| RHYOLITE, New, March 1.-THE
mystery that has been shrouding the
operations at the Gibraltar mine on
! Bonanza mountain during the past
| three weeks, when visitors were barred
from the workings, was cleared up this
weeks with the arrival on the ground
of j. e. Wier of New York.
Mr.. Wier who is one of the principal
owners of the property and a member
of the firm of Wier Bros. of New York,
paid visit to the mine the morning
after his arrival in southern Nevada,
and after his return from the property
was closeted with John Largent who
represent the Ray interests of Nevada
and the Governor Waters interests OF
Philadelphia in Rhyolite.
| After the conference it developed that
Wier had come west in response to a
telegram from the mine superintendent
reporting the opening of a vein of $10,-
900 rock in the Gibraltar workings
Buy Up Stock
AS soon as Largent and Wier held
their conversation both men began the
purchase of Gibraltar stock from local
holders, and within a few hours large
blocks of the stock were bought in.
Even before the discovery the Gibrai-
tar was one of the best properties in
the Bullfrog district, as the railroad is
within 200 yards of the dump where
hundreds of tons of ore are stacked
awaiting shipment to the Salt Lake
smeters.
Before leaving for New York Mr..
Wier was interviewed, but refused to
discuss the conditions existing in the
Gibraltar aside from saying that he
was much pleased with the showings.
In regard to other properties Mr.. Wier
was not so reticent, and told of pros
pectiVe purchases in the Lee district
that will run we'll beyond the six figure
mark.
After Mr.. Wier's departure, Mr.. Lar
gent said:
"Wier is more pleased with the Bull
frog district than he viii admit, for he
has been a heavy purchaser of stocks
during his visit,
Represents New York Interests
He represents large New York in

An HONEST PACk.

The financial situation has been a
primary cause of slump in the apple
market all over the country, yet the
effect has not been felt in fret grade
Hood River apples. While reports
come from New York that "Oregon
apples are selling from 20 cents to
Sl.25 a box. " they are not Hood Riv-
er apples, but those from the other
sections which are "as good as Hood
River" Second grades from this sec
tion, however, ale not bringing as
good a price Il, was expected before
the New York banks held up the mon.
ey of the country andsput the west on
a holiday basis. Portlsnd Front street
is full of apples, mostly from the Will
lanette valley, and the commission
men say that the trade Is looking for
apples for the local markets which
they can buy fot 70 cents 10 dollar a
box, mostly at the former price. 1t
is also the clearing time for the bulk
of the poor keepers and fall apples,
and gives the market surplus at this
time.
The bulk of the Hood River crop
has been marketed, although there are
a good many in the Davidson ware
house yet to be shipped to New York.
Reports from Burt VaE Horn to the
Davidson Fruit Co. say that notwitb-
stand ng the dull market for the ordi
nary good, bad and indifferent stocks
of apples from other sections, the
market for Hood Rivers has not de-
cIined. tie Gays that Hood River Is
shipping practically the only good ap-
pies coming into New York, and Is
the only section from which apples
are being received without being over
hauled, strictly examined and oulled
out.
There has been some criticism here
as to the rigid inspection at the Dav-
ids0n warehouse to see that the apples
are strictly first class, well packed and
true to color. There never was more
sharp line drawn in New York than
has been the case this year between
choice and only fair. This rigid in
speoton here has been the difference
between profit and loss for the David
son company, and has maintained the
reputation of Hood River fer an hon
est pack that must be maintained at
all cost II we would continue to hold
he record for the highest priced ap-
pies in the world. AS long as we con.
tinue to send out apples which will
pass the most rigid inspection and al
ways found up to the high standard
maintained in the past, we need have
fear as to the future. Itsgives the
Hood River label a copyright value
which will never be infringed upon by
any other "Oregon apples. " The
difference this year has been as high
as two dollars box. Ii means an ad
ditional value to Hood River orchard
land of several hundred dollars an
acre. 1t means that there viii never
be an overproduction of apples In the
country as far as Hood River Is con
cerned.
While there Is a constant increase
in the acreage of apples in Oregon
and Washington, as we'll as other sec
tions west If the Rocky mountains,
yet the east and middle west Ia prac
tically going out of. the apple business
and to such an extent that 1t is
doubtful if the west will ever be able
to glut the markets of the world.
