WIRE GOLD IN
RAMSEY Mine

RAMSEY, Oct. 24.-Through a
strike of wire gold on the Hawksnest
mine, it is believed this camp will
forge rapidly to the front as a ship
per of high grade. The property is
owned by H. Talterman, who pur-
chased it some weeks ago from the
Ramsey brothers.
The shaft is down only thirty feet,
yet it has a ledge three feet in width
which runs 800 to the ton in gold.
This discovery has stirred every man
in the place to more active prospect
ing and several other properties
have been located and will be worked
az once. The ore is a quartz por-
pnyry and occurs in the contact be-
tween andesite and diorite.
The paystreak on the Hawksnest
shows considerable width and one
piece of ore taken out by Halterman
shows free gold from across room.
The chunk is two feet by six inches
aud the wire can be seen practically
through the entire mass.
All mines in this district are active.
The Rather No. now is down 200
feet, half of which distance has been
accomplished since the property was
acquired by Carl Krug and H. Good
win of Oroville who have a bond and
lease and are using their own money
to sink the shaft. They are working
6ext to the Ramsey Comstock, which
latter mine has shipped seven cars OF
ore recently that netted $40 to the
ton or $14,700 for the shipment.
The control of the Ramsey Com.
stock is believed to have passed into
the hands of Wingfield and Nixon and
a mill is being erected to treat the
ores. The shaft now is down 36(
feet. i7WW
On the same ledge 500 feet NORTH
Of the Ramsey Comstock, the Ram
Soy Ophir has been sunk ESQ feet
ard it is the intention of the leaser'
to go $50 feet more before crosscut
ting into the ledge besides which
they are working. The mining is be
ing done ON the foot wall and thu
shaft is inclined at the same slope al
the ledge.

PRIME PACKERS
FORM COMBINE
Contracts Outlined for Both JObbers
and Growers.
All Large Shipping Firms in North
west Included - Arbitrary Terms
Made-SettIement of Disputes No
Longer Left to New York Fruit
Exchange.

Salem, Or, June Representative
Of all the prune packers Of the North
west met here last night and organized
an association for mutual protection
and promotion Of the interests Of their
business.
The organization is one that has long
been desired by some Of the packers,
but which could never be effected here
tofore for the reason that competition
among packers has been too severe. In
the season now about TO open, the pack
ers will work together for their com
mon interests. The association will
control all the Northwest prune pack.
Among the packing houses in the or
ganization are Fl. 5 Gle & Co., VIII
lamette Valley Prune Association and
W. G. Tillson < Co., all Of Salem; the
ROseburg packing houses, owned by Gle
& Co. and TillsOn & Co., Allen = pack
ing house, Of Eugene; Lang & Co., Of
7, Portland; Mason, Ehrman & Co., OF
Portland; French Packing Company, Of
Myrtle Greek, and the packing house at
Vancouver, Wash.
The new association has formulated
two forms Of contracts which all the
firms in the combine viii use. One
contract is that 10 be used in selling
/ fruit 20 eastern buyers, and the other
in buying from local growers The
packers have determined that they will
no longer sell according to forms Of
contract put out by eastern buyers,
/ but viii dictate the terms Of the con
tract or not sell at all.
The new contract contains a number
of provisions favorable TO Oregon pack
ers. It gives the packer unlimited
choice in selecting an arbitrary case OF
dispute where, as in the past, the arbi
traitors have been chosen from the New
| York Fruit Exchange. The new con
tract gives the packer the privilege Of
filling his contracts with smaller size:
Of prunes if the crop produced does not
contain the required quantity CT large
sizes. Il gives the packer the right e
route the fruit in shipping. 1t exempti
the packer from liability in ease ship
ment is delayed by congestion Of
traffic.
1t provides that in case OF Dispute
as to quality, samples for test shall b
taken from one-ffth Of the boxes o.
fruit; that no allowance for sh0r
weight shall be made unless it amount
to more than one per cent, and that il
the counting test the size 5. all ineiud
the seventh prune and not the fftl
only, thus, that AZ prunes shall b
|, deemed in the 1880 SIZE and not 4
only.
The new form Of contract with grow
ers will be very explicit in requiring
growers TO deliver fruit cured in a first
class manner. free from all burned o
, slaek-dried fruit. The packer is to b
sole Judge OF quality and there IS to
no arbitration in ease Of dispute.
The packer is to have the right t
;; weigh back TO the grower any frui
slack dried or otherwise unsatisfactory
: The packer will not be required to tax
more Of a growers crop than 10 pc
cent in excess Of the quantity estimate
in the contract. but the grower mus
J deliver all his fruit if the packer d.
mands it, regardless of how much
Overruns the estimate.
