Abraham P. Dawson was (ound
dead on bis ranch at Lamonta
Tuesday, When the bodj waa dia-
co re red by a neighbor life bad been
eit.net (or some thirty -six or forty
eight hours. A messenger was at
once rent to notify the proper
county officials at Prineville. Sher
iff Elkins, Judge Belt and Dr.
Roaenberg left that afternoon (or
Lamonta.
The body was (ound lying (ace
downward about 300 (eet east of
his house on a road .leading to
some baystacka and well.
A coroner's inqueet waa beld and
after making a careful examina
tion of the circumstance surround
ing the death it was decided that
Dawson came to his death from a
stroke of apoplexy. Death came
swiftly. He fell forward on his
face and breast and died without a
struggle. ;
Dawson was about 60 years of
age and waa unmarried. He was
a most eccentric person and was
generally avoided by bis neigh
bors. He waa indicted at tbe last
term of tbe district court for as
sault with a dangerous
weapon '
upon the person of A. Ad Keller.
The esse waa continued ao that he
might have time to get his wit
nesses. Dawson lived in Crook county
for twenty years, lie has a brother
and nephew in Missouri and an ef
fort will be made to find them.
A Drive Across Crook Cowry.
John Briedwell, Joha -Breeding,
Alex McKinnon and Cheater Bried
well returned the first of the week
from their over the mountains trip
by wagon into Crook county,
where they attended the Prineville
fair and shook hands with their
old friend Fred Stimaon. They
saw many things in rare contrast
to the surroundings in the Wil
lamette valley on the way and
paid their respects to the Three
Sisters and who can blame them
they are very beautiful. After
leaving the little town of Sisters,
Mount Jefferson comes in view and
the road they traveled gives an op
portunity for a splendid view of
the most beautiful mountains in
Oregon. They drove through the
junipers and sagebrush with vol
canic aah for a road bed, a soil
that will produce astonishing crops
when water is applied and will
grow rye higher than a man's head
without irrigation. They crossed
the beautiful Deschutes river, with
Gatewood Mining & Trading Company
OF HOWARD, CROOK COUNTY, OREGON
Capitalization 500,000 Shares,
Treasury Stock 100,000, Par Value Non Assessable.
This is the first opportunity the people of Crook
county have had to invest in one of their own mineral
resources. Hitherto development work on this
property has been conducted with private capital.
Now the time has come to double the output, and in
order to do so the management has decided to issue
10,000 Shares of Treasury Stock at $1.00 per Share
for the purpose of increasing the capacity of the mine.
This is probably all the stock that will be issued and
it behoove those who desire to invest in this stock to
place their orders at once.
At present five stamps are running and it is
desired to double this output in order to accomplish
greater results.

ita swift running cold, clear waters
from the eternal snows of tbe Caa
cadea and took dinner a little
farther on at the Tetherow
brothers' place, a very pretty little
nook alongside tbe Deschutes, three
miles north of Cline Fads, where
peaches and pears are to be found
every eeaeon. After leaving the
Tetherow place they passed through
the little town of O'Neil, another
very pretty spot and from there
traveled twelve miles up the Crook
ed river valley, with interesting
scenery on all aidea, to Prineville.
Arriving a Prineville they found
the citizens busily engaged with
their annual fair, which they at
tended and saw a variety of things
which interested them. They re
turned home by way of Madraa,
another thriving town in Crook
county, and from there to Tbe
Dalles, where they took a boat to
Portland and drove from the lat
ter place home. John Briedwell
says he saw many interesting ob
jects and ia aiuch pleased with bis
trip. No one can truthfully say
they have seen Oregon until they
have made this trip. When the
C. &. E. R. R. extends its line into
that country, which it will in tbe
near future, many valley people
will visit that region every year.

In tbe matter of a change In tbe
