Fine Progress at Dixie Meadows
R. C. Reese, anperintendont at
tho Dixie Meadows waa down from
the mine the early part of the
week looking for men to go to
work as he was anxious to put on
a double shift.
The work of sinking is proceed
ing rapidly making four feet a day.
The compressor and drills work
without a hitch. Thirty minutes
is only required to sink a five foot
hola and at this rate it will be but
a short time when the mine will
be opened up as well as any min
ing property in Kaatem Oregon.
The shaft is being sunk on the
hanging wall of the ledge con
taining about 40 feet of ledge
matter. The first nine feet from
the wall will run with values
averaging $20. A streak of ore
aeragin3 if 150 clings to the hang
ing wall. At this writing they
have sunk but 20 feet, having
jtiht started, and if there is any
change it is for the better. The
shaft will be sunk MX) feet with
intermediates.
The Dixie Meadows will, before
thin year ends, be recognized as
one of the best mines in eastern
Oregon. The Miner speaks ad
visedly on this point. And the
statement is not taken from the
report of an expert hireling, but
from 40 or 50 disinterested miners
who with peculiar unanimity pro-
jnounee this property one of the
best mines in the state.
The management expect to put
to work a large force of miners
before fall. By that time the
shaft will he sunk 300 feet with
50 feet levels and their extensive
milling oteration will be started.
The Huntington mill which is now
installed at the mine will be re
placed with '20 stamps. I'rairie

PRINEVILLE
, SENDS $1100
To Be Used for Califor
nia Sufferers
RESPOND LIBERALLY
At a Called Meeting Saturday Eve
ning the Money was raised
In Short Time
A number of the business men
gathered at the Club building
Saturday evening in answer to a
call by the President of tne Busi
nessniens' League to discuss what
purt Prineville would take in re
lieving the distress of our suffer
ing California neighbors. The
true spirit was manifest, the meet
ing being uuaminus and eager to
contribute to the cause.
T. M. Baldwin presided and
3tated brietiy the object of the
gathering. Mayor Win. Wurz
weiler at once rose and spoke
earnestly as to the duty, as well as
privilege of giving to so worthy
and urgent a cause and in behalf
of the firm of Wurzweiler A
Thomson gave 1250. U.K. Brink
voiced his sentiments and said the
city could not do a more com
mendable' deed than get to work at
once and do our part, and Sug
gested that a committee of three
be appointed by the president to
solicit funds. The president
appointed C. I. Winnek, M. R.
Elliott and I). V. Stewart as a
cotnmitte and a paper was drawn
up and inside of 15 minutes $627
was subscribed. The meeting was
then acjourned and the soliciting
committe finished their work Sun
day morning, adding the total of
the amount subscribed to $1100.
The money raised was sent
direct to the governor of California
to be used for the California suf
ferers in the way that he thought
best.
The Carnation Chapter of the 0.
K. S. appropriated $150 for the
cause to be expended by the
Masonic lodge of California in the
relief work being done by that
lodge.
The prompt and substantial
manner in which the business men
and citizens of Prineville re
sponded to the call of aid to their
sister state is commendable and
that they done so in a generous
spirit is shown by the amount
raised in the short space of time.
RAILROAD UP
THE DESCHUTES
Trunk Line Is Surveying for a Line
to Be in the Near Future
Central Oregon is going to he
tapped by a railroad at once, and
that road is coming up the Des
chutes river from the Columbia.
This is the important information
brought on Monday by K. C. Gor
don, engineer for the Oregon Trunk
line, which is the name under
which tlie line will he hunt into
central Oregon. Mr. Gordon is
here now buying right-of-way for
the railway, and actual construe-
lion worn win oe negun not later
than Mav 10.
lne Oregon 1 runk line is
prompted by V. F. Nelson of
Seattle, who built the Dufttr road
last year, and who was behind the
survey made up the Deschutes
river last winter. Mr. NYlhon has
financed his railroad project ur
Deschutes, and there is no doubt
that work will be started at nnn
Mr. Jordan is emphatic in his
statements that this road will be
built, and says that Mr. Nelson
has alreadv given orders for the
removal of his construction out
lits to the mouth of the Deschutes,
under instruction to legin work
by the 5th of May. He thinks,
however, that it may be a week
later before work begins.
At present Mr. Gordon is secur
ing the right-of-way for the line.
The tirst eighteen miles of right
oi-way along me Ucschutea was
secured some weeks ago and the
deeds have already been riled for
Mr. Gordon: secured deeds for
right-of-way through a number of
places lying on Vil!w creek
gorge between this place and the
Deschutes river, on Monday.
Among those from whom he
bought right-of-way are W. J.
Cowherd and J. E. t'amplell and
he has closed with most of the
owners on the line along the Des
chutes for right-of-way through
their lands.
Mr. Gordon says that the Oregon
Trunk line will be built up the
Deschutes river, coming up Willow
creek gorge to tan the immense
wheat belt of this section, and that
from this point the road will
later be extended southward.
Madras is the present objective
point. It is not known with
what railroad the Oregon Trunk
line is affiliated, although it is
assumed that Mr. Nelson is build
ing the line independently of
either the Harriman or the Hill
roads. Information on this point
has not been given out, although it
has been hinted that at the mouth
of the Deschutes is one of the best
crossings on the Columbia river,
affording easy connection with
the Hill line on the north bank.
It is not believed, however, that.
the Harriman interests would per
mit the Deschutes route to fall
into the hands of Hill, thus
virtually relinquishing to those
interests the immensely important
central Oregon country, as well as
a Hording them an easy entrance
into the Harriman territory in
the south. Dalles Chronicle.
Will Furnish Settlers Water
In the issue of The Journal of
April 19, was an article relative to
the Columbia Southern Irrigation
Company having trouble. The
article stated that the company
bad refused to comply with the
demand of the State Land Board
to furnish 1.8 feet of water during
the irrigation season. This, so C.
S. Smith, Superintendent of the
company says is a tnistade, and
that he has been ordered by the
company to proceed to put in the
headgates and measuring boxes to
supply the settlers under the
ditch with that amount of water
as demanded by the land board.
Will Abandon Malheur Project
A dispatch from Washington
states that fuller advices by the
secretary of the interior make it
impracticable to proceed with the
Malheur project. The complica
tions over individual holdings and
railroad rights ot way preventing.
The lands withdrawn will le re
stored to public entry under Cary
and other acts. Senator Heyburn
announced in the senate that it
was a physical impossibility to
bold federal courts called to meet
in San Francisco for the May term,
consequently he will introduce a
resolution permitting courts to
unci in Portland instead.
File Incorporation Papers
The Oreg .a" '"Trunk Lite Hail
road Company has been organized
at Carson City, Nev., by W. F.
Nelson, K. A. Balliuger and L. I.
Gregory, capitalized at $1,000,000.
The incorporation articles provide
for the building of a line 250
miles into Central Oregon, having
its terminus at the continence of
the Deschutes Kiver.
William J. Wilsey, John M.
Kddy and William M. Gregory,
tiled articles of incorporation with
the Secretary of State for the Ore
gon .(.'oast and Kastern Kail way
Company. The proposed road is
to start at Portland, thence to
Tillamook to Nehalem, and from
Coos Bay in Oregon to HumUddl
Bay in California, and from Sius
law Bay easterly via the Siuslaw
and Willamette Valleys to such
point in the south half of Malheur
county, on the eastern or southern
boundary of the state, as may be
convenient. The capital stock is
$10,000,000. The principal place
of bitbiness is Portland.
