Two (2) on the same lodo as the Golden Dream and the Cpokano group are located. All properties situated Just north of the Threo Lodes property, a r.ood wagon road has 'been constructed to and onto' the property from tho town of Gallce, a-dlctanco of two a'd one half, miles) Por the amount of work that has been done, tho property hns a good showing. Tho company claims that ore In sight on all the eight claims, and v.'hcro ono fork of Gnlico cuts through tho Big Yank lead, It bIiowh tho lead to bo threo (300) feet In width, and tho outcrop up tho hill side "shows a thousand (1000) foot of ore In depth. The tunnel Is In ore at the start. Cuts that have been run on several other places, on tho property havo a good show ing of oro, that assays from $5.00 to $12.00 por ton. Good water rights and power sites on tho property. Plenty of water to drive all machi nery that would be required to work tho property. Tho ore bodies can be tapped with ti'.nnols drlvou from a 1000 to 1500 feet In depth and with cross-cuts and up-ralses. A large amount of ore can ho blocked out and taken out through tho tunnel at a great deal less expense thnn hoist ing up through shafts. There Is timber on tho property sufficient for buildings and mining purposes and that It Is tho greatest mineralized zono In the west. The AInmeda mine Is located on tho Big Yank lead, north 'of tho Threo Lodes mine, also on the north sldo of Rogue river. This company linn blocked out and in sight a large quantity of ore. Thoy have several miles of tunnol work. Tho Rand, located on tho same lead just across tho river from tho Ala meda on tho south sldo of tho river, Is patented proporty. What devel opment work has been dono hns tho samo showing as tho AInmeda. Tho OrloU located on a lead run ning parnllol with the Big Yark and called tho Orlol lead, has four thou sand (1000) feet of tunnol work and much ore blocked and in sight. Their last shipment of ore to tho Tacoma' smelter netted him $205 por ton. This, property Is located Just north of tho Threo Lodes mines. They havo cut their lead from wall to wall two hundred nnd ten (210) feet In width and threo hundred (300) feet deep. A largo numbor of mines are lo cated in tho immediate locality; among thorn nre tho Golden Wedge, Sugar Pine, Spokane, Black Bear. Carlton Group, nnd Golden Pheas ant. All tho abovo mines have either machinery installed or nro developing and getting ready to Install machi nery best adapted to their particular ores. In each case, where tho com pany, or Individuals, hnvo cut their lead3 or driven Into them tho vnluos have materially increased at dopth nnd it is claimed that tho Gallce camp has passed tho experimental stago, Tho Carlton mine located Bouth of tho Threo Lodes on tho Big Yank Is a very promising proporty. The Sugar Pine Joins tho Threo Lodes on tho south also, nnd rich ascays are re ported on this lead. Mayette Jones, a. mining engineer of note, formerly of Now Mexico, now employed by tho Orlol peoplo as en gineer in chargo of that mine, says there Is not a question of doubt, the ore carries good values.
