Mr. Coulil lias vinilcj the cin iiahnr Iiiiui H at lookout mountaiii anil docf not lieilato in raying lhat the ()eviloniH'iit work sA far has ilifclowd some ' womlerful valuee in ore. "I do not think," lie iaid the other day "lhat Ihe ili'osit of ein naliar Ihik na yet been reached. The veins which have lieen oned are warcely more than stringent and the true ledge in Btill to be jiiHt returned from that iJitri(.t, but will k" tbere again to make a more thorough search for mineral propped?. Mr. Gubl has been very favor ably imprewed with tlic ditricj lying kouiii oi i.diikiiiii mountain and al the Hear ereek country where be pay good indications are to be found, lie etnliil that it in highly probable lhat other cinna bar J(-KHtM will be found in that portion of the county. Mr. (Iould lias been in the Cali fornia cinnabar fields for a number of years and is thoroughly familiar with the peculiarities of of quicksilver mines. He basm his high opinion of Crook cunly's field on the indications similar here to those in bis stale where cinnabar mines are being worked suceesf-fully and to no small degree of profit. KKCOKD CltOl' IX MORROW Wheat Yield It In Estimated Will lie Close to the Two Million Hushd Mark. Based on reports from a.11 sections of the county the wheat crop of Morrow county this year will be something like 2,000,000 truck. From my observations on j bnsbeU, the bumper crop of the RANGE TROUBLE . HAS STARTED Mill Creek Stockman is the First Loser This Week in Sheep Slaughter. the mountain the ledge, it will be found, continues down the slope and the claims below the Tillolson Cratn tunnel will in all probability be as valuable as those where the development work has uncovered the ore. "Cinnabar i never found in a r-ingle deposit and where one ledge is ojK'ned there are others in the vicinity. I feel satisfied that this vein on Lookout mountain extends as far in a north-easterly direction us Kounil mountain and that the ledge will be found later on in that part of the district. I have only one objection to offer in the matter and that is that someone else lias found this deposit," Unless recalled by his company, Mr. (Iould will spend several weeks in the south eastern part of the county wberejiewill look over the surface indications. He has county. Farmers in general say the stand is good, although the cool nights the past fortnight has been favorable for cutworms, yet no material damage to the grain has been reported from this source, says the Ileppner Times. The wheat is heading in many localities and the worms can do little damage. Hay harvest is now in progress in some' localities and will soon be out of reach of the grasshopjiers, which is reported lie becoming quite numerous. No fear is anticipated as to the, grain (Top on account of tho hoppers The first depredation as a re sult of the contlicting territories occupied by the cattlemen and sheep ownprs in this county oc curred last Monday when 65 sheep belonging to Allie Jones were shot and killed on Mill creek by ;nask- ed men who threatened a greater slaughter if the band was net re moved from that locality. The killing happened on the west side of Mill creek, the herd of sheep being in charge of Tom Paine who was surprised and un able to offer any resistance when the attack occured. This first outbreak against the sheep marks the first step in the range difficulties which are likely to lie encountered during the com ing season. The scene of the kill ing is in the district in which an I effort was made a short lime ago to establish lines. The territory was visited by a party of sheep owners from Anteloi and it wag believed that matters could be satisfactorily adjusted between them and the cattlemen in that part of the county. But nothing definite was decided upon and it is expected that the old lines will hold good this year.

The frost which last week change the hue of many of the and little to the hay crop as that nrdens in this vicinity wa not will soon be out of their way.

It was learned from an nffieinl of the Sumpter Valley that it is ineir intention to thoroughly cover this field. Work will be started at once and carried forward until the objective district in the John Day alley has been reached. Risht of way is being secured from proper ty owners along the way, and but little objection is being encoun tered. OREGON PIONEERS TO MEET Official Vote of Crook County, June 6, 1904.

A dis patch to The Portland Journal from Oregon City says: Heavy frosts were reported by farmers yesterday morning in various sections of the county. but it could not be learned what damage, if any, that it did to the fruit and crops. North of Orecon City the reports say that it froze water, and in all sections around Oregon City it was reported cold' enough to freeze. The fruit probably will not surfer much, as it is well along, but the small vegetables may be hurt enough to partly spoil the crop. Thirty-second Annual Re-union of the State's F'irst Settlers Will Be Held in Portland. George H. Himes, secretary f of the Oregon Pioneer association, is busy making plans and arrange ments for the thirty-second annual reunion of that organization, to be held in Portland on ffednesdav, June 22. Mr. Himes said this morning that he expected at least 800, perhaps 1000, pioneers of the Oregon country to be present, says the Portland Journal. During the past few weeks Mr. Himes has received scores of let ters, written by the trembling hands of old men and women who crossed the scorching plains half a :entury ago, in order to build homes in tho 'land of the Oregon, stating that they would be present at this reunion of their association. Many of these letters were from pioneers who now reside in Wash ington, hut who are still proud of the fact that they helped to build up the great commonwealth of Oregon. Several others wrote from California, stating they would also attend this reunion. Mr. Himes ib of the opinion that this reunion will be the most successful in the history of the association. On the day of the reunion a grand procession will take place, forming at 2 o'clock at tho Hotel Portland, and marching direct to the armory where literary exercises will beheld. Joseph Buchtel will lie the grand marshal of the par ade. The annual address will be given by Charles B. Moorex, a pioneer of 18.10, and five five minute experience talks will lie given by well known pioneers. At the close of the program tl.e the Pioneer Woman's auxiliary will give a banquet to all the members of the association in good standing. Special invitations will lie issued to the husbands or wives of pioneers, who may not be pio neers themselves. No children will be admitted to the banquet.
