The dumping of large quantities of
low erode garden truck aud fruits in
the Eugene territory by out of state
and itinerant peddlers will be the sub
ject of a complete investigation by
the agricultural division of tho Eu
geue chamber of commerce, according
to Fred E. Chambers, president of
the division. A special meeting of
the division has been called for Thurs
day at 4 p. m. in the chamber rooms.
The seriousness of this practice
was pointed out by Mr. Chambers,
who stated that the chamber force had
made a survey of the outside peddlers
who arrived in Eugene on Monday
morning and found eight parties were
offering practically every fruit and
vegetable at ruinously low prices nnd
selling both wholesale nnd retail. Pro
duce from Seattle, Walla Walla, Yak

Imperial valley in California was be
ing peddled on the city streets. Prac

PORTLAND, Ore., July 13. UP)
A rush of eastern capital into the
southern Oregon gold fields assumed
more definite proportions today with
the announcement last night that two
of the largest properties in the state
will be developed at an investment of
about ?3,500,000.
J. H. Gallagher, Portland mining
engineer, spenking, he said, on behalf
of men backing the enterprise, told
of plans for development of the two
properties, Emily Gold, Inc., and Col
umbia Gold, Inc.

Arnold H. Goss of Detroit, former
member of the board of General Mo
tors, beads the combine anu is presi
dent and principal stockholder of the
two companies.
One of the parcels is on Graves
creek north of Grants 1'ass and al
ready, it is said, has produced more
than $5,000,000 in gold. In late years
operations have fallen off because
conflicting ownerships made difficult
its effective operation .
The other property Is in Curry
county and contains. Gallagher said,
a deposit the size of which "staggers
the imagination ot even a miner.
Ore Body Large
This parcel is from 1500 to 2500
acres wide and more than three miles
long. Outcropping and exposed, this
entire length is an ore body 3O0 to
400 feet wide, showing 400 to 500 feet
in depth of the cliffs at each end.
Thousands of assays, the miners say,
show this free-milling ore body to
average from $2.50 to $3 a ton.
W. F. Hayden of Salt Lake City Is
in charge of the entire operation.
Gallagher said Hayden had spent
more than two years and $125,000 in
cash investigating the field before the
group purchased the properties which
comprise several thousand acres of
land, located in Josephine and Curry
counties. 1
The Curry countj project Is east
of Brookings.
Those backing the two develop
ments said no stock is being sold in
either.

Libby llolrann came home today to

Although there was no suggestion
