Gold Notes,
From Various District ii
Unioii County,
TVALLOAYA MINES AJfH MINE US,
Tlio I'lnland Emplrft" nt Spcn by tho
Portland Standard.
THE PIXE CKEEK WAQOX ROAIJ.
No newj of importance has been re
ceived this week frojn tho Pino creek
district. Work on the various mines
is progressing, and thero seems to be
no abatement in tho travel to and from
the mines.
Tlio following concerning the Wal
lowa mines is taken fron the Chictain:
"Work is still being pushed for
ward cutting through t ie Hoval Pur
ple ledge. A tmiM'-l nineteen feet has
lieen run across tlio vein, twenty feet
from tin-surface, and tlio miners are
not yet through tho ledge. Messrs.
Dean & Martin, the owners, consid
er their fortune found, and U really
does look like it "am n fact.'
D. McCullcy, K, II. Ingalls, h. .T.
Backer, John andS. 12. King went to
the Silver Ario mine, on llurrican
creek last week and brought down sev
eral thousand pounds of ore from the
hundred foot level, which will be
shipped, for smelting, in a few days.
Mr. McCully says if the Silver Arie
does not "pan out" well there is not
a mine in these mountains that will.
The latest return from the Alpine
mine is $407. Gf in cilvcr, $9.80 in
gold and 10 per cent, copper to the
ton. This assay is from McVicker, of
suit Lake City, who is perfectly rclia
hle. The Alpino is about tW.o feet in
width, between well defined walls and
tho oro is of a grey copper variety. It
has every appearance of making tlio
richest silver mine on tlio coast.
Vork will he commenced upon It at
once and the oro shipped ns fast as ta
ken out. "We hilly believe that- tho
mountains lying south of Wallowa
'on tains the richest and most exten
sive inincial belt in the known world,
and that before ai'othcr year this coun
try will witness tin! greatest mining
boom flic coast has had for ycar."
The Portland Standard in an article
relative to the Pine creek mines, has
the following in our behalf, whjoh
will be remembered, to its advantage
hyour citizens :
"Anything pertaining to the develop
ment of tliu Pine creek region must be rc
gardc.l by far-seeing and sagacious Port
land people as a matter of vital importance
to tyis city. All reports show that the re
gion possesses untold riches which will
soon be developed by the capital now find
ing its current turned in that direction.
Our pcoplo have not until lately dreamed
of wliat the inland empire would one day
amount to, consequently have taken no
steps to stem the tide, of discontent and
growing 111 feeling. But we cannot simply
remain on our backs any more, and we
mu3t not treat with cold indifference our
neighbors over the divide, or they will have
it within the scope of their powers to re
taliate on us with an effect which will be
felt for all timi. Thjs city no longer holds
ae'.uit3l ni).ti;joa ths eastern part of
the state so far as furnishing supplies and
capital are concerned. Two great systems
of railroads now traverse that region, and
ratcslhave been reduced to a minnium to
induce traffi; toward the cast. Our mer
chants do not dread their California com.
petitars so much as they do those of St.
Paul, Om iha and Chicago. To retain the
iiiaraadn? tradj of tin wonderfully fertile
and productive region east of the moun
tains,' oitr mere.hrnts must rub the film
from their eye, take tho cricks of n'on
chalanco out of their backs and do some
active rustling, or else their names will be
Dennis in the plural. It becomes a mat
tor of the utmost concern that we extend a
helping hand and evince a generous feel
lng.tow.ird our eastern neighbors, and any
thing whioh interests them should receive
a slmro' of our attention, 'ihsro is a tine
opportunity now offered for our men of
capital to show their liberality and co-operative
concern jn the matter of the Pjnc
creek mines. With pleasure wo note the
course pursued so far in this direction by
the board of trade of this city. The pil
grimage of General Tannatt has. not been
devoid of issue. That gentleman selected
routes (o tho mines which are mutually
a.'jji'ib t3 all, and all that report shows
is wanted is for a road to be built Into the
mines from the point at which tho roads
from the different trade centers converge,
The distance is from fifteen to twenty miles.
If thi3 road is built the mining region, is
easy of access, and consequently its valuo
would begreatly enhanced. It will require
not nioro tlpii) $ir,0Q to construct such a
nu 1. This city or the state should furnish
tlit suti. Simafor Itinehart of Union
county informed us yesterday that he in
tended to introduce a bill as early as FlossI
ble at the coming session of the legislature
for the state to mako an appropriation of
?p,0)3 for the construction of the road
from tits Lilly Whlge mine at tho junction
of the roads, from Union and Uaker City,
into the heart of the PInu creek district,
This wPI give an opportunity to the mem
bars from Multnomah county to show their
friendship for the scheme. If the state ap
proprlat: the inonoy, ho hoard pf trade
will he rolievo.l of tho obligation. The
Pins cretlc mines will support ten tlious
an I men for year to come, and wo want
tli9iiiony t j remain in this stats. If some
aid Id not jsiven by the jteoplo hero, surely
eatttcrn biuiutws men will take advantage
of the ohnuca and secure a firm foothold.
In fact v her a inaveuient in on foot now
to construct a road from the iiilnen down
to Iluiitiniftuu, and tluii open up a wuy
toward the Oregon Khort Line, and allow
Omaha toieeurotho trade of the minus.
Wo trut our legislators will not allow such
a c jiwumwation,"
