WEAVER IN PORTLAND "You would be surnrised at the amount of tourist travel on the Pa-! citic highway at this season," said ' W. J. Weaver of Roseburg. "There are a dozen or more cars going through every day. Practically none ! of these tourists are from CalMor-1 nla, however, or rather do not carry I California license plates. The tour- lsts are from Oregon and Wash-! lngton. Most oT them are from Se- j attle, Aberdeen, Belllngham and other sections in Washington. The ( movement is southward rather! than northward, except where some of these Oregon or Washington people are returning home troru a few weeks In California." Mr. Wea-! ver has a hotel at Roseburg and another, recently opened, at Yreka, ; Cal. "There is considerable pros pecting around Yreka, which Is a county seat," he added. "A man took 818,000 in gold out of a pock et recently In a few days, loaded It Into his automobile and drove with the gold to the mint' at San Francisco, where he received his check and brought it back to Yreka and banked it. Until he re turned and made the deposit no one knew he had made a killing. There is a gold exhibit at the court house. The county has been buy ing odd pieces of gold for years until It is a notable collection. However, I'm told that the exhibit will not be sent away for show pur poses hereafter, for someone has been drilling nuggets and plugging the holes after extracting some of the gold.
