Leaving this mine we were rapidly
driven to the Virtue mine two miles
distant, where, after again feasting
the inner man, we were shown
through the world renowned Vir-
tue mine, said to be one of the Oregon are many and varied,
greatest goia producers in tne west.
At this mine they were working on
the 800 feet level, but as they had
but recently experienced an acci
dent the printers were not allowed j waste basket
traveler that a rich harvest has been
gathered into the granaries; away
to the foothills, and farther even to
the snow-capped mountains, whose
rock-ribbed sides are being tunneled,
blowed, cut and robbed of their
treasures, the eolden nugget which
is being fashioned into the almighty
dollar; all these things bring to my
mind the fact that the resources of

were we to attempt to describe the
resources of one Oregon's thirty-two
counties in one article, we fear the
office devil would cast it all into the
to visit this level none but the
devil.
Next a walk of a quarter of a
mile brought us to the Consolidated
Virginia. This property is adjoin
ing the Virtue, and they hope to
strike the same vein. Here we
again dined, and we are compelled
in candor to say that we never saw
a more bountiful spread, or one
more elegant in all respects. This
dinner must have cost the owners
of the mine several hundred dollars.
We had always heard that miners
were hospitable, but we never sup
posed that a feed of the kind we re
ceived could be gotten up at a mo
ment's notice in a miuing camp.
We noted that in all mines we vis
ited that the company have provid
ed good, warm, comfortable quar
ters for their employes; and we will
say that we never met a more gen
tlemanly set of men than the super
intendents of these Eastern Oregon
mines.
Returning to Baker City, on
Monday morning those who desir
ed were shown over Baker City.
We visited the court house and met
the county officers, who, of course,
treated us well, as it is well known
that all the county officers are not
ed for their hospitality. At the
the bank we were shown some fine
specimens, and were informed that
about $250,000 in gold was the out

A few weeks ago the editor was
taken with a severe cold that
caused him to be in a most raiser
able condition. It was undoubted
ly a bad case of lagrippe and recog
nizing it as dangerous he took im
mediate steps to bring about a
speed cure. From the advertise
ment of Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy and the many good recommen
dations included therein, we con
cluded to make a first ttial of the
medicine. To say that it was sat
isfactory in its results is putting it
very mildly, indeed. It acted like
magic and the result was a speedy
and permanent cure. We have 110
hesitancy in recommending this ex
cellent cough remedy to anyone af
flicted with a cough or cold in any
form. The Banner of Liberty. Lib
