VANCOUVER INDEPENDENT.
THURSDAY, JULY %, 1873.

The Port Townsend Press, which
has been sued for libel by Governor
Ferry, has a big job ON hand to defend
itself, as it finds all but two or three
of the newspapers in the Territory to
fight, as well as the Governor and his
friends. However, it wades in very
pluckily, determined to make good
fight for itself, and says many hard
things about those who have con-
demned its course in this matter, but
if its remarks about all the others con-
tain no more truth than what it SAYS
of this paper, the Press will never
draw any prizes for truth telling. After
shaking up its nearest neighbors the
Press takes hold of this paper, saying:
Then follows several lesser lights, each run
by some henchman of the ring and nourishcd
with Government pap. The Vancouver In
DEPENDENT, under the auspices of the Land
Office at the place-its recent editor was for
merly Ferry's private secretary.
ats recent editor is not its present
editor does not dictate its course, and
most likely would not if he could.
The INDEPENDENT is not published
"under the auspices Of the Land Office
is quite as independent of it as it is
OF all outside influences. We wish all
the newspapers, and all persons, pol
iticians and otherwise, in this Terri
tory, to understand that this paper is
controlled by no clique, or ring, or set
of men, in any way, shape or manner
whatever, and that so long as the pres
ent editors name stands at its head he
will endeavor to serve the public in
terests while conducting an open, hon
orable business. If any man, or news
paper, commits an act deserving of
censure, if we see fit to censure we
shall do it, regardless of the danger of
being put into any ring, or having any
ring put upon us. In time we shall
establish the fact that this paper is in
dependent in politics and principle, as
well as in name

Indian Scare in Yakima,

We are permitted to make an Eek
tract from a private letter to citizen
of Vancouver, from w. l.. Stabler,
who recently returned home to Yak
ina county. Knowing how far this
valley is from the actual seat of war,
it seems as though Indian scares were
very easily produced. Mr.. Stabler
says:
| got home on last Wednesday;
found everybody badly frightened and
building forts. Some of the reserva-
ton Indians told the settlers they were
going to attack the whites, and it was
evident they intended to do it, for
nearly all of them except Wilbur's few
pets left the reservation and took their
stock and squaws and children into the
mountains, and there is no telling
what they may do yet. But l think
the danger is all over unless the hos
tiles get to Moses. In case they do, l
think he will be unable to keep the
majority of his tribe from joining
them, but l hope Howard will head
them off. Last week small party of
Indians attacked some men who were
herding horses on the other side of the
Yakima river and took some of their
horses. Mrs. Bankers brother, who
has been ranching horses on the other
side of the Columbia river, started for
this place eight days ago and has not
been heard of since. 1t is feared that
he and his wife are both killed by the
Indians, as it is only two days travel
from there to here.

The salmon run is very ftful this
season, and although it has been an
nounced twice as over for 1873 it is
said that in the operations of last week
the catch of salmon on Wednesday
night, July II, was very large, and
perhaps the largest of the season. The
average of one cannery was 80 fish for
each boat out. One boat took one
hundred and eleven. The catch was
reported equally good all along the
river.
