TO DEVELOP
COAL MINES
TALENT COAL COMPANY NOW
READY TO GO AHEAD.
HAVE PERMIT TO SELL STOCK
Talent Coal Company Now RecOg-
nized as Bona Eide Enterprise
Under Recent "BIue Sky" Law
Cliff Pierced 126 Feet.

The Talent Coal Company has re-
ceived it's certificate from the state
of Oregon permitting them to sell
stock for development purposes. The
new law is very strict and prevents
any wildcat manipulations, and is as
surance to Would-be investors that
the corporation is on the square so
far as a close scrutiny by the state is
concerned.
The Talent Coal Company was or
ganized last year by local men who
became interested in the development
of a coal deposit on the north side
of Bear creek about five miles from
Talent and an equal distance from
Ashland. They have pierced the cliff
with tunnel 126 feet long, and
have followed the vein that distance
from it's outcropping. The vein is
overlaid with a self-supporting sand
ttone roof and underlaid with shale.
No effort has so far been made to
sink a shaft through the shale floor,
but old-time coal miners believe that
the best deposits of the coal lie be-
meath the shale..
The gentlemen who have so far
developed the find are Messrs. En-
nett Beeson, Peter Vandersluis,
Louis Brown and E. B. Adamsan.
They had been working on the prop
osition all last summer until water
compelled them to cease late last
fall. They did not feel able to take
the money out of their private busi-
ness enterprises under existing con-
ditions, to complete the work, and
so incorporated with a capital stock
of $4,000, of which practically hall
is paid up. The balance is held as
treasury stock, to be sold for the
development of the mine.
The company has the mineral right
to a half section of land and hopes
by the sale of about 81 500 to $4,000
of treasury stock to be able to put
in pumping machinery so that work
can be done the year around and to
push the tunnel still farther along
the vein, which is increasing in size
and improving in quality as they pro-
ceed.
The development of the coal find
would mean much to the valley as it
would not only mean the employment
of labor and the maintenance of a
successful business enterprise, but
what is far more important to the
valley would help to solve the fuel
problem.
The fuel problem is the great prob
lem of the valley. With the cost of
heating a home and running the
kitchen for an ordinary family in
Sunny Southern Oregon" exceeding
that in ice-bound northern Minneso-
ia, the problem becomes of great in
terest from domestic standpoint.
Not only this alone. The develop
ment OF good coal mine in the val
ley would do more toward the solu-
tion of the problem of the utilization
OF the kaolin beds and other mineral
resources than anything else posi-
bly, could.
Anyone interested should see some
OF the above named gentlemen and
let them go further into the details.

COLA RECEIVES 81 CARLOADS
OF RAILS.

According to a news article which
appeared yesterday in the Meridian
Dispatch, the Meridian and Memphis
railroad has just received twenty
seven cars Of 60-pound steel rails and
will begin tomorrow to lay the tracks
from Meridian to Union. on the New
Orleans, Mobile and Chicago railroad
The Meridian and Memphis railroad
will probably form one of the links
in the Memphis and Pensacola rail-
road, which is now under construction
northward from this city. The latter
road is being backed by W. P. Dick
inson. Of Chicago, and northern cap
ttalists.
The Meridian and Memphis has also
ordered locomotive and a number of
fiat cars, the Meridian Dispatch con-
tinues to say. which will be used in
the construction of the road.
In addition to this all but a few
miles Of the grading has been COM
pleted, and there remains now some
grading to be done on a large hill
about twenty-five miles from the city.
A steam shovel is at work now grad
ing this hill and the entire work of
grading will be completed in about two
months.
All the cross ties for the entire road
have been gotten out and have been
paid for. Arrangements are under way
for the building Of a depot at Saqua-
lena, and the town is soon to be laid
out in lots.
The building Of the overhead
bridge across the railroad tracks in
this city is making very good progress,
the approaches are being built and
some of the overhead work has already
been done, Hotchkiss and Company
have the contract for the steel work
and Newell and Wright for filing in
the bridge This bridge, when COM
pIeted, will be 11,400 feet long, which
will be the longest overhead bridge in
the south. The work of building the
Meridian and Memphis is now so near
completed that no one any longer
doubts that it will be in operation this
summer. 1t is generally conceded that
this road will be of great benefit 20

Keighley concern, the United Company
is charged with employing alleged I'M

cessfully.
The petition points out that the con-
tract gives the United Company ex-
elusive right to put out on lease all
the "inseam trimming machines" own
ed or controlled or hereafter made or
acquired by the Keighley Company.
The two corporations agree not to en-
courage any other person or corpora

except In accordance with the terms of
the contract. While the Keighley
Company retains the right to sell the
machines, the contract prohibits it
from accepting a price less than $3.50.
The Keighley Company is required un-

United Company for every rapid in

The contract was entered into only
last September.
