An Opportunity
FOR
nvestment
Rogue River valley is full of Oil,
Natural Gas, Artesian water and
other valuable minerals.
Nature's storehouse is bulging
out with wealth and only needs the
magic hand of man to unlock and
reveal the hidden wealth stored up
tor tne use ol the Twentieth (Jen'
tury.
Our arid lands will produce won
ders if we once can procure Arte'
sian water to supply abundance of
water with which to irrigate.
Oil and Natural Gas ate the
greatest economical fuel of this
generation. Shall we let it be dor
mant here in Rogue River valley,
while other sections of the country
are usingnature's storehouses?
Oregon cannot be beaten any
where in the world, for natural Gas,
Oil or Artesian water. Rogue River
valley is truly the Italy of America.
Here we have the finest climate, the
best apples, the largest peaches
and the prettiest girls.
Shall the people of Grants Pass
forever continue to drink the slime
and slush and sewage that pours
into Rogue river while we can have
the best of Artesian mountain water
by the very simple process of dril
ling a few hundred feet?
What a beautiful city Grants
Pass would be if there were a stream
of pure Artesian water flowing
along each side of her streets.
It is the intention of The Oregon
Natural Gas, Oil & Mining Co. to
soon begin active operation of dril
ling a number ot wells to the depth
of 1000 feet to ascertain the pres
ence of NaturalllGas, Oil, Artesiau
water and other valuable minerals.
They are now bonding land in
and around Grants Pass. Within
the next six months they will be
drilling on some of the property
they have bonded for that purpose.
They intend if it is possible, to
supply the city with plenty of pure
Artesian water before the coining
fall.
The Oregon Natural Gas. Oil
& Milling Co requests all farmers
aud property holders to give them
the privilege of diilling one or more
wells on their property. They
will give a percentage of the
output of ihe wells to pa 1 ties
granting the privilege.
In order to get the people of
Grants Pass and Josephine county
interested in Natural Gas, Oil, and
Artesian water they will give all of
them a chance to subscribe for a
few shares of the capitut stock of
the companv on very liberal terms.
Suppose you take a few shares of
the capital slock of The Oregon
Natural Gas, Oil & Mining Co. of
the par value of $1 per share.
You pay 10 per cent, down, 40 per
cent, when the machinery is set up
and is ready to begin operation and
the remaining 50 per eeut. when
they strike a flow of natural gas,
oil or artesian watei or have drilled
to the depth of 1000 feet. If they
strike oil, natural gas or artesian
water you have the option of tak
ing ten times as many shares asyou
subscribe for. They will pay you
back all the money received from
you if they fail to drill a well as
agreed upon.
You are invited to thoroughly
investigate their proposition. You
have nothing to lose but every
thing to gain. If you are a cap
italist it is a safe investment. If
you are a farmer or property holder
it will pay you to invest as it will
enhance the value of your place a
hundred fold more than you iuvest
if they should find either oit, gas
or water near your property. If
you are a working man it will pay
you to take shares as this will open
up a vast and a new work for you.
The merchants and business men
should invest in shares in order to
start this enterprise. Professional
men, in fact all classes of people,
should take a few shares in this
vast and new enterprise and it will
be a help to all in Grants Pass and
Josephine county. If you cannot
take 100 shares you can talc- 50 or
ten shares. Remember every dollar
will be returned to you if the com
pany fails to drill a well as agreed
upon. The stocks are non-assessable
and fully paid up as they are
used. The by-laws of the com
pany do not allow a debt to ex
ceed 1 per cent of the capital.
Scott Griffin of Grants Pass, Ore
gon, is a stockholder, a director
and the secretary of The Natural
Gas, Oil & Mining Co , who will
take leases on lands and subscrip
tion for stocks and will give any
information regarding the comrany.
The closer you investigate the
more you will help the company by
taking stock and leasing your prop
erty for the purpose of drilling one
or more wens thereupon as you
have nothing to lose but all to gam

Our pafnt will be cheaper for yon

not because the price is going to advance,
but because it will take more paint.

BOCK OP F.NOBMOt'8 RICHNESS,
Farther Details of the Illvh Strike
lttcrnily Made on Jose
phine Creek.
The bonanxa recently found by George
Bour and now owned by George and
Dave Bour, Ed Daly and Tom Johnson,
which is of such magnitude as to move
Southern Oregon people outot their tia-
dilional lethargy regarding the many
rich strikes made from week to week
alid has caused some degree of excite
ment, is located right in the bed of Jose
phine creek, the waters of which at
present prevent the possibility of ascer
taining the extent of the deposit of the
richer ore.
Josephine creek is a tributary of the
Illinois river, coming In from the south
sido, some (our or five miles below
Kerby, It is and always baa been one of
the very richest aurifeioua streams in
Southern Oregon and has been mined
some 60 years and by all the methods
known to placor mining. It is still one
of our most productive creeks and the
earlier and ' more primitive methods
have given place to the hydraulic giants.
Josephine creek isa peculiar stream in
the favt that It runs for a great portion
of its course in a bedrock cut or canyon,
flowing between two walls. The prevail
ing formation is serpentine and for many
years the creek has been carving for
itself a neat and picturesque channel.
On either side of the little canyon lie
the higher gravel bars which are the
scene of the present hydraulic opera
tions. On all sides the giants keep
throwing into the channel gravel and
debris or tailings which accumulate un
til some freshet sweeps them out to the
river. The high water of this year
shifted the gravel in the creek bed and
exposed the rich ore deposit.
The existence of this vein ol ore his
been known for many years and It was
once worked on the opposite side of the
creek from the present discovery, but
was covered op with tailings and lost.
It has been searched for many times by
a number of different men. Some of
(be searchers, it is raid, have sat down
to rest on the very spot where the dis
covery was made and on the very rock
under which the rich ore was lying.
The owners have been compelled to
suspend work for the present on their
find, as they have taken out all that is
accessible of the richer ore and the
waters of Josephine flow over the main
body. Next summer when the creek Is
low the water will be carried over the
vein in a flume and the work can be
carried on much more advantageously
at that time than now, so that it is likely
that the work will be suspended until
that time. The rim of the creek has
been found to be gold bearing rock, but
does not compare with that In the creek.
The extent of the pay chute tannot be
determined, but it seems certain that It
reaches at least across the creek, soma
60 feet, us it was once worked on the
other side. This is a very sufficient ex
tent of itself if the richness holds out for
the whole distance.
In appearance, the rock is very
peculiar and to the casual observer
resembles limestone far more than
quarts. The gold stands out of It in
lumps the size of a pea and smaller and
runs through the rock in .strings and
wires. The reports of the amount of
money taken out have probably been
somewhat exaggerated as there ha been
only a comparatively small amount of
the rock accessible, but In all likelihood
next summer will see (hem more than
verified. Fair samples of the richer ore
have yielded (10 a pound, a late of f'20,-
000 lo the ten.

The most noteworthy event in Leland
this week Is the removal of Daniel
Peterson, section foreman, at Leland,
formally years past. Mr. Peterson was
removed by the rj. P. company because
he bad the manhood to say that he
thought white uien should be employed
instead of Japs on the section at least
this is the report. Let that be as it may,
Liland loses on of its most valued
citizens, aud one of the most competent
section men on the line. We under
stand that be and bis family will remove
to Washington, where he will be em
ployed as section foreman on the Oregon
Short Line. We are pleased to bear
that Mr. Robert Crockett is the lucky
man who succeeds Mr. Peterson as sec
tion foreman at Leland. tiob is a fins,
good fellow, and wa wish bim success lu

allow large steamer to ply to Leland,
thereby giving tbe merchant of Le

consiueration the Board bave concluded
that it will be the only way t? shut out
Jones, of Portland, because Jones, he
"paya the freight, you know," and the
dear people will always tr.tde with the
man who pay the freight, unless our

Uearness Cannot ba Cared
By local application a they cannot
reach the diseased portion ot the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that I by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an Inflamed con
dition of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tub) i inflamed yon have a rum
bling sound or Imperfect bearing, and
when il la entirely closed, Deafness is
the result, and unless -the Infiamma'.ion
can be taken out and tha tube restored
to its normal condition, bearing will
be destroyed forever; nine case out of
ten are caused by Catarrh, which Is
nothing but an Inflamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh
Cure. Hend for circulars, free.
