Nearly fifty years ago a flood of
gold aerkers from the newly-dlacov
ered fields In California, overflowed
Into Oregon. They plunged through
a wtlderneas unknown except to aav
ages, or trappers from the Hudson
flay company. When they climbed
the Kill horn range. Tne bewildering
vision of the Powder river country lay
beneath them. Surely thla was a land
cf gold, as well as of goldi-a sunlight,
elae why were the protecting arms of
the mountains thrown around It on
e.rery side, save where the entrance
was barred by a roaring gorge? Waa
It oaly, an image of tho promlv-d land
evolved from the dclirlnm , of their
quest? Men have gone to hell In
desert heat and arctic Ire for gold,
but here an earthly paradise smiled
a. welcome. Tet the aeemlng nlrage
romatited and even to theae rouch ad
venturers. It proved the realization
of a dream ithelr dream of the yellow
metal. .
Gold! Some strange wlreleaa sys
tem has always existed to call the
dare-devils of the race from the ends
of the earth with that magic cry.
Soon a fearless horde came strugglln
through the trackless wllda Into thl
virginal garden. From Mormon Iiaain
to Medical Springs and from Alamo to
Timber Canyon, they pillaged the
water ways for ' treasure. Not
at ream, draw, or depression, In all thl
vast mountain hemmed domain eonld
be fonnd where gold was absent. Hut
these advance aklrmlahers lingered
only along the rich channels where

piled in 1900, by Waldemar IJndgren,
and Issued by trie government, enti
tled, "The Gold Bolt of the Blue Moun
tains In Oregon"; In which, up to that
time, the record output of precious
metals, from this slate, Is given as
$109,000,000, principally gold. I have
due reverence for authority, but, alas
for the unnumbered millions that left
here In the early placer days by way
of buckskin belts and saddle bags and
of which there can be no record, un
less one might trace gold by the blood
and tears that so often attach to It
on a nival at civilized centers and at
tend It through various avenues of
crime and dissipation, until It reachea
it a final home In the safe and respec
