OREGON WHEATe

I'D. lNTELLIGEScER Your quota.
.tion of yesterday from the BuU<tin
suggests to my mind two ideas which
shonld ike to see elaborated in you,
paper.
The article referred 10 intilnates tina,
the wheat of the Upper Columbia i:
Oregon wheat NOW, everybody &C.
quainted with the facts knows that q
very small fraction Of the immense
grain crop of the Upper Colum bia il
OREGON wheat. Something like nine
teenth-twentieths of it is Washington
Territory wheat, and in a very few
years tine proportion will be abou,
ninety-nine per cent-because the Ore.
gon wheat land lying near the Column
bia is pretty well settled up, while
myriads of acres of the finest wheat
land III the world is-yet unsettled in
Eastern Washington 1t is not fair
that Oregon should get credit in tae
markets of the world for wheat which
justly belongs tn this Territory
We are Just now suffering that
species of injustice of which Oregon.
ians complained not very long ago.
when California claimed all the wheat
OF Oregon simply because it passed
through San Francisco. Now, the
crop Of Eastern Washington passes
through Portland and is there baptized
as product of Oregon.
The conclusion of your article states
that the owners of large ships do not
like to send them into the Willamette
river" In presence of this fact, the
question is natural one. why can't
the owners Of large ships remember
that Puget Sound furnishes the most
magnificent harbors. with deep and
safe anchorage in several scores of bays
and harbors along her eighteen hun
dred miles of shore, AID that at the city
of Seattle, in King county, there is q
natural outlet for the rich grain crop
Of Eastern Washington through the
Snoqualmie Pass The owners Of large
ships are generally the owners of a
goodly amount of the filthy
lucre that is necessary to build
railroads. Only about two hand.
reda and fifty miles of the Seattle and
Walla Walls Railroad are now uncon.
structed-much of tho way is through
a level country, and the whole road can
be built at an average of little more
than eight thousand dollars per mile,
provided the narrow gauge roads al.
ready built ct either end of the line be
continued through the intervening dis
lance. Let the ship owners take hold
of this enterprise. and get their railroad
friends to do so, aud once an outlet is
furnished to the upper country. it will
only be few years until ten million
bushels of wheat will be poured annu-
ally through the Snoqualmie pass. and
a city of 10000 people stand on the
shores of Elliot Bay. Then the owners
of large ships will no longer live in fear
and trembling about the dangers Of the
notorious Columbia bar and river nav
igation. Let this matter be pressed
upon the attention Of San Francisco
capitalists. and the iron horse will ere
long be snorting through the Snoqual-
mic Pass. and laying the more valuable
than golden wealth of the Eastern
Washington harvest fields at the feet of
the queen city of the New Northwest,
to receive her mineral and manufactur-
ing treasures in return.
Yours, ETC.,
PUGET SOUND.

THE OPERA. An extremely large,
fashionable and delighted audience at
tended the production Of tn. Grand
Tragic Opera Of II Trevatore on Satur.
dsy evening. Entirely different in style
from Martha. it appeals rather to the
sympathles than to the sensibi!ities Of
the audience. From the rising of the
curtain to the end Of the opera each act
seemed To eclipse its predecessor in
orandDess. Mrs. Caroline R,chinps-
barnard, as Leonora, developed an
amount Of tragic power which at once
surprised and delighted her hearers.
Her opening recitative and aria were
beautifully deliverep, and the climax
vas reache on the most popular scene
of the opera. Tho Miserere." and the
Duo following. Mr.. Gates. as Manrico,
only increased his popularity with the
public. and not only in singing but in
action did he improve upon his former
performance. His best effort was the
"Di Quella Pcra" in which he favored
us with high c. Mrs. Henri
Drsyion, as ''Azucena," acted and sung
her part with an ease which stamped
her as an artist of great ability. Pierre
Bernard made bis first appearance in
Seattle in the trying baritone role of
Count dc Luna" and we congratulate
this gentleman on his genuine success,
especially in 1.-THE Tempest OF the
Heart" "Ferrando.' by Mr.. c. Maxim.
and "Ruiz," by Mr.. Morgan, were
creditsbly performed, and both the
chorus and the orchestra added not a
little to the perfection Of the perform
snce. Last, but not least, the cornet
solo performed between the lst and I'd
acis by Prof. Ssyannier. wa. a truly
magnificent effort and places that gem
tlemsn among the greatest cornet
soloists OF the present day. THE
Carnival Of Venice" was alone WORT
the price Of admission. On Monday
evening the opera will he The Bohc-
mian Girl. that most delightful Of
all English operas with sll the artists
in the last. Mr.. Sayannier will again
play a solo, and we bespeak for the
company the largest house of the sea-
son. Efforts are now being made to
have Mr.. Bernard postpone his depar-
turc until Thursday to enable our citi-
zens 10 witness this deserving com psny
in comic opera. Should sufficient
patronage be secured the opera will be
"The Marriage of Figaro" and that
most comic opera Of all Fra Diavolo.'

John RYDER ACQUITTED.

The Ease of the city vs.. John Ryder
was tried in Justice Slaughter's court
yesterday. Defendant was arraigned
for violation of the ordinance against
discharging firearms in the city limits.
]. NJ. Irwin appeared for the city and
w. P. Carroll for the defendant. The
jury was composed of Messrs. Cassells,
Murray, Landau, Herman, John Nagle
and Sparhawk.
Officer ]. W. Howard testified that
while on his way home on the afternoon
Of Sept. goth he saw q man with a gun,
and saw him discharging the gun; then
saw the man hurry toward home, al
most on a run; witness went to the
house, knocked at the door, which was
opened by prisoners wife, who said
''come in" Witness. saw the man
(Ryder) there and said: 81 must arrest
you;" Ryder refused to go, when wit
ness took hold of him and Ryder said
"for Gods sake don't arrest me-"
Witness was at the switch near the
base ball ground, near a small pond of
water; had known Ryder several years
and knew him to be the man who fired
the gun; saw him go into his house;
there are a good many houses near
where he fired the gun; did not say he
would take Ryder dead or alive; didn't
know how long he was lin Ryder's
house; Ryder said witness had NO war
rant and therefore nc right to arrest
him; saw Ryder discharge a gun in the
city limits.
Messrs. w. H. Dudley, W. b.. Tru-
FAINT and p. Mckay were sworn for the
defense, and testified as to the location
Of the pond and the general good char
acter of Mr.. Ryder.
John Ryder then made a statement,
as follows: was in my own house
about 8 O'Clock p. m. on the goth, when
police officer Howard ran into my
house and said 81 arrest you" I said
''you have no right to Arrest me-"
He said "I'H bring you, damn you, I'll
kill you or I'll take you.f Ny wife
said: "For Gods sake don't kin my
husband" He said 'if you had kept
your mouth shut this morning I
wouldn't have done this" Defendant
also stated that on the morning Of that
day he saw a policeman shoot at
dogs, and a y wounded dog ran
past him. He said it was q
shame to shoot or poison dogs that
way, and added that except when they
are shooting dogs policemen are never
seen south Of the railroad.
The ease was submitted TO the jury
after the arguments Of counsel were
heard, and a verdict of snOt guilty"
was promptly rendered.

Arres. Of an Alleged Train Robber.

A man has been arrested in Jules
burg, Colorado, who is strongly sus-
pected and gives every evidence Of
having been one Of the band which
robbed the Union Pacific express car at
Big Springs. The man arrested claims
to be a stock owner from Deer Trail,
and accounts for his being on a jaded
horse in a strange country by stating
that he is engaged in hunting stray
cattle. He was arrested nea Ogalalla
and taken to Julesburg, where he is
held in custody. Telegraphic inquiry
was made of parties in Deer Trail, II
any stock men in that place were
known to be in the vicinity of Ogalalla.
An affirmative reply being received,
descriptions of those parties were tele.
graphed to Julesburg, to see If any Of
them compared with that of the indi.
vidual under arrest. b.
