Address BERNARD FLYNN, Sumpter, Oregon. F GENERAL " BROKERAGE b BUSINESS Money in mining, the big fortunes, is made by developing Dromising prospects into mines. I have properties on my list that can be bought from 5,000 to 25,000 that can be made worth 100,000 to 500,000 by the ex penditure of from 10,000 ro 50,000. This list includes both QUARTZ AND PLACER MINES. I have also a few choice tracts of Oil Land in the Malheur basin that can now be bought at a very low figure. Or, I can locate you on government land in the same district, that may be just as good. Remember OIL HAS ALREADY BEEN STRUCK. Write me what you want and I will supply you with just the kind of proposition you are looking for. fc & fc fc f j E. SANDERSON SMITH MINING BROKER Sumpter, Oregon. a i 35
