LARGE DELEGATION SENT governor Chamberlain. AVlio Is the Prei(lciit of. tlic Congress, lis- '. cusses Its Importance to Ore gon Topics Ojiisldercd. Deep interest is taken by Oregonians In the loth annual meeting of the National ' irrigation congress which convenes at Sacramento, Cal., tomorrow afternoon. J-'oremost among the subjects that will be discussed at this convention are the forest reserve policy, the reclamation service " and the railroad land grants. In every one of these matters Oregon Is more vitally interested than is any other statis - In the Union. This state possesses an extensive area of the richest forests in the world, is reclaiming thousands of ? acres of arid land and is seeking to en- force the terms of several large railroad . land grants. For these reasons between BO and 75 of the delegates named from this state by Governor Chamberlain or the different commercial bodies will at tend the Sacramento congress. ' Governor Chamberlain, who is president of the National Irrigation congress, ac ! l ompanied by a number of other delegates V. from this state, left lust night for Sacra- mento. They were joined by other dele : gates at Salem and Southern Oregon ". points and will reach the convention city in time for the opening session of the ; congress Monday afternoon. Subject of Interest to Oregon. "Among the subjects of vital interest to 1 Oregon that will undoubtedly be dis .' cussed at the Sacramento meeting are - the framing of a uniform water law, the , forest reserve policy and, perhaps, rail ' road land grants." said Governor Chain ! berlain, yesterday. "What is seriously needed In this state is a uniform water Jaw that will define rights to the use of water In streams and determine the use of water so appropriated. List year a ; committee of disinterested citizens, ap ' pointed from the commercial bodies of " the state and from the Government's rec :. lamation service, was organized and . drafted a measure covering this subject that was intended to best serve the in- terests of the state but- It was defeated . In the Legislature. f "Such a measure should also regulate -' the use of water from streams that serve as the boundary between two states, as, for instatr;e, Mie Snake River. "The forestry service is closely as sociated with the reclamation projects and will be one of the main subjects for consideration. In many of the timber lands of the state the question of water riphtrf- ? involved and some legislation " Is needed ior regulating the use of the same. "Some action will be tnkeu regarding til railroad land grants and resolutions will probably be introduced directing that the terms of these grants be enforced. In . this subject the delegates from Oregon are particularly Interested, for there Is a li.rger acreage of these lands in this state than in any other state. Carey Act Needs Amending. "Siive many of the representatives of the Federal and state governments will ' be at the Sacramento convention, it is ' very probable that the Carey act will be recommended for a slight amendment or a general rule will be adopted by the dif ferent states to follow in the placing of water on tracts included in reclamation projects. As It is now framed the Carey act requires that water must be placed on each subdivision of land included in a reclamation project before the state can Issue patent to such lands. This condi tion must be complied with before the . Government will ratify the work, t "If this requirement should be strictly enforced it would result in almost bank rupting the average irrigation company which would be made, to convey water onto each 40-acre' tract Included in the contest, whether or not all of these subdivisions had been sold. In other words, the water conveyed to each sub division that had not been sold to some settler would go to waste. ', "The rule that has been adopted is to bring the water in substantial ditches to a reasonable distance from each sub division without constructing the lateral Bnd discharging the water on unsold tracts. In this way no water is wasted. ' As each tract is sold, a lateral can be constructed from the main ditch and the land supplied with the necessary water when It Is needed and not before. "Whllo this plan has been followed generally in connection with irrigation projects, a strict Interpretation of the Carey act does not permit It and some steps will undoubtedly be taken looking to j - uniformity of action In treating with this phase of the Irrigation question." ; Many of the delegates from Oregon to the Sacramento convention will stop at Grant's Pass on their way home and at I tend the sessions of the Oregon Irrigation congress, September 10 to 12. At this ! meeting many Important subjects bearing : more directly on the. subject of irrlga i tion in this state will be considered. REGATTA OPEN TOMORROW City of Astoria in Gala Attire for Three Days' Festivities. ASTORIA, Or.. Aug. 31. (Speciar.) Astoria is In holiday attire today and thousands of visitors have already arrived In anticipation of the three days of gen uine sports and entertainments that will make up the programme of the Thir teenth Annual Regatta and County Fair that will open on Monday morning. The opening ceremonies this year will be unique in that they will Include a visit by a Viking fleet bearing a Viking King and old-time warriors clad in the cos tumes of 1000 years ago. The landing of the fleet will take plne at 9 o'clock on Monday morning in front of the grand stand. The Queen, Mis Harriet Tallant, as she approaches, will be welcomed with a song by the members of the Norwegian Saengerfest. and she will be escorted by the Viking warriors to the throne, where she will be crowned with imposing cere monies. After addresses by Mayor Wise and J. H. White, orator of the day, the water sports will be opened with the shell and other rowing races. At 1:30 in the after noon the land parade will take place, this being followed by sailing races on the water, various amusing contests in front of the grand stand and numerous races on land. The illuminated marine parade, which will be participated in by practi cally all the craft on the lower river, will take place on the evening of the let. The two succeeding days' programme will comprise rowing races In the morn ings witli the sailing contests during the afternoons, and dances, receptions and other entertainments during the evenings. HIS HOPES ARE BLASTED Jim Hill, Slave to Hum, Makes HU Plea in Vain. James Hill, by order of the Municipal Court, will again spend 90 days at the famous temperance health resort on Kel ly's Butte. Hill is one of the most faith ful patrons of the Hotel Cameron and any shock the venerable whisky 'toper could give the court officials would be in the way of willfully absenting himself from Its halls. Friday morning James appeared again before the Judge and put up the same old plea, thinking that there might be leni ency granted by Act ing Judge Strode, who was a stranger to Hall. 1 "Has he been here before?" asked the court of Clerk Hen nessy. ' "Has he!" ex claimed Hennessy, "comes every other day has been given every fine and sen tence In the catalogue for boozologists. He's N. G." This was a crushing blow to the tear stained plea James had given the court. "Truth," shouted James, "tell the truth, there's nothing like the truth." "That's right." agreed the court, "your sentence will be 90 days." "Ninety days." mumbled James, as Bailiff Circle led him away, "90 days' work for the county for nothin' must b a hungry county." To church first and to the alehpuse afterward was the schedule of events in a stormy day in the matrimonial affairs of one F. Larrler, lately of the reformed. Carrier had for two years scorned all the advances of Mr. Bottlerum to renew an old friendship and except for a tendency to live as the butterflies, had made a record worth having. But last Friday the calm that had been rest ing over the Larrier home lifted and the storm broke, so that by midnight the family circle was destroyed and the head of the house hold behind the bars. Larrler put the blame on his faithful spouse. "I had had nothing to eat from morn ing until night," said he to the Judge, "and naturally I was in a bad frame of mind." "Were you drunk?" asked the court. "I should say not," replied Larrier. "Why, your honor, I went to church tht night, nobody would go with me so X had to go alone and I took part In the meeting and made a prayer." "Must have had a bad effect on you," said the court. "My wife has been cranky ever since she's been sick and that's what makes her act as she does," said the accused. "I am inclined to think she Is better off without you." said the court. "Your threats to use violence are serious." "He needs exercise." put 1n Hennessy. "That's it." interrupted Mrs. iJirrier. "Work it out of him, he won't work .t home." "From the testimony in the case there is no doubt in the mind of the court that you are guilty of the charges. Along with the little gift of 30 days' stay -at the rorkpile resort the court would like to advise you to reverse the order of your visits to the church and the ale house, if you must go to the alehouse at all, go there first." DETROIT SALOON WRECKED Work Believed to Be Revenge of Greek Laborers. ALBANY, Or., Aug. 31. (Special.) The saloon of John Daley, at Detroit, eastern terminus of the Corvallis & Eastern Railroad, was blown up by dynamite at 1 o'clock this morning. The building was literally blown to atoms. Daley was accustomed to sleep in the building, and for a time it was feared that his life had been lost, but it was later learned that he had gone to Mill City on business yesterday. The explosion which wrecked the building was a terrific one, and jarred all of the buildings in Detroit. The saloon was a email frame building and stood over a small gulch, supported on stilts, and it was completely wrecked. Though there Is no direct clew to the perpretrators of the crime, resi dents of Detroit ascribe it to a gang of Greeks employed on the Corvallis & Kastern Railroad. They are known to have had an alleged grievance against Daley. The trouble between them arose a few . nights ago when the Greeks were drinking and carousing In Daley's saloon. Word came to the saloon that the bunkhouse of the Greeks was on fire and Daley Is said to have persuaded the men, who were Intoxicated, to. stay in the saloon, tell ing them the report was only a "Josh."' The bunkhouse did actually burn down and when the Greeks went home and found all of their clothing and supplies burned up they were very angry and are reported to have made threats against Daley. These threats may have been co incident to the crime, however, for there is nothing of a direct nature to connect the Greeks with the explosion. It is certain that no anti-saloon sen timent was responsible for the crime, though, for there has been -no feeling of any kind in Detroit over the liquor question. Because of the fact that ialey was in the habit of sleeping in the saloon it is thought an attempt may have been made against his life. . EASTERN EXCURSIONS.

DISPLAYS ARE ATTRACTIVE Many Amusing Features Planned, and Preparations Made to Enter tain Large Crowds Baby Show Every Day Baking ' Prizes. Perhaps the busiest place in the city yesterday was the old Exposition building on Washington street, where an army cf booth builders and decorat ors is at work installing -exhibits for the pure food show given by the Grocers' Association, which opens to morrow night. Manager J. W. Dean is directing the work and such good progress has been made during the past few days that when the doors open for the show the display of tempting edibles will be complete. The old skating rink has been com pletely transformed so that it now presents an I attractive appearance. Many colored pennants and other deco rations line the sides of the big room, while the floor space is covered "with attractive booths, vieing with each other in the artistic display of food products. Manufacturers of the staple foods that Americans rely on most for nourishment have entered- liberally Into the show and have prepared fine displays. An interesting sight during the decorating period was Mrs. Randall, an expert woman decorator, who directed this work and assisted in person, driving nails with as much skill as the most experienced car penter. Tomorrow night will be grocers' night and retail stores will be closed about town to permit of the attendance of the provision purveyors. Mayor Ijine will deliver an address opening the show at 8:33. The show will con tinue for two weeks and there will be special attractions every day it is In progress. Pretty babies will have their innings daily, for there will be a baby show every afternoon and cash prizes will be given to the handsomest infants ex hibited. A special booth has been re served for the babies. During the progress of the affair Chinese and col ored babies will have an opportunity to compete for prizes. The Home Telephone Company will have a private telephone exchange at the show with a central switclrboard and telephones connecting each booth. The Rounds readies' Orchestra, which will arrive late this week. Is one of the features of the show. The or ganization includes a number of splen did musicians, among them being Miss Gussle Lenshaw, a baritone. C. W. Dean, son of Manager Dean, will have chage of the soft drinks booth.

These facts are mentioned merely to acquaint the reader with the close proximity of the mines to this city, and so it may be understood that we are not advertising something; in some remote corner of the earth or distant from civilization. Our Gold Mines Are Producing Now w purchased the property and organized our company in 1S86. Our capital stock Is only 500,300, divided into 5(10.000 shares of the par value of $1 each, and are fully paid-up and non-assessable. We have no preferred stock and no bonds. Our mines, opened and producing before we bought them, consist of the McKlnley Quarts Mine. Mountain Lily Quartz Mine, Hannah Quartz Mine, Teddy Quartz Mine. Le Clair Quartz Mine, New Dlscoverv Placer Mine, Champion Quartz Mine, Portwlcket Quartz Mine. Electric Light Quartz Mine. Crown Point Quartz Mine, Trinity Placer Mine, and Falrchlld Placer Mine, together with all water rights and a large amount of per sona! property In the shape of mining tools and equipments. The property Is located in Siskiyou County, California, about six miles In a direct line west of Yrtka, Cali fornia, the county seat, on one of the tributaries of the Klamath River, and situated in the Klamath River Forest Reservation. From the creek bottoms,, tributaries of the Klamath River, over $100,000,030.00 In gold has been taken. Nearby are the Mono Mine (which has JUST BEEN SOL.D FOR S18.1. 000.00). the Spencer Mine, which has been one. of the richest producers in California, the Granite, the Boyle, the Spangler, the Hegler, the Uncle Sam and several others. . A Sworn Statement of Assays Mr. A. L. Hayes, under whoso personal supervision numerous assays of ores of the Champion Group hav been made, testifies under oath, affidavit to be seen at this office, that mill tests of the quartz of these mines have yielded In gold as follows: 1100 to the ton. J1593.32. S140, J860. $90. $198. $788. $2480, etc. In securing these results a large quantity of ore wns used, and NOT mere samples, as would be the case when a small specimen of rock is taken to the assayers. Mill tests mean that the general average of the mine will be what is shown in the test, as nearly as It is ever possible to determine. The main vein of the McKlnley group outcrops across the Mountain Lily, McKinley and Teddy claims. The vein is cut by a cross-cut tunnel 28 feet and drift 300 feet. The drift shows a rich ore shoot 185 feet wide. Assay made from an average sample taken from the bottom of the drift, for 175 feet, show free milling; gold $30.00 to the ton, and an assay on rock taken from winzes sunk from this drift show values of $25.41, $30.20, $65.00, $120.0) and $135.00 to the ton, all being free milling. From the drift a shaft 120 feet has been sunk on the vein, and a drift 15.1 feet long has been run from the shaft. On the Hannah and Le Clair claims the vein is undeveloped. The New Discovery Placer Mine has very rich gravel. On the Champion Group the drift from Tnnnel 3 will be run at least 1000 feet, to cut the rich shoot shown in Tunnel 2, and also to cut a number of ore shoots shown on the surface. This drift will sive 200 feet backs for 800 feet and 130 feet for 200 feet. A tunnel will also be run on the Portwlcket and another one on the Crown Point, to cut the vein on these claims. On the McKinley Group a cross-cut tunnel 1000 feet long will be run. This will cut, first.' the vein crossing the Hannah and Le Clair claims, next the vein now opened on the McKlnlev, and will give 200 to 403 feet backs, and will cut the ore shoot above referred to. , So much for the wealth-producing ability of the mine, and so much for Its development But We Must Have a Cyanide Plant, Enlarge Our Stamp Mill From 5 to 40 Stamps. Construct an Aerial Tram way to Carry Ore to the Mill, Extend Present Tunnels and Sink Our Shafts Deeper This will require quite a lare expenditure of money above the $76,000 we already have in these improvements, ana to provide the means we have placed 50,000 Shares of Stock on Sale at Half Real Value The proceeds of this sale will be employed In extending tunnels and shafts already largely prosecuted, and the defrayment of other necessary expenditures. It was not originally intended to sell any stock at all. We had hoped to mine the property within ourselves, but it has been ascertained that the ore bodv Is so great that, with the present methods. It would require fifty years to mine it out. and we are not willing to die with half our gold still In the earth. We are fond of our posterity, and believe that we can render them the best service by mining the gold in this generation and leaving it to them In coined money rather than In quartz in the mountain. We Are Therefore Willing to Take a Few Partners Into This Most Profitable Enterprise Were we not a morsel selfish we would not be in a hurry to get all this money for ourselves within the next few years, but we are not so avaricious that we will not gladly share our bounty with those, who Join us now in ex pediting the recovery of this shining metal. We Are Confident That Our Shares Will Sell at $5 Each Within the Next 12 Months We are quite certain we will pay dividends to our shareholders before the close of the next seven months. We are sure that befr.re two years have passed, our stock will find ready sale at $10 the share, and that a harvest of $1000 will be garnered for every $103 invested now. Robert F. Scott, Clerk in First National Bank Portland, In vested $150 in Mining Shares Two Years Ago, and Five Months Since Sold These Shares at $105,000.00 He invested $80,000 of that money In Portland income property, and never will have to work another day. He ! now touring the world having a good time in consequence of his foresight. Hard Work Never Makes a Person Rich Mr. Scott was employed as a bank clerk at a salary of $103 per month, and- there are many good people who will say that even that sum Is no mean compensation. But Mr. Scott would have labored 87 yoars and six months to have earned that $105.0u0. With. this statement before us we begin to figure a little, and find that an employe's earnings wouia amount tu, per year oi $ 1 Der day 1 year. 1 year. 1 year. 2 per day 3 per day - 4 per day. 1 year C per day, 1 year, (i per day, 1 year. per day 1 year 8 bit day. 1 year 9 per day. 1 year 10 per day. 1 year We, therefore. s-e that, even at $10 per day salary, as fortunes are rated now. one would be rnlsed but a trifle above the grade of a pauper at the end of ten years' constant and continuous labor. If Bradstreet's or Dun's were to rate a business man at only $31,303, his credit would not be very extravagant at the wholesale house. If Mr. Scott Had Worked 33 Years at $10 a Day He Would Have Earned $103,290 But there are 1716 weeks in 33 years. At $5 per week for board and room Mr. Scott would have paid $8580.00. and. If a cleanly fellow, he would have expended at least 50 cents per week for laundry. Then it surely would have cost him $100 per year for clothing, making a total expense account of $12,738.0.3 for these three necessities, so thiit after a tenth of a century's toil, had he not spent a penny for any of the luxuries and pleasures of life, he would have banked $90,552.00.

The Gold Mine Must Be Worked for All These Coveted Prizes They can not be had from any other Bource, and we are offfering the people an opportunity to enjoy these luxuries at an expense almost too trifling to be named.
