Portland Papers Comment 011
Sucker Creek Gold Find
The story of a marvelously rich golfl
strike iu Southern Oregcu is interest
ing not ouly to the persons who thus
-tumbled upon it, but tofcll peoplo of
Oregon. It is a piece of great good
luck to the finders, but it is also a
lucky nnd valuable incident for Ore
gon. It will attract wide attention to
this state nud to Southern Oregon in
particular. Since one such ledge has
beeu fouud, may there uot bo others?
True, such a discovery always start-:
out a largo number of pro; peotors,
most of 'whom nre doomed to disap
pointment, but the general result w ill
be good; it will mean more work,
mnro effort, Jiorn consumption of pro
ducts, more faith iu Oregon's mineral
wealth, nnd, diululcss, more Oregon
gold.
Some people, insist dogmatically
that there is 110 such thing iu the
world as luck or chance; that every
person gets ultimately just what he
plaus aud woiks rightly for nud de
serves. But the truth of this line
theory is uc t discernible in such an
occurrence as this. For many years
placer gold was extracted in large
quantities from tho beds of streams lu
this vicinity, 011 both sides of this
ridge, mid ic was known that there
must bo a rich ledge iu that ridge,
from which tho placer gold came.
Doubtless the region has been pros
pected by ma y a more or less hopeful
miner; doubtless weeks in the nggro
gata of tramping though those hilis
has genu unrewarded ; nud yet nt last
a hoy, ont limit iug, and with 110
t ought of finding gold, niseovers it
iu quantities cropping out of the sur
face, so abundant nnd easy to obtain
that it is suicl one family of seven
persous mcrtaied out 23,000 in a
week. One need not call this luck or
chnuce, if he is determined that there
is no such thiug; hut certainly the
chief beuotlcliirirn did uot plan aud
work for this result.
This incident shows tint t - Oregon
hi'S not us yet been diligently nud
thoioughly prospected. If the stories
told concerning this ledge ore true, it
may produce millions, and there may
be, nnd 110 donbt are, other ledges ns
rich yet to be discovered. Oregon's
mineral wealth is ns yet mostly un
discovered. It muy be reasonably
expected that its gold production,
already much larger than it is given
credit for, will steadily lurcensn for
many years. Portland Journal.

here, wether you bring; her or not.
j j Jt
The difference in the cost of a
Schloss-niade Suit and that made by the
"uietchatit tailor" will be enough to
open her eyes to the possibilities for
money saving. Just think, we sell a
suit like either of those s'lown in the
picture at so little a price as
$12.50
The "merchant tailor" would want
to charge $2$ for a suit not so good in
fit, style or quality. Here is a clear sav
ing of $11 50,. which your wife can find
good use for in adding to her own ward
robe. No wonder she is bout ou break
ing you of the "merchant tailor" habit.
