D. Williams, M. E., direct from their only true source unvar 1 nished and without preparation for publication. Our engineer, deals in facts rather than fiction he knows only what heees and can prove,: and that is what he reports in his own language, as follows: r f : ' I DelatQ, Idaho, 0ot.' 10, 1908, "The Potioie Mining Company, Portland, Ore. . . . - ' Gentlemen: I am getting the rnapa and other things , , , . together just aa fast as possible; but there nas been lots ' of little details at the mine that had to be adjusted, so ' , matters will go ahead as they should on Tunnel No. 1. Our new steel is here and we are getting it out up, so ' as to avoid a shortage and delays in the work. We laid 17 ft. of new Vail today. ' 11 1 think No., 5 would bb the best place for &fessrs. Wood & Hayw'orth to lease, as there haa been more work done 1 there and is a better showing, as there is already ore to work on. the entire length of the tunnel, 140 ft. They have. already done some s toping: up about 8 ft. and the stops is about 40 ft. long. The pay streak shows from 8 to' 14 in., and is continuous to where she is faulted against the porphyry dyke on the north side. This vein is nearly flat and in the Prit chard slate. This is the same vein on which are located the Yosemite, Daddy, Mother ' Lode, Treasure Box and Oooident mines, 2 1-2 miles to the east a,t Littlefield. This ore shows free gold in. spots, some places quite rich,-with occasional variable propor-' tions of pyrite, chaloopyrite, galena and sphalerite. Some ore on the Buckeye Boy, on this vein, runs, as high as 120.5 oz. of gold and 28 oz. silver, but the usual class of ore runs from ten to twenty-five dollars in gold. This mine lays two miles north of us. - A single pocket of ore produced $25,000.00, the ore being crushed by hand in mortars. "I am sending you a few prints that we have made and have some more under way. Yours sincerely, H. D. WILLIAMS, M. E. We are receiving congratulations on every hand for the publication of "Lat est News." . The public appreciates this kind of information, because they know it is simply facts as they exist, and as seen by an engineer whose 18 or 20 years' practical experience qualify him to' prove each fact. He puts in 8 or 10 hours each day on the ground, and is .thoroughly familiar with conditions he sees, he proves and then he knows it. Our stock is fully paid and non-assessable. We are selling 50,000 shares at 25 cents per share for development and improvement of our properties, consisting of ,11 full claims in the Coeur d'Alene Mining District. We have the ore, and are now going after it. Don't lose sight of this property $5.00 CASH AND $5.00 MONTHLY WILL BUY TWO HUNDRED SHARES.. The same ratio of payments will buy a larger number of shares. Write for application blank. POTICIE MINING COMPANY, Roorn 3, Cor. Sixth and Washington. Raleigh Bldg., Portland, Oregon.
