Some of those who heard Mr Gads- den’» talk about the Santiam mine», Wednesday night, got the impiV"i"D that the smelter would not I«- built until a considerable amount o* work had been done on the mines. This i» entirely erroneous. Mr. Gadsden pointed out the necessity of the com panics being put in condition, finan cially, to carry out their contracts;but asserted that the smelter would be built anyway, and work would begin on it jusi, as soon as the road was com pleted: and that the salary of the smelter superintendent, Mr. Vail, would begin with the year 19011. Mon ey is needed for the road and power plants, but with the stock already sold and the way in which stock sales keep up, this is now assured, though more money is still needed. Mr. Gadsden pointed out the fact that the smelting company desired very much to make the first six months on the best ore that could be selected Irom the mines, in order to advertise%he district with a magnificent showing. As to the amount of ore now available, a few figures will show that the mines are abundantly able to furnish under the present state of development, unlimit ed quantities of it. I will take Free laud to illustrate , th e matter, as I am more familiar with that than the otli er mines. The Freeland lias an ore body from seven to fourteen feet wide. There are two tunnels running up the ledge on this vein, one about 125 feet under the other. This work shows a body of ore that is l>00 feet long by 25'» feet deep at the deepest point Taking the pitch of the* hill this will make a body of ore 300 by 250 feet or 75,000 superficial fete.
