Those who live In Oregon, and whose interest is centered in mining, know that the management of the CItACKKIt JACK CONSOl.IDATKD (U)I.I) MINKS COMPANY in tried, capable and of reputation. They are not novices. They are not pushing operations on the Cracker .lack group on hearsay. What they do Ih based on study, investigation and fact. The Cracker Jack Ih not a mine, but a group of mining claims, possessed of just an much to recommend it as may he found on the North Pole, or the Cracker-Oregon. The. property Ih "young." A little later on the company can talk of assays, and other things that will tend to enhnnco thu selling price of slock. At present it Ih a mine of opportunity. It is u safe place to put oiio'h money. It will not earn right nway. If it could the stock would lie Helling at par, and it would no longer bo a mine of opportunity for small investors. In the Kast it would lie well to tell about the Cracker Creek mines, but nut here in the Sumpter Ileitis the story of these properties is too well known to call for reK'tition, What has been donu on the Cracker-Oregon and what Ih being done in that mine most Oregon people know. Those who will investigate will Hud that the continuation of the veins (northward) carry the values up into the Cracker .lack. This means intrinsic worth in thu Cracker .lack group. It means prnllts later on, and prollt means dividends. This is the story in a nutshell. Three Tunnels Started Three tunnels have been otartud on thu Cracker Jack. Work in two is lnilng prosecuted. When these workings i ha vebeen driven a little farther we can talk of values. Jiut is it not better to buv stock now anil nrotlt bv the uncovc rinir of those values that every mining engineer in (ho Sumpter fields 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 the time of dividends arrives V To ho briefj: Is it not wiser policy to secure this stock while it is low, in order to realize returns on your money when the day of profits arrives, than huy(at 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 Kastcru conservatism to you would lie time wasted. Notwithstanding, because you do know, where sheer luck wins once, method ami business management win a dozen mes Therefore, thu safest wav is to follow the successful banner. The men back thu CItACKKIt JACK CONSOMDATKD GOLD MINKS COMPANY have 1 i per nee to guide them. They have ha 1 to do with thu California, over in Cable Cove district: they have oeun:.. nown through the CraekerOregon, and their excellent service for the (iolcontla established a record in mining annals. Now they say that the Cracker .lack is all tlmt any of thu other mincH could be, and they declare that thu 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 lie ashamed of, and they are selling stock in the Cracker Jack for the same reason they sold stock in thu others. They do not wish to er mlt anything to lag about owning and equipping thu property. Thuv aru not growing careless because the treasury of the company is well supplied with capital. They are looking forward to the time when they will need much more money for eouipmeiit, and when that time arrives they intend to Ihj found prepared This company is willing that vou should reap your reward from thu eirniugs of thin mine.
