PATENT FOR BLUE LEDGE
Rumors sa\ that road will be
built to Mine soon
I
Robert S Towne this week rec eived I
from the government a patent to 520
acres of land covering the site of the
famous Blue Ledge copper mine. For
five years i>lr Towne has endeavored,
to secure the patent but each time:
some difficulty was encountered which
had to be overcome. The patent is.
dated Jan. 8. 1912.
Upon the granting of this patent
has hinged the future development of
the mine and the other properties in
that region. The owners were un
willing to erect smelters until the pa
tent was received and without smelters
and adequate means of transportation
it was considered folly to attempt ¡I
further developments of the mine.
It is stated on goed authority that
a million dollars’ worth of ore has-
been mined and much mere blocked
out.
Well confirmed rumors from reliable
sources state that a road is to be built
from (his city to the mine and verj-
likely on to the coast. In this connec
tion it is stated that the bonus ot
?2GO,COO heretofore offered to anyonis |
who would build a road to the mino !
has been withdrawn, which would in- ,
dicate that the owners had made other
arrangements to provide transporta
tion, very probably will build the road
themselves.
A WASTED LIFE.
A man can have no greater de
lusion than that he can spend the
best years of his life coining all his
energies into money, neglecting his
home, sacrificing friendships, self
improvement and everything else
that is really worth while for money
and yet find happiness at the end.
There is never happiness in such a
selfish life.
