Relics Found by

The Dalles, Or, Nov. 9.-That
important archaeological secrets of
great value are still probably con-
tanned in the earth at Big Eddy,
near Cello, and that the matter of
further excavation will be taken
statement today of George III.
Hines, curator and assistant secre-
tary of the Oregon Historical So
ciety, who yesterday made COM
plete investigation of the relies
thus far uncovered and also of the
site where they are being found.
Mr.. Hines said that the histori-
cal society had no funds with which
to conduct private excavations, but
that he would endeavor to have the
state highway commission complete
the excavations and turn the re-
suits over to that body for scientific
Investigations.
Date Back Ages.
The relics found thus far are
hundreds and perhaps thousands OF
years old. according to Mr.. Hines
and many Of them are of great
archaeological value. Many speci
mems, of which the historical So
ciety has no copy, have been un.
covered thus far, Mr.. Hines said.
Stone weapons, idols, paint pots
and various implements were
shown, to Hines as evidence of the
| discoveries already made. Many OF
| these relics are duplicated at the
historical society museum, but
many others are entirely new and
of great archaeological Importance
Hines said. He was not interested
| in a stone image of what is pre-
,sumed to be the sun, which was un-
earthed by workmen grading the
| Columbia river highway at this
point. The curio is believed to
have been worshipped as one of the
idols of the ancient race.
Hines said that he is convinced
that a race of people inhabitated
the northwest prior to the time OF
the Indians and that the indians
copied their stone weapons and inn
plements from their prehistoric
people.
