ADVISES MINERS TO GO
SOUTHERN OREGON
(From the Albany Evening Herald.)
The Grants Pass Daily Courier of
Tuesday of this week Issued five
thousand copies of a sixteen-page ed
ition, eight pages of which were de
voted almost exclusively to a resume
of the gold mining Industry of
southern Oregon since the discovery
of the precious metal In that section
of the state. The edition contains
Interesting stories of the mines of
Josephine county, many of them well
"llustrated with half-tones. These
rtlcles are of great Interest to both
nlner and Investor, and the 5000 ed
tlon should have a great Influence
u the development of the mining ln
iustry of southern Oregon.
One of the contributors to the edi
tion who has lived In that section of
Oregon for many years and has been
more or lees Interested in mining
during his residence there, estimates
that the output of gold for Josephine
county alone, from the time the yel
low metal was discovered In that
section, has been not less than $135,
000,000. This is a large sum, but
In the light of common knowledge
easily attainable anywhere in south
ern Oregon, these figures do not
seem at all exaggerated. Of course,
there Is no way of telling just how
much gold has been taken out for
the reason that the section was pros
pected and sluiced many years be
fore there was a bank In the Rogue
River valley, or any of the other
conveniences of modern commerce.
Then every miner was his own bank
er, his own secret service man and
private detective, to use The Cour
ier's expression.
In spite of the great quantltlen of
gold that have been taken out In
Josephine and Jackson counties, It
Is singular that most of it has been
taken out In pockets and from the
placer diggings, and that as a matter
of fact, there has been very little
practical or systematic mining In the
district. Thb has perhaps been due
somewhat to the benevolence of na
ture In the matter of climatic con
ditions. A living was easily obtained
and there has not been the same Im
petus for exploitation which has
characterized some of the other min
ing districts of the country.
It is a singular fact that many of
the gold discoveries made In Jose
phine county from time to time for
many years past which hava caused
little or no excitement whatever,
would have resulted In a stampede
lr Colorado, Nevada or Alaska.
Many of those discoveries have been
ptosecuted little beyond the cleanlns
out of the pocket, containing all the
way from a thousand to five thons
and dollars' worth of the precious
metal, when the lucky prospector left
to spend his pile and the excitement
died out without further Investiga
tion. There Is little quostlon but that
southern Oregon, and particularly
Josephine county, will eventually be
cdino one of the most active nnd Im
portant gold mining districts on the
Pacific coast. There Is little doubt
us to the fact that there are great
quantities of the metal there; It Is
simply a matter of securing the nec
essary capital and the application of
practical knowledge In mining. To
lie sure there aro some few quartz
mines In the vicinity which have been
developed to n limited extent along
practical lines. But for tho most
part the gold-hunter of southern
Oregon has confined himself to the
placer diggings and pocket hunting.
The Courier Is to be congratulated
in. on Its enterprise In presenting the
hpl.tidld mining number of last
Tuesday, and the people of Grants
Pass and Josephine county, ns well
as all southern Oregon for that, mat
ter, mo greatly Indebted to The
Courier for this service. It will
doubtless do more to attract, the
practical miner and the necessary
money for tho development of the
mining Industry of that section than
anything else which might have been
done. It s in this way that the live
newspaper does more for the ;
opmeiit of a community than
other one single force.

Keeping the Kidneys Well llaa Kept
Many tirauts 1'uwt People
Well
Many Grants Pass people find that
bad weather brings on a dull pain in
the back, or rheumatic aching, neu
ralgia, nervousness, irritability, and
weakness. If, when you get wet or
cold, it "settles on the kidneys," and
there is a shivery, chilly sensation
in the back, it shows kidney weak
ness, which is often the beginning
of disease. ' Doan's Kidney Pills
should be used persistently until the
chilly feeling Is gone, and the flow
of urine is natural. Doan's Kidney
Pills have saved Grants Pass people
much suffering.
J. A. Niday, 303 1 street, Grants
Pass, Ore., says: "Last winter 1 was
troubled greatly by disordered kid
neys. The kidney secretions passed
too frequently, especially at night,
and during cold weather my back
became lame. The contents of one
box of Doan's Kidney Pills corrected
the kidney weakness and removed
the lameness In my back. This rem
edy is worthy of the strongest en
dorsement." For sale by all dealers. Price 50
cents. Foster-MUburn Co., Buffalo,
