TO-FORESWEAR FISH WOULD BE " ECONOMICAL LENTEN SACRIFICE Fish are few and prices are high. That Is the dictum that must bring worry to the over sealous churchmen theae days.'- Whether the high water has brought up the fish prices or some one, well versed In church matters has secured a corner In fish, would be hard to say. But certain It Is that those who care fully eat fish every Friday because th law of the church 'dictates that they must eat no meat, may look for a raise in their board bills If they demand from iiieir isnaiaaino nan ror all the ap pointed uaya throughout Lent.

' ' According to - the annual report luat Issued by the Wisconsin state board of arbitration and conciliation, tha demand of organised wage-earners for "recogni tion of their union" and for tha mainte nance of the so-called "closed shop " are the chief cause of Industrial strikes la that state, . ' - I (ftpeelsl tHspetea te The Joarsst.) . Baker. City, Feb. t. -With a seven- foot ledge of horn-blended ore gplng 3 a ton traced for o00 feet in length and $10,000 worth of ore lying en the aurface ready for milling. George. Wag ner and Charles Oueat, the. miners who made the -rich strike on California mountain last May, are preparing for extensive operations. It la tha belief that their property, known as th Ore. gon Chief group, is on the original dyke which has been' feeding the placer mine Of th Mormon basin district It adjoins the Kainbow. the Quarts mine operated 'with excellent .results .for th past five years by W. E, King, and they believe the Oregon Chief Is on th upper nd of th am dyk with th. Rain bow., Last yar Mr. Wagner - was In th employ of Mr. King at tb Rainbow. He had prospected over the eastern Oregon district for the past sight years and was thoroughly familiar with tha dif ferent formations. He had never been In ' tha Mormon basin country before, although he had been within four miles of his present strike on a previous trip, but waa told by other prospectors that there was nothing there and so turned back. While working-in th Rainbow Mr. Wagner was struck with th simi larity of th formation to that In th Colorado gold fields. Finally he de cided to strike out for himself. Associating himself with Charles QuaaL Wagner started into th hills surrounding Mormon basin. The pros pectors had not bean in th hills more than six week when tney mao their rich discovery. Bine that time they havs' been working th property by themaelvea and now hav or on. th snrfao which Mr. Wagntr declares will easily go 110.000. ' Th dyk on which th Oregon Chief I located la peculiar formation in eastern Oregon., being th only phono lit mine to be found- In this district Th hornblende ore In which th mining men place their faith has been dis dained by prospectors In th past as worthless, Mr. Wagner says, but - has been proven to be very valuable by th work don on th caiuornia mountain claim. Work at th Rainbow mine has shown conclusively that th aaatern Oregon ere bodies Improve with depth. The ore has been Improving In the Rainbow and th mine is producing rioner or than ever before. Thar are numerous prospect In Mormon basin which hav every Indication of becoming producing mines In tba future. OLD VIRTUE GOOD YET New Mea Who Control It Have Rea son for Their Great Faith. . .
