We learn with regret that Mrs B 7

learn Of the death of Frank Cecil, who

The Dalles business men evidently
have faith in Gillian county, Judging
from the way they have turned them-
selves loose lately. We learn that they
have also bought Chas Weuncr's stock
OF merchandise. The public will be the
gamer in cheap prices-for awhile, at
least.
The road supervisors have all received
time hooks for their respective districts,
which makes it look like the taxpayers

IL that is the law they might as well
make all they can out Of their offices, for
II looks like il would be the last year for
i the taxpayers--and officers too.

he will duplicate the Jones proposition

the more precious products Of the rocks
tinctly In California, when the gold fe-
yer was at it's height. miners threw up
several fairly good specimens Of dia-
monds. .but in their erase for the yellow
metal they paid no attention to the pre-
cious stones. They knew all about gold
mining, but nothing about diamonds.
Now that the gold fields have been ex-
hausteo, I guess many of them wish
they had stopped and pocketed some of
the precious stones they threw away.
II we made a. thorough preparation
for diamond mining as they do in South
Africa, we would find this country much
richer in materials than anybody anti
cipates. A company has recently been
organized to develope the mines Of pre-
cious stones in the south, and 1t has
number of ngents in the field making
examinations. They will include in
their work all of the precious stones,
diamonds, cmeralds, sapphires. beryls,
garnets and every other gem of any
value. They will be provided with the
proper machinery. and not with coal
and gold mining implements. 1t is oil
wrong TO suppose that coal or gold
miner would unearth the precious
stones If they happened to be in the
mountains. The precious stones are not
always found where the gold and coal
fields are located. 1t needs distinct ma
chinery and methods, md this is the
only way that we can ever hope to de-
velop the gem resources Of this country.
The company which have been travel
ing for has already made negotiations
for large tracts of mineral land along
the Appalachian system, ard it will
make Immediate efforts to develop the
mines. / have no doubt but they will
strike many unexpected fields Of pre-
cious gems. and the country will get a
new idea of the resources of the mines
OF the south. Times.
