liereol that this camp and surround-
iugs- ill fnct the whole of northern
'.... ........i.. ...:n il...
ever, it lr the opinion ol the writer
lack ol roads. Heretofore the pros-
sictors have bad to use only a trail
in gelling supplies info camp, but
during the past few mouths thu
i niners, assisted by the people alsunt
(irnnite, mid inteiustud parties at
Pendleton, htivo cotnpletid a very i
gool waroii rwtd iii fnun tho north.
The fact thnt Pondlptoii holtied in
this mntter Iia; led .oin of tliPin to
liolieve tlmt Pendleton if doing
imiro for them tlutn linker City is,
although the Intler city, hy judici
ous nctions just now, could corral
the trade of the tireenhorn section,
tin the other hand. I U-lieve thnt if
Pendleton improves the road she
huilt iu "placer times,' to (irnnite,
mid place n stage lino thereon, mid
n store md shipping place on (Jrcen
horn mountain, the fad thnt Pen
dleton has railroad coiiictitiou in
freight rates, nnd the siierior enter
prise of the merchants, will on use
the trade of this entire country to
Ih diverted from linker Citv, unlesi
the husiiiess men there make mi ef
fort to retain the good will of the
miners, tion or Itcforc the comple
tion of the Stimuli r alley railroad.
Many of the miners have conven-ed '
to me on this suhject, and, in .nidi-
tiou to being lr ft out in the mutter
of load assistance, they say that '
they ate enabled to do business and ,
obtain supplies at either one of the
stores in (Irnnite. much rhenper
than they have lieeu able to do iu
Maker City.
Of course the iiu'iehiuits of the ;
Jonh Dav would like to rompetu with 1
other sections for this trade, but if ,
the merchants cannot do hi the
limner can, ami now is me nine or
I ' .I ... w

Hour, grain, vegetables and fruits,
can lind a readv ensh market in
this section if we onlv have roads .
A practicable route to the summit
of (ireenhorii is said to be from i
. . . . ... I
Austin' s, by way of Little Mum...;"' '""' cre,K. .-t.g o. ...
reek, running through l.lnclc pme
orests most ol the way, nml on easy
for
grades. I am told thai the csti- (
mated cort of this toad is about '
iSW, of which sum tho miners
would contribute a considerable ;
share in labor. On its completion i
the peddlers from the John Day
valley could take the route tot ireen
horii City, go down the Pendleton '
road to (iranite, come back by way '
of KohiiiFoiivilk- ami ilirKse of their j
surplus goods, if any, to thu miners '
there, mid return home loaded with
rhiuiiig $ ?.
This road would Ih greatly lo the '
advantage of the people of our sec- !
lion, and the jsjople of the valley i
should see that it is built, as the '
cost would not 'ie enormous. Kneli
one of us could contribute a fewdol- '
lars or a umple of days' work, and :
almost before we knew it wo would i
hnve ,- gtssl road directly into the !
heart of the great mining crimp
Prairie City ieople, assisted by
the ininerr, built a gtxHl wagon !
road from Austin's lo Itobinsonvillo.
through linker county timet of the
way, hut that only taps a portion of
the mineral belt.
As my stav Umiii the mountain ,
was limited I am indebted lo Mr. .

many items of information which 1
