Mr. Williams, the Chicago photo Wilt, wa at Provolt this week gathering photographs to enlarge. Before leaving be secured a number of order. The dance given at William Fri day night for the benefit of the base ball team of Provolt was uot very largely attended on account of so much work. At the present time haying ia 111 full blast aud everybody is tired at night and don't fuel like dancing. The Golden Spike quarts mine changed hand this week, Cattlin & Co. having bought out the right aud title of the Bailey Bro. They in tend to start work noon. This mine is 011 the Applegate and half a mile from Rice and Ilnniiuin'a property on Democrat hill. The mine wa dis covered a short time ago and uot much levelnjiment work has been done. The Slim Henry quartz olaim ha been boided in Bnniboo gulch to an '.intern company for 1 1 0.000. This property was discovered three year igo and proved to be of good value, i'lie vein is fust in width aud as says well. The new company expect to put a lorce of men at woik soon, running a tunnel on the vein whkli will tell whether it ia a pocket vein or ledge. Iistur Lay ton of William moved lo Provolt this week to take the 1 lace ol his brother, Ed I-uytou, a fore man in the placer mine owned by J. L. Luyton In Farris gulch. There ire now at work three men who probably will bo employed till November, If nothing further -pre vents, Hi upper ditch extends 32 mile around the mountain and head in the Grayback mouutian, while hi lower ditch Is about 83 miles in length total length, (17 mile, which is longer than any other two ditches in Oregon. The Bonn of Contention mine has made a rich find. Last week they run into a ledge three feet ill width iml it I apccklud with gold. From the last report received Friday, we cannot tell yet whether it is a pocket ir a permanent ledge. They are in tome SaO feet and have tapped the vein 300 foot iu depth. We hope it will turn out to be another Green back, for the benefit of the laboring men of Southern Oregou. The Will lams valley is noted for its richnoss in placer mines. There wa old Williamsburg; this property wa worked out in early days, but it out put wan enormous, and wan mostly linirU gold. Thin gold ha come from Homo quartz 'edge and we be lievo it in tho Bouu of Contention mine. A few of the joung folks of Provolt left Sunday for Pastern Oregon, wlmre they intend to work in the hay field during the summer. These young geiitlmeu have gone to that part of Oregon to work for tho pant five years They get 3 per day and board, which in much better than the wnge of this valley and much longer jobs. They get to work from 00 to 75 dayn, which is about 4j days longer than haying hero. The crowd cousinled of Georire Fields, the Provolt baseball catcher. Fields, Bill Jolies and Thomas Car ter. They will return to Provolt thl full ngaiu, if nothing prevent. A worl for the Courier not because I am a corropsondeiit, but because am a reader of that paper.
