Coming From Dakota.

7. N. Oium arrived in Grants Pass
Tuesday to spend week with his
son, @. o. Oium, manager for Jose
phine county for the local telephone
service of the Pacific States Telephone
& Telegraph Company. Mr.. Oium is
from North Dakota, where he is en-
gagged in farming near Lisbon. He
states that while they had an open
winter and no heavy storms or bliz-
yards, yet the spring was backward
ard tho farmers were busily seeding
when he left last week. Their work
was not progressing very rapidly as
the nights were SO cold that frequent
ly it would be 10 o'clock in the fore
noon before the ground would be
thawed sufficiently to enable harrow
ing to be done. Mr.. Oium says the
farmers Of his section are making
money and most Of them are con-
tented He states that there will be
very great number Of people from
his state visit Oregon this summer,
the low rates to the Lewis and CLARK
fair being the incentive. OF these
fair exhibitors he says many Of them
are coming to look over Oregon with
a view of locating and he thinks
Rogue River Valley will get a good
share of the homeseekers and in
vestorg.

BUILDING AT OREGON BELLE
Mill Building Will Soon Be Com
pleted and Machinery Installed.

A. j. Pike came down from Jack
sonville Tuesday to spend couple OF
days with his family and to attend
to some business matters. Mr.. Pike
has charge of the work of installing
THE 10 stamp mill that is being
erected at that mine by Foster & Gun
nell, managers for the New York
g. Western Mines Company, who are
the owners of the Oregon Belle. Mr..
Pike stated that they have the lum-
Der all sawed at the mill, which is
part of the plant, for the quartz mill
building and other buildings that
may be needed. This week the work
of framing the building was begun
and Mr.. Pike expects to be able to
get the frame work up next week and
with large force of men to hurry the
completion of the building, which is
to be of 10 stamp capacity. One car
of machinery arrived last week
and another car of machinery will!
arrive next week. The work of in
stalling this machinery will be begun
in the near future and it is expected
to have the mill running within the
next three months.
Mr.. Pike stated that development
work was being pushed day and night
with two shifts of men for each of
the two lodges that are being opened
up Two power drills are being
operated by steam power compressor
to facilitate the work of blasting.
Both lodges have been crosscut at low
depths, each has shown an increase
in both width and values. This
development work has been carried
on steadily for the past eight months
and the fact has been established
that the Oregon Belle is certain to be
come one of the big gold producers
of Southern Oregon.

"PLAY EAST FOR SUCKERS
Eastern Capitalists Think West
erners Do Not Play Fair.

william Bailey, the well known
mining man, arrived in Grants Pass
Sunday to spend a week with his old
friends and to look over the present
mining situation in Southern Oregon.
Mr.. Bailey is operating in mining
property in the gold district of Van
couyer Island and also in the Ross
land district in British Columbia.
He says that the mining business up
north is in most hourishiDg condi-
tion. The British districts have not
been blacklisted in the money centers
of the world, as have those ON this
side of the line, by wildcat promoters
and consequently capitalists are more
free to invest and develop the mines!
Many of the properties are low grade,
but of very large size. Smelters are
used to handle this ore and so perfect
has the process been brought 10, that
some of the smelters are able to treat
ore at cost as low as SLIGO per ton.
This small expense is only attainable
at mines that have self-huxing ore
and can get cheap fuel.
Mr.. Bailey spent last summer and
fall in the East and in Europe,
making his principal stops at New
York, London and Paris. Of the work
of the ubiquitous and ever-smooth
wildcat promoter, Mr.. Bailey said he
found evidence of it in the Eastern
states and in Europe. So many men
had been swindled by these sharpers
that in New York he had the COM
plant continually thrown up to him
"That you Westerners keep all the
best investments at home and give US
only the trash and we are tired Of
being played for suckers" In Lon
don, that Mecca for the promoters OF
the world. both legitimate and fraud
ulent, and in Paris Mr.. Bailey heard
the same complaint of the unscru-
pulous work of the dishonest promo
ter, only there the charge was broad
ened to include all Americans. Mr..
Bailey thinks the new California
law, to punish persons who misrepre-
sent by reports and otherwise mining
property, is a move in the right di'
reotion and is a law that should be
adopted by all mining states.

A Peculiar Gold Specimen.

A rarity in gold specimens was
shown In Grants Pass Monday by
Prof. J. p. Mcdonnell of Glendale,
1t was a piece of serpentine rock of
about five ounces in weight that was
made up of alternate layers of gold
and OF rock. The gold was in sheets
as thin as sheets of paper extending
entirely through the rock. The yell
low sheen OF the gold and the dark
green of the rock made blending Of
colors that made the specimen a
very handsome one. This sample
was from new ledge recently opened
by E. H. Yansey and Roy Garauppe
five miles from Merlin, but the exact
location is not made public for the pres
ent by the owners Of the mine. An
open cut of 90 feet deep at the back
end has been made along the ledge
and the showing as the samples
show, is exceedingly satisfactory and
the development will be continued
until the full extent and value of the
ledge is asoertained.

Ajax Making Good Showing

A. E. Kaiser returned Sunday from
the Mt. Reuben district, where he
was for a couple of days looking over
some mining property. Mr. Kaiser
reports r. Williams, who owns the
Ajax mine, has been steadily carrying
on development work on that mine
for some months past and he now has
fine lot of ore both on the dump and
in the stope. Mr.. Williams has his
mine equipped with steam power
o-stamp mill and he will begin mil
ling ore in short time. He has SOC
feet of tunnel opened and the ledge
now shows a clear width of 10 feet of
high grade ore.

level grade, no place to exceed one
per cent. The greater part Of the
distance the road will be on an ancient
gravel bar rendering grading and
ditching unnecessary. 1t is nearly all
on improved land with only brush
to clear away. For short distance
the road will pass through the culti-
waited land OF J. p. Duncan, a new
settler and a progressive farmer, who
last year moved and bought the Stein
er farm, formerly the Espy place.
The road will pass through one side
of Mr.. Dunoan's orchard, bat he asys
he will ask no damages from the
county and will do the further unusual
thing for an Oregon farmer by re-
building his fences along tile new
road and of grubbing up the apple
trees that will be in the way at his
own expense. The change In the
Grave creek road as advocated by
Supervisor Light would shorten the
distance to the railroad for the set
tiers in the upper part of that valley
nearly mile and would give them a
section of level road instead OF having
TO climb up long hill and then down
again and to also climb several in
tervening hills and some of these hills
have grades as steep as 10 and IL per
cent. The need for five bridges and
long culverts across canyons will be
done away with thus making saw
ing to the bridge expense Of the
county. This old road is over clay
hills and it gets to be mud hole in
the winter and there is no rock con-
venient to gravel or macadamize it.
The change of route in this road is in
line with the policy of the county
court in having the roads put on
routes that will be permanent aud
which will eliminate all the, bridges
and heavy grades possible and put the
roads on routes that will be the least
expensive to improve and to keep in
repair.

, SOUTHERN OREGON MINES :

equipped. The power heretofore nsed
has been a gasoline engine, but gaso-
line being too expensive 1t will no
longer be used and electric power will
be installed so soon as the Condor
Power & Water Company get their
electric transmission in operation on
the line that they are now putting in
between their power station at Gold
Ray and Grants Pass, and which
passes within half mile of the
Homestake mine. 1t is stated that be-
fore the mine is again started up
that five stamps will be added to the
mill, making a 10-stamp mill. This
mine has been operated in small
way from time to time for several
years past and it has shown up we'll
for the development work done and
there is every likelihood that it will
become a good producer and be sub
stantial addition to the mining indus
try Of this section.
