THE SUMPTER MINER
11
SEVEN DEVILS COPPER.
Mining Men are Becoming In
terested There.
It is apparent from the number of ar
rivals in this city en route to the copper
region of the Seven Devils country, that
extensive work will be done there this
summer. Several of the recent arrivals
have come from San Francisco, where
they have spent the winter month. Dur
ing their stay In that city some of them
have succeeded in interesting caplt.il in
their claims and will prosecute extensive
development work throughout the hum
mer. Those of this ctty interested in mines
and mining have long known of the ex
istence of copper in paying quantities in
the Seven Devils, but after Investigating
the country have come to the conclusion
that owing to the Inaccessibility of the re
gion transportation facilities would never
be obtained to haul the product of the
mines to a smelter, so have not Interested
themselves much in the country. Samp
les brought out from the district to be as
sayed have gone 25 to 00 per cent In cop
per, with small amounts of gold and
traces of silver. Some of the samples
have been almost pure native copper. It
Is alleged that the values obtained were
equal to those of the famous Mnntnm,
Michigan and Verde mine, and tint a
far as ledges were concerned, there were
entire mountains, practically speaking, of
ore.
J. M. Harrison, who owns the Copper
King properties, is the latest arrival in
this city from the Ray City, and he is
highly elated over this summer's pros
pects. Mr. Harrison received his school
ing in copper mining in the mines of
Michigan, and when seen last evening
said he had never seen such a deposit of
copper.
"More men," said he, "have become
fabulously rich from copper mines than
from gold, and yet little heed Is being
given to the Seven Devils copper regions
by those having plenty of money to be
used as a nucleus for the accumulating of
an Immense fortune. It Is true the coun
ts rough and affords no transportation fa
cilities, but let even one corporporation
with funds enough Insure the permanent
working of one mine, and history will re
peat Itself. It has been amply proven to
the satisfaction of the railroads that there
is more money in hauling ore, where there
is enough of It, than any other commod
ity, and In these days of modern engineer
ing, almost impossible feats are accom
plished by railroad builders. Let the in
ducements be great enough and they
would build a double track to the moon,"
The mining season does not open up in
the Seven Devils before June, so Mr.
Harrison will simply rest on his oars until
the trails are open. Arrangements for an
outfit have been made and when the time
arrives, several parties will arrive from
San Francisco to accompany him on the
trip. If his representations are found to
be true, about 530,000 will be expended
during the summer.
"The copper Is undoubtedly in the dis
trict, and if the proper people become in
terested in it, its future is ginranteed,"
said Mr. Harrison. Porthnd Telegram.

(will furnish private board to a few
desiring such, at my residence nn North
street, near Center. Mrs. C. E. Duck
worth. Miss Rlchardson.the mllliner,announces
that from the latter part of this week she
will be constantly receiving new pattern
hats every few days throughout the
