HAPPENINGS HERE IN OREGON
WILL BUY MINE.
Clark Is Satisfied With Southern Oregon
Copper Ledge.

Copper Ledge.
Developments at the copper mines
on Joe's creek, known as the Blue
ledge, are continuing under the man
agement of Patsy Clark. 1t is reported
upon reliable authority that the pros.
poets obtained from the use OF the
diamond drill in the mine are showing
up more fiatteringly every day. 1t is
now practically certain that the pro.
perty will be taken by Clark under the
provisions of the bond which he has
obtained, and that the deal will be
closed before the termination OF the
term for which the bohd was given.
Prominent mining men from all sec,
tions of the Northwest are fockine
to that section, looking into the pros
poets around the mine. The mine
bonded by Clark is not the only one
In this vicinity which is making good
mineral showings. The belt of copper.
bearing ore reaches for miles north
and south from the Blue ledge, and the
bonding Of the Blue ledge to Clark has
given an impetus to the development
OF other copper prospects in this re-
gion. That that vicinity will prove
to be one of the great mining centers
OF the Northwest is now confidently
expected.
In addition to the mining interest
that may be developed in that section,
there are also large timber interests
which await access to market by the
way OF railroad communication, and
should the Blue ledge prove to be what
Clark and his associates think and
confidently expect it to be, these tim
her interests will be pushed along with
the mining interests.

WITH TELLING EFFECT.
Fourteen and Perhaps More Injured

mined Effort to Reach Negroes In
Jail, But Were Turned Back-MOre
0uardsmen Ordered Out.

Evansville, Ind, July 8.-Following
four days of rioting and general lawless-
ness, this city tonight saw the most ter.
rible of its experiences with rioters.
Seven persons are dead and IA are
known to be injured, and at least that
number more are thought 10 be hurt.
At 1880 O'Clock the members Of
Company A, First regiment, Indiana
National Guard, after days vigilant
guarding OF the county Jail, and 100
deputy sheriffs under Sheriff Chris
Kratz, fred point blank into mob of
1000 men gathered on Fourth, Divis-
ion and Vine streets, surrounding the
Vanderburg county Jail, and attempting
its capture. From O'Clock this morn
ing until the hour OF tonight's catap.
trophe the crowd surged about the jail,
calling the militismen vile names, as.
saulting them with stones and berating
the deputy sherffs who guarded the jail.
The mob had gradually become more
and more excited, and its manifesto
tions OF uneasiness more frequent, and
at 10 O'Clock 1t was seen that nothing
could prevent an assault on the Jail.
At 1890 o'clock the rioters pressed
forward with determination, and inno-
cent onlookers and the curious followed.
Slowly they forced the militiamen back
toward the Jail, until the alleyway be-
tween Division street and the stone
building was reached. Then the lead.
ers, with bicycle in their front as a
shield to the bayonets of the soldiers,
attempted to enter the alley and storm
the alleyway entrance.
Captain Blum, of the National Guard,
ordered charge on the rioters. Grad.
ually the crowd was forced back, tine
soldiers using their bayonets and butts
of their guns. Suddenly rioter fell.
A soldier tried to drag him to his feet,
but before he could do so was assaulted
by rioter. Stones and boulders be.
gan to fly through the air. A soldier
was struck with rock and fell. A
rioter was knocked down with a gun
butt and then shot was fred. The
one shot started fusilade OF musketry
and. shotgun fire from the defenders OF
the Jail, and a scattered return FIRE
from the rioters. Fully 800 shots we're
fred from the jail windows, the court.
houge steps Immediately opposite; and
the soldiers In the streets. No one
knows who fred the first shot. The
soldiers cay it was the rioters.
Governor Durbin is said to have in
structed the authorities not leopard.
ize the safety Of the Jail with half way
measures. The soldiers and deputies
fred into the Ietreating mob of men,
who ran into Division street. For l5
minutes the firing continued. When
ii ceased, the soldiers had the place.
In front of the staggering band of So
soldiers lay the dead and wounded.
Means and shrieks OF agony and fear
came from the injured.

FURNACES FROZEN.
Sudden Strike of WOrkmen Brings
Heavy Losses.

Denver, July 8.-James B. Grant,
chairman of the executive committee
Of the American Smelling & Refining
company, estimates the damage at the
Grant and GlCbe smelters caused by
the unexpected strike OF the employees
at t25. 900 to $50, 900. All but two Of
the IL furnaces in use we're "irozen,"
and the ore will have to be cut out be-
fore the furnaces can again be used.
President Charles F. Meyer, Of the
Western Federation of Miners, says
that he does not think it will be neces-
sary to call out the miners of the state
in support of the smeltermen. The
failure of the legislature to pass an
eight-hour law is given by the strikers
as the cause of the trouble, and the
company is accused OF using improper
means to defeat legislation.
A large force of police is guarding
the smelters in this city, and no seri-
ous disturbance has occurred, though
IL men have been arrested for disorder
ly conduct and making threats.

BRiBE TO GOVERNOR.
Missouri BOOdIers Offered to Pay Him to
Sign Bill.

ST. Louis, July 7.-Ex-Governor Lon
V. Stephens was before the grand jury
today for over an hour Before enter
ing the grand jury room he had con-
ference with Circuit Attorney Folk,
during which he told Mr.. Folk that he
had been offered $4,000 while he was
Governor, if he would appoint James
Butler, of St. Louis, excise commits
sioner. The Ex-Governor also stated
to Mr.. Folk that after he had signed
the transit bill an order was made to
him to put him in on the ground floor
in the purchase of stock which would
eventually net him a profit of from
$4,000 to 100000.
Ex-Governor Stephens said he re-
fused to listen to the $4,000 PROPOSE
tion for the appointment of Butler.
Butler was not appointed excise COM
missioner, the appointment going to
Charles A. Higgins. Ex-Governor
Stephens also declared that he did not
take advantage Of the opportunity to
invest In transit stock
Interesting developments are ex-
pected from the statements of Cover
nor Stephens. It is understood that
his talk with the Circuit Attorney to-
day is only the beginning of line Of
investigation taken up by Mr.. Folk
which will result in many big Doodle
transactions coming to light. Further
investigation will be resumed tomor-
row.

DIR IN TRAIN WRECK.
Twenty-Three Killed and Nine Injured
In Collision.


Washington, July 9.-Twenty four
persons were killed and three injured
in a head.on collision on the Virginia
Midland division OF the Southern rail-
way at Rockfish, Va, this afternoon.
The passenger train which lett WASH
ington at 11:15 A. M. today for Allan.
ia, Ca, dashed into local freight
which was standing on the main line
of the road at that point, wrecking both
engines and the baggage and express
cars OF the passenger train. The bag
gage car and the second class passenger
coach Immediately following it were
telescoped. The coach was occupied
mostly by colored people.
The trainmen, under doctors direc.
tion, cut through the panels of the
baggage car and took out 20 of the dead.
Probably a score of the injured were
removed. A special train which went
from here to the scene OF the wreck re-
turned to the city about 8 o'clock,
bringing some OF the dead and most of
the injured.
Most of the immigrants we're Aus
trians, and we're bound for points as far
distant as California.
The freight train was in charge OF
Conductor Brubeck and Engineer Hale,
and at the time of the accident was on
the return run from Lynchburg to
Charlottesville. Rockfsh station is
midway between these two points and
the track there is a single one. Engin-
eer Hale had orders to get out Of the
way of the fast passenger train, but, tor
some reason, which has not yet been
explained, he had overstayed his time,
and had failed to take siding so that
the passenger train could pass. The
trains came, together with horrible
crash, and fearful scene OF panic en-
sued when the occupants of the cars re-
allied what had occurred. The pas
senger tlain was made up OF an ex-
press car, a baggage car, two day
coaches and two Pullman cars.

Ontario, Or, July 9.--The Malheul
butte irrigation d tch, which was III
| process Of construction last fail, owing
to certain conditions was not completed
as expected, and the work suspended
for time. deal has just been con-
summated between the Artesian Springs
water and land company, which form
erly owned the reservoirs and the ditch,
and a number OF substantial business
men OF Weiser, Idaho, by which the
latter are to have controlling interest
in the ditch and reservoirs. The con-
sideration is $45 900, and perpetual
water right to 5000 acres Of land under
the ditch.
About 20 per cent Of the work on the
bitches has been completed and the
work remaining to be done will begin
in this coming August, and will be rap
idly pushed to completion, and the
opinion is confidently expressed that by
next spring it will be in use. The es-
timated cost of what remains to be done
is $50. 900.
The Malheur butte ditch, when COM
plete, will be 23 miles in length, ex-
tending from near Vale to Dead Ok
Flat and covering all the territory on
the west side Of the Malheur river from
Vale to and including Dead Ok Flat.
This ditch will connect by means OF
Willow creek and another ditch above
Vale 10 miles in length with three large
reservoirs which will supply water
during the entire season in which water
is needed. These three reservoirs,
which contain about 1000 acres OF
water, have irrigation duty OF $4,000
acres when completed. They are more
than half completed, and sufficient
water is stored in this section to cover
all the land in cultivation under the
ditch, and as the reclamation Of land
continues the reservoirs will be replet-
ed until enough water is stored to cover
the entire acreage under the ditch.
These reservoirs are natural sites, and
by the expenditure of about $l5, 900
have been placed in conditi for use.
The water is stored in them in the win
ter and early spring from Upper Will
low creek and a system of springs, thus
utilizing the vast quantity of water
which has formerly gone to waste and
converting thousands OF acres Of sage
brush into alfalfa fields.
