logy, it is not unreasonable to
expect that marked changes in
the Pacific coast line of North
America will be observed as a
result of the recent disturbance
in California.
1t is a logical deduction from
the foregoing that a severe
earthquake is not likely to be
Immediately succeeded in the
same locality by another of equal
magnitude. If, as we have seen,
the west coast of the American
continents is undergoing a con-
tinuous elevating process, and
the rock masses exist under a
constantly increasing tension,
an earthquake may be regarded
as evidence of the release of the
strain and the consequent i'm
munity from shock for some
time to come. The newly-formed
portions of the continents and
those portions still rising may
be regarded as passing through
cycles in which are periods of
slowly increasing rock pressure
or tension eliminating in a col
which marks the end of
one cycle and the commence
ment of another.
The world is still forming in
obedience to laws which have
been operative from the begin
and our knowledge of the
manner of it's formation is only
to be acquired by the careful OBJ
servation of the action of the
present geologic forces. That
the. works of man should suffer
devastation from these forces is
regrettable but nevertheless in
evitable when placed where the
work of nature is not complete.
Undoubtedly the exhibitions
which we now witness in the
days when the formation of the
earth is nearly complete, are as
nothing compared with the cat
aclysms which marked geologic
time and produced results which
cannot be accounted for by any
force or agency with which we
are now familiar.

In the future development of
the mineral bearing zone at Loon
creek, according to information
which was released by Samuel
Newhouse is to be an active par
ticipant. To this end he had
interested himself in as many as
twenty locations on which work
is to be inaugurated at once, and
if there is another Lost Packer
to be had in that locality he is
after it. The expert examina-
ton to which the properties of
which he has taken hold was
subjected has induced him to be-
lieve that such another achieve
ment is possible, and he will de-
velop accordingly. 1t is said
that the transactions when com.
pleted will involve a larger sum
than has been dealt out in the
locality and that already there
has been exposed on some of the
properties in the deal ores iden-
tical with those of the Packer.
In addition to the deal, Mr..
Newhouse has a number of 9TH
er properties in hand, and while
he has not exploited it, it is said
that the representatives of no
one are engaged in a search
more jealous than are his. That
he is crystallizing plans that
mean more for the diggings than
any that have been conceived by
him is known, indeed, by not q
few,
