Timber Men After Mine.

A contest Of considerable interest
to mining men has been begun as to
the ownership of the land on which
the Maid Of the Mist mine is located
on Thompson creek. This mine Is
owned by H. NJ. White Of Portland
and Ben Thurston Of Applegate and
the mine has been under course of de-
yelopment for four years and some
lS0 feet Of tunnel has been run. Con-
siderable rich ore has been taken out,
which was milled at a ater-power
arrastre, located on the Applegate
river, two miles above Applegate
postofIioe and owned by Mr.. Thurs
ton. The land was entered last year
as timber claim by other parties
and Messrs. White & Thurston only
recently learned of the attempt of the
timber locator to steal the ownership
of their mine. They have filed a con
test in the Roseburg land Office an
will quite likely win out as the tim.
Der entrymen swore falsely when he
entered the land, for he must make
affidavit that he has personally ex.
amined all parts of the land that be
proposes to enter and that it contains
no mineral deposits nor Is 1t valuable
for agricultural purposes. As there
are buildings at the mine and good
wagon road leading TO 1t, the timber
man either was not on the land, or
knowingly swore to lie to get the
land As it is faring hard these days
with fraudulent land grabbers, aud
the Federal grand jury indicts oD
small evidence, the claimant to the
Maid Of the Mist may not answer to
Inc contest and White & Thurston will
hold their mine without expensive
litigation.
