OREGON PLACE
FOR US. ASSAY OFFICE

The Sumpter District Mining
Mems association, recently organized
In the Hill Town. has passed reso-
luton endorsing the bill introduced
by Senator Mitchell In the upper
house Of congress, providing for the
establishment of an United States
assay office in the City of Portland.
The Sumpter association has said
nothing concerning the pending bill
In the lower house for the establish.
ment Of such an office In Baker City.
II Is therefore presumed that the
Sumpter mipjng men would rather see
the establishment Of u government
assay office in Portland than In Baker
City,
For four consecutive years Con.
gresham Malcolm a. Moody, repre-
sentative from the Second con-
gressional district of Oregon, has
presented at each session of congress
"a bill providing for the assay office
In Baker City. Coincidentally du-
ring that period Congressman Thomas
Tongue, representative from the First
Oregon district, introduced u similar
bill for the benefit Of Portland. The
Senators from Oregon permitted the
representatives in the lower house to
fight II out.

tion. quite naturally refused to per-
NIT the passage of either bill, and
thus the matter has remained for five
years.
The grave and reverend senators
this year have taken the fight from
the lower house to the upper house
and 1t now appears probable that
Portland will be selected, az the con-
gressman from the Second district,
Hon. J. N. Williamson, has so far
made no move to look out for the in
terests of this section of the country.
The fact remains. however, that II
there Is to be a Government assay
Office established in Oregon. its loca-
tion should be governed by the terri
tory to be benefited.
Baker City il the center Of the
richest gold fields in the West.
Eastern Oregon produced eighty per
cent Of the precious metals produced
by the state. This section annually
adds from four to six millions to the
wealth of the world. Because there
IL no assay office In thu state, all the
gold bullion produced in this region
Is shipped to the Government assay
Office at Boise, or to the United
States mint at San Francisco. and is
therefore added to the accredited
yields of California and Idaho.
The establishment of an assay office
In Oregon would remedy this evil,
the Office be located In Port
land or Baker City. II is a fact,
however. that should the office be To-
Gated in Portland. a large percentage
Of the bullion produced in Baker
county would be shipped to Boise,
owing to the nearness of that point.
Thus the main object of the estab-
lishment Of the Office in Oregon
would be defeated.
The speciOus arguments In sup
port Of the claim that Portland Is the
better location for the office IL that
large amount Of gold from Alaska
would come to that point. This.
in the face Of the fact that bill has
already been introduced In congress
or the establishment Of u similar
,ffice at juneau, with every reason tn
relieve that bill will pass, despite
he efforts of Seattle to prevent II.
The move to establish an assay
,tiice in Oregon Is for the benefit of
he miners of Oregon. In view Of
he fact that eighty per cent of the
miners Of Oregon constitute Baker

Minnesota made good showing In skrmish
work In the preliminary firing and expects to
do better In the competition firing. The Illi-

work. Illinois led the list, on the 200-yard
range, with Minnesota and Iowa tied at seven
points behind
Minnesota led Illinois by twenty-six points on
the 500-yard range. Illinois. however. took sew
eral bulls eyes in succession on the 600-yard
range and climbed up on Minnesota in the total
lead
Sergeant II. w. Breidt of Illinois made the
largest total with 1863 Major A. G.. Chase of
Minnesota was second high score man with 167,
but one point behind Breidt.

The wind was an important element in yes

dashed this morning by the result Of the

teams. The scores for the forenoon were:
81 Minnesota. $40; Illinois, S57; Iowa, 613.

last night, leave Minnesota with total

The skirmish run and the match will
be completed this afternoon and the rela-

Washington himself has prosecuted some
