Mr.. EDITOR - On what grounds do
the citizens of Lewiston build such q
glorious future for the city? I have
been assured. on many occasions that
ere many years roll by Lewiston will
be the metropolis Of this upper coun.
try. Its situation on the confluence of
two rivers, they tell me, will pour into
its lap the profits of y mighty com.
merce. Its central position surrounded
as it is with acres Of productive land,
they tell me, will make it an emporium
Of trade. On this ground alone has
real estate advanced in wealth, and been
greatly enhanced in value by buildings
and improvements. Mr.. Editor, these
people certainly deceive themselves.
The conjunction of rivers, the long piles
oftenements and cottages, the adjoining
territories are not the certain forces
that 60 to make up great city. Il
must be men, active, Industrious, enter.
prising men, without whom your retro
grafton is certain aud permanent. The
rivers will offer to other cities less pre-
tentions now, than yours, the commcrc'
that you are insulting. and these ricl
acres about you will raise up cities tina
will encourage the husbauman to trad
within its borders. The little hamlet
, of the hills on every side Of you ar
, your competitors, in the mercantil
! department and those who would be t
0 your profit find it to their pccuniary ad
vantage to remain a. home. X.

0ea GRAND tirT, the town burned ny
the indians, was the trading point of the
Lou creek mines, situate about 80 mllrs
east and south of Warrens camp aud on a
tributary of the middle South fork of 's,e
Salmon river, in the western part of Lemhi
county. The Indians are supposed to have
been sheep-eaters of Salnen river, whose
residence has been on the main Salmoa
between the middle south fork of Salmon
aud the mouth Of the Lemhi river. They
are akin to the band that occupied the
south fork, and who met their fate at the
bands of the Weiser settlers few weeks
ago. The whites abandoned the Loor
creek camp to the Chinamen some month:
ago, and no whites were living at Orc
Grand city at the time of the attack and

Army Bill In Congress.

In the house March 9th, Sparks in
troduced the army appropriation bill.
He stated that it was substantially the
bill which passed the last house, with
the reorganization features stricken out.
It retained the clause prohibiting the
use Of troops at the polls. Provisions
allowing deficiency in one item of the
appropriation for pay, to he made up
from excess in any other item under the
same generel head, was stricken out.
The opposition came from both sides,
the provision being regarded as yio-
lation Of existing law aud dangerous
authority to be conferred on the depart
ment. The provision in regard to rail.
road companies, during general business
passed without discussion. 1t was re-
ferrcd to committee OF the whole and
the house went into committee.
A motion TO reduce the army to 15,-
900 men was rejected by vote Of 5S
to 1l9.
Reagan moved to strike out the pro.
vision in regard to appropriations fol
regular supplies, incidental expenses fol
barracks and quarters and Transports
ton.
| McCook suggested a difficulty tina
might arise if riots should suddenl,
break out in some quarters, and thu
President in reply to call, even from
democratic governor, to send troop
there, could not do so while there Wa
no provision made for the expense q
! such transportation Of troops.
After discussion, the provision va
, stricken out, all the democrats an
, some republicans voting in the affirm,
tive.
Section six, relative to the use I
troops at polls, having been reaches
: was passed over for the present.
The section authorizing the secreta,
Of war to issue small arms etc.. to an
!, college or university which may desi
them, and which has $50 male studen
was stricken out.
: The committee then rose, having di
F; posed OF all but two or three ordina
provisions of the bill.
