Train accident on the mainline and a Granite Ore mine find
A derailment occurred when a train jumped the track but was quickly realigned at the main switch with no crew awareness. Trains were diverted until repairs finished. Postmaster J. D. Hart’s son in Granite Oregon, F. M. Hart, along with Tom Lynch and Bill Sanford, reportedly found a quartz gold vein about 12 miles long yielding around 475 dollars per ton with a grass root assay of 12.40 dollars. The mine lies four miles from Granite. Hurt is a hotel clerk there and the find brings relief to his friends.
