The patter of the rain upon the roof
last night was welcome sound to all,
and our streets today show the effects of
the little shower, being free from the
dust which has so annoyed us during the
past months. The fell was Is of an inch
on high temperature. This morning
when the sun came out, everyone felt
like they too wanted to be out enjoying
the clear atmosphere.
Reports cay that the shower extended
out beyond Dufur and Mr.. Gates, who
returned from Antelope Tuesday, in
forms US they were having some rain at
that place. It is to be hoped the storm
is general and that it will come more
abundantly, as the country is sadly in
need of moisture. Beside, the roads are
said to be SO dusty that it is difficult to
see the team one is driving, and one
teamster in coming into the city drove
directly into the team IN front of him,
being unable to see through the clouds
| of dust.

screaming farce that shone brightest.
"Yet the public demand these things.

supply this demand, since 1T is not a

SETTLERS ARE SCARED.
Families Removing to Canyon City
From the lee Region.


A Canyon City telephone message to
the Baker City Democrat says that wo-
men and children are being brought to
that town for safety from the lee sec
ton, about twenty miles distant, where
the recent trouble occurred, resulting in
the death of two or three white men and
several Indians.
So far, the Canyon City informant
says, six wagon-loads of settlers have
come here for refuge. The fugitive set
tiers report that the Indians are gather
ing in force in the vicinity OF lee, and
that the signal fires of tie redskins can
be seen every night on the mountains
surrounding the settlements.
From the current reports it is rumored
that sheepherder was killed by the In
dians last evening, at a point not far
! from lee.
The most Trustworthy Information
leads to the belief here that there will
be no general uprising of the redskins,
and that all there is remaining of the
difficulty, terminating with the desper-
ate and bloody battle on Desr creek, is
a big and general ''scare" among the
people living in the thinly settled sec.
tlons. Some of the men seem to be
more badly frightened that are the wo.
