MAJOR M0ORH0USE AND ]. {. SMITH
CORRECT STORY Of EGAN'S DEATH

According to Major Lee Moorhouse,
J. E. Smith and other olG time resi-
rents of this city. the writer in last
Sundays Portland Oregonian who
discussed the capture and killing Of
Chief E-gan of the warning BAN
nocks and Piutes. is writing about
something OF which he is very poorly
informed The local men were great
~ amused at the statement that the
writer was close enough al the time
of the killing to hear the "a shots,
which were fired at that time. They
declare that if this statement is true,
the writer is an Indian, for there was
no white man in IL. miles of the spot
at that time. Even the soldiers un-
der command of Captain Miles, fear
ed the treachery of Old Umapine and
refused to venture from the agency.
The Oregonian contributor also re-
ferred to Ho-mil-la and Ya-t'n-a-ya-
wits as one and the same Indian,
whereas in reality, they were two diff
ferent Indians. the former being
nearly 40 years older than the lat
ter. Ho-mil-la was chief of the Wal
la Walla tribe of Indians, while Va
tin-a-ya-wits was a Cayuse and the
son-in-law Of Howlish Wampoo, head
chief of the Cayuses at that time.
Both were considered good and brave
Indians by the whites and both took
part in the capture and killing of
E-gan.
As TO the manner Of the killing of
the Bannock chief, the local resi-
dents also differ with the cores
pondent of the Portland paper He
said it was the present chief of the
Caypses who had proved treacherous
to the whites and later turned trait
or and betrayed E-gan to his death
in a final effort to re-establish his
standing with the white men. The
fact is that the treacherous Umapine
was the father or uncle of the pres
ent head man Of the Cayuses.
J. E. Smith, head OF the j. E
Smith Livestock company, is partic.
ularly we'll qualified to speak in re.
gard to the killing Of the BannocE
chief for he was at the agency at the
time the head was brought in on
pole by Ya-tip-a-yA-wits, .r-

fight ensued with the hostile Indians
who had followed their leader.
These were reinforced from the camp
as soon as the sound of battle reach
ed there. E-gan was a very trou-
blesome prisoner, and in a struggle
to escape, was shot by Five Crows and
killed.

tie in progress soon reached the res

aid their friends who were slowly re-

Canned GOODS

DR.. H. w Wiley, chief of the bureau

has written letter to Walter A.
Frost of a Chicago brokerage firm In
which he gives clean bill of health
to canned goods. Dr.. Wiley's letter
which has been received by Ottumwa
wholesalers, is as follows:
Washington, d. c., May /, 1903.
Mr.. Walter A. Frost,
Wabash Ave, Chicago, H.,
Dear Mr.. Frost: | have often re-
GREETED the ,inadvertent injury which
is done to the canned goods trade by
enthusiastic, well-intentioned, and yet
not fully informed writer's, implying
that canned goods, as such, are adult
| terated. l think l can safely say that,
| taking the whole matter of canned
goods together, including fish. canned
meats, canned vegetables, and canned
| fruits, only an extremely small per-
| centage of them ever contain any add
| ed substances whatever, except food
and perhaps little salt or sugar. L
| think this fact ought to be welt ad-
vertised and published.
Or course do not include In canned
goods, articles which have not been
sterilized, for in such articles preserv-
| atives. are often employed. l do not
think the great canning trade should
suffer because such an insignificant
few persist In either using artificial
color, artificial sweetener, or chem
ical preventative.
Under the rules OF the department
of agriculture certain substances may
be used in foods legally, provided their
presence Is plainly stated upon the la
bel Buyers of canned goods there.
fore have certain method of pro-
| tecting themselves In this matter, and
that is to look at the label. When we
consider the immense benefit CT tho
canning industry to the consuming
public, it appears to me that we ought
l to use every honorable endeavor to
set the minds of the community right
in regard to the composition Of such
articles. OF course some canned goods
are of better quality than others. that
IS natural and necessary conse-
quence; but the impression that some
people obtain that all canned goods
contain artificial colors, artificial sweet
eners, and preservativas, Is a most err
roneous one and Is harmful to the
trade. ] am, as you know a believer
in canned goods and In the canning
process. l think it is a blessing, and
blessing which is not In disguise.
realize as well as anyone that public
, prejudice is difficult to control and to
rectify, but I should like to do as
} much as can to help this good trade
along by appealing to the public not
to condemn the whole. trade because
occasionally sample may be found
which is not in that state of purity
which the public demands. Let the
0 people give their confidence to the
$ trade and let them eliminate those

England, Germany, Russia and Aus
tria. In the factories of these coun-
tries 100000 people are employed. For
several years experiments have been
under way in this country with this
lace, and after long drawn out strug-
gle, it is being manufactured on a
paying basis in Elmyra, Ohio.
Last year the laces imported into
this country cost the American peo-
pie S60000,000. There is 60 per cent
duty on laces, which brings the price
to the present high figure.
With valenciennes lace manufactur-
ed in this country, even at the price
that prevails today, the country would
be vastly better off, for the millions
now paid for foreign made article
would be paid to the home manufac,
turer and thus be paid out in salaries
and through other channels without
being taken out of home circulation.
Every manufacturing triumph of
this kind which makes America a
competitor in fields now monopolized
by foreign manufacturers is dis.
tinct gain for this country.

Commenting on the loss to Center
Vile in the transfer of the Fifty-fifth
regiment band to Clarinda, the Bur-
lington Hawk-Eye declares that good
band is a matter of Importance and a
source of just pride to every town.
There was a time, says the Hawk-Eye
when the state was wont to point
with pride to Phinney's Iowa state
band, and the rest of the state can
never forgive Des Moines for her fail
ure to give that organization the sun
port which it needed to keep it alive
and in first class condition. Smaller
towns are maintaining most excellent
organizations, and it is fair to stare
that as in SO many other respects
Iowa leads the union, so far as excel,
lent bands and first class band music
are concerned.
Ottumwa realizes the value of its
band the Fifty-fourth, and is just
proud enough of it to advance the
claim tEat there is not band in the
country, excepting one Or two of tbs
concert bands of international fame
that can surpass it. The band has
repaid the efforts made in its behal1
by Ottumwans many times over b.
the advertising it has brought the city
on it's trips abroad.

Bishop Samuel Fallows of Chicago
took issue in recent sermon with
some of the more enthusiastic speak
ers at the peace congress. War, he
declared, is ever to be waged against
the wrong. He explained his views
further:
AS men are constituted it means
that physical force must often be en-
ployed that right may prevail. 1t there.
fore means that the struggle between
nations must take place as it does be.
tween individuals.
I'VE are no more justified in pour
ing obloquy upon the soldier than
upon the sheriff or the policemen OF
upon the judge who may direct these
officers to do their duty.
General disarmament as a consum
nation deyoutly to be wished. But II
would be suicide for one nation tc
disarm while the other nations are
multiplying the ornaments of war
1t may be a paradox for the United
States to multiply ships of war anc
coast defenses while it's mission is
clearly to bring peace to the world
But the paradox is no greater thar
that contained in the words of Christ
