Sale of a half interest in the Lucky
Boy mine in Kastern Lane County, and
one of the best producers in Western
Oregon, virtually was completed yes
terday for & consideration of $100,000.
The group or Portland capitalists who
have held the property for the last four
years will continue in possession of a
full half interest. Several Seattle and
Canadian investors have acquired, the
other one-half and propose to begin im
mediately to develop the mine ex
tensively. In addition to paying $100,
000 for a half of the stock they have
ngreed to invest an additional ?25,000 in
improvements.
Contracts have oeen let for driving
the main tunnel on the property a dis
tance of 100 feet, it now is 800 feet
long. A crew of men will leave Eugene
tomorrow morning to undertake this
work.
Mill to Be Overhauled.
Meanwhile some additional machinery
will be assembled on the ground and
a modern plant installed. The old mill
a 40-stamp plant will be verha-uleO.
and a new system of ore treatment will
be installed.
The new owners plan to operate the
mine and mill as long as the weather
will permit and expect to make steady
shipments.
The Lucky Boy is an historic prop
erty. It has been under development
for the last 38 or 20 years, producing.
in that time, approximately $500,000. It
is situated on the Blue River, a branch j
of the McKenzip, in the heart of the
Cascades, 45 miles east of Eugene. It
is accessible only by wagon or automo
bile road.
The property has had a checkered
career of varying fortune. Four or five
years ago the then owners sought to
develop it by a bond issue of $220,000.
They defaulted in interest payments
nd the bonds were sold. A group of
Portland men acquired these securities
at a heavy discount. They satisfied
other claims and thn proceeded to
organize the Lucky Boy Consolidated
Alines Company. The following Port
land men now are the officers of this
corporation: President. T. V. Tilford;
vice-president. Grant Phegley ; secre
tary and treasurer. Cord Hengstake; di
rectors, A. Neppach, J. W. Morrow and
O. A. Lyman, in addition to the other
officers. Some of the other stockhold
ers are: lr. Holt C W ilson, the C. A.
Alisky Estate, H. C. Leonard. C. T.
Perry and jDavld Perry, the two last
named from Helena, Mont.
Mine Operated at Profit.
i ne present owners nave operaiea
the mine on a small scale every year
and have netted themselves a profit
annually. The gross output one year
whs $JS4,fl00.
The principal product of the mine
consists of a high-grade lead ore. It
carries a heavy percentage of copper,
about one-fourth of an ounce of gold,
and 14 ounces of silver to the ton.
1 n former years the outcroppings of
the vein near the surface produced gold
in free-milling form.
The condition of the ore now pro
duced permits its separation into two
forms of concentrate- lead-silver and
gold-copper. The mill reduces four
tons of ore to one ton of concentrates.
The lead product goes to the Tacoma
smelter, and the. copper to the smelter
at Vallejo, Cal. These concentrates
must be sacked and hauled by motor
truck to Eugene, whence they are
transhipped by rail.
Tailinjsa May lie W orked Over,
T. A. Berry, a well-known Seattle
mining engineer, recently examined the
property and arranged to take over the
half interest .for his clients in Seattle
and Canada. He proposes to introduce
the "flotation" system of milling the
ore. It is probable that the tailings
resulting from the operations in the
free-milling days will be worked over.
Jiany tons of this material now is lyin
on the dump.
One of the principal assets of the
property is a valuable power site, from
which is obtained the energy to oper
ate the plant. The water is conducted
through a flume, rive miles in length,
and dropped against a giant wheel,
through which electricity is generated.
Mr. Berry proposes to rebuild the flume
and the electrical machinery.
The Lucky Boy property consists of
about 14 patented claims in the center
of a rich producing district. The Great
Xorthern, the Treasure, the Blue Bird
and other well-known mines are in thi
same general neighborhood. The terri
tory is readily accessible for any rail
road that wants to build into it. In fact
both the Southern Pacific and the Ore
gon Electric have made preliminary
surveys, but have displayed no further
intention of doing any construction
work.
A railroad line, it is believed,- would
do much to develop the mineral re
sources or that part of the state.

ZA States Senator from Iowa and
candidate for the Republican
nomination for President, will make
two campaign addresses in Portland
next week. These speches will wind
up & whirlwind speaking- trip through
Western Oregon by the Senator, who is
scheduled to arrive in the state from
California next Thursday. May 11.
Announcement of Senator Cummins'
campaign itinerary during the six days
or a week he is expected to devote to
Oregon was made last night by George
C. Howard, head of the Oregon Cum-mins-for-President
organization.
On his way north from California
next Thursday the Senator will make
his first stop at Grants Pass. There
he is to be met by Thomas B. Kay.
State Treasurer and chairman of the
Cummins executive committee here.
After speaking at Grants Pass in the
afternoon. Senator Cummins will return
to Medford and make an address there
that night.
The next afternoon he is scheduled
to speak at Roscburg, and to make a
speech at Eugene in the evening. Ac
cording to present arrangements he will
remain in Eugene overnight. Though
this part of the schedule is not def
initely settled, it is probable that he
will address students of the University
of Oregon Friday, May 12, and from
there go to Corvallis in the afternoon
to address students at the Oregon Agri-
ultural College. That night he will
peak at Salem.
The exact date of Senator Cummins
arrival in Portland has not been de
er mined. He will deliver two addresses
ere, however, the probable dates being
uesday night. May 16. and Wednesday
ight. May 17, two days before the pri
mary election. One of these addresses
ill be held under the auspices of the
Oregon Republican Club, which has al
ready held meetings for Nicholas Mur
ray Butler and Senator Burton, or Ohio,
the latter also being a candidate for
President.
Some over-enthusiastic supporters of
Dr. Daniel Grant are apparently en-
eavoring, no doubt without his knowl
edge, to make the European war an
issue in Multnomah County politics. At
any rate, they have been telephoning
voters of British birth or sympatny

vote for Dr. Grant for Coroner as

for re-election to a second term on the

first term, on the ground that Dr.
Dammasch is a German, and that all

Hies should stand together. As a mat
ter of fact Dr. Dammasch is not a Ger
man, but a native-born American. He
was born in San Francisco in 1H79 and
has lived in Portland since 1S83. Dr.

Frequently manufacturing concerns apply to us for capital.
Some of them are meritorious and deserve the capital they seek.
It is, of course, our desire to render the maximum service for this community our city.
The Chamber cannot sell stocks, recommend investments, indorse private enterprise or serve as a
selling agency for any member, firm or corporation.
It does desire to bring together those wanting capital and those having capital particularly capital
for industrial investment.
More thn almost anything else Portland needs industrial development!
Increased payrolls mean more business for our merchants, stable real estate values and general
prosperity. '
Small industries sometimes grow to a point where they employ many, and are an important part in
a city's business fabric.
How much better would be the business conditions in our city at this time if 5 to 10 per cent of
our total wealth were invested in manufacturing enterprise!
Let us profit by the lessons of the past and turn our thoughts, energy and money, in part at least,
to industrial development.
A payroll dollar goes farther and does more real good than any other kind of a dollar. .

Corvallis. May 6. (special. "The time

after the damage to the trees Is Ir
remedial." said Professor Lovett. the
collep-e entomologist. In discussinp the
danger threatened by a renewed attack
of this most destructive of elm tree
pests.
"Of even more importance than the
necessarv drastic control measure,' he
says, "is preventing the spread of the

its comparatively restricted districts.
If unchecked, it will eventually spread
all over the city and Into other parts
of the state wherever elm trees are
grown. The comparative cost of con
trol now. as against later control or
the value of the elm trees, warrants
earnest consideration of the problem
and co-operation in its solution.
"The clmleaf beetle may be controlled
effectively with applications of lead
arsenate sprays to the foliage of the
trees. Commercial lead arsenate paste
three pounds to 50 gallons of water Is
the proper strength. One application
should have been made just as the
leaves were coming out. to destroy the

The cost of spraying will run from
about 22 cents to iO cents a tree, vary
ing with the size of the tree, equip

water, thoroughness of application and
experience of operators. For Portland
conditions It is strongly recommended
that the work be performed by the city,
