Hon. Henry ]. Bean, Pendleton, Ore.
My Dear Sir:-Through the CO.

tion, we have just secured assurance
from the government that two miles
Of experimental road will be built in
Oregon at an early date, if the labor
and materials are furnished by the
county or community where the work
is to be done.
We have chosen Pendleton as the
scene for one mile of work, and Salem
for the other. have communicated
with Judge Scott, president of the
Good Roads association, on the subject
and he will doubtless communicate
with you soon. l write to ascertain
if you will assure us at once if the
labor and materials Tor the work at
Pendleton will be provided by your
county or community. The work is
to be of the highest standard of the
engineers of the Good Roads associa-
ton, and will be very instructive to
the people of your state.
1t Is the purpose to advertise the
date of the work throughout the
whole community, so that, when it is
undertaken, as many farmers of the
district will be present to witness the
methods involved and the type of
machinery used for best results, as
possib bic We will commence wide

possible results. Would you kindly
inform me about this at once and
oblige? Yours very truly,
G. w. FULTON.

The announcement that a sale of the
Heinze properties had been made came
in telegram this morning from John

Amalgamated Copper company, who is
now in New York. Mr.. Ryan, with
his attorneys, left Butte for New York
early last November on the business
deal which was cOnsummated today.
lie was closely followed by Mr.. Heinze.
Since then many reports had been re-
ceived that a deal was pending, but
no official announcement of the fact
was made until today, when the deal
was concluded.
The transaction involves property
valued at many millions of dollars. No
intimation was received here today
/ from official sources as to the terms
Of the deal. 1t is only known that he
also has sold all his interests in Silver
Bow county and that he has been COM
pIetely eliminated from the copper
mining operations of this district. His
properties have been acquired by in
terests friendly to the Amalgamated
Copper company.
The deal concluded today settles for
all time the litigation and disputes that
