Gold Strike On Deschutes River No end to excitment was caus ed here last week by the discov ery of a gold deposit in the vi cinity of Lower Bridge on the Deschutes. M. Robinson who lives near Redmond, sent a quan tity of the gold bearing sand to the assay office in Portland the first of the week and the assay proved that some of it at least, bears $18 in gold to the ton. The richest sand yet taken was found beneath the surface of the water in the river bed. It is believed by those who have visited the place and are enthusiastic about it that an average of $12 per ton will be found. It is said that a company of capitalists from Minnesota have become interested in the propo sition and staked a number of claims with a view to immediate developement. Saturday, a par ty of ten went from here to Low er Bridge, and a number of claims were staked. Several other peo ple have visited the gold deposit during the week from here as well as from Terrebonne, Prine ville, and other near-by towns and all pass the opinion that it is a rich find. There is no doubt but that the claims will be work ed. It is not at all improbable that a rich strike has been made, say mining men, judging from surface indications. Redmond Hub.
