MIR. Kayden's Letter on His Recent
Trip East.
VANCOUVER, Jan. 23d, 1884.

VANCOUVER, Jan. ODD, 1884.
EDITOR INDEPENDENT:
Dear Sir: Having been one of the
Washington Territory pioneers who
went east on the 2nd of Oct. last, and
returned on the 2nd day of January, 1
would like to tell my friends east the
difference in the climate between Chi
cago, Milwaukee and Minneapolis, and
here. When our train pulled out of
Chicago, on the ODD day of December,
the thermometer stood 8 degrees below
zero, at Milwaukee and Madison, Wis
consin, 2 below, and at Minneapolis
Dakota to 20 degrees below zero, and
continued cold, with some snow, until
we passed the Mullan tunnel, on the
top of the Rockies; then as we came
down the mountains the weather
moderated, being down to 40 degrees
above zero at Umatilla. went up to
Pendleton, and on the Goth of Decem-
Der the mercury ran down to 10 de-
grees below zero; came down to the
Dalles and found on New Years day
no snow there and mercury % degrees
above zero. Arrived at Portland, Or,
and found the weather like spring
the grass green and some flowers i'm
bloom-and last night was the coolest
of the season, mercury % above zero.
Letters from Southern Wisconsin one
below zero, while here in Washington
Territory on the same date it was like
spring. Now, my friends, both east
and here, can Judge which of the two
countries they prefer-eastern, two
degrees further south, or Washington
Territory, where the ladies have the
right of the ballot, and where flowers
bloom in open air almost every month
in the year. "This is probably the re-
suit of one of the last acts of the WASH
ington Territory Legislature at its last
sitting.n
The Clarke County Agricultural &
Mechanical Society elected me their
representative to display some of the
products of this county in the east,

No white man is more widely known
among the Indians than Col. Dodge, who is
always spoken OF by them as the big
Chief" HIS new work, Our Wild Indians, !"
on the title page OF which Gen. Sherman's
name also appears was undertaken by him
at the urgent solicitation OF many distin.
guished men. 1t was not however, until
Gen. Sherman offered to write an introduc.
tlou to the work, and to give the volume
ms oihclal sanction, that Col. Dodge con.
sented to undertake it. 1t is the first au-
thentlc account OF our wild Indians that
has been written for nearly forty years.
The author writes from the stand point OF
actual personal experience, and 1t is inter.
estiDg to note IN this connection the excep-
uonal opportunities OF observation he has
enjoyed. as will be seen from the following
statement OF facts:-Col. Dodge was grad
mated from West Point in lS4s, and was at
once assigned to active duty on the Texas
frontier among the crafty and cunning
Comanches. From that time until his last
campaign against the Ctes, In 1850, a period
OF t,rfy-tiree years. bis lite has been spent
IN direct personal contact with some OF the
widest Indians OF the Far West" In
THIS third OF a century he has had inter-
course with thlrty-four different tribes, hav-
my fought his way foot by foot through
Indian lands over ground never before
trodden by the foot of a white man. His
position as high commanding officer in the
I. ) army and leader OF many important
expeditions against the Indians. has given
hun opportunities for study and observation,
such as have never before fallen to the lot OF
white man, and such as no one IN civil life
could possibly command.
In tins volume OF $50 pages Col Dodge
aims To give truthful and minute account
OF Our Wild Indians OF the present day;
to yiv1dly describe their actions, habits,
customs, religion. manners, and amusements
AS prscticed by them aoic ia the uucivilized
regions OF their uninvaded country; to give
grape accounts Of thrilling aud exciting
adventures among them; to narrate daring
exploits and hair breadth escapes. not only
from his own experience, but from that OF
other white men, aud OF Indians also, and

defences, and heroic achievements incident
to frontier life. In all of this Col. Dodge has
succeeded most admirably, and he has pro
duced incomparably the most exhaustive
! and truthful account of "Our Wild Indians
ever written, and undeniably one of the
most thrilling and fascinating books OF
personal daring and romantic adventure ever
published. His narrative is spiced with
many grapic accounts Of famous Scouts and
Guides; of Trappers, Frontiersmen, Squat
tiers, Squaw- Men. Texas Cow Boys, Miners,
Gold Hunters, Border Ruifians and Des'
peradoes, and their adventures and wonder
full achievements are fascinating pen pictures
of life in our Indian country. Truth is
stranger than fiction" and most essentially
so in this thrilling record of Thirty Three
Years Experience.
Gen. Sherman truthfully says in his intro
duction:-"You is the first attempt Of
which have knowledge to treat him 1.-THE
lndian) as he exists in fact. You have had
the experience of third of century in alb
solute contact with the various tribes OF
our Indians from the British line to Texas,
New Mexico, and Arizona, hunting with
them in peace and in war. 1t is by tar the
best description extant of the habits, man
ners, customs. usages, ceremonies, etc., oil
the American Indian as he now is. loo
are hereby authorized to use my name as
authority for its publication and circulation,
and l incite all persons to read this book
carJuliy"
The book is both profusely and magniti.
Gently illustrated. Its list of steel-pates
includes portraits of the author and OF Gen.
Crook, Gen. Miles, Gen. Caster, Gen. Nc
kenze, ETC.. and there are many superb
full-page engravings on wood. But the
| GROWING feature of the illustrations are the
magnificent full,page Chrome Lithograph
Plates. These are printed in fifteen colors,
from ninety engraved stones, and represent
weapons, ornaments, instruments, fac SMILES
of Indian drawings, and remarkable objects
of interest and curiosity too numerous to
mention. The Smithsonian Institute at
Washington is largely indebted to Col.
Dodge for its extensive collection of Indian
| objects, collected by him in the past thirty
three years.
After careful and critical exampati Of
Col. Dodge's great work, We can truthfully
say that it combines in an unusual degree
great value and the most thrilling interest;
uniting both with magnificent Illustrations.
1t is rare tr, at to look at the latter. In
every respect it is thoroughly tirst-class
work, aud as such we call the special
attention of our readers to it, and We advise
them to get it the very first opportunity.
Once begun it will not willingly be laid aside
till the last page is finished 1t is sold at
low price, but is for sale only by subscrip-
ton through canvassing agents, one OF whom
is now in Vancouver.
