THE INDIAN SUPERINTENDENT.

THE INDIAN SUPERINTENDENT
Gen. Milroy, the newly appointed Indian
Superintendent, with corps of lean, lank
and hungry-looking aspirants for subordi.
nate positions in the political aims. house,
arrived by Wednesdays stage. They
have since, we learn entered upon the dis.
charge Of the duties they are so we'll quail
flied to gil, and VIC expect to witness a
decided improvement in the condition Of
the Indians. Our Territory, although not
deficient in the number Of persons willing
to sacrifice their best interests by holdin g
office, unfortunately had none whose com.
handing ability fitted them for superiintcnd.
ing this important branch of the civil
service. So thought Mr.. Garfelde, at
least, and to him be all the glory of this
fresh importation of modern ideas and
improved theories for the amelioration of
the condition of mankind.

rcpar'oi that twa men, nam. :Aci,lcy and
H.owu. vii Known IN British Columbia
nave transferred ,he scene Of their dcprc-
cations t. the Sound. They steal from
tie settlers ani have in several instances
offered ihrir booty for sale at the stores
y few days ago they chased Il man aud
Indian in canoe, below Seattle, until
obEscd to abandon the pursuit by the APP
rcarancc of the steamer Eta IVhHc.
Mr.. T.. \. Ihorndike, who returned
from below last Wednesday, says that on
Monday morning these men suddenly ap.
pearcd at Port Madison, armed to the
teeth, each with two revolvers and other
weapons. They were on foot, having ar
rived at the place by land. Boldly enter
ing Meigs & Gawlcy's store, they called
for such goods as they wanted. When
served with all they required, they dis
played their pistols in threatening man
ncr, stated their names aud character, and.
cautionins persons against following them,
took their departure. The pirates were,
however, tracked to deserted cabin in
Eagle IIarbor, about one mile from Port
lslakey, in which they had quartcrcd
themselves temporarily. A party of six
persons, headed by Sheriff Williams, of
Kitsap county, and Mr.. Primrose, of Port
Madison, soon after proceeded to the cabin
in question: which they quietly surround.
ed, taking shelter in the brush and timber.
After skirmish, in which Shepley was
wounded, a messenger was sept to Port
Blakey for reinforccmeats, but before they
arrived the "piratcs" escaped to the
woods Pursuit Immediately ensucd, and
in brush with Brown, one of the Sher-
ifs party was injured by a charge of
buck shot in his arm. A large party are
in pursuit at last accounts, with a pros
pcct of capture Of the malefactors, as
every avenue Of escape was cut off. The
people Of Port Blakely offer reward of
$500 for the capture Of the dcspcradoes,
dead or alive, and our colonial ncighbors
offer $3.50 for the same object.

the partnership formed in Olympia, when Mrs

canvass for il in connection with her journal
now falls to the ground Put not your trust

Not so, friend Prosch. Is it impossible
for you to grasp the idea that people may
differ as to expediency and still agree 10
principle; may dispute and still be friends
Mrs. Duniway will experience no such
difficulty, we assure you. The partnership
which excited the jealousy Of the TIL.

WALLA WALLA RA1LRoAD.-A Port

WALLA WALLA RA1LRoAD.-A Port
land paper says that the greater portion of
the iron for the Walla Walla and Colum-
bia river railroad has been received, and
that the work is making rapid progress.
1t says the bars used on the road differ
very materially from those in common use
They are about two and q half inches
broad, thrce-quarters of an inch thick and
twenty feet long. Wooden rails will first
be laid, on which will be placed these
strip-like rails, and securely spiked down.
This temporary kind Of road will last some
time-un,l the company at present en-
gagged in constructing grow stronger in
means, or the increasing trade and travel
of the road justify the company in incur
ring greater expenses in building more
permanent track.

COsT OF OFFICEs.-Under this cap.
ton the Tribune announces, by authority
Of letter from Washington written by a
gentleman we'll known in this Territory
and whose veracity is unquestioned, that
the Gubernatorial Office cost the present
incumbent $4,000; the Indian Supcrin-
tendency cost $4,000; and the Surveyor
Gcneralship cost $4,000. Itappears from
this statement that Selucius is not averse
to turning an honest penny" even if it
is by "turn Of the wrist" We are not
a bit surprised.

DESIRABLE LoCALITY.-TheC ourie,
learns that DIR. j. III. Roundtree and others
have been exploring the country between
Boisfort Prairie and Humphreys, in the
Southern portion of Lewis county. They
report large quantity of excellent land.
The Doctor says on one creek alone there
is sufficient quantity of excellent land
for large settlement. when it is taken
into consideration that this land is within
four to ten miles of the railroad, and tina,
the road is about ready for the iron, it is
very desirable land for homes.

JUST AS We EXpECrED.-In our last
paper we convicted the Courier of profess.
ing a sham sympathy for the. Tribune
proprietor in his adversely. We certainly
expressed nothing but kindly feelings to
MIR. Prosch; sentiments we believe our acts
in the past most amply substantiatc. The
Courier, as usual, rctorts "youre another"
and tries to make the public believe that
our professions of sympathy are not genu.
inc. 1t will be remembered that the Cou.
rier few weeks ago, not only accused US
of writing IriJuue editorials but of con-
tributing to its pecuuiary support. If this
was true, is not fair to infer that our SYM
pathy is more sincere than that of a jour-
nal whose mission, as declared by its prin-
cipal proprictors, it was to" root out the 1yi.
bune and break up Old Prosch" =? AS the
Courier has already sunk the major por-
ton of the corruption fund raised for its
maintenance, had it not better discharge
its editorial force and place Goodtimc' s
parrot on the tripod? 1t is quite as apt
in repetition, and will not bore with prosy
and Improbable essays on purely magma
ry subjects.
Washington standard. [volume] (Olympia, Wash. Territory) 1860-1921, 1872-08-03

"NoT QUITE DEAD"-The Courier
has come to the conclusion that the DEM
ocratic party is not quite dead. 1t basis
this conclusion upon recent conference
held by Brick" Pomeroy, and few 9th.
ers, in New York, at which they decided,
if possible, to effect an organization, and
save the Louisville Convention from prov
ing an entire fzzle. A few months ago,
the Courier insisted that the party was
dead, and without hope Of resurrection.
Is it not driven to a desperate alternative
when it not only gives the lie to its former
assertions, but is compelled to pin its hope
to the coat-tails of such men as Brick
Pomeroy? That is the question.

A PROPER EsTIMATE-TheP Portland
Bulletin is edited by man who was a
Democrat until Ben. Holiday bought him
to do his dirty work, and this is what the
Oregomian thinks of one who has sunk so
low as to sell himself to a corrupt party
and its mercenary LEADER:
"The bulletin seems to be somewhat puzzled
TO decide what we can mean ty some of our
recent remarks. Let us make our meaning
plain. We mean to permit no mans servant
to crack plantation whip about our ears.
We simply admonish such to keep in their
proper places" .-

PRospERoUs.-The Tribune compares
the assessment rolls of this county for the
past five years and makes very credita-
Bile exhibit of increase in the valuation of
real and personal property. The assess.
mcnt of 1868 was 100000; for 1869,
100000; 1870, sl,lOO,oO0; 1871, ST.
3O2,ss9, and for this year it foots up ST.
63s. 641, which is more than double that
Of 1868. The increase of valuation the
past year has been 1886, 900. The county
collects an aggregate of s25, 1926 for taxes,
distributed as follows Territorial, sc. 552 ;
School, $685. and county sl2, PIG.
