There is some talk of the Gold Belt development and reduction company resuming operations within the next few months, which, if true, will be good news to those interested in the company. It is well known fact that the Gold Belt is among the best properties in the Morenci district, being located in the section where much gold has been discovered in past years, and having developed on it's own claims good tonnage of good average grade ore. Just what the plans of operation will be has not yet been made public, but it seems to be fact that something will be doing before many days pass.

Clifton Man Sizes up Globe.

Archie Morrison, superintendent of the Arizona Copper company con contractors at Clifton, spent several days of last week in our neighbor camp of Globe, where he made a personal inspection of the Old Dominion shelter and also visited several of the big copper mines of resided in mining camps for years, consequently he is capable of collect ing obseryations at glance. In an interview with an ERA reporter he wonderful activity of the Globe camp, which he acknowledges to be on a boom, though Globe people are com plaining of dullness. eff we had one fourth of the Globe boosters in Cliff ton we would have the greatest cop per camp in the territory" said Archie. "Globe's producers are limited to a mere handful, while over here in Clifton we have a dozen or more, and though our production is more than double that of Globe all you can hear is Globe, Globe, Globe" The Globe district is practically taken up and the activity of that camp seems to be caused by the large amount of capital that is being spent by companies prospecting for ore.
 "Why we have many idle claims in the Clifton -Morenci district that are far ahead of some of the big prop critics in the Globe camp" ''I do not wish you to understand me as knock ing Globe, for I am glad that camp is prospering, but I cannot understand why some of the copper people don't get wise and do some prospecting in the Clifton-Morenci district"
 While in Globe MT. Morrison met number of old Clifton people, all of whom he reports as doing well.

The management of the South western development and reduction company, having under control the property of the Polaris company, is going ahead with development work, though no reports have been made of any new and rich strikes. Frank Bacon, who has been very successful in developing and operating various mining claims, is now looking after the work under the management of Dick Franz, general manager of the company. This property is located up the Frisco river in the GreenIee district and promises to assume the proportions of heavy producer some of these days.

Having sold his Drift creek ranch
last Spring Mr.. Day has been on
lookout for investments and has
already bought the Anderson place
and the Grant Weist place. Mr..
Days reinvestment in Lincoln
county land shows conclusively that
he has proper insight into the
real estate proposition. Most of the
others who have sold out here have
taken the money into other counties
for investment. Mr.. Day has also
bought several choice lots in Wald-

Hello! We are not new comers.
but Just what used to be Salado

shouldn't we have a new name.
Some of us do not like the name
Salado. We have brand new
schoolhouse here on the bank of the
Big Elk river. We all live here on
the riverside where the bend forms
| a V, and all the pupils in school
begin their names with a V, so
what more appropriate name could
we choose?
Mr.. Folmsbee and son, Vivian,
returned from the Willamette valley
Sunday, where they had been for
nearly week for the purpose of
replenishing their herds. They
brought back four fine Jersey COWS
and a mule.
The directors met at the school
house Saturday and constructed
some benches for recitation, etc,
put ventilation boards in the win
dows, and fastened down the patent
desks so the pupils cannot turn
summersaults backwards.
William Davenport bought fine
herd of goats last Monday of Mrs.
Winskill of Elk City.
Fred Neal and family arrived

Saturday to visit the latter's par

MODERN IMPROVE
MENT COMPANY
A Much Needed Company Or
ganized to Operate on
the Bay.

Articles of incc rporation for
new company to be known as the
Modern improvement Company
have been filed with the Secretary
OF State. The intention of this
company is to build and operate
steamers, piledrivers, derricks, etc,
on Yaquina bay. The company is
incorporated for the sum of 80, 900,
with Messrs. George G.. Walker. c.
w. Davies and Hugh Corigan as
the incorporators. They have one
steamboat nearly completed, which
will be launched next week. As
soon as this boat is launched it will
be put into service on the bay and
will do general passenger, freight
and towage business.
1t is the intention of this com
pany to put steamboat on the run
from Elk City to Newport and re-
turn. This boat will have a regular
schedule, stop for cream, produce,
passengers or in fact anything that
you wish to send and on the return
trip will bring your groceries back
to your very door. AS soon as this
boat is launched work will be begun
on huge pile driver and ten-ton
derrick, the scow to carry this
machinery will be 20x70. Mr..
Walker informs us that they have
government work enough ahead to
keep this piledriver busy several
months.
The derrick will be used in load
ing and unloading lumber, to re-
move the snags from the bay and
river, etc.
Such an enterprise as this has
been needed on the bay for a long
time and we predict success to the
new company and better times and
more business on Yaquina bay.
See Dalaba, at Elk City, for your
dairy farms.
See R. A. Arnold for apple boxes.
Special rates for fifty or more.
Order your base ball outfit and
fishing tackle of Newton& Nye.

Jake Johnson has gone to Sheri-

is as cheap as it can be sold here
and hauled from Sheridan or by
boat.
There are lots of fish wasted at
Siletz cannery now. The cold
storage take no fish under 1S pounds,
the small ones are thrown away.
Why isn't this waste of fish stopped?
A person cannot catch salmon to
eat without a license, but those cold
storage and cannery men do as they
please and the fish warden sits back
and says nothing. What is the use
of spending money running hatch
cries and then when the fish are
raised kill them and throw them
back in the river because they are
not large enough to suit Elmore &
Co. for cold storage.
John Dickens has received fine
pup. He sent to Heppner for him.
He is wolf hound and dandy

in big game when John gets him
trained. He is only two months
old now and he eats all the grub
John can buy.
Mr.. Mcmillan is still hauling
lumber for Mr.. Merslar's house at
Siletz Bay. He is building a nice

his homestead, the place Sim Bur-
ton claimed for three or four years.

Big Increase in Building

tive 1--WE Of this country. A year ago the
country was still feeling the effects of the
blow which came with the panic of October,
1907, while a glance at the totals shows
distinctly that this country, insofar as
building construction is concerned, has not
only returned to a normal condition, but is
even surprising the high records pre-
viously established, the best and most con-
venient Illustration being the record of
building in Chicago for March, which was
far ahead of any previous corresponding
month in the history OF the city. The
figures, in detail, are as follows:
