Southern Oregon Contains Districts as Yet Untouched

ties as the Golden Wedge, the Sugar
Pine and the Lost Flat all of which
have record for amazingly rich
rock.
Mt. Baldy, just south of Grants
Pass. is the apex of rich mineral
field which extends south and east
from that point, embracing the
Murphy, Williams and Missouri Flat
districts. This country is prolific
in gold bearing ledges, and the rich
specimens of quartz gold which occur
in many of the gulches give promise
of yet greater finds to be made in the
future.
The Waldo distrit is becomi ng
famous for its magnificent veins of
copper and here is located the first
big snelter of Southern Oregon. This
district is rich also in gold bearing
rock and though one of the Oldest
mining districts of the county, il yet
offers a most inviting field TO the
propsector. The same is true of the
Josephine and Canyon creek district.
The Dry Diggings, Jones creek
and Bloody Run form district small
in area but large in possibility. A
great deal of gold has been taken from
these mountains and there is more re-
naming to be found.
The Louise creek district is the
location of the Granite Hill. mine
that is rapid ly becoming famous as
one of the best in the state. Other
good lodges have been discovered, are
awaiting development to he made into
mines.
The neighboring district Of Jump
off-Joe embraces among its properties
the Lucky Queen, the Baby. the Orc
Fino and others. This district has
produced specimen gold in quantity
and there il plenty of good prospect
ing within It's borders.
The lower Illinois. Briggs creek,
Silver creek and ChetCo are almost
virgin ground to the prospector for
quartz, while the still more remote
regions of Indigo and Cole Collier
creeks are terra incognita III that
respect. On both the latter creeks,
native copper has been found while
Silver creek has produced pieces OF
nearly pure native tin of which the
source has never been found.
The mild climate and beautiful
scenery, with the abundance of water
and timber, makes a prospecting triI
in any part of Southern Oregon a
delightful outing and the chances Of
success are not surpassed in any min
ing country of the continent.

MADE OF HISTORICAL WOOD
Gavel to Be Ussd by Pre- idins
Officer Mining Congress.

With commendable public spirit,
Mr.. David Linn has undertaken to
provide gaval for the use of the
presiding officers of the National
Mining Congress that is to be held
in Portland, August 90 and 2lst, that
is to have an historical Significance.
The wood for the gavel, Mr.. Linn
secured from a msnzarita that grew
in Rich gulcb, which is located in
the south part Of Jackso nville, and
which is famous in the history of
the gold discoveries on the Pacific
coast as the place where the first big
find of gold was made in Oregon and
which caused the rush to Southern
Oregon in the winter Of lSjl-52 and
which continued for several years
until there were thousands Of miners
scattered over this section Of the
state. Mr.. Linn sent the wood to
Portland Monday to his son Fletcher
Linn, who is president Of the Oregon
Furniture Company, who will have
it turned and finished in his factory.
The gavel is to be encir cled by gold
band on which will be enrgaved an
inscription stating the place from
which the wood and the gold Of
which it is made was obtained. The
gold for the band will be from Rich
gulch, were mining is yet carried on
in small way, the money TO pur-
chase it of the miners being Supplied
the Jacksonville board OF trade.
Mr.. Linn is Jacksonville pioneer
Of 1852 but never has mined though
he has always taken mu"h interets
in the development of the industry
and he considers the presenting Of a
historical gaval to the National
Mining Congress where will gather
leading mining men from all parts Of
the United States splendid OPP
portunity to advertise the mineral
resources Of Southern Oregon. -Js;k

Asbestos Mining.

Asbestos mining is by means Of
open cuts and shallow tunnels, as
rule. Asbestos mines are all shallow,
and it is understood that it does not
pay to follow the mineral to much
depth. In open-cut mining, the
mineral rock is blasted out and the
asbetsos removed from the gangue by
the process known as copbing, which
means the breaking away of the
fibrous materia! from the walls of the
vein or from other ingredients by the
use Of hammers. The asbestos is then
assorted into grades, these depending
upon their length, fneness and flexi-
bility of fiber.
