M,j "le Mlra Realty jjf OKI DfllclS To Central Oregon-Best Road to develop this Country. Tlio lust rail of tho Great Sou thorn railroad from The Dulles to Dufur was laid a week ago on Sunday, and tho officials of that road now declare that thoy will immediately begin construction upon tho extension of Iho road from Dufur to Bend, the road eventually to averse Oregon from north to south. Work on the next segment, 22 miles in length, will commence at once and this will tap thoim metiBO belt of yellow pine tim ber in southern Wasco county, crossing tho rich Juniper Flat farming district. These are the promiseH made by' those high in authority in the Grout South ern company. Until right recently Mr. Kar ri man seemed to hold the rail road destiny of this section of the state in tho palm of his hand, and our only hope lay in the extension of the Columbia Southern railroad or some other "feeder" for the 0. Ii. & N. Co., and that hope was a very slim one as long Us liarrlmun could keep this country bottled up. The recent announcement, how ever, that tho Northern or Hill lines aro going to build down tho north bank of tho Columbia to Portland has placed an en tirely new phase upon tho rail road situation, and that an nouncement contains more prom ise of. Ti railroad for Central Or egon than wub ever held in any of Mr, Harriman's semi-ocuas-ional assurances that the "Co lumbia Southern will bo extend ed at once." For, if the Dufur road bo either a "detached" road or a llill road, it will be come a constant sonrco of dan ger to the Harriman dominion in Central Oregon after the north bank road is built, and either Harriman must build into Central Oregon at once, or he will iind himself shut out. There aro those who oven now believe that tho Dufur road has Hill's "moral support)" which in railroad building is equiva lent to financial backing. Cer talnly, if the Dufur road is really being built by a com pnny oomposed chieily of Port land merchants and Seattle' con struction contractor, as is claimed, and thoy are going to build an entirely independent line traversing the state from north to south, they occupy a unique position among similar railroad builders of any state, in that thoy have sought no bo nuses and asked no favors in any territory which they pro pose to traverse. Ill this connection it may bo stated that tho Dufur road ap pears the most feasible of any of the routes proposed into Cen tral Oregon, both as to econ omy of construction and pro ductiveness of the territory to bo travbrsed, If tho proposed route across Juniper Flat to the Warm Springs river, down that to the Desohtites, and then up Trout Creek and iioross this suction of the country into Cen tral Oretrbn. is followed, it is blaimod that the maximum grade will hot exceed two per cent, and the road will paBS its on tiro length through a iUost productive territory, Those aro tho things that cotUitlu railroad building MERCURY FROM LOOKOUT Crook County Journal, Pure, white quicksilver, worth $40 a flash, flowed from the new cinnabar furnace on Lookout mountain for a short thne Wed nesday, and ' then operations were discontinued until a drier can be built. A few hours work at the furnace whJch has been undergoing the process of being "blown in" during the past 10 days, demonstrated two things: that the ore is rich with mer cury, and that owing to the ex cessive, amount of moisture which it contains it will bo nec essary to absorb this water be fore the ore can bo successfully treated in the furnace built for the purpose. About 10 tons of ore were burned Wednesday out of which there was condensed about 150 pounds of quicksilver. A large percentage was lost in the tail ings and escape of the pases caused by too sudden slipping of the ore down the pitch of the furnace when the ore matter became dry. Otherwise results are highly satisfactory and con struction will begin at once on a drier so that as little time as possible will be lost before get ting the maximum daily output from the furnace. SAWMILL PAR piOD A big sawmill is being built by Minnesota people near Ash- wood in the northern part of this county. The machinery was hauled out from Shaniko last week, the boiler weighing in the neighborhood of 11,000 pounds. The mill will have a capacity of about 25,000 feet per day, and Mr. Haugen, who is manager of the new lnmber company, says that their mar ket will be found in the terri tory tributary to Antelope and Shaniko and Ashwood. Later on, it is claimed, the company expects to put in a sash and aoor manufacturing plant, and manufacture a large part of their lumber into sashes and doors. INDIANS MUSTHAVEUCEN3E Attorney -General Crawford has rendered an opinion that Indian hunters must have a li cense when hunting off cf the reservaiion, but no license is re quired for them to hunt on the reservation. Under tho law passed by the last legislature of this state, all hunters are re quired to have a license, which oan be obtained from the coun ty clerk for a fee of 81. The question as to whether Indians ure required to have this li cense was raised by the state game warden, and the attorney linn decided that it will bo required when the Indian goes off his reservation after game.

Moor, and formerly located at Mbro, in Sherman county, are showing the moneyed men of Portland what can be done in the promo tion of vast business enterprises by men of some capital and a considerable quantity of pluck and business nerve. They have only been residing at Portland for a few months, and already they are reckoned among the prominent factors in the devel opment of the city. Mr. W. H. Moore is president of the Oie gon Savings Bank; he and his brother own the Moore Invest ment Company; during the sura-? mer they purchased an immense suburban tract of property, which will be platted and placed upon the market, and now they are the promoters and iinancial backers of a plan for the con struction of a big string of job bing and wholesale houses which will change the map of the wholesale district of Port land. The plan, which was formu lated by W. H. Moore, contem plates the erection of five big live-story buildings, costing ap proximately $9,000,000, for the use of wholesale and jobbing houses. These will be built in connection with the terminal buildings of the Northern Paci fic railroad, and will overcome the tremendous drayage charges which the wholesale distriot of Portland now has to bear. The phaee of this enterprise which is of most interest to the people of this section, however is the appearance of life and ac tivity Portland assumes when an Eastern Oregon financier gets down there and shows them how to get their idle millions into action. The lack of a few Moores and Lytles has been the greatest handicap Portland has had in its contest for commer cial supremacy in the North west. A STAMPEDEFOR GOLD Fine Prospect Found on Broken Top, West of Bend. Jleiut Bulletin. Blacksmith W. A. Hunt and A. J. Harter, of Laidlaw, last Saturday returned from a two weeks prospecting trip in the Cascade mountains. They brought specimens of a soft prophyritio rock bearing gold sulphuret8. After finding the ledge they had gone across the range to the Blue River mines and had an analysis of the rock made, which showed a gold value of $12 a ton. Yesterday morning Hunt and Harter, with Ted Henry, George Long, J. C. Thorpe, A. E. Wees ner, Fred Wallace, E. E. Day ton, A, P. Donahue and Wil liam Diener, rode out to the gulch at the foot of Broken Top where the find was made to stake off claims. The distance is 22 miles by road and trail or 10 miles in a straight line, from Laidlaw, and the same distance fronl Bend, due weat. Hunt is an experiened miner and his judgment goes for a good 'deal ill this enterprise. He and Harter located two claims, naming onb Ltioky Two and the other Hunt aiid Harter. While these prospectors were out their horses became impris oned in a gulch where they tu'iulv died.
