NEW DISPLAYS COME IN
Mining Exhibit Constantly In.
creasing In Size and Excellence.

Among the new displays received
this week at the Mining Exhibit build
ing, are lot Of fine looking ore from
the Carr mine on Foots creek, seyeraI
large pieces Of crude graphite from
Swede Basin and some specimens OF
cinnabar from Picket creek. New
displays are being received from time
to time and the exhibit is constantly
increasing in size and excellence.
The rooms are daily becoming more
and more popular as resort for those
interested in anything that concerns
mines and minerals and the register
shows rapidly increasing daily at
tendance. To the stranger from the
east or from other parts Of the Pacific
coast, the exhibit Is convincing
demonstration Of the excellence of
Southern Oregon as mining country.
Sylvanite ore. carrying 81 to the
pound, quartz. bearing free gold in
values Of thousands Of dollars to the
ton, and fifty per cent copper ore in
quantity are arguments which are
hard to dispute and the mute evi.
dence OF good ore exhibit will be
found to counteIsct very largely the
misconception of Southern Oregon as
a mining district, which has been
fostered by the persistent reference
to 1t as pocket country" a saying
which is refuted by far more tangible
and convincing arguments than
words.

PLACER ON COYOTE CREEK
Plant to Be Installed on Promis-
ing Property.

+. D. Milton of Ashland, and ". S
Love of Portland, who. together
with ]. W. Thomasson, are owner.
Of the Blue Channel Mining & De-
velopment Company, are making ar
rangements to have a hydraulic plant
put in on their claims in Robinson
Gulch on Coyote Greek in the Wolf
Greek district.
This property, consisting of three
placer claims, was prospected six
weeks ago and proved so satisfactory
that Messrs. Milton and Love bought
in with Mr.. Thomasson, the original
locator, and formed the company
named above. At present force of
men is employed cleaning out bitches
and sluice boxes. preparatory to COM
mencing work with enlarged facili-
ties, and at the same time house is
being built for the accommodation of
Superintendent Thomasson.
"A number of hydraulic proposi.
tions are to be opened up this fall in
that district" said Mr.. Milton re-
Gently, "and it appears as if Coyote
Greek would be one of the coming
sections. Many prospectors have
come in because of the reports con-
corning Sucker Creek, and now they
are turning their attention TO prop
ertiesin our vicinity. We have hadh
dry season, but that gives us good
hopes of having eopious rains at an
carly date, and for that reason we
are anxious to get our plant in work

The long continued smoky season
and the great number of forest fires
now burning have brought the sub.
Ject OF better forest protection into
unusual prominence. There is little
doubt that the next legislature will
enact some changes In the fire laws
but there is also little hope that these
changes will be in the right direction.
IL Will probably yet take some years
OF experience and the destruction Of
much valuable timber to convince the
Legislators of the entire error of the
present system. which is based on the
theory OF keeping all fire out Of the
timber forever, an absurd impossi.
bility. The longer fire is kept out of
the woods the more destructive the
fire when 1t does come, as 1t certain.
ly Will In time. The only way to
protect the forests is by frequent
burnings, the fires OF which will not
develop heat enough to injure the
larger growths. This idea prevails
among experienced woodsmen, bat
not among those who control legisla.
tion. The probable amendments to
the fire laws now In force, will be to
make them more stringent and to
exact heavier penalty for their vio-
lation.
