ASSAY OFFICE AT BAKER BILL FOR ITS ESTABLISH- t MENT REPORTED FAVORABLY ouse Committee Ordered Favorable Report By a Vote of Five to Four, on Thursday. By a vote of five to four the house committee on coinage Thursday ordered a favorable report on the bill to establish an assay office at Baker City. No action was taken on the Portland bill. Representative Moodoy, who Intro duced the bill, said the report was or dered on the showing that of $1,800,- 000 gold produced in Oregon In 1900, all but $500,000 came from the western part of the state, immediately tributary to Baker City. Moody and Tongue were both present, and Moody said a mo tion was made to postpone the con Bideration of all bills until the next ession. This was amended by one of his friends, who moved to amend for a report in favor of the Baker City bill. "I do not hope to secure the pas- sago of my bill this session," said Moody, "but will have it on the calen dar and will try to get it through next session." Representative Tongue said: will not do anything to retard the passage of the Baker City bill. In fact, I will do everything I can to se cure its passage, because I am con fident when it reaches the senate it will be amended by striking out the -words "Baker City' and substituting the one 'Portland.'"

Black 91 Cleaver Bros THE GOLCONDA MINE. The Price of Treasury Stock Is Net to Be Less Than 25 Cents a Share. Treasury stock in the Golconda Consolidated Gold Mines company will not be sold for less than 25 cents a share hereafter. At a meeting of the directors of the company, Thursday night in Pen dleton this was decided upon after listening to a report of the develop ment work at the mine and the re sults thereof, made by Manager J. H. .Robbins, who was present at the meeting. It was also decided to start up ten stamps soon after July 4th and a liti tie later to operate twenty stamps, the full capacity of the mill, and continue the development work which requires thirty miners at the present time. The showing made at the mine in the past sixty days, since work at the mine was resumed, is excellent and more than satisfactory to the board of directors. The rich ore al ready blocked out and the results obtained assures handsome returns when the stamps start up. From every standpoint it does ap pear that those who have invested in the stock of the mine have no cause for regret. School Census.

CASSAVA ROOT. Chicago Packers to Experiment With It In Fattening Stock. Plans that were first taken into consideration about a year ago, have been developed in tho last few months to the point whore some of tho gTeat packing houses in Chicago have be gun experiments on what may prove a revelation in the cattle Industry of the country says tho Intor-Ocean. The project involves the settlement of soveral thousand acres of what Is now valueless land in northern and northwestern Florida and southern Alabama, tho cultivation on a largo scale of cassava root and its use in feeding cattle and hogs. If the plan develops as It is now in the minds of the leading packers, the southern states will become the center of the cattle raising industry. It Is stated that arrangements are now being made for the accommoda tion of a considerable number of cat tle to be shipped from the Btock yards hero to northern Florida to be fed on cassava root. Tho result of tho fattening process will bo com pared with similar work in the west, regarding which the conditions and cost are already definitely known. The result obtained will determine the future of the cassava expert ment. For Salo Cheapl One IS.foot combined harvester. One 14-foot-steel frame header. One mnwnr and rake.
