Another Southern Oregon mining property, heretofore classed as a promising prospect, has developed in to a miue with a certainty of becom ing one of the big gold producers of this district. This mine is the Grouse Mountain, located ou Grouse mountain, four miles southeast of Grants Pass, and in the Mt. Baldy district. This mine was owned by A. L. Smith, William Gaut, E. A. Edgar aud I. J. Hunter. Mr. Gaut is au engineer on the Southern Pacific, Mr. Edgar a farmer and Mr. Hunter a placer miner. Mr. Smith Is a practical quartz miner, and ho had charge of the de velopment of the property, bis part ners contributing their share of the expense. The property consists of a group of claims on which are two well defined veins, one of six feet and the other of 12 feet. The smaller has given an average SFsay of f20 aud the larger one of (15 to the ton. Iu the six foot veil! is a stringer of six to 13 inches that has given assays of f.'TU.H. up to flfiOO per ton. The mining men of Spokane being noted for knowing a good thing when they see it, the Grouse Mountain claims came to the notice of Lewis P. Larsen, son of Louis Laisin, one of the niillit uarics of Spokane, and one of the biggest miue operators in the West, and so welt pleased was be with the showing that he bonded the properly last spring of Mr Smilh and associate.

This work has been contin ued steadily siuco last spring, with so sa'islanlory results, that Mr. Larseu has not i lied Mr. Smith nud nssociatu that he will take tie property aud make the final payment promptly on the dale it is due.
