;:
"Rev. /. ID. Driver recently remarked
that the inmates OF the Oregon state
penitentiary are less criminal than the
members of the state legislature who
voted pay for the hold-uP legislature.
This same Rev. l. d. Driver, d. D.,
knew that Joseph Simon planned, man.
aged and controlled this illegal and re-
olutionary conspiracy and then pushed
through the state senate q bill, in viola
tion of the constitution, to pay these
criminals. Yet he voted as a senator to
elect this same Joseph Simon-this chief
of criminals-to the L. s. senate. Can
Inconsistency and senility further go?
the less Mr.. Driver dilates M the GRIM
inality of the "hold-up." the better for
his reputation. We can in charity for
give the poor deluded dupe, who was
pursuaded that he could best serve his
party by preventing organization and
the election of Mitchell. But to forgive

spiracy was, az he forcibly expressed it,

From the Journal:
Quite an excitement was produced
here last week by VIM. Wigle showing a
.st or received by him from DIR. oglesby
at Portland in relation to the new mines
on Antelope creek l6 miles south oil
town. He states in substance, that five
assays of the ore taken at random over
nearly a square mile of ground ran
il ON s.. .66 to $5.4S, and that capitalists
had offered to bond his claims for $2OO,-
600 for one year, but that he had not
accepted:thinkinG thathe could dosoetter.
To one familiarl with the locality from
which those assays come this statement
is simply astonishing, for there are mil
lions OF tons OF the ore lying on top OF the
ground, in fact, a mountain OF IT. 1t
seems incredible that a mass Of rock I'M
pregnated with gold in paving quantities
could exist outside the diseased brain OF
a Muchausen. The deposit has been
compared to that of the Treadwell illne
on Douglas island, but if this rock IS
worth So a ton on the average it is worth
q dozen Treadwells. Quite number OF
claims have been located and there are
still more equally as good.
