Conspiracy SQUELcHED.-A Copperheed con-
spiracy has been squelched at the Dalles Jusc
before the election a Loyal Lacquer of very fine
scent thought he had discovered an inkling of a
conspiracy to overthrow the best government on
earth He determined to join it with view to
expose it. He first applied toan Unterifed, who
referred him to Major v T., who at once
took the measure of the man. The Major pro-
posed to have the Lacquer initiated into the Or
der Of American Knights. The time was set at
midnight; and the patriot" was led, blindfolded
by the redoubtable Major through every mud
hole that he could find, until at last they came
to a house in the suburbs of the town. Opera
tions at once commenced. The "Grand Arch
was formed by two parallel rows of Copperheads
holding their hands clasped as high as their
heads Under this "Arch" the initiate must
pass on his. hands and knees; each Knight be-
slowing the accolade by a hearty kick, with
heavy boots, on the part that be sits down on.
He then becomes Knight, but must still pass
through the trials of the cold and warm douche
tossing in blanket of unsayory smell, and two
hours Of "Joshing;" after which he is kicked
into the street, and cry of vengeance raised
the initiate fleeing for his life. All of which
was duly performed, and the Union is now sup
posed to be safe

EDS. STATESMAN ~ wish to inform
you that the wind blows very hard here to-
day, and that it rains | wish to join in the
tempest and see if we can blow any good to
whom it may concern,
The subject of building Grist Mill for
the benefit of the farming community has of
late been much talked Of | wish to CON
tribute my mite to this enterprise, and hope
you will lend helping hand by admitting
to your columns brief articles from contrib
utors upon this subject That it is to every
farmers interest that the farmers of Walla
Walia valley should have Mil to grind
their own grain will appear from the fol-
lowing considerations
1t will enhance the value of their wheat
by nearly one half, which the figures will
show. The present price Of wheat at the
mills is $3.50 per bushel; the price Of -four,
5000 per hundred. One bushel Of good
wheat will make torty-fve lbs. of superfne
-four, which, at six dollars per hundred
would be for As lbs, S270 cts for the flour
alone from bushel of wheat. Add l3 lbs
Of bran and shorts, say at 2 cts. per ID;
(26 cts J allowing two lbs for wastage in
cleaning, and you have 1926 per bushel for
good wheat at present rates for wheat,
8 $50 cts.), leaving ST ,46 to to the mills
for grindiag. or within four cents of half Of
the value of the farmers labor.
2. 1t viii afford a reedy and a asure mar
ket for our wheat at nearly dod1Iy remuner-
ative prices Say the farmer raises five hun
dred bushels of wheat at present prices al
lowed by the millers, $50 dollars At his
own mill, at S2,96 per bushel, it would
be $l480, or profit of S73O on his FIVE
hundred bushels of wheat. Say the mill
costs $4,000, and that he owns a share
$500 per share) and then one crop Of wheat
pays his FIVE hundred dollar share and leaves
him on his crop $3.50. Say he pays
for the hire of miller and for other neces-
sery help and repairs, Sl30; then there is
left, after paying his five hundred dollar
share, one hundred dollars more than be
gets by selling his wheat at $3.50 per
bushel Thus in one year he pays his 5000
share in the MILL his $l30 to carry on the
mill, and makes 500 more than if he sells
his wheat at present prices.

WHO CAN ANSWER PA passenger from Cali

per:
Can you tell why it is that is always more
pleasant to come from California than it is to
go toward it by steamer? Why the passengers
are less dirty in their habits, less hoggish at ta
BILE, more orderly and more pleasant coming
eastward? That such is the case, everyone who
has travelled both ways well knows. Onewould
naturally suppose that, with load Of passen-

have roughed it in the mines for several years,
the very opposite would be the case. VIII some

Big FISH SroRY.-A gentleman who recently
came down from the Boise mines tells US of a
most extraordinary fish which was caught at
Old's Ferry on Snake River. The manner of
the catching was peculiar It appears that
while the ferrymen were crossing some teams to
the Oregon side sturgeon of vast size ran
against the upper gunwale Of the boat In a
moment afterwards he was seen making for the
Idaho shore, apparently in terrible agony. He
ran half his length out on the gravelly beach,
and while in that position one of the men at the
ferry-house ran down to the beach with pick
in his hand and struck it into his head holding
him until help arrived He was then dragged
up on the bank, killed, cut up and weighed It's
length was ten and a-halff feet, total weight, CAB
pounds weight of hea 4, l48pounds. Theish's
head was fractured across the front by the col
lision with the boat, and hence his strange freak
of running ashore.
