Wain, Morgan Draper, of San Francisco, man- ager of the Waldo Smelting sTc Mining Company. The dtlsens passed resolutions heartily endorsing the project and pledg Ihg the aid and co-operation of Grants Pass-toward the building of the road. Col. Draper states that bis company has decided to build railroad and. make an outlet for; the product . of neir mines. which are situated' in Southern Josephine County, "and at present are 40 miles from a railroad. He has been Instructed by his company to make a survey of a road from Waldo to Crescent City -only, but the citizens of Grants Pass are prevail ing upon htm to Extend the road through tp this city; they wilt give Mm .right-of- way and terminals, and without any doubt the road will be so built. "We must have ah outlet"- Cot Draper said. "We have conclide4 Jthat .wa.have plenty of good ore 'in our Waldo mines -and it now. remains , for us ,to get it out. We can only do it by building a railroad." Cot Draper will put a crew of survey. ers' to work this week surveying the route for the, hew road. ; The. first -survey wilt be made from Waldo to' Crescent City and a later survey -will be made fron here to Waldo. It will be an electric line and will be standard' guage. The' power . will be derived from Rogue River at this, end. and the Illinois at. Waldo." Tt will be known as the Oregon dk' Pacific RanroaO, built by the Oregon ft Pacific -Railroad Company, a California corporation, and Virtually the same people as those cob- - nected with the Waldo Smelting & Min ing Company, Whilst ,the 'new road will do a general traffic business, "its "prime object will be to make an' outlet or the Waldo copper mines. These great , prop erties though . discovered many ...years ago, have been long held back on account ..of this remoteness from a railroad. ' With the completion of this line they will be put . In direct connection wltb the mar kets of the world, and will be opened up and worked to this fullest capacity, alt .is claimed by competent experts that the vast, copper deposits .of Waldo, are the richest and most extensive in America; surpassing In this regard the noted Ana- .oonda mines of Montana, or the Jeronfe mines of Arixona. , .
