of the SOUTH mean where there Is
touch of the modern and a touch OF prog

men OF progress are beginning 10 appre-
ciate the advantage of having a class ike
the colored men there. They are anxious
that they have an industrial education.
They are anxious that they should make
their way in the world and show their
usefulness in the community.
Don't Mean What They Say.
The truth is that the greatest hope
that the negro has. because he lives
chiefly in the south. is the friendship and
the sympathetic interest OF the white men
with whom he lives. Il know 1t is not the
habit to think so, but 1t is growing. and
one of the things that mseads us most
is the desperate. the extreme state
ments OF white men from the south on
what they say. They are the last people
that want to be taken literally. They
thave theory that It may give them
sometimes a little boost politically to talk
| in extremes and superlatives. but / have
heard expressions from leading negroes
lin various cities that confirm my 5udg-
ment that the situation is growing bet

Rev. Dr. Walker. that negro who went
| abroad and preached In Spurseon's pull

! pulpit, express his friendship for the
white people Of Augusta. where spent

| the proposition that the negro race should

said they were mighty well satisfied to

Il say these things with a good deal of
emphasis because / know there are many
who dispute the wisdom Of large contri-

much perplexed with the argument to

what is the fact? There are four uni.

ROCK VERY RICH
IN FREE GOLD
ORE FROM LOWER TUNNEL ON
WILSON MINES ellTTERs
WITH COLOR.

John II. Wills On of Middle Valley
was in town Thursday with splendid
specimens of rock from the new
tunnel on his claims in Wilson
Basin. The rock shows extraordinary
richness in free gold, and IL appear
ances are not deceptive will assay
many times richer than the upper
tunnel rock.
These two claims. quite well
known for several years as Big
Dick and Little Joe. have been de-
veloped steadily since filing, and now
promise a rich reward for the faith
of the owners. Wilson basin lies
between the South Fork and the
Minam, just above the headwaters
Of Bear creek. A per cent road
less than two miles long would con-
meet the head OF Bear creek canyon
with the mines.
So far two 50-foot tunnels have
been driven and 20-foot shaft. From
the old or upper tunnel the rock
assayed 81 to 50 in gold, 6 to or
8 per cent copper and a trace OF
silver The new tunnel taps the
ledge 125 foot below the old one, and
the rock Is incomparably richer. An
assay of 1t win soon be had.
A creek runs across the property
and on one side Is a lake of 40 acres
in extent. Water rights have been
filed on the lake where a small
tunnel would give great fall. furnish
ing abundance of water power.
Associated with Mr.. Wilson in
ownership of the claim are DR.. 4. T.
Anderson and A. C. Weaver of Enter
prise, Willis Jackson of Grelton,
Ohio, F. G. Conley of Stayton and
Mac vetters of Middle Valley. They
say no company will be formed, nor
stock be for sale, but that develop
ment work will be carried along as
a partnership affair.
The claims are just across the
ridge from the big copper mines of
the Contact company.

WALLOWA NOW ON
AMUSEMENT MAP
TENTED EXHIBITION OF UNCLE
TOMS CABIN COMING TO
ENTERPRISE.

AT last it is coming. A big tented
exhibition of Uncle Toms Cabin will
eXhibis in the several towns of wal
Iowa Valley. Only real genuine, Bring
circus and menagerie is now lacking
to put this region on the amusement
map in due and formal style. After
many years of isolation, Wallowa
county has been discovered by the
amusement world, thanks to the rail
road.
Everybody has seen Uncle Toms
Cabin but everybody will go to see
it again. For SO years it has been
the most popular play on the stage
and its drawing attraction seems to
increase as the years go by.
For long time it held the boards
from one week to several months
yearly in the leading theatres of the
largest cities. For many more years
it was the money maker for all rep
ertoire shows. Then came the era
of tented exhibitions, such as Stet-
sons and the grand old play took on
"a new lease of life. The best of
the tented shows give not only a
good presentation of the play, but
with the horses, ponies, donkeys,
bloodhounds, chariots and tableaux
floats are pretty fair-sized menage-
rie as well, increasing the interest
vastly for children.
The show billed for Enterprise,
Joseph and Wallowa week after
next is Burk's, long recognized as
the leading organization of the kind
now on the road. 1t comes In Its
own special cars, with Pitchers
famous concert band and orchestra,
and includes a contingent of high
class vaudeville artists. The date in
Enterprise is Tuesday, August IL,
with two performances and free
street parade.
