Kite Builder Has
Battle With Kite

Chicago, Aug. 21.-A battle in mid
air with monster of his own construc-
ton, came near removing a pictur-
esque character of the Democratic CAM
paign from the political map recently.
Silas J. Conyne, the Democratic kite
flyer, quit the carpenters trade several
years ago to become professional kite
builder. His biggest fifteen-foot kite
consists of two triangular boxes VITA
side wings and Is said to be the strong
est lifting one ever made.
In trying out the air machine on the
prairie near his house today Conyne
laid out 1000 feet of line with the kite
on one end and the other end secured
to stout tree.
Lifting the kite into position in the
wind, he began to back away from 1t
as It scared above him, keeping the
steel cable line under his arm to pre-
vent the strain of too sudden snap
ping up OF the slack line.
When he was 100 feet from the kite
and 900 feet from the anchored end,
the line lifted Conyne into the air. TO
let go would mean the destruction Of
the flyer.
In a stronger surrent Of air the ma
chine shot up 400 feet with great speed,
carrying its inventor with it. A cross
current of air prevented possibly fatal
consequences by carrying 1t in a side
wise swing to the ground, landing the
kite builder almost 500 feet from where
he had left the ground.

DEVELOPMENT
PROGRESSING.
Eastern Oregon Gold Fields
Coming to the Front.

The development Of the eastern Oregon
mining districts is progressing better in
these days than ever before, and It does
not take a man with great wisdom to
discover that it will not be long before
that locality will be over run with pros.
rettors, with men OF caliber and money,
determined to know the extent of the ter
rltory and " hat there is in it. II will be
well If those having interests there will
realize the Importance OF giving royal
welcome to them.
Eastern Oregon is getting some good
advertising in the eastern states and its
effect is being felt by general inquiry
among the ,anlis as to the truth Of things,
and also by sending OF capable and ex.
rerienced men from that locality to cover
the district thoroughly and ascertain the
truth. We know OF one such inquirer
this week coming from New York City, a
gentleman versed in all the intricacies Of
Wall street, having a good reputation
there for probity and honor, and backed
hy welI.known business men; who Is ac.
tompanied by thoroughly experienced
ptospector, with instructions to spend
three months IN the district ii necessary.
Sueh men should be given full opportun.
ity, ii known, and as in all probability he
will not tell his business on the housetops,
the best way Is to give all strangers a
welcome under the theory that thereby
they may entertain angels unawares.
This business OF discouraging new com.
ers, Of deeryng localities and mines, Of
silence when your own property Is being
explored, Of a general hoodoo Of everything
In a dog.in.the.manger spirit, should be
reiegated to the rear. Give the district a
chance. You can't stop 1t entirely, how.
ever much you may try, and though you
may delay the march Of civilization for a
time, those who have claims and prospects
are not going to he wheedled out Of their
property for nothing, and the time will
come when there will be more than one
person looking for the same proposition,
when competitive bids will work their
work to the betterment Of the District

Of published dividends are better for the

Mining a Business Proposition.

The time was when mining was consid.
cred among that class Of accidents we call
"Iuek." 1t seems left for our age to re.
duce 1t to regular business regulations
and enroll it among one Of the worlds
great industries. Undermining Is only
like luek-farming, or any other kind Of
so.called chance work. Men have had
"wind.falls in almost all kinds Of bust.
ness, but for the mass Of common mortals
the safe way Is by the way Of common
sense, and wisely adapted toll. We must
dig" for il. The "up.to.now" idea Of
the matter Is briefly expressed In the fol-.
lowing clipping from the Mining Record
says the Coeur D'AIene Mining Journal.
"Indications are that this activity Is but
the beginning Of better day than the
mining industry has ever seen. Since
the days Of the great gold mines Of Ophir
and the mysterious diggings whence
came the ingots Of the lncas Of Peru,
mining has had hazy halo Of romance
around it. The cool.headed man Of com.
merce has been too much inclined, in
many ages past, to regard mining as a
gamble, a venture, wild speculation.
That idea is fading. Business methods
are transforming mining from the theme
Of the story teller to the subject matter Of
the figured statements Of the business
world. Mining Is business. Therein lies
the brightness Of the future Of the indus

Bristol Bay Plaeers q Rank Fake.

the Albatross has been prosecuting re.
searches in the interest Of science In the
South Sees and in Oriental and Alaskan
waters for good part of the time, with
Prot. Lewis Aggasiz, the eminent scien.

According to The Sitka Alaskan, which
reached here by the Queen, the Albatross,
which put In at Bristol Bay, reports the
alleged placer strike there rank fake.
The story told by The Alaskan, as CLEANED
from the Alhatross' officers, II true, Is one
that should cause good deal OF shame to
those who are engineering It. No names
are mentioned, but It Is said the story Of
the strike was started In order to create a
stampede for the district next year. But
three or four men are interested in the
game. These men have a trading store
at village on the Nushaeak river, $50
miles or so up from Bristol Bay. The

Machinery for the Gold Ridge.

A fine set Of pumping machinery has
just been purchased for the Gold Ridge
mine and has been billed to arrive from
Portland at Baker City within few days,
and on its arrival 1t will be Immediately
hauled by wagon to the mine, and in
stalled by Manager Nichols. Under that
gentleman's active management there Is
already force Of men at work engaged
In the preparatory work which will pave
the way for operations on larger scale
than at any time In the past. The Gold
Ridge Is one Of the old.time properties Of
Lower Burnt river and In its day has
yielded quite handsomely in gold. About
a week ago, as stated In the columns Of
the Morning Democrat at the time, the
property passed into the possession Of Mr..
Ietson Ballet under bond Of $50, 900. he
continuing Mr.. Ira B. Nichols In the man.
agement, to carry out an elaborate scheme
Of exploitation. For that purpose an
ample fund has been placed at the com.
mand Of Mr.. Nichols by Mr.. Ballet, and
while at present moderate force Is en-.
gagged at the mine, the same will be in.
creased from time to time as room Is made
for the men. Heretofore Mr.. Ballet has
been known to Baker City people chiefly
on paper, but It Is very evident from the
manner In which he takes hold OF the
Gold Ridge, that he means business
straight from the shoulder. His friends
that knew him elsewhere say that Mr..
Ballet Is bold operator and they do not
doubt that ne will make his promise good
of making the Gold Ridge one of the prin.
cipal producers in the dstrict.-Democrat.
