Portland Man Brings Encour
aging News From Baker
and Malheur Counties
Reports from the mining districts In
Baker and Malheur counties are to the
effect that mining operations in the
Mormon Basin are more active and
that there Is a. greater awakening of
mining Interest there than for several
'.years past:
H.. O. Patterson, - manager of the
Cleveland Development company's mln
ing properties in the Mormon basin, re
cently returned from a trip Into Bakrr
and Malheur wuntles where' he spent
some time at the. various mines. V '
'While in the Mormon Basin," said
Mr. Patterson today, "I' went to the
Humboldt mine and personally in
spected "the development work being
done there,. A SOO foot shaft has been
sunk, and at the 100 and 200 foot lev
els 600 or 600 foot drifts have been
made, At the 200 foot level five
inches jof ore was uncovered ' running
J1B00 to ' the ton. 'The' ledge at this
level is 11, feet wide and will average
110 to $15 a ton. It is the Intention
of the Humboldt people to sink the
shaft 400 feet and drift on .the 309 and
400 foot levels. - The history of min
ing In the Mormon Basin shows that
the richest ore Is found at a depth of
300 and 400 feet. I was told that the
Humboldt people are preparing to put
in another 10 stamp bill giving them
10 stamps.' Power to operate these
stamps and the other machinery' of the
mine Is to be brought from the .big
electric power plant under construc
tion at Ox Bow on the Snake river. In
fact all the mines in the Mormon Basin
are planning to get power from the Ox

COMMITTEE SHOWS
WHY STREETS MUST
. NOT BE GIVEN AWAY
"..'. - '.v., :
Portland, Or., Nov. it. .To the Editor
Of The Journal. Klnrilv allnn in In
your la; issue before the meeting of
the oonnrll. Wnrineailsv whinh mv
pass on the east side street vacations,
to extricate from the tangle of confu
sion thrown about the matter a 'few
of the more cogent reasons why the va
cations should not be made, and set
them clearly before the public.
First It Is utterly unnecessary, as
everything needful to the railroad to
conduct its service can be granted by
a franchise such as it haa onerated
jinder there for the -, last "JO years.)
t-verytcing, except title, which in all
land so situate connecting the streot
system of a port dty with its harbor
and the harbor landings themselves,
ehould certainly remain with the city. ;
Seconds The policy of East Portland
when granting the franchise in 1387 was
to secure in exchange terminal facili
ties in this tract and terms to that ef
fect were specified In the franchise
with improvement of street connecting
therewith. , These vacations not only
Ignore this franchise and contract, but
abrogate It and vacate streets Improved
by the railroad under its provisions.
Third The city , hss, decided -to-invent
$2,500,000 In public docks. As part
of this monev will b Invinrl. in vaut
Portland, and as East Portland is not
devoid of business but can to great ad
vantage use such docks and will have
undoubted claims upon part of this pub
lio expenditure, and as this ground of
some 4000 feet In, extent along the- har
bor is adjacent to r abuts upon some
of the deepest near shore water In the
harbor, and Is the most centrally lo
cated for east side purposes. It appears
a rlme for the city's council to aban
don the city's rights therein to a rail
road already well Bupplied In this par-r
, tlcular and which can only need such
frontage to defeat the very purpose for
which the bond issue was voted. The
city, on the other hand, is practically
without harbor frontage, nearly all she
has left being included in these Vaca
tion. i;. ;.--'
. Fourth It Is said these streets are of
but UtUs use io the city. As far as this
is true it is because they are occupied
by the railroad, and this with the rail
road's ownership of the shore line has
not only arrested such use, but the use
and, development of a large tract of
land lying between the harbor and
. Union avenue, and Holladay avenue and
Clisan street.' And these v&eatlnna win
work further, large Injury to the value
oi uus traci as weu as ail East Fort
land. ' ' ,
It la not necexaarr . that tht '.tk.
stve and inestim&hlv valuable lanAh
either monopolised by the railroad" or
ne rauroaa excinaea tnererrom. The
ideal and very practical plan at this
time would ha to AiviA it ht-m t..
city and the railroad. Let both have
weir qocks, connect au flocks In the
city by a belt line of, railway, , with
. comolete i eonnectinna i nTH hnth rinMra
and railways. , Let all tracks be covered
by a common user. Then the transpor
tation activities of , all would become
harmonious and supplemental and this
T eternal warring for ( monopolistic ad
vantage and control would end. A J
