Very Rieh Mines.

Ex-GOv. Chadwick has returned
from OkanOgan, northwest ofW. T.,
and about forty miles from the
British line. He has only land
interests there but he is profoundly
convinced of the richness of the
mines there. Old California, Ari-
iona and Nevada miners say that the
developments and promise, with
the present amount of work done,
never were exceeded anywhere.
Railroads are being pushed through,
and people are rapidly settling up
the country.

The JOURNAL and the public are
under obligations to Mr.. T. Pearce,
of Eola, for full weather report for
the past month. Such compila-
tlons from careful observation
systematically made are much more
satisfactory than vague guesses or
general statements. They carry
weight with readers abroad who
want to know the truth about our
climate.

Where there is so much smoke
there must be some fire, says the old
adage. And though John f. Mil
ler's house was not burnt down yes
terday, as was early in the day re-
ported, that Of Mrs. Daniel Clark,
six miles south of Salem, on the
Turner road, was destroyedby the
devcuring element. Mrs. Clark was
a mile and half from the residence,
helping a neighbOr to cook, for
threshing crew, when 1t
unaccounlably burst into flames.
Another threshing crew, nearer at
hand, perceiving the fire, did all in
their power, and succeeded in saw
ing the organ and little else. The
loss will be nearly covered by insur-
ance. Miss Clark and brother were
i'm town, attending school.
