this season. AS to melons, no country
can beat this. in size or quality, and can
say the same for potatoes.
Climate, dry and healthy, in every re-
spect. Poor place for doctors. If a per-
son dies here it is generally by accident
at least that has been the way in our
neighborhood SO far.
Now with all this newcomer need
not think he can come here and make an
easy living, especially a man with small
means, for it takes rushing for that class
to make it, for the simple reason that
there is 10 market yet handy; but the
time will come, and that before long,
when we will have a railroad to tap the
Big Bend. 1t is talked of now pretty
strong, and may be built next summer.
And the Columbia River will be opened
before many years. There is enough wa
ter in it to float the Great Eastern, espe-
cially during the summer months. The
only difficulty now in the way of steam
boats coming up this far, is the few rap
ids. that need some rock blown out of
them.
Now few words about Fort Spokeane.
This place is situated at the mouth of the
Spokeane River, on bend, or fiat, about
500 feet above the River. 1t has six Com
panies, five of Infantry and one of Caval-
ry They have fine quarters of officers
and men, two-story frame houses, well
painted. supplied with good spring water,
one spring coming out onthe hillside some
200 feet above camp, furnishes all the wa
ter they want, with hydrants to every
house in camp. There are good many
Indians scattered on the Reservation
North of Columbia River, but not one In
dian for every ten miles square. The
leaders of the Nez Perces Indians were
brought here from the Indian Territory
last April year ago, known as the Jo-
seph's Band. They number about $50 all
told. They draw Government rations
yet. They and the soldiers consume II,
600 pounds per month of fresh beef, which
I have had the honor to issue to them for
the last sixteen months.

Rheumatism

Usually settles in the back or limbs, and
often so completely overpowers its vic
TINS that all business and labor have to
be abandoned. Our readers should re-
member that Hoods Sarsaparilla is not
recommended as a positive specific for
rheumatism; its proprietors doubt if
there is, or can be, such remedy. But
many people who are severely afflicted,
state that they have been positively cured
by Hoods Sarsaprilla. The disease is
often the result of impure blood-hence
the power of this great medicine over it,
Its success in many severe cases justifies
us in recommending its use to all suffer-
