system on from Alrlle,
in Polk county, to Newport down by
the sea, a distance of about forty miles,
as there would be plenty of commerce
to justify tbo extension of tho road.
Tho Iudlans aro not allowed to sell
their lands for a period of years, but
they aro to become citizens and are al
lowed the privilege of leasing their
lands, which opportunity they will
speedily embrace, as farming Is not to
their taste.
We do not mean to cast any refit c
tlon upon any of the former agents who
have been on this reservation or the
present one, when wo may say that the
farming Industry Is going backward,
luBtead of forward, for tho Indians do
not caro to farm and the agent has no
power to compell them to work.
Again, the Indians are all becoming
educated and, like the whlto man, do
not want to follow In the samo voca
tion all their lives. We make tbo as
sertion that within two or three years
after the opening of tho reservation
that there will not bo over a hundred
Iudlans living upon tho reserve.
Twenty years ago over 3000 Indians
had their homes on this reservation,
today tho census shows less than 600.
Civilization and the ways of tho white
man have thinned their ranks and
many havo passed to the happy hunt
ing ground. The Indians are, as a rule,
well educated and will make good law
abiding cltlzons.
While homesetkers will not bo able
to get but little clear land, tho Indians
having selected tho open lauds, thero
ure homes for many. The day has
passed when a man can load his posses
sions Into a wagon, go west, set his
stakes and claim broad acres of prairie
land. Uncle Sam's broad domain has
withstood the test for many years and
has provided millions of homes for her
subjects, but now she has no more wild
west. If wo tako Horace Oreoly'a ad
vice and go farther west we will find
that where rolls Oregon is also civiliza
tion. The opening of this reservation
means a great deal for tho new county
of Lincoln, from tho fact that the
government will assume and pay all
tt.xes ou the 18000 acres allotted to tho
Indians, under tho provisions of tho
bill which has just been passed by con
gress. About 140,000 will be disbursed
to tho Indians and the balance of
1100,000 will bo placed to their credit
and be paid out to the minor chlldreu
as thoy become of age. Forty thousand
dollars put Into circulation these Dem
ocratic times will grease the axles aud
start the wheels of industry with a
merry time, which will be had locally
at least. B, V. Jonks,
