This property, owned by what is known as the Salmon Mountain Coarse Gold Mining Com pany, of which Orvil Dodge, one of our widely known and respected pi oneer citizens, is secretary and man ager, has been in a state of active development for five years past, and there are at least indications of abundant reward for the efforts put forth. Rut little has been published with reference to the mine, yet the pe cuniary benefits resultant from the work carried on have long been felt by business men of Myrtle Point, Coquille and elsewhere. The wri ter bad recently the pleasure of a visit to Salmon Mountain, and his vague and half confident concep tion of what was there to be reveal ed was very effectually strengthen ed soon after arrival. There is no longer any doubt that the company have a good thing— a big thing, in fact, when the machinery requisite in reducing the ore shall have been installed, the advent of which will be tbe signal for increased pros perity, permanent in its nature, in the southern part of Coos county. Salmon Mountain, and there is a commanding view of the surround ing country during transparent at mosphere. A tributary of the Co quille river flows near. The prop erty is well watered, and an abun dance of timber is at hand. The comp.my has at present a small quartz mill, pulverizer and concen trator; also a saw xrill of minimum capacity, all operated by power furnished from a six-horse steam engine. A blacksmith Bhop and as say office also stand among the cluster of buildings that ornament the tlevation. In the country ad- jueent are several smaller mines and prospects, all of which appear to be bringing their owners good returns. A visit to Salmon Mountain at this season of the year is well worth the pains of the sightseer, a journey that mining men of experience in particular make when on a trip through the county. We opine that the near future will show the place to be one of the important gold-producing properties of the rich and developing West. C ounty C ourt P ro ce e d in g s Continued from last week.
