VANCOUVER INDEPENDENT.
THURSDAY, MARCH 6, 1879.

President Hayes has vetoed the
bill restricting Chinese emigration,
under the excuse that Congress- has
no right to NEEDLE with treaties. Am
erica will therefore continue to be
"the land of the free and the home OF
home of the brave" the Cinnamon
who is free to leave all his virtues at
home practicing nothing but his vices
here, and brave only while corrupting
American boys with opium or slave
prostitutes, or engaged in robbing
hen roosts. The President sides with
the Eastern theorists, who viewed
the Chinese question the same as they
do the Indian question, through
scientific and theoretic eyes, but never
condescend to look at the practical
working OF their beautiful theories.
The result is great injustice to the
interests of the people of this coast,
and unless President Hayes action
on this law is repudiated by the re-
publican party in the East they must
expect to lose the Pacific States.

OhblE, Chllne county. NeDs,
May 9th, 1870.
Mr.. EDITOR PLEASE permit us TO
communicate through the columns
OF your valuable paper to our friends
and acquaintances In Perry county. On
the 2bth Of March we bid adieu to the
mountains and hills of our native coun.
ty. After leaving Pittsburg we trav-
eled on the 7. Il. w. a. Chicago II. r..
Thence the 9. B. g. @. and B, q M. II.
r., and landed in Crete, Neb., on the
18th day OF March at 3 o'clock p. M
The most interesting part of our jour
niey consisted In the transportation of
the train OF cars across the Missouri
river at Plattsmouth In large steamers.
Some OF the passengers were little un-
easy while the cars were sailing on the
rolling waters of the Missouri.
In travelling along the Platte river we
saw. hundreds of wild geese upon Its
waters. One OF the passengers shot at
the wild ducks with q revolver from the
car. After leaving Ashland on the
Platte, the beautiful prairie lands OF Ne
braska opened up to our view as one
vast unbroken plain. This State con-
tains the best agricultural and grazing
lands to be found In the West Marshes
and swamps are rarely seen. The coun-
try and towns are rapidly filling up
with an energetic, enterprlslng and
progressing people from the States East
OF the Missouri river. Quite number
of foreigners, Germans and people of
other natlonalitles also land at differ
ent points here this spring. This part
of the West seems TO be overdone with
emigration.
Hundreds of emigrant wagons have
already passed through Beatrice, Will
ber, Crete and points north of this place
this spring, and "still they come"
These emigrants intend to homestead in
western Nebraska, and In north western
Kansas, many of them are adventurers,
seeking fortunes In the mines of Colora-
do. There are public lands yet in north
western Nebraska, but they are being
taken very fast by settlers. Upon this
subject we will write again, and give
some information for all concerned In
western lands.
We are now living on the west bank
OF the Big Blue river, near the junction
of the Beatrice branch with the b. M.
II, II, Crete is :" End class" city con-
tanning about 1000 inhabitants. 1t Is
growing fast, over twenty houses have
already been erected this spring, and
many more will be built this summer.
A brick bank building 100 feet i'm length
Is just commenced. The farmers are
busily engaged in planting corn. There
has been scarcely any rain here since
last fall and yet the soil is moist, and
vegetation is springing forth with great
vigor. This Is owing to natural pecu-
liarity of the soil of Nebraska. 1t re-
tains In the subsoil strata all the rain
that may fall during a long season Of
wet weather and the surface soil is mois-
tened by evaporation. The roads do not
cut up In ruts and ridges as in the east,
but shortly after the weather clears, they
are dry and smooth again. But in order
to be brief must conclude for this time.

Mr.. EDITOR Your correspondent has been
on tramp of sight seeing. Having noticed
In the Newport NeDs that we have real live
Yutt In our midst, armed myself with pencil
and book and started out in search of -.
Well, as l sauntered along the street, came
across an object which made my heart thump |;
/ thought had found -, but, no was mis-
taken 1t was only suit of clothes hung up
In front of the place of business In which he
is employed. But peering In through the door
saw the object Of my search holding up
ready-made suit Of clothes, trying to persuade
customer they were all wool, but the but
tons. Perhaps description of him would be
interesting. Well, he is of Irish extraction,
exactly five feet, two and a half In height, and
built in proportion weighs precisely ninety
nine and one.half pounds; straight, black
hair, with tremendous mustache, which seems
to be seriously on the decline. oh well,
Charley is a bully" fellow, and we congrat-
late Fl. M. Freed in securing the services Of so
good a salesman and clerk. / next found my
self In Market Square, when, 10 and behold !
the brightness of the scene nearly dazzled my
eyes. Everything is painted white we'll, 1t Is
lovely. In the evening 1t is all life and gayety.
Croquet is all the rage there.
Our friend z. T. Shuler has opened up a mar
BILE yard at No. 900 Market Square, End door
South Of the M. Z. Church. He has put in a
large Bay-window in the front of his shop /;
had some difficulty in getting the window in,
as 1t was larger than the front of his build
ing, but ,neverthelesss he has the Bay-window
also, gave the front tremendous painting
with lime-wash. He is now prepared to do
all kinds of stone-cutting to order hope 2.
7. will succeed, for he is good fellow.
Our popular Burgess and ex-Sheriff, ]. w.
Williamson, who also lives in the vicinity of
Central Park, has been repairing his house
and beautifying the grounds around it he will
soon have things fixed up SO that he will be
right at home.
Sorry to learn that Rev. A. Fl. Spangler
contemplates leaving us has been with us SO
long he will be missed but what is our loss
will be some others gain. He he may be sue
cessful in his new field of labor. ZEPHYR.

Iunlata County, We copy the follow
ing from the Juniata county papers Of
last week.
Within the past month number Of
valuable horses In Tuscarora valley
have died of some fatal distemper.
Last Friday night thieves entered the
summer house of Daniel Sieber, In
Fermanagh township, and stole there
from general assortment of provisions,
and some clothing that belonged to Mr..
Sieber, and also some that belonged to
Mrs. Sieber. On Sunday night the
thieves visited the cellar Of John Sto-
ner, in the same township.
About ten o'clock on last Saturday
morning, building connected with the
Shirleysburg Aims House caught fire,
which In q short time communicated
with the main building--a large brick
structure, all efforts to stop the ravages
Of the flames being futile the two were
entirely destroyed. The barn and q
number of out-buildings were saved
with great difficulty. The almshouse
originally cost $4,000 and some time
ago an addition was put to it costing
$1,000. There were $4,000 insurance on
the burned property. The fire is sup
posed TO have occurred through the
carelessness of some of the inmates of
the insane department. The inmates
were all removed in safety and all the
contents We're saved except few iron
bedsteads. Mo VeytosCn Journal.
