MIR. Willard said in a speech deIiv-
cred after his return to Portland:
"The Northern Pacific lines will be
pushed forward with the utmost ener.
gy during the coming year. The gap
between the two ends, that is, between
the Yellowstone valley and the Clark's
fork of the Columbia river, is to-day
reduced to less than 500 miles. We
are confident of being able to build
800 miles from this side eastward, and
about the same mileage from the other
side west ward during the coming year,
50 that that there will be gap of not
much over ITO miles left. You can
absolutely rely upon the completion of
the main line of the Northern Pacific
in 1888"

MATT GRAHAM. writing from Atlanta
g the Mining Record, gives i very
complete DESCRIPTION Of the mines &c
that district. Among other things he
says the Buffalo and Idaho company's
Claim consists of 500 feet on the At
'ansa lode. 1t is estimated that thu,
claim has produced over $500 900 in
bullion since 1871 The Character Of
the ore is identical with that found in
the Monarch claim; considerable de-
velopments lave been made on the
Claim, and they are now ia ore of
great richness. The next ground
west from the Buffalo and Idaho com
pany Consists of 1900, and is owned
oy various parties. No development
has as yet been done upon this ground
out the annual representative labor
along the course Of these claims show
them to BIZ as rich in mineral aud AZ
extensive as those on the Monarch, and
Buffalo and Idaho. The next claim
On this lode, running west, consists of
$500 feet, and is owned by the Bnff.-
10 and Atlanta company, Of New York.
The developments consist of a tunnel
l.4O0 feet in length, where the lode
was cut at depth Of about 900 feet
from the surface. The ore was found
to be of good grade where tho lode
was cut, and the company intend the
erection Of reduction works durin
the next season, as some of the ma.
chinery for that purpose is already
upon the ground. On the same hill
and adjacent to the Monarch claim is
located the Last Chance mine. This
claim consists of 1900 feet linear
measure, along the course of the ledge
and was purchased during the past
summer by party of New York gen
temen. The vein is about three feet
wide and will all pay to mill. A large
amount Of ore has been extracted by
the former owners and found to yield
principally in gold from 500 to 5000
per ton. The claim has been worked
by the former owners from a tunnel
opening about twothirds of the loca-
ton to the depth of $50 feet. The
company has purchased a ten-stamp
mill ut the mouth of Quartz gulch, on
which force Of men are now at work.
