Dr.J. W. Mahon, of Elmira,
Lane county, was a passenger on
Tuesday's train for Newport. Dr.
Mahon goes to the vicinity of Otter
Rock, where he believes there is a
deposit of platinum ore. There is
110 question but that platinum exists
along that part of the coast. In the
black sand deposits in that vicinity
there is always a large percentage
of platinum found in connection
with the gold deposits. There is
but one deposit of platinum ore in
existence in the United States, and
if a deposit does exist in this coun
ty it will be of much value. The
greatly increased use of platinum in
electrical appliances has made that
metal quite valuable, now being
next to gold in value. The ore is
of a peculiar character. It is found
in small, rough and extremely hard
nuggets. The ore does not
in ledges, but the nuggets are found
in layers similar to gravel beds.
Dr. Mahon is making his investiga
tion in the interest of a firm in the
East who have a plant for the re- J
duction of plattuum ore.

SUIT IS FINALLY BROUOHT.
The County Clerk Sued to Recover Al
leged Shortages.
Yesterday two suits were filed in
the Circuit court of this countv
against B. F. Jones, as county clerk
and his bondsmen for his last two
terms, to recover the sum of $5286,
00, money alleged to be due the
county collected by the clerk and
by him retained as his legal fees
and emoluments; also for money re
ceived in the redemption of property
sold at delinquent tax sale.
This suit is one which has long
been threatened by the court, but
for some reason has never been
brought before. The old contention
that the clerk is on a salary is made
in the complaint, and seems to be
the whole kernel of trip matter f 1
i " .i...in.t . A lie
ex,sM case will be heard at the cominr
term of court, and we do not hes
itate to predict that some interesting
developments will be made.
