HYDRAULIC MINES ARE
THE MOST PRODUCTIVE
Baker Leads in Output, But Josephine
County Has the Best
Placer Mines.
Ailvnncc shoots or tlic 11)11 geo
lopojil report issued by the govern
HiPiit on the wining industry hns the
f fallowing to say of Oregen:
Thero han recently boon n decline
in metallic output of Oregon, nnd so
fur ns present datn show, this decline
wns more marked in 1011 than in
1010, according to Charles G. Gale of
Jho United btntcs geological survey.
The total number of active mines
shows little change, but soino of the
larger ones have become less produc
tive. Several gold dredges nre in op
eration, but the most productive was
not worked for several mouths in
1011. The dydraulio mines arc the
most productive placers, and their
number is greatest. The deep mines
of the state arc yielding larger quan
tities of milling ore than formerly.
but the grade of ore worked has de
clined nearly one-half. This accounts
for tho falling off in total gold pro
duction. Some siliceous ore i
'shipped to the smeltors, but most of
it is milled, and comparatively little
copper ore is now boing smelted. The
output of silver in the state is small.
Baker comity is still the largest pro
ducer of gold. It includes tho dis
tricts of Baker, Cornucopia, Cracker
i reek and Mormon Basin, and be
twecn 50 nnd 00 producing mines,
about half of which are placers,
though much of the larscr proportion
of the gold is obtained from deep
mines. In gold output from placer
mining Josephine counly leads. There
nro 12 counties in the state now pro
ducing gold. In southwestern Oregon
tho placer mines are producing lurgcr
quantities than the deep mines; in
northeastern Oregon the lode mines
nre much the most productive.
According to preliminary figures
prepared by tho director of the mint.
Oregon produced, in 1011, $590,235
in gold and 09,116 fine ounces of sil
ver, valued at .$38,014, ngainst $GS1,
100 in gold and 43,800 ounces of sil
ver, valued at $23,G00, in 1910.

Glenn Martin, a southern California
nintor who piloted Ills aeroplane in
the wake of Deputy Sheriffs Phil
l'nnnnlco nnd Clifford Turpon in the
first aerial man hunt in history, laud
ed at Vtul's ranch, near here this
afternoon for gasoline. He declared
Hint Pnnimleo, Turpin and U. W. Gill,
who also accompanied the deputies,
arc flying above the hills around San
rcniniido and predicted that they
would locate the fugitives before
night.
Bach of the four aerial scouts is
armed with jxiwerful field glasses.
The squadron deployed directly over
San Fernando, each aeroplane start
ing toward one of the cardinal points
of the compass and circling high over
the hills.
Up to 2:20 o'clock Martin had cov
ered the most ground. He nunouueed
upon alighting Hint he had flown at
an average speed of b" miles an hour.
Martin said that if the fugitives
were not found before night another
flight would bo made tomorrow.
The excitement of the chnsc. he
said, appealed to him and he pre
dictod that tomorrow at least three
more birdmen would join in the hunt
Cal I. Hodgers, the first tran.-conti-nental
fiver, is one of those.
