CRUDE OIL FOUND IN Considerable Activity Sbowa on Old aa Marion County People are Much Bx- cited by the Discovery. Gold Hill— The Condor Power A Mining company is placing a new steel wagon bridge across Rouge river just below the Ray dam at Gold Ray. L. T. Pock man, representing San Francisco capital, has bought the Hawkeye American Mining claim in the Willow 8prings mining district, and has moved a complete mining out fit out to camp with a small force to commence development on the prop erty. ___In near vicinity to this property Ro bert Allison and associates have taken a lease and bond on the Schump mine and are cleaning out and retimbering the old tunnel, from which, the own ers, a few years ago, took out several thousand dollars in free milling ore. The Lucky Bart mine, on Sardine creek, has been leased to J. W. Hays and partners, who are now doing con siderable development work. J. M. Patrick has taken a year’s lease on the Braden mine, two miles east of town, and ip working quite a force o f men on same. W hile repairing and fitting up the ten-stamp m ill now on the property he has leased the Bowden m ill at Gold H ill, through which he will run Borne 200 or 300 tons of Bia- den ore. This mine has produced large quantities of pay ore in the past; and as Or. Ray has been steadily ex ploiting and blocking out ore in this property for the past five years it now faas immense ore reserves in sight, suf ficient to keep the present ten-stamp m ill running a number of years. The large ore bodies in this mine, in places from 1 to 20 feet in width, are found and opened to a depth oi be tween 400 and 500 feet, thus adding another case to refute the old and well- established theory that there are no thing but “ pocket mines” in 8outhem Oregon. Messrs. Simons and Hawley are prospecting E. E. Miners’ placer ground on Earns creex with a view of demonstrating its adaptability for dredging purposes, and are meeting with very flattering results. Salem— There is yet a remote possi bility that oil may be struck in Marion county, as the most recent discoveries would seem to indicate. At the town of. Pratuma, about 10 miles from 8alem, three lean old well in the near of the home and blaoksmith shop owned by the Rice Bros. This well has been abandoned for several months because it “ roared,” that is, made a noiae like the sound heard in a seashell, and becauae the water did not taste good. A few days ago one of the Rice brothers le ts bucket down into well, and when hepulled It up he was surprised to find that there was about half an inch of erode petroleum floating upon the top of the water. The incident has created quite a stir in the neighborhood, and it is quite probable that atepa Till be taken in the near future toward the sinking of a well for the purpoee of securing oil in paying quantities. - - ai._. — — n ew rropcriiCB. Oreogn City— Unless there is a good rain in Clackamas county within the ensuing few days, fall sown crops will be largely a failure. In some sections rain would not be beneficial at this time, the prolonged drouth having al ready done its work. Late sown oats and potatoes, which constitute two of the principal crops produced in Clacka mas county, have already suffered ex tensive damage, while it is estimated that not more than 50 per cent of a hop crop can be expected unless there is rain during the coming week. Momoe— On the ranch ol James E. Edwards, a pioneer residing near here, stands a mammoth Royal Anne cheiry tree, which has been for many years am object oi wonder to visitors and to strangers passing along the road near which it stands. The tree is 9 feet 3 inches in circum ference at the butt.' Four feet above the ground it divides into three branches, one of which is four feet in circumference, another 4 feet 6 inches, another 6 feet 4 inches. The branch measuring 6 feet 4 inches divides into two branches, one being 4 feet 4 inches in circumference, another 3 feet, the smallest branch mentioned being as large as an ordinary tree at the butt. The tree is 50 feet high and its wid est branches cover a space 46 feet in di ameter. It is 60 years old, and for several years has yielded a fruitage of 200 gallons per annum. Soon to Be County S eat. La Grande— At the regular session of the Union county court, held last week, it was decided to remove the county seat from Union to La Grande September 3. La Grande business men furnished a bond agreeing to build the courthouse at La Grande free of cost to the county for $25,000. A certified transcript of the result ot the vote on the county seat location has also been forwarded under the seal of the clerk to the secretary of state, and the removal will be made within the next 60 days. Baatern Oregon M ills Busy. La Grande— All lumber companies in Eastern Oregon are running their mills on full time, and orders are pil ing up for fmit boxes.
