Letter From SpOkan Falls.

Spokan Falls, Wash. T., April 3, 1884.
Editor Review: AS have promised
my many friends in Brown county to
write and describe this country, send
you the following which I hope will
be given place in the columns of the
worthy REVIEW.
Spokan Falls is very nice little
city of soma 5000 inhabitants, of all
classes and nationalities. 1t has un-
limited water power facilities, the fall
being some so or go feet in distance
of or 8 miles. The river, which is a
little larger than the big Cottonwood
river near New Ulm, is bordered ON
both sides with rocks. At present
there are only two Touring mills and
two saw mills located at the falls, but
others will no doubt be put in the COM
ing season. The country in the vi
cinity of Spokan Falls is very billy
and rocky, and is heavily timbered
with pine and birch, but the former
greatly predominates.
The emigration is pouring in at a
lively rate, but most everybody is
heading toward Picklan or Cgur d.
Alene gold mines. Many are coming
back sadly disappointed. I have
talked with many who own shares in
the mines, but have found but few
who speak encouragingly. They are
paying from $50 to SIS and in some few
cases even as high as $50 per day to
miners in the Occur d 'Alene mines.
The winter was very mild here.
We had about thirty inches of snow,
bat it never gets as cold as in Mime.
sofa. Only twice during the winter
did mercury drop l80 below. Mer.
curry never got below zero after Feb.
10Th. More anon.

TO ASSESSORS,
PLEASE READ.

Your attention is hereby respect
fally called to the great Importance
attached to the careful collection of
the statistics of our State.
In the first place, it gives the State
her proper standing amongst other
States of the Union, by showing her
products, resources and wealth,
In the second place, it will tend to
increase our population and wealth by
encouraging immigration from abroad
and thus bring to our State many who
otherwise would not come here to To-
cate.
To further this end, assessors
whose duty it is made by law, should
with great care collect the statistics
of their different towns, in order that
the resources Of each county can be
accurately shown. Heretofore some
counties have, through negligence of
assessors, made a very poor showing
as compared with other counties, al.
though no poorer in soil nor in skill in
husbandry, but only because of the
carelessness of those to whom it was
Entrusted to collect the facts required.
Such counties, as has been appIecia.
bly, illustrated, have lost their share
of the population and money which
have come into the State and been
transferred to other counties that
have made a better showing. No
county can afford this. 1t not only
affects the Office of the Commissioner
of Statistics, but the Bureau of I'm.
migration are often accused of parti-
atty when the true reason is that the
assessors have not used sufficient care
in collecting the statistics, and for
that reason only the Commissioners
Reports have been detective.
Each assessor should carefully read
ssThe Instructions to Assessors and
''Fhe Laws Governing the Collection
Of Statistics which will be found
upon the back of the assessors state.

sincerely hope that the Commits
sioner's Report on Statistics for the
year 1884 will, by the assistance OF
the officers whose duty it is made by
law to assist him, by furnishing the
required information, be more &C.
curate and show our industries more
fully than has ever been done before.

dows in Cordes' hotel. Lang soon
after took a freight train east, but
was apprehended at Waseca on a tele.

made no effort to escape and he was
run in without trouble. On Monday
the twain were brought before justice
Fischer, and it is by his decree that
they are now enjoying ease and com.

A sensational rumor reaches us that
a farmer in the town of CORTLAND,
Nicollet county, mysteriously disap-
peared last fall, and all enquiries have
failed to disclose his whereabouts. His
wife, who remains on the place, at first
explained the absence of her husband
with the assertion that he was assist
ing some neighbors to do their thresh-
ing; but when the threshing had all
been done and the man still remained
absent, enquiries were met by other
evasive answers. The inability, or un-
willingness, of the woman to give any
satisfactory explanation of her hus-
bands disappearance, coupled with the
fact that an old cellar on the premises
was by her direction filled up about the
time he disappeared, has led theneigh-
bors to suspiscion:that he,has been foully
dealt with. The matter is undergoing
a legal investigation, and it is not
improbable that some startling develop
ments WILDE made.
