The demand from scientist and
tourists (or nn accurate ai d detail
ed map of the famous Canyon of
the Colorado in Ariiona has lad to
a resurvcy of this uniijuu region by
tho United Mates Ci'logioul Hur
vey, under the charge of Francois
. Mill then, topographs. Tlie
Grand Canyon, formerly reached
only by itage route over a desert
country ,has recently been accessible
by a branch lino of tho Santa Fe
route from Williams, and during
the one year that thin road hud been
in operation the Canyon ban been
visited by thousands of tourists.
In the imigiiilicence of its propor
tioiiH ami the g'amletir of its scenic
KttriK'tioiiH tho (Canyon bids air to
rival both the Yellowstone I'ark
and tho Yosemito Valley.
Tho United Stated Geological
Survey expects to publish a scries
ofatlus sheets covering tho entire
extent of the Grand Canyon proper
and considerable areas of the high
plateaux on cither Hide. The flrnt of
these sheets to be known an the
liright Angel, is nearly completed
and will be available to the public
some time next ummer. It in
cludes almost all of the scenery
visible from the Bright Angel
Hotel, familiar to every visitor.
The Coloiado traverses from East
to west the quadrangle represented
by this sheet and divides it almost
symmetrically. The new map will
be on a scale of ont utile to the
incli and the contour interval will
be SO feet. It will show every pin
nacle, spur, and gully in its true
proportion and each line of cliffs
and terraces may be traced along
the canyon walls.
The ' dimension? of the Grand
Canyon have been the subject of
much discussion ever since it was
first explored. It may therefore be
of interest to give tome figures
Uicen from this new survey. The
average width from rim to rim does
not excend 10 miles throughout the
Kaibab, or widest section of the
Canyon, and frequently narrows
down to 8 miles. The river docs not
occupy the middle of the gigantic
trough, but flows at a distance vary
ing between 1 and 3 miles from the
south sido. Practically all of the
magnificently sculptured pinnacles
and menu (the so-called temples)
lie north of the river, and at din
lances of from 5 to 7 miles from the
view points usually visited by tour
ists. The depth of the Grand Catv
yon, in one way, lias been over
stated, in another understated
Measured from the south rim the
total depth is considerably less than
a mile. From the rim at the liright
Angel Hotel, where the altitude is
C806 feet above sea level, to the
highwater murk of the river at the
foot ot the tourist trail, the drop is
4'.'10 feet. The highest point on
the south rim at the Grand
View Hotel is H feet,
about 4yX) feet above the river
From the north side, however, the
drop to the water level averages
considerably over a mile, and in
many places even exceeds GOOO feet.
It may be stated in a general way
that the north rim is from 1000 to
1200 feet higher than the south,
thus producing that high, even sky
line so striking in all views obtain
able by the tourist. The figures
here given are based on spirit levels
run in connection with the map
work. They are the first that have
ever been run to the bottom of the
chasm, and the high standard of
accuracy maintained throughout
will cause them to be considered
authoritative and final.
A Typical South African Store,
O. R. Larson, of Buy Villa, Sundays
Biver, Cape Colony, conducts a store
typical of Sou III Africa, at which ci n
be purchased anything from the pro
verbial "needle to an anchor." This
tore is situated in a vsllsy nine miles
from the n"srt railway station and
about twenty-five miles from the near
est town, Mr. Larson says: ''I am
favored with the custom of farmer
within a radius of thirty miles, to
many of whom I have supplied Cham
berlain's remedies. All testify to their
value in a household where a doctor's
advice is almost nut of the question.
Within one mile of my store the pop
ulation is perhaps sixty. Of the,
within the psit twelve mouths, no lens
thsn fourteen have been absolutely
cured by Chamberlain's Cough Reme
dy. This must surely be a record.'
For isle by all (IniKnists. ,

Within the past three years 200
Mormons have settled in the
Grande Rondo Valley. They
have purchased some of the choic
est farms on tho Sand Kidge, and
divided Ihem up into 20, '10, and
HO acre tracts, and are raising
sugar beets principally. In the
city of La Grand they have a com
modious church building with a
seating capacity for about 500
people.
They own the beet sugar factory,
have recently purchased the plant
of the Grande Rondo LimiW Com
pany at I'erry, by far the most
complete sawmill in Kastern Ore
gon, the Steel Spur sawmill, the
Hilgard planer and the available
timber near these mills.
They have a grocery store, paint
store, jewelry, loan agent, real es
tate men, lawyers, and other busi
ness men in La Grande, besides a
thriving community at Alicel and
Union. They are industrious,
frugal folks and cultivate their
farms to the highest degree.
A Might of Terror.
"Awful anxiety was felt for the wid
ow of the brave General Burnhani of
Machias, Me., when the doctors ssid
she would die from Pneu mooia before
niorning"wiit Mrs. ft. H. Lincoln,
who attended her that fearful night,
but she begged for Dr. King's New
Discovery, which hsd cured her of
Consumption, After taking, she slept
sll night. Further use entirely cured
her". This marvellous medicine is
guaranteed to cure all Throat, Chest
and Lung Diseases. Only 60c and
$1.00. Trial bottle free at Adamson
AVYinnek Co's. drugstore.
Mrs. A. G. Trahan camo over
from the Matoles Saturday and re'
ports a lot of timber buyers in that
section of the county, and that
there was some timber changing
hands at 110 per acre. While this
may be a little high for some of the
timber in this county, it will have
the tendency to cause a demand for
stiff prices among tho holders of
timber There is no doubt that our
timber is worth all that can be got
for it, and the time is not far distant
when we will have the only con
siderable area of pine timber in the
world.
