WHEREABOUTS OF TuE HosrIIEs.

Hon. Cal. Il. White, Of Little Sal
mon Meadows, Washington county, /.
T., says the Idaho Statesman, was in
town yesterday. From him We learn
that Lieut.. Galley with fifty mounted
men is now on the South Fork of the
Salmon river. The Indians, who are
thought TO number about 100, are sup
posed to be camped on q bottom at "a
point where the Seeesh creek and the
east Fork OF the south fork enter the
south fork of the Salmon. Numerous
smokes are seen to rise from the bot
tom indicating the presence of a eonsid.
erable body of Indians. The approach
es to the Indian camp are through steep
rocky deliles necessitating the utmost
caution in approaching the place. The
last heard Of Col. Bernard was.,that he
was working his way down the Salmon
from the neighborhood of Loon creek.
With these two bodies of troops ap
preaching the Indians from different di-
rections, the settlers along Warren's
route are under apprehensions' that the
Indians may escape and raid the set.
tiers in the valleys of the Weiser. This
naturally produces some uncasiness,
though no Indians have been seen
only their smokes aud signal fires on
the mountains. Mr.. White thinks that
the presence OF small volunteer com
pany on the route. between Indian val
ley and Warren's would make that sec
ton Of the country safe and be of great
assistance to the settlers. He says that
the crops along the route are looking
splendid.

THE DEuocRArIc POSITION.

A Republican exchange wants to
know in what condition the actions of
the late Congress have left our party.
The condition was never better. That
Congress has placed our party on the
position that the people can be relied
on to SECURE free and fair elections.
The Republican position is, that the
right of the Executive to interfere by
means Of the army and partisan scruti-
ners at elections is absolute, and that
the people must stand aside. The Re
publican doctrine was notably executed
in 1876, when, by means Of the ma
chinery illegally created, they set aside
the will of the people and the electoral
college, and stole the Presidency. They
openly propose to steal the Presidency
again by the same method, and the
Democratic position IS that they shall
not do it.

MEMORIAL DAY N VIRGINIA.

Northern papers having stated that
the American flag was not displayed in
the city of Winchester, Virginia, the
Ee,os of that city says "These gem
tlemen must have had their eyesight in
bad repair-temporarily, let us hope, as
many had. Otherwise they would have
seen the Federal flag floating from sew
eral houses, and large one suspended
across the most cer tral part of Main
street, the whole procession passing un-
der it." Referring to the charge that
the rebel yell was heard the Neles says:
eve dare say that some day that same
yell viii be heard in the fore front of
the battle when foreign invaders shall
tread the soil of the North, and that it
will then be as sweet in Northern ears
as were the cheers of the Valley Rifle
men when they, first of all the rein
forcements to New England, greeted
the Valley Colonel in command at Bos-
ton, and were responded to by him.

aE woN.r REFrsE.

There has been a great deal of posi-

NAL of General Grants willingness to
accept the Republican nomination for
President. Ex-Secretary Borie. who
has been his travelling companion for
the last year in his peregrinations
around the world, lhas probably had
better opportunity to know Grants in

In this country. That gentleman has
recently returned home to Philadelphia.
A paragraph in the New York Tribune
says of him: "Ex-Secretary Borie,

GOV. ALIENS DEATH.


Last Friday, Hon. VIM. Allen, ex-
Governor of Ohio, died after an illness
of very brief duration. He was in
Chillicothe on Wednesday, apparently
in most excellent health and spirits.
His first mention OF illness was on
Thursday morning, but he did not re-
gard his condition of sufficient conse-
onences to receive attention until four
in the afternoon, when he had symp-
toms of chill, and DIR. Scott, his som
in-law and physieisn, induced him to
take some medicine and so to bed.
Mrs. Scott remained in attendance on
him, although Governor Allen consid-
sidered it useless and urged her to re
tire. He was up several times during
the night. About $50 in the morning
he arose suddenly. left his bed and
staggering into chair, died without
word. DIR. Scott had seated himself IL
an adjoining room, and responded mas
tily to Mrs. Scotts call, but before b,
reached the governors side he wa
dead. As soon as his death was known
Gov. Bishop issued very eulogisti
proclamation reoiting Gov. Aliens pub
lie services, and directing that the flag
of the capital be displayed a. hali-mas'
and closing the state offices ON the da
of the funeral. Gov. Allen was an III
hinching Democrat of the old 'sehoo
and under his leadership Ohio wa
wrested from Republican rule fe'
years ago. The Republican press d.
famed him during his life, but now tn
". + Times says: "Amid acerbiti'
and excitements of constantly renewe
political struggles, it is well to reca
the fact that this man, now beyond Il
reach of praise or blame, was homes
consistent and courageous"

Hardly any State in the Union has
advanced and is advancing so rapidly |
as Oregon, which has many advantages
over other tho western states in the
quality of the soil, the number Of its
navigable rivers, and tho character OF
It's population. This is typifed by the
extraordinary growth of Portland, the
principal city. where it is said during
the past year, not less than 1000 new
dwellings have been put up, and fully
10000 persons have been added to the
population. The immigration there has
been extraordinary in that time. The
Eastern quarter of the State is rapidly
settling and to this fact the Indian war
OF last summer is partially ascrihed. a
number of railways, mainly narrow
gauge roads to transport grain to tide
water, have been built there lately, and
railway is now projected hetween
Astoria and Winnemucca, on the line Of
the Central Pacific. Every thing augws
well for Oregon. The upper region OF
the Columbia river seems destined to
be ono of the great graneries of the
West. The crops now raised show q
remarkable average per acre of superior
quality, and have never been known tC

The Portland papers inform us that
lat Tuesday there was fled at the
County Clerks Office in Multnomah
mortgage for sG,000,000, the largest
amount ever borrowed by an Oregon
corporation. The mortgage is executed
by the Oregon railway and navigation
company, the directors Of which iilcd
their articles Of incorporation some
weeks since, TO the Farmers Loan and
and Trust Company, of New York, as
trustees. This colossal sum was bor-
rowed by the o. l.. & \. Co, and IS in
tended to bc used in pushing forward
the different railroad and telegraph
lines mentioned in the articles of incor-
poration. The mortgage covers all the
eompany'a property, steamboats,, bargcs,
real estate, railroads, machinery, ma
terial, etc, and all the property 20 be
acquired hereafter BY them. The
amount borrowed il divided into six
thousand bonds Of $1,000 each, drawing
six per cent. interest. payable on and
after the first day Of July, 1909. at the

Company in New York.

TUE NEW OCEAN CABLE.

The new American Cable Company
have made all their arrangements for
laying their cable, and, Judging from
the programme, revolution in subma-
rine telegraphy will be accomplished.
There will be laid 1000 miles of cables
One powerful cable will be laid from
New York to mid-ocean, there it will
branch Off to different European coun-
tries, saving the necessity of number
Of cables and land lines, the whole cost
being S15, 900, 900 for what would cost
10000 by the old method. BY
the use Of newly-invented instruments,
working speed of eight times greater
than under the old system will be OBJ
tanned. The tariff for messages viii
never exceed twelve and a half cents a
word, and will probably be reduced to
ten cents q word. With the new in
struments, the working capacity of the
cables between each Of the five coun-
tries with which the company connects
will be from 125 to l60 words min
ute, and it is expected that the number
of words annually dispatched viii be
60,000,000 instead Of 100000 as at
present by existing lines.

Oregon Railroad and Navigation Con:
pany will Immediately begin the exten-
sion of their narrow gauge line in the
direction of Idaho. Other narrow
gauge roads tributary to the Columbia
will be built, including line down to
Portland. The company have already
contracted with John Rorch for another
new steamer, larger and faster than any
along the Pacific Coast. Chief Engi-
neer Henderson, of the Oregon, has
gone East, and writes that the ma
chinery has been selected for the new
boat, which viii be the very best, and
that the new steamer will surpass any
on this coast, and equal to those on the
Atlantic. This looks like business on
