Already senator's and conores,

Already senators and congressman
are gathering in Washington to be
present at the opening of congress
next month. There is much specu-
lation as to whether the session will
be long or short, with the sentiment
prevailing that it will be an unusu-
ally long one. 1t is expected that
financial matters will come up In
such shape that hard-fought bat
tie will result. The single-standard
element seems determined to force
the issue and to settle it, so far as it
can be settled by congress. The
session will therefore probably con-
tlnue until the hot weather forces an
adjournment.

AN OPEN RIVER.


In concluding a lengthy editorial
on the above subject, yesterday Is
East Oregonian says:
eff the people of Eastern Oregon
and the whole Inland Empire desire
an open river, and their interests
would be greatly advanced by one,
let them join their forces and turn
down every man who aspires for
public office who will not raise his
voice in and out of season for an
open river. And right here, pressure
should be brought to bear on Port
land to force her to join IN the
movement and march shoulder to
shoulder with the people of the In
land Empire for an open river. The
East Oregonian is quite confident
that those who are physically operat-
ing the railroads are not opposed to
an "open river," but the opposition
comes from those who are manipu-
lating their stocks and bonds and
are doing their level best to wiring
as much tribute from the people as
is in their power, regardless of the
best interests of the railroad proper
ties and the country.
.'The salvation of every people
lies with themselves. They can
drive the manipulators and serviIe
politicians to cover and put such
men on guard as will bring about the
fulfillment of their desires. They
can force the servile newspapers to
espouse their cause, as involved in an
open river, and make the land ring
with Indignation and defiance until
they secure what they demand. The
newspapers of Portland should be
the first to take this matter up and
present it as it should be, until ac-
tion is taken that will insure an open
river at an early day. Three states
are heavily interested in the matter
and their development kept in check
by the barriers which stand in the
way of the Columbia being naviga-
BILE from Lewiston to the sea. The
people of these states should hold
themselves in readiness to smash the
head of any man or corporation that
throws the least obstacle in the way
of the attainment of the object
desired.
"By little vigorous work the peo-
pie of the Inland Empire can have
the benefits of an open river inside of
five years. But without it, millions
of the peoples money will be squan-
dered on the project. to be gobbled
by the ''traftickers in government .
and twenty years will roll by with
out an open river"

Death Came Coffee Creek Old George Magnenat
Who Had Stony Hearted Partner.

witness the sight. Most of the mules were
disposed OF, however, at good prices.
1t is reported here tonight that party
of three Oaklanders will arrive here from
Coffee Creek tomorrow with about $12, 900
in gold taken out in four day s from claim
they located last Saturday. They claim to
have prospect as rich as that of the
Graves brothers, and will leave man in
charge until they return. 1t is their inten-
ton to put in an. extensive plant for the
purpose OF working the gravel.
A woman from Oakland left here yester-
day for the purpose of starting laundry
at the new town of Coffeeville, on Coffee
Creek. She expects 10 make small for
tune DING washing for the miners and
prospectors. This will practically be the
first business enterprise in the new town !;
but more are to follow, and quite a boom
in lots is taking place. The shipment of
gold out OF that district is carefully guard
ed for fear of hold-up.
While Trinity and Shasta counties pre-
sent splendid field for prospectors it
presents a better one for capitalists
There are many properties that can be
obtained cheap which only require the
outlay of capital to produce largely.
There is an immense acreage of gravel in
low bars and high deposits as yet un-
worked. There is an old river channel
extending through Trinity Center, past
Minersville and Weaverville and on to the
Trinity River. The working of Weaver
Greek with the adjacent side hills by
means of tunnel to the river wonld be q
paying enterprise. Shafts sunk in the
Weaver basin through the false bedrock
would undoubtedly open up valuable
deep diggings. By the expenditure of
money a French corporation has shown
what can be done with a Trinity County
placer. There are many as good mining
propositions here awaiting capital.
These counties need no boom, as their
merits rest upon a substantial foundation.
Here is field for the intelligent, ener-
getic and industrious prospectors. No.
where can capital be more intelligentIy
invested with a greater certainty of fair
returns.
b Booms are ephemeral, but old Trinity is
on the eve of great and systematic deveI-
opment of her mining interests. and in
the near future she will take her place
among the gold-producing regions OF the
world, to which she is entitled by her
natural wealth, and Shasta presents to
the mining fraternity endless openings for
the uncovering Of wealth.
While the upper country swarms with
prospectors and new strikes are reported
daily, yet nothing has been found to date
equaling the Graves brothers find. How
ever, it is hardly time for much results.
AS in all mining excitements, a large
number of prospectors will draw blanks,
still a great many will do well. The
Coffee Creek section is undoubtedly rich
in placer and quartz gold, and under the
thorough prospecting it will now receive
many valuable mines will undoubtedly be
discovered. The country is large in ex-
tent and there is room for many.

STORY OF A DEATH.
The Passing of George Magnenati
and the Disappearance OF
HIS Gold.

CARRVILLE, CAL, Aug. 2L.-Here is
picture and little story OF life and death
on Coffee Creek. Twenty-Five years ago
two Frenchmen drifted up Coffee Creek
and took up placer claims on Union Creek
near its mouth a little below Hickory
Gulch. They were George Magnenati and
Pierre Adams. They went to sluicing
gravel in their primitive way and they
always took little gold from the rifles.
When that early tide of placer mining
which skinned the cream of gold from
the rich bars and channels receded from
Coffee Creek they stayed on ard thew
sluiced on through all the years. They
were frugal and they worked on in their
lonely life, seeing a woman once in
months when they made the trip of thirty
The San Francisco call., 1897-08-22

here to-day with the idea that she was
going to start hotel.
Quite a numbe of mining experts and
representatives. of capitalists are arriving
to look over the ground and look up the
chances OF investment. Many are waiting
for new finds for which they will give a
bond. Graves Brothers have refused
$50 600 for the Blue Jay property. To-day
the claims of Frank Blghouse on Big
Boulder Creek, tributary of Coffee Greek,
were bonded for $25. 600 by E. A. Wagner
and John Bodiker. There is quartz and
placer claim both lying high on the hill
side and crossing the Blythe ditch.
There is a promising ledge two and a
half feet wide, yielding $50 ton accord
ing to samples, and a snort tunnel has
encountered an eighteeu-inch bed of con-
glomerate. which Is said to yield 81 20 the
pan.
Two thousand people are camped in the
woods and along the waters within the
space of less than a square mile at the
lower end of Coffee Creek this evening.
