OREGON ALL RIGHT.-Last win
ter the Oregonian was laboring for
the repeal of the mortgage tax and
usury laws, it could not deplore
sufficiently the mossbackism of
Oregon that was driving money out
of this state and building up the
cities of Washington where more
liberal laws allowed money to be in
vested more freely, etc, to the great
advantage of the citizens of Wash
ington and loss of Oregon. 1t now
appears that these statements were
all mythical. Washington as the
paradise of the moneylender has
nearly as many exploded booms as
there are cities in that state. Times
are reported very very dull in many
places and all business men say that
collections are slower there than in
Oregon. A recent commercial re-
cent report shows that there have
been fewer failures In Salem than in
any city of its size on the coast.

ence with Secretary Proctor. in company with
Capt r II. Pratt, superintendent Of the Car
Isle Indian school, in regard to the condition
of the Sioux Indiana He said to q STAR
reporter that everything is now quiet in
Dakota and the chances are favorable that there
will be no trouble this spring. The white
folks around the agencies, he added, are in
clined to start all sorts Of rumors of the coming
strife, but as far as he could observe, and he
had investigated the circumstances very
thoroughly, he knew of no organized intent on
the part Of the Indians to be hostile or any in
clination to organize Speaking Of the Brules
who gained q rather unsayory reputation last
winter, he continued to say that there is a good
deal of injustice done this tribe,
which furnished the first full company of SOL
diers to the government, without conditions
Capt Lee is Of the opinion that the project Of
ealisting Indians will ultimately be as much of
a success as the enlistment Of colored men has
been
Commissioner Morgan called at the War De-
partment at noon and had a talk with Capt Lee.

LIEUT.. CAsEY's DEATH.
Trial Of Plenty Horses for Murder-Plea of
the Defense.

The trial Of Plenty Horses for shooting Lieut..
Casey during the recent Indian disturbances
has now been going on three days at Sioux
Falls, SD. The court has been convened by
Judges Edgerton and Shiras, the jury chosen,
the case for the prosecution presented by
United States District Attorney Sterling and
four witnesses examined.
The jurors are, for the most part, farmers.
and are all intelligent men. The prosecution
in the opening address to the jury characterized
the killing of Lieut., Casey as "a brutal and
cold-blooded murder" The prosecutor at nc
time brought the subject Of the late war into
his presentation of the case. and has earnestly
objected to questions being put by the defense
which in any way relate to the Indian uprising
The defense. on the contrary, has from the
start shown that its policy will be to prove tina,
Plenty Horses, knowing Of the hostile condi
ton OF affairs existing, shot Lieut.. Casey in the
belief that in war times to kill was not only Q
proper but q necessary action.
