The placer miuus on Myrtle croek, 13

years evoi v winter and, though a largo
quantity of gold hag been taken out, tbe
imprersuiii maun on ine ueposii. wntcu
aa a a lungin oi miles atw covers
KXX) acres, is ao nnall that little seems to
have been doue. Tbe water aupply is
insullicieut for mining in summer, but
wheu the Myrtle t'teek Mining Com
pany extends ita ;(U-iuile ditch six in ilea
iurlher. lo the Kast UmiMiua, it will be
enabled to work the yoax round, as will
those owning claims immediately below
tbe company's iroierty. This company
ban 1000 acres ol mining ground, and
when at work ruus six giants and eui
ploys about X meu. By extending the
said 3ti-mile ditch over the divide eepar

for working tho Lee's creek mines, aud
it is evident that iu this mammor the
value ol those properties would bft en

One ol the most extensive mining
proper! iea in tbe state ia tbat of the
ABO Miuing Company, on the
south side ol Cow creek, a few
miles this aide of Ulendale. Be
fore the recent reincorporation it
waa called the Mutory mine. Ihe pla
cer deposit owned by the company,
which is com posed of Chicago capitalists,
baa au area of 1000 acres, traversed by
two old chaunela, one laperpoeed on the
other. The lower channel consists of a
stratum of blue gravel from 40 to 60 lost
in depth and 100 yards wide, and the
upper cnannei ox res gravai irom eu to
100 feet deep, with an average width ol
one mile. During the past wloter, four
Siants were used, -each-of whinh pro
ucdln 24 honrs $100 in gold. The
amount inveated ia $175,000, but wilb
this Increased to at least llttO.OOO by tbe
construction of 20 milea of ditch, tapping

riuhts have been secured, water in sutn-
cieut volume com a ixt ootaiuea to oner

are now three miles of ditch summed by
two creeks. An essential part oi the
Dreseiit ulaut is a steam pump, having
capacity ol 8,000,000 gallona per day. It
elevates the water of Cow creek 36.6 feet
into a reservoir which runs one giant
li'JO feet below. Tbe dump has an eleva
tiuu ol from 80 to 10J feet, aud Cow creek,
when swollen, carries oil' all the debris.
Tho number ol men employed when tbe
mine ia boimz worked is from 20 to 30

the now Victory company. It operates

Fourteen miles east of Itosuburg, ou
podaou mountain, which rlres to height
of 3U00 (cut, iB a miueral deceit ol vast
extent, winch has been little explored.
A number of claims have beou located,
but a comparatively small amount ol
development work has been done.
Messrs. Kiev, Kimball and Hml, who
own the Black Itepubtlcaa, have dis
played the moet enterprise la this re-
stwet. This mine compntos three par
allel veins, wblch Lave beoa traced lor
miles, haying respectively a pidin oi ,
1 1 and 10 fw t, in syenite and diorite
formations. The ore obtained consists
of cbalco-pyritcs, assaying from 6 to 14

Is a "Iiom uroDoaition." lb re tunnel
have been driven into this mine, one 40

third 100 feet. They will be extended
100 feet farther. These three gentlemen

In a northeastern tUrecttuii from '.he

I OKKXK t'MkMbK.
The mutt famou mining camp ol pio
neer days was at Coffee creek and Texas
gulch, tributary to the South Uinpua,
where a neb strike was mane in
As early as Ptt2. however, gold had been
obtained in paying quantities at the
mouth of the creek, f rom tbe condition
ol tbe banks at present, it is evident tbat
tbe pay dirt ex i ted exclusively on the
right bank going up stream, the opposite
bank showing little indication ol haviog
been disturbed. Hundreds ol men for a
few short yeara hekl high carnival here
lib the millions ol dollsr they dug out
of the ground Twenty, thirty, fifty dol
lars per mao was tbe average daily out
put, and occasionally .nuggets were
picked up running from a hundred to
several hundred dollars in value. The
saloons located on the creek aod tbe
5 ambler gathered a golden harvest,
be miners wildly squandered their
easily gotten wealth as long a their
claims 1 1 eld out. and but -few ol itiem
looked out for the inevitable rainy day.
Fifty-dollar slugs were more plentiful
than nickels are now. , It is possible
tbat, if an excavation were made iu tbe
bluff above tbe ngbt bank ol tauee
creek, to bedrock, a continuance ol tbe
same auriferous deposit might be found.
Miners say ttiat gold never was lound in
Cotleo creek above Texas gulcb. Several
miles up this gulch the aucieut channel
is covered by conglomerate rocks wbich
in turn are covered by a slide from tbe
mountaio aide. It is believed by ex
iwrte tbat, by drifting in several direc
tions under the conglomerate, the chan
nel would be found, which, juding from
tbe erstwhile richness of Coffee creek,
would probably yield bushels of gold.
... Format Reerve-Rgu(atron8.
Much attcutiou baa been paid recent
ly by tbe ireneral land office at Washing
ton to the preparation of rules snd regu

miueral resources aud forest reserves are
iiermitted. f jtnda for rchoolhouses and
churches are provided and water for do

purposes are also allowed. Construction
of wagon roads is authorized and the
right ol way across reserves for irrigat

Mineral lands of the forest reserves are
subject to location and entry under mm

An Indian War Veteran.
EniioK Plaibdealkk: Diel at the
Oregon .Soldiers' Home July - J, of old
age and general debility, William John
sou aged SO years. The deceased was
among tbe very first to respond to the
call for volunteers to relieve the stricken
and captured survivors of the Whitman
massacre. lie lived during the last
years previous to coming to the Home
in Lane county, Or., some seven miles
west ot fcugene. tie was buried in the
Home cemetery on the 3d inet., with all
the honor accorded to tbe dead soldier.
Thue, one more ot Umm old. -survivor a jA
our Indian wars has passed away.
There are still in the Home fifteen of
thoee participants in early Oregon his
tory. Their combined ages aggregate
1085 years, or an average of 07'..; years
each, the youngest being 03, and tbe old
est S3. Those men came to Oregon
when a vast wilderness stretched from
the Missouri Kiver to tbe Pacific Ocean.
How much of national growth, history
and buuiau progress have thoee old vet
erans witnessed : venir. tnote men
weie tbe picket line, the advance guard,
and tbe wall of defense that made pos
sible tbe Oregon of today. Do we fully
appreciate tbeir services 1 tniux not.
Even hero in the Home their service is
looked uon with contempt by sime ol
thare iiensioned survivors of our civil
war. w bo never rendered one nine oi me
service or imaged through one-half of the
privation and danger that our inuian
War Veterans have. All hail to those
bravo men who built their camp fires
along the trail where our continental
railways now ruu and stood guard on
the shores of the Pacific where many ol
the pensioners of tbe late war were play
ion marbles iu security under the shadow
ol Bunker inn monument.
