Hundreds of Wayfarers from the crowded city every season travel over this 80- mile stretch of road, thai heads crammed with visions of piscatory triumphs and yet those who .foully fcnow .the lively, gurgling, little 'mouutain sjream thai cheers them ou their vay may be counted on the fingers of one hi'uj. -- - '"Sow day ft may peeome a popular summer fo te put one finger upon the map, select a fMraiislng mountain stream for exploration so Ktadyi vt nen' with a team, of hardy wAstur ai a wagon load of merry hearts, 1ha-x tj trust mouth to source, through wild s.d and Bower-tangled meadow, till the glen iics t canyon, the canyon runs into a moHBtafn gorge, and sheep-dotted fields give way to glaciers aud alpine height, that can silly bo traversed afoot, with ropes and stal wart trusty guides. , The explorer who thus at tempt's to trace out the course of the White Salmon river feds all the enthusiasm of original invcstigation..He becomes an ardent student of geography and history at close range, antf Rntb U the most fascinating diversion in - the world. : ' ', .'i".';" ' ''-,''',- St tfees not take him long to discover that no correct map has ever been made of the region, and when he returns from his Jaunt, sun-blistered and unshaven, but happy, ho is sure to utttshcta the .8 rst man he ..meets" 'on the atre!, and, pulling a ragged and bepenciled rquare of folded paper from his breast coat pocket, point out all the glaring and idiotic er rors of the pretended mr p-maker.; The mount ains are put in wrong ; the rivers are wrong. ... riw.,u.'tu ni.unintii-v nnthtnc riirht About it. ex cept the township lines, v" ' -.......-- - Rises ill a Glacier. "a - And then he will show you how ' White .'Salmon river rises in a glacier on the south west side of Mount Adams, where its waters can be seen glistening beneath the snow and ice; how it flows underground until it reaches the snow line, going west, then southeast, then three miles south, and then two miles south east, then south behaving altogether as If it had quite lost its head. Perhaps it has ab sorbed some of the populistic notions of its na tive state. At any rata it goes round and found, making almost a complete circle of 25 miles to. Trout lake, where It apparently re gains Its reason and rushes headlong south, in the strclghtest, most direct line possible, for .Oregon, as though bent upon getting cut of the state ol Washington without delay. , Stost people, the Original Investigator goes on to say and there is a touch of scorn in his voice imagine that because the road that runs alongside of the White Salmon is full of wind tugs and crooks, the river is also full of wind ings and crooks. .But this Is not at all the case. The rood is as crochety as a woman, but the river ia as blunt and straightforward as the typical old Oregonian. In this respect, continues-the Original Investigator, with an air of wisdom, it differs greatly from the ordinary mountain stream, which pursues quite a tor tuous course, Really the Whfte Salmon is a tery estsaordinary river. :; ? Its namef That is derived from the pale color of the fish found in Its waters. These are M, worn-out salmon. After they have spawned their flesh turns white, and they are so weak that it is an easy matter to catch them. For this reason the Indians used to flock to the river in large numbers every year in the fish ing season, ill order to dry enough fish to last through the winter. Many interesting relics have foeuu found in this famous old camping ground of the Klickitats, and the collector of joweled Indian arrowheads who visits this spot, at the river's mouth, will be able to add considerably to his stock of curios. .m Home Burned, but Scalps Saved. It was near this spot that E. S. Joslyn lived, the first white settler In the section, who made his home there about 45 years ' ago, and was burned out twice by the Indians. Once in the earlv '50s his wife crossed the river to find a squ.iw whom she needed to help her wash, She caught sight of groups of unfamiliar, fiercely painted faces among the braves it was about the time of the CascadeB massacre but her suspicions were not .aroused till she re ceived a significant sign from "Indian John son," whom old pioneers will remember as a faithhil and valued friend to the whites; With out further parleying she took her departure, aud, recrossing to the spot where she had tied her horse, found that animal snorting and plungiug.wlldly, with distended nostrils and nlooiisk& eyes in a frenzy of excitement at something he had seen. Thoroughly terrified by this time, she leapod upon his back, and they together went bounding , toward home with the speed of the wind. There Mrs.Joslyn found her husband, al ready warned, ready to flee for his life and merely awaiting her arrival. The family left everything behind them, and, only a few min utes after they were out of sight, theft house was plundered and burned to the ground, amid the w hoops and yells of the Indians. ' After ward the Jostyns returned and made another home,, which was also burned. Their place is now owned by A, R. Byrket. . " ilh this exception, due to no fault of their w o the early settlers along the White Salmon Hwd 011 very good terms with the Indians.

Famous Jewett Farm. Barry Jywett is ji pioneer of 25. years ago, : He has boon extensively engaged in the nursery business and has always been a good friend of the lujiiaus, who call him "Man oi God" sag IiaIio tyea and frequently ask hint to do their measuring tor them, when dealing with other i&ei. The Jewett farm contains about 800 bucisvuud is well known for its generous hos ptUaity c-Wuiue- farul products and romantic houuty oi situation. The land lies on a level prj.uuului'y about 4iX) feet ill height, and jut ting out sharply towards (he Columbia river. Tuo view up aud down the river from these beetling rocks is one of wild grandeur. IVrcued on this bluff, and surrounded by ex toilenvu.iawns and flower gardens, is the pietur u&ttuc, vine-covered farmhouse, cheering the aye witii Us white wails aud bright red roof. Xedr it is a narrow and 'precipitous gorge, where a mountain stream tails over fern-covered rocks', 300 or 400 feet below.' Jersey cream ana butter and vineyards and orchards of choice uuits uombine to make lifo comfortable, wlijiesojiie and happy iu this romantic spot, as many Portland people who have enjoyed the hospitality of the Jewett iarm van testily. Airs. Jewett, even mure tnan most pioneers, has helped to make nistory. Sue was the lirsl Bui Lurried the mails to Camas v.rairie. and U 0118 time, school director. She has I managed the business of the farm, taught music, cooked delectable dinners, furnished contributions to The Arena, and since she was 15 years of ago has, at one time and another, raised twenty children, of various ages, most of thorn orphans, especially consigned to her her motherly care. These are now sturdy lads aud lassies, efficient and happy-hearted work ers in the household, or on the farnw With all this display of boundless energy Mrs. Jewett, from her childhood up, has had to content! with, bodily Infirmities such as would have fendered the ordinary woman useless She If at present contemplating establishing a stock farm for the children and making a fish pone' that shall rival Trout lake. . ( ' . '-."':' Pioneer- Woman's Indomitable : Pluck. At least one illustration of her pluck in over coming difficulties has become known fron one end of the state of Washington to the other. About six years ago she invited the state Grange to meet at her home. - Just before the time of the meeting, the house was burned to the ground. Not a whit daunted, she put her wits and hands to work and, in less than two weeks she and her husband entertained the Grange in royal style, feeding several hundred people on barbecued ox, lemon pie, strawber ries and the like. The grange women of the neighborhood helped her serve these to her guests.; 8ho found beds for over a hundred persons on this occasion,, and made much of the bedclothing hersalf. - - The country that borders on the White Salmon river, like every other paradise, shows the trail of the serpent. Rattlesnakes are plen tiful there, as well as strawberries. The first white settlers, found them in great numbers, and the situation was rendered worse by the superstitious fancies of the Klickitat Indians, who refused to extirpate them, on the ground that every rattlesnakewas a departed chief of great. renown, who would curse them if they did him harm a queer form a of -doctrine of transmigration of souls. The Indians have the same superstition regarding the coyote and the buzzard. At present the rattlesnakes are chiefly confined to the fastnesses of a certain mountain which a body need not climb unless he wish to and a'' sequestered Rattlesnake creek, where they have set up an exclusive oligarchy of their own, which no one cares to uisturo. ; t .. ... , , ...... Eight miles from the mouth of the White Salmon, one comes to the falls, where the foam ing river, seen against a dark background of fir trees, plunges headlong down Its rocky bed a distance of 20 feet or more. From here on the climb to Trout lake about 1800 feet above sea level is over an easy grade, through dense forests as yet undosecratod by fire or ax. Sportsman's Paradise. In their shady thickets, cougars, wild cats, coyotes and bears have their lair. Wild cana ries, several species of snow bird, magpies, black birds, blue lays and hawks make their home in the tree tops, while pheasant, grouse and a few quail are in the brush below, to tempt the sportsman. Most of the heavy tim ber along the river Is owned by R. D. Cameron In some places the sides of the canyon rise ab ruptly to a height of-several hundred feet. ' It was in such a spot as this that the first ex ploring party from White Salmon to Trout lake crossed the river 15 years ago, at which time the Trout lake country was first explored and settled. The lake itself is really only a widen ing of Trout creek, which runs through a com paratively open ' country into the White Salmon. The-falls of Trout creek on the land of August Wagnitz, who controls the mill power of the little torrent, are fast becoming popular camping and picnic" grounds with Portland people. Old settlers say that since they first came, 15 years ago, the lake has filled up considerably. It is a beautiful marshy ex panse of water, half a mile in length by one fourth of a mile wide, and very shallow, being only about seven or eight feet deep. It lies about 10 miles from the snow line of Mount Adams,, which rises grandly to the north of it. There are two other lakes In this Section Steamboat lake, where Trout stream heads, containing a mound like the bow of a boat, and Fish lake, which is extraordinarily full of very large trout, 800 to 400 in a school. Very few anglers resort there, however, since the lake is too fur away and inaccessible to make it possi ble to preserve the fish until they can return to the settlement. - - 'r' Profitable Dairy Business. '' The countrjr about Trout lake is fast growing famous for its dairies, its cheese factories and stockraising. In the dairy business the profit averages f35 a head, though 440 a head was made last year by one dairy. The settlers, numbering about 35 families, are principally thrifty Germans and Swiss. Peter Stoler, who arrived in .'80, was the first pioneer. On the sidos of Mount Adams are great sheep ranges. This year 70,000 sheep were pastured on the south slope, between the Cispus and White Salmon, and 135,000 more on the north slope, between the north bank of the Muddy and the "divide" between the' Cispus and White Salmon. - . . ' . .. ; : - The ice-caves are probably the best-known feature of this section. One of these is 12 or 14 feet in height, and contains thousands of shin ing icicles, from one to two feet thick, the ice floor being about the same thickness. The sparkling beauty of the effect may easily be im agined. The water, trickling down through the top of the cave, froze, this year, In July. There used to be massive columns of ice ex tending from floor to roof, but these have been cut away by practical-minded dairymen, who used them for preserving butter. The large lava cave, which is nearly a mile ill length, 50 feet high and 25 feet broad, is fully as interesting as the ice caves. It has been known only three years. The opening is from the top, a 50-foot ladder Carrying one down in to what seems to the timorous stranger the in fernal pit Itself. A mile of Cimmerian dark ness stretches before him, . What a capital lair it would make for wild beasts ; a bear, or a cou gar, or a wildcat, might easily make the descent from the ground above, What if a malicious Indian, one of the hundreds gallop ing over the country, should come along and take that ladder away,' leaving the explorer 50 feet away from sunlight and happiness, -down in this musty blackness? - " ... ' 'i EXPANSION STRONG. "Expansion is strong ", in the East,-" : says Senator , b'imon, who has just returned from Washing ton. ."Our government has taken a forward position . in the far East and we cannot retreat without dis honor, ; The ; American people would never : sanction the surren der of a foot of ground won1 by our arms in the East. ' Neither will they indorse - the political party whose leaders propose to throw away the vast opportunities which possession of the Philippines : has opened to our commerce in the Jiast. . The American people are a living nation, not a dying one. They are determined to have, their share of the trade which the awak ening of Asia is sure to create, and no man or combination of men can turn them back. They are not go ing to be turned out of China any more than they were turned out of Oregon more than 50 years ago. 1 iound republicans generally in favor of expansion and the demo crats divided.

It is proba ble, that if the Spanish war had been a war of our own seeking, we should ' now have the " democrats united solidly' against us.'

The indications are that Bryan will be the demo- cratnj nominee. If he ; is . norm nated, the republican candidate, no. matter ., who he may , be,, ; will ' be elected. Bryan and Bryanism are lining up for. their final . overthrow next year. They will face a united prosperous ' and ' happy country and their defeat will be overwhelm ing. ' The fate ; that awaits them ought to be a lasting object-lesson to all who seek, to obstruct national progress and menace the material welfare of the country."
