WINTER QUARTERS OF
JOSEPH. n

JOSEPH. -.
We are informed that Joseph and
his band have been for several weeks
past camped in the valley of small
creek emptying into the Grand Ronde
river from the east, and short distance
from the junction of Grand Ronde with
the Snake River. This place is about
zo miles from Lewiston, about IL miles
from Lake Waha, and near the line be-.
tween Oregon and Washington. That
TITS a warm and sheltered place for Win
ter quarters, even more SO than the
Wallowa valley, must be apparent from
the fact that its altitude is much less:
30 far as we can learn these Indians
have not molested the settlers in the
Wallowa valley during the Winter.
We further learn that at the time our
informant learned of the whereabouts of
this band there were So males all told
among them capable of bearing arms,
some OF whom were not originally be-.
longing to the band, but have recently
Joined them for what purpose may be
hereafter developed. How far Joseph
can Influence other Indians among those

on it, to rally to his war cry in case Of
an attempt to, coerce the band upon the
reservation is still matter of specula.
ton. Certain it is that to attempt to
execute the orders from the department
before the Spring opens and the coun.
try can be traversed easily through the
mountains by these Indians, the easier
can Joseph be made to see the folly of
a resistance, and the more readily can
he be induced to come in peaceably.
Rumor has it that so. soon as he finds
that the government is in earnest, he
intends to push his way with all his
availables to east of the Rocky noun
tans. This may be mere speculation as
to his intentions, though the rumor is
that he has so expressed them. We
think the odds are too much against
him for him to make any general demon
STATIONS of hostility, unless he be in
auenced by some of that spirit of des-
peration which Influenced Capt. Jack
and his band of Modo's. Being fore.
warned of his determination not to go
u on the reservation, should forearm us
against any contingency that might
arise from the secret plans of hot
headed band of Indians who imagine

lians, although it might be easily and
peedily quelled, for the report of it a

election upon our agent and military
authorities should some one white per-
on be killed whose life might have
zen saved by prompt preventive meas
res being adopted. With Indians the
7atchword should always be ''forewarned

CAPITALISTS OF OREcov.

AAA0AA0U A0eu u oregon ana Portland III
particular are seeking chances of invest
ment Of their money in enterprise:
promising some developement of the
interior country. Hitherto the grea,
aim has been to invest in city lots and
in building magnificent buildings till
tho accommodations of the city have ia,
exceeded the demand of the business tc
be done, and city property has greatly
deprecated in value, while the grea,
natural resources Of the country tribu.
tary has suffered for want of means to
properly develope them and cause them
to yield products that would otherwise
contributed to the business and wealth
of the city. But Portland or some of
tho monied men Of that place are be-
ginning to see that they must branch
off to the interior aud do something to-
wards aiding in building up the enter
prises there, if they would expect large
permanent trade and prosperity at
home. Well they might do this for
they must know that the real source of
all their present wealth has been the
products Of the interior, and large
portion Of this has come from east of
the Cascade mountains, in which direc.
tion they have hitherto expended but
comparatively little. Among these
sources Of wealth have been prominent
our placer mines. These are greatly
diminishing in Importance from year to
year. But other industries are taking
their places and promise to become
more permanent. Such as agriculture,
manufacturing and quartz mining.
These, require capital far more than
have tia placer mines. The first to
construct steamboats,, railroads | and
other thoroughfares for the transporta-
ton Of, the bulky agricultural products.
The second to construct large manufact-
uring establishments to convert the raw
material into articles for sale and con-
sumption, Aud the third to transport
heavy machinery into our mountain
mining camps, erect the same and open
the rich quartz veins there known to
exist, and place them in proper work
ing condition. The citizens of the in
terror, though fully apprised Of the ma
tural resources of the country around
them, yet have not, unaided' by capital
from outside, the means Of pushing for
ward these enterprises and hence the
interior, country possessing these ad-
vantages. has been at a comparative
stand still for years since these natural
advantages have been known. The
recent attention of the people of Port
land given to the importance of rail
road leading from east of the Cascades
to that city, the Improvement of the
navigable rivers in this direction, and
to the quartz mines of Baker an | Grant
counties, and their manifest inclination
to chance investments in these direc-
tiops, augur the dawn of new era in
the history Of progress in our rich
country east of the Cascades, and we
think that this change ofpolicy of the
capitalists Of Portland will be greatly
to their ultimate advantage, aud give to
ourspeopic. living in this interior some
hope Of useeing this country greatly
