s.wakc and vigorous young city of
Cottage Grove.
Improvement has been rapid in
the short interval of departure and
a rttli and litntle is met with on
nil sides. A number of fine build
ings have been finished and oc-,
cupied in the interval and many'
more arc in course of. construction !
and rapidly neariiiK completion.
Our new miw mill on the edge of
town is now in full swinsr and turn-
lug out a large compliment of Him-
ber daily, and the mill being built)
n short distance up Mosby creek is,
putting on the finishing touches .
and in about thirty days will be
inr.iii.o r.nt ii miotn of lumber. :
This makes five large saw mills in
active operation in and nbout Cot
tage Grove which are daily turning
out hundred of thousands of feet
ol prime lumber and employing a
large corps of men in converting the
raw material into marketable values
and great wealth.
The new railroad is slowly but
surely spanning the intervening
distance of (hirtyfivc miles between
Cottage Grove and the magnificent
mineral zone of Hohemia. Over
ten miles of this road art; now com
pleted and operated by two daily
trains to lied rock on the Row
river, carrying the bulk of freight
to the. mines and returning with
heavy laden .cars of logs for the
saw mills and hundreds of tons ol
high grade base ores to be for
warded to distant points lor smelt
. lug and refining. A force of men
are clearing the right of way for
the new road through the forest at
', the other end, while other lorces
are blasting out the stumps and
rock cuts and preparing the grade
for the laying of more track.
Development in the Ilohemia
Mining District has made great
strides dutlng the past six mouths
and the activity now prevailing is
bringing the district to the front
with- leaps and bounds. An im
mense amount of work lfas been
and is being done In all sections of
the camp and results are being
realized far beyond the most sail
iuluc expectations.
Mining men from distant climes
are looking toward Hohemia and
the emissaries of capital are seeking
bonds on partly developed prop
erties widi a view to future pur
chase, Values are ranging upward
as the ore bodies are coming to
light, but. splendid properties can
be acquired now for nominal figures
that later on will not be considered
for a moment, The farsighted opes

IKirts the completion of the drill
plant and the .s.nisfoctory working I
ol tlte same. ' Tlie recent outer 01
S.ooo pounds of giant powderhas
arrived at the mine and has been
securely stored for future use. The
new Lcyner drills are starting ofl
well and prove very successful un
der the management of Mr. CHfte;
of Denver. Drifting on tlte ledge
will lie prosecuted vigorously from
now forward. Everything in and
nbout this splendid property is now
tti the best or shape anil tlie tttturc
lias indeed a bright outlook.
One of the fine properties located
on the west side of the Ilohemia I
District and running from the Fair
view creek up the mountain towards
old Ilohemia and Fairview is the
Jtnlson Rock group of nine claims.
This group has three well defined
broad and highly mineralized ledges
running through its entire length,
the central lode being a' coutinun
lion of the famous Muslck lode.
Tunnels and surface openings have
been driven on each of the severgl
claims 'comprising this firottp with
most flattering results. Samples
of the ore taken from the various
workings of this group and sent to
the most reputable nssayers and
metalurglsts of Portland, San Fran
cisco and Salt Lake City give re
turns varying from $151 .60 to $188,
90 per ion. A long tunnel Is now
being started on the central lone a:
the lower end of the group and is
in over 100 feet now the face of.
the. drift being in solid quartz.
which will tap tlie ore Homes ai a
great verticle depth from the rich
surface croppings. As work goes
forward on tills group it will take
its place in the front rank along
with the many now famous prop
erties of Hohemia.
A letter from Secretary Jordan,
of the Crystal Consolidated Com
pany, who is now at the mine, gives
n most glowing account of the work
now being driven and the result
showing up. The main tunnel on
the Mountain I.iou claim is now in
oet 150 feet on the ledge and in
high grade quartz, the entire length
A crosscut has just been made
showing ten feet of solid ore with
values much increased as depth is
attained. A large force is con
stantly at work and the progress
being made and volume and values
of ore being encountered are very
satisfactory to the management.
New and commodious bunk aud
boarding houses have' been com
pleted for winter occupancy and all
is now in readiness for continuous
work.' Large beanis. for the new
mill are being gotten out and the
frame work will be in readiness by
the time the machinery shall have
arrived. The Crystal is surely
destined to be one o( the great
rolue&of Bohemia in the near future.
Renorts from the Sunrise groups
are verv flatterintr and work is
mil South I jixtcni a i
being energetically proseiu'ril.
The Hohemia Gold Mining Cora-,
pany, under the management of.
lieo. v. Lloyd, is doing extensive
.work 011 the Gold Cross and Ho
hemia Girl claims, with flattering
results. On the west slope of
Noonday ridge over 500 feet of
tunnel has been run ou the ledge
in continuous milling'orc from start
to finish. Ou the north side of the
ridge, a tunnel 100 feet long has
been driven, which gives the oper
ators a much greater depth than at
ths former workings.. Alnrce
bunk and cook liou.se has been
erected and every precaution is
being- made for continuous work
throughout the winter.
Prospectors are daily coming
into town with rich specimens
from new fields in every -ection ol
the district.
llxhlblt At liURenc.
The exhibit of ores from the Ho
hemin District at the Carnival
grounds at Eugene last month was
both extensive aim orustic. con
siderable attention was attracted by
the manner in which the large
amount of ore was arranged to
catch tlie eye of the mining man.
It could not have been better ar
ranged, and the committee in charge,
Mr. Mel Watuer and Mr. Herbert
Leigh, arc to be congratulated on
the excellent result of their labors.
The exhibit represented a relief
mnn of the district uivinc all the
mountains and canyons correctly,
each property beingsbuilt up of ore
trom tue mine It represenieu. un
it! the booth were the various pros
pectus of the Bohemia companies
lor free distribution. This exhibit
was pne Bohemia can well be proud
of, thanks to the enterprising men
interested in property there and the
untiring efforts of the couiuiiuee in
charge.
Let the good work go on brethren,
and never let up on advertising Bo
hemia pr at least in putting its ores
where they can speak for them
selves in the interests of this great
district. For every, dollar you
spend in development 'work, spend
another one for advertising. One
is as important as the other in a
district like Bohemia where it takes
money to get the yellow stuff out.
Bohemia An Extensive District.
Richard White came down from
Bohemia Monday returning Wed
nesday. He reports everything
looking fine up there this fall and
says many interesting things' about
that great mining district. Mr.
White has a group of five claims on
FairvlewCr'eek about a mile north
of the Benson hotel in v hich he
has great hopes for the future.
According to his investigations and
those of others with whom we have
talked, the Bohemia Mining Dis
trict is much more extensive than
is supposed by those not familiar
with the district and we will not be
at all surprised if 'within a fev
short venra ierrit6rv. now con
sidered Cut of the district will be
scene of active raining operations.
