p Wednesday, December 2$. iqo$ THE SUMPTER MINER THE CRACKER JACK REPRESENTS THREE ESSENTIAL QUALITIES fL SAFETY CONSERVATISM CERTAINTY m It Not Infrequently Happe ns Tlmt a Western mine in advertised with mor freedom in tlm Kast than it in at liomt'. Where thin Ih done there in ripe Indication of lack of faith. While a prophet may not be without honor except in IiIh own country, a mine must lie accorded nonor in uc own vicinity, or u ih deiicicnt in wortli. Those who live wliere inineH are made kuowithal it in not only the likelihood of valui'H that uiBkes a mine, but the character and ability of the men hack of it lllusincss management in the tlrst re(uisite, Iwcauso without keen commercial foresight the value of the property might he in douht, hut where there arc reputations to be upheld it is u foregone cohcIuhIoii that honesty in 'the directorate will le supple mented with honesty from the grass roots down, or, to bu exact, with valiieH that will be sutllcicutly protltahlu to make the property an earner for all interested in it. Those who live in Oregon, and whose interest in centered in mining, know that the management of the CKACKKIt JACK CONSOLIDATE) GOLD MINKS COMPANY Ih tried, capable and of refutation. They are not novices. They are not pushing operations on the Cracker Jack group on hearsay. What they do in based on study, investigation and fact. The Cracker Jack Is not a mine, but a group of mining claims, possessed of just as much to recommend it as may be found on the North Polo or the Cracker-Oregon. The property is "young." A little later on the company can talk of assays, andother things that wiljtemlto enhance the selling price of stock. At present it Ih a mine of opportunity. It Is a safe pluce to put one's money. It will not earn right away. If it could the stock would he selling at par, and it would no longer be a mine of opportunity for small investors. In the Hast It would be well to tell about the Cracker Creek mines, but out here in the Sumpter fields the story of these properties is too well known to call for reiietition. What has been done on the Cracker-Oregon and what is being dono in that mine most Oregon ieoplo know. Those who will investigate will II nd that the continuation of the veins (northward) carrv the values up into the Cracker Jack. This means intrinsic worth in the Cracker Jack group. It means profits later on, and prolit means dividends. This is the story in a nutshell. Three Tunnels Started Three tunnels have been Htarted on tlm Cracker .Lick. Work in two Ih being prosecuted. When these workings have Wen driven a little farther we can talk of values. Hut is it not butter to buy stock now and urotlt !v the nncoveriim of those values that every mining engineer in the Similiter llelds knows are there I Is it not wiser to put your savings in a corporation that insures the safest kind of security and be among the "charter members" when the time of dividends arrives ? To be brief: Ih it not wiser policy to secure this stock while it is low, in order to realise returns on your money when the day of profits arrives, than buyjat a higher price and receive less than you can secure now ? As One Knows, You Realize That such towns as . Sumpter are built on mining success. To talk of Kastern conservatism to you would be time wasted. Notwithstanding, because you do know, where sheer luck wins once, method and business management win u dozen lues Therefore, the safest way is to follow the successful banner. The men back the CKACKKIt JACK CONSOI.IIUTKD (iOI.I) MINKS COMPANY have 1 periled to guide them. They have had to do with the California, over in Cable Cove district: they have oe.on. nown through the Cracker-Oregon, and their excellent service for the (iolconda established a record in mining annals. Now they say that the Cracker Jack is all that any of the other mines could be, and they declare that the day is not far distant when this proierty will he one of the big producers of the district. They claim that it will I hi a dividend payer that no stockholder need Imi ashamed of, and they are selling stock in the Cracker Jack for the name reason they hold stock in the others. They do not wish to per mit anything to lag alsiut oK!iilng and equipping the property. They are not growing careless because the treasury of the company it well supplied with capital. I'hey are looking forward to the time when they will need much more money for equipment, and when that time arrives they intend to lie found prepared This company is willing that vou should reap your reward from the otriiiiigs of this mine.
