What Makes for True Christianity

poor understanding of the moral
problem involved? Is the outward
sign of church membership, profession
and the like of greater worth than
grand, good living? Is not the in
visible church far greater than the

the orth Of righteousness, which in
any nation, or age is always acceptable
with Himp The work Ct all churches

has a heart and nina to do tn Sc

NEW COPPER MINE
ON PANTHER GULCH
A Big Vein Opened Rich in Coo
per and Colds Part of South
ern Oregon Copper Belt.

Henry Booth was in Grants Pass
Monday and brought 400 pounds of
sample ore from newly opened vein
on the right fork of Panther guloh,
a tributary of Big Pickett creek, and
placed it in the mineral exhibit room
of the Grants Pass Miners Associa-
tion. This ore is from the Peacock
claims Of which there are three in
the group, and are the property of
Shattuck, Harding g. Brubecker,
lately from the East and who are now
at work developing their claim.
They have cut of 30 feet on the vein
and they are now sinking a
shaft. The vein has a surface show
ing Of 30 to 90 feet in width and as
says of $40 to sl5 III copper and gold.
This vein is an extension of the vein
on the nine claims held by H. E.
Booth and which lie three-fourths of
mile to the north. All these claims
are part of the great copper belt
that extends north and south through
western Josephine and jackson
counties and along the east border of
Curry county and on into the
Siskiyou and Del Norte country, and
which embraces the Takilma, Blue
Ledge, Preston Peak, Galioe and
other big districts. There is every
reason to believe that this belt will
become one of the great copper pro-
ducing districts Of the United States
and will contain a score or more of

Price of Mining Claims Too High

. ]. A. Malm. who has been looking
over the mines about Grants Pass for
some time, left Tuesday for Port.
land, where he will spend a few
weeks. after which he may return to
Southern Oregon, or go to Northport,
Wash, where he was extensively en-.
gagged in mining. Mr.. Malm thinks
There are good mining possibilities in
Southern Oregon. but that the de-.
velopment of the country is greatly
retarded by the exhorbitnat price at
which mining property is held, and
by the big payments and short time
allowed by claim holders to persons
who would develop their property
under bond. Mr.. Malm holds that
were claim holders more reasonable
in their terms that the country would
be developed faster aud they would
realize more for their property than
they are likely TO if they continue
their present short sighted policy.

 Chances

Whiskey is a medicine, and no other medicine compounded has acquired such good results when taken as q medicine or stimuIant. There are three kinds of whiskey, good whiskey, ordinary whskey and bad whiskey. Good Whiskey is good sometimes ana bad whiskey is no good any time. Why take chances in drinking poor whiskcy when you can buy the goou kind here for the price or less than you pay elsewhere for the poor kind. and the kind refer to is made and put up by diStillers whose reputation in the whiSkey market is unquestioned.
