Gilliam County People Getting Rostlesa. About to Take Bull by Horns and Build Road Themselves. After yoart of waiting for foreign capi tal to come In and solve the problem of mil communication botween the big w heat ileitis of Central and Southern milium county and the Columbia river, Uilliain county people are beginning to get weiiry and are about to take the bull by the horn and solve tliit most im portant question In their own way and by their own efforts. For ycart they huve been watching and wailing for a branch of the O. U. & N., for a spur of the Columbia Southern, fore line built by the Portage people and for sundry and divers other "proposed" railroad projects, all of which have promptly and In turn "faliud p connect" and alto to relievo the tension undur which the (armor struggles In trying to market a big wheat crop before another harvest catchet him. The old fable of the quails and the farmer will bo found aprgpot in title connection. The quail family lived in the farmer's wheat field and the wheat was ripe, The young quails heard the farmer and hit -ton plan to have their relatives, their nelghlxirtor their friends (oiiio and cut the grain, and the young stvrt were frightened and wanted to move. The wise old mother quail quiet ed their fears,-however, and said there was no hurry about going. But one morning, when the farmer was heard saying to hit ton, "Those follows are not going to harvest our wheat for us, to we must do It ourselves, and at once," the old bird laid to the little ones, "Now, children, we had better hustle. These fellows menu business." So with Gil- liam.county railroad projects. As long At the people depend on outside capital there It no need in anyone being tcared about having to move bit house off the right-of-way, but when a big community of wealth producer get (0 tired hanling -10 cent wheat from 40 to CO -mile thro' mud and rain and cold that they begin to believe they can build A railroad of their own to connect their wheat fields with the market of the world, it begin to look at though something it going to be done. For tho last few day there hat been considerable agitation of this plan of the people building their own railroad and many of our most conserve tiveand responsible ciluaus have ex pressed theinselve at believing the project to be a perfectly practicable and rational one. It It believed that tulll- clent itock can readily be told in this county to complete 10 or 20 mile of the road, and, that much accomplished, it would bo en easy matter to float bonds and complete tho line. So far a tbe Oioui ran learn, every man who has been approached favors tho proposition, and it seems that all that I now needed to cause the project to assume a tangible form it for our people to agitate it talk it up. K very body can do something to help such a project Along. If you can not buy 1000 worth of itock, you can say the project it a good one, and that we can't afford to be without the road ; or to quote the "nub" of one ofl.incolu's stories: "If you can't skin you can hold leg," Let everybody pull together on this project and the first thing we know we will have A railroad company incor porated that will inoaii business, with a bigl).

Johnson, of North port, Wash., president and vice- president, respectively, of the Rossland Consolidated Mining Co., are here this eck in the interest of their company. Mr. Johnson is an old maiden! of Ore gon, naving been lor a nuinoer ol years ngsged in the newspaper business at Tillamook, To a GwriK reporter the ther day Mr. Johnson stated that the property of his company consist of seven claims containing in ail 140 acres. Upon ertch claim there it a well defined lo of mineral, the seven lodes tggre- ating about ICOO feet of ore. Tbe loca- on of the claims, Mr. Johnson says, is peculiarly adapted to successful mining operations nt a minimum cost, as the odes are ail being developed by tunnels li it-li are located at the bottom of a uep gorge or canyon which cuts through the mountains of that region, and which is 3000 feet deep. This gives the owners an immense amount of ore above the tunnel level which can bo extracted at trilling cost, a compared witli hoist ing it through a shaft to the nnper sur face. A fine stream of water runt through the canyon which, it is staled, ill furnish all tbe electrical power that ill ever be required to one rale the mines. Hie claims are covered with a fine growth of timber, which is an im portant factor in the development and operation of a great mine, at all the necessary timbers and lumber ran lie secured right on the ground At the mere coat of cutting. The mines are located abon 3 miles from North port, one mile from a rail road line and 4,'j miles from a smelter now in course of construction. This it f prime importance, at tho character of all tbe ore is base and requires smelt ing to extract the values, and as base lodes are considered by alt mining men to be much better propositions tooperate than free milling ones on account of their greater permanency and the fact that they almost invariably increase in alue with depth, tbe owners of this property feel confident, Mr. Johnson tayt, that they have a bonanza. Mr. Johnson showed at specimens of native copper ore which, he tayt, assayt J3-J.O0 per ton ; grey copper, carrying gold and copper which assays flO.00, and silver Just Saved His Life.
