GEOLOGICAL SURVEY.
Report Says the Best Mines are
in the Surnpter District.

A press dispatch from Washington, D.
c., Of recent date, says that portion Of
the next annual report Of the geological
survey will be devoted to the gold and
copper fields Of eastern Oregon, In the
Baker City, Sumpter and surrounding re.
gions. This particular feature Is to be
prepared BY Professor Lingren, who
spent last summer In this section, making
q thorough reconnaissance, with view to
compiling an elaborate and complete re.
port.
The area covered by Professor Lingren
extends from Canyon City on the west,
through Sumpter and Baker City on to
the Snake river and Cornucopia noun.
tains and cover an area approximately 100
miles long by 50 miles wide. 1t was
originally intended to compile this infor'
nation into one Of the regular foIios Of the
survey, but 1t was found that this would
not begin to cover the area investigated.
and the original plan has been changed.
Professor Lingren expresses surprise
at the extent Of the mineral deposits In
that region, saying there Is much more
and richer ore than he had supposed. But
further than this. he thinks the area as a
whole Is yet In an early stage Of develop
ment. and that untold wealth lies undis'
covered In the Blue mountain region.
From his hasty examination. he believes
the deposits Of the greatest extent, those
Of of"greatest permanence." as It Is COM
monty expressed. lie In the vicinity OF
Sumpter. although richer deposits have
been found In other localities. There the
ore seems to be thicker than In any other

fsturers ct the Remington typewriter,

Read the text OF this news dispatch
from Bennington dated August IL, Ben
nington Battle day and the day Of the
Old Home Week celebration:
With the streets thr2uged with people to-
day, Bennington's great day in the year. This
j. owing TO the fact that yesterday afternoon
the states attorney and deputy .herifs oihc-
ialv notified the prop:iet0rs of every place
where intoxicants were supposed to be
kept there if they sold they would be pros
ecuted to the extreme limit of the law. This
in prohibition Vermont and in an antt-pro'
hibtion village. All did rushing business
the balance OF the day Yesterday and today
the mourners are going about the street.
What meaning can you gather from
this other than that the officers of the
county know the places where liquor is
sold the year round and warn the pro-
prietors on celebration days to keep
closed to avoid troubleaDd for appear
ances sake:' Why should the fact that
a town is ''dry" on a holiday attract so
much attention in prohibition state:

Under this heading Editor Burrell
of the Washington Press philosophers
in a friendly way over the ruins" of
the old organization within the republi-
can party lines:
From the time of the middle or late
oO's the bulk of the state population
was along the Mississippi river. The
main traffic had been by water nayiga-
ton, and Dubuque and Burlington, as
the older cities on the water front, ac-
CURED political dominance that they
never relinquished until now, altho
trans state lines of railway, entering
Iowa at other points, superseded river
traffic and built up cities like Daven-
port, Clinton and Keokuk. A quiet,
but potent, political dynasty held the
state in Its grip for over 80 years.
The two seats of peower We're in the
north and In the south of the eastern
part of the state, and they usually
played into each others interest. Al
lison in the north long held, and still
holds, tactful sway, il not supremacy,
while the great factors in the south
were Grimes, Harlan, j. u. Wilson,
Gear, in turn. In 1896 and again in
1900 Cummins tried to berak the magic
combination, in vain. Gears hold on
the affections Of the people and sym
pathies of the state was so powerful
that the dynastic lock could neither be
picked nor broken, Notwithstanding
that population had distributed itself
| all over the state and even the huge
northwest OF Iowa was filled to the
brim. But when Gear died. the key
stone of the old arch fell out, and the
structure tumbled into ruins. His
superb organization dissolved, and
could find no rallying point on any man
| in the south not only, but nowhere in
| the state, indeed. 1t was evident weeks
ago that Cummins organization would
likely win, as 1t was compact. youth
full, passionate. aggressive, and had its
central roots In the great middle ana
west of the state. with laterals that run
