The following petition ia being
numerously aigntd in Pineville
and vicinity. It reada:
Whereaa, a filing lor water
power haa been made by the U. 8.
Reclamation Service on the Dea
chuteH River, and haa caused the
grant of the right-of-way inline
Canyon along thai river, applied
for by the Oregon Trunk Line
Railroad Co., to be refused by the
Department of the Interior, and
whereaa, nuch action on the part
of the Reclamation Bervice and
the Department of the Interior ia
directly againnt the intereota of
the general public and will otop
the development already begun in
Crook county in particular and
Central Oregon in general, and
wriouBly injure the lumber inter
ests and irrigation projects now
under way and largely completed,
and will prevent further invest
ment of outHide capital and further
nettlcment of the county and per-
petuate the prent hardships of
the inhabitants;
Now Therefore, your petitioners.
residents of Oregon and Crook
county, the undersigned, respect
fully petition the Department of
the Interior that the right-of-way
applied for by the Oregon Trunk
Line Railroad Co. be granted, and
permit a railroad to be built along
the Deschutes River as projected
by said company, and the filing
heretofore made by the U. S. Rec
lamation Bervice be withdrawn
to the end that transportation
facilities be afforded to the people
and traflic of a territory larger
than the State of Massachusetts,
and with boundless possibilities in
agriculture, manufactures and
commerce.
Your petitioners further repre
sent that the route of the Oregon
Trunk Line is the most feasible
and logical for serving this section,
by reason of location, grade and
accessibility to transcontinental
lines and is the only line upon
which actual contruction work has
been begun.
Wherefore they pray that such
right-of-way be granted and that
all interference therewith cease
device, the inventor has received
numerous offers for it. lie is now
planning to have the invention
manufactured in Portland. Mr
O'Connor is connected with a large
land promoting company in Crook
county, which is engaged in ex
tensive irrigation projects. He is

Portland Boy Inventor.
Victor J. O'Connor, a Portland
boy, who has been located at Red
mond, Crook County Or., during
the past three years, has perfected
an invention for centering head
ings on statements written on the
typewriter. The new instrument
is designed to save the stenographer
much time and annoyance in ar
ranging the spaces on the machine
in order to place the heading in
the exact center of the paper
The invention of Mr. O'Connor is
similar t a drawing compass and
has attachments which render the
spacing easy of arrangement.
Since securing his patent on the
Lumber is still being hauled
from the liirdsong & Am mond
sawmill. Lumber is in great de
mand this season.
If we judge from the frequent
trip made to Prineville of late by
the Maury Mountain forest ranger
there will be a lady ranger on that
mountain ere long. There is need
of another ranger near the head of
Maury creek.
Bye Bennett haa purchased one
hundred head of two-year-old
steers from L. V. Bailey. He paid
$24.50 a head. Cattle are advanc
ing in price right along.
Jack Summers has promised to
have this part of the country con
nected with the outside world be
fore very long. He needs about
1000 poles to complete the line
under construction along the
Crooked river wagon road between
Prineville and Buck creek. The
settlers hail the coming of the
'phone with joy for it has long
been needed.
Stockmen are getting their herds
near to the feed yards. Old-timers
are looking for one of the so-called
"equalizers" that used to visit
these parts occasionally. The
"Observatory" has failed to notice
any symptoms of such a winter.
There are a few things, however,
it has noticed, and one of them is
that at the commencement of each
winter the inhabitants hereabout
look lor and expect a very severe
winter, for, as they say, we haven't
had one for some time. It is our
belief that if the people here would
at the beginning of the year 1907
anticipate a severe winter in 1908
and prepare for it there would be
a whole lot of anxiety spared them.
Very respectfully,

Capitalization 500,000 Shares.
Treasury Stock 100,000, Par Value Non Assessable.
Subscription Price $1.00 per Share.
Paying from the grass roots down.
The property consists of 33 claims in the South
eastern part of Crook county, on the head waters of
the Ochoco river. There is an abundance of water
for power purposes and some of the best timber in the
county is located on these claims. The economic con
ditions for mining could not be better.
The mines are now on a paying basis, but with
additional machinery they can be made a big dividend
payer as the output can be doubled with very little
additional cost of labor. In order to install this ma
chinery the management has decided to issue 10,000
shares of Treasury Stock. This stock will in all
probabilities be the last offered for sale. It will be
sold at $1.00 per share. There is no deviating from
this price. That the stock will increase in value is a
certainty. You can find no better place to invest
your money. If you desire to get in on this you will
have to do so at once, as this stock was put on the
Inarket in order to give the residents of the county a
chanco to realize something from an investment in
one of their own properties.
This is not a speculation at all but a sound business
investment based upon ascertained facts. The mine
has been developed beyond the experimental stage.
About the best recommendation we can give these
mines is that the men employed by the company are
investing their savings in the purchase of this stock.
Also such men as Clark, Daly, Fair, Haggin, and a
host of others have made their money from mines and
the development of them.
