A Mosier Industry.
. For some days a poor fellow has been
selling around town some very fine
pieces of silica for polishing metal.
More than one person has looked upon
the stuff as a manufactured article, but
such is not the case. The man's name
is W. T. Meeks and he gets the silica
from a claim located by him fourteen
miles west of The Dalles. It is in the
natural state and the cakes that be sells
are sawed out of .the vein that run across
his place. It is likely that he lias a
very valuable" property, for it is seven
feet in width and of unknown depth,
extending across his forty acres. The
silica can, be taken out in blocks six
feet through. A well-known Buffalo
chemist assayed specimens of it two
years ago and learned that it was ninety
eight per cent pure. Inasmuch as that
found along the Atlantic coast seldom
runs higher than twenty-five per cent,
and must he refined, Meek's property,
which can be used in its natural state,
should be worth a great deal. Portland
