Messrs. Masterson and Sehr are now at their quarters, preparatory
to doing the assessment work on the Napanee group, the first of January.
It is the intention of the owners to do considerable development work
the coming year.
Papers throughout the Northwest are commenting favorably on Bo
hemia. The mail failed to reach Bohemia postoffice Monday night on ac
count of the recent rise in the various streams on the route.
Bohemia has outlived the day when mining operations stop and
the miners leave the diggings at the approach of winter. It matters
little now so far as the onward push of development work is concerned
whether it rains or shines. The hills are full ofmiuersandthe work goes
on.
It is authentically reported that several gigantic tunnels will be
driven into several properties this coming year with the view of tapping
the ledges at a far greater depth than ever before. This is a move in
the right direction and should be persistently adhered to.
MINING NOTES.
Spokane and British Columbia capitalists are now making prepa
rations to open anew gold mining camp at McCarty Hill, 16 miles from
Baker city. It is authentically stated that an immense ledge carrying
good gold values has been recently traced in that vicinity for several
miles.
The Josephine county mining district is said to contain at this writ
ngmore than 100 hydraulic properties.
A gambling and variety theatrical enterprise for the Cape Nome
district is now under way, to be established next spring. An ex
penditure of $60,000 is said to be involved.
No. 1 Vol 1 of Mines and Metals published by Albert Tozier, well
known in Oregon as a newspaper man, has reached the Nugget table.
It will be issued monthly, and will be devoted to mining interests of
the Northwest. B ohemia Nugget extends congratulations and wishes
Mr. Tozier and his new venture all success.
Mines and Metals says one of the first things Portland should get
on its "ground floor" is a good mining exhibit. Mines and metals is
perfectly correct in the assertion, and it should be composed of speci
mens from every camp in Oregon. Cottage Grove people should take
the thought home with them, and conclude that it would be a good
idea for this city to have a good mineral exhibit from Bohemia.
Oregon's mineral resources seem to be endless and to be branching
out in new directions all the time. Now comes a man from Walker who
has discovered an ochre mine from which he has dug all the colors of
the rainbow, and others. He has painted his barn with the product of
the mine, and finds that it wears better than white lead. The ochre has
been shown to Portland paint-dealers, who say that it is better than the
article which they now import. It is expected that the mine will soon
fee developed, and that it will produce enough ochre to pamt any town

THE WIT THAT WON THE
TEACHER'S WOODCHUCK.
To illustrate the position of one
of the great national parties during
. i r : . . r. .......
a campaign uoiea mr us uiy
partisanship, Mr. Depew tells this
story of the youthful politician and
the woodchuck:
"The tutor in one of the smaller
schools near my native town of
Peekskill had drilled a number of
his brightest scholars in the history
of contemporary politics, and to
test both their faith and their
knowledge he called upon three of
them one day and demanded a
declaration of personal political
principles:
" 'Yen are a republican, J.om,
are you not?'
"Yes, sir.'
" ' And Bill, you are a pro
hibitionist, I believe?'
" ' I am, sir.'
" 'vAnd
crat?''" .
" ' Yes. sir.
" 'Well, no
that can give ms'te .
why he belongs to .his. v
have this woodchuck Tw
caught on my way to schbi
morning.'
" ' I am a republican,' said,
first boy, ' because the republic
party saved the country in the wr
and abolished slavery.' '
"'And Bill, why are yoit a
prohibitionist?'
I'm a prohibitionist,
rattled off the youth' 'because rum
is the country's greatest enemy
and the cause of our overcrowded
prisons and poorhouses.'
" ' Excellent reasons, Bill!' re
marked the tutor encouragingly.
'Now, why are you a democrat,
Jim?' , . ,.
"'Well, sir,' was the slow re
ply, 'I am a democrat because I
want that woodchuck.'
"And he got it, too," added Mr.
Depew. Saturday Evening Post.
