Last Tuesday evening petition was pre-
sented to the City Council asking Tor the
passage OF an ordinance which would cause
all places Of business to be closed on the
Sabbath day. 1t was signed by forty of
our business men, and their request would
surely have been granted had the City Coun-
ell been satisfied that they had q right to
pass such law. The charter was examined
and no authority for such action could be
found, but for fear it might have been over
looked, the matter was referred to the Com
mittec on Ordinances. There is already a
State law IN existence which covers the
ground completely, and if our peace officers
will attend to their duties In enforcing If
they viii confer great favor upon the bust
ness men of the city Here is the law:
II any person shall keep open any store, shop. gro

in the future they viii have to suffer the
consequences. II all shut up it VIII work

One day this week we had the pleasure Of
psrusing letter to his fathers family from
Rob't a Foster, who is now taking tour
through a part Of Europe We would have
liked to have published it, but It was too
lengthy. It was written at Milan, june path,
and contains a graphic account of his trip
through Naples, Rome, Venice, Florence
and Milan. While at Naples he visited the
Rains Of Pompeii, and yirgiTs Tomb, and
gives very graphic description Of his trip to
Mt yesuvins It took one hour and half
to ascend the mountain, and only six minutes
to come down At Venice he visited the
BFidge of Sighz, of coarse, and also took in
st. Marks Cathedral and other points of
interest. He expected to arrive at Berne,
Switzerland, about the Sth of this month.
Theparty were having ali the fnn imaginable,
but Bob thinks viewing the sights IN those
cities Is about the hardest work he ever had
ANYTHING to do with.

For the past week or so cur people have
listened several different times to discourzes
and lectures from Rev Robt. W. Douglas,
OF Wilmington, Ohio, minister Of the
Society of Friends. He attended prayer
meeting at the q. P. Church on Wednesday
evening of last week, and at that time deliv-
cred short discourse which at once secured
him great many warm friends and admirers.
On the following evening he preached at the
Evangelical Church, and on Saturday even
ing delivered temperance lecture at the
rooms of the Young Peoples Christian As
sociation- On Sabbath he preached at tbs
U. P. Church both in the morning and even
ing to very large audiences, and all whc

this week hostilities actually broke out be-

them before either were much weakened
from loss of blood, and the affair was
thought to.be settled when Fronk paid his
fine, but it was not to be So Preparations
were made for regular riot when the next

explained to the hostiles what they might
expect if they should ''break out, which
had the effect of tanning them down. Since
that time Mr. Edgar has refused to let any
Of them bring their hacks upon the platform
at the depot, and out of this has grown
several lawsuits which will be tried this

A man is now making tour of Oregon
calling on all dentists and making them pay
him money for the privilege of manufactur-
ing the rubber composition for false teeth.
He claims that the process is patented by
the company. he represents, and they expect
to collect royalty from all dentists using
it. He was in Albany about week ago,
but failed to catch either of our dentists,
DIR. Gray being in San Francisco, and DR.,
Smith up in the noun tains. This is an age
of swindling, and we advise our dentists tc
look into the matter well before they pay
over much money. This travelling agent
noses around and finds out just about how
dentist is fixed financially and then bleeds
him for as much as he thinks be can obtain

We this week received letter from J..
Frank Miller, written at Camp Cornelius,
Grant county on the 18th of July. The
account of the Indian operations IN the first
Of the letter we have in substance already
published. Here IS the remainder of the
letter:
There are parties Of renegade Indians pass
ing through here, stealing horses and firing
on snssH parties, but there has bean no one
killed 50 far as / know. Last Tuesday as
two Of our men were coming from Canyon,
they rsn on to s party Of Indians IN ambush,
but tho eye Of the fruntiersman was too
quick for Mr. Lo, and taking in the situation
at 3 glance and before Mr.. Lo knew what
was the matter he was surprised himself and
put to flight.
Some soldiers from Boise left here yester-
day morning and = scout called Jack Rattle
snake, alias sCarsen, was short distance
ahead. Between Pine Hollow and the Mid
die Fork Of John Day, he spied noble red
man laying IN ambush for them, about so
Yards from the trail The scout took in the
situation Immediately and attracted the In
dams attention by saying halo, friend, -
which caused the Indian to throw his head
back and lose his aim. No sooner had he
done that than Carson fired and shot him
scouts horse to jump, but he shot again and
killed . squaw which was laying close by
tbs buck. The horse scared again, when
the sinch of the saddle parted and his horse
threw him off and kicked him as he fell,
but he had not much moro than struck the
Groand when he fired again and wounded
another Indian. he says the Indians EerS
sighs In number, but he put them all t
fight, and all his own companions ran too with
the exception of one. After the killing, his
brothers in arms rushed up and scalped tht
Indian, which caused Rattlesnake to remarh
that where he had been Indian fighting il
was customary for every one to scalp his
own Indian.
Tho Indian excitement does not seem K
check the course of true love, for we had s
wedding in our camp at O'Clock P. n O.
