what Merry Predicts.

The editor Of the Inland Empire
.diseoarses upon the railroad outlook as
follows:
There is pretty positive proof ahead
Of US that the long isolation Of the 10
land portion If Oregon aud Washington
Territory will be broken during the com.
ing Summer Not only is the Northern
Pacific sure and certain to build at least
one hundred miles this year, hut the
extension Of the Utah Northern read
is almost equally certain. This road
will be known as the Oregon Pacific,
and viii be narrow gauge road for the
present. Rnmor has it that Jay Gould
who is the moving spirit in this matter,
has purchased controlling interest in
the steamship line between Portland
and San Francisco az we'll as in tho East
and West sidc railroads. This will ef
fectuallv block of Stanford's attempt
10 control the carving trade of Oregon.
He could have got hold Of the railroad
and steamship property of the German
bondhol1ers long ago Ind he been will
ing to pay them anything like fair
price for their property. But he pre-
ferred to squander the profits Of the
Central in chimerical effort to civilize
Arizona, and now his opportunity in
Oregon isgona by.
On the other hand the crafty Gould
has been constantly looking out for an
opportunity to come West, and has
been quietly extending tbs feelers Of
his Union Pacific road into Utah. The
time has now arrived for a bold and
vigorous stroke across the continent,
and as Willard represents Gould. we are
expecting to see work pushed ahead a,
once. Once lot Gould get his road
through to tide water on the Pacific
aud line Of steamships from Astoria
to Hongkong Is one of the certainties
Another will be the purchase of the
Oregon Steam Navigation Company's
line Of boats and portage railroads BY
the Oregon Pacific railroad; and wher
that time comes and the profits Of tn,
Columbia river carrying trade ar,
spent in New York. instead Of 10 Orc
eon. then we wish to ask and shall asl
the question, How do the farmers o
eastern Oregon like the change from
King Log TO King S.ork? We saw
larger and wealthier company swallowe'
up by the Central Poetic lords and be
held their palatial steamers converto
/, into immigrant hulks and ferr
boats. The o. s.. N. Co.'S chief own
ers are all rich. all getting old an
tired Of hard work. aud all DESTROYS O
leading an easy and Uncomfortable old age
They will not run single boat in or
position to a railroad train If they ca
help it; aud the day will surely com
= when Gould will control the Columbi
trade unless the Northern Pacific ge,
ahead of him.

Judge Alanson Smith, of Boise City
is spending few DAYS here. Judge S
has been travelling 10 various sections
Of Idaho during tho past few weeks, aud
gives most entertaining account OF the
rapid progress that is being made in
opening up the country in various di
rections. All over the north he says
the country is making marvellous strides
10 the way Of being settled up, and new
buildings, cultivated farms, and fields
Of waving grain meet the eye at various
points. where but few short years ago
there was naught but an unproductive
waste to Craze upon. He states that
the Spokane country and the country
around are destined to become garden
spots Of the universe. and the rich soil
with which that whole northern region
is blessed, must, in few years, max
prosperous homes for many thousand
settlers. Towards the east the outlook
is even more encouraging. The conn
try around Malad. the Salmon river
country, Yankee Fork, and the new
country Of Cassia are rapidly filing up
with settlers and prospec.ors. Agents
are already in different localities, look
ing up sites for families from the east.
and the tide Of emigration is steadily
setting in the direction of Idaho. The
Judge To- sanguine that brilliant flu
ture is in store for this territory. and
Va believe he is correct in his predic.
tions. He argues that country

A Model Confession.

Several years ago. 10 Western town, young
lawyer. member Of a large church, got drunk.
The brethren said he must confess be dsmur-
red. de knew the members TO be good people,
but they had their little faults such as driving
sharp bargains, scfewing the laborer down 10 low
wages. loauing money at Illegal rates, misrepre-
senting articles they had for sale. ETC. But they
were good people, and pressed tho lawyer to
come before the meeting and own up his sin of
taking glass too much for they were tempe
rance people, and abhorred intemperance. The
sinner went TO the confession, found large
gathering OF brethren aad sisters. whose b,,wed
heads rose and whose eyes glistened with pure
delight as tbs lawyer began his confession Il
confess" he said that | never took ten per
cent. for money" On that confession down
went brothers head with groan. Il never
turned poor man from my door who needed
food and shelter" Down went another head
81 confess | never sold skim-mIlk cheese for n
new one,' whereupon a woman shrieked for
mercy. "a confess that ! have not been Phur-
saical and self-righteous and have not sought to
inlure or persecute those who have not happened
to agree with me ) when down dropped nume-
rous heads. Il confess that never played the
hypocrite, and do not lie, ard that have not
used religion as a cloak when down went sew
eral other heads, and among them the heads of
the very ones who were SO anxious that he
should confess. land now IN conclusion, if any
oil the brethren can place their hands upon their
hearts and IN the presence of God and this as
sembly say this much, and say 1t truly, shall be
the first TO rejoice, and SO will the angels in
Heaven rejoice A pause, bat no response
from any quarter, and the meeting adjourned
without taking further action in the matter. The
confession was too heavy for the brethren, and
they were glad to get out of the scrape.

AMERICA seems bound to civize Africa if
there is any possibility of doing it. Some good
