A Bankers OPINIoN.-One of the
famous Seligman brothers, New York
bankers, being in Walla Walla, was in
terviswed by Journal reporter to this
effect: Mr.. Seligman stated that he had
been travelling on this coast since April
last, acquainting himself with the
country and examining particularly the
agricultural districts of California, Or
egon and Washington. He thought
the condition of Washington Territory
and the Willamette valley remarkably
prosperous--the evidence of this being
especially marked at the cities of Port
land, Tacoma and Seattle. Yesterday,
through the kindness of Mr.. Miles
Moore, he had been enabled to ses the
country between here and Dixie, which
he thought most beautiful; he had heard
such wonderful tales of the Walla
Walla region that he had regarded
most of them as fabulous, but now that
he had seen for himself, he was willing
to fall into line and apply in good faith
all the superlatives which had been
used in that connection: history, as
well as his own observation, had taught
him that cities surrounded by agri-
cultural districts were prosperous in
proportion to the fertility of the land;
there was no question that the land
hereabout was of remarkable fertility.
Therefore" said Mr.. Seiigman, your
city can be certain of this: a steady,
substantial growth of population and
wealth. You may not have boom
but, with or without more railroads,
Walla Walla, in my opinion, will con-
tinue to grow and prosper. While in
creased manufactures would be de-
sirable feature of your progress, | be-
lieve they are not essential, so great is
my confidence in your agricultural sur
roundings."

The 6rst OF the week u was learned that
Nimehiok. who has been confined Ia the

that young Rays body was found In ths

was found, on the Santiam. about eight
miles from Solo. There were seven buck
shots In different parts Of his body, aud air-
oumstancss al the time showed eonolasivsly
that he had been shot by some one. Mr
Nimchick, aa illiterate German, AT least ~
far as our language IL concerned, gave him.
self up. and was indicted by the GrAad Jury
for the murder of Ray. although he denied
having anything 10 do with H. But now. he
admits that he shot Ray. hat says they

He states that thers had always been the

This is his confession as told ua, aud will

We refer to the lake by that name
situated about mile and half from
the city west OF the Willamette, as it
was founi last Saturday, by about 8
hundred Of our citizens It was q pic
mic on ice. The lake is entirely sur
rounded by trees, and the ice was al
mostperfect for skating purposes, vetsr-
ans at the pastime declaring that ;hey
never before had seen such a maenifi-
cent field in which to display their
agility at speed or the grape vine, etc.
The stretch was three quarters CT q
mile and aboH twenty rods wide, and
young men and women spanned the
distance dozens Of times until their
limbs became weary. All realized
that it would be their last chance per-
haps for several years, so that they did
not leave fer home until nearly dark.
This was pronounced the finest skate
ever enjoyed by Albanians.
There is this about skating in Oregon.
We may not have as much ice as our
Eastern friends, for which fact we are
very thankful. but when we do have
any it "knocks the persimmons" of
your Eastern coDgealed mass Of snow
and wind and water.

Fnecs on wheat

Last Wednesday R.A. Irvine brought US
in some specimens OF wheat just pulled,
which were good Indications of the effect
the cold snap had on the wheat. BY actual
examination about half OF the sprouts were
dead while the ether half would grow and
flourish, aud this may be said to be the
way it is all over the county. It's claimed
by some that if the cold does net pull the
wheat cut Of the ground that il will grow
anyway, and others say that even then
some of the kernels may be killed, and
certainly in the specimens shown, which
remained in the earth, half were dead.
From al with whem we have talked, we
come TO The conclusion, that in almsst no
parts Is the wheat killed entirely, in other
parts, very little, while nearly every where
in the county, some. There is not
enough seed wheat in the county to SOW
il all, but there is probably enough to
meet the demands which will be made, for
there are great many fields which viii
not nesl 70 be reSewE at all.

saaa Does 1t Mean .

We have in oar hand clipping from
the New York "Real Estate Record, -
giving a list of mortgages just filed in the
Clerks Office in that city. Among the
list we find this: ''yillnrd, Henry to the
Manhatta Savings Inst" and then follows
a description of the great Wizards million
dollar Madison Avenue residence, with
the memorandum, "S years D per cent,
$40, 800" One mightjudge from the pro
fuse manner in which Henry Willard had
run things in the northwest that he vas
flush, but there is significance in his
mortgaging his pet Madison Avenue resi-
denee, which does rot speak we'll for his
real property. Many think that within
year he will go completely to pieces, but
so long as it does not affect the Northern
Pacific as transportation agent the peo
pie ofthis state care very little.
