were TillS mines reported which showed
no vield for the year.
The decrease in gold and silver out
,t. is entirely from the quartz mines
mid is occasioned mainly by several of
I he most prominent mines in both cast
ern and western Oregon having been
operated to only a limited extent dur

mines treated was 1SS.274
tons, a decrease of 11, W4 tons from the

crease in output of placer gold of 101l,
SMi ver the year 1M5. The most pro
ductive county was Jackson, with an
output of l30,m4 for the year, though
this closely followed by "'
eountv with a production of l!i.ll.
None "of the other counties made a yield
of as much as III(I,0(IO from tins source.
Ml the eastern Oregon mining camps
show a decrease in output as compared
willi 11105. Jackson county, in southern
Oregon, shows the largest increase in
output. No new camps of prominence
,vere developed during the year nor
were any new railroads built winch af
e ,i il,,. tnininir conditions.
The decreased output of copper was j
,, to the difficulty in obtaining coke
for the smelter of the Takilma Smelt
ig company at Waldo. The coke is
hauled by wagon from 0 rants lass.

Medford Publishing Company.
The Medford Publishing company is
composed of reputable busincBB men of
Muit'ord. who have backed their judg
uiont with their money. It is incorpo
which only part has been nubscribed.
The balance is treasury stock. Of the
rated for $10,000 capital stock, of
slock already issued, a majority is in
the name of G. Putnam, editor nnd man
agor. There is no "water" in the
slock, it all represents money actually
paid in. The by laws of the company
provide that the editor and manager
alone is responsible tor tne cuiioriiu
ami busiuivss policy of tho paper. The
dirnctoia of tho concern are tho follow
ng well known business men of Med
nnd: W. I. Vnwter, V. Osenbrugge, J.
Kiddy, II. C. Kloddard, ('. It. Kay,
il. Putnam. R. O. Hinith nnd J. It.
Olwell. All of these gentlemen, with
the exception of Putnam, took stock
merely from a public-spirited stand
point, to secure for Medford a good
laily newspaper. None of them exer
cises any control over the poliev of tne
plipiV.
Not a Sneculation.
If you are looking for speculation.

von can put in your dollar and be sure
of getting it out ngnin with good inter

The Paper's Future.
.,r...,t fmiir.. lies before this conn
ir- mi, I before this newspaper. The
property is built upon business lines
and run upon business principles, its
liolicv is progressive, forceful and in
dependent. Its manager has had many
years' experience in practical newspa
per work. The newspaper properties
owned are humid to be great news
papers, because 1 lie repr.-s. in u
whole people and standing lor tne peo
ple, will l.e supported by the people.
The dailv has grown wonderfully since
Hi- pn-o-iit manager took charge. He
found a bankrupt institution with noth
ing but debts, ill-will and prepaid eircu
l.-iliou. It was out of favor with the
public and with the advertiser. Look
at its columns today. It is ill favor
with both the public and th Ivertiser.
Tlie i h.-itige has been wrought with but
little money, in a very short space of
time. A still gl enter change will be
