THE LUMBER BUSINESS.
Talk with President EccIes, of the
Oregon Company.

President Eccles Of the Oregon
Lumber company was in the city yes
terday on special business connected
with the company. He was seen at
the Deseret National bank By Herald
reporter and to the latter stated that
the mills of the company located at
Baker City. Oregon, and in the noun
tains in that neighborhood would re-
sumo the cutting of lumber some time
during the coming month. There is
still a large amount of lumber on hand
awaiting a market but the company
is not pushing sales for the reason that
the supply is becoming more dry as
each month passes and therefore more
valuable. Several large contracts are
now being supplied with lumber and
ties by the company. The Sumpter
Valley railroad operated by Mr.. Eccles'
company, which runs up into the noun
tains from Baker City for the purpose
of tapping the vast timber lands, is
still open and great quantities of saw
timber are being piled up at Baker
ready for the coming run. The future
prospects of the lumber business are as
promising as are those of any other
class of trade.

Frank Hines Says the Whole Dis
trict is Snow Bound.

lEACl II cnON Do0AUs
Ex-Supervisor Haines has returned
from Mercur, and reports that the camp
and the district are simply snow bound.
Under existing conditions, prospecting

that are really opened are doing any
thing. Frank thinks the camp has a
great future, but says that men who go
out there at this time on the chance
Of getting work will make a mistake.
He advises all such to wait until spring
opens, when there viii be a good chance
for everybody.

INSURANCE BUSINESS.
Some Companies Threaten to With
draw From the West.

The hard times and heavy fire losses
are having their effect upon the fire
insurance companies and a number
threaten to withdraw from western
business, while the indications are that
quite a number will also withdraw
from any business whatever. At pres
ent the Milwaukee Mechanics Of St.
Paul is allowing its western policies TO
run out and the Westminster of New
York is withdrawing from Utah bust
ness. Both of these companies have
written heavy business in this terri
tory, this being especially the case
with the latter, which is considered to
be one of the strongest American COM
panies. It is said that within few
weeks, or months at the farthest, the
local agents of number of other COM
panies viii receive intelligence that
their companies do not desire to write
western business.

4. WORTHINGTONM MILLS
Pushed to the Front of the Pop
NJ ular Mills of the State.

|
It is very gratifying to the people
of Worthington and Mobiles county to
note the success Matteson Bros. are
meeting with in their efforts to turn
out a superior grade of -four. The
product of these mills has been
thoroughly tested since they assumed
management, and not word of COM
plant has been heard. All the mer-
chants here handle their flour, and
many of them say it is the best seller
they ever put on the market. Their
fancy patent is the whitest and best
grade of -four that has been han
died in this town for years. In fact
no better -four is made anywhere, not
excepting the product of the famous
mills of Minneapolis. Worthington
can congratulate itself in securing
Messrs. Matteson to take charge of
the mills. They have five years
lease, and at the expiration of that
time will no doubt purchase the plant.
The mill is one of the best in this part
of the state-is thoroughly equipped
in every department, and has ca
pacity of 100 barrels per day. The
fame of the Worthington mills will
soon extend beyond the limits of the
state.
