MORE SEATTLE MONEY
"A. B. Ernst Negotiating for
The Virginia.

A. B. Ernst, mining man from Se-
attic, was in this district last week, look
ing over the situation with view to in
vesting. He il now negotiating for tho
purchase of the Virginia.
About Il year ago this property was
bought by Mcssrs. Butler and Mitchell,
of Baker City, and company was or.
ganizcd to operate il, but owing to some
internal discord, IL IL reported. the en-
terprisc has languished and now the
mine IL for sale.
The Virginia IL one Of the old proper
ties Of this district, and from it much
gold was taken in years past. 1t IL said
10 have produced the richest ores that
have been taken from the Blue noun
tains. II has not been worked for some
years past and its shaft is now filed
with water. II has many feet of work
ings and its known ore bodies are far
from being exhausted.
Mr.. Ernst is an old newspaper man,
but left the business about two years
ago to engage in mining and has met
with much success. He has been iden-
titled with the Great Northern company,
operating n copper property in the In
dcx distrsct, in which he has been asso-
.ciated with some of the leading business
men of Seattle.
They are rustlers, those residents on
Puget Sound, and il means much good
for eastern Oregon to have them invest
Ing In the mines Of this section. Here
tofore they have been operating In the
Cascades, where there are doubtless ex.
tensive mineral deposits, but enormous
capital is required in order that returns
may he secured from the ground; and
In far off Alaska, where "the other fell
low" has invariably made the big stake.
Mr.. Ernst il the representative Of the
third Seattle syndicate who has been
here within two weeks, and all have re-
cured properties. This is the proper
place for that push TO do business, and
they are hereby officially notified that
they will bc heartily welcomed to the
gold fields Of eastern Orcgon-where in
telligent effort has never yet scored
failure In the mining business.

Oifes $4,000 a Month Rent for Claims.


The White Pine News, published at
Ely, Nevada, tells In recent issue of an
offer made by an eastern syndicate to
pay 10000 a month rent for copper
property in that region, for a term Of ten
years, or q, ,40O, 600 during the life of the
lease. The property is 100 miles from a
railroad, is not extensively developed
and carries average values of only 1885
a ton, $3.50 in copper, $4.95 in gold and
$l.SO In silver. In this region Of pre-
vailing low prices for mines, this propo-
sition seems to be remarkably favor
able one for the owners, yet 1t has been
refused. The newspaper story bears
every indication of being authentic and
accurate. Several Sumpter mining
men, John Cupid and others, own
group of ten claims in the Pueblo dis
trict, in Harney county, that makes a
much better showing than does the Ne
vada property, that could probably be
secured on more favorable terms. These
claims are only 10 miles from the Cen
tral Pacific, connected by rail with an
excellent wagon road. The ore carries
t25.75 in values copper $l5, gold 1924
and silver $4,5l, difference Of $500 in
tavor Of the Oregon mines.
