Wednesday, September 10, 1902 TH& 'SUMPTER MINER VV1' ' J r j X r : DREDGE FOR CANYON CREEK. Pomeroyi 'Will Put to Another Machine Over John Day Way A correspondent at John Day .writes the Portland Telegram that another monster dredge, similar to the one in operation on the North Fork o( the John Day river, will probably be started in a xhort time, and utter completion be put to work on Canyon creek, a tributary of the North Fork. It in understood that a good deal of Portland money wilt be be hind the enterprise, eastern Oregon men putting up the balance. If the proposed dredge is as large as the plant now work ing on the North Fork, they will have to put up about ilL'5,000. Thomas Pomeroy A Sons, the well known constructors of the Pomeroy dredge, are to build the Canyon creek affair, whose construction will take most of a year. The sands of Canyon creek, which is n swift, turbulent mountain stream along a great part of its course, are said to Imj heavily impregnated with placurdiiHt, with the creek bed eader of access than the river bottom of the North Fork. After a short stopnige becauxe of scar city of fuel, the dredgo now in oeration has rcMimcd work, and is handling from HOO to 1(100 cubic yards daily. The ca pacity is far greater than this, however, as it is possible when running at full seed for a dozen buckets o revolve every minute, each bucket raising sev eral cubic yurds of gravel. The dredge has been running less thau forty days, and the company does not know accu rately what the saving when the plant is going full blast will be. Panning of the coarse gravel and mud now being worked shows gold in paying quantities, and ex amination of the gravel after it has pass ed down the long sluice does not show many specks in the tullings, so it is fig ured that the saving Is very large. The showing, at any rate, made by this dredge since sturtiiig up has ligured largely in influencing the company to build the Canyon creek proositinn. An idea of the probable profits from the Nortli Fork dredge can be gained readily from reference to similar enter prises in the Northwest. Three little uf fairs at Han nock City, Montunn, earn ahout filOO a day, while u dredue at Boise, Idaho, mukes 1300. It is thought the North Fork dredge surpasses any of these, as it is the biggest plant of the kind in the Northwest, and hus fairly easy ground to work in. In days gone by Chinamen with pans made fair wages working the ground where the Pomeroy machine is. but tliu socksnre too Hue to encourage placer oerations on anything except a large scale. If the Pomeroy dredge worked every duy in the year for 100 years, handling dirt at its full capacity of thousands of yurds a day, it would hurdly exhaust the placer bearing bed of the North Fork and tributaries throughout the 10 odd miles for which concessions have been obtain . ed. The ultimate profit on a plant which Wist an eighth of a million dollars can be dimly estimated from this, while the in centive to construct a dredger for every stretch of placer bearing bottom obtain able, can readily be seen. As there are stores of creeks and rivers in 'eastern Oregon with sands like those of the tur bulent Nortli Fork, placer dredging seems likely to become one of the big things of the future for eastern Oregon. HwanhoMt Rock Goat S5I,N0. Thomas Clark, who recently purchas ed the Humboldt group of mine in the Greenhorn mountain district, half a utile from the new city of Greenhorn, came down from the hills yesterday on busi ness. He brought withjiim a quantity of magnificent specimens from the Hum - boldt. whicli are arnoitii the irottirt eWfc.1.1 w..;i- ..... :.i.iw,1i v.ml""y V:.

The ore was taken from a twelve-inch pay streak along the foot wall side of a three-foot ledge, at a point only thirty feet from the surface. The specimens are on exhibition at Palmer Brothers' jewelry store in this city and are attracting considerable attention. Mr. Clark also Dossessei a KM ounce vial of gold dust which he secured from pouncung upanu punning a lew oi me smaller specimens. The Humboldt lies surrounded bv such well known paying mines as the Virginia, Black Hawk and I. X. I.. The Virginia is now being equipped with a ten-stamp mill and orders have been placed for a plant of equal capacity for the I. X. 1.. The Black Hawk's five-stamp mill is running steadily on rich ore. Mr. Clark is high ly elated over the sensational showing made on his mine and correctly lielievea that the Humboldt will prove a bona nxa. He has a force of men employed sinking on the vein, and if the pay holds out as it promises, he will shortly arrange for the erection of u mill. Herald. M I N HOW TO BECOME INTERESTED. We will prove by reasouableiirgumeut and establislifcd facts that the oinrtuii ttlcs wo" offer to become jMisscssed of large interests in Oregon mining proper tics cannot lie surassed by anyone. It will not require u fortune, but to the contrary a very small amount of money. Any person having a few dollars to in vest in an enterprise which has the most encouraging features, and where 'one person has no siiieriority or advantage over another, will And by addressing the undersigned that these conditions exist. This opportunity will not last long. Tiik Advanck Mining Co., 1Kk Box F, Sumptcr, Oregon. NOTICK FOR PUBLICATION.
