Some of the good people of this town
have been expecting to see some refer
ence in the REGISTER to an event which
took place here some two weeks since,
thinking your regular correspondent
would notice it. On the evening of the
2lst ult. some one hundred or more of
the neighbOrs and friends of Mr.. and
Mrs Wilbur l.. Hamilton assembled. by
invitation, at their comfortable and com
modious dwelling, to commemorate the
10Th anniversary of their marriage
Among them were the aged. the middle
aged, the youth and the children of at
least three generations. The host and
hostess had spared no effort or expense
to entertain their guests in sumptuOus
manner. And their efforts in this were
crowned with success. AS the guests
came in and paid their addresses to Mr..
and Mrs. Hamilton. they were cordially
welcomed ard made at ease and at home.
All went Joyous and happy; and the
evening passed rapidly away. The pres
ents were numerous and many OF them
valuable. All of them were as tokens of
esteem and affection. The refreshments
were sumptuous and were served with
remarkable order and quietness in so
large gathering. At an early hour all
departed. leaving behind them many
heartfelt thanks for the occasion, and
many good wishes for the future pros
pcrity of Mr.. and Mrs. Hamilton and
their family. In the opinion of the writ
er of this notice of the event. one q, the
greatest blessings of such gatherings is
to be sought for in the social feelings
which they awaken and perpetuate ia the
community in which they occur. w.

Up to Wednesday Of this week,
when the advent of rain spoiled out
door exercise for everything but
ducks and OregOnians, the city pre-
sented an appearance Of life in eX-
cess Of anything seen here since the
town first sprOuted. The weather
had put on touch Of respectability,
and the blue birds carrOlled hymns
Of Thanksgiving in honor of the signs
of spring. Men flOcked upon the
various thOrOughfares, and there was
a hum and din in the air betOkening
a general awakening from the sleep
Of winter. The sidewalks were
thronged. The business man rush.
ed backward and forward, bent upon
turning an honest penny, while the
sight seeker and prOspectOr lOunged
about, or collected in groups and
talked mines and real estate. We
hicles passed and repassed, stores
were crowded and u general feeling
Of satisfaction was depicted upon
every face. At various points about
the city large gangs Of labOrers and
mechanics were hard at work aiding
in increasing the taxable property OF
the place, ana crOwding Spokane to
that place Of prominence in the Ter
ritOry that it is bound to reach sooner
or later. At several points large
forces Of men and teams were exca-
waiting for brick buildings, and in
score Of other places carpenters were
whIcking together frame structures.
Never before has the city been under
the halo of 80 great II promise of
prosperity, and every indication
points to a continuation OF the same
that commenced 50 early and under
such favorable circumstances. We
speak Of it because the appearance
Of the town created general comment,
and Of course a CORES IOnding degree
Of satisfaction. Let the good work
60 bravely on until the SHOWS of
another winter finds Spokane Falls
spread out in every direction and
double its present siZe.N

Last Sunday Judge Advocate
Capt. Frank b. Baldwin, U. s. A.,
from Vancouver passed through
this city en- route for Washington
City. He met Maj. Armstrong and
Col. Morgan here by appointment,
and from the latter gentleman we
learn his mission. 1t will be remem-
bered that last summer Capt. Bald
win, accompanied by Chief Moses
and several other prominent abOr-
ignees, the length Of their names
excluding mention on account OF
Limitation Of space, stopped over at
the Falls on their way to Washing
ton where a grand pOwwOw was held
before Secretary Teller, and when
satisfactory arrangements were ne
gotiated for removing the Moses In
dians from the OkonOgan reserva-
tiOn and throwing that rich mineral
section open to prOspectors. Unfor-
tunately the appropriation for that
department Of the government was
short and the provisions Of the trea-
ty were never carried into effect.
The Indians are now anxious to have
the scheme prOffered them and car
ried out, and through their earnest
solicitations Capt. Baldwin has been
induced to make the trip east where
he WfA-exert his influence to have
the present Congress make the ne
cessary appropriation for carrying
out the proposition acquiesced in by
the INDIANS. As the Captain Is
man capable of pleading his cause
forceably and eloquently it is believ-.
ed that his mission will meet with
success. He feels a deep interest in
the matter rs he isdesirOus of throw
ing open the lands now occupied by
Chief Moses, believing them to be
exceedingly valuable in minerals.
Our people will look forward to the
result Of his labOrs with considerable
interest, for the opening up Of the
country north of us means an in
creased business for Spokane + lis
as all the trade Of that vast section
will naturally drift to this point.

many weeks expire. The crowd is
composed of Major. ]. NJ. Armstrong,
the Register OF the United States
Land Office Of this place, a genial
gentleman whose career in the SER
vice Of Uncle Sam has been an hon.
Orable and creditable one, and who
has more friends than you can shake
a stick at; DIR. l.. II. WhitehOuse,
who has represented this district
with credit to himself and his con-
stituency in the Territorial Legisla-
ture, and out Of his Office a devilish
pleasant individual; Col. l.. b.
Nash, one Of our very best lawyers
and a gentleman of infinite wit and
wisdom; and last but not least Col.
e.. II. Morgan, one Of our leading
merchants, a "hale fellow well metz
and an old timer who dates his ad-
vent before nature produced the
falls. Here is represented brains
and means, without which success
can never follow any undertaking.
They are men Of cool judgment, ca
pable Of forming just and unbiased
opinion of the country they are about
to traverse, and will not be taken in
by any superficial or surface show.
They propose to go over the entire
ground that so much has been said
and written Of in years past, and we
look forward with a great deal of in
terest to the decision they may ar
rive at. While we have great con-
tidence in the section they are about
to visit we have never had an OppOr-
tunity to inspect 1t ourselves, and
favorable report from this party will
have great weight with us. The
season Is not the most favorable that
could be chosen for trip Of the kind.
The thaw will have the effect of
sOftenIng the roads and swelling the
streams, thus making an overland
journey anything but an extremely
pleasant pastime. However ii Is the
only time the gentlemen can leave
their several business interests, and
the best they can do is to make the
effort, and as they are constituted
with the necessary and required
sand no ordinary impediment will
be recognized as hinderance. We
wish them a smooth and unevent-
full trip, and may the ultimate re-
suits bear rich fruit, fully repaying
them for the venture.

When there is a call for charity
few men In the community responds
with more prOdigal liberality and
alacrlty than Geo. 4. Crane, our
prosperous hardware dealer, and he
does it without OstentatiOn or quib-
BILE. Another proof Of his charitable
weakness was given this week. A
few days ago the house and entire con-
tents owned bya settler named John
Smith living some fourteen miles
west Of the city was destroyed by
fire. The unfortunate farmer and
his family was thrown out Of a home
without cent in the world. The
circumstances were reported to ID.
Nj. 'Drumheller, who at once kindly
interested himself in the case and
proceeded 70 take up a collection for
the sufferer among our business men.
All contributed freely but when he
reached Mr.. Crane that gentleman
presented the family with new
cooking stove and complete outfit
costing S45. With this gift and the
money subscribed the Smith family
find themselves nicely fitted out
again.

We are informed that real estate
in this city took another heavy ad-
vance this week, and that the de-
mand remains active at the increas-
ed figures. OF course when men buy
lots for speculation prices are bound
to keep moving ahead as the last
purchases adds O certain per cent.
to the valuation for the purpose Of
realizing from the investment. Yet
it cannot he denied that exorbitant
prices do more injury than good to
any city, for men cannot pay fancy
figures for lots with any prospect OF
building tOan advantage. It Is one
Of the inalienable rights of man to
ask anything he pleases for his own
property, and we have no objections
to seeing buyers make money out Of
their speculatiOns, but parties with
moderate means are driven away
when real estate becomes unreas-
onably high. We do not expect to
hear Of property depreciating on the
strength Of this mild expOstulation,
nor do we desire to see q sudden
collapse in prices. While the city is
growing as 1t is, real estate is bound
to sell on a rising market, but we
have no admiration for such extrav-
agant additions made TO prices as
were reported this week.
