WLJ Wednesday, May 6, 1905 THE SUMPTER MINER HIGHLAND STOCK WILL BE ADVANCED IN PRICE MAY 15th, 1 9 03 Development at the Highland Mine Justifies an Advance in the Price of Stock. It is Much More Valu able Now Than When We Placed the First Allotment on the Market Some Two Months Ago. CONSTANT DEVELOPMENT AND Every mouth will show 11 largo Increase in our ore reserves. RESULTS A crow of mou hnvo boou kept constantly nt work over since we acquired this property and tho Glasgow crosscut has now encouutorod nud fully crosscut the ledge. In this crosscut wo have opened up a body of ore sixteen feet in width carylng good commercial values. In speak I uk of commercial values wo mean ores which have a sufficient valuo to pay for tho extraction, milling and all othor incidental expenses thereto, with enough of a margin left over to pay good dividends to tho stock holders. This largo body of ore was not in tho nature of a Bur pine, we simply expected It, as tho surface developments showed this same largo body of ore, and thoro was no reason why it should uot bo encouutorod lu this crosscut and at this depth. FUTURE DEVELOPMENT Wo are now turning to drift on tho ledgo to tho west from the crosscut in ordor that we may opon up tho richer ores at a greater dopth which are found on tho surfaco throughout the Dauuockburu claim. ThlB lino' of dovolopmont, wo believe, will provo very interesting to all who are interested, or may bocomo in terested, in tho Highland mine as it will certainly opon up oro bodies rich in quality and in largo quantities. It will demonstrate that the Highland will rank as ouo of the largest producers in the district. From now on tho dovolopmont work will bo compara tively eusy and not very expenBlvo, as wo will bo drifting along on tho ledge where the ground is much easior to work than in tho country rock which encases tho voiu. FREE TRIP TO THE HIGHLAND To any one who wishes to invest a reasonable sum of money lu tho Highland m I no, wo will pay all traveling expenses to and from the initio for the purpose of his mukiug a personal examination. In offering you n free trip to tho Highland wo feel that this is proof within Itself of the valuo of this property as It stands to reason that If wo did uot havo u good mluo thoro and all that wo claim for It we could not offer you such au Inducement.
