The company's 2400-volt elec tric Hub-station Is situated near tho camp to supply power for construction work, and also for the 50-horsepower motor, which generates the compressed air. All the grinding, riveting, drilling, etc., etc., Is done by compressed air. this being a better nnd safer arrangement than electric power. These compressed air hoses can and when were busy all over the camp, It will seem rnther mid to most retildcnlH of Mcdinrd and the val ley that this county a hull century ugo was very much interested in a political campaign, with una or Its residents, the late C.

Hoover 2:1. . . Just how far these figures go toward showing Hoover's strength or weakness among the .farmers is a matter of dispute, but li s a certainly much "so will be mnde of them, one way or another, dur ing lite few weeks still roniaiuuiK before tho nnllonal convention. Some Idea of the expense In volved in tills placer operation the largest ever attempted in this imi'l nt thft rnimtrv mnv hi gleaned from the fact that every limber In this dredge has been hand selected, Is of the llighe.it j cIuhs f!r (Oregon firi without ai knot, or blemish; nearly oil the spikes and rivets and bolts have been made to order, of spoclal shape and dimensions, and alt the steel plates and steel construc tion of the dredge, have been nindo on orlg'nnl specifications. The biff derrick Is an example of the resourcefulness and skill of the Kerry management. This lower ing structure, which can lift a loaded truck as ens ly as a mnn would lift a toothplclc. Is home made. i was constructed on the ground, the main mast and boom being selected trees, cut from the surrounding forest, each 100 feet long and straight as a ship mast. ln two or three months, the dredge will be completed, a 1000- ton ship of steel and tlmhor.' Then tho creek which has been di verted for construction work, will be turned back, the dralnago tlume below will be stopped up. and what Is now n large yawn ing pit w'll be a miniature lake on the surface of which, thlj "Spanish . galleon of the lloguis Itlver Vitlloy" will bo floating, and the voyage after hUtlco treasure will begin. . i The huge ladder at tho prow of the ship, will support an end less chain of 70 steel buckets, and this ludder will poke its nose into the top of tho bank, euting Its way down and down until bed rock is reached. Where the bed. rock looks good, this ladder run go on down into It breakini; it away, and throwing the rocky mass Into tho hopper, where through the force of revolution and water, the gold bearing rock nnd gravel will ho sepiirate-.l from the debris, thex former go ing on the tale sluices, then the gold finding tuble.x, while tho lat ter will be dumpvd by a similar ladder lo the rear from tho stern of the ship. This operation, as wo picture It will bo something like tho op eration of a wheat thresher. All ex-farm hoys remember how they 1 threw n sheaf ot wheat into the thresher, and how straw flew out on one side, and golden ker nels of wheat poured Into u sack on thw other. Well that will be tho way this dredge will perforin, only Instead of straw ami wheat It wilt be debris ot rock and gravel on one side, and goUl nugguts und Euld dust on tile other. So tho dredge will creep on. dny by day and night by night for ten years or more, going down stream and up stream with ciiual fecllity. This is made possible by n system of lock dams, sim ilar to thoao used in a canal truly a marvelous und interesting perfoi ma nee. of.lce before thu election Is held So fur one ballot has heen sent out. but as yet It lias nut been returned.
