PREPARES TO OPEN OLD
MINE NEAR ESC0NDlD0

Early resumption of mining opera
tions at the ORC Fino mine, which is
owned by Mrs. o. ]. Slough of san
Diego and located less than three miles
east of Escondido, is probable.
Courtney Ballagh, mining engineer
and a nephew of Mrs. Slough, Is to
make an examination of the mine
with a view to ascertaining the cost
of unwatering the old shaft. One of
the plans for doing this is by the drain
age method, which plan is said to pc
favored by Mrs. Slough. The investi-
CATION will require two or three days.
The mine was discovered about
twelve years ago by son OF Fred H.
Roberts, then owner OF the property
who ran upon choice piece OF ore
while making excavations for stable.
Roberts Immediately went into the
gold mining business, the ore which he
produced in the development work be-
ing milled at the five-stamp mill OF
the Cleveland-Pacif1c mine a few hum
dred yards to the south. The results
were such that Mrs. Slough invested
$4,000 in the purchase of the NINE
together with the fourteen acres COM
prising the ranch.
Mrs. Slough and others continued the
mining operations. and 1t is said she
holds mint certificates showing the tax
ing out of $4,000 in gold while she
was the operator.
A few years ago Mrs. Slough sold
the property at the reported price of
100000, while the optional consideration
was said to be $4,000. The owner did
not make good and after considerable
litigation Mrs. Slough again became
owner. Since that time no effort has
been made to unwater the mine, al
though Mrs. Slough has added to her
land holdings in the locality until she
now has $50 acres.
The plant includes a flve-stamp mill.
The 33-degree incline shaft leads to
depth of about 400 feet and is nearly
full Of water. The shaft, however, is
said to be in bad condition.
1t is said Mrs. Slough has surveys
showing 100000 worth of gold ore in
sight.

JACK POT AT WONDER
WILL RESUME IN JULY

WONDER, New, June 26.-It has
been expected that the Atlas company
the leasing company which has taken
over the Jack Pot ground for twenty
five wears. would begin operations i'm
mediately, but the management has
postponed the new beginning till July /.
The plans of the company include
the installing of the big. hoist, the
sinking of new shaft and the build
ing of mill to work the large guam
tity of high grade milling ore already
developed in the mine and on the
dump.
Much of the rock taken out during
boom times, when the company was
shipping to the smelters, while rich,
was not quite rich enough to bear the
expense of the sixty-mile haul to the
railroad, with railroad rate and smell
ter charges, and was thrown on the
dump to be worked later. This ore
will all be run through the company's
mill.

Loose Corporation Laws.
(Sprinofeld Republican.

If the several states had maintained a
decent degree of care in charterlng corpora
lions and restricting corporate capitallza-
ton and other privileges. such meas
ure of federal incorporation as President
Taft is presenting would find few friends.
Maine. Connecticut, New Jersey, Delaware
and West Virginia are the chief offenders
in letting loose upon the country lot OF
corporations which are almost wholly
law unto themselves, and whose plumber
ings through dishonest capitallzatlons ar, are
mainly responsible for a state OF public
sentiment which gives to scheme hike
this of the Washington administration
standing room in the popular favor. There
was the possibility that by standing firm
for honesty in corporate capitalization
few states like Massachusetts might stem
the tide and bring the others back into
line through the force of good example.
But when Massachusetts itself broke away
or bent to the supposed necessity of meet
ing Maine and Jersey competition IN
granting charters, the cause of correction
through state action became well-nigh
hopeless. That is evidently Mr.. Taft's
view. and it is not without reason.
