""'1 - Sheriff of Multnomah County "One Good Term Deserves Another" (Paid Advertisement) ZIN IN OREGON STATE JfERY PROMISING FEATURE Southwestern Section De stined to Rival the Ozark Mountains, Says Expert. PORTLAND AS THE CENTER J. Q. Johannes Bays He Could Guar antee Enough Ores of Own to Keep a Smelter Busy. That southwestern Oregon Is del-1 tlned to become as famous for its zinc production as the Ozark moun tains of southern Missouri is the pre diction of J. O. Johannes, a Portland) man who has extensive prospects and who is now beginning active develop ment. He is now in northern Cali fornia, where the same ore veins ap pear. "If Portland were as aocustonjed to thinking In terms of mineralogy as it is to thinking in terms of town lots, the world's biggest smelter would be located here and Portland would be the mining center of the west.- said Mr. Johannes. "I could guarantee enough ore from my own prospects to more than keep a melter busy, to say nothing of the hundreds of other mines and prospects that would furnish materiai from southern Ore gon alone. Eastern Oregon is also extremely rich In metals. There cer tainly is a great opening here." STAMP MILLS TO START Property on Eaglo Creek Will B Opened Up. J. A, Thronson and his son-in-law, W. D. Duncan, Baker mining men, have gone to their mining property on iLgie creeK, after having spent the winter In town. They are pre paring to start up their itamp mills to handle the ores from their prop erty, which Is considered one of the richest potential prospects In , the state. The big, task confronting Thronson and Duncan this spring is the instal lation of a tramway and electrically driven ore cars from the main ore bodies to the bins. The buildings at the mine consist of the mill structure Itself and a number of cabins - for employes, blacksmitu shop and a nine room log bungalow, which" is equipped with modern conveniences. The mine is five miles from the celebrated Cornucopia group. This portion of eastern Oregon is coming into note also as a summer resort with splendid opportunities for camping, hunting, fUhing and tramp ing through the mountains. 'CANNEIi" COAL DISCUSSED Polk County Deposits Given a High Rating. "'""rr'T of "cannel" coal have been discovered In Polk county near Crowley station. Tests made at the Oregon Agricultural college Indicate that the coal is of good quality, with suggestions of the likelihood of oil and natural gas may not be far away. Can nel coal is a variety which is rich In volatile hydrocarbons. Its chief use is for the enrichment of gas. It oc curs rather sparingly in this country, though In several states. The coal has been found near the Cass Rtggs farm, where a gas well has already been supplying fuel for light and cook ing In the Kiggs household. MINING NOTES To Ship Soda Soon. First shipments of soda from the Alkali lake district through Lakevlew and south over the Nevada, California & Oregon railway PRODUCTION are expected to begin within the next few days.

COPPER OUTLOOK IS GOOD Organisation of More Companies on Sound, Financial Baal Is Urged by Director S. H. Parks. Profits in mining are Increasing from year to year, partly because of the increase in the number of mines and partly because processes of ex tracting minerals from ores are being continually made more perfect and economical. H. M. Parks, director of the Oregon Bureau of Mines and Ge ology, made this statement before the members council of the Chamber of Commerce at its weekly luncheon last week, adding that Oregon Itself is rapidly coming to tShe front as a mining state. As an example of the money to be made in mining under scientific man- 9mnL Profsor Parks Dolnted to the Union Companion mine in the Cor nucopia district or eastern uregon, which, tte said, last year paid in divi PROFITS Things that were impossible yester day are today's accomplished facts. Somewhere in the world someone with special knowledge, special experience, special equipment, gets ready and then startles the world by accomplishing the i seemingly impossible. Almost everyone said that a complete automobile of beautiful design, fine finish, the ideal small, light, economical car, built with quality materials and absolutely completely equipped, could not be built to sell for $615. And but for Overland special knowl edge, special experience and special equip ment, it probably would still be one of the impossibilities instead of an accomplished fact Probably no other organization in the world can produce the quality and effici ency equal of this car to sell at anywhere near so low a price. Certain it is that no other organization is doing so. J. W. LEAVITT Broadway at Davis The Willys-Overland . "Made dends more than the whole investment to date. Professor Parks made a plea for the Organization of more mining com panies on sound financial basis for the intelligent development of the enor mous resources of this state. He said the copper of southern Oregon . is destined to take rank with the world' best, both in quantity and quality. Ho raid the whole mountain region is full of metals and minerals of all kinds. But. in spite of these facts, it is hard to interest Oregon people in the possibilities and Investors are corning from afar to take up problems that people here at home are underesti mating or overlooking entirely. . Professor Parks gave some sta tistics showing that tHe Unlted States produces 40 per cent of the world's output of coal; 6 per cent of the pe troleum; 40 per cent of the iron; 60 per cent of the copper and 32 per cent of the lead and sine. He said that, while the agricultural and lumbering industries supply but 22 per rent of the nation's freight tonnage, the mining industry furnishes 60 per cent. The mineral industry furnishes em ployment for 2.300,000 men. while agri culture employs 13,000,000 men. Com parison of these figures shows that the product per capita of employes is larger In the mining Industry than in agriculture. It Is probable that the members' council will consider the mining propo sition again at a later meeting. Keligious Council Formed at Eugene University of Oregon, Eugene, Or., May 13. Organisation of an Interde nominational religious council was er fected at a recent meeting of towns people, faculty and students-. The purpose of the council as given in the constitution adopted are: First, to con duct a university Bible study campaign And no other car ever produced seems so exactly to suit the requirements of so varied a lot of people. People of wealth, people of modest means People of long automobile experience People who never before owned a car All find in the small, light $615 Over land their ideal car. It has the beauty, comforts, conveni ences, power and complete equipment which everyone wants. Yet it is inexpensive to buy and eco nomical to operate. See the Overland dealer and get ac quainted with this car. But act now, as this car stands alone and the rush to own them is amazing delayed action is almost sure to mean a long wait for delivery. & CO., Distributors Phone Broadway Company, Toledo, Ohio ia U. 8.
