OREGON MINES.

The smelter almost finished at
Sumpter, Ore, is the only one Of any
importance in Oregon.
Much better Roadway was made
clearing out the caved in shaft at the
Columbia mine than was expected.
Since operations commenced on the
Gold Bug property in the Red Boy dis.
trict, Oregon, two important strikes
have been made.
The management of the California
mine near Sumpter has let a contract
for hauling $50 tons Of ore from the
mine to the railroad here.
The biggest mining deal of the year
is now pending whereby Patrick
Clark of Spokane, it is understood,
will secure the Blue Ledge in south
ern Oregon. The property is held at
$25O0O0 by its owners, Cooper, Adams
& McVeigh, and Mr.. Clark is negotiat-
ing for it on the basis of $250,000. He
would pay $4,000 cash, $4,000 n
eight months. and $4,000 in Ii
months.
At Sumpter, Ore, it is reported that
the Bonanza main compartment shaft
is now down 1000 feet. The Morning
mine, in the Greenhorn district, is at
tracing much attention, and seems
destined to make the most wonderful
producer in eastern Oregon. The
Psyche mill is still idle and will not
start up until it is possible to deliver
wood at the mine. The Chloride prop
erty, on Rock creek, is being thor.

There is now 5000 feet Of tunnels.
