EDITOR GAZETTE: Situated in Ian,
mountains at the head-waters of the
| willamette and Umpqua, and only lie
miles southeast of Corvallis, is mining
district which is destined to be Oregon's
'Cripple Creek" Bohemia district GOV
ering an area OF 12x20 miles, or 240 so
miles and consisting of some 1000 min
| ing claims and nearly 500 camps,
is wonder to all who behold her. Tall
timber, steep mountains and pure water
inspire the pleasure seeker. But there is
more to this wonderful treasure vault
than simple beauty.
Leaving the Southern Pacific railroad
at Cottage Grove we take the stage, and
for distance of s. miles, climb to these
gold fields.
For the benefit of our friends who have
purchased stock in the Great Eastern
Mining and Milling Company, will say
that this company has Io mining claims
OF 20 acres each, or $50 acres of mineral
ground, with abundance of timber and
water.
The work for this year has uncovered
immense bodies of high grade ore. We
have 900 feet of tunnel and eight distinct
lodges.
The average of "a assays We had run
this season was 500 81 per ton, which is
showing to be proud of. Free ore can
be milled in Bohemia camp for S per
ton and pay. Base ore can be mined
and shipped in its natural state for $25,
at a profit. is, however, much cheap
er to put in reduction works and ship
just the concentrates.
Our base ore is sulpbide ore with
some schutes of lead ore carrying very
high in gold aud silver
The Oregon and S. E. railroad is al
ready completed % miles, and is under
rapid construction, which when complet-
ed to the mines, will cheaper transporta-
tion and add great value to the district.

We're Married Wednesday.

A society event of unusual interest was
the double wedding which occurred in the
Catholic church in this city, Wednesday
morning. On this occasion the mar
riage of Albert J. Metzger and Miss Ed
ma Garrow, Wilbert w. Garrow and Miss
Alma King was solemnized.
The church had been most beautifully
decorated for the occasion with flowers,
ferns aud evergreeas. Promptly at o.
m, the hour set for the ceremony, the
wedding march was played by Mrs. F.
P. Sheasgreen and, in the presence OF
many friends, the bridal party marched
up the aisle and took their places before
the chancel rail. Miss Mae Mangas was

A Good Showing.

D., B. Farley, whose efforts for
the betterment of roads in his
section has made him a leader in
these matters, was in Corvallis,
Tuesday. Speaking of the stretch
of road between Monroe and juno
ton, which had the reputation
of being about as bad as road
could be, Mr.. Farley said that
the portion of this road from
Monroe to the Lane county line
is now in excellent shape, and
IA miles of it is as good as any
road in the county. Within the
last two years about 1900 yards
of gravel has been put on it. A
gravel loader is used and it has
proved a great success as time
and money saver. 1t will, under
favorable circumstances, load a
yard of gravel in a minute. More
than this, wagons are loaded on
the level ground and teams that
could draw but a yard of gravel
from a pit, find no difficulty in
pulling a yard and a half to the
load. In fact, Mr.. Farley says
that 40 loads of gravel, averag-
ing I q yards to the load, were
hauled by six teams on the road
in his district in one day last
summer.
