THE exodus from California
northward into Oregon and the
north still continues. Each train
leaving California Is crowded to its
utmost capacity, and the railroad
company is seriously consideringtht
question Of putting another train on
the route. These people are moi
only residents of California who
have disposed OF their property
there and are moving to the north,
where good and cheap lands can be
secured, but also people from the
east, who have been induced to &c
to California, only to find that the
country, in many respects, has been
greatly exaggerated to them. To
all such Oregon offers inducements
that are within the reach OF all.

Preparations are nearly completed
to begin the work of surveying "a
line, and securing the right of way
for the construction of the Siuslaw
and Eastern railway. This is the
most important enterprise that has
been started in Eugene, and should
enlist the hearty cooperation of
every citizen of the county, but more
especially those in the vicinity tra-
versed by the proposed route. The
construction of lighthouse by the
government at the entranae of the
Siuslaw harbor, and then a railway
thence to connect with the avenues
OF commerce in the interior, will
give an impetus to the business of
all kinds that will insure develop
ment of the vast resources lying to
the west. 1t will also result in the
improvement of the harbor and af-
ford new outlet for the products of
the country. "God help those who
help themselves" and this is an eff
fort to help ourselves in which we
predict there will be no lack of local
encouragement and assistance.-E

being attacked. This was all done in
few days and the next thing to be
done was to build a corral for ouf
stock. This we soon did by digging
trenches around a large piece OF
ground and placing fence rails on
end in the trench which, when the
dirt was all filled in again, made a
strong barricade for our stock, into
which we placed them every night,
which made our guard duty much
lighter, but they had to be out early
every morning to get something to
eat.
While portion Of our command
was engaged in making everything
safe, we also had out scouting par
ties in every direction to see if we
could find where the Indians had
taken their stock and families. We
knew they had gone towards the
Nez Perce country but hoped they
would not be allowed to enter that
country, which fact we soon learned
to be true, for about this time Mr..
Craig, (who had been one of our
guides all the way up until we met
the Nez Perces on the day after the
battle between the Well Springs and
Butter creek with whom he went
home to see his family, returned
with large escort of the leading
men Of the Nez Perce tribe, who gave
US assurance that they were our
friends and would not allow the
Kayuses to move into their country.
While they remained true to our
cause yet they did not entirely keep
their word, tor there were many of
those Kayuses that had married into
their tribe and it was almost an inn
possibility, to keep such as those out
Of their country. The Kayuses were
now on the border Of the Nez Perce
territory and it would only take a
push from our forces to put them
over the line, and once over, there
was no man that could tell Kayuse
from a Nez Perce Indian. Therefore
we would be likely to get into trou-
BILE with those that desired to be our
friends. While those matters were
all being talked about, we were max
ing ready to attack our foes again
who were at no great distance from
us, perhaps twenty-five or thirty
miles. When we had our arrange
ments all made, we found that we
could muster from $50 to l75 men all
told and this was the best that we
could do and leave a sufficient guard
around our stock and supplies at the
mission. We however had several
on the sick list and several wounded
persons that could not go. This was
small force to go out against so
formidable posse, yet they went all
the same.

An INTERESTING COMPLAINT,


The complaint Of railroad men to the in
terstate commerce commission is interesting.
They call the attention of the commission to
the fact that the train service of the United
States requires intelligence and skill, and
that the employees are intelligent and skilful,
and as intelligent and skilful citizens they
recommend to the notice of the commission
the accidents resulting in the manning and
death Of railroad employees by the use of im-
proper appliances. This, in the estimation
of the railroad men, being all that should be
required to forever condemn their use, they
call the attention of the commission to the
difference between the number of accidents
to passenger and freight employees, and ask
that means be taken to reduce the accident
rate to minimum of the passenger service.
The attention of the commission is also
called to the fact that the railroad men, being
intelligent citizens, are capable of judging
for themselves what insurance they wish to
take, and how much they want to pay for 1t,
1t being their idea that the so-oalled railroad
insurance schemes are but one way of max
ing them pay for that protection which the
law should give them, and they condemn
them as such. They further say:
We recommend that all rolling stock be
equipped with air and power brakes; that
SAFETY couplers equal to those now in use in
the passenger service be at onoe adopted on
freight cars; that passenger cars be heated
from the locomotive by steam and lighted by
electricity.
We recommend that experienced men be
employed in preference to inexperienced
men, experience being the best means to
manage the intricate system OF railroad man
agement.
We recommend that United States laws be
made for the government of railroads and
their employees, and that commission be es-
tablished, composed Of practical railroad
men, for the enforcement Of such laws.
We recommend that stated number Of
hours be all that employees be allowed to work
In train service.
We recommend that minors be not allowed
to have any connection with train service,
mature judgment being required for those
positions, in our estimation.
We recommend that all persons be prohib
tied frem using the railways for foot travel,
except employees.
This is comprehensive complaint, and
there In much in it that should, and probably
will, be carefully considered by the commits
sion. And 1t is high time that the commits
sion, If 1t has the power, should interfere to
stop the wounding and killing of brakemen
which goes on so horribly.
