SAwAMIsH County, July 6, 1856.


Ed. PIONEER AND DEMOCRAT:
/ desire, through the medium of your
paper, to say to the people Of Washington
Territory, that the citizens Of Sawamish
county are not willing for the Territory,
which bears the name Of the illustrious
Washington, and the authorities which
have so manfully held her reins, to be de-
rided and stigmatised.
They are not Indian sympathizers, nei-
ther do they sympathize or defend those
who aid and give shelter to our enemies,
while their hands are stained with the
blood of our best citizens.
They do not cry out against the authori-
ties and condemn them for trying to defend
their homes aud fresdes from the torch
and scalping knife Of the savage.
They do not croak about war for politi'
cal fame, or pecuniary interest.
They do not desert their country in time
of need, but frown Indignantly on toryism,
and say they are too proud to divide and
wrangle among themselves when their
country is involved in an Indian.
They are ready and willing to assist ia
the present war-to help fight the battles
of our common country. l am proud to
say that the citizens Of Sawamish do moi
turn from the path Of duty when our coun
try call They have done all that was pos
sibIe for a people to do. There are only
five men in the county who are not at theil
countrys service.
We unanimously condemn the courst
pursued by the learned bar at Steilacoom
also the resolutions passed, same day, a
the same place, by the same people, pur
porting to be by the citizens of Pierc'
county. Now readers, you are all probably
acquainted with these circumstances, ant
what could have been the design of thos'
men =? l can freely answer the question
1t was not for tho good Of our country
but to crafty their own selfish desires, ant
TO effect unjust ends.
When l think of the picture Of the pres
cut war, | am lost in wonder Of astonsh

THE FARMING COMMUNITY, having
become generally convinced Of the great i'd
vantage of grinding Corn and Cob for Stock,
the only question to be considered il which IS
the best Mill for the purpose! In all the
cast iron Mills heretofore offered, very seri-
GUS objection has existed, a want ofdurability,
or liability soon to wear out. In the Excel
sior" that objection is removed: The grinding
surface, which is the only part liable to wear
out, consists Of rings and casts separate from
the mill, and when worn out can be removed
and replaced at a cost Of three dollars. This
uill is strong, simple in construction, easily
pdtup, and can be moved from place to place
without difficulty, and will crush 10 bushels
per hour of com and cob for stock, and grind
meal for family use. The Excelsior" was
