' " ' J Ba sura to try It Oregon women no matter In what part of th aUte they reside will not have to work mora than .10 hours .a day if O. P. Hoff,' state labor commissioner. is able to prevent 4t. In Portland the commissioner has waged a fairly suc cessful battle until In most of the in stitutions where women are employed the hours of labor for any one employe are not more than the space permitted by the law. ' Outside of Portland, however, up and down the Willamette valley in, the lit tle towns of Balem, Eugene, Albany, Cdrvallts and others, the men who hire women in stores and factories look with some degree of lightness upon the law, or did until the recent trip of the com missioner through the country- Now most of hem are obeying what the statute provides. . According to Mr. Hoff, who haa Just returned from a visit through the valley, he found a great many cases of law vio lation on his trip. In most Instances, however, the violations were more the result of Ignorance of the law or of carelessness than -of wilful intent and therefore nothing more than admoni tions to- be good were given by the com missioner. In some instances, however, employers laughed at the warnings of the official and are therefore on the black- list. "I am watching for those fellows and will get them before I finish," is the way Mr. Hoff put It this morning in dis cussing the question. The greatest difficulty experienced by the commissioner in his work partic ularly In Portland, is in the failure of thoii who call his attention to viola tions of the law in discovering the names of the women who are worked beyond the legal limit. Ia tha future, however, these names will be secured and the proprietors will - be convicted upon the evidence of their employes. Mr. Hoff will remain in Portland for a short time on business connected with his office. ft (stomach - s liru i CTM I 1 e 71 . t IB il A I.

A lease haa been closed by the Sum p ter Valley Railroad company of 8,000 acres of ground near Whitney, Oregon, to the Western Exploration A Dredging company of Portland. The latter cor poration, of which the late H. W. Uoode was president, and F.-.M. Batcb elor is secretary and general manager, will place a gold dredge in operation on the ground. ' The dredging company has been for the last year operating drills in the Burnt River valley, where it now con trols 12,000 acres of creek bottoms and bench lands where placer gold deposits are known to exist. Its operations are for the purpose of determining the lo cation and course of the dredge to be Installed. Its lands are on Pine creek, Camp creek. Gimlet creek and their tributaries, all rich placer grounds in the early mining days of eastern Ore gon. Embraced in the leases is about 15 miles of the Burnt river channel and valley, separated into two tracts by a box canyon. The upper tract is near Bridgeport, the lower tract Is near Durkee. a station on the O. R. N. line. They also Include the Clark's creek hy draulic mining ' property, which has been a steady producer for 40 years and is about three) miles In extent along Clark's creek. Burnt river Is a narrow, tortuous stream1 rising near the famous Bonanza group of mines In the Blue mountains and flowing east ward through a highly mineralized belt to which the government geologists have given much attention In recent The gold found is a heavy, fine gold, easily saved In ordinary sluicing, and worth about $18 per ounoe. The depth given oy tne arm recoras or mo area na mmmnv shows there Is an aver- are of 35.000 to 40.000 cubic yards of placer ktuuuu poi bvib ium face to bedrock, and the officers of the company claim that the values obtained indicate an acreage value of $7,000 to 115,000. If the development bears out this estimate, eastern Oregon bids fair to become a great field for the gold dredge. California- in the vicinity of Oroville has been invaded by the gold dredges to the extent of destruction of thou sands of acres of orchards ana vine yards, and vast areas of farm lands have been reduced to rock piles, yield ing quantities of gold dust that have amased those who formerly cultivated the soil. In a recent number of the Booklovers' Magazine Harold Bolce characterized these dredges as "today the most remarkable source of wealth on the American continent." He made the amazing statement that the lowest estimate shows a net product per dredge of $6,000 per month, operating in the lowest-valued yardage of about 9 cents per yard around Oroville. Returns from California gold dredges are rarely divulged, and the dredging companies are secretive concerning their profits tor the reason that they want to avoid paying Increased prices for lands.
