Union, Washington Being
Second.
In the appendix of the annual report
of Land Commissioner Richards, It was
shown that there was nearly four times
as many timber entries tiled in Oregon
during the fiscal year ended June 30th
last, as were filed during the previous
twelve months. Last year, as in the
year preceding, there were more tim
ber entries recorded In the Roseburg
land office than elsewhere In Oregon.
In the fiscal year 1902, there were 461
timber entries in Roseburg district,
embracing 71,457 acres. From these
sales the government derived $178,(144.
During the past year Roseburg district
reported 1700 timber entries, embracing
261,533 acros.
The Lakeview district s;ands next to
Roseburg in the importance of Us tim
ber land busluess. Where this otlice in
1902 reported only 80 timbor entries,
covering 11,197 acres, it reports for
the last year 650 timber entries, em
bracing 143,452 acres. Its receipts on
account of the increased timber busi
ness show an advance from $27,992 to
to $358,631. In its importance of the
timber land entries the LiGrande dis
trict ranks third. In 1902 there were
only 116 timber entries filed in that
ofilee, embracing 14,456 acres. last
year there were 815 entries, covering
124,299 acres.
On account of this Increase In busi
ness there has been an advance in re
ceipts at La Grande from $36,141 to
$310,750.

nearly 350,000 more from the sales of
Its timber lands than did any other

RICH STRIKE
Wonderful Placer Discovery on
Sixes River,
AVERAGES $20.00 PER YARD
Some of the Gravel Yields as High as
$4.00 to the Pan
Developments. Special to Evening Review.
Ecklev, Oregon, Jan. 29. A wonder
fully rich strike of placer gold has just
been made in the Sixes River district,
Curry county. The Sixes Mining Co.
recently completed a small hydraulic
plant on their property and had only
piped four days when they struck
gravel that would yield $4.00 in gold
per pan, thus rivaling the famous Klon
dike discoveries of a few years ago.
The entire bank about 20 feet high was
then carefully prospected and
found to contain gold enough to yield
$20 per cubic yard of gravel. In is
same locality was worked to a very
small extent in the early '50s, and was
abandoned within a few feet of this
wonderful deposit of untold wealth now
just discovered.
The South Sixes Mining Co. Is com
posed of the Harrison Bros, and Mr.
Benson, of Myrtle Point. Harrison
Bros, are old-thne prospectors in this
vicinity.
Plans for extensive development
work have been adopted and operations
are now under way. The Commander
J Mining Co. has property adjoining the

completely cured her. It's the most

Chicago's Fear of Fire.
CfliCAUo, Jan. 2J. Fire occurred Id
the building adjoining the Masonic
Temple this morning, the result of an
explosion of chemicals. Miss Mary
Varva, a young woman, was fatally
hurt. Chemist Rudolph was seriously
and soveral others slightly injured.
The flames gutted the flfuh and sixth
floors, occupied by the Gas Mantle
factory. Thirty thousand dollars will
be the damage.
The sensitiveness of Chicagoans to
Are was again demonstrated when
thousands blocked the streets, making
them impassable. Police efforts to
clear the streets were futile.
The continued outbreaking of fire In
this district seems a strange fatality.
The Iroquois is still fresh In the
memory of all, and the breaking out of
fire causes the people to become
greatly excited and trayond the control
of the police, while prior to the late
disaster a lire alarm would attract only
casual notice, now the whole populace
rushes out In an uncontrollable mass.
Every precaution Is being taken in
all of the largo buildings to prevent
Are, but they seem to burn In spite of
this. Kvory alarm of flro brings fear to
persons in every soot I on of this big
city.

THE SUPREME COURT
Oregon's Highest Tribunal Nearly Up
With Its Cases.
Saf.em, Or. Jan. 28. The suprema
court has about caught up with all the
business demanding its attention at
this time, and unless there is a flood of
appeal litigation coming soon, the
decks will be entirely clear in a short.
time. There are now 14 cases in the
hands of the court, arguments in which
have been submitted, and these will
doubtless be decided in a few weeks.
In addition to these cases there are
live cases now on the calendar to be
argued witliia the next two weeks,
including those set for hearing last
evening, and there are 12 cases on the
bar docket ready to be set for hearing
as soon as the attorneys are prepared
to have the dates for the hearing llxed.
This is quite a contrast to the state of
Washington, where the supreme court
had 111) cases ready for trial on Jan
uaiy 1, as soon as the court could give
them attention. Such a state of affairs
will probably not exist In Oregon for a.
long time. A few years ago, however,
things were different. For years the
Oregon supreme court was from 200 to
i"0 cases behind, and it took from two
to two and one-half years for a case to
come up for Unal hearing and disposi
tion after the appeal was taken. This
was not speedy justice, but the court
could not help the blockade. Efforts
were several times mode to give relief
by legislation in the way of a supreme
court commission to hear cases, but lb
always failed. Finally the legislature
provided for stenographers for each of
the justices and with the aid of these
the court soon disposed of the accumu
latlon of business. Prior to that time
many of the decisions were written out.
by the court in long hand. '
The present justices of the court,
Hons. P. A. Moore, It. S. Bean and
C. K. Wolverton, are hard worker, and
probably put In more hour, of work,
every day than do any other like offi
cials on the Poclllo coast.
