The mining industry as a whole has til ways suffered as a result of ques tionable me thuds of promotion in a very Hinall per contuse of mining oper ations. After every great boom that picks off most of 'the sucker money, mining settles back to steady progress that is a boon to mankind. Then an other boom comes along, with its horde of gct-rich-qulek promoters who prey upon the public and drastic laws are passed to fit such cases, but they otten hurt the whulu mining In dustry. The legitimate oil business Buffers greatly from misleading- promotion schemes. Alining and oil production are two great western industries which deserve the encouragement and crtnfidenee jof the public. If the investor would use the same judgment in buying securities of these properties, that he would in any other business transaction, there would be few tales of great losses such ns wo now read of in con nection with fraudulent mining and oil promotion deals. Don't Maine these industries, blame yourselves for your own carelessness and credulity. Kditorial in Ashland Tidings. 'Alaska Men Develop Foots Crock ProiMM'ty. Cot. I). F. Mllbird and son. W. It. Millard, well known mining men who operated In the Valdez district, Alaska, 'for 20 years, are carrying n extensive i development work on the property ot tho Foots Creek Mining company in Jackson county. This property is said to lie free milling and the vein has been stripped for 4.r0 font on the sur face and a shaft sunk to a depth of 50 feet. They are now engaged In driving u long tunnel to tap the vein at depth. When vein is encountered in tho tunnel the plans are tu erect milling equipment. -Metals Kxtraction ami Itirinliig Plant In Successful 0Kntioii Tho new plant of the Metals Kxtrac tion and Kefining company, located at tho south end of (J. &. O. railway bridge, Grants Pass, was fully com pleted last week and placed in opera tion. This plant has an initial capac ity of 60 tons of black sands each 24 hours, and it is so equipped that the capacity can be doubled within 24 hours' time. .The plant treats the black sands and tailings from placer mines and recov ers teh gold and platinum values. When it is understood that ndners ; have long known that they wero losing the greater portion of their values by same being carried off in the tailings of black sand, and that heretofore there has been no known methods of making the recovery, one wilt realize that tho new plant, operated under the Croner process, which is recognized by tho United States liureaU of Mint's, will fill a long felt want, and permit what has always been wnsted in thu past being utilized. J. M. Worton of Ogden, Utah, is president of tho company, A. C. Hunt, consulting engineer, the other officials j and members of tho company being Messrs. Sbepard. Chambers, Patter son and Mr. Worton'o two sous, Clyde and Wayne Worton. On the day of the annual meeting of the Minium Bureau, Mr. Worton ex tended a special invitation to tho min ers and tho public generally to visit the plant and witness same la actual operation. The miners accepted and some L'uo of them spent a very inter esting and instructive hour in going through the plant, watching the va rious operations, and listening to the explanations given of the process by the various members of the company. Tho visit was worth while to all anil many favorable comments from ex perienced mining men as to the plant and the field for its operations were expressed to bureau officials. Hems of 4;eticrul Intercut to Miners liussia, before, the war. produaed 300.000 ounces of platinum annually from the Tral placer fields. Platinum consumption in tho United States Is about 1 fio.000 ounces an nually of which 40 per cent is used by the jewelry Industry, 25 per cent for dentistry, 20 per cent for electrical work and the remainder in tho chemi cal industries.

Indian attacks and horse racing will feature the program. - New milling methods have nuido It possible to operate low grade ores found In certain sections of the United States and Canada at a profit. Ten years ago ores of less value than ?10 a ton was ignored as it was Impossble to handle it and make a nrnfir Th best record for handling low grade ores at small cost comes from a gold mln- lug company near Juneau, Alaska. ' This company reports mining and mill Mng gold ore at a cost of 4!) cents a I ton and expects to reduce tho cost to 40 cents within a year. Thoy Called It a IxMiion Nearly every great producing mine Is compelled to go through a period (whPii it Is considered a "wildcat" and ;a "lemon." This was true of the great t'ouer d'Alene mines nnd luso of the ,Tinopah Kxtension In Nevada. In the early days of Tonopah every; body laughed at Tom l,oekhard. a prospector well known to the early residents of Nevada, when ho staked hiH claims on what he ealled the ex tension of the rich Mizpah lode of the Tonopah Mining company. Working all by himself, ho Rank a shaft and 'opened up some ore. He succeeded In getting John McKane, a famous pros pector of those days, to take an op tion on the property. McKane went to Pittsburg and succeeded in selling the property to Or. M. It. WMd. a ! rominent physician. Dr. Ward organ. Ized a syndicate of Jtao.ooo and Lock hard was paid K3.P0U for the prop erty. When McKane hean to lose faith in the mine and things assumed the well known lemon hue. melers of I lie syndicate .iu ntp.nl on Ward fov ;etthi them Into such a venture. Ward finve up his practice and came to Top. opah to oversee developments. A shaft was put down lrto feeQand a fine body of ore wns encountered. The pyndicato was succeeded by the Tnno- pun r.xionnion Mining com pa m and fi S''rtrt Artrt .... i t . . A .n.im iKvui. untierwiten by Charles M.

Fir Bt Engineering for Service WITH the twang of a clock spring, carried over a short stretch of wire one June day in 1875, came a discovery that was , to be of incalculable value to mankind. On that day the tele phone was born, and a new vocation came into being, the profession of telephone engineering. , Today, 49 years later, a host of men, successors of Bell and his single assistant, are applying their trained abilities to the complex problems of meeting the nation's demand for tele phone service. They explore the unknown and adapt the known in Science. They bring the thoroughness of specialists to the tasks of construction, operation, management. Their common objective is an improved service whereby man may substitute his voice for his physical presence in distant places. Engineered and not hap hazard effort has brought the triumphs that mark advances in the convenience of the telephone.
