THE SUMPTER MINER
THE CRACKER JACK
REPRESENTS THREE ESSENTIAL QUALITIES
SAFETY
CONSERVATISM
CERTAINTY
Y
T
It Not Infrequently
Happe
ns
That a Western mine is advertised with more freedom in the Kant than it Ih
nt home. Where thin in done there is ripe indication of hick of faith. While
u prophet may not be without honor except in IiIh own country, a mine must
oe accorueu nonor in nn own vicinuy, or u ib uencient in worm.
Those who live where mines are made kuoWthat it is not only the likelihood of values that makes
a mine, but the character ami ability of the men back of it. IHuslness management is the first
requisite, because without keen commercial foresight the value of the property might be in doubt, hut where
there are reputations to be upheld it is a foregone conclusion that honesty in the directorate will lie supple
mented with honesty from the grass roots down, or, to be exact, with values that will be eutllcicntlv profitable
to make the property an earner for all Interested in it.
Those who live in Oregon, and whose interest is centered in mining, know that the management of the
CRACKER JACK CONSOLIDATED GOLD MINKS COMPANY 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 in "young."
A little later on the company can talk of assays, and other things that will tend to
enhance the selling price of slock. At present it is a mine of opportunity. 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 (or small investors. In the KaBt 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 reitetition.
What has been done on the Cracker-Oregon and what is being done in that mine most Oregon people know.
Those who will investigate will And 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 profits Inter on, and profit
means dividends. This is the story in a nutshell.
Three Tunnels
Started
Threo tunnels havo been otartod on the Cracker Jack. Work In two is !olng
prosecuted. When these workings I have ibeen driven n little farther we can talk
of values. Hut is it not belter to buv stock now and nrolit bv the uncoverlnir of
those values that every mining engineer in the Sumpter fields knows are there ? 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 V Tn be briefer Is it not wiser policy to secure this
stock while it is low, in order to realixo returns on your money when the day of profits arrives, than bny.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 Kasteru
conservatism to you would Iw time wanted. Notwithstanding, because you do
know, where Bheer luck wins once, method and business mauiitfcineut win a
dozen iiich Therefore, the safest way is to follow the successful banner. The men
back the CRACKER JACK CONSOLIDATED GOLD MINKS COMPANY have
rrcr nee to guide them . They have had to do with the California, over in Cable Cove
district; they have imh.ui:. nown through the Cracker-Oregon, and their excellent service for the (Solcouda
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 property will lie one of the big producers of
the district. They claim that it will he a dividend payer that no stockholder need Imj ashamed of, and they are
selling stock in the Cracker Jack for the snmu reason they sold stock in the others. They do not wish to per
mit anything to lag about oening and equipping the nroerty. They are 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 equipment, and when that time arrives they intend to Imj found prepared This
company is willing that von should reap your reward from the eiruings of this mine. He one of the wealthy
investors of the reirlon if you like. The pioneers of other camps made their money through correct invest
ments. They didn't mako it by wondering, nor by blaming fate for missed opHirtiiniticH. They sought likely
proositions ami linked their fortunes with them. It is simple enough if you will but take the time to investi
gate. The proerty 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 (iolcouda.
You know better than you can he told that, once valuable ore or extensive on bodies chance to be opened,
the stock has a skyward tendency, and it generally stays up there. When the Cracker Jack has been devel
oped you will be positive that it is worth your confidence, hut the stock will be beyond its bargain period. Now
your opportunity is that of becoming interested in one of the best properties In the district excepting none.
Grasp that opportunity. Huy stock, liny it today.
If you doubt, there is the prwrty, 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 ill New York, the necessary funds would he forthcoming
in a single day.
Were you Kast you would appreciate this truth.
Then why not appreciate now ?
What you invest now will help the Cracker Jack, and the development of the Cracker Jack will help you
after a while. The latin-fit is mutual and the reward will be worthy.
