SENATOR LAMAR.

We are glad to see that this dis
statesman has disclalm-
ed any desire TO have an expression
from Gen. Lowry as to his prefer
ence for Senator. The Senator thus
places himself rignt before the peo-
pie of Mississippi and very justly
rebukes the otficiousness of some
OF his too jealous and indiscreet
supporters. In so doing Senator
Lamar has strengthened himself
and placed the Democrats of this
State under renewed obligations,
If that were possible, to again re.
ward him with the high position
he has filled with such ability and
honor.
We quote as fellows from the
Senator'S speech, delivered at De.
Kalb, Kemper county, on the 9th
inst. At this point he was asked
by Captain Braine if in his opinion
Gen. Lowry was a party to any
combination which had for its OBJ.
jects opposition to his return to the
Senate. 10 this the speaker replied:
III have not the slightest idea
that Gen. Lowry is party to any
combination OF the kind. assuming
that such combination exists. ZAP
plause. | have no intimation,
either directly or indirectly, from
that gentleman on this matter, nor
have | any source OF information
in relation to it not open to the
public. But from my knowledge
Of Gen. Lowry's character, from
what believe to be his personal
feeling to me, and from the fact
that he took the earliest occasion
to disconnect himself from the at
tacks that had been made upon me,
am quite sure that he does not
wish any antagonism OF the kind to
which Captain Braine refers. He
may have his preferences, as
all Others have, and as it is an un-
questionable right to have. IT in
the exercise of his right of private
| judgment he should think that an.
other worthler than myself should
represent Mississippiin the Senate,
shall have no right to complain.
| do not know whether Lowry IS
for Lamar for the Senate or not,
butt do know, and wish it under
stood once for all, that Lamar is for
Gen. Lowry for Governor, The truth
is Gen. Lowry cannot, IN his pres
ent position of trust and RESPONSE
bllity, wish to antagOnize anybody.
He is like the Indian chief who,
captured by a company of white
men and compelled to carry the
cooking utensils of his captors,
worried at length of his burden,
threw it down saying: "White
man, look here; let every fellow
carry his own skillet"
Amid uproarous laughter the
Colonel added:
"General Lowry has got his own
skillet to tote just n3w@.and have
no wish to burden him with mine,
IEApplause.I For the present, the
question of paramount moment is
whether the election Of the able
and honorable gentleman nomina'
ted by the Democratic Convention
shall continue to us un brokenly the
blessings OF good government
here at home. > Pamela Star.

The Coast Indians.

The Indians living on GrayS
harbor and Shoalwater bay have
been transferred to Quinalt. Those
living OH Grays harbor are scat
tered in small bands at some dis
tance from each other, and get
their living mostly by hunting and
fishing. Some of those living on
the Hoquoiam and Chehalis rivers,
near farming settlements, are fire.
quently employed in various ca
pacities, and are considered quite
useful laborers. Having no land
of their own they do not raise any
vegetables or grain. Those living
on the Humptulips river and the
north beach Of the harbor are rails
ing some vegetables, and have a
few head of cattle; four of them
have taken homesteads and made
some improvement on them. The
Shoalwater bay Indians live in a
better locality, and find plenty OF
work during the oyster season and
in fishing on the Columbia. Being
almost continually employed by the
whites, they are more enterprising
and further advanced in ciyiliza-
tion than any of the tribes of the
agency. They have expressed a
desire for a day school, and
offered to furnish all material
necessary for suitable buildings
for that purpose if the government
would pay the expense and fur
nish teacher. These Indians
never had an opportunity to edu-
cate their children, and having
improved other opportunities for
civilization to a greater extent
than any other Indians on the
coast, is no more than an act OF
Justice that educational privileges
should be extended to them. The
improvement of the Quinalts
Queets and Hobs, both education
al and industrial, has been greater
than any other year. The average
attendance in the school has beer
thirty-two pupils during the clever
months in which school has beer
held. This will compare favor
ably with any school, either white
or Indian, with a register o.
thirty-four scholars. The progress
has been favorable-quite as mucl
as could be expected, all things
considered.

Coming.

Now that the first FIVE miles Of
the Oregon and Nevada narrow
gauge railway is completed, and
five miles more under construction,
there is no longer any doubt that
the railroad will be built. The
first five miles offered greater OBJ
stacles to the building of the road
as projected, than any other part
of the line. 1t is fair TO presume
that the chief obstruction has been
removed. The company will now
be able 10 bond that part OF the
road for $4,000 per mile, which
will give them ample capital to
build the next FIVE miles. When
this is done a similar bond can be
executed for each FIVE miles com
pleted. The company have con
tended with serious obstacles, but
with perseverance have succeeded
Where they expected friendship
they have found violent oPPo-
sition and misrepresentation. Ii
is no small undertaking TO build q
railroad, even under favorable cir,
cumstances: but when every oh,
stacle is thrown ia the way it i:
one of tenfold magnitude. A
great many persons who otherwise
would have been friendly, have
been misled by Misrepresentation:
but Notwithstanding the obstacles
the road is being rapidly built, and
the company is paying foi tho
work.

Miss O,Rrien seems 70 have nu

Miss O'Bricn seems TO have put
her foot in it rather badly, respect
ing her sensational stories of hor-
rors in the steerage. She first
wrote to the Pail Mall Gazette a
terrible account of what happened
on a certain steamer sailing be-
tween Liverpool and New York,
but did not name the steamer.
When cornered by the president
of the board of trade, she said it
was the Germanic, of the White
Star line: one of the finest steam
ers afoat. The government in
spectors said that the arrange
ments for the comfort and welfare
of emigrants on the Germanic
were all that could be required
Then Miss O'Brien said she did
not mean the Germanic, but that
she was quite certain some other
ships were as bad as she had rep
resented the Germanic was. After
all which Miss O'Brien had better
put her foot in mouth and keep it
there.

The fate of Nebuchadnezzar
has befsllen AN insane Italian
named Virgilis Strozzi, near
Eureka, Nevada. He escaped
from the hospital, took TO the hills,
and since then has refused all offers
OF food, and has lived on grass and
roots. Those who have watched
his movements declare that his
mouth is colored green from grass
stains and that he seems to he
waxing fat OH his curious diet.
His case is worthy of investiga-
ton by medical experts, and if it
can be proved that a man may
safely be turned out TO grass there

broken-down politicians whom il
would be a mercy for their party
TO supply with a commodious

A. NJ. Gibson, Washington
correspondent of the New York
Sun, wrote to that paper almost
daily attacks on Garfield during
the Presidential campaign. On
August 25th, 1880, his letter con-
tanned this: flames A. Garfield
occupies position before the pub
lie similar to that of a convicted
thief on trial for a second offence"
All his letters were soiled by
similar slanderOus and indecent
charges. 1t is now noted with re-
gret that the President has sane
toned the appointment of Gibson
as one cf the agents to prepare
evidence in the Star route investi-

Commenting upon the view Of
THE AsToRIAN that "Une great
need on the Pacific northwest is
an increase of desirable immi-
grafton. Land spectators stand
in the way of the immigration,
although there is much fertile
territory on which their tenaci-
Gus grasp has not been closed"
the Weston Leader says:
With regard TO that, any intend
ing settlers NAV be assured that
In different parts of Umatilla
county can be found large tracts
of arabic and highly fertile land
simply awaiting the arrival of the
immigrant. From the summit
ridge of the Blue mountains lying
east TO the thriving city of Weston,
extending west and southwest
therefrom, is one continuous roll
ing plain which is capable of rais-
ing at least as much wheat to the
acre, as any land known. Wide
awake settlers can come in to-day,
and find many valuable claims on
the Blue mountains; valuable not
only for their timber but for the
rich soil which yields so bounti-
fully. Then away to the west As
far as the Columbia river thou
sands of acres are lying idle, ready
for the plow of the ranchman.
Parties locating near the Columbia
can save largely each year by their
proximity to the railroad striking
its banks, and they also are always
sure of aplenteous supply of drift
wood from its waters. And
famous among such is the Cold
spring section, where w. w.
Caviness is able to furnish need
ed information to the intending
settler.

Corr. Coos Bay News.
Your contributor of the Sth
inst, is correct, with regard to
the building Of the schooner Gen.
Lane by Mcclellan in 1859, but
not correct in supposing that she
was the first vessel built in Ore
gon. A schooner was built, as
near as can remember, in 1S45,
called the Star of Oregon; she
was taken to San Francisco and
sold. In 1850, ships long-boat
was sawed in two, heightened and
was transformed into a steamer
for the purpose of navigating the
Clackamas rapids below Oregon
city; her name was the Hoosier.
No doubt, she was the first steam
vessel on the Willamet.
