PORTLAND Will DEMAND
THAT i. s. ASSAY OFFICE

Monday, November l. at Portland,
Oregon, In the rooms of the Board of
Trade, at 10 o'clock a. m., is the
day. place and hour fixed for the
holding of the annual meeting OF the
Oregon Miners Association. Exec
utive officers from the various dis
trict associations will be delegates.
Officers will be elected for the en-
suing year and some plan will be
proposed for the repeal of the Eddy
law. The establishment of a govern
ment assay Office In the state will
also be discussed. The services of
the Oregon congressional delegation
will be enli sted In behalf OF this
project. The main object sought, Of
course, in the establishment of a
government assay Office In Oregon Is
to arrange matters so that this state
will receive from the government
statistics due and proper credit
for its gold output. Ever since the
dim dawn of mining In this corner Of
the continent. Oregon's gold yield
has gone to Boise and San Fancisco.
to swell the accredited yield of Idaho
and California.
One of the principal schemes, 1t Is
suspected, connected with the
formation of the Oregon Miners
association by Portland men, aud
the Inauguration OF a propaganda
for the formation OF subsidiary asso.
ciations throughout the state. was to
cause the seleution OF Portland IA
the site for the proposed United
States assay Office. This looked
feast ble, by reason Of three out OF
the four members of the Oregon con-
gressional delegation being either
residents of, or closely affiliated
with Portland It was because Con.
gresham Williamson, from the
Sscond district, realized this fact,
that hs mounted the band wagon,
and, In an open letter to his eastern
Oregon constituents, printed In The
Miner last spring, announced that al
attempt to locate the federal essay
office In Baker City or Sumpter
would result In such storm OF pro-
test from the Webfoot slope as to
defeat the whole project.
Now comes the Evening Telegram,
hitherto ono of the busiest boosters
for Portland ss the proper site. aud
quietly puts in plug against the
scheme. In the following language;
"Senator Mitchell's good offices
will be sought In this (the assay
otfire) matter, and every effurt will
be brought to bear upon the powers
that be for the establishment OF an
Office where reliable assays may be
secured, notwithstanding the fact
that there are several thoroughly
competent aud perfectly rel isbl'
assayers now located within the
state"
The above paragraph, which ap'
pearel In the mining department OF
Tuesdsy's Telegram, evidently got
past the lynx eyes of copy reader.
who should have known that ian
office where reliable assays may be
secured" has nothing to do with
government institution OF the
character In question. Such an Office
is for the purchase by government OF
gold bullion, q perfect record being
kept Of the transaction In all its
details. The annual report of the
director OF the mint, wherein various
states are credited with their yields,
is compiled from the'e records.
Therefore, with q government assay

In 1860 when the Republican party
first came into power this was almost
exclusively an agricultural country and
the policy Of the Democratic party was
to keep IT so. That party said the
United States is destined to be the
granary OF the world, but a manufact-
uring country, never. The Republican
policy was TO make 1t great manu-
featuring as well as agricultural
country, and 1t has done so. In the
year 1900 the United States produced
one-third of all the manufactured
products OF the world and shipped
them broadcast to foreign markets.
This never could have been done I'M
der the Democratic policy OF free
trade.

NOTES FROM
THE MINERS

BUNKER HILL.-The first clean up
of the new twenty stamp mill was made
last week. The mill. owing to an acci-
dent to the rock breaker, was not kept
running to its full capacity for the
whole month, only ten stamps being
kept in motion part of the time. We
are not able to give the exact figures of
the clean up, except that the month s
run averaged something over Sc per
ton, which is very satisfactory record,
and leaves good margin of profit.
The ore came mostly from the 1900 foot
level. which is of poorer grade then
the ledge ip the 800 and 14OO levels.
The cleanup is highly satisfactory to
the stock holders.
ZEILA.-The underground workers
were laid off temporarily at this mine
last Tuesday. This step was imperative
because of the immense volume of
water flowing into the works, requiring
the constant working of the water
tanks to prevent the flooding of the
levels. There is considerable compare
lively level land about the leila, with
some depressions, acting as a reservoir
for the surface water. Most of it drains
down into, the mine. Owing to these
exceptional conditions, while other
mines in the wet season have about
double the amount of water to handle
as compared with normal conditions,
the Zeila has fully six times as much.
1t was found impossible to keep the
mill supplied with ore, aud keep the
water down at the same time. Hence
the stamps were hung up, and the
miners laid off. A few days of fine
weather will cause the water to slacken
and mining operations to be resumed.

10, 1888, and the majority of his years
had been spent here, among his many
friends. Little John had kind and
pleasant smile for all, and it was no
difficulty for him to gain friends where
ere he went. He departed from here
last August to make his home in
