leaving it fast and trains of merchandise and pro-
visions were pouring in, as the merchants expect
great markets from Warren's diggings next sea-
son. There was some talk of the Indians being
hostile in that region and along the Salmon, on
account of which several of the miners on the
Salmon had left. But on the whole, the white
ruffians that infest the diggings a great deal
worse than the Indians. Robbery after robbery
is being committed with impunity, and no wonder
when murder is allowed to go free punishment.
But the greatest and best planned robbery that
has vet taken place was committed few nights
ago on one of our best and most useful citizens,
the news of which has Just been brought in. 1t
appears that on Thursday night week Dr. G. A.
Noble Of Florence, was robbed of no less than four
hundred ounces of gold dust. The particulars l
have not heard; but there is no reason to doubt
the truth of the report. He was robbed between
Lewiston and Orc Fino, where he was going to
get stock of drugs which he had stored. The
opinion Is lnat ne nad oeen spoIeu from oalmon,
as he was supposed there to have great deal of
money about him, as he had large practice in his
profession.
The big paying claims about the Salmon, are
nearly washed out, and the generality of claims
there are so well worked that the great crop of
gold has been reaped But there will be good
deal of mining there for years to come. The
stores are being well supplied with provisions for
the winter and Spring so that there will not be
another winters starvation. Yours,
A FLORENCE MINER.

THE WASHINGTON STATESMAN
Published Every Saturday Morning.
Editorial Convention.

The editor of the Montaineer proposes,
in imitation of proposition in California
to hold an editorial State convention, that
the editors Of Oregon go and do likewise.
Among the objects of the convention, he
suggests & the fixing Of standard of edi-
torial etiquette He says,
cat present there is great lack of courtesies
that should characterize the profession" and "the
press Itself does not command the respect it
should"
We think SO too at least so far as the
courtesies' are concerned; and if on
meeting in convention, the editors will "fx
standard of etiquette" that will prevent a
certain member of the corps in Oregon
from retailing in public print all the pri-
vate ISLANDERS that he may hear in relation
to the wives of men with whom he fails to
cope in honest debate, they will have ac-
compHshed some good. AS the standard,
of course, could apply only to those who
have no standard of their own, we would,
if we ere in Oregon, advocate the holding
of the convention, and the fixing of a
standard that would confne such.imbecile
members to a position of common humani-
ty and decency Speaking of the editor of
the Salem iAper, the Momtaineer says:
The editor of the Statesman, from his prom
inence, is very well known but even in his case.
we believe ais cotempoyaries would think better
of him had they the pleasure of meeting him IN
social intercourse. OF the balance of newspaper
men, who knows anything ?"
What an admission and oh, lord what
a compliment to the other eds. of the State !!
:. Who knows anything p Gentlemen, by
all means hold an editorial convention; fix
"a standard of editorial etiquette, and
give the editor of the Mountaiaeer rule
of speech that he may not transgress the
bounds of propriety, and then settle for
him the question, OF the balance of news
paper men, who knows anything?'
He proceeds with his compliments:
s'His Satanic Majesty is said not to be half so
black as he is painted, and we doubt not that the
editors of the State in Convention assembled,
would be found to be very far removed from
group of Kilkenny cats"
No doubt they would, by several thou
sand miles; and wouldn't they exhibit a
proper appreciation of the lower order of
music by getting as far away from the cats
as possible?
