Yours very truly,

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,
Washington, ID. c., Feb. 6, 1882 {
I'D. LAuAN, ESo--Dedr Sir: Think
told you in my last letter that | had
written the Commissioner Of the General
Land Office in relation to the exclusion Of
Lombardy poplar from the list OF timber
permisssble under tie timber culture act,
and that | enclosed letter 10 Mr.. Shell
ton and asked to have the entire cores
pondence, including petitions, forwarded
to the Secretary with request that his
decision be modified so as not to include
Washington Territory and Oregon, and L
intimated TO him that the dictum of the
Office, that because the LpElbardy poplar
only grew as bush within the neighbcr-
hood Ct the Secretary, that therefore II
could only attain the size Of bush IN
Washington Territory was rs unjust as
was the dictum Of the tropical savage who
denied the existence of ice. am now
happy to inform you that the office has
reversed Its ruling, and whatever the ex-
perience of locality may show will grow
into useful timber may be cultivated un-
der the timber act.

Europe Arming.

The chronic condition Of the great
powers of Europe seems to be one Of
preparation for war and conquest. On
all hands it is reported that Russia, Ger
many, France, Italy and Turkey are max
ing extensive military preparations for a
struggle which is believed to be immi-
nent.. Men are being enrolled, fOrtresses
strengthened, ships put in commission
and manned, and guns of improved con-
struction manufactured to carry on opera
tons that are believed to. be inevitable
Which will be the first parties to engage
in active conflict is question which can
only be decided by the result France
has deep-seatei grudge against Ger
many. Italy resen;s the interference of
Bismarck in the question of temporal
sovereignty of the Pope of Rome, and
both Russia and Turkey are dissatisfied
with the Treaty of Berlin and decidedly
opposed TO its completed fulfillment.
At the same time, France, although she
has empha,ically declared against the
temporal power of the Pope, is not at
present in Il condition TO assist Italy in
contest with Germany. There can be no
question that European affairs are at pres
sent extremely complicated, and there
is danger that a solution of existing diff
culties may shortly be attempted by force
of arms The extent of the preparations
for war now going on precludes the be-
lief that peace can longer be maintained.
II is an unfortunate attribute of despotic
countries t1at it should be considered
necessary to divert the attention of the
people from the consideration of Internal
grievances by engaging in war with some
foreign State. To this principle may Ae
attributed the last war between France
and Austria, and between the former
power and Germany which ended SO dis
astrously 10 France Ii is in the highest
degree probable that the internal dis
affection which now agitates some of the
powers of Europe, may shortly induce
the Governments of these countries to
engage in contest with foreign power

of the people from the grievances which

Important Decision on Timber
Culture.

Much feeling was caused by decision
of the late Secretary of the Interior by
his decision that the Lombardy poplar
could not be considered as timber. Con-
.idering that this is about the only tree
that will grow well in this county, the
timber culture act would be, to all intents
and purposes, null and void Petitions

Our Needs and Hsw TO Obtain
Them.

At the last meeting of the Walla Walla
Board of Trade there was a General
talk" of various matters in which this
community is interested among other
things it seemed to be the opinion that
every encouragement and inducement
should be offered to induce the Oregon
Short Line 10 extend It's read to this rity.
This is very commendable, brt We have
no intimation as to what kind of ''in-
ducement" should be,otfered.
We ali knew that the .. r. & n. Co
is now engaged in the construction of a
line from Umatilla to Baker City, at
which point it will connect with the Ore
gon Short Line, and We believe that when
the proper time arrives line will be con-
structed from this city to connect with
the Baker City branch at or near Pendle-
ton. This VIII give us direct communi-
cation with the East and is all that we can
expect or reasonably ask
The Oregon Short Line is yet a great
way off and would it not be best to try by
something more than " general talk" to
induce the powers that be to feel a
friendly interest in our town, its people
and business rather than look far away
for new men and new management to
help us A bird in the hand is worth two
in the bush.
1t is said also that discrimination is
made against US in the transportation of
fruits to the country north Of us. This
must be mistake, but even if it is true a
proper representation of the fact, coming
from those directly interested, to the rail-
road authorities would no doubt have
more effect than this general talk from
the Board Of Trade.
In regard to the promise TO connect this
town with the Baker City branch it is not
well 10 be impatient When We consider
the vast amount OF work already COM
menced and the great difficulty in supply
inc labor for the same il is easy 10 under
stand why nothing has Yet been done in
this direction. Let us patiently wait,
trusting in the promise that has been
made, and in the meantime let our :. GEN
eral talk" show that We are friendly to
the powers that are already working
among our hills aud valleys and that will
soon connect Us by steel hands with the
east, the vest, the north and the south
Id'e g.ssip abou; greasy water used for
locomotives and charges Of unfriendly
feelings toward us can do nogocd but will
certainly serve to belittle us in the eyes
of the managers OF our transportation
lines and perhaps in the end serve to ell
gender that same hostile feeling now un-
Justly charged.
Since the above was written We learn
from authority that Mr. r. Zahner, the
well-known o. K Il Co. S engineer, Is
now at The Dalles en route TO this city to
commence survey for the line from here
TO PeIAleton.

Blaine's Unprecedented Canvass.
Yours very truly,
THos. II. BRRNTS

Washington, Feb. 9th says: Things
move. Some are rushed ahead For In
stance, the Washington Post to-day comes
ont for Blaine for President. The Post IS
the central Democratic organ. Blaine is
said to have a pecuniary interest In 1t.
He has similar interest in a number OF
Democratic papers. 1t was some time ago
that the editor and the Maine statesman
concluded between themselves that neither
the Democratic nor the Republican party
had future worth considering, and that
the thing to do was to shat.er both IN pie
ces and make Blaine the candidate of the
fragments. Pursuant to this idea Blame
is at work. and the editor of the Post is
doing what he can To keep his end up
As the Posts article must have been
seen by Blaine before it was printed, 1t
amounts to formal proclamation by
Blame that he has cut loose from the Re
publicans, and is seeking nomination at
the hands of Democrats. 1t remains to
be seen what paper will step forward to
second the motion
Responses TO the Post, s movement were
arranged for with Democratic papers OF a
certain class. whereof the Cincinnati En-
