MINEMAY OPEN SOON i

Activity Expected Before Long In !
Ashwood Properties
The Madras Pioneer says: It is
rumored here that the Oregon
King mine near
Ashwood will bo
opened up agairt within the next
few weeks. The
King was shut j
down about a
vear ago, since j
which time it has been Hooded i
with water. Several months ago
it was pumped out in order that
an inspection . might be made bv
experts for the Geiser-llendrix
people of Paker County, and it
was reported the mine was about
to bo sold. '-After the workings
were inspected, however, the mine
was allowed to fill again, and the
salo was reported to be off. . Ke-
ently the arrival of several former
employes of tho company at Ash
wood has revived the story of a
sale of the mine, and it is now
stated that the mine will be
operated in a short time. "'
The King mine is the best known
mining property in Crook county,
and it is said to. be one of tie
biggest mining properties in tho
state. It has been developed for a
depth of bOO foet, with drifts at
each level, but owing to trouble
some litigation the mine has never
been operated steadily, the man-

'Other settlers in that neigh-
mean great things to them. Wal
ter would make that one of the
finest stock raising and farming
sections in the state. There is a
new country being settled this fall
about 'Jo miles northeast of Silver
Lake. Late experiments in that
locality have shown that plenty of
water can be found at a depth of
only 10 or 12 feet below the sur
face. With this as the condition
it is believed that the country will
produce alfalfa and settlers are
Hocking in there from every point
of the compass to try their hand
at farming." . '
