PURCHASE
SITE FOR
NEW DEPOT
Ex'Mayor Waters DevOIves
Plan by Which Salem May
Secure a New Passenger
Station

Since the legislature failed to see
the speculative value in the PROPOSE
tion to purchase the three-quarter
block of property lying east of the
capitol building for future use of the
state, at $4,000 for which an OPP
tion had been previously obtained,
or, at least saw fit to kill the senate
bill providing an appropriation for
its. purchase. former Mayor F. w.
Waters has conceived the idea and
will start an agitation to buy the
property by subscription by the peo-
pie OF the city and offer Il TO the
Southern Pacific company gratis up
on condition the company erect upon
the site handsome pressed brick
passenger depot to cost not less than
$4,000 and he is of the opinion
that the company officials will ac-
cept the proposition.
At any rate he intends taking the
matter before the Commercial club.
at the next meeting and make an
effort to start the ball rolling in that
direction, The present Salem depot
is an old and somewhat dllapidated
affair and has long since been an eye
sore and inadequate for its uses and
MIR. Waters feels that, If the plan
worked out successfully, It would not
only be the means OF providing Sa-
lem with an attractive station house
but would afford a splendid view of
the state house and city generally
'It is a burning shame that the
capital city of Oregon is not provided
with more slightly and dignified
edifice for a passenger depot" said
the ex-mayor, in discussing the sub
ject last evening, ''and the location
of the present structure which serves
the purpose very badly, Is not only
very inconvenient but Is the subject
of almost daily comment derogatory
to the city's interests and reputation
by tourists and visitors. II the city
had a handsome depot on the prop
erty referred TO, provided with pret-
ty lawns shrubs and flower beds, IL
would benefit the city immeasurably
from the standpoint of beauty and
convenience for all concerned, in
cluding the legislature, and would
afford an unobstructed view of the
capitol building and the heart of the
city n glimpse of neither OF which
can be obtained at present from pass
ing trains.
Furthermore ! believe the city,
or the people. could probably secure
possession OF the property az a figure
slightly lower than that offered the
state and do not think II would re-
qulre much OF an effort to raise the |
money II the matter were properly |
launched and placed I'm the right |
hands. | also believe the Southern |
Pacific company would gladly accept |
the gift and erect a suitable and |
modern brick structure on the plot !
which would provide Salem with a
depot that would be both becoming /
the capitol city OF the state and bene-
fclal In more ways than one.
/ have been thinking the mat
ter over very seriously since the leg
islature saw nc to turn II down, and
| do not think the state will ever be
presented with another such oppor-
tunity. and | have about made up
my mind to call the attention OF the
club to the subject al
the very next meeting and see II the

/ would get a farm for $4,000 or

Early Day Happenings
80. In Phoebe .-

Page and Panaca M. Co. -Thi
claim is located on Panaca Flat
700 feet westerly from the dis
covery shaft Of the Panaca claim
and from the appearance of the
walls and the character of the
material coming out of the shaft
at depth of 100 feet, it is evi.
dent that the company will soon
strike good ore. Mining men
are cofident that the Black
Ledge, which was originally
called the Panaca., is the hang
ing wall of the Lightner ledge,
which gave great promise of
durability and richness at one
time. This black ledge can be
traced on the surface for half
a mile east, and fully one mile
west of the Page and Panaca
location; and if the Lightner
ledge continues as it shows in
the works it must necessarily be
struck by the Page and Panaca
within the next one hundred
feet. This claim has been in
corporated with a capital stock
of 10000 shares. The board of
trustees is composed of the most
able of the Pacific Coast mining
men. There is now in the treas
ury $1,000 for working purposes.
Gen. Page is superintendent of
the mine, and he will soon be
here to give his personal atten-
ton to the affairs of the COM
pany. The reasonable presump-
lion is it will strike the ledge
inside OF sixty days. We hear
of many inquiries for the stock.
but the owners refuse to sell for
bed rock prices. AS an evidence
of what mining men of exper-
ence and money to back their
Judgment think of the mine, we
will say that such men as A. H.
rutherford, z. Steinhart, N. C.
tasst, Gen. Page and others,
nave invested largely in this
'tock. This, of itself insures the
proper working and perfect de-
'elopment of the claims, and
With work the mine will soon be
made a favorite stock.

lor Waterworks, yesterday in
