QUARTZI1URQ MINES.
Prnirio City, Jan. 15, 1890.
EniToit Nkws: Having just rc
turned from a flyinc visit to Quartz
burg, which is situated on Dixie
creek about seven miles from this
place, I thought n few items of
news from that thriving little camp
would bo interesting to your many
readers. On arriving thero I was
very much surprised to find things
in such n booming condition, nl
thou eh thero were vevcrnl mines
which I did not visit on account of
tho snow which was alwut 2G inches
on n level. Hut nevertheless, I saw
enough to convince mo that Quartz
burg will undoubtedly be n Itooin
ing camp the coming spring. I first
visited tho
OHIK.NT MINE,
whero I found a tunnel driven about
three hundred feet, carrying a ledge
nbout two lect wide, which runs
from $100 to $800 tier ton. Justin
Henry, tliu principal owner in thi
mine, is making calculations on
having three hundred tons of this
ore on the dump by tho lint of
April. I next visited
TIIK DUTCHMAN,
owned by Pnul Faimnn; it ha been
considernbly duveloiicd. It shows
up a ledge of solid ore nbout 18
inches wide. There is n largo force
of men working this mino to n good
advantage. Wo next visited the
C0I.0IIAII0,
owned by John Lnurauco k Co. At
present thero thero is a force of
men working this mino on a lease.
Everything ap-wars favorable and
work is progressing in n manner
that indicates that tho company in
more than hopeful. Wo now visit
the most noted quartz mine of the
camp, known ns tho
IMIKSKNT JCKBD,
which shows up tho best developed
Iirosjiect in tho vicinity of Quartz
lurg. This mine is owned by an
individual who claims to bo an ex
ert in regard to working ore. He
is makimr nrcnarntions to nut un n
concentrator in the spring, which
will undoubtedly be a grand inven
tion. If this invention prows to bo
a success, everything will bo in
readiness for opcrntions on an ex
tensive scale by the first of April.

Plain talk from tho Fossil Jour
nal: Somo sneak thief in this
country has for a couple of years
been engaged in defacing the brand
of horses and cattlo that ho supos
ed to bo strays, sometimes by burn
ing out the whole brand, nnd other
times hy adding something to it, so
that thu owner would not likely re
cognize it ns his. Geo. Mettcer
brought over ono of his old inilch
cows from thu John Day, and she
has been running in this section
not far from town this fall. Sho
was a strange cow in this immedi
ate vicinity, and this sneak thief
has no doubt supiuscd hor to bo a
stray, and when Mr. Mettcer found
her tho other day to get up to feed
he noticed that her brand was
changed, and that her cars had
been cut oil shorter, entirely defac
ing the our murk. 11 Is not. sup
posed that thu sneak thief imitated
any particular murk or brand when
ho mudo tho change, hut in a sen
son or so ho no doubt would havo
claimed her as his own, if Mr, Met
teor hnd not known his cow by
night. Thero has been n good deal
of just such work as that, and it
perhaps will go on until ono lino
morning somo sneak thief will wnko
up and find himself in another
world, his body suspended from the
limb of a tree by a ropo. Wo would
regret that anything of that kind
would tako place, but stock thiev
ing has always had a strong ton
dency in thai direction in Kattcrn
Oregon, and has never failed to
work a euro in oveiy particular locality.
