Be'ng from a mining county the new blue iky law, when In the process of formation, wai flac tS In bltf Jjanda by the legislative as sembly and be along with Ben Olcott, proceeded to bertnre father and god father to the measure, upon ua and scarcely an aore of ground baa been plowed, at any rate only a email area of the land to be tilled baa felt the -plow, the outlook for an excellent farmtaff season la not of the best.. There is however, I'ttle discourage aient among the ranchers for should the weather be agreeable to farming pursuits for (he next few weeks It will be but a few days until the tfx horse (earns and traction' engines turn the soil fcud plain the grain. W.th ithe rains now coming and the rver In an uncertain condition there need be no surprise if farming is Im leded to a still greater extent, which v'.'l rai when ho 'settled weather rtc-'-s s'Hve everyone who is capable of doing furra work should be drafted Into service throughout the valley. rc7affie7 Dheciory Economical Menj) FBATEKSAL ORDERS 4.

Civil Venice Examinations. The IT. S.

Its Intention was to pro tect the person from being jobbed with worthless sltock. Representative (Mitchell and Secretary of State Ol cott very proudly took credit for the passage of the measure. Tbe news ' papers of the state screamed about the merits of It. But, alas, there Is a Joker In it, ac- cording 1o latest dec'sions, and a mining company cannot piace Its stock on the market unless values and earning power is guaranteed. How will Representative Mitchell manage . to live in Baker county where mines are being . constantly promoted How will be be able to meet Fred Mellts Jas. Howard, and other prominent mining people of Ba ker face to face? Mining companes cainot guaran tee dividends. Every mine la a gam ble and necessarily so. ' Some are better than others. But the sole Idea of floating a mining company is to take partners In order to obtain large capital to do things that the Indvid ual Is not able to do. When the cap ital s squandered and not used for development purposes then the crime Is committed, but when the money is honestly spent in Improving and de veloping the mine it Is an hones!, transaction If the ore vein never pays Tor the people at the head have used I their best imi irmpnf nn.t ......... in the emerpriM. What the blue sky law should have provided for, Is honest expemVture of the company's funds, but never uuifyr any circumstance should.

The salaries paid are from 11200 to $1500 per an num.

The work will last for two or three years, and capable and effic ient empoyees will probably be in de mand for transfer to some other re clamation project when tbe present work Is finished.
