REPORT ON PORTAGE
HAMMOND BRINGS COST WITH
IN $165,0O0 LIMIT.
The Call For Bids Will Be Published
Shortly Three Months to
Complete Road.

Civil Engineer A. E. Hammond has
made report of his preliminary survey
of the route of the proposed portage
railway from The Dalles to Cello. The
report was filed with the board Of port
age railway commissioners and contains
a detailed map and chart showing not
snly the course of the road but the loca-
ton and size of all cuts and fills, bridg-
ss, etc. In addition to the written re-
port, Mr.. Hammond made verbal
report in answer to numerous questions
shat we're asked. His detailed estimate
of the cost of constructing the road will
not be made public until after bids have
been opened, but it is announced that
his total estimate brings the cost within
the appropriation, $165,000.
After considering the facts laid before
them by Mr.. Hammond, the board di-
rected him to proceed at once to secure
rights of way across the lands over
which the proposed route runs, and pre-
pare complete plans and specifications
in writing as basis for an advertise
ment for bids for furnishing the labor
and material necessary for the construc-
tion Of the road The members Of the
board were of the opinion that the plans
and specifications can be completed by
the 1st of September. The call for bids
will be published for ten days, when &
contract will be let if satisfactory bid
is received. Mr.. Hammond estimated
that it will not take more than 81:
months to complete the road after the
contract has been let. If all works wei
il is therefore probable that the road
viii be in operation by the last of Feb
ruary.

BLUE MOUNTAIN COAL.
Producing Mine in Operation With a
Fine Deposit.


Fine Deposit.
The addition of coal In the Blue
mountains to the list of products has
opened new industry in Morrow coun-
ty. So quietly has the mine been worked
that little is known by the outside world
Of the extensive coal fields Of this sec
tion.
The property, which lies within q
miles Of Heppner, has been developed to
the point of producer. The latest i'm
provement at the mine was completed
July 81, in the shape of coal bunkers
with a capacity of As tons. At present
men are laying car tracks and centerlng
their work on tunnel No. 5, which has
proved to be great producer,
crew of 20 men to the shift is work
ing night and day. A AZ foot vein
shows up in this tunnel and is continu-
ally growing larger. Several other veins
are showing up we'll. The company has
secured the right of way up Willow
creek on which to build its railroad and
will undoubtedly get work started on
the road in the near future, as right of
way can now be secured through the
town easily. The course the road would
take was hit by the recent flood.
The existence Of coal in the Blue
mountains has been known for more
than 20 years. Prospectors have found
particles of coal in different places along
The creek all through the southeastern
part of Morrow county.
A little over Il miles southeast of
IIeppner at the head of Willow creek in
tbe Blue mountains, is where the main
body OF coal lies and is known by the
name Of the Willow creek coal fields.
This property is owned and operated by
lIeppner people in a company incorpor-
sted under the name of the Heppner
Railroad and Coal company. The prin-
cipal stockholders are d. A. Herren,
w. A. Herren, George Conser and c. f..
Redheld
About 30 years ago Frank Maddox,
m old pioneer, opened a prospect hole
20 miles south of Heppner and took out
small quantity Of coal. He was never
able to get through the crust of rock, ow-
ing to lack of appliances, and therefore
rave up the job. The coal which Mr.,
,iaddock took out was consumed in
'Ieppner. This mine gradually filled
With water and was entirely deserted by
Mr. Maddox. The Matesons, four in
number, took up the work where Mr.
Maddox left off and opened up tunnel
near the original prospect. For years
they toiled, blasting and picking through
the rock, hoping to find the black dia
mond, but it was of no avail, Hon
Henry Blackman took up the cause
and grub staked and furnished these
hardy old pioneers with capital for some
tine. Today this property is known al
the Black Butte coal mines and isowneC
and operated entirely by local business
men.

deeds. which are shady.
His hearing came up before Judge
Crawford late yesterday afternoon.
The "El Paso Kid" has very little re-
spect for the truth. in fact he don't
have any regard for It whatever Some
time ago he hit the town. coming here
from the Pass city, and took up his
abode In the Third street colony. He
was such an entertaining good natur-
cd and good looking youth that he
soon found employment. Miss Lillian
Williams on West Copper avenue hired
him to do this and that around the
house and make himself useful.
The "El Paso Kids" sporting blood
Loiled to be bigger sport, so he
did make himself useful and very
much disuseful 10 Miss Williams. Last
Friday afternoon he invaded her jew
elry box and got away with nearly $500
worth of her choice gems. The kid"
Iii out with them and got away up to
Ration, when tho cruel arm Of the law
nabbed him on Monday. Deputy
Sheriff Newcomer of this city went at.
ter MIN and brought him back Tues.
day night. They have the kid" but
the iewelry has disappeared and no
trace Of IL can be found.
The kid" Is such a liar and has so
many names that not much could be
learned AZ the hearing First he'd tell
one story and then that would contra.

hat his name was Major Toney and
that his fathers name was Toney Ma.

Such cheerful. straight, honest lying
has not been heard In the police court
for years Judge Crawford found suf
