The Igorot, who inhabits Abra,
Bontoc, Lepanto and Benguet, have
in the past been extremely reticent
about their gold mining. They have
been quoted for the past 200 years as
not permitting the Spaniards access
to the mines. Even those who were
Intimately friendly with them were
not allowed to visit the quartz mines,
aItongh some were permitted to wash
gravel in the streams. The Ggorot
have the reputation Of possessing
Mechanical skill, and are not afraid
Of hard work. go
The time has arrived under
American government when neither
the Igorot nor any other person will
be permitted TO molest or in any way
interfere with legitimate mining
throughout the islands. 30 forward

reasonably be expected there.

CRUEL IRONY OF ~.
FATE IS THIS

Tn the Democrat of this morning
is published the assessment notice
against the stock holders of the
notorious White Swan Mining COM
pany. The assessment levied Is FIVE
cents share. In the notice 1t is not
stated the amount of money that 1t
is thus sought to be raised, nor the
number of shares included In the
assessment, and 1t would require a
week for an expert accountant to
figure 1t out.
The notice occupies thirteen and
half columns in the Democrat, set
solid, and contains about 5000
names. The assessment was levied
June 81 and the sale Of stock
delinquent will be held at the COM
pany's Office In San Francisco August
10.
There will doubtless be several
shares on which the assessment will
not he paid. Some one seems to be
milking White Swan stockholders
again. The shares will be bought
In by the company and It will not be
surprising IL the public Is again given
an opportunity 10 buy this stock.
And In this story Is found strik-
ing illustration of the irony Of fate.
This "fat take," this rich pocket,
SO to speak, judged from a newspaper
that is the publication of
this long, expensive legal notice, ID
made In the Democrat, the paper that
has pounded to a pulp the erstwhile
head of the White Swan company.
Letson Balliett, he who started the
Herald to "do" the Democrat and
spent $50. 900 Of White Swan money
In the unsuccessful attempt. Only
q few weeks ago the White Swan
company sold the Herald for song,
to what It has cost.

BIG DEAL IN PLACER
GROUND CONSUMMATfD

One of the biggest deals in placer
mining ground recorded in Baker
county for long time was made
yesterday, negotiations for which
have been pending for several months.
The property involved was the
Jed A. Blair placer mining ground,
200 acres patented, together with
water rights, fumes, etc., the pur
chaser being the Uncle Sam Mining
and Milling company, r. M. Ander-
son is president.
The consideration Is 100000 OF
which $40, 900, was paid in cash to
Mr.. Blair yesterday forenoon st the
law Office vf Olmsted & Strayer.
Papers and deeds were placed In
escrow at the First National bank and
subsequent payments are to be
made; $4,000 on or before October
l, 1904, aud $4,000 on or before
January l, 1905.
In addition to the Blair claims
the Uncle Sam Mining and Milling
company recently acquired the
Boswell propety, with it's extensive
water rights and privileges,
also, the company is the owner by
purchase of eleven quartz mining
claims.
All Of the above property is stu
ated In Malheur county, in the vicin-
ity Of the old mining camps Of
Mormon Basin and Amelia, and not
FAR from Malheur City.
Jed A. Blair has rightfully the
distinction Of being the poineer
placer miner Of the Mormon Basin
section aud has almost continuously
operated the claims he has just sold
or thirty. five consecutive seasons,
md with good results. The claims
rave yielded bountifulIy. It is
Understood that Mr.. Blair thinks Of
permanently making bis home in

purchase of real estate here.

'urohase for bis company, Ia a prac.

The black Ignite coal is probabl!
