With n (llainonil drill pointing downward Into a IiIr limestone lodK, owned by tbo Gold Hay Realty company ncruMi Rogue river on the mountain just rtoulh of tills city, the Portland Ceniont cotripany of Portland Ih now ready to begin prospecting operations which, If the surface showing Is hiih talned to a reasonable depth, may moan the location of a niiiiiimoth camont factory at Gold Hill, tbo main portion of whose product, may be UHcd In building towuu, cities and ludiistrlal projects In tbu vast Inland empire of contral Oregon, yet to be developed by a Hystum of railroads now In course of count ruction. The Portland Ceniont company Ih composed of several of the loading capitalists of Portland. Tliu local opinion Is that these men have bcon "given a tip" that the Hill Hue will build through Gold Hill on Its way from central Oregon to the sea, and that they realize that Gold Hill is a strategic 'poinl for' the manufacture and distribution of cement, provided the raw material can bo obtained here. The presence of nn exputiBlve diamond drill outfit, representing an Investment of soveral thousand dol lars, with tbo additional expense of building both a power Hue and a pipe Hue up the mountain to a height 111 from river level, representing sev eral thousand dollars more, argues that reasonable hopes nro entertain ed that the right quality and quan tity of rock may be had. The belief that tho location of a comont plant at this point Is contin gent on the building of Hill's Oregon Trunk through Gold HIU Is strength ened by the fact that unless a market othor than that afforded by towns on tho main line of the Southern Pa cific between Portland and Frisco le avnilable, cement manufactured In Gold Hill could bo sold In only a very proscribed territory, whoso tnnrkol would not warrant tbo location hero or a plant of any size, or of a size such as might bo expected from a concern of tho character and finan cial standing of tho Portland Cement company. This proscription of terri tory Is duo to tho competition or Cal ifornia cement inanufnctiirerH, whose plants are located almost on tldo wntor, and who can ship their prod uct by boat to Portland, for lnstnnco, much cheaper than it could bo ship ped from Gold Hill. It could bo re shipped some dlstanco this way by rail rroin Portland and still dominate tho field. Tho now ton-cent into law juat passed by tho legislature, pro viding a rate of ton cents on llnio rock shlppod from Orogon points into Portland as a terminal, may innko it posslblo for Gold 1 1 111 to compote with California comont In the Port land Hold However, tho Idea that prevails in Gold Hill Is that in case a ceniont plant is located here the main inn Hon of Its product will go over tho Oregon Trunk Into tho great un developed empire of central Oregon, whore, following tho railroad con tit ruction, towns and cities will boom Into permanency In what Is now al umni WllllortlCMH.
