Everlasting the Energies.

II is not advisable for any of us to over
task our energies, corporal or mental, but
in the eager pursuit of wealth or fame or
knowledge, how many transgress this salu-
tary rule. 1t must be matter of great i'm
portauce to all that do SO to know how
they can regain the vigor SO recklessly ex-
pended. The remedy is neither costly or
difficult to obtain. Hostetter's Stomach
3itters is procurable in every city, town
and settlement in America, and it compen-
safes for a drain of bodily or mental ener-
gy moro elfectually than any invigorant
ever prescribed or advertised. Laboring
men, athletes, students, journalists, law.
yers, clergymen, physicians, all bear testi-
mony to its wondrously renovatng powers
1t increases the capabilities for undergoing
fatigue, and counteracts the injurious eff
teets upon the system of exposure seden-
tary habits, unhealthy or wearying avoca-
tons, or an insalubrious climate, and is a
prime Alternative, diuretic and blood depu-
rent. 42-4w

Eagle Eyes Opinion.

The educated Indian EagIe-Eye of the
Cmur de'Alenes, who has visited the De.
partments at Washington and especially
the Indian Department and enquired into
its status, expresses himself as follows in
regard to the treatment of his race
sThe aboriginal races are tho native
sons Of the soil, having an inalienable, IN
defeasible, hereditary right thereto Might
practically makes right. His race must
submit to the inevitable aud yield, the
weaker to the stronger. The Government
on the other hand while mauifesting its
superiority aud exercising its authority,
should neither forget nor cease to be mag
unanimous and just. In Eagle Eyes judge
ment, Indians should be treated as other
citizens and subjects, with rights neither
greater or abridged. The forcing them
upon reservations or adopting towards
them distinctive policy, is unjust to all
concerned In the matter of occupying
the public lands, for example, the would
be settler as well as the Indian is deprived
of his liberty of choice. Rebellion, insnb-
ordination TO law or any malfeasance on
the part Of either white or Indian should
be summarily punished and suppressed by
the strong arm of legally constituted au-
thority.

Of peace instead of our annual Indian
war, and would the people be glad to
have this done?
Suppose the board of indian commits.
sioners should urge all the Indians to
take homesteads at once, and should
open the reservations to public sale and
use the funds for permanent Indian
schools Or for mills and shops, and to
pay for head mechanics and farmers to
instruct them, as the treaties of 1855
provided, would the present public SEN
timent approve and sustain this policy?
These questions are practical at this
moment. We can hardly doubt that
the answer will be in favor of such
measures from every part of our Pacific
northwest. G. II. ATKINSON.
Rev. Mr.. Atkinson has on former &C.
casions had much to say about the treat
ment of Indians. But not until the
above was published have we seen any,
thing emanating from his pen, that we
Thought gave any prospect Of a rational
solution Of the vexed question. We now
concede to him nationality upon the
question. For more than IL months
the Teller has from time to time adj
vocated the policy which the Rev. gen.
tleman now for the first time suggests.
Hope he will follow it up.

DON'T FORGET 1T,

If you are troubled with nervousness are
disheatened tired of life, fear death or feel
out of sorts as the saying is, you may safe
~ conclude that you have tie Dyspepsia
or Liver Complaint. The liver is very apt
to become torpid this season of the year as
posons arising from stagnant water or de-
caying vegetation are more humorous and
arc through inhalation taken into the
blood Unless the liver is strong and &C.
tive, and furnishes n supply of fresh and
pure blood'to drive out the impurities, the
above mentioned SYMPTOMS surely follow,
and if not needed, end in more terrible dis
eases and death. Whites Prairie Flower
proves itself the Great Liver Panacea. Its
action on the liver is different from any
medicine ever compounded. It's cures are
truely wonderful. Try it. Price twenty

across the Grand Ronde river on. the new
Wallowa route, and they refused. AL
though the site of the bridge is in that

by this structure, yet the commissioners
could not see that it would benefit Dayton

SETTLEMENT OF THE INDIANS.
A Thousand Indians Homestead Farms
on the Reservation in Oregon, WASH
ingt0n and Idaho.

This is possible under the treaty
pledges made in 1855. Suppose the al
lotments Of 40 to 800 acres each to $50
Nez Perces, $50 Umatillas, Cayuses and
Walla Wallas, $50 Yak lnas, 100 Spo-
kanes aud Cnur d'Alenes, 100 Warm

lalip and adjoining tribes and 100 on
Grand Round and Klamath reservations,
the quota of | 900 would } filled. Sup.
pose that these Indians receive their
patents from the president as the treaties
provide, and that the titles to these
farms legally vest in them and their
heirs, on condition that they occupy and
till portion of the same, aud that
majority or all of them get the idea of
ownership which no change of Indian
agents or Indian policy can make void,
and suppose majority of these Indians
shall within two years have houses, gar
dens and fields of grain, horses and cat
tie, on these homesteads, and begin to
have some of the comforts of a settled
home life; suppose that several hundreds
of their children attend school, and that
some of them are learning to work on
the farms or in mills and shops, would
such class Of facts offend the whites,
or in any degree injure the country?
Suppose tho Indians have begun their
farm life under these pledges, but have
lost courage and hope by the long delay
to grant them patents or certificates to
an acre, and hence have felt no motive
to work on lands not their own. would
such class Of facts be strange, or wrong
on their part, or unnatural even Tor
white men? How long and how hard
will white man work on farm not his
own or on claim to which he can get
no title!
How would he feel to BE- called a lazy,
worthless wretch, fit to be kicked and
chased out of the community, or shot
because he will not build house, till a
garden or cultivate field without paw
or ownership?
Suppose the Indian department. OF
SoVerhtnent pegin 10 look ac this matter
and assign to Indians their pledged
homesteads and to grant patents to them
on the reservations as fast as these can
be made out, in due form, with well de-
fined limits, according to the u. S. sur
veys, will 1t be a means of quieting the
ferment that has every year prevailed
among the Indians as the white settle
ments have crowded more and moro up
ON them2
VIII thousand Indian owners of
farms on these scattered reservations act
as a constant barrier to war parties, out
laws, and the hostile runners who pass
from tribe to tribe every season to stir
up strifey
Suppose the board of Indian commits
sioners authorize every Indian agent to
appoint an Indian police to detect and
arrest every criminal aud bring him be-
fore legal tribunal for trial, and thus
act with white sheriffs and coustables TO
preserve the public safety and peace,
would such plan be probable means
