THE BENTON DEMOCRAT OFFICIAL PAPER FOB BENTON COUNTY. SATURDAY,; JANUARY 18 REMOVAL.. , The office of the Benton Demo CBAT has been removed to the " Odrcn- eal building," two doors north of the Temple of Justice, on Third street. LESSONS OF THE FIRE. ; The late fire in our cily demonstrated two facts. One, a lack of sufficient hose, and the other, the necessity of more cis terns. Let our city authorities immedi ately take this matter , in hand, and pro Tide a more adequate protection against the devouring element. One hundred feet more of hose, on last Sunday morn ing, would have saved Manuel Knight's building, worth $1,500. Let this fact at once quiet all ideas of false economy, when such a trifling expense maybe the means of saving so much property. Farmers' Meeting. Elsewhere will be found a communication from Many Farmers," calling a meeting, in this city.on the 1st proximo two weeks from to-day to take into consideration the proposition of forming a Farmers' Club, for the purpose of building a ware house for storing grain, and also to pro- Tide for shipping their products to mar ket. This is a move in the right direc tion, and we nope to see the meeting largely attended. Our farmers have too long suffered by middle men and ship pers, ana it is high -time they were taking some steps for their" protection against unwarranted extortions. THE ETDIAXS ON YAQUJNA BAT!

As the steamer Annie Stewart, and the new boat now being bnilt, will be ready to run in the course of. two months, a lively competition in freight and passage may soon be expected between here and San Francisco, if there is any foundation in report. Miller's Tbial. A correspondent f . the Bulletin, writing from Eugene in regard to the late trial of L. D. Miller, pays a high tribute to the eloquence and religious learning of Hon. John Burnett but says that Judge Cheno- weth.our Radical Prosecuting Attorney, "lacks point and energy," and rarely succeeds in making his indictments stick- We are not a defender of Republican officeholders, in particular, but feel con strained to say that, whatever may be his other failings, Judge Chenoweth certainly possesses point, and has the energy to press matters, whenever oc casion offers. ' Nokth ! Pacific Terminus. The Seattle Dispatch says that property owners at lBelliogham bay have sent a party to New York to negotiate with the North Pacific Railroad Company to locate the terminus at that point, and offering the company one-half the lands on the bay and ten miles back, which 1-1 1 re i w a very iiDerai oner, ana wui.no doubt, secure . the consideration of the Directors of the company, for2 Belling- ham bay has much in its favor. Utah Judictaky. It has become practically impossible, remarks the Last werk, oh the authority of a gen tleman just up from the Bay, we stated that there was no undue excitement at Newport, and that no trouble with the Indians was apprehended. ' Since then, however, affairs have assumed a more portentions aspect. The savages still continue their wild dances, in the hope of bringing back to earth their dead braves, and pretend to have received a message from the Great Spirit to the ef fect that their friends will not return until some whites have been killed. Peo ple around JElk City are getting alarmed at the conduct of the Indians, and sev eral families have come into this valley for safety. The settlers in the vicinity of Toledo are building a block-house fort, for their protection. A gentleman who arrived here from Elk City last Tuesday, informs us that the Indian wives of old trappers who refuse to join in the barbarous dance, are sorely frightened, and cannot be induced to re main at their homes, -; unprotected by their husbands. On Saturday night last, the fine residence of E. N. Saw telle, three miles below Elk City, was laid in ashes, it is supposed by Indians. We subjoin the following, from the pen of a reliable citizen, which portrays reasons for serious alarm : Elk Citx, Jan. 12, 1873. Editoe Democrat : Quite an excitement was created here last night, by the burning of the dwel ling and outhouses on the premises of a,, in. hawtelle, a tew miles below this place. Men, women and children were at once alarmed, and, for safety, the lat ter were placea on board the schooner Lizzie, Capt. Lee giving them the sole use of the cabin. Messengers were at once dispatched to Pioneer, and Capt. Kellogg immediately got steam on the Oneatta, came down to this city, and moored alongside the schooner. The excitement became intense, and men, armed with Henry rifles, guus and pis tols, were picketed upon the outskirts of the town. No Indians were seen. This morning a meeting of citizens was called, at which Dr. Carter nresided. and Henry AhpeL acted as Secretary. A committee was appointed to bring in all the Indians suspected of firing the j.ne iouowmg testimony was ganized among them a regular system of judicial procedure ; , and asserting mat mere is no cause for alarm. The people of this 'county are too familiar with this gentleman's preferences for the Indian race over the white to place the slightest confidence in his actions or give any credulity to his reports in re gard to his particular pets. The recent actions of these " wards of the Govern ment' are too fearfully apparent to be misunderstood. While we would say nothing to create unnecessay alarm, it is, nevertheless, our duty, as a- rmblic journalist, to let facts be known. The settlers on Yaquina Bay are isolated and unprotected ; they are endeavoring to build up homes for themselves and their children, upon their 'own soil, in the wilderness ; their hearthstones have v,.. ,c.vi naoiu uj me iorcn or the sav age ; their lives put ' in jeopardy, and they now ask, and most surely deserve, protection from the ruthless hands of the treacherous enemy by which tbey- are surrounded. Let their demand be adequately met, and no half-way work be done. If speedy and decisive action be not taken by the Indian Department, let the citizens of Benton county ask authority of the Executive, and pro ceed at once to make a lasting peace with these redskins a peace which will forever secure perfect immunity to our citizens. JLY1J2KESTING TO FARMERS. Editor Democrat : At a meeting of the farmers of Phil omath Precinct, Benton county, Oregon, house. adduced On Friday, the 10th inst.. a Dletrpr by the name of California Jack, who was chopping wood for Mr. Kistler, did not come to work until late in the day. When asked by Mrs. Kisler to explain the cause of his tardiness, he replied that he was " sick at his heart, as lie bad spent the whole night in a talk with the ' Siwashes ' at Old Sambo's camp." Mrs. K. urged him to state what trans pired, when he made the following His. closures : The Indians were mad. and would, break into one house and- steal ictas, and also kill one man. In an swer te the question what man, he said he dare not tell, for, if he did bo, the Indians would kill him. Finally, when asked if the man referred to was Saw telle, be replied "Yes.", He further stated that a general outbreak would be made ; the Indians would kill all th whites, and appropriate their property. He said he had refused to consent to this proposition, and asked if the whiten would protect him When examined before the committee of citizens, this Indian denied the whole statement he had made to Mrs. Kistler, as narrated above. ; - Now, Mr. Editor, it is pitiful to see women and childrea friehtened to death by these savages, and .nmr..i led to leave their homes, at the dead hour of night, ahd seek safel y in rude torts.

The Sandwich Islakds. The President, in a recent conversation on the subject of the Hawaiian Islands affair, said in view of late publications concerning them, it was proper that all the facts should be known, which are briefly as follows : This Government had sent a United States vessel to the Hawaiian Islands to bring the King to San Francisco, he having' expressed a desire to travel through this country and thence go to Europe for the benefit of his health. About the time the vessel arrived at Honolulu the King died, This intelligence having been received by our Government, the commander of the Pacific squadron was instructed to send a vessel to the Islands in addition to one already there, simply to protect the rights of American citizens in case of emergency, and to see that other nations should take no undue advantage under the new Government. General fechoneld sailed on this vessel merely for the ben efit; ot his health. either on the bench or in the District Attorney's office in Utah. The United States District Court renders decisions and makes decrees, but they are impu dently eet at defiance by the- Mormons, and the Government does not enforce them. So a lawyer of talent and self-re epect cannot consent to remain. KeIigiotjSv -From many portions of the country come accounts of extensive revivals' of relgion.
