while the machinery wa id motion,
resulting in instant death. One arm
war torn off at the shoulder and the
other one cut nfTbolow the elbow. One

answer in the contested election case
brought by W. 8. Vanderberg, hi de
feated populist opponent. The ans
wer, like the complaint, contain 32
page of type written copy, in which
the defendant denies that the plaintiff
received a plurality of the legal vote
in the district at the last general
election, and seta up in rebuttal that
fraud were perpetrated in oerlain
populist strongholds, thereby depriv
ing the contestce of many votes to
which he wa justly entitled. These

Buimjino A Uailroad. Rainier
probably presents the busiest scene of
any place in the county just now. The
construction work of the Astoria rail
road i going on there with about
twenty team jd scrapers grading
(he principal street. Tbe dirt is being
used to muke the large All necessary
between Kainier and Cedar Lauding.
The contractor hav agreed to grade
all the principal streets of the town in
Older to get earth for the (ill, and eveu
then they will not have enough by
many thousand of yard. The street
grading, however, is about the only
present benefit Kainier will derive
from the construction of the road
through town, for the workmen do
not purchase any aupplie from the
local merchant because they ar re-
?uired to buy what they consume
roin the contrsctors store which i
tationod there for that especial pur
pose. The men are paid $1.60 per
day anJ required to board at the com
pany mess house at a cost of $-1.60 per
week, thus paying half they receive
for board. In addition to this hos
pital dues to theanioiiutof fl a month
is charged op to the workmen. Mar
ried men living in the town are not
employed because tbey can aot afford
lo work for $4 25 per week, which i
all they would hav left after paying
board and hospital due. But the As
toria railroad i actually building, and
the work i being done in real railroad
style, every yard ot earth being placed
with the intention ot making a good
roadbed. A trip down tbe river will
convince anyone that the Astoria
railroad i lo be a reality.

TUB TRAIL CREEK MINE8.
Last week the junior proprietor of this
paper returned from a four week's trip
through the Trail creek mining district In
British Columbia. A few words In expla
nation of the resources of that country and
tlis wealth of tbe mines might be Interest
ing to the readers of this paper, lienre In
an abrevlated way I will attempt to en
lighten you ;
Rossland, which Is the central point for
quit all that section of the dominion, Is a
town of abeut 8000 inhabitants, Including
miners and mine operators, and is lest tlian
four years old. It Is located about twenty
miles Inside the dominion boundary line,
and is 140 miles north ef Spokane. At
this town are located tbe mot wealthy
nines In the Kootente districts tbe La Rol,
War Knglo, Center Star, Cliff, Josle, City
of Spokane, Nickel Plate, and many other
tins properties all In a radius of perhaps
mie mile, and all adjoining tlis.townslte of
Kosiland. It Is to this place that all travel
centers, and from thsre prospectors go In
ail directions. Tbe entire country for hun
dreds of miles, one might say, is an Im
mense body of rich mineral. Of the mines
at itossland, which I have mentiomt above,
tber Is but one which Is shipping or tbe
Le Itol and from that one are dally ship
ped 80 tons of ore, which net tbe owners
more than 1100 per ton. Tbe ore Is taken
fcj Trail, seven miles distant on the Colum
bia river, to a smelter, where It is reduced,
The machinery at that mine Is of sufficient
capacity and the fore of men sufficiently
large to enabs the operators to lift 200 tons
of ore per day, which, with the exception
of tbe 80 tons tbat are shipped, goes on the
dump, and thore it will reiaala until such
time as there can be a smelter built with
sufficient capacity to reduce tbe entire out
pat of that and other mines.
It should not be understood that Le Rol
is the only mine in operation, for every one
of the mines mentioned are actively en
gaged In raising hundreds of tons of ore
every day. All of this ore, of course, goes
to the dump for want of means of transpor
tation and a smelter to reduce It, both of
which will come as fast at men and money
can secure them. Just west of Roailand,
less tbaa a quarter of a mile distant, is
Red mountain, from which so much rich
ore is being taken. This mountain is nearly
round, and to its summit is perhaps 2400
feet above the city. As development work
progresses, interested parties and experts
ar more fully convinced tbat this hill is
one solid body of mineral, aad this one par
ticular mountain it not tbe only one on
which so much development work Is being
done. Oa every side of the city are to be
seen large mining plants being erected and
in operation. As I stated before, tbe entire
country has Su far been prospected and de
veloped at to substantiate tbe belief tbat
there la one Immense, solid mass of min
eral the country over.
Eighteen miles above Trail, on the oppo
site side of tbe Columbia river, there is an
other mining vamp beiag developed and
built up, which promises to b little behind
Camp Rossland in wealth. This is Mont
gomery camp, belter known as Waterloo.
There are at present several group of pros
pects being developed by wealthy corpora
tions at this camp, and there no longer re
mains a doubt as to the future of the place,
as at tbat camp, too, are immense bodies
of mineral. I am only repeating what I
heard hundreds of people remark, when I
say that there is no longer any donbt as
to the future of these camps, and that the
eyes of tbe world srs turned in that direc
tion. Gold exist in paying quantities, be
sides the country is Immensely rich ia cop
per and Iron.
Business prospects are good in all that
section of country, especially at Rossland,
where there Is such an immense volume of
trade carried on. Kvory brunch of busi
ness known to the commercial world Is to
be found there, and the transient travel is
of such magnitude as to support it.
The town of Rossland is an unincorpor
ated place, and notwithstanding tbe fact
of Its being; in Canada, the style of the
town is strictly American, nevertheless
tbe city is under control of the dominion
government. The mining recorder is the
city's executive, and to him all plans must
be submitted. He, in his dignity, slta as
judge and jury, and he sees tbat tbe law is
enforced to tbe letter. Tbere exists very
llttlo litigation because one's rights are re
spected. Tbe town of Trail, too , is destined to be
of no little Importance as a business center,
It being tbe port ot entrv on the dominion
siJe of the line. It is the terminus of the
narrow guage railroad running to Rossland,
the large smelter being also located at that
place. There, too,' is already to be found
great activity In all lines of business, and
as the country develops so also will Trail
grow and develop into a beautiful city, pos
sessing much wealth.
Tbe city of Northport, the American port
of entry, which Is located on the left hand
bank of the Columbia river, fourteen miles
Inside the line, is destined to be a city of
much commercial importance. It is at
this place that all the freight and passen
ger traffic is transferred to steamers for
British Columbia points, ft being on the
lino of the Spokane Falls and Northern
railroad, besides it is to be made the termi
nus of the Red Mountain road now being
built from Rossland. Tbis is to be a stand
ard gauge road, and is being built by the
Corhln syndicate for the purpose of trans
porting the ore from the Trail creek min
ing district.
Because of no mention having been
made ot the mineral deposits of tbe Col
ville reservation it does not lessen their Im
portance or cast a doubt as to their wealth.
In this section of country are just ar good
propositions as in either of the district
above mentioned. The ore is, perhaps, of
a little different nature, but the Colville is
certain to assert its possessions. D. D.
Country justice of the peace can
secure all necessary blank at this
office on short notice.

CROPS AND WEATHER.
The following is the crop and weather re
port for the week ending August 17 :
Weather Warmer weather prevailed
than during the preceding week. The
mean temperature was 08 degrees, a rise of
4 dgrees, the Increase being principally In
tne neat of tne uay. ine mgueai mmim
ture for the week was Ml degrees at K:
burg on the 11th, and the lowest was SO de
grees, which occurred on Tuesday morning,
'ibe temperature decreased from Friday.
A mist prevailed on Holiday morning,
which amounted to from a trace to .01 of
an inch. The weatber was clear up to
Friday; since then high fog has prevailed
in the mornings, clearing oil in the after
noon. The winds have been variable,
though generally northerly, and light In
force. Ibe smoke, which was cleared
away by the rains, is again, appearing and
becoming more dense,
Crops Harvesting and threshing con
tinue. The weather has been favorable for
tbis work, as well as for plowing for fall
sown grain. Mowing is being nurhed with
vigor, and more than usual will be done.
The threshing returns show the full effects
of the unfavorable year. Farms that have
always had from 36 to 40 bushels of fall
sown grain tier acre, have, this year, from
20 to 30 bushels. Early spring-sown grain
is poorer, yielding only from 10 to 18 bush
els per acre. Late-sown spring grain will
yield even less. The grain la somewhat
smaller, and In places shriveled; this was
caused by the hot, dry weather of July.
Fur the first time in the history of the
country the grain crop is poor in a com
parative sense. Oats are proportionately
poor, and tbe same with other grain. Har
vesting aiM threshing will continue for two
weeks longer. Reports this week indicate
that the rains did no damage, but were of
great benefit to gardens ani late-sown
grain. The potato crop was injured by the
ryjuly wea'ber, but it has improved
since the rain. Corn is unusually good.
Corn is not grown extensively in Oregon,
tor the cool nights are Injurious to its
growth and development; this year, bow
ever, the heat of July, which was unusual,
proved very beneficial to the corn, and the
rains then following gave ii unusual growtb.
Hops are yet in burr, and from present in
dications the picking will be ten days later
than usual. Many hopya'ds have not
been cultivated this year, owing to the
poor hop market, but those that have been
cultivated are mukiog good growth.
Prunes are ripening, but owing to the fail
ure of the prune crop manv growers will
not have enough to run their dryer, while
others will club together and in tbis way
obtain enough green fruit to warrant the
running ot the dryers. Peaches are ripen
ing, but they, too, are a very deficient
crop. Apples are not as good as usual,
neither in quantity nor quality. Pears are
ripening and thev will be a very fair crop.
Blackberries continue to be quite plentiful.
Watermelons and cassabaa are ripe and are
very plentiful. The fruit crop being a par
tial failure, and the grain crop as well,
causes some to report the conditions,
really worse than what they are. The cli
matic conditions of May and fore part of
June were phenomenal, and the result is a
phenomena in the grain and fruit; Ibat Is,
a shortage, conditions new to Oregon.
The weatber conditions at present Indi
cate continued fair weatber and slight tem
perature changes for tbe next week.
Warmer wealber will prevail in tbe after
noon and it will be cooler at night, thus
making the average about the same.
Within tbe next two weeks cooler weather,
day and night, will prevail. Should the
terapeiature become by September 1 much
cooler than it usually is, then the fall rains
will set in- earlier than usual; but should
temperature above the normal prevail,
then tbe rains will be delayed. Meteoro
logical xcience has ni I advanced to such a
degree as yet as to allow of long-range
and accurate forecasts; all long-range
weather forecasts, covering several weeks
or months, are based on unreliable data;
they are not specific, intelligent or reliable.
Through the work of tbe weather bureau
it is probable tbat tbe time will come when
very accurate short-time, and quite reliable
long-time forecasts can be issued.
