THE SUMPTER MINER
HIGHLAND STOCK
WILL BE ADVANCED IN PRICE
MAY 1 5 th, 1903
Development at the Highland Mine Justifies an Advance
in the Price of Stock. It is Much More Valu
able Now Than When We Placed the
First Allotment on the Market
Some Two Months Ago.
CONSTANT DEVELOPMENT AND Every mouth will show a largo increase In our oro reserves.
RESULTS
A crow of men haro boou kept constantly nt work over
eluco wo acquired this property mul tho Glasgow crosscut
has now oucountorod and fully crosscut tho ledge. In
this crosscut wo havo oponod up n body of oro sixteen foot
in width carylng Kood coinmorcial values.
In speaking of commercial values wo moan ores which
haro a sufficient valuo to pay for tho extraction, milling
and all othor Incidental expenses thoroto, with enough of
a margin loft over to pay good dividends to tho stock
holders. This largo body of oro was not In tho nuturo of a sur
piso, wo simply ox poo tod It, as tho surfaco dovolopmonts
showed this samo largo body of oro, and thoro was no
reason why it should not bo oucountorod in this crosscut
and at this dopth.
FUTURE DEVELOPMENT
Wo aro now turning to drift on tho lodgo to tho west
from tho crosscut In order that wo may open up the richer
ores at a greater dopth which aro found on tho surface
throughout tho Hannockburn claim.
Thla lino of development, wo bollovo, will provo very
interesting to all who aro interested, or may become in
terested, iu tho Highland mine as It will certainly open
up oro bodies rich iu quality and in largo quantities.
It will demonstrate that tho Highland will rank as one
of tho largest producers in tho district.
From now on tho development work will bo compara
tively easy and not vory expensive, as wo will bo drifting
along on tho lodgo whoro tho ground is much easier to
work than iu tho country rock which encases tho vein.
FREE TRIP TO THE HIGHLAND
To any one who wishes to Invest a reasonable sum of
money in tho Highland mine, wo will pay all traveling
expenses to and from tho mine for tho purpose of his
making a personal examination.
Iu ottering you n free trip to tho Highland wo fool that
this is proof within itself of tho valuo of this property as
it stands to reason that If wo did not have a good mine
