The Klaber firm Is said to be very snort or good, goods and its wnirlwlnd ' purohases of ' the past few days are said to be the desire of the firm to get irom under. It is likewise stated that the firm is working In conjunction with E. Clo meat Horst, the noted bear leader of tne nop ma rKet, to corner the supplies of the Pacific coast The "corner" Is probably aimedj at the firm of Isaac t'lncus ft Honr of Tacorna, which has been a very heavy short seller for the present crop. Failure of the Flncus lirm to enter the combine Is assigned by ..some Interests as the reason for the' record-breaking purchases by the Klaber and Horst Interests during the past few days. While It would be difficult to es . timate absolutely ' correctly what the total crop of Oregon was this season, prominent dealers assert that only about per cent of the total production Is now being held by growers,- the rest of the crop being under' contract or already purchased. One reason for the great activity . of the big people this season here is that England will have. a much smaller crop t nan expeciea ana tne quality win oo scarcely more tnan medium. WHEAT MARKET IS FIBMEIl AFTER A SPELL OF WEAKNESS The weak market firmed considerably during the past week. With European values more settled because of the pub lication of the American government re port showing' a smaller crop than had been expected, all other markets ad vanced, and this helped the local trade. The receipts of grain at Portland for the past week as compared with prevl k ous periods as reported by the board of trade show in cars: Barley. Flour. Hay. Oats. Wheat, v Oct. 10.. ..69 19 79 22 178 Oct. 3 35 2 40 45 473 Sept. 26.. ..72 9 69 60 749' Kept. 19.... 45 17 90 69 689 Sept. 12 81 ( 39 103 72 736 Oats market was easier and firmer by turns, but the market closed at about the same figures as a week ago.

Under date of October 6, 1908, our engineer, Mr. H. D. Williams, M. E.. reports as follows : "We have been busy getting in the ventilating system and it works like a charm, I am rather proud of that stunt myself. "We cut another streak of quartz in the breast, considerably larger than anything we have hit heretofore. "Tunnel No. 1 is certainly taking on the 'ear marks' of a lively looking property, and I guess it is a good thing we have the ventilator, or the boys would all be asphyxiated, hurrying back into the powder smoke to see what the last shot turned up, I was up to Tunnel No. 4 today this is in 86 feet and has a fine quartz showing. The vein pitches into the ground quite rapidly, and would have to be developed by an incline from the present tunnel. There is one of the biggest quartz leads in the slate, that I have seen on the prop erty it pans nicely and will make a mine itself. "Tunnel No. 4 wouLd make a mighty good lease for those people, as it shows some nioe mineral. I expect flat royalties of 15, one year's time would be about all right, here, where they open up their own ground, although that ia a hard proposition to figure, as in the Blflte they are likely to strike pockets of nuggets that would give them an inclination to do a little 'hitxh cradinff And it. would be hard to keep tab on your own men, to say nothing of leases. "Just as soon 'as I can get the pressing work caught up, I will get at those maps for you, with the different tunnels, their location and development, with vein strikes and various otner information." From the above you will observe that our men anticipate breaking into big ore values after every shot of powder. They are n the ground, old, experienced miners, and they ought to know. A telegram may any day give the news, then our stock will take a jump in price. Get in now while .the price is still 25c per share Regarding tunnel No. 4, where Mr. Williams says "those people," he refers to parties who are negotiating with us to work some of our ground under a lease contract We have several such negotiations pending. Don't lose sight of this property it's a big money-maker for all of its stock holders. . $5.0 J Cash and $5.00 Monthly Wfll Buy 200 Shares The same ratio of payments will buy a larger number of shares.
