Mining Report
Given To Pilot
Bob Gcitrer (’aine
Across Talk Given
At Mining Convention
Of especial interest to residents
of this area is the m ining report
which was found by Bob Geiger,
who last sum m er was s ta te lily
inspector, and now at P ortland,
who ran across this report. In
sending it to the Pilot, he said
he figured it m ight be p ractical
even today, and certainly of in
terest. The re p o rt:
Given by Hon. 1. N. Muncy, at
P o rtlan d . May 31, 1911, the re
port reads:
It is w ith a degree of pleas
ure seldom enjoyed by your hum
ble sp eak er th a t I have in ap
pearing before you not alone
because I have the privilege of
talking about the m ining pros
pect? of the g reat sta te of O re
gon, but because of the audience
{ have before me, coming as
they do from so m any of the
g reat m ining states of our coun
try. T ru e it seems to me th a t I
am a little out of place, a fte r
listening to so m any able speakers
as you have. But, nevertheless,
I have som ething to say and
som ething to talk about and th a t
som ething is C urry county and
her future. C urry county has been
abused and oppressed as no o th er
county in the sta te of Oregon,
nor. as for th at, as for no o th er
county in any sta te in the union.
H er com m ercial in tere sts wiped
out. held up as a highw aym an
holds up a stage and robs the
occupants of th eir w ealth, be
cause of th e ir w eakness or lack
of population. But the day is
not fa r d istan t when she will
have a g re a te r population and
twice the w ealth of even M ult
nom ah county today.
And th a t is not all. Seven-
ten th s of the county has been
covered w ith a forest reserve
thereby keeping settlers out and
aw ay from one of the finest cli
m ates on the Pacific coast, and
■ w hen I say th at, I would say in
¡th e U nited S tates. Besides this,
1 we have as fine w a te r and tim
ber as can be found anyw here.
Our w ater power is simply u n
limited. and o u r tim ber equal to
any to he found; also a rivet
w ith a salm on industry second
to none, save the C olum bia in
the w est. E xcepting only as she
is th ro ttle d by men and laws,
think of it the w ealth in money
and food she m ight produce. It
seem s to me th a t th ere is no
thought w ithin the range of h u
m an conception th a t could m ake
men feel m ore despisable than
when depriving a man, men, a
