Of colirsu, Whlto never would havo ent ered tho Hits against Olcott had lie known ho was to havo been cleaned unmercifully In tha primaries, but being n mora military man and not a political prophet, ha didn't know ha wan duo fur a submerging, so ho Jumped onto the thin Ice. Wlilto Is anxious and busy, lie doesn't say ho Is anxious, but ho la. I to doesn't pretend to bo busy, but ho Is. Tho next leglslaturo means qulto a few things to him. If. he can remain In control of tho nntlonnl guard It Is going to mean qulto n bit In connection with his gubernatorial chances four yvnrs honco.

It mustn't bo forgotten that Whlto hun a lot of friends, llu has u lot of enemies, that Is true, but ho has n lot of' friends und will hnvo them scattered nbnut through tho leglsla turo. It depends on Just how many liu has ns to whethor tho leglslnturo can open the way for I'lerco to oust him. V If tho leglslnturo doesn't, it Is not. nt till outsldo of tho realm of possi bility for Plerco to mnko It so warm for Wlilto that vho either will oust himself or got oustod In other ways. Anyway, Whlto wants to romnln an adjutant gonoral. Of courso, tho mat tor of tho $4,800 salary has Its bear ings! Hut tho political bearing Is of most Importance, particularly to all other potontlal candldatos. Of course, n lurgo amount of water will splash ovor tho Central Orogon dam before 1020 und It may bo Idlo to speculate on what will happen politically In thnt year. , In the meantime, during tho tur moil and strlfo and stress which nro ugltntlng many minor mludB, the noodle under tho broad brimmed hat worn by tlio sago of tha Qrniulo Hondo Is apparently ns Immobllo as tha sphinx.

John Hlridl, (ilonwr raal ttlala CitUr of llano1, (alia tha ftarr.) Hound for the Wlllamottc valloy, n party of omlgrants with 145 wagons left Missouri In tho spring of 1846, (Stoldl relates. Their Journey, under taken before the Oregon trail was in tho constant uso which It received later, was comparatively uneventful. They met few Indians, and nono who woro hostilo or troublesome. On crossing tho Snake river, they found tha trail of previous parties obliterated, tho loose sand having been blown about 'until tho tracks could noljjo distinguished. Knowing that their goal was In n general westerly direction, and being Ignor ant of tha fact that tha trail took a turn to tho south at that point, the party proceeded nralght west, pass ing between Harney and Malheur lakes, where they camped one night. Sometime shortly after that, and before tho party reached the Des chutes, it camped on tho south slope of a wooded mountain. Whllo the men wore hunting about for wood and wntor, they found a creek, and exposed to vlow along its banks they found a layer of what they decided was exceptionally rich gold quartx. Scraping off an much of this as they could, tho excited emigrants placcd-lt In a water bucket which was, like most of the backetH carried on their wagons, painted blue. At this samo camp a child of an emigrant family died and was burled In ono of the shallow graves which are Innumerable along emigrant trails In tho' west. Over the grave tho party left a wagon which they abandoned at this point, it being their custom to leave tho wagons as they wero emptied of provisions, In many cases butchering for food the cattlo which had druwn the wagon. A fow dnyn later, while the party was crossing Crooked river about the present site of Post, tho wagon In which the bluo bucket filled with oro had bcon placed, tipped over, and most of tho contents of the wagon, Including the oro sample, were lost. The party re'erossed tho river near Prlncvillc, according to tho story as gathered by Steldl, and mounted to a plateau from which they could see Pilot Initio, which they bad been told by still earlier visitors to Central Oregon wcmld guide them to the Des chutes. Crossing the river here, they went on Into the Cascades and across ro the Wlllametto valley settlements. Thrco of the members of tho emi grant party started back from Eu gene somo tlmo later to search for tho DIuo Hucket ralno; but who they wero or what became of them Is not known. Tho story of tho discovery of gold oro of such apparent richness, however, became widely known, and many n party of prospectors has sought for tho creek where it was found. In (fiis early emigrant party was John Herry, a toll, capable carpenter from Missouri, who beenmo one of tho leaders In tho expedition, lie lived at Albany for 30 years, then went to Seattle, but later made his homo In Minnesota. Another mem ber of tho party was a Mrs. Bard- well, who also Inter returned to the mlddlo west. Both of them wero ac qunlnt'anccs of John Steld, andv-he had heard from them, before coming to Central Oregon, of their expert ences as emigrants in 1845. In 1902 Stoldl enmo to Bend, nnd hero ho heard the story of the' Bluo Bucket mine. Because of Its connec tion with his, old friends, the story Impressed him so deeply that he mado n trip back to Minnesota to question them as to the location of tho mine. Berry was, of course, by this time nn old man, nut buu vis orotm lu ni4ud and body, and ha ro; mombored in-detail the journey. Tho party had traveled two days after passing notweon me lanes wnicn uer ry hnd learned later wero Harney and Malhour. This statemortt was cor roborated by Mrs, Bnrdwell. It Is on this point that tho quea- tlon'as to whero tho mine was found rests.. Tho father of Jess Totherow of near Hedmond wns a mcmbor of tho omtgfnnt (rain, nnd was ono of thosp who told tho ntory or tuo lost mlno hero. According" to his .story and his description of tho roufo travclod, tho mineral wns discovered two dnya befbro.tho party reached tho Doschutos, which would havo located tho mlno on Bear creek1 or Pino treelf,' and much searching has been done along; .those streams. But Stoldl was Inclined to bellevo hts old friends, and shortly after ho, returned from visiting thorn, ho mot W. A. Pope, who had punched cattlo aU over Cen tral Oregon, Pope declared that ho knew whero the wagon and grave could be found, and the two men 'sot out to And tho quarts deposit, 58 years after the emigrants had stum bled onto It. t They drove to Buck mountain,' which would ho about tho place' wuero mo row wns totyid, according to John Horry. On tho south slope. of tho mountain, In a place which an nwered Berry's description of the piaco where, tho party camped, they" found a few remnants of a wagon Ilttlo beyond somo of tho Irons nnd a gravo which could barely be Identi fied as such, tho only Indication being' a rotted oak stake, evidently a pleco of si wagon pole. Less than a quarter of a mile from theso remnantn they found a dry creek bottom, a crevice 10 feet wide and of about the same depth. Tho bottom and walls- were lined with the gold-llkf; substance which tho emi grants described. Tho Blue Bucket mlno was found. Chipping off a quantity of the mln- erul, the prospectors hurried to Shan- Iko, the nearest railroad point, and went to tho Seattle assay office. Here they were told that the substance with the natural gold color wan mica. Steidl's persistence had resulted' In the relocation of the mine which prospectors had sought for over half a century; ho could claim credit for that, even though the quest did not add to his material riches. In spite of the evident certainty that tho mine found by Steldl was that found by the emigrants, prospec tors did not cease their search, and rumors of its discovery have been heard several times since,, the loca tions being widely spread over Cen tral Oregon; but to date no one has becomo wealthy as a result of such discovery, and none can so Inslcalljr prove tho finding of It as can Stelfll. The emigrant party which figures In the story may have been the first of Its kind to come this way, but even before that time. the pass through the Cascades at Odetl was known. The route which 'the party should have taken.led by Warner lake, dividing there. One route led across the mountains at Odell, the other sonth to the Sacramento valley. iTmiimiiiniiiiiiiiiiHinTir Among House Slippers iiiiiiiiiuiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii Most people look to Santa Clans .to provide them with house slippers and be always carries a generous supply of alt-kinds In his pack.
