GRIZZLY STOCK
Affords an opportunity for profitable investment that cannot be equaled in the Sumpter District. The mine is now
being actively operated and has reached a degree of development practically assuring the stability of the mine.
The ledge, carrying high values in gold, copper and silver, is over 40 feet in width. Work is being rapidly pushed,
tunneillng and sinking on the ledge, blocking out ore and adding to the pay dumps, and it may be expected that
the mine will be a producer and the company a dividend payer at an early date. Every dollar realized by the
company from the sale of treasury stock is being used for improving the property. The sale of stock will be con
tinued until the mine is a producer,. As development progresses the price of stock will be advanced.
Secure this stock now at 10 cents. That it will be worth its par value within 12 months is a conservate es
timate. Subscriptions for stock may be sent to the company direct, or to the First Bank cf Sumpter, Sumpter, Ore.

Judge Reitty points out that, as each

company would be permitted to work the

solution of this perplexing problem, and

I NEW ORE TREATMENT METHOD.
First Plant lo Be Erected at Once In
Baker City.
Charles H. Soderllng, one of the best
known California experts hi the west, is
visiting Maker in the interests of a new
method of ore treatment, which it Is said
will revolutionize the treatment of ores of
the mines ot eastern Oregon.
Mr. Soderllng is an expert metallurgist
and his present visit to Raker is for the
purpose of demonstrating the value of
Ills treatment with the ores ot thlsdlstrlct.
He has experimented with the ores from
every part of the camp, and after a thor
ough investigation he is convinced that
his "process" of ore treatment will suc
cessfully handle any of the ores in the
Raker district.
A few days ago Mr. Soderllng leased
the old electric light building at the corner
of Center and l:ourth streets, for the pur
pose of giving a public demonstration of
the new proposition. In the near future
an entire plant will be Installed in the
building, and the mining men of this dis
trict are Invited to witness the operation
of the plant and its successful treatment
of refractory ores.
While Mr. Soderllng did not disclose
his method of ore treatment It Is learned
from another source that It is as follews:
The ore Is crushed and after passing
through a 40 mesh it Is submitted to a
roasting process. Later it Is handled
through .1 system of the Huntington rolls
and then submitted to the old pan amal
gamating process. Several mining men
who are familiar In a general way with
the treatment, Insist that Mr. Soderling's
treatment is too expensive, but this the
latter denies. He claims that he can han
dle the smelting ore of this district with
better success than that of any other
known process, and he is willing to dem
onstrate his assertion by the equipment of
a Hooper mill.
Several mining men who own promis
ing properties in the Cable Cove and
Cracker Creek districts are investigating
the "new process" and If the results are
satisfactory it will mean much for this
section ot the Raker camp. Republican.
No Successor to Gen. Pass. Agent Hurlburt.
There Is good reason for believing that
no successor will be appointed to W. H.
Hurlburt, who recently tendered his res
ignation as general passenger agent of
the O. R. A N. It is in keeping with the
late policy of the Union Pacific not to re
appoint high salaried officers wherever It
is possible to carry on the business with
out them. Its plan seems to be to cut off
such offices when the opportunity offers
like In the present instance, and consoli
date the business under as few heads as
possible. There is no more reason for ap
pointing a general passenger agent than
there was for appointing a general freight
agent, when the latter office was made
vacant by the resignation of the general
freight agent. In that case the -office of
assistant general freight agent and the
office of general freight agent were con
solidated under the same head, the busi
ness being carried on by Assistant Gen
eral Agent Miller, which before required
the work of both men. The head for
both the passenger and freight depart
ments is Traffic Manager Campbell. He
can carry on the passenger business under
Chief Clerk Sutton just the same as he
carries on the freight huslnes under Agent
Miller, and save the expense of two high
salaried officers. That is the manner in
which business is carried on by the Ore
gon Short Line, the other western con
nection of the Union Pacific, and the same
method will prevail with the Union Pacific
just as soon as the present general pas
senger agent resigns. While the road
does not make a practice of deposing
efficient officials, it takes advantage of the
fact by consolidating the offices when
there is a possibility of doing so without
