REPUBLlC.

The Monarch is looking well in No. 1
shaft. which is 80 feet deep.
Stopping is going on in the Qnilp tun-
mel few feet north Of the winxe.
The Chico shaft is going down more
rapidly than for some time, and is
down 290 feet.
The ore in the north drift on the in
termediate level of the San Poll is bet
ter than il has ever been.
The Butte and Boston double com
partment shaft is going down at a good
rate. 1t is now 100 feet deep.
The men working on the Flag Stan
have found some fine ore in the tunnel
that is being driven southeast of the
shaft.
The machinery Of the Princess Maud
has been restored to working shape
and the pumping out of the mine has
begun.
The winze on the Morning Glory has
been timbered and everything is in
readiness for the installation Of the
steam hoist and pump.
The Ungga tunnel, Wauconda camp, Is
in los feet. and is making an average
Of three feet Of progress each day. Only
two shifts are employed.
The ore body in the south drift on
the San Poll as well as in the stope in
the intermediate level remains un-
changed either in width or value.
The Mountain Lion mill drops
stamps with the greatest regularity.
During the last 80 days the stamps
have not stopped more than 30 min
utes. The ore maintains its value
with surprising regularity.
A station is being cut on the shaft OF
the Tom Thumb and when it is COM
pleted drifting will begin on the ledge
that was recently struck in the shaft.
The compressor plant is being placed
as rapidly as possible. It Is probable
that all the machinery will not be in
complete working order much before
July /.
The shaft on the Republic is being
sunk at rather rapid rate, and it is
down about 20 feet. The mill is going
forward at a wonderfully rapid rate.
There Is still much to do before 1t will
be ready to run. There is reason to be-
heve that about August l 1t will be so
far completed that much of the ma
chinery win be ready to run, and it is
BY no means improbable that the entire
plant will be in operation at that time

OREGON MINES.

Amidst general activity in the east
ern Oregon gold fields placer mining is
this year reviving to a considerable de
gree Several new claims have recently
| been staked and in some instances large
amounts have been taken out in a very
short time. On Spanish Gulch $4,000
was taken out in two weeks, and on
Salmon creek two Cinnamon washed
out $3.50 in 13 days. On Kolb's guleh a
single miner washed out $500 this
spring. and party OF six miners made
$50 per day by shoVeling dirt into
sluice boxes In a free gold quartz
ledge a pocket was opened which
yielded $500, and a piece of rock con
tanning IS was found in the dirt that a
badger had thrown out Of hole. Hun
dreds of prospectors are busy scanning
the country in search Of the yellow
metal, and almost every day new
quartz is being brought In to be as
sayed. Sumpter Is becoming a great
mining center and is attracting the at
tention Of many eastern capitalists
looking for chances for investment.
Inquiries are received almost every day
from eastern men in regard to the
mines in this section. and many rep
resentatives Of capital have been out
to look at the mines.
Surrounding Sumpter within a ra-
dius OF 20 miles are over 1000 quartz
locations, % Of which are large pro-
ducers and 200 others which have over
$4,000 worth Of development work done
on them. Within the same radius are
perhaps $50 placer mines that are
worked annually and pay well. Be
sides these mines copper has been To-
Gated and mined in large amounts.
In the Golconda mine, one Of the
richest in this section, ore running as
high as $40, 900 per ton in gold has been
taken out Other regular producers of
this section are the Columbia, Cougar,
Bonanza, Red Boy, North Pole, Badger,
Union Companion. hex, BaisIey. Elk
horn, Virtue and Conner Creek, which
together yield annually over 8, SOC, 900.
There are besides these mines ten ir.
regular producing mines that average
about $4,000 a year, and several new
producers that show an output Of about
100000 per month. or 81 200, 900 per
annum.
The total amount taken from placer
mines during 1899 was about $500. 900,
most Of which was shipped to San Fran
cisco, Seattle and Boise. Il Is estimated
that between $4,000, 900 and $4,000. 900
will be taken from the Greenhorn dis
trict this year. A large amount Of i'm
Droyement work Is in progress in this
district Several new mills are being
and a number Of old ones
