here, made by direct contact with
conditions, inimeasurenhly more fa

ed In nnyother way. The bureau se
cured permami.it heiuhiuai'lers, ex
tended the sphere of Its Influence
over the six southwestern counties of
the state nnd was actively represented
as an accredited organization at the
American congress at Spokane.
Mineral exhibits were made at Sac
ramento and at tho Josephine county
fair, and a permnnent exhibit of low
grade ore hus been maintained at
511 H street. The bureau has af
filiated itself with the Pacific Coast
Mining congress and has been in
touch with our representative in con
gress, Congressman Hawley being a
member. Publication , of Mining
News has been maintained through
out the year, In all local publications.
A 'bureau of Informallon was kept
up and numerous Inquiries answered
straightforwardly as to mining con
ditions and development here.
The Butte Fails copper and silver

were opened up on the border,, and

Production ' of bullion continued
throughout tho year at the Ancient
River, Robcrtf E., and several others,
and work continued on the Mt. Reu
ben. One of the richest pockets of
rh year was that taken out of Ed
Baerlockers, and the richest prospect
of quantity was found on Josephine
creek, near the old Nell mine.
Of placers, Jim Dean, the Llano del
Oro, Lnyton, Flanagan and the Swas
tika have been in operation since the
fall rains and several others are Just
starting or are about ready to start.
A fair estimate of the amount spent
in mining development during the
year in the district is three hundred
and ten thousand dollurs.
A smelter nnd black snnd recovery

Seven mines have purchased and are
installing 'new equipment or have
contracted for the same. More metal
was relurried durlnHl'the last four

the local public has become to a great

travel.
The Portland group Is a group of
