The Cushing's Island Condemnation Pro-
ceedings.
In the United States District court,
before Judge Webb, yesterday, prepara-
tions were made for the Cushing's island
condemnation case. This is the case
where the federal government wishes to
aoQ uire certain amount of land on
Cushing's island for the erection OF coast
defsnse batteries. Being unable to agree
with Mr.. Francis Cushing of this city,
and Mr.. John K. Robinson of Chicago
the owners, as to the price to be PAID,
these proceedings have been brought by
District Attorney Dyer, acting under in
structions from Washington, to have the
land condemned by the court.
These condemnation PROCEEDINGS are
made before a jury, which will consist
of.twelve, who will besdrawnsfrom panel
composed of eight ofsthe old jury drawn
at the first of this term and the follow
ing specials added yesterday: Edward
C. Stevens and Stephen M. Watson of
Deering, Elbridge M. Wilson of Gorham,
Henry G. Small of Portland and William
Taylor and Mortimer o. Sullivan of West
brook.
Today the jury of twelve who are to be
selected, will be taken to Cushing's
island on steamer and will spend con-
siderable time viewing the land. Judge
Webb, in notifying them that this would
be their duty today warned them that
the task would be cold and disag7eeable
and that they ought to come prepared
for it.
Messrs. Strout, Sc age ana Strout are
counsel for Mr.. Gushing. Mr.. Gushing
thinks the land should be worth about
$1,000 an acre, considering that it is in
one of the most beautiful resorts in
America. The government wants the
land for much less In all the govern
ment wants about thirty three acres,
located on the ocean side of the Ottawa
house, and running to the waters edge

Defends Adrenfist Doctrines.

A Snohomish lady who has received the gift
Of prophecy through conversion by the Sew
enth day Advent apostles in the Maple stree
tent, is able to predict that the world will come
to an end on the 9Th day of September next.
EDITOR Il. P.-The above item
we clipped from the f. P. Of Aug.
25, and were it not for the errone-
Gus idea contained in it we would
never have given it second
thought; but for the benefit of those
who do not know the difference we
will say the Seventh Day Advent
lists are not time-setters and no one
in good standing in that church
would presume to set a day for the
world to come to an end.
/ have been a member of this
church about II years and know
whereof ] affirm. We suppose every
one has right to his own convic-
tons, but no one has right to
bear false witness against his neigh
Dor, Ex. 20:16. No doubt this was
intended as a burlesque, and were
it not for the false position in which
we are held by many good people,
we would not attempt this defense
of our principles. We think none
the less of any one for differing
with us, believing that every one
has the right to stand at the bar of
his own conscience, and as long as
he deals righteously with his fell
low man that is all his fellow man
has a right to require of him, no
difference what his religion is, or
whether he has any; we think that
is something to be settled between
man and his maker. We read in
Matt. 24:3G, . But of that day and
hour knoweth no man." and we ac-
cept this as we do all scripture,
that all scripture is given by inspi-
ration Of God: 2 Tim. 3:16. But we
are told to watch, Mark 1897; and
way marks are placed down to the
end Of time by sure word Of pro-
phecy, Peter 1:19, so we may
know something nearly in the
worlds history where we are, and
if we are children of the light and
of the day, l Thcs. 5:5, the light
will not come upon us unawares,
Luke 21:34.
The f. p. comes to us every
week, and has for number OF
years, through the courtesy of my
brother, II. c. Divine, and we are
very much pleased with it, as we
get a great deal of valuable infor
nation about the west, and Idaho
in particular, that we could MOI
get from any other source.

EDITOR PARKER:-Will you give
me space in your excellent paper
to give a short sketch of n trip
from Boise by way of Payctte lakes,
Warm Springs and Florence to Ca
mas Prairie. Our party consisted
of myself, Mr.. Jas. shannon, wife
and daughter, with our household
goods ON a wagon drawn by four
good horses accustomed to rough
mountain roads in Wyoming; yet
it took us four full weeks to make
the trip. We left Boise Sept. % and
reached this place Oct. %. All went
well until we reached Payette lake,
but at that point the storm came
down upon us and never let up un-
til we reached this growing city.
From Payctte lake until we
reached Salmon river, though him
dered by the falling snow so that
we could make but short drives, we
found the road in good repair, with
the exception of The last two miles
on the south side of the river.
From the river to the first sum-
nit the grade is SO narrow, and the
curves so sharp. with such danger
Gus places on the lower side, that
to call il a wagon road is a misno-
mer; it is fit only for a pack trail.
From the summit on this side we
could have made the trip in two
days had it not been for the storm;
but so much timber had been bro
ken down that had to be cut out
that itrequired five days to come
through. We do not blame the SUI
pervisor for that hardship; it was
our misfortune to be snow bound.
But our journey is over, and Mr..
Shannon, who has had long ex-
perience in his western life, says
Camas Prairie is the most beautiful
country he has found between Wy
oming and the Cascade mountains;
a beautiful rolling prairie, of rich
soil, producing for the farmer an
abundance Of the substantials of
life; a mining population near
enough to make a good market:
abundance Of good timber within
easy reach; mild winter, and yet
an altitude that protects you from
the oppressive heat and disagree
able dust of the valleys farther
west; and last, but by no means
least, kind nature has blessed you
with an abundant rainfall, thus
no irrigation is required.
A concluding word for the kind
friends who gave rs special favors.
Mr.. Burg(lorf, the genial German
proprietor of the Warm Springs,
played the part of the Good Sama-
ritan and gave us Il helping hand.
Mr.. Gordon, at the Bridge, and Mr..
and Miss Clark, at Florence, were
specially kind. A. l.. S. BATEMAN.
