The region has produced, according to the most re­ liable estimates that can be obtained, upwards of $60,000,000 in gold, but, owing to the ease with which the gold was garnered in the early days, efforts to develop a property beyond the local en­ richment were rare and naturally, with no reserve ores blocked out, the reports soon became current, when the local enrichments began to become scarce, that the mining days of the region were over. In addition to this phase of the situation, the very richness of the region was its undoing, as unscrupulous promoters took advantage of the great chunks of almost pure gold that came out of the local enrichments referred to, and sold worthless mining stock the United States over—worthless because the major por­ tion of the money was rarely legitimately used to develop the mine, but rather used to pay “Irish dividends”. The natural re­ sult of these two situations was the building up of a wall of deep- seated prejudice, both locally and in other sections of the country, against mining in southwestern Oregon—a prejudice that serious­ ly retarded the development of the whole region. In 1923, after a serious study of the situation, a group of men interested in the full development of the region organized the Southwestern Oregon Mining bureau, and for three years car­ ried on a continuous campaign of legitimate publicity in the local papers of the district as well as the reputable mining journals of the Pacific coast, with a view of breaking down this wall of prej­ udice, and to inform mining men generally of the actual value of the region as a mining district. This systematic campaign of pub­ licity is now bearing its fruit, and southwestern Oregon is begin­ ning to receive the attention of organized mining money, with every indication that the prediction of a well known mining engi­ neer of the Pacific Northwest, who spent four years investigat­ ing the whole district, that “Some day southwestern Oregon will become the greatest mining camp the world has ever seen," will become a reality.
