Large Tracts of Rich Land Soon to Be Reclaimed by Irrigation Ditches Under Carey Act Contracts Being Constructed. In writing of the wonderful re sources of Central Oregon, the staff correspondent of tne Oregonlan, who accompanied President Mohler of the O. n. & N., from Portland to the Bend and Deschutes districts last week, says: From Prlnevllle the party drove to uunu, uescniues or I.ytle, the three townsltcs Joining each other about 30 miles southeast of Prlnevllle The greater part of the 30-mlle drive was through juniper timber, some of the largest specimens of this tree being nearly flvo feet In diameter. Rut lit tle farming has been do-ie lu this section except up near tie hills, but there are a number of clearings mad did the regulation "box" house which the squatters all build alike Is In evidence onevery hand, Will Be Irrigated. Most of this land Is schoij'.el for Irrigation, but some very g .ol fields ot rye which have grown without water show .that Irrigation is not in dispensable. Neaj- Bond, tho Pilot Butto Development, Companv has commenced" work on a big dltcli which will Irrigate a tract of S",. O.i acres. Ono or two smaller companies are working nt different points on this side of tho r'ver wi : 111 nt Dps chutes, tho Columbia Southern IrrU gation Company will soon bo ready to put the water on a portion of their 3i),000 acres secured undir the Carey act. This land is selling very rapid ly, and an enormous immigration is expected as soon as tho ditches are completed. Lytic, the first of tho trio of towns on the banks of tho Deschutes, has no government build' lugs, but Bend has a land oince and Deschutes lias a postofflce. two sa. loons, a meat market and a hotel. Bend also has a hotel and a sawmill, and all three of the towns have pros pects and Issue prospectuses. Fine Timber 'Belt Near Bend. It was at Bend, and In the timber region contiguous thereto, that tho railroad men found more immediate business for a railroad than is offer, ing nt any other point visited. Tho timber belt of (ho Deschutes region embraces over 3,000,000 acres of mag nificent yellow pine, vast quantities 01 which are directly tributary to Bend, and which can be taken out at a very low cost on account of the ease with which logging can be con ducted. There Is immense power ,for mills In the river, anu most ot tho timber is owned ly men who' are financially able to put in plants of immense sibe. These Umber men have put so much money li)to the country, and the demand for yellow pine at high prices is so .great, that If no other opportunity is offered them they will most certainly com plete their plans uy building a rail road themselves. It is this timber belt that will prove the greatest mag net in drawing a railroad, through from "Shanlko to Bend, and the town winch becomes the headquarter o me Industry will some' nay blossom into a good-sized ehy.

The quartz strike on Baby Koot, a tributary of the Chetco river, made a few weeks ago by John B, Griffin and Ben Miller, is developing into an immense proposition. The ledge is traceable on tho surface for some 1500 feet. Its width Is not yet as certained but is certainly enormous. Tho 'rock carries ihlgh values and a considerable portion of the gold Is free. The niine Is named the "ijst Mule." from tho manner ot its discov ery, the prospectors being guided to tho spot by following the trail of ono of' their pack animals which had strayed away. P-oguo IUver Courier. I A Tale of Two Cities. A story of, lo,ve and riot Is told by tho Chanute Blade. A crowd of Iola young fellows visited Chanute. Ono of them spent the evening with a fair damsel and ha was watched by tho Change Joverl of this damsel. "When," says tho Blado, "the Iola lover came out with the kl6es of 'lils sweetheart still warm upon his lips lie was set upon by a crowd of fellows rallied by the Chanuto young man." Then tho Iola crowd came to the res cue ot their companion, and for a timo it looked as though blood would flow. However, jeace was socured by tho interruption of outsiders,, and the incident closed with this friendly and complimentary noto by the Blade: "It seems" Incomprehensible that a sensible young woman would chooso an awkward gawk from Iola to an elegant and good looking 'Chanute young fellow, but there is nover any telling what a girl will do in a love affairs."
