REPORT ON PORTAGE
HAMMOND BRINGS COST WITH
IN $165,000 LIMIT.
Tha Call For Bids Will Be Published
Shortly Three Months to
Complete Boad-
. Ciril Engineer A. E. Hammond haa
made a report of his preliminary survey
of the route of the proposed portage
railway from The Dalles to Celilo. The
report was filed with the board of port
age railway commissioners and contains
a detailed map and chart sliowinjr not
nly the course of the road but the loca
tion and size of all cuts and fills, bridg
es, etc. In addition to the written re
port, Mr. Hammond made a verbal
report in answer to numerous questions
that were asked. His detailed estimate
of the cost of constructing the road will
ot be made public until after bids have
been opened, but it is announced that
kit total estimate brings the cost within
the appropriation, $165,000.
After considering the facts laid before
them by Mr. Hammond, the board di
rected him to proceed at once to secure
rights of way across the lands over
which the proposed route runs, and pre
pare complete plans and specifications
in writing as a basis for an advertise
ment for bids for furnishing the labor
and material necessary for the construc
tion ot the road. The members of the
board were of the opinion that the plans
and specifications can be completed by
the 1st of Sep'tember. The tall for bids
will be published for ten days, when a
contract will be let if a satisfactory bid
is received. Mr. Hammond estimated
that it will not take more than 3J
months to complete the road after the
contract has been let. If all works well
it is therefore probable that the road
will be in operation by the last of Feb
ruary.
BLUE MOUNTAIN COAL.
Producing Mine In Operation
With a
Fine Depotlt.
The addition of coal in the Blue
mountains to the list of products has
opened a new industry in Morrow coun
ty. So quietly has the mine been worked
that little is known by the outside world
of the extensive coal fields cf this sec
tion.
The property, which lies within 21
miles of Heppner, has been developed to
the point of a producer. The latest im
provement at the mine was completed
July 21, in the shape of coal bunkers
with a capacity of 45 tons. At present
men are laying car tracks and centering
their work on tunnel No. 5, which has
proved to be a treat producer.
A crew of 20 men to the shift is work
ing night and day. A 4)j foot vein
shows up in this tunnel and is continu
ally growing larger. Several other veins
are showing up well. The company has
secured the right of way up Willow
t reek oa which to build its railroad and
will undoubtedly get work started on
the road in the near future, as a right of
way can now be secured .through the
town easily. The course the road would
take was hit by the recent flood.
The existence of coal in the Blue
mountains has been known for more
limn 10 vnr. Priwnwhirn hnvfl found
particles of coal in different places along
i ii .i i .i ...i .
me creeK an lurougu me Bouiueasiem
part of Morrow county.
A little over 21 miles southeast of
.Ilennner at the Lend of Willow creek in
Ik Blue mountains, is where the main
uouy or coal lies anu is Known ty me
name of the Willow creek coal fields.
Vhis property is owned and operated by
Heppner people in a company incorpor
ated under the name of the Hoppner
Huilroad and Coal company. The priu
cipal stockholders are D. A. llerren,
V. A. Ilorren, George UonBer and O. E.
lledfield. .
About 20 years ago Frank Maddock,
mi old pioneer, opened a prospect hole
20 miles south ot Heppner and took out
u small quantity of coal. He was never
able to get through the crust of rock, ow
ing to lack of appliances, and therefore
;'Hve up the job. The coal which Mr.
Muddock took out was consumed iu
!Ieppner. This mine gradually tilled
with water and was entirely deserted by
Mr. Maddock. The MatOBons, four in'
number, took up the work where Mr.
Maddoek left off and opened up a tunnel
near the original prospect. For years
they toiled, blasting and picking through
the rock, hoping to find the black dia
mond, but it was of no avail. Hon.
Henry Blackman took up the cause
and grub staked and furnished these
hardy old pioneers with capital for some
tiaie. Today this property is known as
the Black Butte coal mines and is owned
and oporated entirely by local business
men.

sides, no appetite, growing weaker day
by day. Three physicians had give me
up. Then I was advised to use Electric
