DEVELOPMENT The Grizzly tunnel has crossed a point vertical with the shaft on a six-foot ledge. The
rock formation is dipping into the hill, but at a steep angle, so that unless a change in formation occurs, only a
very short distance will have to be traversed to reach the ledge. Several stringers, evidently offshoots of the
main ledge, have been encountered in the tunnel during the past week.
' To meet cost of development, the sales of Treasury Stock will continue v
at SIX CENTS per share, payable all cash, or on the install
ment plan in twelve monthly payments.

Discovered in the Standard, Located on
Dixie Crwk.
Perhaps me of the most Interesting
mineral discoveries made in eastern Ore
Kon is that of a fiuir-foot vein of cobalt.
I his decovery was recently made In the
property ot thr Standard MIiiIiir company,
composed of Portland people, which is
openhiK ip a promising IrdKe, carrying
Kold, copper and silver on Dixie creek.
As lar as known, this is the only dis
covery of extensive cobalt deposits made
in the state. The question that confronts
the company owning this property, Inw
ever, is where to tind a market for this
metal. While cobalt is used extensively
In the aits and in the manufacture of dyes,
produciiiK a biiitht purple coloring matter,
Us use iscunliued almost exclusively to
Europe. In this country there is but one
manufactuiiiiK plant using oxide of cobalt
change, has just returned from a flying
trip to eastern Oregon. He predicts
lively times for the various camps in that
section this fall and winter. In the
Quartzburg district Mr. Gibbs says actual
mining is assuming wonderful proportions.
P. P. Morey has commenced work on the
Present Need group that he bought from
W. E. Gifford. The Jackson property
has been sold to Portland and Pendleton
people, wlio will push work at once. The
Yankee Boy group, owned by A. W.
Dunn, has the most development, and
large bodies of gold ore are blocked out.
Mr. Dunn Is now erecting ore bins. The
Copperopolis has just erected buildings to
accommodate 50 men. and completed over
a mile of road. The owners have a large
amount of surface work done, and exten
sive ore bodies are exposed. They are
now surveying for patent; Work is also
commenced on a tunnel to cut the vein at
450-foot depth. Mr. Gibbs says there are
