“C. H. Miller, formerly of this place, has taken a claim near Canyon City and is going to settle permanently there. He says the land along the John Day river is being rapidly taken up. In one place, for a distance of forty-five miles, every foot of desirable land is already claimed, and much of it fenced. So says the Mountaineer.
