tratIon officials manifested impatience

wss unavoidable. There appeared to
be complete agreement among men,
bers Of the Mexican cabinet, Il was In
dicated, that orders 70 General Trevino

any direction except toward the bor-
der be reafiirmed. Some de faeto off,

shorten the distance from Eugene to
klamath county points and to make q
new route for tourists from that sec
ton bound for California. is being con-
sidered in this city. Arrangements
have been completed for taking the
question up with the County court next
week at its regular July term. The
present route from Eugene to Crescent
is via Mckenzie Pass and Bend, a dis
tance Of ITO miles. The proposed
route, in connection with the old milf
tary road, would make the distance
from Eugene to Crescent 100 miles and
would have the effect Of routing the
tourist through Cres-

that It is known that owners Of large

that railroad from here in westerly

A PROMISED LAND
NEVADA AND NEiGHsOh 81 q ES
REPORTED ON BY TIE
GOVERNMENT

Continental surfaces, as a general
r,ia are drained by streams flowing
,o the ocean, but there are some ex-
centional areas which have not out
ward drainage The great basin Is
such an area. 1t was so named by
Fremont who was the first to gain
an adequate conception of its charac-
ter and extent. II lies near the west
ern margin OF the continent and is
surrounded by the headwater divides
of rivers tributary to the Paciiic
ocean.
Roughly, the great basin is bounded
by the Rocky Mountains on the east
and by the Sierra Nevada on the west.
II extends from Oregon on the north
to and beyond the Mexican bound
airy but is limited by the drainage
system of Colorado river on the south-
east. II contains 100000 square niles
an area about equal TO that OF France.
The great basin Is a region OF diver
sifod surface features, including maj
desert valleys and rugged mountain
ranges with many lofty peaks. IL Is
not, as the name might suggest, q
single pan-shaped depression, gather
ing its waters to common center
but IL divided INTO II idlSt huliDei VI
independent drainage areas.
Arid plains are abundant in this re
gion, and some are so extensive thai
they appear almost boundless. The
climate OF the region is very dry, the
average annual rainfall varying from
10 to IL inches in northern Nevada to
less than inches in the south and
southwest. In the spring the barren
looking soil brings forth a truly sur
prisng variety Of beautiful and dell
cate flowers, most of which disappear
entirely as the parching heat Of sum
mer comes on Timber or even trees
of any kind are, as rule, exceeding
ly scarce. Herds OF small wild horses,
or mustangs, roam over some OF the
less frequented mountain ranges, but,
like the ubiquitous coyotes, they are
shy and are not likely to be seen from
the train.
Mines of the precious metals are the
principal source OF wealth in the
great basin. and in connection with
their development towns have been
built in out-of-the-way places, many
of them high on the bare mountain
sides and far from water and food sup
