CAUSES OF INDIAN HOSTILITY.

Indications of a general Indian wal in
the spring are thickening, and unless some
unlocked for change in the situation occurs
a bloody campaign will become a part of
the history of 1873. Army officers esti-
mate that Sitting Bull can command a force
of seven thousand warriors, and with our
present small army it will be difficult to
place an equal force in the field against him.
Newspapers and public men discussing the
subject make use of the stereotyped
causes for Indian disaffection, namely: rob-
berry, deception, treachery and the Union
Pacific fallacy, removal of the Spotted Tail
and Red Cloud camps to points where their
supplies do not pass over that railroad. We
selves that the Indian is an abused creature.
We fail to see where the robbery of the red
man comes in. If there is any steal
ing INDUCED in by Indian agents
it is the government which is
robbed and not the Indian. People in
this part of the world, where every
opportunity is given to witness
the operations Of Indian officials,
are not prepared to accept the pre-
vailing eastern theory that because a man
is an Indian agent he is a thief. Neither
are they prepared to believe that there
is any well behaved redskin within the
Sioux domain who suffers from hunger or
cold. We see a constant stream of supplies
flowing into their country from the gov
eminent depots and We know
that these supplies are placed into the hands
and mouths of bucks, squaws and papooses,
whose only return for the generous charity
bestowed upon them i . grunt and a growl
and a threat to 60 upon the war path if the
provision pile il permitted to diminish.
The idea that the removal Of a portion
of the Sioux to the Missouri river il cause
for war was wholly the creation of white men

The scheme is in opposition to the interests

By the combined vote of democrats and
administration republicans Hilliard has
been confirmed in the senate to represent
this government at Brazil. The objections
urged against mis- confirmation were that his
morals are not up to the required standard
and that he was a red hot secessionist in 1861
and helped to take Tennessee out of the
Union. But ne got the appointment.

Dear Sir:-About one year since I found N.Y.
self in a feeble condition from general debility.

several bottles, was restored to health, and dis
continued its use. l feel quite confident that
there is no medicine superior to it for those com-
plants for which 1t is especially prepared, and
would cheerfully recommend 1t to those who
feel that they need something to restore them to
perfect health.

A CHANGE. Although Portland and

A GRANGE. Although Portland and
the Walla Walla country have protited
immensely for the last year by the hot
competition between the two lines
of ocean steamers running from tue
former place TO San Francisco, ii has
been at the expense of Seattle and
Puget Sound generally. The fact of
this competition aud the absence of any
competition on our line has diverted
the tide Of immigration northward
from It's wonted channel to Portland
and the Columbia. 1t is long road
that never turns. however. and u change
in this condition of things is now being
brought about. We notice that the
regular fare from Portland to San
Francisco il now set at $50 and Sl6.
while the fare from Seattle is $50 and
SIS. This makes an even thing of it.
Matters are now so adjusted that any
further competition on the Portland
line is rendered absolutely improbable
for long time TO come. Competition
on this line during the current year is
possible. though from the present out
look not probable. However. without
this should tho present status be main
tanned. our city will reap harvest
this season she has missed for a long
time past. That great bugbear. the
Columbia bar, will drive the current of
travel this way. The Dakota on her
last trip brought up such lis. of pas
sengers as she has not had for months
before. II was suggestive of old times
to see her decks crowded once more
with merry throns of passengers a.
she moved into the dock. Those dis
posed to question the benefits which
full current of travel setting in upon
our city would confer, may look back
upon the past and count the profits we
have gathered from it heretofore. To
what thing more than another did we
owe eur flush prosperity two years ago,
aud why is Walla Walla and her neigh.
boring towns so flush with financial
sunshine to-day.

unnecessarily; that until the naptha bust
