l'OR PRESIDENT
WILLIAM McKINLEY
OF OHIO
FOR VICE-PRESIDEKT
THEO. ROOSEVELT
OF NEW YORK.
VTTEliS FA LSEHOODS.
Beginning with the first of the
month, the city took on the air of
business again, after the usual
stagnation not uncommon during
the months of July and August.
This improved condition of affairs
is accounted for in various ways.
In the first place trade is now much
more brisk in farming circles, the
wood business, which is no small
item in this section, is now at its
height, and, most of all, new
activity seems to have taken hold
of the Bohemia district. The re
cent big strikes, including the
Knott property, and in which the
Stocks & Harlow property figures
as one of the greatest in the history
"of mining in the Northwest, seems
to have added new life to the camt. 1

Today Bryan nnd his followers,
who are 1 11 ruing the earth upside
down in their efforts to convince
the voters of this country that the
republican party is beyond re
demotion 111 corruptness, that its
principles aud policies are wrong
and unsafe, are using the utter
ances of the great Lincoln lo their
purpose, aud in every case using
his sayines in a sense foreign to
that intended.
It will be remembered by many
that in the days of the great strife,
that there was not a man on th
face of God s lootstooi wno was
more generally hated by the demo
crats of the country than was
Abraham Lincoln. He was not
only hated but was made the butt
of ridicule, and finally murdered
by democratic assassins. Today
this demagogue Bryan, who is at
tempting to pull himself up to the
presidential chair through influence
emenatmg from those whose
hatred of Lincoln has hardly been
secreted from public gaze, is gallop
ing about the country ranting
about the immortal president, and
how he "viewed with alarm" the
conditions which were gradually
creeping upon this country. When
Bryan makes these statements he
utters falsehoods, made all the moi e
false, in that he knows that what
he says is false. However, the
best way to offset that which this
prating demagogue has to say of
Lincoln is to quote some of the
stuff that went the rounds of the
democratic press opposed to Lin
coln's renomination. Here is one
of the precious extracts, the author
of which no doubt "viewed things
with alarm:"
"Should Mr. Lincoln be re
elected the revolution will be ac
complished. This will be no longer

but a consolidated empire. Every
safeguard must sooner or later give
way. Ine limitations of the ex

in mind, however, that the Music

Musick. which bears the reputa
tation 01 being a dividend payer
from the ground up, comes in fot
its share in bringing about a return
of brisk times. All together, the
outlook for a humming fall and
and winter trade, is most en
couraging.
Candidate Bryan wishes to kuow
whether "the American people are
going to permit the government to
make slaves of the people of the
Philippines?" This is another
foolish utterance of the would-be
president, in.face of the fact that so
long as the people permit this
government to allow such danger
ous anarchists and national agita
tors as WJlliain Jennings Bryan to
run at large and vent his fanatical
ideas, there is no danger of anyone
even being imprisoned for crime,
say nothing of an attempt on the
part of the government being made
to make slaves of any. people.

Such enterprise on the part of the
citizens of any community is highly
commendable aud should be en
couraged. Cottage Grove could
just as well have a street fair or
carnival as any other town or com
munity and why not have it?
The Portland Chronicle perti
nently remarks. "The gold
standard," declared Mr. Bryan in
his Minneapolis speech in 1896,
"would destroy the opportunity to
work." Is Mr. Bryan depending
upon the votes of the idle this
year?

Does anyone today think for a
moment that the re-election of
Lincoln meant disaster to this
country? If not, can we have any
more confidence today in the
prophesies of the same prophets,
who in 1865, declared that the re
election 01 ivincoin meant the de
struction of 'their priceless Consti
union ana union.' jnoi It is
the same old story, the devil -quoting
scripture to suit his own purpose.
BOHEMIA STOCK.
Last Tuesday, according to the
Oregonian, 287,950 shares of stock
were sold on the Portland Board,
of which 153,000. were of the Mu
sick Mining and Milling Co., which
were offered for sale for the firs'
time that day, the Helena, Helena
No. 2, and the Oregon-Colorado
Mining, Milling aud Development
Co., of Bohemia district, in the
following order:
Musick. 123,450 at :o
Helena No. 2 14,000 at 7
Helena 9,000 at 32
This speaks loud and clear for
Oregon mines and especially for
Bohemia district, while for the la-
mous old Musick there is no better
recommendation, proving that all
that has been said of the property
is well founded. The Musick has
always behaved nicely, having
never been worked at a loss to its
owners; and the stock which is now
upon the board will go like hot
cakes and double in less than
thirty days. Speaking of the sale
of the Musick stock, the Oregonian
says:
The stock of the Musick Mining
& Milling Company, one of the
best-known properties in the Bo
hemia district, was placed on sale
at the Oregon Mining Exchange
yesterday, and 123,450 shares were
sold during the first call at 10 cents
per share. This is an extraordi
nary showing, and is an indication
that Portland people will invest in
good properties. It must be borue I
Corvallls Times.
Professors Eu'toi) and Skelton re
turned Wednesday from the Bo
hernia mines. They brought back
a large quantity of ore specimen
and made arrangements for secur
intr other materials from the mines
for use in the O. A. C's School o
Mines. The samples secured when
spread out, are sufficient to cover
an area fourteen feet square. Some
of them are very fine. One piece
assays $12,000 per ton. It is from
a newly discovered mine that
promises great returns. The vein
was found but a few weeks ago
nother specimen assays $3,000
per ton.
The Bohemia mines are local cd
forty miles east of Cottage Grov
and are not climcuit ol access.
i bey are at an altitude of 5.250
feet. The peak in which they are
located is 6,800 feet high. The
district is twelve miles square, and
the deposits are so well marked
that they can, in many instances
be traced lor miles. The great
body of the ores make an average
yield of about $25 per ton. The
chief drawback is the lack of capi
tal and transportation facilities
After the ores are concentrated, it
costs $10 per ton to get the product
transported to the railroad at Cot
tage Grove. It costs an additional
$5 per ton to haul it to the smelter
at Tacoma. There an additional
$5 for smelting foots up a round
$20 per ton that the miners must
pay, to say nothing of the expense
of getting the cres out of the
mountain.
ineoiggest mine in the camp
has six tunnels, all of them
thousand feet or more into the
mountain. The ores in all the
mines are rich iu minerals of many
kinds, and in time will be sure to
become paying properties. Of the
permanency of the camp there is no
doubt.
The college men were received
most kindly by the miners, and
were afforded every facility for
pursuing their investigations. This
is seen in the fact that the samples
brought home to O. A. C, all do
lialed by the miners, represent an
aggregate value of about $200,
Profs. Skelton and Fulton leave at
once for Sumpter, where they will
contiuue their work in the mines
of Baker county.
