The following concerning the two
great companies is published by the
Oregonian; The Oregon Railway
and Navigation Company is building
line from Pendletoh across the
Blue mountains southeast to Baker
City, Oregon. Tho Oregon Short
Line, an enterprise supposed TO be
backed by jay Gould, is building
from Granger, Wyoming, northwest
to d point near Boise City, Idaho.
1t is about one hundred miles from
Baker City to BOISE, and the only
practicable railroad pass SO far
found through the mountain range
between these points is the Burnt
River Canyon, 50 miles southeast OF
Baker City. The Short Line is
seeking tide water in Oregon and
the @, r. & n. wants the southern
Idaho tade. Both want to ge'
through the Burnt River pass. Th.
/ Q. r. & n. made its preliminary sur
vey more than year ago, and flee
the necessary papers with the Score
tary of the Interior. About tire,
months ago part Of the construction
force at work in the Blue mountain
| were sent forward to the cevetet
pass and are now making the grade
Burnt River is stream averagin,
forty feet wide, and in twenty mile
the railroad will cross it forty-fou
times The pass is not wide enougl
for two tracks OH the same level, s
tho Short Line is surveying lin
to run above the o, r. 4 n. Col

Yield of the Mayfower.

The Mayfiower mine, of Bullion,
retained its leading position, this
year, and yielded 800 TONS Of first
class ore carrying an average of 40
ounces silver and about 20 per cent.
lead, valued at about $4,000.
Owing to the lack of transportation
facilities the yield was not half as
large as it might have been, and
several hundred tons Of ore remained
on the dumps. The ore breasts are
in fine shape, and the extraction Of
ore can be resumed as early as de
sired Id the spring,
The Mayfower mine was sold to
Mr., Farwell, the Chicago merchant
prince, and few associates, last
February, for $4,000. If the
present owners had 20 desired, they
could have extracted the entire pur
chase price during the past six
months.-Times.
