Wednesday, January 6, 1904 THE SUMPTER MINER THE CRACKER JACK REPRESENTS THREE ESSENTIAL QUALITIES 41 -A SAFETY CONSERVATISM CERTAINTY 4- A It Not Infrequently Happe ns That a Western mine in advertised with more freedom in tint Kant than it 1m at home. Where thin is done there is ripe indication of lack o( faith. While u prophet may not be without honor except in IiIh own rountry, a mine mnttt lie accorded nonor in us own vicinity, or u ih uencient in worth. Those who live where mines are made know, that it in not only the likelihood of values that makes a mine, but tho character mid ability of the men back of it Business management in the tlrnt requisite, because without keen commercial foresight the value of the property might belli doubt, but where there are reputations to be upheld it is u foregone conclusion that honeHty in the directorate will he supple mented with honeHty from tho grass roots down, or, to Ikj exact, with values that will be Hiitlicieutly profitable to make the property an earner for all interested in it. Those who live in Oregon, Btid whoso interest is centered in mining, know that the management of the CKAGKKR JACK CONSOLIDATE GOM) MINKS COMI'ANY is tried, capable and of reputation. They are not novices. They are not pushing operations on the Cracker Jack group on hearsay. What they do is 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 Pole or the Cracker-Oregon. The property is "young." A little later on the company can talk of assays, and other things that will tend to enhanco the selling price of slock. At present it is a mine of opiiortiiiiity. It is a safe place to put one's money. It will not earn right away. If it could the stock would be selling at par, and it would no longer be a mine of opportunity for small investors. In the East it would be well to tell about the Cracker Creek mines, but out here in the Suniptcr fields the story of these trnertics is too well known to call for reetition. What has been done on the Cracker-Oregon and what is being done in that mine most Oregon Kople know. Those who will investigate will llnd that the continuation of the veins (northward) carry the values up into the Cracker Jack. This means intrinsic worth in the Cracker Jack group. It means protlts later on, and profit means dividends. This is the story in a nutshell. Three Tunnels Started Three tunnels have been Htarted on tha Cracker Jack. Work in two is being prosecutcd.MtWIieu these workings have been driven a little farther we can talk of values. Hut is it not better to huv stock now and nrollt hv the uncoverlinr of those values that every mining engineer in the Similiter fluids knows are there ? Is it not wiser to put your savings in a corporation that insures the safest kind of security and he among the "charter members" when tho time of dividends arrives ? To be brief;: Is it not wiser policy to secure this stock while it in low, in order to realize returns on your money when tho day of protlts arrives, than buy.at a higher price and receive less than you can secure now 1 As One Knows, You Realize That such towns as Sumpter aru built on mining success. To talk of Kastern conservatism to you would be time wanted. Notwithstanding, because you do know, where sheer luck wins once, method and business maniiuement win a dozen ines Therefore, the safest wav is to follow the successful banner. The men back the CKAGKKK JACK CONSOI.IDATKD (iOU) MINKS COMPANY have J pernco to guide the.ui. 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 lie, and they declare that the day is not far distant when this property will be one of the big producers of the district. They claim that it will be a dividend payer that no stockholder need be ashamed of, and they are selling stock in the Cracker Jack for the same reason they sold stock in the others. They do not wish to r mit anything to lag about opening and equipping the property. Thev are not growing careless because the treasury of the company is well supplied with capital. 1'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 you should reap your reward from the etrniugs of this mine, lie one of the wealthy investors of the region if you like. The pioneers of other camps made their money through correct invest ments. They didn'tmake it by wondering; nor by blaming fate for missed opiiortunities. They sought likely proposition's and linked their fortunes with them. It is simple enough if vou will but take the time to investi gate. The property is with you, and the reputations of the men who offer vou this stock are represented by three monuments that will withstand much discussion the California, the Cracker-Oregon and the (iolconda. You know bettor than you can be told that, once valuable ore or extensive ore bodies chance to bo oiened, the stock has a skyward tendency, and it generally stays up there. When the Cracker Jack has tacit devel oped you will be positive that It la worth your confidence, but the stock will be beyond its bargain eriod. Now your opportunity Is that of becoming interested in one of the best proerties in the district excepting none. Grasp that opportunity. Buy stock. Buy it today. If you doubt, there Is the prerty, and in the same neighborhood are the substantial testimonials to the worth and integrity of the men back of it. If the Cracker Jack group could be exhibited in New York, the necessary funds would be forthcoming in a single day. Were you East you would appreciate this truth. Then why not appreciate now V What you invest now will help tho Cracker Jack, and the development of the Cracker Jack will help you after a while. Tho benefit is mutual and the reward will Ihj worthy. Should you wisli to procure a copy of the company's prospectus, address any of the nfllces named below. Also make your checks payable to LEE S.
