cial enterprise could bring quicker fl
nancial results than the proposed
sampling works. Immediately upor
it's completion, the wheels would be-
gin to turn the machinery on ore now
ready, and twenty four hours after
those first with ore would receive theil
checks. This will be a continuous op.
GRAFTON. Oroville's location is idea
for the sampler from every standpoint
and it's community will be greatly ben.
efitted by the quick financial results
of the enterprise"
j. w. Douglas: From my knowledge
OF the mining section surrounding and
contiguous to Oroville, believe one
of the most important factors to en-
courage the development of the many
promising prospects will be the erec.
ton of a sampling works at Oroville
1t seems especially adaptable here for
the reason that in the majority of cases
these veins contain portion of pay
ore from the surface SO it will enable
the prOSpector to sort and market a
part of his ores as he proceeds with
the development of his property. The
advantages to the merchants and busi-
ness community of Oroville will be like
wise great assistance in extending
their trade and help in the general up
building of the community, which will
naturally follow systematic mining.
This is esr ecially true when one re-
alizes that in many cases discarded
mining prospects have finally develop
ed into large mines.'
E. A. McMahan: "Sampling works
where the miner and prospector could
take ores and receive ready cash in
return would be of inestimable benefit
to OrOville and the surrounding coun-
try. 1t would put money in circula-
ton, and encourage holders to apply
themselves to developing work. The
proposition should receive the support
and backing of every citizen"
Col. A. M. Dewey: There is no rea-
son why Oroville connot be made a
thriving city within the next ten years.
There is more fruit and alfalfa land
tributary to Oroville than around We
natchee, while the mines in central
northern Washington are practically
all in that neighborhood. Spokane
may continue to be the business CEN
ter of the mining industry of the north
west, as is Denver of the middle west,
but Oroville can be made the Colorado
Springs of Washington and British Co.
lumbia if those interested in mining
will pull together to this end Every
corporation and every individual en-
gagged in this industry should have a
display of ore in some building erected
for the purpose on the main street
near the center of the city. Such a
building need not be an expensive one
but should be large enough for a
bourse, with small rooms for Office
headquarters for twenty or more cor
porations. There is now a revival in
the mining industry everywhere, and
several Washington properties give
evidence of dividend paying quality
and there are enough such mines to
make that city famous as mining
metropolis"
John H. Killian: 81 think that the
sampling works will be a good thing
for the prospector of the district, as it
claims, and will put money in circula-
tion."
e. w. Mallory: "It affords me a
great degree of pleasure to learn of
the proposed new sampling works,
soon to be erected. l believe this is
the right step in the right direction
and judging from my long experience
in the mining regions of other states
other and more extensive works will
certainly follow. l have had much to
do in the mining districts of Butte
Montana, and Leadville, Colorado, and
| must say truthfully that the indica-
tions for profitable mining, at the
same stages of development, are much
better here than in the above mention
ed places. And, Furthermore, an oper-
ating mill right here in Oroville will
so stimulate prospectors and mining
men to the point that soon there will
be enough mining properties opened
up to attract much attention from diff.
ferent parts of the great mining west
Yours with great hopes"
Theo H. Finnily: Believing this
sampling works is the proper thing
and to the prospector it means sue
cess, l would like to see every mine
owner and prospector, as we'll as bus
mess man, give it their hearty sup
port"
Alfred Hagerbery: This samplins
works that is now proposed is one O
the grandest things that could happer
to the country and town, and I hop,
il will be followed up and made ;
success. / am willing to give it m!
support in every way"
| James P. Ellis: 81 am anxious t,
see this sampling works a success
