THE MEXICAN TIIK stalesniiiuslii) of .Secretary of Stale Unfiles never iippi-Hici to belter mlvinitiiift' 1 hiiu ill bis recent note to Mexico, concern ing a treaty of ainily nnil coiiiineree. With n rare combination ot i'ii'inness mill tacl, of insistence upon American rights, with recondi tion of Mexicon's internal difficulties ami perplexing prolilcins, tlio American secretary of slate clears the'stage, for a final settlement be I ween these two counli'ies. ' Only those who understand the Mexican temperament, can under stand the tentative refusal of these overtures by President Obrejron. What the Mexican president says in effect is Hurt Mexico is willing to reconnize American richts, but is not willing to say so. To tie Anirlo Snxon mind this appears to be the most transparent sort of evasion, si slippery, hypocritical attitude, which renders mutual confidence im possible. If Mexico means to play fair, what possible obpection can there be to ratification of a treaty based upon fairness? This is the in evitable question, from this side of the border, and it is a question which only Hit; student of Mexican psychology can answer. Mexican diplomacy is built npnii' indirection, sophistry and double dealing. Mexican statesmanship is honeycombed with (raft. I'VankncsH and straight, shooting, in the American sense, is unknown the other side of the border. There is every reason to believe President Obregon is honest, that li is sincerely anxious to play fair with the United Stales, but ho faces a condition in his own country, which renders such it policy til most impossible. Tin; ( 'arranii policy-of hold up, of anti-Americai propaganda, established a system of easy money- for a horde of higl binders, who will be at Obregou's throat the moment lie suggests a treaty with the United States which will end their graft. More than that. Such a situation in 1 lie United States could lie easily solved by a genuine leader, for the rank and file in this coun try can always be depended upon to follow what is morally right and fight what is morally wrong. J lut this is not the case in Mexico!:', The moral sense of Mexico as a whole, doesn't function, ignorance among the masses combined with dishonesty among the leaders places any would be reformer at a fatal disadvantage front the start. Only reformation through evolution, n matter of years rather than days, can materially effect this obstacle to a genuine renppronchmcnl between the two countries. ' So while a solution of the Mexican problem, without war, the only solution in which a majority of the American people are inter ested, t ill seems far distant, -it is cheering to note that Hie present administration has attacked the problem, from the onlv angle which promises any improvement in the future over the past. Jltighex policy is realistic, practical, fair, and tit the same time it holds that firmness and dctcrniinnlion, which is csesnlial to tiny constructive progress. If any policy, divorced from force, can settle this Mexican problem one feels the Hughes' policy will, RipplinRhijinQs THE PROPHETS. IlKtivisc old prophets of the ring now figure in the daily news, and they explain, like everything, why Carp will win or why he'll lose. These seventh sons of seventh sons are always here to guide us right, whenever. pugilistic ones are scheduled for a drasticfight. The mantle of Kli.jnh falls upon the wise men of the ring, and every dead game sport recalls Hurt prophet-eering has its sting. For if the prophets all unite to say that Jack will win the scrap, and Jack is bcalcn in the fight, how shall each prophet save his map! The prophets told me years ago, that Willard had a lead pipe cinch, and nl'lcr seven rounds or so, poor lack would be loo dead to pinch. And so I wagered all my means, according to the prophets' rede, and when the winners go their beans my bank account was gone to seed. The prophets said, in days of old, that Corbel t was the prince of blows, and lie would knock Fitzsimmons cold, among Nevada's ghastly snows. And so, lo bet on Jim's success, I put my watch and cow in soak; conceive my subsequent distress I never was so badly broke. I shall not bet on Jack or Carp, no matter what the prophets say; while they predict I'll tune my harp, and spring a mad and merry lay.

Clark, President, Gold Rldgo Mining & Development Assoch atlon, Medford, Oregon. Dear Sir: Pursuant to your 'request 1 beg to submit you herewith my re port on the Gold Ridge Mine. You will understand that I have not had time as yet to thoroughly sampje tho property, nor make up accurate tonnage data and assay maps, but I am pleased to give you my conclu sions as far as I have gone. Summary I regard the Gold Itldge Mine as one of the most promising gold properties which I havo ever examined uud one bearing all the Indications of both , ,,m,. l, ,. ,.... DossiblR to nlnselv estimate tlie ton-1 (. It t tin. nago and values without spending con siderably more time than Is at present at my command, but by going thor oughly through the mine, by doing some panning, anil by presuming that tho reports given ine by the men work ing .there, are reasonably correct, I arrive at about the following figures: Assuming the ore shoot on the 400 level to be 100 feet long, averugo 3 ft. , . , ,...,. . woe ami ex e u.uK .u .o urn . - iae, gives luuu urns . p.uuuuiy . . . . , AHRiimn tli a nrfriilltf niinrl?. wliifll . t , " . , ' , has been left as the foot wall to have , an equal thickness, would give "1000 tons of possibly $10.00 ore. Assume tlio ore shoot extends down .'00 feet to the No. Level as surface winnings on tlio vein would indicate then the above tonnage would be doit bleU.(, Assumo that tlio projected tunnel from the mill level, 300 feot bolow No. 0 Level strikes tlio same ore shoot then that would add 12,000 tons moro. Or about as follows on tho known ore shoot: Above No. 41000 tons at $:!0.00, $120,000.00; (in Bight) 4000 tons at $ tO.00, $40,000.00$ 1 00,000.00. llotween 4 and (i 1000 tons at $30.00 $120,000.00; (probable) 4000 tons at $10.00, $40,000.00 $100,000.00. lletwcen C and 9-0000 tons at $30.00, $180,000.00 (possible) 0000 tons I t $ 1 0.00, $00,000.00 $240,000.00. Kurt her exploration of this vein may reveal more ore shoots or ftevel 'ipment work on the other veins (of which there aro several on tho pro lorty) may add materially to this ton nage. It must lie understood that tho above figures are based merely on observation and are not conclusive, but even discounting them f0 per cent would still leavo It a very attractive proiiosltlon, ,aud 1 am very glad to endorse this property as having great possibilities. Location Tho Gold Ridge Mine is located about three miles by good road from Gold Hill, Jackson county, Oregon, in tlio NUVi sec: 3, T. 37 S., R. 2 W., and consists of'-8i lodo quartz claims secured by location and purchase and 120 acres of deeded land secured by! Iiiirclia.se, or about 280 acres in all. The neighboring properties within i the radius of about a mile all are, or have been producers, sonic of them iiuously so.

The Kanes Creek Placers ami the China Gulch Placers, both of which were phenomenally rich In the early days, head against two sides of this property. Tlie Millionaire, Sylvanito and Gold Hill Pocket which is credited with having produced $700.0(10 at grass roots, are within a mile and a half to tlie northeast. History I am Informed that the property was discovered by the placor minors pan ning up the hills in search of the source of the gold In Kanes Creek and China Gulch. For n good many years, 1 understand, the property was worked as a pocket vein and numerous small imckets wero taken from the surface with mortal' and pan. About 1914 n small 3-stamp prospect ing mill was Installed and some stup ing was done In the shallow workings near the top of the hill. The ore was sledded around .the IMiint of the ridge to the other slope of the hill where the small mill was located: there a supply of water was collected 111 a dirt reservoir and about two days a week mill run was ob tained. The record ol this operation is shown by tho I'. S.

Five tons of ore shipped to the smel ter at Keanett brought net returns of J41S.0O. so 1 conclude. the value of the ore milled was very goOd. it was seen, however, that it wa3 necessary to put in a modern mill and develop the mine on a larger scale, bu a company was incorporated, and the driving of lower levels uad the erne Hon of a mill is now under way. Vein The vein occurs between andesltic liorphyry and slate. Strike nlxjut N 50 degrees E. and dip about 70 degrees X. It varies in width from 2 to li I feet. The Blaty material composing I the footwall of tho vein near the stir tQ becoming highly .. ' . . . . ... i siliceous with depth and altering Into a dark blue argilllte tiuurtz.

When last examined, Juno 1-ith, the face showed f feet of very good ore in tile face, with numerous stringers and hunches of quartz carrying visible gold and some specimens, and a 22- inch drill hole had been driven Into tho foot wall and panned in (1-Inch sections. This showed sulphides and free gold in abundance for Its entire depth. At a noint 200 feet below tho 4 1 n..l .. l,u,. l,...nl' 1..,., !, I...r. started; the No. ti Level. This should cut. tho vein by cross-cutting about 125 feet and by drifting west on the vein, will define tlie eastern limits of the ore shoot cut above. From tlie No. ti Level, a gravity In cline is being constructed to convey the ore to the mill, 300 ft. bolow, and 700 ft. distant. The mill is a modern 5-stamp amal gamating id til with a Will'ley concen trating table, and the tailings will bo stored and treated with cyanide it deemed advisable later on. Natural Advantages Kasy ot access; being practically on the main road three miles from town. Equable climate; no snow to con tend with in winter, rendering It nn Ideal winter mining district. Excellent timber for all( purposes on the properly. Springs which should develop ample milling water. Electric liower within half n mile and powor poles already erected to tho property. " A depth of about S00 feet on the vein possible by tunneling with short crosscuts. No pumping or hoisting I costs. Assays No systematic assaying has ,heen done on tho property although niiiner- oils samples have been assayed. They .,, ,, ., . ,.,, . have run n l the w;iv front $1) 0 to have run all tho way from $10.00 to $0000.00. Being free gold. In places coarse, It Is more or less difficult to arrive at nn accurate average assay except by a very largo number of samples, and so far the development work has been directed largely by tlie observation of panniugs. Rich specimen rock is of frequent occurrence in the vein showing native gold, and occasionally tcllurides, prob ably sylvanite and rarely calaverlte. In conclusion, I will say that 1 have no hesitancy in recommending tills property ns having nil tho appearaneo of making a good dividend-paying mine. Respectfully submitted, WALTER H. KOIUNSOX.
