MINERAL LAND CLASSIFIED.
Pay Dirt Must Produce More Than
Blend Colors, Says Decision.


Blend Colors, Says Decision.
Roseburg, Or.-Government land
must produce gold in paying quanti-
ties, and cannot be characterized of
mineral value by showing of merely
blend mineral colors, according to a
decision handed down in the Roseburg
United States land Office. The de-
cision probably ends for all time the
case instituted by the Federal govern
ment against Irvine Gardiner, Of
Myrtle Creek, and involving 40-acre
tract of land on Lees Creek. Gard
liner holds the land on it's timber and
agricultural valuations.
The contest against Gardiner was
instituted following an investigation
on the part of the Federal mineral in
spectors, and was watched closely by
hundreds of homesteaders in this Sec
ton of the state. Evidence was in
troduced regarding questionable oper-
atoms of the j. G. Lee Mining COM
pany.
In summing up the land officials say
that: the land held by Gardiner has
never yielded gold in paying quanti-
ties, but that it yielded money to
the stockholders through the sale
of stock, particularly when oper-
ated by the J. C. Lee Mining COM
pany; that the mere fact of colors of
gold having been found is no evidence
that such mineral prevails in paying
quantities.
